A Message From GameOn $GET CEO Matt Bailey re: Times Internet & Polygon

Posted by AGORACOM at 11:53 AM on Monday, December 6th, 2021

Shareholders & friends,

Off the back of announcing our deals with Times Internet and Polygon ($MATIC), I wanted to end the week with a personal note. This week was a watershed moment for GameOn. A moment when a small, relatively unknown CA$20 million market cap company became backed by India’s largest media conglomerate and a leading blockchain with a US$22 billion market cap. This is strong validation of the mission, products and team that fuel our business each day. 

While many don’t know who we are yet, that’s now shifting. Just yesterday, we were written up by VentureBeat, a tech news leader that receives 12 million monthly views and is regularly read by Mark Zuckerberg. I was also recently featured in Forbes. Both customers and investors are being awoken by the noise we’re making, and they’re starting to take note.

While the market has been choppy, we’ve quietly had our heads down building and closing deals. 2022 is set up to be the year of scaling customers and revenue. If you’ve followed us since listing, you’ll know we execute on what we say we will. We expect the next 12-24 months to be no different. The first inning is over. Batter up for the second, now with the likes of Times Internet and Polygon on-deck.

Look out for a more detailed corporate update next week. In the meantime, thank you for the ongoing support. Have a great weekend! 

Cheers,
Matt

Psychedelics Can Change Humanity for the Better. It’s Time to Unlock Their Power

In a piece for The Guardian, psychedelic pioneer Rick Doblin explains how psychedelics can change humanity for the better. “We envision a day when psychedelics will be more than a last-ditch treatment: they will be a catalyst for mass mental health.” 

The Promise and Pitfalls of Psychedelics

The work to destigmatize psychedelics has been long and arduous. Just ask Rick Doblin. He’s devoted his life to it. But as more and more research comes out, more and more people are changing their opinion on the once villainized substances. “Public attitudes around psychedelics are shifting: A recent Nanos Research survey, commissioned by the Canadian Psychedelic Association, found that 82 per cent of Canadians are in favour of psilocybin-assisted therapy in end-of-life illness, while 78 per cent of those polled support legalizing it to improve the quality of life for palliative and end-of-life patients.”

VIDEO – ImagineAR Is Launching FameDays.com Enabling Instant Delivery of Celebrity Hologram Greetings To Any Location In The World

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 6:23 PM on Wednesday, December 1st, 2021
Ip large logo new

As the name implies, ImagineAR (IP:CSE / IPNFF:OTCQB) is an Augmented Reality Company … but they’re not just any AR company. Imagine enables businesses to create their own mobile phone AR campaigns with no programming or technology experience.  

Why is that important?  Ask Apple CEO Tim Cook who stated 

“AR Will play an important role in how we use technology in the future – and promises to be as influential in our society as the smartphone”   

For those of you that are just discovering Augmented Reality, “AR” is essentially a technology that lays digital images and graphics over the real world, typically by looking through your cell phone or special glasses.  If you think it sounds like a gimmick, it isn’t.  AR will create an entirely new revenue stream for businesses, organizations and sports teams that will boggle the mind in the next 3 years.

ImagineAR provides small-cap investors with an opportunity to participate in the growth of this mega-market in the making …. and IP delivered record revenues in the first 9 months of the year with a 385% increase over last year to prove it, thanks to deals and announcements as follows:

Tier-1 Clients  

  • Shoppers Drug Mart
  • NFL Alumni, 
  • 2 biggest soccer teams in Spain – Valencia / Real Sociedad
  • Club Atletico Mineiro (Brazil) 
  • Grubhub Sound Bites: Megan Thee Stallion, Noah Cyrus

Hype Sports Global Accelerator Program where it was selected by 18 various sports teams, leagues, and broadcasters including 

  • SPORTS – Vegas Knights, Philadelphia Phillies, 
  • ESPORTS – SK Gaming; FC Koln
  • MEDIA – Sinclair Broadcasting, Rogers Communications, 

All this success was recently recognized when Imagine AR was Selected by the STA Group as one of the 2021 STA Startups Category Stage Winners for Sports Fan Engagement

What did Alen Paul Silverrstieen, CEO and President of Imagine AR have to say;

“To be selected as a 2021 STA Startup Category Stage Winner for Fan Engagement is truly an honor and further positions our company as one of the up-and-coming global sports tech leaders,” said “This STA selection can open up new sales and partnership  opportunities for ImagineAR as well throughout the world. We are excited to compete against other global winners for the overall 2021 Startup of the Year Award in the near future.”

And if that is not enough…

In advance of the holiday season, ImagineAR is launching FameDays.com to deliver celebrity hologram e-greetings to sports and entertainment fans. 

Using the FameDays TM mobile app for both IOS and Android, fans can enjoy birthday, holiday, superfan hologram video messages right in their home and record their own videos and pics with the virtual star as if they are standing right next to them in real life and share in social media. Premiere hologram stars are expected to include NFL & MLB Superstars, Reality TV Stars, Pro Wrestlers and new celebrity holograms to be added regularly. 

Is this worth getting excited about?

Did you know….

VIDEO – HPQ Silicon Receives U.S. Patent for Its PUREVAP™ Quartz Reduction Reactor Technology

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 4:37 PM on Tuesday, November 30th, 2021

HPQ Silicon Resources $HPQ $HPQFF is a Quebec-based company that is developing high value-added silicon products that are sought after by battery and electric vehicle manufacturers – but nobody has yet delivered – until now.   

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:  

The Company recently announced Receipt of U.S. Patent for Its PUREVAP™ Quartz Reduction Reactor Technology

To understand the importance and the implications of this milestone, this excerpt from the press release says it all:

The US patent covers the PUREVAP™ QRR innovative process, which permits the one-step transformation of quartz (SiO 2 ) into high purity silicon metal (from 99.5% to 99.99% Si) at reduced costs, energy input, and carbon footprint. This game-changing advantage means that the PUREVAP™ QRR process not only produces a higher purity silicon material than traditional processes, but it does not require the extremely pure feedstock needed by conventional processes. In fact, the process only requires 4.5 MT of raw material to make 1 MT of Silicon, versus the 6 MT required by conventional processes, a 25% reduction which potentially allows a 20% cash cost advantage versus the lowest cost traditional Silicon producer . Furthermore, as part of our ongoing strategy of protecting and strengthening the PUREVAP™ Intellectual Property Portfolio, a second patent application, focusing on a new and novel process was filed in 2019 and is presently advancing through the process. 

Bernard Tourillon, President and CEO of HPQ commented,

“HPQ has been at the forefront of Low-Cost Green Silicon innovation developments since 2015, and getting this U.S. patent approval, combined with the ongoing commissioning of the GEN3 PUREVAP™ QRR pilot plant , has occurred at an opportune time, as demand continues to rise and bottlenecks we had foreseen are now occurring in the silicon supply chain. With ESG principles playing an active role in materials sourcing, the world is more aware of the difficulty of securing the ESG compliant Silicon needed to meet its renewable energy goals. The reality of chronic underinvestment in new technologies combined with the offshoring of Silicon production capacity, has created a massive opportunity for HPQ and its PUREVAP™ QRR patented process, as we are the only company to bring to market a new process to make Silicon that is perfectly suited to the new demands and realities of the Silicon market

VIDEO – POET Technologies Launches In China To Critical Acclaim, Including Break Through First Customer Commitment

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.
