• Many countries throughout the world are incorporating RNG into their carbon-reduction strategy, including China, India, Europe, Canada, and the United States
• EVGIF is building RNG infrastructure in Canada, starting in British Columbia and moving east with projects in Alberta and Ontario
• RNG is pipeline-quality gas that is equivalent to natural gas, compatible with existing pipeline networks
• Expansion of EVGIF’s RNG network is made possible through long-term offtake agreements from Canada’s highly regulated utility companies

Over 110 countries are increasingly moving towards carbon-neutral or carbon-negative energy sources in an effort to meet a net zero emissions target by 2050 (https://ibn.fm/FYPtM). Renewable natural gas (“RNG”) is being presented as part of a global solution as countries throughout the world set targets to incorporate biofuels into their carbon-reduction strategy, including China (https://ibn.fm/U9uyS), India (https://ibn.fm/HqWQj), Europe (https://ibn.fm/M5yWx), and the United States (https://ibn.fm/i51TF). EverGen Infrastructure (TSX.V: EVGN) (OTCQX: EVGIF), a North American RNG leader, is making headway in Canada with three projects in British Columbia and significant investments eastward in Alberta and Ontario. The Company’s efforts are aligned with the Canadian government’s initiatives to lower emissions, including the Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act that aims to reduce emissions by 40-45% from 2005 levels by 2030 (https://ibn.fm/lMyO1). The RNG infrastructure produces pipeline-quality gas equivalent to natural gas and compatible with the existing pipeline network. Organic waste from farms, landfills, and sewage treatment plants is processed to create a biogas that is refined to biomethane – a fully interchangeable alternative to traditional gas. Besides providing a carbon-negative equivalent to fossil fuels, RNG production additionally creates end-products for other uses, including fertilizer. In addition, RNG production helps reduce methane, hydrogen sulfide, and carbon dioxide gases that otherwise would be released into the atmosphere. EverGen aims to expand RNG production across Canada through a projected infrastructure network comprising 20 facilities within five years. Currently, the Company operates three RNG projects in British Columbia, including Net Zero Waste Abbottsford, Fraser Valley Biogas, and Sea to Sky Soils. Moving east, the Company has a 67% ownership in Alberta-based GrowTEC and a 50% stake in Ontario-based Project Radius. Long-term expansion of EVGIF’s network is made possible through support from Canada’s highly regulated energy sector that provides long-term offtake agreements for energy derived from the Company’s RNG projects. In contrast, the U.S.’s carbon credit-based system generates unpredictable pricing mechanisms that increase risk when building RNG infrastructure over the long term. Based in Vancouver, British Columbia, EverGen’s RNG infrastructure platform is tapping into the power of organic waste to power homes and vehicles across Canada. Starting in British Columbia on the west coast and moving east with projects in Alberta and Ontario, the Company acquires, develops, builds, owns, and operates a portfolio of RNG waste-to-energy and related infrastructure projects with the aim of powering a sustainable future based on renewable energy sources.

During the webinar, Mockus will discuss Coyuchi’s Regulation A+ investment opportunity – which democratizes access to early-stage investment opportunities and allows the company and investors to embark on the next chapter of wsustainable living together. The live webinar will take place on Monday, January 23. (RSVP at: https://ibn.fm/V3AaO).

Manhattan Street Capital is facilitating the company’s Regulation A+ offering (https://ibn.fm/dxcsr). More information is available in its Offering Circular (https://ibn.fm/EfthR).

Eileen Mockus has been the President and CEO of Coyuchi since 2013 when she was elected to the company’s Board of Directors. She has been a veteran of the industry for more than 25 years, with strength in fabric and product development cultivated by brands like PB Teen and Pottery Barn Kids, The North Face, and Patagonia – driven in a sustainability-focused direction by her own commitment to the planet. Mockus also represents the company on the Fiber Council for the Organic Trade Organization and as a member of the Board for Accelerating Circularity, a collaborative industry project formed to establish systems for reducing textile waste.

She is also the board chair of the Chetna Coalition. This ethical textile and fashion value chain community is working to organize and align the demand of buyers and manufacturers to support the growth and development of Chetna’s organic farming community (https://ibn.fm/FBuMW).

The company’s Circular Initiative begins with 100% organic fibers and a traceable supply chain. After customer purchase and use, Coyuchi’s 2nd Home Renewed Take Back(TM) program accepts used linens, which are sent to partners at the Renewal Workshop. These linens are cleaned, checked for flaws, and repaired to be as good as new ones. If the linens are irreparable, they are aggregated for recycling. 2nd Home Renewed(TM) products are available for resale through Coyuchi at a fraction of the cost of new products on the company’s website.

Coyuchi’s product selection consists of consciously designed bedding, bath, apparel, and lifestyle products spanning approximately 1,400 SKUs – each of which fulfills a need in the market for sustainable products. Research has shown a shift in consumer preference toward high-end lifestyle products as a key factor driving the growth of the organic bedding market, which was valued at $836.4 million globally in 2020. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.1%, resulting in a value of $1.1 billion by 2025 (https://ibn.fm/fyMsx).

During this time, Coyuchi has explored organic farming and sustainable textiles using 100% organic cotton, guaranteeing the highest environmental and ethical standards illustrated through several certifications such as The Global Organic Textile Standard (“GOTS”), Fair Trade Certified, and MADE SAFE(R).

Most recently, Coyuchi earned $33.3 million in net sales in 2021, amounting to 26% YoY growth (in an industry only experiencing 5% YoY). The company has also experienced 2x customer growth to 200,000 active customers, averaging a 35% repeat purchase rate.

• MetAlert recently signed a Letter of Intent to acquire Florida-based TrakTec in a cash and stock deal worth $4.5 million
• TrakTec manufactures and sells affordable location awareness technology solutions for consumer, enterprise, and government applications
• The planned acquisitions will bring on board synergistic and complementary technologies that fit in with MetAlert’s subscription model and existing suite of location-sensitive and tracking solutions
• The acquisition is also set to offer both short- and long-term benefits, eventually contributing to the company’s efforts to up-list

MetAlert (OTC: MLRT), a pioneer in location-sensitive wearable technology products and human and health monitoring devices, is looking to achieve “some big things” in 2023. Speaking in an interview with Sequire Spotlight published December 28, CEO Patrick Bertagna outlined the company’s strategic plans for 2023 (https://ibn.fm/S0D3z). MetAlert, he explained, is “looking at making some acquisitions, bringing on some new products, and possibly doing an up-list,” with the acquisitions, in particular, intended to align with the company’s existing subscription model and increase the revenue per user (“RPU”). And as the RPU increases, Bertagna continued, the company’s margins and overall revenues will also increase, which “hopefully will put us in a position to up-list.” In what perfectly captures and exemplifies Bertagna’s statement, MetAlert on January 11 announced it had signed a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) to acquire TrakTec LLC, a Florida-based manufacturer and seller of affordable location awareness technology solutions for consumer, enterprise, and government applications, for a consideration of $4.5 million in cash and stock (https://ibn.fm/YKuHt). As detailed in the terms of the agreement, MetAlert will acquire TrakTec’s commercial ready tracking products (iGPS products and SafetyNet(R) Tracking Systems), backend platform and mobile application, active paying subscriber base, and police department contracts, as well as onboard key hires, namely TrakTec’s Board Director, Chief Technology Officer, Head of Marketing, retired police chief, and support staff. “We’re extremely excited about the opportunity to acquire TrakTec,” said Bertagna of the planned acquisition, which is set to close on or before March 17, 2023, subject to the completion of satisfactory due diligence and audits. “We see a lot of synergy and complementary technology that will not only fit right in with our existing subscription business model but also help expand it. We expect to gain several benefits, including additional revenues, subscribers, GPS devices for kids, and a radio-frequency identification (“RFID”)-based tracking product that is approved for federal grant funding, existing police contracts, and certain key hires.” TrakTec’s location awareness technology solutions, which have commercially launched and successfully attracted a consumer and enterprise subscriber base, are designed to offer a range of enhanced monitoring services. The aforementioned iGPS products, for example, include the Wizard GPS Tracking Watch Phone, designed for children, and the Phoenix watch, a GPS-based smart wearable for seniors. On the other hand, the SafetyNet Bracelet is an RFID-based and Bluetooth-based tracking technology used by police departments across the United States to facilitate the police search and rescue of wandering seniors. According to Bertagna, MetAlert anticipates the acquisition will offer both short- and long-term benefits. “Short-term, this will grow our existing subscriber base, increase revenues, and expand our product offering,” he explained. “Longer term, we will have more capability to develop new products, grow the government and police department sales channels, have a sales and support presence on the East Coast, and accelerate the company’s growth as we work toward a possible 2023 up-list to a national exchange. There are several requirements to an up-list, such as having more independent directors, a stronger balance sheet, shareholder equity, etc., all of which this acquisition will help support.” MetAlert and its subsidiaries design, develop, manufacture, sell, distribute, and license global end-to-end hardware, software, and connectivity solutions, personal location and wandering assistive technologies that support two-way tracking (GPS/BLE wearable products), and health data collection and monitoring solutions. These solutions offer convenience for the caregivers of patients worldwide living with Alzheimer’s, Dementia, or Autism (“ADA”), especially given ADA patients are prone to wandering and, in some cases, getting lost. MetAlert primarily targets the ADA market, which comprises over 34 million people (https://ibn.fm/8Wvpn). For more information, visit the company’s website at www.MetAlert.com.

• Cyber attacks remain a persistent and potentially costly threat to the successful operations of companies and government organizations
• While small to medium-sized businesses (“SMBs”) may be unable to manage the costs of hiring full-time cybersecurity experts, an emerging trend is supplying virtual chief information security officer (“vCISO”) services on a contract basis
• SideChannel Inc. provides vCISO consultancy and proprietary software for microsegmentation needs, drawing on years of experience in the cybersecurity arena
• SideChannel CEO Brian Haugli recently addressed important elements of vCISO client relations on the Cyber for Hire podcast, including expertise, geographical accessibility, and financially sound controls-based strategies

Cybersecurity experts in a wide variety of organizations have already issued lists of the top threats they anticipate for 2023, acknowledging the persistence and state of flux of cyber attacks worldwide. In particular, ransomware attacks lead to companies effectively being held hostage by cyber criminals demanding a reward before they will cease their attacks on the company and allow it to resume full use of its operational platform. The Des Moines Public School district, one of the most recent school districts to be targeted by such an attack, found itself compelled to cancel classes this month while the problem was addressed by IT staff, and announced that the school year in Iowa’s largest district will be extended into June to make up for lost class time (https://ibn.fm/YVExy). The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics expects the demand for cybersecurity workers to remain high with significant earnings through 2031 (https://ibn.fm/Wht8x), despite nearly 175,000 layoffs reported among the larger tech worker sector during the past year (https://ibn.fm/JHgaZ). The outsourcing of cybersecurity needs to virtual chief information security officer (“vCISO”) services is an emerging trend that provides affordable security staffing on a contract basis to those SMB companies that might find their budgets too small to employ an in-house cyber expert while recognizing the importance of having a security strategy in place. Cybersecurity services and technology provider SideChannel (OTCQB: SDCH) draws on years of experience in the sector to provide especially effective vCISO solutions to its clients, and CEO Brian Haugli recently discussed the decisions that go into a successful working relationship between vCISOs and clients in an interview with the Cyber for Hire podcast. “Our clients usually come to us — CFOs, CEOs, CTOs — and they basically say, ‘I don’t know what I need to do around cybersecurity, I just know I need to do the right thing. I need a risk management capability. I know I need it, but I don’t know how to get there,’” Haugli told the podcasters (https://ibn.fm/2IPtm). “And it’s almost like they’re asking me, ‘Tell me the right questions I should be asking you, and then I’ll be able to better figure out if you’re the one I want to work with based on how you led me through that journey.’” During the course of the 40-minute podcast, Haugli addressed the importance of ensuring vCISOs are expert enough to understand the cultural needs of the client (can a healthcare tech expert flexibly adapt to the security needs of a manufacturing client, for example), working within a reasonable geographic region (does an East Coast cybersecurity expert really expect to be fully available on a West Coast client’s schedule?) and recognizing how to establish a strategic vision for the client in a budget-conscious manner. Although some companies may want to place an emphasis on tracking their return on investment (“ROI”) from cybersecurity, as Forbes recently opined (https://ibn.fm/nFovi), Haugli rejected the idea of using ROI as a basis for the financial policy underlying cybersecurity strategy. “But, we are very much involved in, and should be involved in, setting the budget, whether it’s working with the CIO or the CTO or whomever it is,” Haugli said. “That should be objectively created based on gaps that you have identified in your current state on your path to your target state.” As an example, Haugli cited a scenario in which a company is trying to meet cybersecurity industry standards established by the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework, in which 108 potential security controls for the client’s operation are identified but only 99 are actually applicable to the client, and the client is already doing 89 of them. “Which means we have 10 to do. This is like simple math,” Haugli said. “I have to meet (with the client) and figure out how to address those 10 gaps. OK. Now I know where my direction should be on what to go purchase, what should I go fund. Based on control objectives. … Having a control-based kind of approach allows you to actually have that conversation with the CFO where they can go, ‘OK the thing you’re going to buy that you need $100,000 (for) is going to do eight of the 10 controls that we have gaps on. I get that, that makes sense.’” For more information, visit the company’s website at www.SideChannel.com.

Organizations that have an existing website can transition their digital assets, including text, images, video, PDFs, slideshows and more, to VRoom environments with a simple copy and paste. This will allow their customers and audiences to experience their brand in a whole new, immersive environment.
Utopia VR’s mobile app enables users to personalize their own 3D environments and then schedule business meetings or social meetups in seconds through a proprietary link management system. The app is available for iPhone and iPad users. The company’s website mirrors the app, which means users can access Utopia VR directly from a PC, laptop, tablet, or VR headset without downloading the app.

Market Outlook

Regarded as the next iteration of the internet, the metaverse is a virtual space where the physical and digital worlds coexist and interact, encompassing virtual reality, augmented reality, extended reality and mixed reality, as well as making use of artificial intelligence and other technologies.

These companies are a vital part of the coalition’s ecosystem, including farms and farmers, companies purchasing cotton, the coalition team, technical service providers and scientists, and textile development partners (https://ibn.fm/TRey0). Over the last two years, Coyuchi has seen its net income soar, including notable highlights, including $33.3 million in net sales during 2021, 26% year-over-year net sales growth (five times above the industry average of 5%), and 200,000 active customers at a 35% repeat purchase rate. These 2021 highlights are foundational in Coyuchi’s 2022 growth and the company’s expected growth – to be further facilitated by the company’s Regulation A+ authorization and expansion into additional retail space to serve its consumers.
