VIDEO – POET Technologies $PTK.ca Launch Of LightBar For Data Centers “Is An Inflection Point For The Company”

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 6:10 PM on Tuesday, December 8th, 2020

Understanding the world of Photonics isn’t the easiest thing small cap investors have had to understand.  In fact, it may be the very hardest thing they’ve ever had to understand.  However, given the fact we are the very reason current photonics devices aren’t living up to snuff trying to keep up with our surfing, streaming, binging and zooming – you start to see why understanding photonics and POET Technologies could open up investors to a whole new world. 

We went beyond the press release with POET management to discuss the launch of their LightBar solution for data centers.  They did a great job explaining it in terms that are both compelling yet understandable.  

Before watching this video, here is some important background information.   

Photonics are critical to the next phase of semiconductor development.  Semiconductors are an essential component of every electronic device on the planet.

Photonic devices create, detect and manipulate light.  Laser generated light is fundamental to sensing, computing, data and telecommunications, which require the fastest transfer of data possible  

For example – the biggest trends in computing today: 

  • Cloud Computing
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • 5G and Edge  

HERE IS THE PROBLEM 

Making photonics devices that are reliable is expensive in terms of both capital and labor. 

Cost declines have not kept up with Moore’s Law, with most photonics devices built one at a time – and multiple different components must be able to interconnect seamlessly without constant testing.

The Result? Integration of components at wafer-scale has not been fully implemented even by the largest companies working for the past 20 years  ….. UNTIL NOW

POET has developed a unique, disruptive and differentiating new entry into photonics markets.

The POET Optical Interposer™ Platform – patented photonics integration platform that enables lower cost and higher performance across a wide range of applications

Today’s press release announcing a line of high-performance remote laser light source products for applications in Cloud-Based Data Centers might very well take POET to a whole new level,

PyroGenesis $PYR.ca Board Approves Plan to File Application to #NASDAQ for Q1 2021 Listing $RTN $NOC $UTX $DDD.ca $HPQ.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:23 AM on Tuesday, December 8th, 2020
  • Announced today that at the Company’s Board of Directors’ meeting on December 7th, 2020, it was formally approved to move forward with the strategic decision to file an application to list its common shares on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange over the next several days.
  • NASDAQ is the second largest exchange by market capitalization worldwide, and is home to many of the world’s best technology companies.
  • Company has engaged Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough LLP as its US legal counsel to process the NASDAQ listing, and the Company’s external Canadian legal counsel will provide the required oversight during this process.

PyroGenesis Canada Inc. (http://pyrogenesis.com) (TSX: PYR) (OTCQB: PYRNF) (FRA: 8PY), (the “Company”, the “Corporation” or “PyroGenesis”) a Company that designs, develops, manufactures and commercializes plasma atomized metal powder, plasma waste-to-energy systems and plasma torch products, is pleased to announce today that at the Company’s Board of Directors’ (the “Board”) meeting on December 7th, 2020, it was formally approved to move forward with the strategic decision to file an application to list its common shares (“Shares”) on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange (“NASDAQ”) over the next several days. NASDAQ is the second largest exchange by market capitalization worldwide, and is home to many of the world’s best technology companies.

The Company has engaged Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough LLP as its US legal counsel to process the NASDAQ listing, and the Company’s external Canadian legal counsel will provide the required oversight during this process.

“We are pleased to announce today another significant step towards ultimately enhancing shareholder value,” said Mr. P. Peter Pascali, CEO and Chair of PyroGenesis. “The United States has the largest capital market in the world and, as such, a NASDAQ listing has always been on our radar as one of the many strategies to execute as part of our long-term vision for the Company. On the back of our recent achievements, and our successful uplisting to the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”), the Board decided that the timing was right to proceed with this application. After discussions with our US legal counsel, and a representative of NASDAQ, it was confirmed that the Company meets the standard requirements for a listing. However, there still remains a rigorous application procedure which the Company must pass before a final listing is granted. The listing, barring any delays or objections, is expected before the end of Q1 2021.”

There will not be a concurrent financing associated with this listing nor will there be a reverse stock split.

“A NASDAQ listing is a natural next step for the Company,” said Ms. Rodayna Kafal, VP IR/Comms and Strategic BD. “We believe a NASDAQ listing should, amongst other things, (i) provide additional opportunities to attract institutional and retail investors, thus allowing the Company to further broaden its investor base, and (ii) increase the visibility and credibility of the Company worldwide thereby attracting additional sales, partnerships, and M&A opportunities.”

In advance of an anticipated listing on NASDAQ, PyroGenesis will, over the next several days, formally file an application to list on NASDAQ. Shortly thereafter, the Company will file a 40-F registration statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The listing of the Company’s Shares on NASDAQ remains subject to the approval of the exchange, and the satisfaction of all applicable listing and regulatory requirements. The Company will continue to maintain the listing of its Shares on the TSX and, subsequent to a successful listing, would trade on both exchanges under the ticker symbol “PYR”.

$KABN.ca Liquid Avatar, Lumedic, Loop Insights $MTRX.ca The Campus Agency and TripXpertz Form Consortium to Manage Verifiable Identity Credentials for COVID-19 Vaccinations $MOS.ca $MOGO.ca $CTZ.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:12 AM on Tuesday, December 8th, 2020
kabn-square-new

Verified Self Sovereign Identity, together with a complete end-to-end issuance and verification health credentials ecosystem, ensures individuals have full privacy and control of personal healthcare data, including vaccination records, so they can securely start returning back to public life, freely.

  • Announced the formation of a consortium of industry leaders that will empower people to start getting back to the activities, people and places they have been missing in their lives.
  • The consortium has developed an integrated solution that enables healthcare issuers, individuals and verifiers to have a digital COVID-19 verifiable identity healthcare credential that is secure, user managed and controlled to ensure privacy, transportability and ease of use.
  • This solution supports the foundation for the acceptance of digital Healthcare Passports.

TORONTO, ON and GIBRALTAR December 8, 2020 / The KABN Network, together with KABN Systems NA Holdings Corp. (CSE:KABN) (the “Company” or “KABN North America”), a Canadian fintech company that specializes in continuous online identity verification, management and monetization in Canada and the US, through its biometrically and identity verified Self Sovereign Identity platform, Liquid Avatar (www.liquidavatar.com), today announces the formation of a consortium of industry leaders that will empower people to start getting back to the activities, people and places they have been missing in their lives. The consortium has developed an integrated solution that enables healthcare issuers, individuals and verifiers to have a digital COVID-19 verifiable identity healthcare credential that is secure, user managed and controlled to ensure privacy, transportability and ease of use. This solution supports the foundation for the acceptance of digital Healthcare Passports.

This consortium initially includes the Lumedic Exchange, to power the healthcare credential ecosystem; Loop Insights (MTRX), a leader in automatic contact tracing; The Campus Agency, to support on campus programs at over 2,000 US Colleges and Universities; and TripXpertz, an organization that works with over 1,000 travel and tourism boards, airlines, wholesalers and resorts, together with Liquid Avatar’s Self Sovereign Identity platform to empower the worldwide Healthcare industry to issue Identity-based Verifiable Credentials through a secure, effective and cost-efficient ecosystem.

This ecosystem will allow qualified Health Professionals with the ability to issue a Verifiable Credential that enables venues and other facilities to verify both the issued credential and the known user in real-time to grant access and / or services. This partnership built on a Trust over IP (TOIP) open standards framework, and the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) specifications for decentralized identifiers for credential management, can power interoperable COVID-19 vaccination and other verifiable credentials across a host of user managed and controlled digital wallets and applications. This process can be used for multiple use cases such as Education, Workplaces, Tradeshows, Healthcare, Sporting Events, Concerts, Entertainment, Travel, Places of Worship, Senior Living, and other facilities, venues and locations and opens the door to further opportunities for commercial and consumer opportunities.

Liquid Avatar’s Self Sovereign Identity (SSI) platform, which includes user biometric validation and a bank-grade verified identity credential, is available to consumers at no cost. Liquid Avatar enables users to verify and manage their identity and access credentials in a cloud-based, biometrically-secure application. Users have complete control over their digital assets (like wallets, passwords and more), identity, and data through easy to use avatars that can be shared, on a permission-basis with others. The COVID-19 Verifiable Healthcare Credential combines healthcare data with the user’s biometrically verified identity credential. When a request is made by a Verifier, the User has a choice of which attributes are shared, creating a private verification transaction between themselves and a verifier. While much of the technology and services are already in place, the launch of the healthcare credential pilot is expected to take place in the first quarter of 2021 to coincide with the expected release of the COVID-19 widespread vaccination program.

This program will not only be able to verify identity credentials for the Covid-19 vaccines, diagnostic and antibody testing, but will also be able to support a wide range of immunizations and healthcare records.

“We want to empower users to return to public life and the things they once did freely, pre-COVID-19, with ease and continued safety, with this and future credentials,” said David Lucatch, CEO of KABN. “Our goal is to help get everyone back to life as efficiently and effectively as possible, so a sense of “normality” can be reestablished. Liquid Avatar and the ecosystem, together with this amazing group and a growing list of partners, will potentially enable businesses, schools, entertainment venues, and more do the normal things that they do and give users the power to engage with them as they did before the pandemic changed our lives.”

Healthcare issuers and individuals will be granted access to the system at no cost. Verifiers wishing to access the system will be charged a nominal subscription and micro-payment per verification, making it very cost efficient and effective to use the system for small and medium sized enterprises all the way up to major airlines, venues and facilities. The partners are committed to making the services affordable to all parties, so that everyone can get back to their everyday lives.

The KABN Network is working with leading industry partners to provide a safe and effective ecosystem that supports the issuance, ownership and verification of these verified identity and access credentials and is proud to be working with the following partners at the outset of this announcement covering a wide range of technologies, issuer, consumer and verification engagement, with additional partners to be named as the program grows.

Trust over IP Foundation (ToIP)

As a member of the Trust over IP Foundation (www.trustoverip.org) steering committee, The KABN Network is committed to the organization’s open-standard framework and tech stacks. ToIP recently released its Covid-19 Credentials Initiative (“CCI”) Governance Framework for public review.

“Trust over IP offers an important new model for how to assemble the pieces that create working and reliable digital trust ecosystems. We are very excited to see momentum growing for real-world cases where the model is being used to make people’s digital lives simpler and better. This includes the KABN Network becoming part of the Lumedic Exchange,” said John Jordan – Executive Director of the Trust over IP Foundation. “We hope to see this momentum continue, and more organizations using the Trust over IP model to create solutions that benefit individuals and businesses.”

Lumedic Exchange

The KABN Network, as a founding partner, is working with the Lumedic Exchange (www.lumedic.io), an open-standards, decentralized framework for the healthcare industry giving patients greater control over their health data.

Chris Ingrao, Chief Strategy Officer of Lumedic, a US-based Health technology company, part of Providence Health Systems ecosystem, comments: “Lumedic recently launched the Lumedic Exchange, the first healthcare ecosystem of its kind dedicated solely to community-driven standards development for patient-intermediated information exchange using verifiable credentials, to support secure exchange of vaccination information.”

Loop Insights, Inc.

Powering professional sports, entertainment, collegiate and other venues and facilities with Automatic Contract Tracing, Loop Insights, Inc. (www.loopinsights.ai) (MTRX) has developed a fully managed contactless check-in platform that securely transfers contact information and triggers real-time notifications at scale.

“The success Loop has had with our recent NCAA sporting events using our venue tracing and management tools, only reinforces the need for a unified verifiable credential that consumers and businesses can trust. Working with KABN and Liquid Avatar and their digital identity platform will provide our customers – and ultimately consumers – with the level of trust required to provide personal information such as COVID testing results, vaccination proof, payment, and other sensitive personal information required in today’s changing landscape. We are thrilled to be one of the first partners to work with KABN and Liquid Avatar on an end to end solution that will provide this safety, security, and peace of mind required to protect consumers looking to return to a new way of life where mobile devices and personal information will be at the forefront of nearly every interaction”, Rob Anson, President and CEO Loop Insights.

With reach to over 2,000 US College and University campuses and over 1.5 Million Gen Z students, alumni and families, The Campus Agency (www.thecampusagency.com) has been supporting innovative direct to student and online marketing programs for over 40 years.

“We are really excited to be working with KABN and Liquid Avatar and be a member of this consortium. COVID-19 has impacted the lives of students and faculty on college campuses in such a major way, and we are looking forward to being part of a solution that provides campus communities with the tools and resources they need to return to their way of lives, safely and securely,” Chris Nyland, Chief Operating Officer, The Campus Agency

TripXpertz

“Our Priority Protection Passport program is aimed at restoring consumer confidence and trust in travelling again and piece-of-mind while away,” says Brad Miron, CEO of TripXpertz. “This partnership gives us, and our multiple program stakeholders, the ability to verify an individual’s identity with certainty, while maintaining security and privacy – In the context of Priority Protection Passport, Liquid Avatar and the capabilities of the Verifiable Identity Healthcare Credentials are foundational to what we must deliver to attract, assure and welcome back tourists to destinations.”

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 7:28 AM on Tuesday, December 8th, 2020

Empower’s KAI Medical Laboratory Is A Priority Testing Partner That Is Expected To Participate In Significant Programs Aimed At Opening Up Key Travel and Hospitality Industries

  • Announced the signing of a Memorandum Of Understanding (“MOU”) with SimpliFlying, the world’s leading aviation marketing consulting firm, to provide COVID-19 testing support for airlines and travel bubbles.
  • SimpliFlying has been consulting to airlines for over a decade and is one of the largest in the world, having worked with over 100 major clients including airlines, OEMs and airports globally with clients that include American Airlines, Turkish Airlines, LATAM Airlines, Airbus, Boeing, Bombardier and Toronto Pearson Airport.
  • SimpliFlying also solves complex operational issues facing the airline and tourism industry, working with large hotel groups such as Intercontinental and others.

VANCOUVER, BC / December 8, 2020 / EMPOWER CLINICS INC. (CSE:CBDT)(Frankfurt:8EC)(OTCQB:EPWCF) (“Empower” or the “Company“) an integrated healthcare company serving a database of 165,000 patients through clinics in the Southwest United States, a telemedicine platform and a leading medical diagnostics laboratory is pleased to announce the signing of a Memorandum Of Understanding (“MOU”) with SimpliFlying, the world’s leading aviation marketing consulting firm, to provide COVID-19 testing support for airlines and travel bubbles.

SIMPLIFLYING IS A TRUSTED NAME TO AIRLINES, AIRPORTS AND HOTEL GROUPS

SimpliFlying has been consulting to airlines for over a decade and is one of the largest in the world, having worked with over 100 major clients including airlines, OEMs and airports globally with clients that include American Airlines, Turkish Airlines, LATAM Airlines, Airbus, Boeing, Bombardier and Toronto Pearson Airport.

SimpliFlying also solves complex operational issues facing the airline and tourism industry, working with large hotel groups such as Intercontinental and others.

SIMPLIFLYING LAUNCH OF “SIMPLI TESTED” RECEIVES EARLY PRAISE AS ONE OF THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE APPROACHES SO FAR

With the Coronavirus Pandemic wreaking havoc on the global airline and tourism industry, the work of SimpliFlying has become more important than ever in helping solve how airlines, airports, cruise lines, hotels and tourism will safely get back to operations. SimpliFlying is working closely with major international airlines and major Canadian airlines on “Travel Bubbles” and “Tourism Bubbles” that involve testing protocols using PCR tests, rapid PCR, rapid antibody and rapid antigen tests throughout the travel supply chain.

To this end, SimpliFlying has just launched SimpliTested to highlight and support the needs of key industries around the globe, in partnership with FDA and CE approved testing providers, reliable labs and cutting-edge exposure notification applications. The initiative has already received early praise from the media:

“Simpliflying’s “Testing+” proposal is one of the most comprehensive approaches we’ve seen proposed so far.” (Forbes “How Testing Can Get The World Flying Again” (September 17, 2020)

EMPOWER TO PROVIDE MARKET LEADING COVID-19 TESTING SUPPORT AND TRAVELLER ACCESS TO LABS ACROSS NORTH AMERICA

Shashank Nigam, Founder & CEO of SimpliFlying stated “To kickstart travel, airlines and airports need to offer easy access to labs that can turn around accurate test results in a speedy manner. SimpliFlying’s partnership with Empower Clinics will bring access to labs all across North America to support travellers.”

Empower will provide COVID-19 testing support with our most recent products launched in the United States including:

Empower will also provide additional critical functionality to support the strategic consulting work provided by SimpliFlying to airlines and the hospitality industry, including the ability to support onsite collection operational processes at airports, hotels and cruise lines.

Moreover, Empower has the ability to provide additional support for a variety of solutions that may require and are capable of delivering critical elements such as contact tracing technology.

Finally, both Companies intend to lead education and proof of concept with the goal of eliminating 14-day quarantine requirements upon return to Canada. Having structured policies and testing protocols to confirm that travellers are negative for the COVID-19 virus has the potential to significantly open up travel limitations.

Steven McAuley, Chairman and CEO of Empower stated “Once I made the connection with Shashank the SimpliFlying Founder & CEO, I knew right away that a partnership needed to be created given how complementary our companies are to each other. Shashank and team have impressed me with their technical knowledge of the airline, tourism and hospitality industries, they understand exactly what is required to get these key industries back on track, back to work, to get consumers traveling again. Together, utilizing the operational and testing protocols coming to market right now from our wholly owned subsidiary KAI Medical Laboratory, has the potential to make a meaningful and lasting impact on these global industries.”

PARTNERSHIP FURTHER SOLIDIFIES KAI MEDICAL FOOTHOLD IN COVID-19 TESTING SPACE

KAI Medical Laboratory operates a high-complexity CLIA and COLA accredited laboratory that provides reliable and accurate testing solutions to hospitals, medical clinics, pharmacies, and employer groups. KAI has taken an active role in COVID-19 testing, battling the pandemic through RT-PCR testing and serology testing with the capacity to process 4,000 RT-PCR test specimens per day. While the RT-PCR test identifies if a patient has an active virus, the serology or antibody test detects if a patient has previously been exposed to the virus. Both of these test results are vital to managing outbreaks and the potential spread of coronavirus.

As a result of this capability, Empower is now able to expand phase four of its COVID-19 testing rollout which was first announced on April 27, 2020 beginning with testing in-clinic testing (Phase 1) and culminating with a nationwide roll-out across the United States (Phase 4). Phase 4 allows Empower to service enterprise level clients, including airlines, hotels, cruise lines and movie & television studios that require reliable, accurate, fast and mass batch testing capabilities in order to resume production in a safe and compliant manner.

With MGA approval received, FansUnite will be joining other highly respected gambling companies such as PokerStars, Betfair and Unibet in operating their business within MGA regulations.

The Malta Gaming Authority is a gambling regulatory organization that provides top-tier industry standard gaming licenses that are in line with EU laws and regulations.

With the approval in hand, we will look to continue executing on our growth strategy, by collaborating with new partners in Europe in order to distribute our sports and esports betting platform along with our RNG casino game titles to an expanded customer base.”

Loop Insights $MTRX.ca $RACMF Announces Intention To Begin Process Of Uplisting To Major North American Stock Exchanges, Commencing With Application To Uplist On #TSX, Followed By Application To Dual-List On #NASDAQ

https://miro.medium.com/max/3150/1*f9msDHyceA_TbRM30jQhsw.png
  • Announced the approval by the Board of Directors of the Company’s intended plan to begin the process of uplisting to major North American Stock Exchanges.
  • Uplist Plan outlines Loop’s proposed plan to apply to have its common shares uplisted to the Toronto Stock Exchange, as a technology company, from the TSX Venture Exchange
  • Secondly, if the Company is successful in uplisting to the TSX, Loop intends to, as soon as practical, begin the process of filing a Form F-1 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission of the United States, which will enable Loop to apply to be listed on the NASDAQ.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 07, 2020 — Loop Insights Inc. (MTRX:TSXV) (RACMF:OTCQB) (the “Company” or “Loop”), a provider of contactless solutions and artificial intelligence (“AI”) to drive real-time insights, enhanced customer engagement, and automated venue tracing to the brick and mortar space, is pleased to announce the approval by the Board of Directors of the Company’s intended plan (“Uplist Plan”) to begin the process of uplisting to major North American Stock Exchanges.

The Uplist Plan outlines Loop’s proposed plan to apply to have its common shares uplisted to the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”), as a technology company, from the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”). Completion of the Uplist Plan is subject to meeting certain conditions, as well as the approval of the TSX. There is no assurance that the TSX will approve the listing application or that Loop will complete the Uplist Plan as proposed.

Secondly, if the Company is successful in uplisting to the TSX, Loop intends to, as soon as practical, begin the process of filing a Form F-1 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission of the United States (the “SEC”), which will enable Loop to apply to be listed on the NASDAQ. In the opinion of the Board, legal counsel, and financial advisors, a NASDAQ listing application would be better served coming from a TSX listed company, as opposed to a direct application from the TSXV. Any such listing application is subject to meeting the stringent conditions of the SEC, as well as, the approval of the NASDAQ. There is no assurance that either the SEC or NASDAQ will approve the Company’s respective applications or that Loop will complete the listing to the NASDAQ as proposed. Loop may elect to not complete the uplist to the TSX or the NASDAQ for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to, unfavourable market conditions, the additional regulatory and financial burden of being listed on the TSX or the NASDAQ, or other conditions affecting the business or operations of Loop.

UPLIST PLAN ENACTED IN ANTICIPATION OF COMPANY GROWTH IN 2021

2020 has seen extraordinary growth for the Company in terms of its technology stack, customer acquisitions, Tier-1 partnerships, technology deployments, and most importantly, the growth of the Company’s sales pipeline. Though Loop cannot provide any assurances as to the success stemming from its current and growing sales pipeline, we are of the strong opinion that we will continue to see increased demand in the marketplace for our AI data applications and product services. The digital transformation driven by COVID-19 has accelerated Loop’s products across all industries and channels. As a result, Loop is well-positioned to be a big winner in the global digital transformation opportunity, as we seek to develop the connective tissue that bridges all data worlds together in real-time.

The Company’s main goal from the outset was to be the first publicly-traded, Artificial Intelligence, data play that delivers the ability to connect and to provide real-time data applications across the big three channels; In-Store, E-Commerce, and M-Commerce. The Company has not only accomplished this goal in 2020, it has begun to commercialize and build a strong pipeline of Tier-1 global brands.

Loop Insights CEO Rob Anson stated, “As a result of our immutable relevancy, high demand for Loop’s products, pipeline growth, and ability to easily scale into a global marketplace that is in full press digital transformation, we expect a continued accelerated pace that now warrants an uplist and dual list strategy that will attract institutional investors commensurate with our anticipated profile in 2021 and far beyond.”
