• FuelPositive’s patent-pending first-of-its-kind system features an entirely non-polluting process of ammonia (“NH3”) production, using 30% less energy than traditional methods
• Carbon-free NH3 contains 65% more hydrogen than highly compressed hydrogen and addresses challenges associated with storing and distributing hydrogen
• Through its proprietary system, which stores hydrogen in carbon-free ammonia, the company is making possible the green hydrogen economy, with hydrogen able to be efficiently used for energy storage, long-distance transportation of energy, as fuel for internal combustion engine vehicles, and for other applications

We’ve all heard about the hydrogen economy. So why isn’t it happening? In 2019, the transportation sector generated 29% of the total greenhouse gas emissions in the United States, the highest of the main economic sectors (https://ibn.fm/Jy6VS). According to 2020 statistics from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (“EIA”), gasoline accounted for 56% of the country’s transportation energy use, while diesel was responsible for 24%. In total, petroleum products accounted for a whopping 90% of the energy use (https://ibn.fm/7h2gQ), demonstrating the heavy reliance on these fossil fuels despite the growing availability of electric vehicles and all the talk about the hydrogen economy. The hydrogen economy envisions a future where carbon-free hydrogen is used for energy storage, long-distance transportation of energy, and as fuel for vehicles and heat generation. With the heightened consciousness around emissions spearheaded by governments setting net-zero greenhouse emission targets, carbon-free “green” hydrogen is emerging as a key piece of the zero-emissions puzzle. As a fuel, hydrogen has no rival — it burns cleanly and produces more power per unit of weight than gasoline or diesel or even lithium-ion batteries. But moving to the hydrogen economy is not as simple as it sounds. There are practical problems that have so far prevented its implementation. FuelPositive Corp. (TSX.V: NHHH) (OTCQB: NHHHF), a company committed to clean energy solutions, is making the green hydrogen economy possible through its proprietary carbon-free ammonia (“NH3”) system. While hydrogen is an ideal energy carrier that can help address numerous energy issues, its use faces several hurdles. Firstly, blue and grey hydrogen production (the only kind today) using the traditional methods is energy intensive and almost entirely relies on fossil fuels. According to the International Energy Agency (“IAE”), about 6% of natural gas and 2% of coal produced globally go into hydrogen production. As a result, it is responsible for about 830 million tons of CO2 emissions per year (https://ibn.fm/NurmL). That is not acceptable since the purpose behind the hydrogen economy is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Even when sustainable electricity is used to produce green hydrogen, it is an extremely energy intensive process. Secondly, once produced, hydrogen is extremely volatile. Being lighter than air and even gasoline vapor, hydrogen rapidly rises and disperses upon escaping. This property is compounded by the fact that hydrogen is highly flammable and requires the lowest ignition energy of any fuel (https://ibn.fm/MbHUo), making it a risk for explosions. This, therefore, necessitates an expensive and safe storage in pressurized containers, which unfortunately presents another problem. As a gas, hydrogen must be compressed to extreme pressures to be adequate for transportation use and as a liquid, it boils off at standard temperatures (e.g., a hypothetical car with a full liquid hydrogen tank sitting in your garage on Friday would have an empty tank on Monday due to room-temperature boil-off). What about distribution? Hydrogen is known to embrittle steel pipes, necessitating more expensive, specially engineered pipelines to prevent hydrogen from escaping. Hydrogen is the smallest element on the periodic table. It’s so small it can even work its way in between the crystalline structure of metals, making them brittle and susceptible to cracking and failure. But hydrogen can be transported in chemical carriers, including liquid inorganic carriers such as ammonia. This is where FuelPositive’s carbon-free NH3 comes in. NHHHF’s patent-pending first-of-its-kind system enables the company to produce NH3 without relying on hydrocarbons in a dramatically less expensive process. The system also requires 30% less energy than conventional NH3 production methods. What’s more, carbon-free ammonia, which is made up of about 17.8% hydrogen by weight, also contains a higher volumetric hydrogen density/content than both liquid and compressed hydrogen. FuelPositive puts the figure at 65% more hydrogen than highly compressed hydrogen (https://ibn.fm/Hm4Pc). A 2020 review titled “Ammonia as effective hydrogen storage” observes that the content is 187% higher when liquid ammonia is used (https://ibn.fm/benoS). With storage and distribution infrastructure already in place, NH3 can be transported in tanker trucks, through pipelines and on ships. At the same time, FuelPositive’s in-situ carbon-free NH3 modular production systems can be installed with the end users, reducing the reliance on these unnecessary forms of ammonia distribution. “So, think of ammonia as the perfect carrier of hydrogen, and if the end-user requirement is pure hydrogen, then the safest and most practical way to get that hydrogen where it needs to be is through FuelPositive carbon-free ammonia,” the company concludes.

• PlantX’s operations are firmly anchored on three operational focal points, namely products, distribution and community
• The company is also guided by a growth strategy, under which the e-commerce platform is the main driver of growth
• In a recent press release, PlantX announced the launch of its redesigned Canadian website, powered by Shopify
• According to PlantX Founder Sean Dollinger, the decision to host the e-commerce platform on Shopify is strategic and complements the company’s mission and expansion plans

As a multifaceted marketplace, PlantX Life Inc. (CSE: VEGA) (Frankfurt: WNT1) (OTCQB: PLTXF) aims to redefine the plant-based space by providing consumers with all things plant-based across three main operational focal points — products, distribution and community. Firstly, PlantX offers over 5,000 plant-based products from established and new brands, with more added daily, as well as meal delivery across the United States and Canada. Secondly, it then distributes these products through a powerful, all-encompassing e-commerce ecosystem, along with flagship brick-and-mortar retail stores in high-traffic epicenters around the world. Notably, these stores aim to enhance the company’s e-commerce presence through interactive shopping. Thirdly, PlantX is building a community by leveraging education and collaborations. The company regularly updates its website and YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/c/PlantX/videos) with informative resources on plant-based foods and vegan diets, packaged as blog articles, recipe videos, nutritional advice videos, or its video podcast series, currently in its second season. It even has a fitness vertical that builds bridges between people with fitness knowledge and those who need it. With its operations firmly anchored on these three points, PlantX has set sights on growth. “The growth strategy for PlantX is surprisingly simple. The e-commerce platform is the main driver of growth. By offering the widest possible array of plant-based products, PlantX is positioned to be the online destination for all plant-based needs and desires,” says PlantX CEO Lorne Rapkin. PlantX recently announced the launch of its redesigned Canadian website, powered by Shopify (https://ibn.fm/mvXl0). You can access the website at www.PlantX.ca. “The company’s redesigned Canadian website was developed to better represent the company’s brand strategy, promote community engagement, improve customer satisfaction, and increase business reach,” explains the press release. The website now features a refreshed and modern design, simplified navigation, and improved search tools and functionality to enhance the overall user experience and brand impact. At the same time, it still offers access to PlantX’s informative resources, namely its podcast series and blog articles. Aiming to maximize the impact of the new platform, PlantX has also engaged UI/UX specialists to improve the website’s performance through better navigation speed and optimized conversion rates. The company intends to launch a new United States website on the Shopify platform later this year. Through its e-commerce platform, the company can actualize its plans to expand globally, to Australia, Latin America, Europe, and Asia. By leveraging the Shopify embedded features, the company will be able to easily clone its current Canadian model and launch additional websites in other countries with a click of a button. When launching in a new country, the company will be able to simply duplicate the PlantX theme and website features on Shopify, and then use the cloned platform to add products relevant to the country of interest. The automation of the company’s e-commerce expansion activity will increase its business effectiveness and allow PlantX to focus its efforts on curating the best plant-based products and educational resources for its customers, therefore boosting community engagement and satisfaction. “The decision to transition to Shopify as the main e-commerce platform to host the PlantX online presence is a strategic move that complements the company’s mission and expansion plans,” said PlantX Founder Sean Dollinger. “By leveraging the Shopify embedded features, PlantX will be able to replicate its current Canadian model and launch additional websites in other countries.” PlantX is a one-stop shop for all things plant-based. It offers consumers an efficient e-commerce experience, interactive brick-and-mortar stores, and a home delivery system for products, recipes, meals, and more.

• Avricore seeks to build the world’s largest network of diagnostic centres in pharmacy.
• Through its flagship platform, HealthTab(TM), the company is simplifying patients’ lives through easy access to point-of-care testing
• Through innovation, technology and partnering with key players in the industry, Avricore is allowing easy access to critical health information for patients and doing so in a convenient way for them. This, it believes, is the future of healthcare

Avricore Health (TSX.V: AVCR) (OTCQB: AVCRF) is a pharmacy service innovator committed to acquiring and developing early-stage technologies that seek to grow and push pharmacy forward. Since its inception, this Vancouver-based enterprise has stayed true to its mission to become the world’s largest health data company. This is evidenced by its move to innovate and leverage specific point-of-care technologies within its community of pharmacies. Avricore’s flagship platform, HealthTab(TM), impacts the healthcare sector mainly by simplifying patients’ lives with easy access to point-of-care testing. With HealthTab, Avricore can offer pharmacies complete turnkey and point-of-care rapid testing systems covering both software and hardware (https://ibn.fm/GN0Tk). Consequently, customers can quickly and conveniently check for markets associated with conditions such as heart disease, diabetes or any other conditions, with a simple finger-prick blood test and under the guidance of a pharmacist. “HealthTab is a way for anybody to get access to important health information in a way that’s convenient for them, and at a time that’s convenient for them,” noted Rodger Seccombe, the Chief Technology Officer (“CTO”) at Avricore (https://ibn.fm/fo4Sk). It is one thing to have the technology and expertise to test patients quickly, but it is a whole other thing to get it to the intended patients. This is why Avricore has resorted to partnerships in a decentralization move that facilitates its growth and makes its technology and services accessible to as many people as possible. So far in 2021, Avricore has secured a distribution agreement with Abbott Canada, the first of its type for a health-data company. Avricore also entered into a master agreement with Shoppers Drug Mart in Canada, giving its service access to over 1,300 stores, a move that so far is proving successful. With the point-of-care diagnostics market projected to grow to $50.6 billion by 2025, Avricore is positioning itself to grow with it and arguably become a leader in the industry (https://ibn.fm/ySU2M). Currently, Avricore earns its revenue from data collection, equipment leasing, API integration, the sale of consumables associated with testing, along with screening tests. As time progresses, and with the investments and partnerships it is forging along the way, the company looks forward to forming an in-pharmacy network. This would allow it to secure steady revenues and collect real-world data that would enable researchers to quickly and efficiently examine health data trends, eventually transforming that into another source of income. The COVID-19 pandemic presented a massive growth for Avricore’s market opportunity. For starters, the public learned the positive impacts of early detection and rapid testing. Avricore’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Hector Bremner, acknowledged this opportunity, even citing rapid testing and early detection as “The future of pharmacy (https://ibn.fm/DJtmQ).” With different companies also recognizing this opportunity, Avricore has managed to stay one step ahead by bringing its services closer to the people with its pharmacies. “Yes, you need good instruments, but you need a whole system around that instrument,” noted Seccombe. “That’s where we’ve come in and developed a real out-of-box solution that works for pharmacies (https://ibn.fm/DJtmQ).” All the milestones achieved by Avricore throughout 2021, including the Ellerca Health Partnership, HealthTab rollout and the Shoppers Drug Mart agreement, among others, are representative of an enterprise that is constantly pushing the envelope in the healthcare sector. Avricore is staying true to its mission, and because of this, it is defining the future of healthcare. To learn more about the company, please visit www.AvricoreHealth.com.

• Preliminary testing indicates that water produced using HyGrO’s patent-pending technology could increase shelf life of cut flowers
• The HyFrontier team is partnering with a commercial-scale flower producer to evaluate effects of HyGrO technology on larger list of flower varieties
• Positive study results will assist the company as it rolls out new technology

After reporting the successful results of preliminary testing, Golden Triangle Ventures (OTC: GTVH) is looking forward to pursuing larger-scale studies of its proprietary HyGrO hydrogen water technology. The company will work with commercial-scale flower products to further evaluate the efficacy of GTVH’s new process. “There are no words to properly express my shock and excitement at these results,” said Robert “Bo” DuBose, CEO of HyFrontier Technologies, a wholly owned subsidiary of Golden Triangle Ventures. “The idea came from HyFrontier’s VP of sales and support, Martin Lorenz, who is an experienced master grower and connected within the ornamental flower agricultural sector. I would like to extend a special thanks to the owners of Campbell’s Flowers — Zach and Travis — for obliging Martin by running this test through their facility.” The test was designed to evaluate whether hydrogen-infused water via HyFrontier Technologies HyGrO system would increase the longevity of cut flowers (https://ibn.fm/KaXun). To conduct the study, Halcyon Hemp conducted a simple preliminary study of the effects of HyGrO water on the longevity of cut flowers. Two vases were filled, one with regular tap water and one with HyGrO water. The water was never changed, and pictures were taken to document the results. The preliminary study lasted 21 days, and the flowers used in this study were stock roses, carnations and gladiolas, provided by Campbell’s Flowers, one of the most reputable floral outlets in Colorado. From the results, photos and observations made in this study, the company concluded that water produced using HyGrO’s patent-pending technology could increase the shelf life of cut flowers, reduce the bloom rate and potentially reduce waste in the floral industry. Plans are already underway to confirm the results through a larger study. The HyFrontier team is partnering with a commercial-scale professional flower producer to continue to evaluate the effects of HyGrO technology on a larger list of flower varieties. The company hopes to see the same results, prove a predictable outcome, and further validate the technology, which will assist the company as it rolls out the new technology. “The pictures and comments we received absolutely speak for themselves, and this represents an entirely new avenue for HyGrO,” observed DuBose. “Following this test, Martin further engaged with the largest distributor of cut flowers in Colorado, and we are now testing close to 100 ornamental sets, in which we plan to prove the benefits of HyGrO and obtain a true standardized outcome on each flower variety. “Additionally, moving forward, we will be testing essentially every type of cut plant that is watered in the produce department at grocery stores,” he continued. “Our entire team is elated for the possibility to see other key ways we can help provide higher yields and improve shelf life at the retailer so customers can enjoy fresher and longer-lasting flowers at home.” Golden Triangle Ventures is a multifaceted consulting company with many projects being developed that provide synergistic values in the health, entertainment and technology industries. The company aims to purchase, acquire and/or joint-venture with established entities that management can help assist and develop into unique opportunities. Additionally, GTV provides a professional corporate representation service to different companies in these sectors while consulting on a variety of business-development objectives. The goods and services represented are driven by innovators who have passion and commitment to these marketplaces. The company plans to utilize relationships and create a platform for new and existing businesses to strengthen their products and/or services.

• Organic operating model has resulted in increasing the triple bottom line, positively impacting people, the planet, and profits
• American Cannabis Partners remains debt-free by purchasing all land and equipment in full, only seeking out real estate that is in cannabis-friendly states with high demand, agricultural zoning, and available licensing
• American Cannabis Partners’ new patent pending strains will be sold exclusively through its wholly owned in house brand ZUK at the Company’s retail locations in Michigan and select California suppliers

American Cannabis Partners (“‘ACP”), a multi-state 100% organic cannabis cultivation company, is committed to improving the lives of individuals through cannabis and business. Sustainable operating practices have been put into place that both reduce their environmental footprint and increase social responsibility. The Company’s organic operating model has resulted in increasing the “triple bottom line,” positively impacting “people, the planet, and profits” according to American Cannabis Partners COO Gary Coltek. With a focus on people — American Cannabis Partners is committed to maintaining a personal and positive relationship with Jamaica and its people. The Company is a high-paying grower who believes strongly in remaining aware of the profound needs of the people it works with and not just the business numbers. For American Cannabis Partners, people come before profit. With a focus on the planet — American Cannabis Partners only uses 100% organic materials in the soil and nutrients. A comprehensive approach is used to maximize impact by using environment-friendly products, increasing energy and water conservation efforts, and implementing a comprehensive waste management program. A partnership with Soilscape Solutions made it possible to rejuvenate soil fertility through sustainable soil practices while also helping to mimic the exact soil conditions found in Orange Hill, Jamaica. Still, there is always a need to focus on profit. However, this only comes after the commitment to both the people and the planet. The Company focuses on three complementary business segments to increase profits: real estate, acquisition and development of proprietary assets, and ongoing cultivation operations. To remain debt-free, tangible, and liquid available, all land and equipment is purchased in full. Once purchased, cost-effective measures are taken to increase the market value of the property. Real estate is only sought in cannabis-friendly states with cannabis population demand, agricultural zoning, and available licensing. In August of 2021, the Company trademarked ZUK, its wholly owned in-house brand. American Cannabis Partners’ new patent pending strains will be sold exclusively through ZUK at the Company’s retail locations in Michigan and select California suppliers. These strains produced yields far above industry norms and are highly sought after. They were cultivated in a greenhouse that mimicked the exact soil conditions, growing supplements, water makeup, and environment of Orange Hill in Jamaica. Through ZUK and strategic partnerships that make it possible to fine-tune the plant’s soil and environment, American Cannabis Partners has brought a sustainable Jamaican cannabis experience to the U.S. market.

• Cannabis company founded by veterans vows to meet highest of standards
• Veteran HempCo was founded with mission to provide quality, American-made, wholesale CBD products to health, wellness and beauty businesses
• Company has access to some of the best hemp flower in the country

As the cannabis industry grows and an increasing number of companies rush to enter the space, Hero Technologies (OTC: HENC) and its wholly owned subsidiary Veteran HempCo vow to hold themselves and their products to the highest of standards (https://ibn.fm/oXbDK). The subsidiary offers another unique aspect to cannabis company ownership: the company was founded by veterans. Initially, this group of entrepreneurial veterans found a nook in the American cannabis industry on the security side of things. They started, grew and then sold several cannabis security companies before deciding that they wanted to focus their talents and hard-earned knowledge of cannabis businesses into a far more product-focused role. “We began offering our sales, marketing and business development consulting to burgeoning cannabis industries to enable our clients to expand their platform and sell more product,” the company’s story states (https://ibn.fm/GHtHD). “Eventually, we decided that our passion for improving the standard and accessibility of cannabis products needed a more direct approach. ​And so we founded Veteran Hemp Company.” One of the challenges in the growing space is quality of product. Company leaders noted that CBD products offered today are poorly regulated, creating a situation in which finding high-quality CBD consistently can be a challenge. Until now, say the Veteran HempCo founders. “Veteran HempCo was founded with the mission to provide quality, American-made, wholesale CBD products to health, wellness and beauty businesses across the nation,” company founders note. “With our CBD products all going through proper laboratory testing, you can rest assured that everything we securely deliver to you will be the absolute best you’ll find.” The company regularly submits its hemp and CBD products to independent laboratories to ensure that anything it sells to customers is nothing short of the best. “Having served in the United States military, we’ve been instilled with honor and integrity as a way of life. As small business owners, we carry these values with us into everything we do. We believe in honesty and transparency,” states the company, which provides its lab testing results to anyone who wants to verify the quality of Veteran HempCo products. “Our testing procedures are consistent with industry best practices,” the company continues. “We are here to set the gold standard for American CBD. We are here to serve you, our customer, and work ceaselessly to do so. We’re here to change the status quo of how CBD is produced and sold, and we’re eager for you to be part of it.” Veteran HempCo carries some of the best CBD on the market in a variety of packaging options ideal for hemp flower, or the smokable form of hemp. The company offers the cola, or top of the plant, which contains the highest concentration of cannabinoids along with the best terpene, or flavor. “Veteran HempCo has access to some of the best hemp flower in the country,” states the company. “With custom harvest plans, drying facilities and all the logistics in between, we’re able to handpick top flowers for our retail partners.” Veteran HempCo’s parent company, Hero Technologies, is working toward a vertically integrated business model. The company’s strategic business plan includes cannabis genetic engineering, space for both medical and recreational cannabis cultivation, production licenses, distribution licenses, consumer packaging, and retail and dispensary operations that make the company a multistate operator.

• Nextech has been selected as an early access partner for Google’s 3D AR search program through which its current Threedy.ai customers’ 3D models will soon appear in organic Google search results
• Threedy.ai provides a scalable 3D model creation platform
• Nextech announced the expansion of its partnership with Kohl’s Corporation, one of the largest department store chains in the US and Threedy.ai’s customer
• Nextech has closed the previously announced acquisition of UK-based spatial computing company, ARWAY Ltd, in an all-stock transaction

In 2019, during its annual I/O Conference, Google, a subsidiary of Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL), announced that moving forward, its search engine would start displaying 3D and augmented reality (“AR”) objects as a search engine results page (“SERP”) feature. This would mark a departure from the site’s original, single focus on indexing and subsequently displaying 2D data such as text and images. In an interview with Steve Darling from Proactive (https://ibn.fm/OhJdW), however, Nextech AR Solutions (CSE: NTAR) (OTCQB: NEXCF) CTO of Visual Computing and Artificial Intelligence (“AI”), Nima Sarshar, noted that the roll-out was slow, even though Google had partnered with a few brands like Target Corporation (NYSE: TGT). As a result, Google recently expanded the number of brands by selecting Toronto-based Nextech as an early access partner for its 3D AR search program. With this, Nextech, one of the leaders in the rapidly growing AR industry, will give exclusive early access of the 3D search program to its current Threedy.ai customers (https://ibn.fm/ciJKm). Threedy.ai is a scalable 3D model creation platform that generates 3D models from 2D photos using Nextech’s proprietary AI technology, enabling customers to build their 3D product catalogs and create immersive customer journeys. As a disruptive end-to-end solution, Threedy.ai syndicates and scales thousands of 3D visualizations to Google Search, Google Ad Network, and Web AR for e-commerce. Nextech CEO Evan Gappelberg, who was also featured in the Proactive interview alongside Sarshar, noted that both Nextech and Google are working together on brand new technology – the indexing of 3D models. “So, the challenge for Google is: ‘How do we make it relevant for consumers?’ Meaning having 1, 10, 50, 100 assets is nothing when you are talking about billions of searches,” stated Evan. “The key here is our technology has the ability to create assets at scale, hundreds of thousands and millions. I am not aware of anyone else who can bring that kind of value to Google.” Evan further pointed that Nextech is able to provide value to Google because of its customers, who, by virtue of the Google-Nextech collaboration, similarly benefit because their assets are indexed and shown in search. “Not everyone can say that. … If you have an e-commerce site and you hire ABC AR Company to turn your asset into a 3D asset, it’s not going to be indexed. It won’t be searchable unless Google invites you in. We’ve been invited in,” Evan explained. This early access partnership, announced August 24, is bound to benefit Threedy.ai customers, including Kohl’s, Pier 1, Lighting Plus, and Kmart Australia, whose 3D models will soon appear in organic Google search results. It comes as no surprise, therefore, that a few days later, on August 31, Nextech announced the expansion of its partnership with Kohl’s Corporation, one of the largest department store chains in the United States (https://ibn.fm/oapUn). The expansion, which will see Kohl’s and Nextech significantly scale WebAR for e-commerce, creating thousands of new 3D models that will enhance the AR experience for customers, resulted from the partnership Kohl’s initially had with Threedy.ai, now part of Nextech following an acquisition closed in June. “When 3D e-commerce solutions are done right, the results can be incredibly rewarding. Not only financially, but also the joy of seeing your product used by millions of customers practically overnight. Our ability to use our AI pipeline to create 3D models at scale is a real value proposition for large retailers like Kohl’s,” commented Sarshar. Meanwhile, Nextech has inched closer to becoming a metaverse company by closing the previously announced acquisition of UK-based spatial computing company ARWAY Ltd. (“ARway”) (https://ibn.fm/7YSd1) in an all-stock transaction. As part of the transaction, Nextech issued 609,666 common shares in the capital of the company at an agreed value of CA$2.06 per share. Additionally, Nextech hired ARway’s key founders Baran Korkmaz (https://ibn.fm/ScKtX). For more information, visit the company’s website at www.NextechAR.com.
