Our thesis at AGORACOM is that small cap disruptive technology companies are going to create 3X more wealth this decade than the last 3 decades combined, thanks to the convergence of powerful tech such as Artificial Intelligence, IoT sensors and so on.
Why? The costs to develop, deploy and scale new applications powered by these new technologies have come down to a point where small cap companies can compete head to head with just about anybody. In fact, their size makes them more nimble and able to pivot into emerging trends much quicker than most tech giants.
Which companies will actually succeed in delivering is a determination you have to make. But one company to consider is Predictiv AI (PAI:TSXV / INOTF:OTCQB), whose proprietary artificial intelligence and machine learning platform provides predictive and prescriptive solutions in the public safety sector.
In layman’s terms, PAI uses AI and Machine learning to create solutions that can predict danger.
For example, the Company’s Thermal Pass Fever Detection System was recently used at a Carolina Panthers NFL game. Watch this short video to see it in action. Highlights of the system include:
24 medical grade sensors
1,200 readings per second
1 person / second
As you can imagine, Thermal Pass can be used for almost any high-traffic location you can think of. But the big question is …. will anybody actually use it? Because truth be told 99% of us are not in a position to be able to assess how any AI solutions of any company stack up against the competition. The only thing we can rely on is AGORACOM’s favourite metric – 3rd party acceptance. In short, if your product is good, people will want it.
By that measure, PAI is off to a great start with:
Orders for 62 units of ThermalPass since commercial launch in October. Impressive.
Orders include hospitals, long-term care facilities, prisons and public schools. More impressive
6 channel partners. This is really impressive because channel partners don’t waste their valuable time and resources with products they don’t think they can sell
3rd party acceptance at this early stage – CHECK
Watch our interview with Michael Lende in which we do a deep dive into PAI tech, products and future plans.

AGORACOM followers have given us great feedback on our hit series “Beyond The Press Release” (BTPR) in which we speak with small cap CEO’s about important press releases in greater depth and, quite frankly, in layman’s terms for investors to truly understand their significance.
Nowhere is this more important than in the world of disruptive technologies, biotech and pharma. Each of these industries share two distinct traits:
The possibility for explosive growth with disruptive new products
Difficulty in conveying disruptive new products that, by their nature, have never been seen before by investors.
Whereas BTPR tells these stories from the side of small cap public companies, Beyond The Expert (BTE) tells these stories from the perspective of experts on these topics – and we couldn’t think of anyone better to start off this series than Leigh Hughes.
Leigh is a Venture Capitalist who I’ve personally watched conduct incredible due diligence and invest into many small cap companies that have generated incredible returns over 12-18 month periods.
Leigh is so good at what he does that many global private equity funds and institutions take his call and often follow him into investments he chooses to make. Moreover, he serves as an advisor to several small cap companies.
If you ever wanted to truly learn how to become a great small cap investor, it doesn’t get much better than this.
Without further adieu, watch this great interview with Leigh Hughes and make sure to provide us with your feedback via comments on Twitter, YouTube or wherever you may be watching or listening.

When you have a billion dollar major scouring your land for a major gold discovery in excess of 5 million ounces, most juniors would find little motivation to continue their own exploration.
Not Loncor. Loncor has the goods on their JV partner Barrick to the sum of 3.7 million ounces and counting; outside of the JV. They plan on growing ounces through drilling and have 5 million ounces in their sights. Right around the threshold for what Barrick is looking for and currently outside of their reach.
If that isn’t enough to grab your attention, Newmont Owns 6% , Resolute Owns 26% and CEO Arnold Kondrat Owns 27%
Tune in to discover why their JV with Barrick is their 2nd best asset, making Loncor the SmallCap Exploration company to own.

As the name implies “PropTech” is a combination of two words and stands for “property technology.” As simple as that is, the implementation and importance of PropTech is anything but, which is why many companies are trying to capitalize on the rapidly growing paradigm shift, while Universal PropTech (UPI:TSXV) is actually delivering healthy building solutions developers, owners and operators across Canada.
More than just lip service, UPI clients include
Federal Government facilities for over 40 years
Manulife
Brookfield
Billy Bishop Airport
University of Toronto
…. and many more
As a result, UPI has generated $35,000,000+ in revenue over the past 3 year – a number most small cap companies would be very happy with. But newly appointed Chief Growth Officer, Frank Carnevale sees a much bigger opportunity by winning exclusive licenses and partnerships with providers of great products that can significantly grow company revenues.
And that’s exactly what he has done. In the month of FEBRUARY alone, UPI has announced:
Agreement with LuminUltra Technologies to Provide SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) Surface Testing
Channel Partnership with SensorSuite Inc. to Deliver AI Building Automation for MURBs and Non-BAS Customers
Exclusive Distributor Agreement for Eastern Canada for Canadian-Made Air Sanitization Solutions
How significant are these announcements and what do they mean to the Company’s growth?
Watch our interview with CGO Carnevale to learn about these and where UPI is going.

DALLAS, TX / ACCESSWIRE / February 11, 2021 /Imperium Group’s Shazir Mucklai had a chat with TAAT this past week.
In a world where re-invented consumer packaged goods (CPG) of perceived unhealthy or environmentally harmful products are all the rage, TAAT Lifestyle & Wellness (CNSX:TAAT)(OTCQB:TOBAF) is attempting to forge its own niche. By introducing a hemp-based substitute that mimics the experience of a traditional tobacco cigarette, the company is hoping steal market share from Big Tobacco, as well as grow sales organically.
TAAT cigarettes are formulated from a house blend of CBD-containing hemp called Beyond Tobacco™. Hemp is blended with patented ingredients and refined in such a way as to replicate the experience of a conventional tobacco cigarette-without the addictive effects of nicotine. Furthermore, some users report feeling a calming effect after using the product-potentially from the cannabidiol (CBD) content inherent to its hemp base.
Given the way re-invented products in ancillary CPG categories achieved strong consumer adoption, TAAT is seeking to replicate a similar pathway to viability. For example, tobacco’s sister industry vertical-Beer Distillers-have found success offering drinks which contain little or no alcohol.
Last year, The Conference Board of Canada’sBrewing up Benefits report stated that non-alcoholic beer accounts for 1.2% of total beer sales-increasing by more than 50% between 2013 and 2018. On a global scale, Statista report that in 2020, the global non-alcoholic beer market was valued at roughly USD$18 billion and is expected to grow at 7.5 percent CAGR (compound annual growth rate) by 2024, reaching a value of about USD$25 billion.
While non-alcoholic beer sales are just a sliver of beer brewer’s total revenues, if TAAT can replicate similar market penetration in the tobacco sector, a viable investment thesis may take root.
