Shifting Trends – CBD and The “Big Pharma”

  • According to a study, more than 42% of the people who use hemp-derived products and CBD have stooped using synthetic drugs and pharmaceuticals to tackle their medical conditions effectively
  • What this figure shows is a shift of consumers’ confidence towards these natural products rather than the synthetic ones

By: Jamie Moses

With the increasingly immense popularity of CBD and other hemp-based products, the role of naturally extracted medicine in the realm of the global medicinal industry and big pharmaceuticals is growing at a rapid rate. As various studies and researches have proven the beneficial medical impacts of these CBD compounds, their use for the purposes of health and wellbeing is becoming more and more popular. 

The battle between naturally extracted medicine and pharmaceuticals has always been a controversial debate. The role of big pharma” in health and the theories revolving around their shady impacts has always been contentious. Especially after the wide range popularity and cultivation of CBD and its products such as CBD oils, this issue has been highlighted even more. While the big pharma relies on chemicals and synthetics processes for their medicine to interact and work on the human body, natural medicine is more palatable and relies on its structure and nature to be able to bind with the targetted receptors of the body to provide satisfactory results. 

According to a study, more than 42% of the people who use hemp-derived products and CBD have stooped using synthetic drugs and pharmaceuticals to tackle their medical conditions effectively. What this figure shows is a shift of consumers’ confidence towards these natural products rather than the synthetic ones. But why is this change of dynamics occurring so suddenly after the discovery of CBD, when the use of herbal medicine is not at all a new trend and dates back many years? According to WHO, more than half of the world population already uses herbal means for their medical anomalies then why is the impact created by CBD so immense? The answer lies in its qualities and various medical benefits it imparts on the body with little or no side effects. The reasons why people are turning towards CBD oils and plant medicine are provided here.

High costs – Both financial and physical:

Pharmaceutical options may be more effective in terms of their selective activism and rapid action by IV fluids, but they come with a high price. Medical insurances and various critical condition drugs are almost too expensive for every citizen to get. This has created a trend among people to shift towards natural means of medicine and wellbeing and that is where CBD oil has been so much dominant. The lower production overheads and a non-monopolized market have kept the prices of these drugs quite lower as compared to the pharmaceuticals. 

Effectiveness:

According to a study, 52% of the people using CBD products daily or regular;y have reported these drugs to be more effective than the pharmaceuticals. The extended researches done have shown that the first-hand reactions of those people are in fact accurate and CBD really works better for them. It has to do with the fact that CBD oil can activate the ECS system of the body and can antagonize the CB1 and Cb2 receptors binding with them effects to provide good results. Moreover, the non-psychoactive nature of CBD means it does not get you “high: or mind-altered like other cannabis-derivatives THC.

Multi-purpose:

Various studies have shown that CBD is a medical marvel that can be used to treat various medical conditions. People are now using CBD Oil for pain, anxiety, depression, stress, insomnia, neurogenesis, anti-cancer treatments, skin condition, and even heart problems. With the recent researches proving the effectiveness of CBD in these medical anomalies and a wide range of consumption options available to the people, it is no shock that CBD products are upholding the drug market right now.

Side-effects:

According to a study conducted over a span of 30 years gathering information from various hospitals, almost 7% of the people using big pharma drugs are likely to have serious reactions to the medicines and require immediate medical attention. Many more have mild to low side effects after using these pharmaceuticals. This has also caused the people to start using alternatives and look for safer and natural options. 

Final thoughts:

Although the medical effectiveness and easy access is a major factor in the favor of cannabis products, the lingering confusion regarding its legal status and dosage regulations still cause hurdles in the way. With the recent law changes, the hemp cultivation has seen an uprise and only by educating people more can this industry of herbal medicine become more effective and provide for the betterment of mankind.

  • Partnership to provide an end-to-end COVID-19 mitigation solution complete with venue tracing, real-time automated guest exposure notifications, and frequent testing with rapid results in 15 minutes.
  • Together, Loop and Empower have created a system built on the pillars of:
  • Venue tracing
  • Frequent testing with rapid results
  • Real-time reporting to ensure the travel bubble provides end-to-end protection

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 19, 2020 — Loop Insights Inc. (MTRX:TSXV) (RACMF:OTCQB) (the “Company” or “Loop”), a provider of contactless solutions and artificial intelligence (“AI”) to drive real-time insights, enhanced customer engagement and automated contact tracing to the brick and mortar space, is pleased to announce a partnership with Empower Clinics (CBDT:CSE) (EPWCF:OTC) (8EC:FRA) to provide an end-to-end COVID-19 mitigation solution complete with venue tracing, real-time automated guest exposure notifications, and frequent testing with rapid results in 15 minutes.

TRAVEL BUBBLE SOLUTION SOLVES CURRENT QUARANTINE REQUIREMENTS THAT ARE SHUTTING DOWN INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL
As a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic, mandatory 14 day quarantine periods, and the lack of any travel bubble solutions that could reliably track and mitigate the global spread of the virus by plane or cruise ship, countries have been forced to take drastic measures that are leading to significant damage of the global travel industry.

Specifically, as of today, travel restrictions by country are as follows:

  • 58 countries are completely closed
  • 124 countries are partially open with MANDATORY quarantine upon arrival

(Source – https://www.ca.kayak.com/travel-restrictions)

Together, Loop and Empower have created a system built on the pillars of:

  • Venue tracing
  • Frequent testing with rapid results
  • Real-time reporting to ensure the travel bubble provides end-to-end protection

Empower’s rapid antigen and antibody tests produce results in only 15 minutes, providing airlines, cruise ships, and the 182 countries currently in full or partial shutdown with the safety and security necessary to reopen their borders to international travel fully.

Moreover, Empower owns KAI Medical Laboratory, a high-complexity CLIA and COLA accredited laboratory that provides reliable and accurate testing solutions to enterprise level clients, hospitals, medical clinics, pharmacies, and employer groups.

KAI has taken an active role in COVID-19 testing, battling the pandemic through RT-PCR testing and serology testing with the capacity to process 4,000 RT-PCR test specimens per day. COVID-19 RT-PCR testing is the gold standard due to its high degree of accuracy and will play an important role in the Travel Bubble solution.

As the front-facing part of the Travel Bubble solution, Loop Insights is a powerful Artificial Intelligence company whose industry-leading venue tracing has gained significant traction towards reopening the tourism, hospitality, and entertainment industries in the United States with the likes of University of Houston and the NCAA Basketball #VegasBubble, as well as, recently being recognized by TELUS as one of the most advanced IoT solutions in the world for their customers.

Loop Insights CEO Rob Anson stated: “We have heard from stakeholders in the entertainment, travel, and hospitality industries that have stressed the importance of an end-to-end integrated solution capable of protecting employees and customers to facilitate a safe economic recovery. In partnership with Empower’s rapid testing technology, Loop has established a comprehensive solution capable of establishing a travel bubble and reopening a significant portion of the global economy.”

Steven McAuley, Chairman and CEO of Empower Clinics, stated: “As we expand our efforts on the Get Back To Work testing initiative, it has become apparent that businesses of all types, large or small, private or public sector require not only fast and accurate COVID-19 testing, but also a comprehensive solution for contact tracing. Establishing a partnership with Loop, working with the RT-PCR and rapid testing capabilities of Kai Medical, allows our companies together to establish a safe and viable economic recovery solution.”

AIR CANADA ADVOCATES FOR TEST-BASED APPROACH AND DROPPING 14-DAY MANDATORY QUARANTINE
The Travel Bubble solution comes at a time when both major industry participants and economic experts are calling for solutions beyond quarantining to reopen industries and stave off economic collapse.

On October 6th, Air Canada (AC:TSX) (ACDVF:OTCQX) called for increased testing in lieu of mandatory quarantine periods,

We believe that a test-based strategy may be a safe alternative to the 14-day quarantine.”

On October 15, 2020 a panel of Canadian economists proclaimed the “economy must remain open despite second wave” or suffer the very likely outcome of bankruptcies and business closures “with hospitality, travel and tourism set for the harshest impact.”

By providing testing, tracking, and real-time reporting, Loop and Empower have created a safe and secure Travel Bubble solution to allow enterprise level businesses to return to full operations, particularly those in the hospitality, travel, and live entertainment industries.

$3.3 TRILLION IN LOSSES FOR GLOBAL TOURISM INDUSTRY

Without a solution to replace the drastic travel measures currently in place around the world, the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) reported that COVID-19 may cost the world tourism sector losses of US$ 3.3 trillion.

In Canada alone, according to Statista, the Canadian tourism industry contributed close to $40 billion to the economy in 2019. This year, the COVID-19 pandemic has had devastating consequences for the industry.

Loop and Empower believe the Travel Bubble combination of frequent testing and a robust international tracing platform provides the end-to-end protection necessary to spark a strong global economic recovery.

Augmented Reality’s Applications And Future In Business

  • AR market alone is estimated to grow to $61.39 billion by 2023
  • To meet the growing demand, an ecosystem of AR devices powered by platforms being developed by IT giants is evolving rapidly
  • AR has now arrived in the industrial mainstream

Gautam Goswami Forbes Councils Member

Early versions of extended reality devices, or XR, began appearing years ago, as consumer gaming platforms. Nintendo’s pioneering 1995 Virtual Boy console was touted as “a 3-D game for a 3-D world!” But within months, it had become a marketplace flop.

Even so, the development of the two primary XR formats, virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), never stopped. Today, 25 years after Virtual Boy, forward-looking investors have been encouraged by a strong interest in XR systems from major tech companies. Both technologies enhance the user’s visual world. But they work in different ways, and over time, the two have evolved in different directions.

With VR, the user wears a pair of goggles that display a world in which every image has either been captured on film, synthesized electronically or merged through a combination of the two. 

With AR, the images are seen using a smartphone, a tablet or special glasses. The basis of this imagery is whatever is seen by the device’s camera, with real-time overlays of computer-generated 2D, 3D and text, simulated by computer or from the remote input of another user.

One of AR’s biggest splashes happened in 2016 when Nintendo released its Pokémon Go game. It brought the magic of AR to millions around the world for the first time and helped to legitimize its use in everyday life.

Leading global corporations, including Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Sony and Samsung, are already spending hundreds of millions of dollars on the development of both AR and VR. And the AR market alone is estimated to grow to $61.39 billion by 2023.

AR’s Practical Uses In Business Today 

AR applications seem to have evolved toward more practical business applications. For example, sportswear company Lacoste has an app that allows in-store shoppers to place their foot on a designated spot to view the shoes of their choice through their smartphone, showing product details, custom sizes and how it would look on the customer. And The New York Times used an AR app in connection with its 2018 Winter Olympics coverage to allow users to bring up athletes on the screen to explain their maneuvers just as those moves were taking place.

The latest Apple iPad and Google smartphones feature enhanced AR capabilities through advances in camera technologies. And applications from companies like Warby Parker (virtual eyeglasses try-on) and IKEA (virtual furniture placement in rooms), among others, are providing enhanced AR experiences without the need for specialized hardware. 

Further, until this year, the primary method for installing or repairing a complex piece of industrial machinery was to have an expert from the machine’s original equipment manufacturer (OEM) jump on a plane and fly out to service the company’s equipment on site. Then Covid-19 hit. One of its many consequences has been a sharp reduction in business travel. But the need to service sophisticated industrial equipment in factories, airline hangars, power plants, offshore oil platforms and other continuously operated facilities hasn’t declined.

At TeamViewer, one of our solutions is remote virtual assistance and visual instructions enabled by AR. For many of the business leaders I’ve spoken with recently, AR has been the key solution for their equipment repairs during this time. 

The way this type of AI solution works is a technician at the facility, using only a smartphone with an AR app, can point their camera toward the machine while an expert views that image on their own device. Using a variety of techniques to highlight critical features of that image, including drop arrows, finger-drawn circles, graphics, colors, text, Internet of Things (IoT) data and more, the expert can talk the on-site technician through diagnostics, repair procedures, replacement part identification and any other support needed to enable on-site personnel and enhance the facility’s workflow. Sessions can be easily recorded and retained for step-by-step training and instruction for real-time use in similar situations at other locations.

The Future Of AR In Workforce Training

The way I see it, the AR capability is particularly important now due to the industrial world’s shifting workforce demographics. For one thing, many technically skilled workers are aging out of the workforce. As they leave, the decades of experience and expertise they had accumulated leave with them. Those who replace them, including millennials, contractors and workers retrained and recruited from other industries, simply don’t have the experience of older workers and, in many cases, can be more difficult to retain.

Despite the much-touted journeys of digital transformation being undertaken by many companies, when it comes to their operations on the factory floor, manual manufacturing techniques often still rely on legacy tools and methods to capture information and share knowledge. A 2018 white paper by ARC Advisory Group noted that most workers on the factory floor remain disconnected from the rich informational ecosystem that the rest of the organization has come to rely on. By adopting AR solutions, the paper states, manufacturing organizations can empower their factory workers in training and guidance applications.

By integrating AR, you can lead your team toward the democratization of knowledge and solve a key roadblock shared by logistics, manufacturing and field service: the experience gap. Based on my perspective in the industry, AR has moved well beyond the proof-of-concept stage, particularly where it involves guided manual assembly and maintenance. Using it, we can equip our young employees and newcomers to perform complex tasks, leading to reduced costs, higher quality and increased on-time delivery. 

To meet the growing demand, an ecosystem of AR devices powered by platforms being developed by IT giants is evolving rapidly. AR has now arrived in the industrial mainstream. In the next few years, I believe we will see it grow exponentially, transforming business processes and mitigating the knowledge gap resulting from today’s retiring generation of experienced workers.

Welcome to beyond the press release of production of AGORACOM in which we take the time to speak with small cap executives right after the put up port news and today is a big one it’s out of the loop insights trades on the TSX venture the stock symbol MTRX with us today is Rob Anson CEO of the company for those who knew the story and that’s gonna be a lot of help because the nature of the press with today and the volume that attracted the market’s loop essentially is a provider of contactless solutions and artificial intelligence to the brick and mortar world helping drive real time insights enhanced engagement and automated contact tracing and they put all that together so that’s led to 2 powerful revenue streams first was on the contact tracing side they bargain out deals at the university of Houston Las Vegas bubble up big flagship properties in Las Vegas and more then there’s also the artificial intelligence marketing side where they announced a pilot agreement with America’s largest CBD retailer for 20 to 500 stores a pilot we would tell us for 3 other flagship locations and then this morning stockholders tell us and I’m gonna read the headline for you loop insights accepted into Telus Iot. market place for national sales and marketing to tell us business customers across the country huge news rob welcome back man yeah thanks George. But before I dive into any details about you know this this new agreement this new this new this new relationship would tell us. This is made major news number 2 between you and tell us how big is this first. For the company in terms of validation and technology validation how then how big is this is for shareholders for empty for the empty are ex out of the company. Yes so I mean it’s the same side as we have discussed before George third party validations everything you know for us as a young company you know this seeing the penetration that we’re getting in the U. S. obviously the position with Amazon and APN network was a big part of these you know fortune 600 introductions and they bring the credibility as you know we are young company and people just learning now you looking sites really is you know from a Canadian perspective now having our largest telco telus plan associated to the products and marketing and opening the doors it is game changing for loop and and shareholders most definitely and I want to make sure people understand the magnitude of this it could even of the settle headline says accepted to Telus IoT. marketplace this is centrally is for the whole basket everything Luke does tell this is not gonna be selling to their customers across the country. Yes is the same before we’ve got our our full B. device and our data analytics insights component are automated marking in the pilot that’s ongoing right now and doing extremely well as we come to wrap that up here next month. You know the contact tracing venue tracing is obviously front center I mean we’re a little more fortunate out here in BC but these calls now with everything being shut down again and closing the economy that’s not an option and you know it is going to have to re open here and Lucas transformative gateway and it is in our conversations with the government level now that’s exactly what it’s about is not just a band aid we’ve captured huge interest now the provincial and federal level based upon our ability to apply the data across a multitude of different touch points and now whether it’s health care whether it’s the contact tracing federal for you know whether it’s more vehicle branch our ability to tie it all together is what’s putting us in these positions and very proud excited out tell us a wave and then the live like when making key interactions to us then for everyone at home what I love so much about what Luke does is it’s not just contact tracing it’s not just some marketing enhancement the contact tracing is almost you know the first door and you know we all have to have that but then while it’s there loop uses that to help enhance your retailers government any form of business enterprise to then further transact with me and and not just transactional but Hey George likes this artificial intelligence picking up this with George like let’s off from this so it’s all close down which means greater safety for everybody and greater revenue for the venue’s government businesses that that need it let’s talk about tell us now rob. Why did you choose tell us or that the child was chose you ought you know how to white white tell us a loop. What is tell us is obviously is important to us for many reasons I have a family history my godfather was actually former presencia a BC tel which was acquired you as part of the deal will tell us back then so it’s very interesting time from that aspect in one of our board members it was key in implementing this tell us introduction Peter green. Course with his history would tell us is unparalleled so it was a no brainer for us on many different levels and as we talked about the innovation what Luke brings to the table and transcending IoT. space in itself are offering a new exciting product it’s multi faceted and unparalleled in the current IT space was as we see now they’ve they’ve been quite excited about it and relationship continues to grow and grow and is let’s get more exciting yeah look I’ve been doing this for 20 years it’s a very rare when a small cap company gets one deal of any kind does with a global with a national powerhouse and and again I’m not a monster company like tell us one let alone 2 and moving the relationship forward what do you think and I you have yet to gas and and maybe from your conversation tell us what’s driving it from their side to be parting with loops so quickly moving forward is that because they’re seeing the economy shutting down business shutting down everything shutting down and they know that they need a solution now to get out to their customers you think that’s the big driver here well part of it George I mean what we do is completely relevant today right course did the other side of it though it is telling us is always looking and reading when it comes to innovation and providing value to their business customers so it it’s it’s good to win win that alternately providing value solving problems for their customers and further entrenching yeah the tallest Brandon product offering and terming sticky. A new line revenues for them as well to their shareholders and more importantly right now today is going to be putting our name and stab together on some of these huge venue tracing opportunities but some very significant players. Tell us didn’t just hand this to you though obviously you know in the small cap world we know the gravity of the loop’s technology and solutions and we’ve seen the names university of Houston all on and on so we won’t go through all those but I’m sure Luke yeah we’re sold out of the loop I had to but tell us how to make a jump through some hoops so what was it like in order to get you know the relationship to this to this level because they they’ve got privacy concerns I got all sorts of concerns what how rigorous was it to get to this point. It is about 7 months you know data privacy security product all of all of the audits here is a big deal and much like went through the Amazon as well of course but you know at the end of the day you know we’ve architected our solution in a manner that checks all the boxes and now from a health standpoint in something other projects and events that are about to unfold here puts us in a tremendous opportunity and consistent into other opportunities that are in verticals that’s and I never even thought of. So just really speaks to the agility of the solution and providing value and relevancy to the loop shareholders of course and tell us as long. I commend tell us for kind of being first to the table because it usually one massive hurdle for George com software to get it to get on the table is something who else is using you and say well nobody you be the first and nobody wants to be the first tells dad hats off to them but now if there’s one thing I know about that world the the that enterprise world as they play follow the leader a lot what kind of example do you think this relationship brings to I know it I mean you announced already that you could talk to 2 major telecoms again 2 major telecoms U. S. what does this do for advancing all the relationships that need that that you’ve been managing for the last few months yeah you’re you’re right no no one wants to be first that is the biggest the biggest challenge by by far in in the beginning and I’m extremely appreciative for tell us and what they’ve done hi Andrew Turner played a big part of it their director striding items he you know it it is for site to see where we can take can enhance what they have today extremely appreciative for that what it’s done is it’s just that it’s brought credibility there’s a lot of eyeballs now waiting to see where we go outside of our pilots where now this agreement takes it about a couple calls already from some of the others that we’ve previously spoken with and it’s kind of a formal if you will right everyone to your point follow the leader they are very much like sheep and that’s what was exciting to me that tell us is so innovative and looking to transcend IT space and Michael cera and all of their team there is tremendous leadership and I’m very proud to be part of that and I got to read you broadband or Turner so I just kind of scroll down on the press release here and I’ve got to read this quote because it’s one thing for Lupin agora com. To do a a partnership together to announce partnership and you say great things about me and I said great things about you we expect that you know these massive companies like tell us they don’t they don’t say things lightly 9 they’re they’re not in the business of of of just pumping your tyres just because so I want to read this this Amanda Turner tells VP of strategic operations by it doesn’t get much better than that he said by partnering with innovative and leading I’ll T. development company such as loop were insuring that our customers have access some of the most advanced I OT. business solutions in the world I mean I know how cool and calm you are and how call for you’ve been in your technology from day one yeah we met and well before that obviously but does that still give you goosebumps is still make you kind of you know. Bench yourself when you hear something like that from the likes of Dallas. He yeah for sure I mean it’s it’s you know it’s it’s nice to hear and I mean I don’t do this for compliments you know this is an exciting but it is 1 of many deals that were working on at this size and magnitude and larger quite honestly so for me it’s all about and even process hi George you know it’s another piece of the puzzle and road map in it all out patient switch so as I’m getting older is something I’ve learned and that these things take time and of course you know a lot of investors expect everything overnight but you know put a side by side of many small cap stock the 2 year you know in the trading history and look into what we brought to the table our future is extremely bright well generally speaking you’re right investors from apple down to the tiniest micro cap want things to happen quickly I gotta tell ya I don’t know of anyone that’s complaining about loop though because the the speed that you guys been going or in 2020 I don’t think there’s anybody complaining in fact there by lot of people saying holy smokes get out how do we figure this fast yeah we’re just getting started I mean we we have an incredibly talented team you know I I’ve got some of the greatest tac engineers you know in the world clearly. This here in our front in our marketing team is is brilliant and and our sales in a recent edition of my Cannavaro RSVP now and you know down in the US is opening doors like no tomorrow you know we all we all work is is one and it truly is a team and family so what would be known students are you know it’s it’s pretty exciting to see what we’ve accomplished in a very short time but I mean we’re we’re just you know we kind of went from crawl to walk. We’re still in call mode you know we’re position now with 2021 it’s gonna be a lot of fun once we get to jogging so. Walter this much out here it looks like you’re full on Usain bolt’s sprinting all right so for for all and that’s our perception out here because the small cap world we don’t see many companies move this fast on the business side and it’s interesting to hear you say you’re still a crawl sent you saying we’re still the first anywhere just warming up. Why it is because I mean you know when you do partnerships like with NC double a and yes P. N. N. Japanese groups I mean it is just starting to evolve I mean then the pandemic you know there there’s no playbook here George right now this is all ad hoc an on the fly and it speaks volumes to what we are able to put together with you know Amazon web services and our tech team here to to create something literally overnight that now is having such an impact notice here in Canada but in the US it is it is I mentioned before it’s very difficult to you know I play cross border and you know just little company in Vancouver Canada is not transcending and providing these solutions to solve some of the largest players in the game. That’s what excites me. So here we are we’ve just started Q. 4 centrally right we’ve just started Q. 4 and you’ve announced the other kind of news that most couples would be envious of if they’re not if they announce it 12 months from now you know so you’re moving fast what’s the future road map with tell us because this is now this is a relation to class of number 2 and then maybe you know what’s the road map look at I’m not gonna ask for next 12 months that’s just to grab one of the next 3 to 6 months look like in terms of you know what you’re going after. Yeah health care is is huge part of it and it’s something that you know I haven’t spoke about before but it is something we’ve been working on hi there some very exciting opportunities that we’ve been presented with here in Canada and and the U. S. that we were looking to complete and that’s that’s that’s gonna be game changing you know those cell cycles are extremely long you know like I said with cold wet and the pandemic there the sense of urgency is and tremendously in the wind in our sails you know it’s. Things are typically we’re seeing 3 to 5 years cell cycles and just like with NC double a you know the these things here we’ve been out to close in 30 days 60 days in some cases so health care you will be one very interesting vend. Partnership issue will reseller some very exciting things that’ll be transpiring there as well and many different verticals and size and scale out where I’m very very excited about the George is with our our new deal that we signed for the UK and Europe was Steve gray we’ve got tremendous opportunity over there from a technical perspective as well actually tell us what time from a retail perspective our products are absolutely perfect for that marketplace and your retells customer base you know if that firm saw the press release but some of them just the biggest of the biggest names right. Us State Farm CST was truly a legend hi is probably one most well respected guys in the C. P. G. retail space so for him to actually approach us I didn’t go according Stevie knocked on our door while so I mean that’s that that got my juices flowing and excited because you know with his background with Tesco and Aldi I mean we’re talking huge huge chains are thousands and thousands of locations these are the quality of the leads that Steve puts us in front of right out of the gate so it’s it’s very exciting we’ll see some continued expansion Indonesia that’s going strongly wall we have got a chance talk about a lot yet but Australia New Zealand are another interesting opportunities that are ticking along nicely but loose loops technology is borderless right that there are no borders. Yeah no no most definitely and when you know it’s we’ll see as he said the next 12 months will now be leveraging these entrails and opportunities to take to the next level is he said no one likes to be first we’ve had some interesting groups in NC double a in. What would tell us and that’s been very fortunate for these kind of groups to step up and say yeah man let’s go you know either very exciting so we will see some huge rapid growth and some very big opportunities here or not we’re not done yet this is just the beginning and I think your you know so like I said I don’t. I don’t hang my hat on what we’ve done here is we’ve we’ve done literally nothing to date other than get going so that the fine now comes from my team building that commercialized product which they did and now leveraging each of these opportunities and you know he is I would say only successful as the 5 people you surround yourself with. You kind of average you know for us I’ve always conditions these channel reseller partners and best of breed partners and multitude of different industries because it’s it’s it’s the trusted sources the credibility and it’s the power and strength will we bring to that partnership from an execution standpoint now that transcends new line revenues for them and further enhances their existing relationships so will be extremely active here in the last quarter and then down the stretch as they say they come and and for those who are new to the story again because the yelled at because the headline today in the trading activities all no doubt their new people watching one thing about Luke’s partners we see small cap companies announced partnerships all the time you know George rob or partnering and then you don’t hear anything about it. In loops case they signed with vendor one the largest point of sale software companies in the world and within a month rob them 30 days to other customers were already look customers that select paid off immediately at the end and then BTG sports. Are you signed a partnership with the reseller partnership with and bam Las Vegas Bob Las Vegas bubble NC double I am G. am so what I what not only doing great things on the direct side really what I really like is you’re not just signing partnership for the sake of partnership you’re signing partnership people we’re gonna we’re going to deliver so I I’m can’t wait to see what SG retailed us. Yeah for sure I mean I don’t do deals for the sake of doing deals I mean I do deals to you know make money again position and strength and you know for us it’s all about execution and you know the one thing that I can say is that you know we we’ve we’ve walked the walk and talk the talk as they say right so you know I’m certainly confident we’re doing under fully understand what the opportunity where we’re headed and will continue to execute and our senior leadership team as I said is doing a fantastic job and we’re very excited for the last quarter. Well rob ended there and I’m gonna tell you the one thing I love about these videos is what comes through that you can’t see on a press release and that is the fact that despite. Signing this agreement announcing this news will the biggest enterprise the country. You look like we’re talking about you just went for a walk in the park and that kind of that kind of calm you know leadership is powerful the C. and and I love that that came through here for one say. Well there you go. For you at home you’ve been watching or it’s been listening in by podcast Robinson the CEO of loop insights to cover trades on the TSX venture exchange on the stock symbol M. T. R. X. matrix now we know that there’s a lot to swallow here because loop is a leading technology copper truly they are and you may not understand or grasp all that sought to do your due diligence get to gore calm get to the loop pub go to the profile section and we’ve really nicely kinda laid this out for you in layman’s terms to really get a better understanding of what Loop does that make sure you get over the website do some more due diligence because I’ve got a feeling if you do that your pride discovered your next great small cap company we love loop hope you feel the same thanks for joining us have a great day.

VIDEO – HPQ Silicon Is Able To Deliver The Carbon Coated Silicon Elon Musk, Tesla And Electric Battery Makers Are Seeking

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 4:50 PM on Thursday, October 15th, 2020

Welcome to beyond the press release a production in which we take the time to speak with small cap executive right after they put outnews and seems like we have in this guy here every week about Bernard troullion chairman CEO H. B. P. silicon the company trades on the bench from the stock symbol H. P. Q. for those who knew the story we got a ton of shareholders so we know the you know the story but there are a lot of new people constantly discovering HPQ generally speaking the Canadian producer was building our portfolio of high value specialty silicone products that are needed for the coming renewable energy revolution now a lot of companies have a lot of lip service and mapped out that might sound like jargon but the fact of matter is this H. becuz already announced not one but 2 NDAs with industry participants and last week announced that a major global auto manufacturer had requested samples and potentially even and potentially even a pre order up the headline today that we’re talking about HPQ proprietary nano silicon manufacturing process to incorporate the first ever one step capability of carbon coating metal silicon material as it is produced Bernard that’s a mouthful let’s talk about then how are you very well very well by the way it’s been 2 weeks okay so that’s got people like you I gave you 2 weeks break before came up when you press release I don’t. Popped up my I can’t escape you I thought you keep coming into my garage yeah by the road yeah so let’s talk about the importance of this because if you read it on its face you think all right you know they’re good we already do this great stuff with the nano silicon side and obviously NDA is the car manufacturer all of that so do you you just doesn’t do you doesn’t sound like a big deal but. The relevance of the quote musk also added that he would tackle one of the key downsides of using silicon inside and out by coating the silicon with elastic polymer coating and holding the still got together with the elastic binders salt is this coding Hey that important and be you doing it in one step is that a big game changer. Yes yes yes I’m. I absolutely don’t press release basically says you know there everybody knows there’s issue with silicone that’s what’s not to like while the press one of the first thing that really needs to be done in one of the first solution to resolve the issues going on which is what we’re doing and after. What the work of pyrogenesis is really in the engineering and there’s I’ve discovered or found out is there is a there is a way for us to do in the same process to encapsulate it into carbon so basically that’s that’s what it is it’s it’s true strategy you have you make a material small and then you try to capture it as a way of doing what the guys apart was figured out is that we can basically in chapter in capsule 8. At the same time as we make the material bottom line is very simple it’s going to be cheaper to do it that way it saves the process it seems everything else I I put the description another process all other proces recaps leaving you with your own bus because talking about as you take that silicone first of all you gotta make it to the size you want to whatever that sizes port for. And then you got it in capsule which is an additional step so every additional steps and cost as contamination risk as you know it’s it’s just it’s just it’s an additional piece of equipment so if you can combine 2 steps into one then you know you’re old you be cheaper so we’re you know we’re going to be the cheapest one we were you know you can already started attacking that actually means we’re gonna be able to produce what the battery manufacture with TV manufacturers are looking for in a wide range of you know product range you know somebody wants just a nanoparticle excell exiles will deliver the one coating will do that so it’s it’s just to demonstrate the flexibility and the value of the relationship we have with our I think not long ago when we announced a deal with Pyro people kept pushing the value we paid for the I. P. well this is what we. It’s this one group of the stuff about it did you want you gave an example of the process in the press release Hey man I got a minute it sounds like it’s a long. An expensive bottle is not the case and if so. How big of an advantage is this going to give you in the marketplace because in your quote you said HPQ continues to expand the attractiveness of our product line for renewable energy storage participants and electric vehicle manufacturers to keep looking for cost effective ways tip increases silicon in their batteries so you know are you really it was already you’re already pioneering the space because you’re going now and now it seems like your potential pioneering the space because you’re going nano and coding at the same time so is that how how big of an advantage are you gonna be it’s gonna be massive up as demonstrators like everything else but it’s just your forward thinking how we are when we when we say we’re provider of innovative so so the conclusion that’s what we do that’s where that’s what our focus and that’s what we’re working in silicone for batteries as needed mainstreet 8 Tesla’s finally made it mainstream people understand where it’s coming now courses a lot of people to be talking about. there is the the the technical issues with using silicon and bats all right. And we’ll end with Tesla’s is demonstrating that badly needs one of the ways including gear so right now this 5 percent used in the in balance you can’t really use more because of those issues arise so as we as we present these type of products they can probably be stored to be incorporated now if the battery doesn’t need to next generation batteries are going to require more defense everything else so what was this one saying I’m advancing it so maybe what are in caps the material they’ll be able to increase by one to 3 percent the quantity of silicone in their present bad news as we move to the to the other generation of batteries and produce different products so we can have a wide scope scope of products I’m not offering just one product okay I’m offering each article solution group solution to. The the battery manufacturers TV manufacturers and everything else so being in that position I’ve I’ve had discussion I think we we even signed an NDA with with somebody who was looking into getting our nano materials to basically see how they can actually in their own process because every reason to develop their own rules we’re just looking at developing a different process for us that’s good that that we can do at the same time it’s just to show the forward thinking and and and how we we look at the issue. That’s all now up until now other potential a potential customers are players the space would have had to take your nano silicon or the we all all the all the different potential products which they would love that would’ve been a gift that would love the movies but it’s still had to go out and quote it themselves exactly. It’s just so we we we can give it is is it. The key point is reducing the cost per kilometers annual kilowatt you know the cost of major you bad that’s that’s the that’s about so what we’re offering is that opportunity to do that okay. Some. One of the one of the quote your quote I got to ask you about this because it’s a pretty bold statement in your quote again it’s an excerpt so far one was read the press release of the long quote there couple key excerpt this excerpt is our belief that HPQ nano PUREVAP. The reactor she will open up a unique multi $0 business opportunity for HPQ and power genesis has never been stronger he. How that I mean that’s a bold statement D. A. that should we read that as you guys have very little doubt left whether going to be able to deliver. Into this market come December then 2021 and so on and so forth. We strongly believe that we are uniquely positioned okay to deliver the material and to be the solution provider for EV’s environment we were about to slip we actually strongly believe that we have the. We we’re not using a complicated process fundamentally if you if you listen to what the Mr musk said it is battery days is he wants to use metallurgy grade silicon metal to make the material for batteries now what is implied in that is the truth all the other polls as the one from Salah and everybody else uses hi you purely material or more complex material like selling gas and all those type of problems which are more expensive but which I think can be is gonna be the exactly same thing console because it was somebody was telling selling me a process of talking about a process as we have the same cash cross you know the lowest cash gross yes it’s true but you need All new people by the way Bernard just for a minute just to go off on a tangent you ever everybody else was playing in the battery metal space still has to dig stuff out of the ground. For a lot of money. You don’t maybe just be 30 seconds long. It’s a question of a business plan there is the problem is if you have any money okay you don’t have to design a product to sell your product your your. You’re not looking into resolving solution you’re trying to figure a way to add value to your product okay what age did you does differently is. We understand the product which is silicone numbers and how it’s me okay we also understand the wrong product needs immediate made it is it is it it’s abundance its not really an issue especially our process which increase the availability so we focus much more on delivering tailor made the product that the bad is that the that the end buyers can buy so we’re not. You know it’s like it’s it’s it’s not the start records not double ports underground doesn’t really change anything as long as I can make the product the my buyer wants to go to the wall once I have so I’m really into those niche market and I don’t have to support money. That’s just the start up or everything else because as you eat it and you’ve seen the issues with other companies have you you’re trying to to basically you’re trying to accomplish to complex things at the same time so I decided to eliminate one just focus on one however reduce the risk of that the other call texting which is developing a new commercial process basically going from our end the commercial to commercial scale is that part of myself basically my order surely part of genesis which have a history and a track record of doing this so how did I you mitigate the risks well first of all I live I live in a completely one of the issues. And second of all I partner up with a company that has a track record of doing this so it’s not something I think people have to realize that the the plasmanet reactor we’re developing is an expansion of what pyrogenesis been doing into the depositors that was everybody else’s processes are brand new we gotta try something university testing for 3 years but in this case pyrogenesis this is just an offshoot of something they’ve done they’re already doing at global scale with other powers yeah so so it’s it’s just that we’re working on a specific size range where that technology isn’t the most appropriate but our new technology is going to cover that specific pricing so as nano particles become more and more part of our daily life I’ll be adding it to a low cost capacity of manufacturing and industrial skills goals nanoparticle is going to be you know import. So let me ask you where you’re at right now because the last thing the last 2 things we know is this you’ve got a major auto manufacturer in the press release which I assume is a global automotive actually there are too many regional guys global automatic factor who likes the product so much it appears that they’ve already requested sample and potentially you’re expecting your first ever pre order and also the second thing we know is that you’re aiming for December to have the reactor ready and sending out samples to ever needs them so let us know where are you with both of those right now. Well we’re definitely on target you know December we did we did 3 actors going to start we’re going to you know that in our in the testing and everything else with that reactor to really figure out everything else but we’ll be producing enough material to send it to first of all to do it to me in our pre order which will then become full order and then descended to the tune to the tune 2 other battery manufactures have been asking you know. It’s asking for material so that’s phase one middle of next year we will have we will then probably end up being the major league of national producer because in a lot of system is gonna be producing 3.5 ton per year which is you know pretty much out there in regards to the materials and everything else and and then we’re going to be you know rolling from there as as the man comes in as as interest is gonna show which we are we’re sure it’s going to be it’s it’s it’s gonna be ringing out the door especially with this new press release today well we added an additional capacity so it’s going to be demonstrating that we can do it month and demonstrate how we can go more skill started selling and start you know negotiating long longer term deals with with different people we want to become the innovative solutions to common solution provider to you know every evening factors and battery manufacturers out there. And that’s what Martin does a real barbecue right because you’re able to. Take your product and almost customized for you what manufactures may want as opposed to George’s battery metal company I got to dig it out of the ground in the hope that whatever I’m digging out of the ground can kind of match somebody in this world you it you and pyrogenesis are able to actually. Pretty much I don’t think I don’t tailor make is too strong but you’re able to do what that’s what’s different. That’s a German use weak we can chill tomorrow too on to the to the environment by tailoring is going to be like you know one bad was going to say I want this size distribution of that will decide the situation I want to say one decide distribution. There will be some of them gonna save you one then a warm some of them as the one that about so I think it will end up having this discussion but we will be stuck up with one discussion one person say you know we’re just we’re not going to be selling just one color they will be able to do different then different end products so that this is what gives us more much more flexibility which is why it was going to try people to do what we’re doing it’s it’s really our ability to to to be responsive to the the alkaline which is looking at increasing its usage of silicone on their backs you know it’s like the truth of the matter is all the other pro sister trying to make you know nettle potters are all based on physical grounding of the material or using a very expensive gas so it can make a spherical materials we as we mean we show the picture you’ve been lucky you’ve been very confident the entire time I gotta tie Bernard from the first time we start talking about this for 5 years ago you were extremely cop a confident that you’re going to get here but now that you’re here is there still a party that almost. Doesn’t believe it or is super excited or you still hate George I knew this was gonna happen and I’m happy for our shareholders but I knew this going out or do you ever pinch yourself sometimes and say man this is serendipitous. Well as you said it’s really certain if it is you have to realize that you know we we live with the up and down we always knew from the beginning that we have something unique. You know at first we thought solar would be the way to go on and then as solar roof for different reason I still believe I still believe in that but it’s much more of a further down the line type of outlook so we always believe in the unique capacity of what we had and we just have to figure a way to okay what’s gonna be the big the big need of this product in the market how how we read that. This is where the partnership with pyrogenesis really pays off because you know if we had just appeared apple but probably didn’t have all that expertise into making the the nanoparticles we wouldn’t be in this great position and what was truly serendipitous was our decision about a year year point 5 ago to to to to gradually more focused towards where we are right now because we had a believe at that time that eventually we would be at this point so our timing is really perfect in the sense that we’re going to be coming to the market with a capacity to do something we ate half ways to commercial scale. Often people design process get people excited and then when the pathways to commercialization do you realize you can go you know what part of genesis we have a different approach in the beginning our question mark we start with is there a path was to commercialization that we developed the balance of and that’s a big difference okay all my competitors are there trying to to get into this field are sure trying to figure the way how do we go to commercial fishing you already have a path we know how we’re going to be doing is going to be scalable. But gradually scaling up our processes to ace commercial side we feel comfortable that we can just no copy and paste copy please copy and paste we’re not going to try to go to have an account 0 total one system but we’re gonna have that capacity because. Within the next few years the market’s gonna go from you know having a demand of 5 to phone or maybe 3 times for you per year which is what it is now 100000 turn for your purchase so it’s the question is is there going to be a demand for the freaking stuff is it one of my you know competitor maybe call it actually said that the question isn’t can we make this stuff is given me get them cheap enough and enough of a cheap enough to meet the demand that’s coming and that’s literally the question mark and that’s already part of our thinking our path was moved forward often people in the army says all of this is looks like a great solution when you try to figure out how to help you scaled up the scratching of heads. Yes I haven’t well I will talk about more that more of that another time I’m sure but you know to bring together HPQ with pyrogenesis is just a match made in heaven and and congratulations man I mean I’m happy as a shareholder and everybody at home was a shareholder another great piece of the puzzle added today with this with this one step carbon coating seems like everything you do is one step. And and that’s pretty spectacular Bernard thank you. You’ve been watching or you for listening by podcast Bernard Tourillon chairman CEO of HPQ silicon  trades on the TSX venture exchange under the stock symbol HPQ for those of you who’ve been around the store for years I hope you love this interview I loved it for those of you who are discovering HPQ and that’s new people every day we hope you got some fantastic information to this but if you want to learn more because we know there’s a lot to to to to think about here get to the HPQ profile on AGORACOM we’ve got everything neatly laid out for yeah but the number 1 thing I’d probably recommend right after you did you do that is watch the videos we’ve done with Bernard in the year 2020 if you’re serious about due diligence go back and watch them maybe the most valuable interviews you ever watch for everybody else thanks for joining us have an amazing day.

The Opportunity in Gambling

  • With online betting sites, casino operators can target new markets without having to move to different locations as “gamblers will not need to go to casinos anymore when the casinos can come to them”
  • New markets and online access has caused new subsectors such as esports and virtual sports betting to emerge
