The recently completed drilling in phase 2 identified a series of 30 epithermal veins
Approximately 1000m to the northeast, the SG3 Target area, is a structural intersection mapped and sampled by the geological survey of Mexico which is a feeder system type target.
Now that we have established that there is a large cluster of epithermal veins at Tabasquena, we are also eager to explore for feeder system type targets. Our plan to drill deeper into the vein system to look for the boiling point in our epithermal veins
Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – December 6, 2018) –
Advance Gold Corp. (TSXV: AAX) (“Advance Gold” or “the Company”) is
pleased to provide an update on exploration plans for its Tabasquena
project near Ojocaliente, Mexico. Based on the phase 2 drilling program,
and historical work completed by the geological survey of Mexico, a
dual track drilling program is being planned.
The recently completed drilling in phase 2, has identified a series
of epithermal veins (more than 30), which have only been drilled above
the boiling point and remain open at depth and along strike.
Approximately 1000 metres to the northeast, the SG3 target area, is a
structural intersection mapped and sampled by the geological survey of
Mexico which is a feeder system type target.
Allan Barry Laboucan, President and CEO of Advance Gold Corp. commented: “Now
that we have established that there is a large cluster of epithermal
veins at Tabasquena, we are also eager to explore for feeder system type
targets. Our plan to drill deeper into the vein system to look for the
boiling point in our epithermal veins, combined with stepping out into
other areas of the property gives us a good chance to open things up.
“Past work by the geological survey of Mexico, at the SG3 target area, has mapped a key structural intersection to the northeast of the vein system and a coincident gold anomaly. . “The more work we do on the property, the more it becomes clear that we are looking at a large epithermal vein system, and other compelling targets on the project. We are looking forward to more drilling to test these targets in our phase 3 drilling.”

Fintech on Blockchain is fast disrupting the financial industry
The speed and scale of this disruption will mainly depend on the adoption of the new economy by the users
Fintech on Blockchain is fast disrupting the financial industry. The
speed and scale of this disruption will mainly depend on the adoption of
the new economy by the users. People have spoken, everyone is tired of
black boxes, we want to be the ones to determine how much we pay for the
transfer of information and finances between us.
Why long, expensive money/asset/information transfers with the
participation of several intermediaries through multi-layer systems? We
do not wait for days to send urgent mail across the world. We expect the
technology to work for us. Then why should we accept long lead times
for cross-border payments? Could it be a question of trust?
Perhaps, we still rely on traditional banks to provide consultancy,
security or dispute resolutions. We rely on banks to protect us to
ensure that the counterparty will meet obligations. Banks are seen by
government institutions, as guarantors for safeguarding our rights and
contract agreements.
But the problem remains; banks are slow at solving our problems and
this slows down the markets. Time costs money and, in order to
validate each other, we are paying huge commissions to third parties
for this process. Anonymity does not exist, yet we want to understand
that those who we deal with go through a clear verification procedure to
provide the legitimacy of transactions.
One interesting company which aims to offer change the way banking is done is Platio.
It claims to be one of the first fully licensed companies that aims to
provide the complete spectrum of services in its multi-asset banking
system. Platio’s function is banking as a service and its CFO, Irina
Berkon certainly has her ideas clear on where blockchain and fintech are
going.
“The future is in blockchainization and tokenization of the finance
industry. Blockchain is the most convenient environment in which AML
regulation can be applied. All transactions have trusted track records.
The wide spread of blockchain in the finance industry results in
self-regulation of the financial system and the best option for further
development, Berkon says.
Now, let’s not confuse blockchain with unregulated crypto
transactions. Legitimacy and regulation of all transactions is required.
As soon as the asset is converted into cash, regulation must kick in.
For people in their early and
mid-twenties, when reflecting on their parent’s life, though full of
admiration for putting up what they had to in order to get where they
wanted to go, feel that since tomorrow is never guaranteed, there is a
little more emphasis on living in the moment whilst still planning and
saving for the future.
The idea that a bank could be part of
that, instead of being the nightmare that they tend to be, with
inconvenient opening times and red tape galore is very intriguing. Now
when I previously stated that there is a bigger sense of carpe diem with
millenials, I do not mean in a frivolous way. Rather however they seem
to invest more in wellness.
Millennials would perhaps gladly
invest 20 minutes of their precious time into a TED talk, on the off
chance that it might inspire us or change our perspective. A criticism
aimed at forty-somethings like me would be that we will never bother to
listen to someone not known to be an expert on a subject, talk about it.
We would be full of questions like, “Why should I listen to him/her?â€
or “What does she/he know about anything?â€
Moreso in today’s world of social
media, where most of us seem so connected…but only on the surface, are
really quite lonely. Again the idea of emotionally connecting to a bank
is really quite radical. Moreover, a bank that goes the extra mile and
tries to connect you to like-minded individuals or a community even to
help them reach their full potential, their authentic self.
With other online banking apps and
systems, like Revolut being such a hit, clearly there is a huge gap in
the market that is yearning to be filled. Mazlow
is meant to help to foster excellence and help twenty-somethings reach
their full potential by not only being a bank, but also a mentor on
their journey through life. To embark with them on their personal
development journey.
Having been an entrepreneur from an
early age, initially in the Sports & Entertainment sectors and more
recently as an Ambassador for a Blockchain technology company, Mazlow
founder Kash Amini said that he came to realize that consumers are
looking for much more than just a product or service.
Mazlow founder Kash AminiMazlow
“What is missing from most
businesses, and particularly in finance, is a focus on authenticity and
an investment in aesthetics that will cultivate and foster an emotional
connection between the product or service and the ultimate end user, the
consumer themselvesâ€.
Mazlow claims to have pioneered the
theory of the hierarchy of needs, the pinnacle of every human’s life
being self-actualization – to be your own authentic self. They promise
to help people to become their authentic self by helping them grow their
community so they feel supported enough to succeed. Though it may seem
like a millennial’s dreamboat, we struggle to see how speeches and a
community can really lead to growth and so-called self-actualization.
Ever looking to the future, Mazlow
also gives users access to 5 cryptocurrencies – which is supposedly the
next big horizon in finance and banking. Designed by a veteran
entrepreneur, Mazlow is certainly promising and is definitely an
original idea however it remains to be seen whether they can actually
deliver on all that they pledge. A personal touch is certainly needed in
the cold world of banking but catering to the specific niche of
millennials may backfire altogether. After all, everyone wants to reach
their potential, however, whether financial health really could lead to
overall well being may be a bit of a stretch.

Nielsen announced an in-depth research study of esports fan attitudes and behaviors in the U.S. to feature data from Twitch.
Nielsen combined survey-based attitudes and preference data with Twitch viewership and behavior data from more than 2,000 U.S. esports fans who viewed esports content related to major titles like League of Legends, Overwatch League, Fortnite, and more over the past year.
Nielsen announced an in-depth research study of esports fan attitudes
and behaviors in the U.S. to feature data from Twitch. Nielsen combined
survey-based attitudes and preference data with Twitch viewership and
behavior data from more than 2,000 U.S. esports fans who viewed esports
content related to major titles like League of Legends, Overwatch
League, Fortnite, and more over the past year.
The result of this Nielsen and Twitch Esports Fan research study is a
set of rich data that marketers, rights holders, and esports
organizations can use to unlock the value of Twitch’s audience at a
detailed level. The data will guide those looking to make informed
decisions for investments, sponsorship and advertising, as well as help
esports organizations effectively demonstrate the unique value their
audience brings to the industry.
Some of the high-level insights from the Nielsen Esports study of the Twitch U.S. esports audience include:
Twitch esports fans are well-seasoned with nearly 60% following
esports for four or more years. In contrast, among the broader U.S.
esports audience, only 1 in 5 have been following this long, with 23%
new to esports within the past year.
50% of Twitch esports fans have a paid TV subscription service; less than 40% claim to view television on a weekly basis.
90% of Twitch esports fans can recall at least one non-gaming related sponsor within esports.
Esports fans are more likely to spend time engaging with esports
over traditional sports – Twitch fans significantly so, with 70%
dedicating more time to esports than traditional.
Over 60% of Twitch esports fans engage with gaming personalities on a
daily basis, and nearly one in three viewed at least five hours of live
Fortnite video content on Twitch in the past year.
“As we continue to support our esports clients, a common theme has
been their need for an even more detailed view of the esports audience
to support data-driven business decisions,†says Nicole Pike,
Managing Director, Nielsen Esports. “At Nielsen, we know the power of
viewership and how it can enrich an already valuable data set like our
Fan Insights work. Given Twitch’s depth of content and reach across
esports properties, we are thrilled to have the opportunity to work with
them since this marks a natural evolution for our annual research.â€
“Twitch caters to the many interests of gamers with esports among the more popular types of entertainment we offer,†says Andrea Garabedian,
VP, Advertiser Marketing, Twitch. “By providing Nielsen with an
opportunity to survey our community, they were able to surface data that
reflects the passionate nature of our esports fans. Based on the amount
of time these gamers spend on our service and their familiarity with
the scene, from the games to the sponsors, it is clear that Twitch
represents an ideal destination for brands trying to connect with this
audience.â€
Nielsen collected the Twitch Esports Fan data via an online survey
deployed among a representative group of U.S.-based users from the
Twitch Research Power Group (RPG). The Twitch RPG is Twitch’s
proprietary panel comprised of over 50,000 Twitch viewers and allows the
brand to instantly tap into the pulse of its community. Members of the
Twitch RPG who opted into the survey ranged from ages 18-40. Along with
the survey invitation, Twitch shared anonymized behavioral viewership
data from survey respondents across top esports leagues/tournaments and
20 different game titles.
Nielsen will incorporate key findings into its annual Nielsen Esports
Report for the U.S. market, as well as leverage the data for consulting
services. The data from this landmark research are currently available
in the form of syndicated or custom analysis in addition to Nielsen’s
survey results among the broader esports fan base in the U.S. plus 10
other global markets.

Virginia-based connected health provider Creo Wellness, LLC (confirm the companies have committed to integrate CardioComm’s ECG monitoring service technologies and ECG devices to support the CREO physician network’s management of patients and enhance the services offered through the CREO patient engagement platform
ECG technology integration across CREO’s platform to be launched in 2019
Toronto, Ontario–(December 14, 2018) – CardioComm Solutions, Inc. (TSXV: EKG) (“CardioComm” or the “Company” or “CCS“), a leading global provider of consumer heart monitoring and electrocardiogram (“ECG“) acquisition and management software solutions, and Virginia-based connected health provider Creo Wellness, LLC (“CREO“) confirm the companies have committed to integrate CardioComm’s ECG monitoring service technologies and ECG devices to support the CREO physician network’s management of patients and enhance the services offered through the CREO patient engagement platform.
CREO developed and supports its home-based, physician-directed
patient care software platform to improve the health outcomes of its
patients. CREO selected CardioComm as a preferred ECG services solutions
provider to enhance its patient care software platform, specifically
CardioComm’s over-the-counter (“OTC“) HeartCheck™
handheld ECG devices, and its traditional ECG monitoring services, such
as Holter, resting 12 lead and 14 day event monitoring.
CREO’s platform is currently used by many employers, hospital and
physician groups who collectively manage up to 300,000 patients each
month. CREO estimates that the number of managed patients per month
using its platform will triple to 900,000 by 2020.
CardioComm will integrate its GEMS™ Mobile Smartphone app into CREO’s
existing mobile application and workflow to support the option to
record an ECG at any time. All ECG’s will be managed through
CardioComm’s cloud-based GEMS™ Flex software. All ECGs will be ready by
the Company’s SMART Monitoring ECG reading service. CREO will be
notified of any reviewed ECGs with abnormalities. The ECGs will also be
flagged for remote review by the patient’s physician based on the
severity of the abnormality found.
The partnership between CREO and CCS will bring new product offerings
to the USA market in early 2019. For CardioComm Solutions, this will
generate multiple new revenue streams resulting from the licensing of
CardioComm’s GEMS™ cloud and Smart phone app ECG management tools, the
purchase of GEMS™ compatible OTC and Rx ECG devices and a fee-for-use
based on CardioComm’s SMART Monitoring ECG reading service. CREO will
place the devices into their patient care software platform, which will
be prescribed through CREO member physicians. Use of these devices will
generate revenue through the provision of ECG readings under established
USA Current Procedural Terminology (“CPT“) codes. CREO
will manage all CPT code billings for the ECG services performed. CPT
codes are maintained by the American Medical Association to provide
information about medical services and procedures among physicians,
coders, patients, accreditation organizations and payers.
All ECGs will be managed by CardioComm’s cloud-based GEMS™ Flex
software where all ECGs will be interpreted by the Company’s SMART
Monitoring ECG reading service. CREO will be notified of any reviewed
ECGs with abnormalities which will be flagged for remote review by the
patient’s physician in accordance with the severity of the abnormality
found.
Both companies expect that at least 30% of CREO patients will require
ECG monitoring ranging from routine baseline recordings to regular
daily monitoring for prolonged periods of time. The first phase of
technology integration is expected to be completed in Q1 2019, followed
by the full launch of the ECG services across the CREO platform.

Intel and esports company ESL have extended a long-standing
partnership, signing a three-year, $100 million deal designed to boost
the profile of electronic sports worldwide.
Intel will provide the technology — including high-powered computer
processors and 5G — for some of the best-known esports events through
2021
Participants in the Intel Extreme Masters tournament in Chicago, November 2018.
Intel-ESL
Intel and
esports company ESL have extended a long-standing partnership, signing a
three-year, $100 million deal designed to boost the profile of
electronic sports worldwide, the companies announced Thursday.
Under the deal, Intel will provide multiple layers of technology —
including its high-powered “Core†computer processors and 5G — for some
of the biggest esports events through 2021. The semiconductor giant will
also work alongside ESL to create new events seen around the globe. ESL
runs multiple esports leagues and tournaments worldwide.
The Intel Extreme Masters, an ESL-run league sponsored by Intel, is
set to enter its 14th season as the longest-running global professional
gaming circuit. As part of the deal, another tournament will be added to
the roster with the IEM event in China set to be converted into a
stand-alone event.
The $100 million investment marks an even deeper foray into esports
for Intel, at a time when many big brands are entering the industry. The
company has sponsored ESL events for 18 years — making Intel one of the
first major companies to dive into the now-exploding esports space,
which is expected to surge to $1.4 billion in 2020, according to
estimates from research firm Newzoo.
The deal makes the Intel-ESL (formerly known as the Electronic Sports
League) affiliation the biggest brand and technology partnership in the
esports space, the companies said.
John Bonini, Intel’s vice president and general manager of virtual
reality, gaming and esports, told CNBC the company is “very proud to
have been a key part in growing esports.†The partnership creates more
long-term, sustainable paths in the industry, he said.
“It puts substantial weight behind [Intel’s commitment to esports],
and allows us and our partners at ESL to create new opportunities with
the next 15 years in mind,†Bonini said.
Mark Cohen, ESL’s senior vice president of global brand partnerships,
said Intel’s commitment represents the next phase in the rapid rise of
esports.
“For a really long period of time, there were a lot of one-year
deals, sometimes two-year deals, in esports,†he said. “Now other big
brands and traditional entertainment companies have started to invest,
and it’s allowed us to have an approach and strategy that’s pretty
identical to traditional sports entertainment,†Cohen said.

For the purpose of the execution of the Plan of Arrangement, HPQ subsidiary, Beauce Gold Fields Inc (“BGFâ€) has closed the $550,000 private placement required for the listing on the TSX-Venture Exchange
Submitted to the Exchange the Listing Application (Form 2B) under the reserved stock symbol BGF
MONTREAL, Dec. 12, 2018 — HPQ Silicon Resources Inc (“HPQâ€) (TSX VENTURE:HPQ)(FRANKFURT:UGE)(OTC PINK:URAGF) is pleased to inform shareholders that, for the purpose of the execution of the Plan of Arrangement, HPQ subsidiary, Beauce Gold Fields Inc (“BGFâ€) has closed the $550,000 private placement required for the listing on the TSX-Venture Exchange (“Exchangeâ€) and has submitted to the Exchange the Listing Application (Form 2B) under the reserved stock symbol BGF.
Once the Company receives satisfactory review of the Listing
Application, it will set (in collaboration with the Exchange) the
declaration date, record date, payment date of the distribution and

Patrick Levasseur, President and CEO of HPQ Beauce Gold Fields subsidiary stated, “We
are working closely with the Exchange to complete this listing process
that will allow HPQ to unlock the full potential value of the Beauce
Gold property through a fresh new entity starting with a tight capital
structure.†Mr. Levasseur also stated “The Beauce is Canada’s
last underexplored historical placer mining camp. It’s similar to the
placer to hard rock exploration projects in the Yukon or the Cariboo
district in BC, that were both placer gold mining camps as well, but
recently had major gold discoveries. Combining our large claims holding
in St-Simon-Les-Mines together with our increasing knowledge of the
geology, we believe we have narrowed the search in exploring for a hard
rock gold depositâ€.
The Private Placement is for:
3,500,000 hard-cash units (HC Units) at the price of $0.10 per HC Unit for total of $350,000.00
1,666,666 flow-through units (FT Units) at the price of $0.12 per FT Unit for total of $200,000.00

share purchase warrant of the Company to purchase one common share at
the price of $0.15 per share. Each FT Unit will be comprised of one
flow-through common share and one-half of one common share purchase
warrant, with each full warrant allowing the holder to purchase one
common share at the exercise price of $0.18 per share. The warrants are
valid until December 15, 2020.
In connection with the placement, the company paid Finders’ fees as follows:
1) $2,400 to Leede John Gable Inc., and the issuance of 24,000
warrants entitling the Agent to purchase 24,000 common shares at a price

December 15, 2020; 3) the issuance to Falkenberg Holding Ltd and to
Gathering Waters Ltd 8,000 warrants entitling the Agents to purchase
8,000 common shares at the price of $0.15 as well as 1,600 warrants

About Beauce Gold Fields
BGF is a wholly owned subsidiary of HPQ Silicon into which HPQ gold
assets were transferred. Subject to approval by TSX-V, HPQ is in the
process of listing BGF as a new public junior gold company, following
the approval by shareholders during HPQ AGM held on Aug. 10, 2018, of
the proposed terms of the plan of arrangement.
The Beauce Gold Fields project is a unique, historically prolific
gold property located in the municipality of Saint-Simon-les-Mines in
the Beauce region of Southern Quebec. Comprising of a block of 152
claims 100% owned by HPQ, the project area hosts a six kilometre long
unconsolidated gold-bearing sedimentary unit (a lower saprolite and an
upper brown diamictite). Textural observations (angularity) of gold
nuggets suggest a relatively proximal source and therefore a short
transport distance. The gold in saprolite indicates a close proximity to
a bedrock source of gold, providing possible further exploration
discoveries. The property was also hosts numerous historical gold mines
that were active from 1860s to the 1960s (see HPQ SEDAR-filed report).
HPQ Silicon Resources Inc. is a TSX-V listed resource company
planning to become a vertically integrated and diversified High Purity,
Solar Grade Silicon Metal (SoG Si) producer and a manufacturer of multi
and monocrystalline solar cells of the P and N types, required for
production of high performance photovoltaic conversion.
HPQ’s goal is to develop, in collaboration with industry leaders,
PyroGenesis (TSX-V: PYR) and Apollon Solar, that are experts in their
fields of interest, the innovative PUREVAPTM “Quartz Reduction Reactors
(QRR)â€, a truly 2.0 Carbothermic process (patent pending), which will
permit the transformation and purification of quartz (SiO2) into high
purity silicon metal (Si) in one step and reduce by a factor of at least
two-thirds (2/3) the costs associated with the transformation of quartz
(SiO2) into SoG Si. The pilot plant equipment that will validate the
commercial potential of the process is on schedule to start mid-2019.

Intends to distribute 25,611,487 common shares in the capital of Sensor Technologies Corp. to shareholders of the Corporation by way of a return of capital.
The Sensor Shares will be distributed to resident holders of IntellaEquity , shares will be paid on the basis of one (1) Sensor Share for every one (1) IntellaEquity shares outstanding.
IntellaEquity shareholders are not required to pay for the Sensor Shares they receive by way of the Distribution
Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – December 12, 2018) –
IntellaEquity Inc. (CSE: IEQ) (the “Corporation” or “IntellaEquity”)
announces today that it intends to distribute an aggregate of 25,611,487
common shares (the “Sensor Shares”) in the capital of Sensor
Technologies Corp. (“Sensor”) to shareholders of the Corporation by way
of a return of capital.
The Sensor Shares will be distributed to resident holders of
IntellaEquity shares (the “Distribution”). The Distribution will be paid
on the basis of one (1) Sensor Share for every one (1) IntellaEquity
shares outstanding. The Distribution will be completed through two (2)
distributions, one distribution of 12,805,743 Sensor Shares and the
second distribution of 12,805,744 Sensor Shares. The first distribution
will be distributed to holders of IntellaEquity shares on record as of
close of business January 15, 2019. The record date of the second
distribution will be fixed by the board of directors of the Corporation.
IntellaEquity shareholders are not required to pay for the Sensor
Shares they receive by way of the Distribution, to tender or surrender
their IntellaEquity shares, or to take any other action in connection
with the Distribution, other than providing a declaration of residency.
No Sensor Shares will be issued to shareholders who are (or are
deemed to be) non-residents of Canada. Rather, such Sensor Shares will
be delivered to a custodian and non-residents will be required to
forward to the custodian the amount of withholding tax that such
shareholder is required to pay. In the event that the shareholder does
not forward such amount, the custodian shall retain such number of
Sensor Shares necessary to cover the amount of the withholding tax
payable. The balancer of the Sensor Shares will be forwarded to the
shareholder.
Shareholders who fail to provide a declaration of Canadian residency
in the form that will be provided will be deemed to be a non-resident
for these purposes. Canadian shareholders who hold their shares in the
Corporation through a brokerage or other account are therefore urged to
contact their brokers to avoid being deemed a non-resident.
The Corporation also announces that it has amended the exercise price
and extended the expiry date of the 994,000 outstanding common share
purchase warrants (the “Warrants”) of the Corporation, which were issued
in connection with a private placement completed on December 18, 2015.
Each Warrant, as amended, entitles the holder thereof to purchase one
common share of the Corporation at any time until the close of business
on December 18, 2020 at an exercise price of $0.10 per common share.
The Warrants will be amended, effective December 18, 2018, to amend
the exercise price of the warrants from $1.50 to $0.10 and to extend the
term of such warrants from December 18, 2018 to December 18, 2020. All
other provisions of the Warrants will remain the same. Insiders of the
Corporation do not hold any of the outstanding Warrants.

Brazilian pre-operational miner Sigma Lithium Resources expects the premium for high-quality lithium hydroxide monohydrate that goes into battery production to rise in the next few years while demand for electric vehicles (EVs) grows, vice-chairman Ana Cabral told Fastmarkets.
“We believe prices for technical grade lithium hydroxide, at 56.5%, will fall further from now on, but premium for 90% content and beyond are set to increase as the material starts going into EV battery output,†she said.

Brazilian pre-operational miner Sigma Lithium Resources expects the
premium for high-quality lithium hydroxide monohydrate that goes into
battery production to rise in the next few years while demand for
electric vehicles (EVs) grows, vice-chairman Ana Cabral told
Fastmarkets.
“We believe prices for technical grade lithium hydroxide, at 56.5%,
will fall further from now on, but premium for 90% content and beyond
are set to increase as the material starts going into EV battery
output,†she said.
Fastmarkets assessed spot 56.5% lithium hydroxide prices in China
at 105,000-115,000 yuan ($15,209-16,658) per tonne on December 6,
unchanged from a week before but lower than this year’s peak of
148,000-153,000 yuan per tonne on January 11.
“Battery makers are increasingly looking for low-impurity, high-content
lithium, and being able to deliver this product right now is key in our
industry,†Cabral said. “We aim to produce refined material with high
grades, and you can count on your fingers how many companies, mostly in
Australia, do that.â€
Sigma Lithium owns a spodumene pegmatite
mine in Brazil’s Vale do Jequitinhonha, a region in the southeastern
state of Minas Gerais whose GDP per capita ranks as the 121st lowest out
of 137 meso-regions.
The company aims to start industrial
operations in the fourth quarter of 2019 and produce 240,000 tonnes per
year of spodumene concentrates (6-8% lithium oxide) by 2020, in “phase
2†of the plant.
A pilot 12,000-tpy capacity, or phase 1, is
currently in place, meant for product approvals from clients while the
miner finishes a feasibility study for the project. The study is
scheduled to be finished by February 2019, Cabral said.
Japanese trader Mitsui has agreed to buy a third of initial commercial
output in the second phase of operations, for $30 million, with an
option to maintain its 33% proportion at a possible phase 3. A
pre-payment will be done as soon as the feasibility study is ready,
allowing the company to finance the start-up.
“We have
continued discussing other offtake and similar agreements,†Cabral said.
“There are more traders that wish to secure their supply, but we want
to close deals with different types of companies and geographies, to
diversify our portfolio.â€

MDSAP Certification Completion Will Expand Market Access to CardioComm’s Medical Devices and Software
Completed its ISO 13485:2016 certification in compliance with the Medical Device Single Audit Program, which is now mandatory under Health Canada requirements and recommended by the USA Food and Drug Administration
CardioComm completing MDSAP for both Canada and the USA, solidifies the Company’s abilities to continue to produce and sell its Global ECG Management System software globally
Toronto, Ontario–(December 12, 2018) – CardioComm Solutions, Inc.(TSXV: EKG) (“CardioComm” or the “Company“), a leading global provider of consumer heart monitoring and electrocardiogram (“ECG“) acquisition and management software solutions, has completed its ISO 13485:2016 (“ISO“) certification in compliance with the Medical Device Single Audit Program (“MDSAP“), which is now mandatory under Health Canada requirements and recommended by the USA Food and Drug Administration (“FDA“).
CardioComm completing MDSAP for both Canada and the USA, solidifies
the Company’s abilities to continue to produce and sell its Global ECG
Management System (“GEMS™”) software globally.
CardioComm is also a preferred importer, distributor and reseller of
hospital and consumer ECG medical devices for organizations based
outside of Canada such as the USA, China and Singapore.
Manufacturers of Class II, III, and IV medical devices, whether based
in Canada or elsewhere, must report to the Canadian Medical Devices
Bureau that they have either passed, or initiated the transition to an
MDSAP audit by December 31, 2018. Failure to do so will result in
manufacturers losing their medical device licences and the rights to
have their products imported into or sold into Canada. As of November
14, 2018, only two-thirds of the medical device companies that sell into
Canada have signed up for MDSAP (Quality Digest, 11/14/2018).
This situation may cause a shortage of medical products available to
health care providers and consumers in Canada (Globe and Mail 05/09/2018).
With ISO under MDSAP, CardioComm has confirmed that it may contract
with other medical devices makers that sell into Canada, but have
decided not to renew their ISO medical device certification under the
more stringent and costly MDSAP standard. Under this scenario,
CardioComm can place non-MDSAP ISO-certified devices under the Company’s
own MDSAP certification for a fee, gaining sole distribution rights for
device sales in Canada and ensuring that established and emerging sales
channels have continued access to needed medical devices. One such
example involves the recent application for FDA 510(k) clearance of the
HeartCheck™ CardiBeat by CardioComm on behalf of the original equipment
manufacturer. While ISO under MDSAP is not required in the USA,
CardioComm’s Canadian/USA MDSAP certification is accepted by the FDA and
removes the need for routine FDA inspections. This certification will
also help newly FDA-cleared products when applying for Health Canada
medical device clearances.

regarding HeartCheck™ ECG device integrations, please visit the
Company’s websites at www.cardiocommsolutions.com and www.theheartcheck.com.
