• BEAT continues impressive march forward in developing a suite of products designed to detect heart attacks anytime, anywhere
• Inventions protected by patent enable proprietary 3D vector ECG technology to be built into a smartwatch
• Projections for global smartwatch and wearables medical-device markets show consistent upward growth

In a world where an estimated 202.6 million people use smartwatches (https://ibn.fm/zb66P), the ability to harness the power of smartwatches to help people live healthier lives can make a profound difference. That’s exactly what HeartBeam (NASDAQ: BEAT), a cardiac technology company with a track record for innovation and cutting-edge technology, hopes to do with its newest patent.

The company announced on November 16, 2022, that it was granted a patent for its 12-lead electrocardiogram (“ECG”) smartwatch-based monitor design to identify heart attacks and complex cardiac arrhythmias (https://ibn.fm/DFeQC).

“The breakthrough inventions protected by this patent enable our proprietary 3D ECG technology to be built into a smartwatch, eliminating the need for a dedicated ECG device while offering a 12-lead ECG capability enabling heart attack and complex arrhythmia detection,” said HeartBeam CEO and founder Branislav Vajdic, PhD. “This patent may prove to be one of the most valuable patents in our rich and growing patent portfolio and, together with our 12-lead ECG patch patent, I believe, will have a disruptive effect on these existing multibillion-dollar fast-growing markets.”

Projections for the global smartwatch market for the next several years show consistent upward growth, boding well for HeartBeam. “Data Bridge Market Research analyses that the smartwatch market was valued at $33,081.86 million in 2022 and is expected to reach $64,480.18 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 8.70% during the forecast period of 2023 to 2030,” reported a recent PR Newswire press release (https://ibn.fm/cWWmX).

In addition, HeartBeam pointed out that the global wearables medical-device market is also expected to see billion-dollar growth, estimated to reach $196 billion by 2030. This space “encompasses a wide variety of capabilities, including diagnostic monitoring such as heart rate and some cardiac arrhythmias, blood pressure, glucose, respiratory, and sleep activity, among others,” the company stated. “Currently available wearables are not capable of providing a 12-lead ECG for heart attack detection, complex arrhythmia monitoring or other cardiac disorders. With cutting-edge, 12-lead ECG based on 3D vector ECG technology built into a smartwatch, HeartBeam’s latest patent further expands on the company’s anytime, anywhere capabilities.”

HeartBeam has developed the first and only 3D-vector ECG platform for heart attack detection anytime, anywhere. By applying a suite of proprietary algorithms to simplify vector electrocardiography, the HeartBeam platform enables patients and their clinicians to determine if symptoms are due to a heart attack, quickly and easily, so care can be expedited, if required.

HeartBeam has two patented products in development: HeartBeam AIMI(TM), software for acute care settings that provides a 3D comparison of baseline and symptomatic 12-lead ECGs to identify a heart attack more accurately, and HeartBeam AIMIGo(TM), the only credit-card-sized, 12-lead output ECG device coupled with a smartphone app and cloud-based diagnostic software system to facilitate remote heart attack detection.

The company noted that, while it is currently focused on the development of these two systems, it is also committed to continue advancing the full potential of cutting-edge, 12-lead 3D vector ECG technology. That commitment is demonstrated by recently issued and allowed patents that appear to have the potential for significant market impacts, including this 12-lead, ECG, smartwatch-based monitor design. HeartBeam AIMI and HeartBeam AIMIGo have not yet been cleared by the US Food and Drug Administration for marketing in the USA or other geographies.

• Ludlow Research ups price target for MetAlert, leading developer of location-sensitive health monitoring devices and wearable technology products, anticipating target between $1 and $1.25 per share
• MetAlert announced the elimination of all its toxic convertible notes from its balance sheet, which now provides increased stability to its public float
• The company also shared improved guidance to its NFC operations while also announcing the launch of new medical devices geared toward the geriatric and autism healthcare markets
• Q4 2022 also saw the influx of new chips, which will significantly increase production of the company’s SmartSole units in early 2023, ramp up production and fulfilling of backorders currently in place, and increase revenues in the coming months
• These moves present a unique opportunity for investors to capitalize on the impending price surges

New York based equity research firm Ludlow Research, has updated its research opinion for MetAlert (OTC: MLRT), a pioneer in location-sensitive health monitoring devices and wearable technology products. MetAlert just marked a successful fourth quarter of the 2022 financial year (“Q4 2022”), with the elimination of all toxic convertible notes (“TCN”) from its balance sheet. In what promises increased opportunities for its investors, MetAlert also shared improved guidance to their Near Field Communication (“NFC”) operations while also announcing the launch of new medical devices geared toward the geriatric and autism healthcare markets (https://ibn.fm/vAwkE). TCN, also referred to as toxic debt, often converts at deep discounts to market price, ultimately contributing to shareholder dilution and price instability for small issuers. As a result, it can be detrimental to a company’s financial health. With MetAlert having eliminated all of its toxic debt, its management is confident that the company is in a position now to provide increased stability for its public float. This brings to a close a successful quarter for MetAlert, which also saw the launch of new medical devices such as RoomMate. In addition, the influx of new chips in this period, its management noted, would significantly increase production of its SmartSole units in early 2023, a move that will be integral in ramping-up production and fulfilling backorders currently in place. This move will also increase the company’s revenues in the coming months (https://ibn.fm/lHBg5). Extinguishing all toxic debt was an ambitious move for MetAlert that has since paid off for shareholders. This, coupled with improved guidance operations and the launch of new medical devices, presents a unique opportunity for investors to capitalize on the impending price surges. In addition, the demand for its line of innovative healthcare products, along with the growing size of the worldwide population that needs its technologies, gives MetAlert a significant competitive edge and a unique value proposition that is attractive to investors. As a result, Ludlow Research has placed the new price target for the company’s shares at between $1 and $1.25 per share. For more information, visit the company’s website at www.MetAlert.com.

• Clean energy solutions innovator Correlate Infrastructure Partners Inc. is a company focused on helping businesses that develop and rent out commercial building properties to adopt smart energy use and reduce harmful climate impacts
• Smart energy programs have gained traction during the past year as the federal government has enacted laws funding climate-friendly initiatives on a massive scale
• Investors in public companies have shown a growing interest in supporting corporations with strong environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) profiles as a measure of their efforts to pursue environmentally sustainable production
• CIPI helps corporate clients analyze their energy use practices, assess areas of possible ESG improvement, and find ways to realize cost advantages from making changes

During the past year, the current administration has passed legislation funding a wide-ranging series of climate-improving environmental measures, and utilities innovators such as distributed energy solutions company Correlate Infrastructure Partners (OTCQB: CIPI) have positioned themselves to take maximum advantage. The transformative effort to overhaul the nation’s economy and address climate change during 2021 and 2022 included the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (“IIJA”), which has been rebranded as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal (https://ibn.fm/mHmzH), and led to passage of the landmark Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) (https://ibn.fm/ngkhh). The U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) recently announced that it has begun taking applications for a grants program that will provide an initial $80 million of the $500 million program to public schools across the country to help them perform energy improvements, focusing particular attention on rural and low-income urban districts. “School facilities are the second-largest sector of public infrastructure spending according to the American Society of Civil Engineers, yet school buildings are consistently reported as aging, unhealthy and inefficient,” the DOE’s news release states (https://ibn.fm/jt3w8). “The Renew America’s Schools program … will help create healthier learning environments, lower utility costs and redirect funds to support students and teachers.” The DOE also announced this month that it intends to invest up to $72 million from the Bipartisan Infrastructure law to expand a training program for workforce development to support energy efficiency and emissions reductions in commercial and institutional buildings (https://ibn.fm/0f6cn). The Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal also will invest more than $7 billion in the supply chain for batteries essential to providing affordable clean energy, $1.5 billion for clean hydrogen manufacturing, and $750 million to support advanced energy technology manufacturing projects in coal communities “The Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal will turbo-charge clean energy deployment by funding several highly effective state and local programs that will spur projects that increase access to energy efficiency to save money for American families, businesses and communities, help achieve our clean energy goals and accelerate job growth,” the DOE stated last month (https://ibn.fm/B2q3R). Correlate Infrastructure Partners has established a platform for helping the commercial real estate industry (companies that develop and rent out commercial building properties) succeed at acquiring solar, cogeneration, energy storage, and electric vehicle infrastructure. Such climate-friendly measures have gained gravitas with corporations as investors have shown increasing interest in supporting businesses with good environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) profiles, pouring $69.2 billion into ESG-weighted funds last year (https://ibn.fm/fk7kn), despite political challenges (https://ibn.fm/CLNow). CIPI’s distributed energy solutions provide clients with current energy use analysis, recommendations for optimization, and advisement on access to financial resources that will ultimately help the clients reduce their costs as they make climate-friendly improvements.

• Brian Haugli, with extensive experience in the field of cybersecurity, having led key programs for the Department of Defense, the Pentagon, and Fortune 500 companies, discusses the growing cybersecurity needs of small business, and the new technologies that now make such security far more accessible and affordable
• SMBs face, on average, 11 cyberthreats a day, with over 70% of SMBs facing cyberattacks, and 60% being put of business within six months after an attack
• SideChannel vCISOs (Virtual Chief Information Security Officers) make the highest quality cybersecurity expertise available for significantly less than the cost of a full-time CISO, representing 400-plus years of experience in cybersecurity and a bespoke cybersecurity program perfectly sized for growing enterprises

The cybersecurity market revenue is projected to reach over $156 billion in 2022, driven by the increased need for solutions that protect companies from threats of malware, ransomware, and vulnerabilities that let malicious characters infiltrate critical systems. This revenue is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.92%, resulting in a value of over $262 billion by 2027 (https://ibn.fm/wE6KB). On the Cloud Security Reinvented with Andy Ellis podcast (https://ibn.fm/KV6vv), Ellis talks with Brian Haugli, managing partner and CEO at SideChannel (OTCQB: SDCH). In the episode titled “How to Let Go of the ‘Gotcha’ Mentality in Security with Brian Haugli,”  Haugli and Ellis discuss the necessity for cybersecurity and how small-to-mid-market companies are in need of solutions to accommodate the increased threats to technological systems. According to Haugli, there are hundreds of thousands of companies, outside the Fortune 2000, that require diligence on what their security program looks like, and the question is always who can lead such an assessment and whether they can afford it. “The market is actually very hot when it comes to this space. We’ve grown tremendously over the last two-plus years, and it’s an area that people are genuinely looking at,” Haugli explains. “It’s not just because of what’s in the news but also because people are realizing, ‘Hey, we should be doing our own diligence and security practices the same way we put wrappers and guidelines and posts around financials and sales and marketing.'” Small and medium-sized businesses (“SMBs”) face, on average, 11 cyberthreats a day. A BlackBerry report shoes that over 70% of SMBs have faced cyberattacks, and 60% are put out of business within six months. In 2020, during the height of the pandemic, there was a 600% increase in cybercrimes, with 667 million new malware detections worldwide. BlackBerry estimates that an additional four million cybersecurity experts are needed globally to help mitigate the growing number of digital attacks (https://ibn.fm/D1SLT). SideChannel’s mission is to simplify cybersecurity for SMBs by matching them with highly experienced information security officers at a cost lower than building an in-house security team or hiring a full-time chief information security officer (“CISO”). The company’s team of virtual CISOs (“vCISOs”) possess a combined 400-plus years of experience in cybersecurity and lends this talent to clients, creating value in the form of a bespoke cybersecurity program perfectly sized for growing enterprises. The experience that Haugli has amassed includes leading programs for the Department of Defense, the Pentagon, and Fortune 500 companies. He is an expert on the National Institute of Standards and Technology guidance, threat intelligence implementations, and strategic organizational initiatives. Haugli is a professor at Boston College, Woods College of Advancing Studies Master’s Program in Cybersecurity and is a contributing author for the Wiley book ‘Cybersecurity Risk Management.’ On the podcast, Haugli also underlined that ease of use is a priority (and future) of technology. “These seem like simple things, but you know how people interact with apps and everything,” he said. “That is how people are operating and interacting with technology. We need to move those types of technologies to look and feel like that because that’s what people are comfortable with, and the more people are comfortable with it, the less they’re questioning the technicalities. So it’s just ease of use.” For more information, visit the company’s website at www.SideChannel.com.
