Predictmedix $PMED $PMEDF Is What Happens When You Combine Artificial Intelligence With Contactless Screening To Detect Viruses, Impairment And Even Mental Illness.
Predictmedix is an Artificial Intelligence Company that has developed fast, non-invasive, contactless screening devices that detect infectious diseases, impairment and even mental illness at any location where mass amounts of people gather. Specifically, they determine the probability of a person being infected so safety protocols can be initiated.
$PMED screeners are fully automated and intelligent, so they don’t need personnel to operate them.
THE PROBLEM – TEMPERATURE GUNS DON’T HELP DETECT COVID-19
3RD PARTY VALIDATION
More than just lip service, Predictmedix recently partnered with Wellness for Humanity to deploy Safe Entry Stations at the Big Game festivities in Tampa, Florida, ahead of the SuperBowl.
Moreover, they have partnered with some incredible global giants like Tech Mahindra, a multi-billion dollar company with Fortune 500 clients, to be the first to roll out the technology. How big is Tech Mahindra?
Named in the Top 15 Global IT Companies by Forbes
Highest Ranked Non-US company in Forbes Global Digital 100 List (2018)
Named in the Forbes Fab 50 Companies in Asia (2018)
Tech Mahindra will resell $PMED scanners to their entire client base after a successful pilot.
$PMED has even further 3rd party validation and exciting applications for their technology, so make sure to watch this great interview with COO Dr. Rahual Kushwah to learn all about the Company and where it is going.

Our thesis at AGORACOM is that small cap disruptive technology companies are going to create 3X more wealth this decade than the last 3 decades combined, thanks to the convergence of powerful tech such as Artificial Intelligence, IoT sensors and so on.
Why? The costs to develop, deploy and scale new applications powered by these new technologies have come down to a point where small cap companies can compete head to head with just about anybody. In fact, their size makes them more nimble and able to pivot into emerging trends much quicker than most tech giants.
Which companies will actually succeed in delivering is a determination you have to make. But one company to consider is Predictiv AI (PAI:TSXV / INOTF:OTCQB), whose proprietary artificial intelligence and machine learning platform provides predictive and prescriptive solutions in the public safety sector.
In layman’s terms, PAI uses AI and Machine learning to create solutions that can predict danger.
For example, the Company’s Thermal Pass Fever Detection System was recently used at a Carolina Panthers NFL game. Watch this short video to see it in action. Highlights of the system include:
24 medical grade sensors
1,200 readings per second
1 person / second
As you can imagine, Thermal Pass can be used for almost any high-traffic location you can think of. But the big question is …. will anybody actually use it? Because truth be told 99% of us are not in a position to be able to assess how any AI solutions of any company stack up against the competition. The only thing we can rely on is AGORACOM’s favourite metric – 3rd party acceptance. In short, if your product is good, people will want it.
By that measure, PAI is off to a great start with:
Orders for 62 units of ThermalPass since commercial launch in October. Impressive.
Orders include hospitals, long-term care facilities, prisons and public schools. More impressive
6 channel partners. This is really impressive because channel partners don’t waste their valuable time and resources with products they don’t think they can sell
3rd party acceptance at this early stage – CHECK
Watch our interview with Michael Lende in which we do a deep dive into PAI tech, products and future plans.

AGORACOM followers have given us great feedback on our hit series “Beyond The Press Release” (BTPR) in which we speak with small cap CEO’s about important press releases in greater depth and, quite frankly, in layman’s terms for investors to truly understand their significance.
Nowhere is this more important than in the world of disruptive technologies, biotech and pharma. Each of these industries share two distinct traits:
The possibility for explosive growth with disruptive new products
Difficulty in conveying disruptive new products that, by their nature, have never been seen before by investors.
Whereas BTPR tells these stories from the side of small cap public companies, Beyond The Expert (BTE) tells these stories from the perspective of experts on these topics – and we couldn’t think of anyone better to start off this series than Leigh Hughes.
Leigh is a Venture Capitalist who I’ve personally watched conduct incredible due diligence and invest into many small cap companies that have generated incredible returns over 12-18 month periods.
Leigh is so good at what he does that many global private equity funds and institutions take his call and often follow him into investments he chooses to make. Moreover, he serves as an advisor to several small cap companies.
If you ever wanted to truly learn how to become a great small cap investor, it doesn’t get much better than this.
Without further adieu, watch this great interview with Leigh Hughes and make sure to provide us with your feedback via comments on Twitter, YouTube or wherever you may be watching or listening.

Over 10 ounces of silver over 6 meters.
2nd hole of 8000m program
Followed up with SM20-03, designed to be the deepest hole ever drilled on the property.
Fabled Silver Gold Corp. (TSXV: FCO) (FSE: 7NQ) (“Fabled” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the second diamond drill hole from the on-going 8,000 meter drill program on the Santa Maria Property in Parral, Mexico, with assays from two additional holes pending.
Peter J. Hawley, CEO and President, remarks, “As expected, the sulphide contents of the Santa Maria vein and structure has increased and intercepted over 10 ounces of silver over 6 meters. These exceptional high- grade results intercepted at -145 meters vertically below surface will be followed up by hole SM20-03 which was designed to hit the Santa Maria structure at a vertical depth of -350 meters below surface which will be the deepest hole ever drilled on the property.”
Peter Hawley continues, “The data being obtained from this fence of drill holes will not only target adding silver ounces to the overall resource but also allow us to interpret and model the behavior of this robust mineralized system for future drill hole success.”

Drill holes SM20-01, SM20-02 and SM20-03 are drilled on the same section with holes 02 and 03 targeting the sulphide intercept of the Santa Maria vein and structure, which is typically higher in grade due to metal values not being leached out by surface ground waters as commonly seen in oxide zones.

On October 1st, the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) and Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) issued a press release in which they stated:
“As outlined in joint whistleblower guidance published today, the OSC and IIROC have reason to believe that certain market participants may be engaged in abusive short selling practices.”
and then announced this MASSIVE BOUNTY on predatory short sellers:
“Those who provide information to the OSC Whistleblower Program may be eligible for awards of up to $5 million for tips that lead to an OSC enforcement action.”
What effect has this had on the smallcap markets? Let’s look at the TSX Venture Index
On behalf of all small cap issuers, investors and service providers, we’re grateful to the OSC and IIROC for stepping up and putting their foot down.
However, none of this would have happened if it were not for the efforts of “Save Canadian Mining”, the lobbyist/advocacy group founded by Terry Lynch and backed by industry giants such as Eric Sprott, Sean Roosen, Keith Neumeyer and Rob McEwen and 3,000 + small cap investors who wrote the cheques necessary to hire the experts and analysts to help SCM make their case.
As such, if your Canadian small cap stock or stocks have appreciated nicely over the past 2 1/2 months without being hit by predatory short seller attacks, we should all be thanking SCM for their relentless and tireless work.
To this end, we were happy to interview Terry Lynch to find out if this 8 year nightmare is over and what final steps they are hoping to achieve with the Ontario Provincial Government, OSC, IIROC and CSA over the next 90 days to finally put an end to this. Watch this great interview.

Beyond Meat has become an $11 BILLION company by creating products designed to emulate beef. The basis of success has come from delivering the experience meat eaters have come to love (hamburgers, hot dogs, etc.) while also achieving the goal of eating healthier.
TAAT™ Beyond Tobacco™ mimics the experiences of cigarettes without nicotine or tobacco. It is engineered to closely emulate the sensory components of smoking a tobacco cigarette, including tasting and smelling just like tobacco.
E-cigarettes and vaping have failed despite existing for 15 years, driving most smokers back to cigarettes because they only perpetuate the problem of nicotine addiction while delivering a completely different user experience to smokers.
Under the leadership of experienced veterans from the tobacco industry, including and especially Philip Morris International, TAAT™ launched in the United States Just 7 weeks ago and has already received repeat orders from more than 60% of convenience and gas station customers.
How good was this launch?
“Out of all of the tobacco category products I have worked with, TAAT™ is an outlier in terms of the level of demand it has had in its early stages. I have launched dozens of new tobacco brands across Canada as well as in the Caribbean, and while many of the new products were reordered by retailers in their first several weeks on the market, none of them were reordered by anywhere near 60% of stores that initially carried them. …. I have confidence that we could replicate these outcomes both in Ohio and in other markets where we may introduce TAAT™ in the future.” – TAAT Chief Revenue Officer Tim Corkum (former commercialization executive for Philip Morris International)
How big is the market TAAT is going after? Tobacco is used by:
34M adults in America, equating to 215 BILLION cigarettes sold in 2018
1.3 billion people worldwide
… and almost all of them aspire to leave nicotine behind. Beyond Tobacco™ from TAAT is about to give them what they want and, if they succeed, give shareholders “Beyond Belief” returns in the next 2-3 years.
