Datamerex (DM:TSXV) has the rare benefit that most small cap companies would only dream of …. 2 successful independent divisions that are each capable of being a company maker.
The first division is their Artificial Intelligence driven social media monitoring and discovery product … and this isn’t some basic social media monitoring tool for keywords. Clients include Canadian Federal Government, DRDC, Health Canada, United States Air Force and LOTTE (a $2.6B South Korean multinational conglomerate.
As a result of the highest level security clearances required to do this level of work, Datametrex was well positioned with deep roots in South Korea to add their second, though unintended division of COVID-19 test kit distribution. Again, this isn’t some small cap stretch trying to capitalize on a trend for the sake of stock promotion. Rather, when the Canadian Government came calling for assistance in importing and distributing COVID-19 test kits, Datametrex stepped up to the task thanks to its security clearances already in place in both countries.
Since then, the company has signed multiple multi-million dollar COVID-19 test kit supply agreements with mining companies, a $20M CAD agreement with the television and film industry and various educational institutions.
As a result, Datametrex has had its’ best year ever in the first 3 quarters of 2020 as follows:
Record revenue of $7.6 million for the nine-month 2020 period compared to $2.6 in 2019
Record revenue of $4.9 million was generated in Q3
First ever positive EBIDTA quarter
If that wasn’t enough, they started off 2021 by announcing the following:
Sold over 23,000 onsite tests for the film industry at locations in Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver for the months of October through December 2020. This represents approximately $4,000,000 CAD in top-line revenue for Q4
Datametrex Providing COVID-19 Testing for Air Canada Front-Line and Inflight Employees
Binding LOI to acquire 100% of Concierge Medical Consultant Inc. a private telehealth and medical concierge services company currently generating revenue through a direct-to-consumer subscription model
Watch this powerful interview with CEO Marshall Gunter to discuss the year that was … and why he’s so optimistic about 2021.

Most of us know drones as cool toys flying around the neighbourhood, 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 now testing ways to:
Use drones to provide Internet connections in remote locations.
Use drones to collect crowd data.
….. And there’s even a start-up that’s using drones to deliver tacos to your door.
In short, the drone industry is booming in ways people can’t imagine because the industry is shifting from the drones (hardware) to data … and one company is already ahead of the shift … DraganFly (DFLY: CSE) (DFLYF:OTCQB) (3U8:FSE)
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)
Detect infectious conditions in a person from a distance of 190 feet
Conduct phenotyping, data collection and analysis by the USDA
With all of this under the Company’s belt, it’s easy to see why CEO Chell believes DFLY will become one of the top 3 drone companies in the world and why they have now begun the process of listing on NASDAQ.
If you believe in the massive parabolic growth in the use of drones for almost everything we do in this world, or are just learning, then watch / listen to this powerful interview with Draganfly CEO and Chairman, Cameron Chell.
