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.
This is comprised of awarded and not executed work, made up of a combination of service contracts and project work in both HVAC Building Automation and Mechanical lines of business.
We sat down with Frank Carnevale, CGO of Universal Proptech, to talk about their multimillion-dollar backlog. Check out the full interview below.

HPQ Silicon Resources $HPQ $HPQFF is a Quebec-based company that is developing a portfolio of high value-added silicon products sought after by battery and electric vehicle manufacturers.
If that sounds a lot like what other small companies are saying lately, $HPQ differentiates itself as a leader of the pack thanks to the following:
To understand the importance and the implications of this milestone, this excerpt from the press release says it all:
” Demand for higher purity Silicon, materials that the PUREVAP QRR was designed to produce – but one that traditional silicon producers have a difficult time making, is about to enter a massive growth phase, driven by worldwide demand from the silicones, solar, and batteries industries. The Covid-19 pandemic accelerated the closing of old inefficient traditional Silicon plants and combining this with the chronic under investment in new conventional Silicon plants that occurred in the past decade, and the need for more efficient and environmentally friendly processes has created a perfect storm for the industry. HPQ should be a key beneficiary of this new reality.”
Today, thanks to HPQ’s great progress on its silicon mission, the Company announced “An Agreement to Develop a New Environmentally Friendly Process to Manufacture Fumed Silica” What is Fumed Silica? Suffice it to say, it is in heavy demand right now but current producers are going to run into strong environmental “ESG” headwinds as the industry is now moving towards clean and verified Fumed Silica that HPQ Silicon believes it will be able to deliver thanks to its powerful relationship with ESG driven PyroGenesis Canada. The market for Fumed Silica is set to hit $USD 2.2 Billion in 2022 and CEO Tourillon wasn’t shy about his confidence in the Company’s potential to win market share with this quote:
““The business opportunity that this represent should not be underestimated and could be as significant as the ones represented by the PUREVAP™ family of processes we are developing with PyroGenesis”

When the Facebook data privacy scandal broke out, the world woke up to just how badly our individual data was being traded, used and most importantly, the amount of profit being generated by major corporations at our expense.
This led to the enactment of the biggest data privacy laws in history. Specifically, General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) out of Europe and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
Enter $LQID. The Company Turns The Problem Of Data Privacy Into A Profit For Individuals, While Providing Big Businesses With New & Compliant Business Models.
More than just lip service, $LQID has made some major announcements, including joining the Trust Over IP Foundation, which includes over 170 members including IBM, Mastercard, Accenture and many other global leaders who are defining a complete architecture for Internet-scale digital trust.
Does that sound like a mouthful? Yeah, it does. But all you have to really understand for now is that digital ID, privacy and monetization is going to become a reality in the very near future. Government regulations are enforcing it. Consumers are demanding it and $LQID is delivering it at such an advanced scale that the Trust Over IP Foundation provided them with a strategic role as a Steering Member.
If that wasn’t enough proof for you, Google validated the $LQID business model with this stunning announcement at the beginning of March:
Google believes these types of tracking methods don’t “meet rising consumer expectations for privacy, nor will they stand up to rapidly evolving regulatory restrictions, and therefore aren’t a sustainable long term investment.”
Google is experimenting with tools in its Privacy Sandbox that are designed to allow advertising to continue to work on the web but in a less privacy-encroaching way.
“Keeping the internet open and accessible for everyone requires all of us to do more to protect privacy — and that means an end to not only third-party cookies, but also any technology used for tracking individual people as they browse the web,” David Temkin, Google’s director of product management for ads privacy and trust,
What is the potential outcome of this major shift by Google?
“Google’s decision could upend the ad industry, which has relied on these types of tracking tools”
$LQID is now ready to capitalize on all pipeline and future commercialization opportunities.Watch this great interview with CEO David Lucatch for an even deeper discussion into what this all means for $LQID and YOU.
Our CEO Yaron Conforti and CMO Reid Robison discuss the news of our clinic expansion and how this further develops our model for scaling across the U.S.
Our Chief Operating Officer speaks with the Wall Street Reporter about our clinic expansion, the key drivers of our growth, and the importance of set and setting in our clinics.
In a soon-to-be-published study, MDMA and therapy are showing promising results in the treatment of PTSD, with over 67 percent of participants no longer qualifying for a diagnosis two months after treatment.
Long misunderstood, psychedelics are back in the spotlight as more and more research is being done on the efficacy and positive mental health benefits they hold.

Electronic decoy product advances to sponsorship and evaluation with U.S. military and another NATO nation
Announced the award of U.S. patent 10,969,467 B1 for Programmable Multi-Waveform RF Generator for Use as Battlefield Decoy
This patent is one of the core technologies of the Company’s PhantomTM electronic decoy, as described in the press releases of October 5th and December 30th, 2020
Ottawa, Ontario–(April 20, 2021) – KWESST Micro Systems Inc. (TSXV: KWE) (OTCQB: KWEMF) (“KWESST” or “the Company”) today announced the award of U.S. patent 10,969,467 B1 for Programmable Multi-Waveform RF Generator for Use as Battlefield Decoy. This patent is one of the core technologies of the Company’s PhantomTM electronic decoy, as described in the press releases of October 5th and December 30th, 2020.
In conjunction with the patent award, the Company confirmed that the PhantomTM system has just been selected in defence and innovation programs for evaluation, including a U.S. Special Operations Command program, and has been prequalified for government funding with an estimated initial value of approximately $1 million once approved.
“Apart from the potential near-term dollars involved, this qualification and invitation to participate in trials with key agencies in the U.S. and another NATO country signals serious interest in the PhantomTM system,” said Jeff MacLeod, KWESST Founder, President and CEO. He adds that, “These concurrent developments also appear likely to accelerate the pace of market uptake. Accordingly, with the upcoming close of our $4 million financing announced April 9, 2021 we will be prioritizing the productization of PhantomTM to be in the market sooner than originally planned.”
The Company stated that there is growing interest among NATO and partner countries for a tactical electronic decoy to prevent adversaries from locating and targeting friendly forces. This growing interest stems from incidents like one publicly reported in the 2016 where two full Ukrainian mechanized battalions were annihilated by Russian adversaries in three minutes with precision mass fire after locating them based on their electronic signal emissions.
About the PhantomTM electronic decoy PhantomTM is a compact, lightweight electromagnetic transmitter capable of mimicking the electromagnetic signature of a tactical military unit, fooling adversaries as to the location of NATO and partner nation forces. Recent interest from NATO agencies and defence contractors for this product has resulted in KWESST moving up the scheduled production of demonstration samples of PhantomTM in the Company’s priorities. An earlier prototype version of PhantomTM was procured and successfully trialed in military exercises. The latest version is more compact, with greater capability, and is soldier-portable or can be deployed by Unmanned Aerial Systems (“UAVs” or “drones”). Based on internal research the Company estimates the market for a system like PhantomTM to be worth several hundred million dollars in the U.S. alone.
