The Opportunity in Gambling
The legal online betting market is worth $150 billion and is growing at a CAGR of 8%+
As COVID-19 imposes harsh lockdown measures and social gathering restrictions, a lot of casinos or gambling operators are turning to online gambling to expand their online business
Traditional brick-and-mortar casinos can only serve to a limited number of gamblers whereas online gambling can be accessed by more people at any time and from anywhere
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
The Solution:
FansUnite is a global online gaming company that has developed a full suite of i-gaming products that are taking advantage of this increase in online betting activity in traditional sports, esports, casino and virtual sports. Through their business to consumer (B2C) and business to business (B2B) platforms, the company has now taken in more than $350 million in betting volume since inception, while attracting 300,000 registered users to their brands and producing a state of the art esports and sports software offering currently being utilized by leading companies around the world.
Over the past 5 years, HPQ has teamed up with 2 world renowned technology partners to manufacture high purity silicon cleaner, cheaper and better than anyone in the world – because you can’t dig it out of the ground like other battery metals such as graphite, cobalt and nickel. Now HPQ is on the verge of sending samples of its industry leading silicon to a global auto manufacturer, NDA signatories and other potential partners as early as December.
However, despite providing shareholders with a great return during this period, HPQ’s silicon strategy was still met by skepticism amongst investors who found it easier to understand traditional battery metal stories.
TESLA CHANGED EVERYTHING OVERNIGHT
This all changed on September 23rd 2020, when this headline emerged from Tesla’s “Battery Day”
“Tesla To Revolutionize Use Of Silicon In Batteries: Slash Costs, Increases Range”
With the specific references to Silicon + Cheaper Cost + Longer Range, you would have thought HPQ wrote this headline themselves given the fact this is EXACTLY what they have been telling the world for the last 5 years. Now, thanks to this headline, HPQ Silicon no longer has to convince everybody that Silicon is the holy grail of batteries …. Elon Musk and Tesla have done it for them in one fell swoop.
BUT ELON MUSK NEEDED EVEN MORE
This quote from a story covering Tesla Battery Day says it all.
“Musk also added that he would tackle one of the key downsides of using silicon inside anodes by coating the silicon with elastic polymer coating and holding the silicon together with elastic binders.”
Was this the back breaking hurdle that would finally put a pin in the rising HPQ Silicon balloon? The final step that couldn’t be crossed by 2 small cap technology companies from Quebec?
Not only could HPQ rise to the challenge of coating its silicon with carbon …. it announced it could do it in one step! HPQ CEO Bernard Tourillon stated:
“The decision to proceed with this additional capability demonstrates HPQ NANO’s leadership in the space and reflects the infancy of Silicon anode technology development. HPQ continues to expand the attractiveness of our product line for renewable energy storage participants and electric vehicle manufacturers who continue to search for cost effective ways of increasing the Silicon contained in their batteries. Our belief that HPQ NANO PUREVAP TM N SiR will open up unique multibillion-dollar business opportunity for HPQ and PyroGenesis has never been stronger.“
If you are serious about battery metals and electric vehicles entering a paradigm shifting parabolic stage in the next 5 years, then you owe it to yourself to watch this interview with CEO Bernard Tourillon.

Announced that the PUREVAP TM Nano Silicon Reactor (“NSiR”) presently being developed with PyroGenesis Canada Inc. (TSX-V: PYR) will be incorporating the following additional capability in its design:
Carbon coating the spherical nano silicon powders and nanowires as they are being created.
The Silicon coating concept was validated on Tesla Battery Day when:
“Musk also added that he would tackle one of the key downsides of using silicon inside anodes by coating the silicon with elastic polymer coating and holding the silicon together with elastic binders.” 1
MONTREAL, Oct. 14, 2020 — Innovative silicon solutions provider HPQ Silicon Resources Inc. (“HPQ” or “the Company”) ( TSX-V: HPQ ; FWB: UGE ; Other OTC : URAGF ) through its wholly – owned subsidiary, HPQ Nano Silicon Powders inc (“HPQ NANO”), is pleased to announce that the PUREVAP TM Nano Silicon Reactor (“NSiR”) presently being developed with PyroGenesis Canada Inc. (TSX-V: PYR) will be incorporating the following additional capability in its design:
Carbon coating the spherical nano silicon powders and nanowires as they are being created.
ONE STEP CARBON COATING NANO SILICON POWDERS AND NANOWIRES POTENTIAL GAME CHANGER ?
The Silicon coating concept was validated on Tesla Battery Day when:
“Musk also added that he would tackle one of the key downsides of using silicon inside anodes by coating the silicon with elastic polymer coating and holding the silicon together with elastic binders.” 1
Presently, advance coating processes, like Atomic Laser Disposition-coating (ALD) require:
An additional dedicated self-contain process for the coating of the material;
Capex for the dedicated process equipment;
Additional material handling (increasing contamination risk and operational costs).
Combining the carbon coating process into the same operation cycle that produces the silicon materials, the low-cost transformation of metallurgically produced Silicon into spherical silicon nano powders or nano wires, could be game changing for the industry.
SILICON POTENTIAL FOR BATTERY ANODE MATERIAL BECOMES MAINSTREAM
Tesla’s latest battery day presentation confirmed that the future of battery anodes will be Silicon. Tesla’s “… plans on removing graphite from the anode … ” 2 , points to the need for Innovative Silicon Solutions which HPQ is focused on, as Silicon only based anodes are not yet technically feasible – for now.
Presently, Silicon is used in a blended form with graphite and typically only represents around 5% by wt , which explains the limited performance improvements achieved to date. The primary hurdle to increasing Silicon anode content in Li-ion batteries is the mitigation of Silicon swelling and cracking during the lithiation phase 3 in order to achieve a cyclage stability comparable to graphite.
Ongoing R&D indicates that the two most promising avenues for resolving these issues are:
Going small, nanosizing the Silicon in order to eliminate its cracking during the lithiation phase;
Encapsulating the Silicon in order to manage its swelling and cracking
This is why HPQ NANO is looking forward to the December 2020 start of our first PUREVAP TM NSiR reactor and moving the Nano Silicon project to the validation phase, to resolve these issues.
“ The decision to proceed with this additional capability demonstrates HPQ NANO’s leadership in the space and reflects the infancy of Silicon anode technology development. HPQ continues to expand the attractiveness of our product line for renewable energy storage participants and electric vehicle manufacturers who continue to search for cost effective ways of increasing the Silicon contained in their batteries. Our belief that HPQ NANO PUREVAP TM N SiR will open up unique multibillion-dollar business opportunity for HPQ and PyroGenesis has never been stronger. Having the vision to add this additional capability to the process is another example of the value of our unique relationship with PyroGenesis , a Company with a long track record of taking high-tech industrial projects from proof of concept to global commercial scalability , ” said Bernard Tourillon, President and CEO HPQ Silicon. “Silicon potential to meet energy storage demand is undeniable and generating massive investments , as well as, serious industry interest . W e are very confident about the prospect of being one of the first compan ies coming to market with a low-cost scalable process that can encapsulate , in Carbon , the spherical Nano Silicon Powders and Nanowires that batter ies and EV manufacture r s are looking for. ”
About Silicon
Silicon (Si), also known as silicon metal, is one of today’s strategic materials needed to fulfil the Renewable Energy Revolution (“RER”) and the decarbonization of the economy presently under way. Silicon does not exist in its pure state; it must be extracted from quartz (SiO 2 ), in what has historically been a capital and energy intensive process.
About HPQ Silicon

— HPQ believes it will become the lowest cost (Capex and Opex) producer of silicon (Si) and high purity silicon metal (3N – 4N Si);
Through its 100% owned subsidiary HPQ NANO Silicon Powders Inc, the PUREVAP TM Nano Silicon Reactor (NSiR ) , a new proprietary process that can use different purities of silicon (Si) as feedstock, to make spherical silicon nanopowders and nanowires;
— HPQ believes it can also become the lowest cost manufacturer of spherical Si nanopowders and silicon-based composites needed by manufacturers of next-generation lithium-ion batteries ;
— During the coming months, spherical Si nanopowders and nanowires silicon-based composite samples requested by industry participants and research institutions’ will be produced using PUREVAP TM SiNR .
HPQ is also working with industry leader Apollon Solar of France to:
Use their patented process and develop a capability to produce commercially porous silicon (Si) wafers and porous silicon (Si) powders;
— The collaboration will allow HPQ to become the lowest cost producer of porous silicon wafers for all-solid -state batteries and porous silicon powders for Li-ion batteries;
— Develop the hydrogen generation potential of Silicon nanopowders for usage with the Gennao TM system;
— Commercialize, exclusively in Canada, and non-exclusive in the U.S.A., the Gennao TM H2 system and the chemical powders required for the hydrolysis production of Hydrogen (“H2”).

Despite the collapse of marijuana and cannabis related stocks in the last 18 months, there is no denying that Cannabis related products are going to go through a paradigm shifting, parabolic growth stage around the world over this decade for the following reasons:
Cannabis legalization is gaining momentum around the world.
Momentum is primarily driven by the realization that cannabis may have a range of medicinal, therapeutic and wellness applications.
It is the most widely cultivated, consumed and trafficked drug worldwide (United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime).
So what is this going to translate into?
The global cannabis market size was valued at $US 10.6 Billion in 2018 and is projected to reach $97.5 Billion by the end of 2026, a CAGR of 32.92%(Fortune Business Insights)
WHY WILL THIS TIME BE DIFFERENT?
Big promises, big IR budgets, big hype …. Big Letdown.
That pretty much sums up the last cycle of Cannabis related companies that focused on speed, stories and stock prices rather than the one simple but important thing they should have been doing – building a real business.
Investors will remember that the same thing happened during the dot-com era. As with the cannabis collapse over the last 18 months, what followed back in 2000 was a long period of mourning in which many investors had sworn off tech stocks, just as they have with cannabis stocks today.
But it wasn’t long until tech investors dusted themselves off and realized tech was here to stay – but this time they were only going to focus on real companies with real businesses. What we got was Amazon, Google, Linkedin, Facebook and then the rest was history.
The same thing is about to happen to the Cannabis sector
Meet the 8 new horsemen of the next leadership group that are firing on all cylinders (in alphabetical order).
Avicanna (AVCN :TSX) (AVCN : OTCQX) ( 0NN: FSE) is a vertically-integrated biopharmaceutical company developing and commercializing various cannabinoid-based products for the global marketplace.
When we say vertically integrated, we mean it. Avicanna has 4 fully operating divisions to address the entire market for Cannabis products as follows:
1. The company has a full line of high end CBD based skin care products serving the consumer retail segment with Canadian distribution through Medical Cannabis by Shoppers, as well as global distribution later this year. These are the only known CBD cosmetics backed by clinical trials.
2. Avicanna’s superior medical cannabis line also features products distributed through Medical Cannabis by Shoppers, the online arm of Canada’s largest drugstore chain. In addition, the company recently received certification and authorization for the sale of pharmaceutical cannabinoid products with medical prescriptions in Colombia.
3. Avicanna also hosts a full pipeline of Pharmaceuticals in various stages of trials to address Dermatology, Psychiatry, Neurology, Pain and Oncology. Three of the company’s products are already as far as phase 2.
For more information about the company, please check out the Avicanna HUB on AGORACOM.
Empower (CBDT: CSE) (EPWCF:OTCQB) (8EC:Frankfurt) is a vertically integrated, multi-state operator of medical clinics with a database of over 165,000 patients, a database that almost every medical cannabis and CBD company would kill for … but then these numbers recently came in for the first two quarters to further cement Empower as a leader:
PatientVisits
Q1 + 377% To 5,717
Q2 + 56% To 6,696
Revenues $USD
Q1 + 416% To $790,000 (NO COVID)
Q2 + 56% To $923.000
TOTAL Q1 AND Q2
REVENUE $1.7M vs $745K = + 130%
PATIENTS 12,400 vs 5,500 = + 125%
NET LOSS $920K vs 1.85M = – 50%
Empower has now delivered growth in 4 successive financial reports (Q4, FY 2019, Q1 and Q2), so it is safe to say that superstar CEO Steve McAuley can officially claim victory on the turnaround he inherited in 2019.
BONUS – The Company’s physician staffed clinics have are also generating significant revenue and growth from the COVID-19 pandemic as follows:
Increased CBD treatments from patients suffering increased anxiety;
Testing for individuals and families
Testing for local businesses and employees
Testing for enterprise level organizations across the country
At the lowest price of $USD 80 per test and operating on just 1,000 tests per day, the clinic would deliver $USD 80,000 in revenue PER DAY
Oh, and did we mention that CEO Steven McAuley is Six Sigma certified under the quality initiative of legendary GE (General Electric) Chairman Jack Welch? We’ve never seen a Six Sigma certified CEO in the Canadian small cap markets. Never. Which explains how McAuley has been able to guide Empower Clinics through the most disruptive retail environment in recent history and turn it into significant growth.

Announced the signing of its first deal with partner bdG Sports to provide venue tracing and enhanced fan engagement solutions for its #VegasBubble, which will feature NCAA Division I men’s and women’s basketball when the new season launches next month
bdG, one of the nation’s leading content providers in college basketball programming, is playing host to multiple men’s and women’s college basketball tournaments as well as non-conference matchups and opportunities for additional regular-season games
Labeled the “#VegasBubble,” bdG has worked closely with MGM Resorts to establish comprehensive health and safety protocols for its participants, officials, and game operations personnel with Loop’s venue tracing platform anchoring the overall plan
Games are to be played at MGM Grand Garden Arena, Mandalay Bay Events Center, and T-Mobile Arena between November 25 and December 22, 2020, in Las Vegas
VANCOUVER, BC, Oct. 8, 2020 – Loop Insights Inc. (TSXV: MTRX) (OTCQB: RACMF) (the “Company” or “Loop”), a provider of contactless solutions and artificial intelligence (“AI”) to drive automated marketing, venue tracing, and contactless solutions to the brick and mortar space, announces the signing of its first deal with partner bdG Sports (“bdG”) to provide venue tracing and enhanced fan engagement solutions for its #VegasBubble, which will feature NCAA Division I men’s and women’s basketball when the new season launches next month.
LOOP ALLOWS #VEGASBUBBLE TO ACHIEVE CONTACTLESS AND CASHLESS GOALS TOWARD ECONOMIC RECOVERY FOR LAS VEGAS
The global pandemic has overturned nearly every team’s schedule for the upcoming season. It has created the need for an easily accessible destination location where teams can play under the same health and safety protocols. In response to the revised NCAA Division I 2020-21 season, bdG, one of the nation’s leading content providers in college basketball programming, is playing host to multiple men’s and women’s college basketball tournaments as well as non-conference matchups and opportunities for additional regular-season games.
Labeled the “#VegasBubble,” bdG has worked closely with MGM Resorts to establish comprehensive health and safety protocols for its participants, officials, and game operations personnel with Loop’s venue tracing platform anchoring the overall plan. Games are to be played at MGM Grand Garden Arena, Mandalay Bay Events Center, and T-Mobile Arena between November 25 and December 22, 2020, in Las Vegas.
“Our No. 1 priority in offering up a safe and secure environment for our teams was to have a robust safety plan,” said Brooks Downing, CEO of Kentucky-based bdG Sports. “And as a complementary asset to our testing that we are planning to implement is Loop Insight’s venue tracing. It’s easy to implement and will help ensure that our teams will be safe and secure whether they are in the resort or the gym.”
The added layer of protection requires no app download and only a tap of the user’s device to check-in for protection and alerts. Loop’s SmarTap devices will be installed to log every individual that enters the convention center’s team areas, practice sites, and the arenas. Each individual will check-in using their Loop provided contact tracing wallet pass. In the case a person tests positive during one of bdG’s COVID-19 tests, Loop’s solution allows event staff to quickly identify individuals in proximity to that person and isolate potentially infected individuals as soon as possible for follow-up testing.
Moreover, Loop’s contactless ticketing solution will add a further layer of protection by removing the manual processes associated with ticketing, while also delivering artificial intelligence marketing solutions. This will provide real-time personalized promotions and targeted engagement that reinvent the live fan experience.
“Interest in Loop’s integrated contactless platform by NCAA Division I conferences, schools, and now events have been significant over the past couple of months as they desperately search for best of breed solutions that will allow them to safely restart operations and generate revenue,” said Rob Anson, CEO of Loop Insights. “Being selected for the Vegas bubble is more validation and another major opportunity for Loop to showcase our contactless capabilities on a large-scale project with a global audience. With this agreement, it is fair to say that Loop continues to be the leader in live venue contactless technology.”
CHANNEL RESELLER PARTNERSHIP WITH BDG SPORTS YIELDS IMMEDIATE BIG RESULTS
On August 13, Loop announced a channel reseller partnership with bdG Sports, a leading representation, event management, and public relations firm operating within the global sports marketing industry. bdG Sports is one of the largest college basketball content providers in the United States, having managed NCAA Division I tournaments across North America, including destination tournaments in Southwest Florida, Las Vegas, Canada, and The Bahamas.
Additionally, bdG manages two professional golf tournaments on the Korn Ferry Tour in the Caribbean and has an extensive background with both the LPGA and PGA TOUR. The firm boasts relationships with brands such as Nike, ESPN, Gatorade, and MGM Resorts International. As a result of COVID-19, these staple events and many other bdG events have been disrupted, with no plans for commencement without a solution for fans, athletes, and staff’s safety.
The partnership’s purpose is for Loop’s contactless tracing & ticketing solution to provide bdG sporting events with an opportunity to commence and provide economic recovery for clients. This first and significant announcement to implement Loop into bdG’s #VegasBubble in just 45 days into the partnership is a powerful testimony to the need for Loop’s contactless solution capabilities.
Brooks Downing states,“many, within our extensive network of business, are desperately searching for innovative solutions that will allow them the opportunity to support a safe environment for fans, staff, and athletes, but also optimize their revenue streams that warrant the restart of operations. Loop effectively solves both of these problems with its leading venue tracing solution, which will provide the confidence needed as teams decide to restart their schedules. And while this tool will allow fans to return to events, Loop’s contactless, artificial intelligence marketing solutions will provide personalized promotions and targeted engagement, leading to higher conversions and transaction revenue at all events. This level of personalized omnichannel marketing is incredibly valuable for our clients’ resumption plans.”
BDG PROVIDES DIRECT ACCESS TO ITS LIVE GLOBAL SPORTING EVENTS AND ITS LARGE NETWORK OF CLIENTS WITHIN NBA, NHL, NCAA, AND PROFESSIONAL GOLF
In addition to implementing Loop’s contact tracing product into its current and future events, bdG Sports also plays host to major global sports events and will be implementing Loop’s solutions. Additionally, bdG will represent Loop as a reseller to its current and future clients and enables direct access to the bdG Sports’ client base, which the Company anticipates will accelerate its growth opportunities in the sports industry.
“This is a major opportunity for Loop as live event operators are looking for two things that we can immediately solve: first, they are desperately looking to safely re-open facilities in efforts to save their respective seasons, and secondly, they are looking for new line revenue opportunities to offset the losses from reduced fan capacity in stadium,” Anson said.
