Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:33 AM on Wednesday, September 29th, 2021

When 99.8% of investors read the headline to this press release, you couldn’t blame them for not understanding what it meant or how important it is to the future of POET Technologies 

 POET Technologies Launches Its Products and Optical Interposer Platform in China to Critical Acclaim 

But this is the great thing about AGORACOM Beyond The Press Release, which provides investors with a layman’s understanding  the importance of headlines like this to the business of $PTK …. 

Last week in China was an important one for $PTK.  The Company participated in two leading optoelectronics conferences / exhibitions in China at which they introduced POET to the China market (where most of the customers are), and demonstrated their technology across a range of products.

HOW WELL DID THE PRESENTATIONS GO?

That can easily be summarized by this powerful quote:

“The companies that attended the live demos now know who POET is and the significant value that we can provide to them.  We were already engaged with a few customers, such as Fibertop and their commitment to adopt POET optical engines in their optical modules is a breakthrough for us.  Other companies requested samples of our demonstrated products, and several more want to either engage in development contracts that would incorporate POET Optical Engines in their products or have POET incorporate their components into POET’s Optical Engines. Numerous opportunities for increased customer engagement in China, including with some of the largest players,” 

WHAT KIND OF COMPANIES DID POET MEET AND DEMO THEIR PRODUCTS TO IN CHINA

More than 60 C-level and senior R&D executives representing over 20 companies, including:

  • Major China-based network equipment suppliers
  • Tier 1 transceiver module companies
  • Leading optical module and fiber optic companies (several of which are publicly traded)
  • Data center operators … and 
  • Major multi-billion-dollar public enterprise companies seeking to expand into the optical transceiver business

You don’t have to be a computer scientist to understand the potential of these target markets. But you do have to watch this powerful interview in its entirety to understand the big picture.

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 4:36 PM on Wednesday, September 22nd, 2021

Most of us know drones for their recreational uses or perhaps even as simple commercial applications for things like real estate videos.  

But the fact of the matter is that drone usage is about to go parabolic with huge corporations adopting them for a wide-use of applications that most never dreamed of such as: 

  • To provide Internet connections in remote locations. 
  • To collect crowd data.
  • And now package delivery

According to the Drone Package Delivery Global Market Report 2021, the global drone package delivery market is expected to grow to nearly US$1 billion in 2021 at a compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) of 45.5%. In 2025, the market is expected to reach US$4.4 billion at a CAGR of 45.1%.

In short, the drone industry is booming in ways people can’t imagine because the industry is shifting from the drones themselves (hardware) to drone technology and solutions (software)… and the one company that is delivering the most challenging applications is Draganfly Inc. (DPRO: NASDAQ) (DPRO: CSE)

DraganFly is an award-winning drone manufacturer and technology developer that is actually delivering some pretty incredible achievements, milestones and even history:

  • Established in 1998 DFLY is considered the oldest commercial drone company in the world
  • Built the first drone that saved a life
  • Boasts the first drone to be inducted into the Smithsonian National Air & Space Museum
  • Developing a Vaccine Drone Delivery Payload System (it’s way more complicated than just transporting vaccines)

  • Conduct phenotyping, data collection and analysis by the USDA

With all of this under the Company’s belt, it’s easy to see why the company recently uplisted to the NASDAQ.
