Announced a partnership with the Babe Ruth League, one of the largest youth baseball and softball organizations in the United States, serving more than 1,000,000 players in over 11,000 leagues across the country.
Through the partnership, Binovi becomes the Official Provider of Health Programming for Babe Ruth League, with a curriculum designed to improve vision and cognitive performance among its players, organizers, coaches, and umpires.
Toronto – December 9, 2020 –Binovi Technologies Corp. (Binovi) (TSXV:VISN)I(OTC:BNVIF)|(GR:2EYA) is proud to announce a partnership with the Babe Ruth League, one of the largest youth baseball and softball organizations in the United States, serving more than 1,000,000 players in over 11,000 leagues across the country. Through the partnership, Binovi becomes the Official Provider of Health Programming for Babe Ruth League, with a curriculum designed to improve vision and cognitive performance among its players, organizers, coaches, and umpires.
Binovi will provide Babe Ruth League with vision screening, therapeutic and performance products, and services designed to increase awareness of, and treat, vision-related deficiencies. The overall curriculum, which is created and vetted with best-in-class optometry professionals and athletes, will help players, referees, and volunteers improve key vision-related skills and overall performance on and off the field.
Babe Ruth League, Inc. will also work with Binovi to recognize and correct vision-related impairments using Binovi’s products. Further, for those that need increased therapeutic resources, Binovi will provide referrals through its network of trained vision care professionals across the country.
“From a performance standpoint, this partnership is a natural extension of our prior baseball initiatives with such trainers as Justin Stone, the Director of Hitting for the Chicago Cubs and President of Elite Baseball Training, and with the Professional Baseball Athletic Trainers Society,” said Tania Archer, Head of Commercialization and Strategic Partnerships for Binovi. “It is only natural that we deliver our breakthrough performance technologies to children and teenage players who can benefit from our products and services from an earlier age, not only on the field, but in the classroom as well. We commend Babe Ruth League for their forward-thinking vision to incorporate vision screening and our professional network of optometrists, giving the league’s players, coaches, and umpires a complimentary check-up for potential impairments.”
“We’re proud of our relationship with Binovi to increase the health, safety, and performance of our players and volunteers through the Binovi Platform,” said Steven Tellefsen, President and CEO, Babe Ruth League . “Anyone who has ever tried to hit a baseball understands the visual coordination required to do so. In addition to the performance aspects, we’re excited to bring an added layer of health screening to our leagues; Binovi’s resources are an important addition to our vision for Babe Ruth League moving forward, and we look forward to delivering performance gains while promoting greater vision health.”
Binovi products and services are already used by professional sports training centers, professional sports teams, the Professional Baseball Athletic Trainers Society, and as a resource to increase the neuro-visual performance of professional, collegiate, and amateur players alike.
“Much of our work to date has been with the highest-performing athletes in the form of professional baseball, basketball, hockey, and soccer players, among many others,” said Adam Cegielski, CEO of Binovi . “Working with professionals as adults helps them hone their already-impressive skills, but we believe even greater gains can be made by addressing vision issues at an earlier age. With children, there are not only performance implications to our involvement, but also general safety, health, and development implications to healthy vision. I’d be remiss if I didn’t at least make reference to the fact that we are eager to help the umpires in baseball with their vision, so everybody wins in this partnership.”
This partnership represents a continued focus for the company on sports at the amateur/youth and professional levels. Vision health and neurovisual performance issues are often first manifested or discovered through issues on the field, and being able to address these issues at such an early state is a key factor in overall improved performance, both on the field and off.
Babe Ruth League , Inc., a non-profit, educational organization, named after one of the greatest baseball players of all time – George Herman “Babe” Ruth – has come a long way since its modest start over 70 years ago. The Babe Ruth League, Inc. programs above all, are of, by and for youth. Its mission is to make better citizens through proper supervision of regulation competitive baseball and softball in addition to promoting mental and physical development. In adopting rules, in establishing standards and in all planning, the primary consideration is what is best for the participants. For more information, please visit BabeRuthLeague.org .

Understanding the world of Photonics isn’t the easiest thing small cap investors have had to understand. In fact, it may be the very hardest thing they’ve ever had to understand. However, given the fact we are the very reason current photonics devices aren’t living up to snuff trying to keep up with our surfing, streaming, binging and zooming – you start to see why understanding photonics and POET Technologies could open up investors to a whole new world.
We went beyond the press release with POET management to discuss the launch of their LightBar solution for data centers. They did a great job explaining it in terms that are both compelling yet understandable.
Before watching this video, here is some important background information.
Photonics are critical to the next phase of semiconductor development. Semiconductors are an essential component of every electronic device on the planet.
Photonic devices create, detect and manipulate light. Laser generated light is fundamental to sensing, computing, data and telecommunications, which require the fastest transfer of data possible
For example – the biggest trends in computing today:
Cloud Computing
Artificial Intelligence
5G and Edge
HERE IS THE PROBLEM
Making photonics devices that are reliable is expensive in terms of both capital and labor.
Cost declines have not kept up with Moore’s Law, with most photonics devices built one at a time – and multiple different components must be able to interconnect seamlessly without constant testing.
The Result? Integration of components at wafer-scale has not been fully implemented even by the largest companies working for the past 20 years ….. UNTIL NOW
POET has developed a unique, disruptive and differentiating new entry into photonics markets.
The POET Optical Interposer™ Platform – patented photonics integration platform that enables lower cost and higher performance across a wide range of applications
Today’s press release announcing a line of high-performance remote laser light source products for applications in Cloud-Based Data Centers might very well take POET to a whole new level,

Entered a binding share purchase agreement to acquire a private entity VERA TM (Visual Efficiency RAting), its related patents, associated intellectual property, and available inventory, to further expand the company’s vision technology stack as it continues to execute upon its global commercialization strategy.
The transaction will further strengthen the company’s acquisition history, representing continuous investment growth within human performance software and technology.
Toronto, New York –December 7, 2020 –Binovi Technologies Corp., (Binovi) (TSXV:VISN)|(OTC:BNVIF)|(GR:2EYA) , a leader in vision performance technology, announces that, subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange, it has entered a binding share purchase agreement to acquire a private entity VERA TM (Visual Efficiency RAting), its related patents, associated intellectual property, and available inventory, to further expand the company’s vision technology stack as it continues to execute upon its global commercialization strategy. The transaction will further strengthen the company’s acquisition history, representing continuous investment growth within human performance software and technology.
“We’re cornering the market on what’s available and possible with remote vision screening technology, and bringing a proven, scalable solution to our users and future users through Binovi. By baselining and screening potential patients and clients early, quickly, and easily, we’re able to help those people seek the vision care that they may unknowingly need, one of Binovi’s longstanding foundational goals,” stated Adam Cegielski, Binovi Chief Executive Officer.
Developed for eye doctors, educators, and school nurses, VERA offers a much-needed, simple, and validated national standard for school vision screening that goes beyond visual acuity or eyesight; It identifies students with vision difficulties related to classroom and independent learning, such as focusing issues, eye-teaming and eye-tracking problems, and provides a clear point of referral to a vision professional. It is anticipated to be highly impactful in an educational context for differentiating vision issues versus special needs cases, reducing the burden of special education costs.
“It is very gratifying that VERA’s unique vision screening methods will have more widespread benefits as part of Binovi’s technology-driven vision remediation platforms. We can all look forward to many more students with learning-related vision problems being identified and enjoying the rewards of timely and appropriate interventions,” commented Dr. Stephen Galanter, VERA Founder.
VERA is the first program to address the substantial personal, educational, and monetary costs associated with ineffective school vision screening by providing a superior, standardized testing method and automated reporting of test results .
– Up to 25% of students in grades K-12 have visual problems that can impede learning, according to the American Public Health Association – The Vision Council of America estimates that up to 50% of learning-disabled children have undiagnosed vision problems.
A paradigm shift in identifying persons who escape detection on routine vision screenings, VERA utilizes evidence-based, standardized, published, and reliable tests to capture patients with tracking, focusing, and eye teaming problems who may benefit from visual interventions. Its age-related scoring mechanism is driven by an extensive database and results are independent of IQ, socioeconomic status, and curriculum-based assessments, making it a valuable adjunct in educational settings. The current iteration includes a research-backed normative data set for measuring individual performance.
“It is archaic that we continue to rely on visual screening measures such as visual acuity that were developed in the 1800s. VERA incorporates procedures that have much greater bearing on a child’s performance in a technology-driven world, ” commented Dr. Leonard Press, Binovi Chief Scientific Officer.
VERA’s technology will integrate into the company’s Binovi product platform. With the recent announcement and launch of Binovi Connect, the VERA acquisition and integration provides Binovi an additional tool set to expand its offering through the ability to baseline/train/enhance performance of the visual system. With the current post-COVID drive in education and healthcare toward remote learning and telehealth, this will complement a hybrid model that blends elements of at-home and in-person care. This will allow deployment via web browser or iOS/Android and paves the way for remote controlling screening.
“We’re delighted to be able to add a simple, validated screening tool to the Binovi Platform, and use the VERA datasets to validate both the Binovi hardware and software tools as well as a point of comparison for our existing user results. Together, this new screening process will be a great fit for the verticals we’re targeting with Binovi,” commented Sam Mithani PhD, Binovi Chief Technology Officer.
As consideration for the acquisition, Binovi will issue an aggregate of 13.390 million common shares, equivalent to approximately $3.350-million (CAD), at a deemed price of 25 Canadian cents to the shareholders of the private entity VERA, subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
In connection with the completion of the Transaction, the Company will issue 267,800 common shares to an arms-length third-party who assisted with facilitating the Transaction.
About VERA (Visual Efficiency RAting)
VERA™ is a two-part vision screening program designed for school heath, occupational therapy and special education settings. VERA’s school health component identifies more students with common vision difficulties and generates referral letters to eye doctors and parents and demographic reports for school nurses and administration. The program can generate grade-specific lists of students with vision difficulties for teachers to better accommodate these students in class and reinforce the vision referral to parents. Through these reports and letters and by automated follow-up on unfulfilled vision referrals, VERA identifies vision issues and promotes timely vision care.
VERA’s unique “visual efficiency” screening component allows occupational therapists and special educators to rate focusing, eye-teaming and eye tracking abilities which are crucial to attentive reading and learning. Strategies are also provided to support these identified students. VERA is easy to run with no previous clinical training. Tests are straightforward with helpful instruction screens and alerts guard against invalid testing and false positives.
VERA has been patented and program components have been tested on over a million students. https://visualscreening.com/

Announced the approval by the Board of Directors of the Company’s intended plan to begin the process of uplisting to major North American Stock Exchanges.
Uplist Plan outlines Loop’s proposed plan to apply to have its common shares uplisted to the Toronto Stock Exchange, as a technology company, from the TSX Venture Exchange
Secondly, if the Company is successful in uplisting to the TSX, Loop intends to, as soon as practical, begin the process of filing a Form F-1 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission of the United States, which will enable Loop to apply to be listed on the NASDAQ.
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 07, 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 venue tracing to the brick and mortar space, is pleased to announce the approval by the Board of Directors of the Company’s intended plan (“Uplist Plan”) to begin the process of uplisting to major North American Stock Exchanges.
The Uplist Plan outlines Loop’s proposed plan to apply to have its common shares uplisted to the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”), as a technology company, from the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”). Completion of the Uplist Plan is subject to meeting certain conditions, as well as the approval of the TSX. There is no assurance that the TSX will approve the listing application or that Loop will complete the Uplist Plan as proposed.
Secondly, if the Company is successful in uplisting to the TSX, Loop intends to, as soon as practical, begin the process of filing a Form F-1 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission of the United States (the “SEC”), which will enable Loop to apply to be listed on the NASDAQ. In the opinion of the Board, legal counsel, and financial advisors, a NASDAQ listing application would be better served coming from a TSX listed company, as opposed to a direct application from the TSXV. Any such listing application is subject to meeting the stringent conditions of the SEC, as well as, the approval of the NASDAQ. There is no assurance that either the SEC or NASDAQ will approve the Company’s respective applications or that Loop will complete the listing to the NASDAQ as proposed. Loop may elect to not complete the uplist to the TSX or the NASDAQ for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to, unfavourable market conditions, the additional regulatory and financial burden of being listed on the TSX or the NASDAQ, or other conditions affecting the business or operations of Loop.
UPLISTPLAN ENACTED IN ANTICIPATION OF COMPANY GROWTH IN 2021
2020 has seen extraordinary growth for the Company in terms of its technology stack, customer acquisitions, Tier-1 partnerships, technology deployments, and most importantly, the growth of the Company’s sales pipeline. Though Loop cannot provide any assurances as to the success stemming from its current and growing sales pipeline, we are of the strong opinion that we will continue to see increased demand in the marketplace for our AI data applications and product services. The digital transformation driven by COVID-19 has accelerated Loop’s products across all industries and channels. As a result, Loop is well-positioned to be a big winner in the global digital transformation opportunity, as we seek to develop the connective tissue that bridges all data worlds together in real-time.
The Company’s main goal from the outset was to be the first publicly-traded, Artificial Intelligence, data play that delivers the ability to connect and to provide real-time data applications across the big three channels; In-Store, E-Commerce, and M-Commerce. The Company has not only accomplished this goal in 2020, it has begun to commercialize and build a strong pipeline of Tier-1 global brands.
Loop Insights CEO Rob Anson stated, “As a result of our immutable relevancy, high demand for Loop’s products, pipeline growth, and ability to easily scale into a global marketplace that is in full press digital transformation, we expect a continued accelerated pace that now warrants an uplist and dual list strategy that will attract institutional investors commensurate with our anticipated profile in 2021 and far beyond.”

Binovi Connect provides the opportunity for the Company to compete and offer care in any market in the world, hyper-scaling its growth through the optimization of its provider network (over 800 registered providers), and facilitating care to individuals from the classroom or the comfort of home. Binovi Connect enables users to connect with vision care professionals focused on concussion, reading skills, athletic enhancement. The company has invested over $6M into product development and is well positioned to take its Global Expert Network and make them available to the millions of people that need their help now.
“There is a great demand for healthcare services through digital platforms, amplified by the restrictions brought on by COVID-19. Professionals are looking for evidence-based, outcome-oriented solutions that offer virtual health resources for their patients, while patients are looking for a vision care experience comparable to in-person visits. Binovi Connect will allow us to scale our reach and service offering globally,” stated Adam Cegielski, Binovi CEO.
The global telehealth user community has become increasingly dependent on agile solutions that are intuitive and reliable; ease-of-use and performance are critical qualities of video service adoption. Leading contributors to telehealth SaaS include CloudMD(TSXV:DOC) , IBM Corporation (NYSE:IBM), Cerner Corporation (NASDAQ:CERN),Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC),Cisco Systems (NASDAQ:CSCO) , Medtronic PLC (NYSE:MDT) .

The company is currently targeting the 50m+ students currently enrolled in K-12 Education in North America, of which approximately 20% have undetected binocular vision problems. Binovi Connect will allow users to get the benefit of quick screening, immediate optometric evaluation, and training and therapy. Recent global events relating to COVID-19 have forced healthcare providers to re-imagine the care model with remote care as a viable solution.
“We are very excited to offer this leading solution as a standard feature to all of our relationships,” said Terry Booth, Binovi Executive Chairman. “We strive to connect users with our vast global provider network through this pandemic and beyond.”
Providing the ultimate in flexibility for both providers and users, Binovi Connect allows users to browse through the entire Binovi provider network, selecting providers that meet their medical needs, performance goals, personal preferences, budget and scheduling sessions that work with their schedule.
Binovi Connect will enable school boards —in collaboration with vision specialists— to conduct screening as part of the curriculum, identifying and addressing potential issues before they can manifest as difficulties or impairments. Binovi Connect’s goal is to link knowledgeable vision care providers with patients, broadening the reach for practitioners and improving accessibility for patients. This solution will ultimately expand upon the company’s existing SaaS offering, providing greater flexibility between in-clinic and remote care appointments.

Binovi Technologies (VISN:TSXV) is a Vision Therapy and Training Company that goes well beyond fixing eyes that simply can’t read letters on an eye chart. That’s what your optometrist does when they prescribe glasses.
What Binovi does is far more exciting and groundbreaking. Without getting scientific, Binovi delivers higher performing brains by optimizing the performance of your eyes. The result is a faster brain through stronger eyes, which creates quite the edge for the world’s best athletes and explains why their client list includes:
Dallas Stars (NHL)
Chicago Cubs (MLB)
Sporting KC (MLS)
Tennis Canada
Showcased During NFL Scouting Combine
Eli Wilson Goaltending – The World Leader In Hockey Goaltending Development
BUT EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN, TERRY BOOTH, HAS A DIFFERENT AND BIGGER VISION (PARDON THE PUN) FOR BINOVI – GLOBAL CHILDREN
When Terry’s daughter was 5 years old, she developed eye problems that could only be treated by patching – something he says would be considered “barbaric” today. Terry discovered that 1 in 4 kids (not a typo) have vision problems beyond those treatable by an optometrist. This was a global, epidemic without a solution that often leads to kids losing critical learning time and self-confidence by Grade 3.
Fast Forward 30 years and Terry finally found the solution – Binovi – but not before he and his science team put CEO Adam Cegielski and the Company through the ringer. When the due diligence was complete, Terry Booth was all in with ~ $500,000 of his own money now invested, plus more from his network. Most importantly, he’s bringing his entire science, government and finance network to the table to bring Binvoi to children around the world.
