• The United Nations continues to institute multi-national government policies for transitioning from carbon-based fuels to renewable energy systems in an attempt to address harmful changes to the planet’s climate
• The president of last year’s U.N.-sponsored climate change conference is calling on the most economically powerful nations to help triple the global renewable energy capacity by 2030 as leaders prepare for this year’s COP29 conference
• Distributed energy solutions company Correlate Energy Corp. is focused on helping companies more fully transition to renewable energy through localized clean energy solutions and microgrids, primarily through superior green technologies and the structuring of uniquely affordable financing
• The company has completed a number of notable energy transition projects across the country, and collectively its leadership team has developed, financed and deployed more than $2 billion in clean energy projects

As this year’s United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP29) approaches, the challenges surrounding renewable energy adoption and financing for the necessary changes are being newly highlighted by governmental leaders around the globe as they prepare to discuss potential increases to their nationally determined contributions (“NDCs”).

During a recent Petersberg Climate Dialogue gathering, the president of last year’s COP28 conference emphasized four main priorities for climate finance: bolstering infrastructure, advancing technology, investing in human capital, and focusing on the Global South, according to a SolarQuarter report (https://ibn.fm/EzTna). A $12 trillion investment by the nations is needed to triple global renewable energy capacity by 2030, he said.

Distributed energy solutions company Correlate Energy (OTCQB: CIPI) is a unique source for helping make renewable energy accessible to companies seeking to transition from more carbon-intensive fuels as part of this worldwide effort to forestall the harms of pollution-driven changes to the environment. The company’s focus on solar energy infrastructure, for example, is a result of solar’s ability to “beat the grid for costs,” President and CEO Todd Michaels said during an interview earlier this year (https://ibn.fm/6FUyJ).

Some of Correlate’s more notable solar energy projects throughout the country include an 8.2 MW rooftop solar energy project for Las Vegas’ MGM Mandalay Resort, a 12.9 MW system for Arizona State University responsible for 71 percent of campus solar output, a 6.48 MW project for NFL stadiums in California, New York, Washington and Massachusetts, and a 4.5 MW system for Albertsons-Safeway stores in California.

Correlate’s leadership team has collectively developed, financed, and deployed more than $2 billion in clean energy projects, and through the establishment of decentralized systems they are now building and selling localized clean energy solutions and microgrids for industrial, commercial, and residential customers.

The company is also growing dependable income by retaining ownership of some energy systems and the ongoing revenue benefit they would provide. Through M&A activity, Correlate also expects to strategically develop its portfolio for even greater efficiencies and profitability.

Correlate’s efforts are helping the U.S. achieve key priorities for climate finance identified by the COP28 president in Petersberg. “We are creating a powerful synergy that empowers businesses to navigate the transition to a low-carbon future with confidence,” Michaels stated (https://ibn.fm/8VV42).

• Bebuzee is preparing for the official launch of its Super App, which is poised to be the first Super App in America and Europe
• The official launch follows a beta testing phase that began last July
• The company believes the Super App will revolutionize the digital world by offering an all-in-one, seamless platform designed to integrate a continuously expanding roster of services
• The Super App brings together content streaming, social media, messaging, e-commerce, real estate exploration tools, a digital asset trading platform, productivity tools, and so much more

Last summer, Bebuzee (OTC: BBUZ), a company looking to redefine how people connect, engage, and thrive in the digital era, launched in beta its flagship product, a Super App that offers users a centralized hub for all their communication and entertainment needs. In the press release announcing the beta launch (https://ibn.fm/o5kfc), the company termed the Super App a “symbol of our commitment to innovation and excellence,” further noting that the groundbreaking technologies packaged into its Super App would “revolutionize the industry and set a new standard for digital platforms.”

The launch was an extension of efforts to solve a gap in the market: Bebuzee had observed consumers’ frustrations of constantly needing to switch between applications when hunting for information. To the company, this represented an opportunity to provide various apps and functionalities on an all-in-one platform. And the company is closing in on making this a reality with the beta phase now drawing to an imminent end.

Recently, Bebuzee announced that it is preparing for the official launch of the Super App. The Super App is set to offer an all-in-one, seamless platform that integrates multiple services, thus revolutionizing the digital world. The platform is poised to be the first Super App in America and Europe and represents a new dawn for digital integration, according to the company (https://ibn.fm/DvRAa).

The Bebuzee Super App integrates content streaming, social media, messaging, e-commerce, real estate exploration tools, a digital asset trading platform, productivity tools, and more. What’s more, according to the company, the Super App, is differentiated as the only “social media platform to localize its content for specific countries and also the only streaming service to offer movies, documentaries, series talk shows, and more at no cost to the viewer.” As a result of these unique capabilities and offerings, the company says, the Bebuzee Super App has essentially “no competition.”

To put its differentiated capabilities into perspective, the Super App’s core features include video streaming; messaging; photo sharing; Shortbuz, a tool that enables users to make short-form entertaining videos; Properbuz, a global real estate search tool; TravelBuz, an online travel agency for lodging reservations and other travel products; EventBuz, a ticket exchange and resale service; FlightBuz, a flights-search engine and travel agency; Bebuzee Pay, a mobile payment and digital wallet service; location reviews; Blogbuz, a service that scans the world’s news, features, and information flow and displays it to readers, offering them the best of the internet in one place; and ShoppingBuz, an e-commerce service (https://ibn.fm/iq04r).

By merging these cutting-edge capabilities and features into an all-in-one solution, the Super App provides users with a seamless, simplified, enriched, and immersive digital experience that is further complemented by a user-friendly interface. The company believes that these and other features and capabilities will ultimately make the Super App indispensable to users’ daily lives.

“The Bebuzee Super App is not just an app; it’s a revolution. We’re about to change the game by offering a comprehensive digital ecosystem that caters to every user’s needs, all within a single platform. This is more than an app; it’s a new way of life for social media users globally. We can’t wait for everyone to experience the future of digital engagement,” said Joe Onyero, CEO of Bebuzee, in the press release announcing plans for the official launch.

The official launch of the Super App is set to position Bebuzee at the forefront of a growing super apps market, which is expected to reach $722.4 billion by 2023 from $58.6 billion in 2022, growing at a 28.9% CAGR, according to analysts at Allied Market Research (https://ibn.fm/bU0Oa). And with a 2022 survey showing that Australia, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States are among the leading global markets for super apps (https://ibn.fm/euBuj), Bebuzee has taken a strategic approach with its initial plans to introduce its Super App in Europe and America.

• Lexaria has entered an agreement wherein an existing accredited investor has exercised all their warrants to purchase shares
• The company has received $4.7 million from this undertaking, prior to deducting estimated offering expenses
• Proceeds fully fund Lexaria’s entire planned 2024 GLP-1 R&D program, leaving additional excess capital for general purposes

Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX), a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, just announced its entry into a warrant exercise agreement with an existing accredited investor to exercise in full certain existing warrants initially issued in October 2023 and February 2024. The warrants will be exercised at $0.97 and $2.185 per share, respectively, with the whole undertaking yielding approximately $4.7 million, prior to deducting estimated offering expenses (https://ibn.fm/DJkII).

Proceeds from this offering will fund the 2024 GLP-1 research program and go into Lexaria’s working capital. Chris Bunka, the company’s CEO, noted that the funds will further extend its operational runway deep into 2025, an integral milestone given its project pipeline, specifically its focus on glucagon-like peptide 1 (“GLP-1”) studies for the 2024 calendar year.

“These additional cash proceeds of $4.7 million further extend Lexaria’s operational runway deep into 2025 and allow us to execute our 2024 plans at an aggressive pace,” noted Mr. Bunka.

This announcement closely follows Lexaria’s recent milestone of three additional patents to its portfolio. In April 2024, the company received two newly granted patents in the U.S. and one in Japan. The first two patents fell under the company’s patent family #24: Compositions and Methods for Treating Epilepsy, while the third fell under patent family #18: Compositions and Methods for Enhanced Delivery of Antiviral Agents. While the company maintains its standing on the value of its intellectual property and continues to pursue that, its focus for 2024 has been specifically focused on GLP-1 studies.

“Our R&D plans for 2024 are very tightly focused and will be concentrated mainly on GLP-1 investigations. We are not at this time planning additional 2024 research in antiviral nicotine, or PDE5 sectors. We have solid early-stage data in each of those areas that will allow us to build upon those at the right time,” noted Mr. Bunka (https://ibn.fm/C3Vqx).

The $4.7 million will be integral in realizing this objective for the company, even as it pushes for patent applications. With this, its management maintains that its hard work will prove itself in 2024, ultimately creating additional shareholder value.

• SenesTech, a rodent fertility control product provider, is projecting an increase in demand for its Evolve(TM) Soft Bait
• This follows the rising cases of human leptospirosis in New York, an infection associated with exposure to rat urine
• Evolve offers a humane approach to controlling the rodent population, with the potential for complete elimination in 12 to 18 months
• Evolve contributes a significant chunk of SenesTech’s revenue, and the company projects that this will continue to be the case given recent developments

SenesTech (NASDAQ: SNES), a rodent fertility control product provider, and inventor of the only EPA-registered contraceptive for male and female rats, is expecting an increase in the demand for its product offering in the wake of the rising cases of human leptospirosis, particularly in New York. As an infection associated with exposure to rat urine, the rising cases have highlighted New York’s worsening rat problem and further prompted the need for more sustainable and practical solutions (https://ibn.fm/HSkgl).

Human leptospirosis has been linked to residential or occupational exposure to rat urine in environments such as soil and water, as well as materials contaminated with rat urine, such as trash bags or bins containing food waste. Symptoms of the condition include coughing, diarrhea, vomiting, jaundice, rash, and conjunctival suffusion. If left untreated, it can lead to kidney failure, liver damage, respiratory distress, and even meningitis.

Previously, the city employed various methods of controlling rat populations, including rodenticides, and even a “rat czar” was tasked with dealing with the issue. Given the inefficiency of these approaches, earlier in the year, a new bill was proposed by an Upper West Side City Council Member, seeking to ban the use of rodenticide in the city’s war on rats. The move sought to explore more humane methods with guaranteed results in the long term.

“This is not a problem we can kill our way out of. It’s time to embrace these more common sense and humane methods,” noted Jakob Shaw, a special project manager for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (https://ibn.fm/PmYT4).

In its earlier venture into exploring rodent contraceptives, New York City had used SenesTech’s ContraPest(R) as an alternative to rodenticide. Given its liquid form, it proved challenging to use despite posting a rat reduction of up to 68% in controlled studies. In subsequent long term field studies, ContraPest showed reductions in rats up to 90%. SenesTech, however, now has its new soft bait product, Evolve(TM), launched in January 2024, and proving extremely popular due to its ease of use and effectiveness. Studies have shown that the product could help reduce rat populations by 50% in just six months.

“If you’ve gotten the whole population on birth control, you should see close to a complete elimination of that population in 12 to 18 months,” noted Dan Palasky, SenesTech’s Chief Technical Officer (“CTO”). “You’re not controlling the death rate. You’re controlling the birth rate,” he added (https://ibn.fm/1OjPY).

With the cases of leptospirosis hitting 24 in 2023, higher than in any prior year, it is essential now, more than ever, to address the rat menace in the city. Given this mounting pressure, SenesTech anticipates a growth in demand for its Evolve soft bait. Since its launch, SenesTech has seen an uptick in demand, and Evolve is already contributing a significant portion of the company’s revenue. The company expects this trajectory to continue, even as it works to introduce a soft bait contraceptive product for mice.

• Cannabis retail dispensaries in Arizona have grown to upwards of 168 locations as of January 2024
• Nonetheless, only 1% of Arizona’s commercial properties are eligible for use by the cannabis industry
• Zoned Properties has been a key partner for the industry in helping cannabis companies establish a physical retail presence
• The company has recently announced the approval of a $1 million share buyback plan

The legalized sale of recreational cannabis in Arizona has grown from strength to strength. Possession and cultivation of cannabis across the state became legal on November 30, 2020, with the state-licensed sale of recreational cannabis commencing on January 22, 2021 making Arizona the quickest state in U.S. history to begin retail sales post recreational legalization. Cannabis sales in the state drove over $1.4 billion in revenues in 2023, with the number of dispensaries swelling to 292 as of January 2024 (https://ibn.fm/ky6yg). Nevertheless, further expansion for the industry is easier said than done; at present, only 1 percent of Arizona’s commercial real estate properties are applicable to cannabis operators, imposing a further constraint on the growth and development of the state’s cannabis retail market.

Zoned Properties (OTCQB: ZDPY), a technology-driven property investment company focused on acquiring value-add real estate within the regulated cannabis industry in the United States, has been amongst the early leaders in facilitating the transition of the cannabis industry towards the physical retail space. The company maintains a portfolio of six investment properties located across Arizona, Michigan and Illinois; with each of its leased properties occupied by commercial cannabis-linked businesses, the company currently enjoys a 100% occupancy rate with a weighted average lease term of over 10 years.

Zoned Properties has been amongst the leaders in identifying and procuring registered cannabis facilities, which can subsequently be sub-leased to the cannabis industry. Bryan McLaren, Chairman and CEO of Zoned Properties elaborated on the company’s methodology during a recent interview with the Bell2Bell podcast (https://ibn.fm/CtsVE).

“Our company and our team go into these state marketplaces and we identify, qualify and get these properties approved that can be utilized as regulated cannabis facilities. In the best-case scenario, what we’re doing is securing a piece of retail real estate – an old bank, an old restaurant, an old quick service retail location – getting that property approved to be used as a cannabis site called a retail dispensary and leasing that property out to a third-party tenant with a cannabis license in that location under a long-term lease agreement.”

Zoned Properties’ unique business model has translated into a faster rate of operational growth, with the company recently revealing that it had acquired a further two sites for use as potential dispensary locations. Separately, the company has looked to combine its ambitious focus on growth with a desire to maximise total shareholder returns; Zoned Properties recently announced that its Board of Directors has approved a stock repurchase program, pursuant to which the company was authorized to purchase up to $1 million of its common stock over an unlimited time period (https://ibn.fm/IehV5).

“As our business continues to outperform in a challenging overall operating environment, we are thrilled to announce this share repurchase program. The approval of this program demonstrates the management teams and board’s confidence in our prospects for the future, ongoing operational strength, and sound capital structure,” stated McLaren. “As we scale the investment portfolio, we are keeping conservative in our capital allocation strategy while also acknowledging the significant valuation gap between our public valuation and tangible book value. Due to this, it is crucial for us to be adaptable and make sure we are doing everything possible to increase shareholder value. As always, we remain committed in our strategic focus, and look forward to updating shareholders on our progress,” he continued.

• The new Florida client is one of sixteen new accounts that SOBRsafe secured during the first quarter of 2024
• The global alcohol sensor market was valued at $2.3 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.7%, resulting in a value of $6.3 billion by 2030

SOBRsafe (NASDAQ: SOBR), a provider of next-generation transdermal alcohol detection solutions, recently announced that they have signed a hardware/software agreement with a four-facility behavioral health provider based in Florida. (https://ibn.fm/7cxba).

The customer provides the full continuum of care, from inpatient detox and residential treatment to outpatient services, and has now installed SOBRcheck(TM) in each of its four facilities to enable point-of-care screening. The customer is also evaluating SOBRsafe’s wearable band, SOBRsure(TM), for continuous monitoring in an outpatient application.

The new client is one of sixteen new accounts that SOBRsafe secured during the first quarter of 2024. These new accounts represent a jump in growth for the company, driven by products that offer non-invasive, efficient, hygienic and connected alcohol detection solutions that legacy alcohol detection technologies can’t match.

The global alcohol sensor market was valued at $2.3 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.7%, resulting in a value of $6.3 billion by 2030 (https://ibn.fm/jRJbc). Factors fueling market growth include rising alcohol consumption rates, stricter laws pertaining to alcohol consumption, and more effective technologies that facilitate detection and enforcement.

SOBRsafe currently offers the following products to help with alcohol detection in the behavioral health and justice sectors:

• SOBRsafe(TM): Committed to its mission of preserving lives, enhancing productivity, generating significant economic advantages, and fostering positive behavioral change, SOBRsafe has developed the patent-pending SOBRsafe platform. This platform enables non-invasive alcohol detection, real-time reporting, and historical data aggregation on a scalable level. SOBRsafe offers a versatile solution applicable across various sectors including behavioral health, fleet and facility safety, youth drivers, and judicial markets.
• SOBRcheck(TM): SOBRcheck represents the company’s stationary identification and alcohol monitoring solution, delivering swift, targeted alcohol tests at specific points in time. In a hygienic and real-time manner, SOBRcheck authenticates user identity while determining alcohol presence or absence. SOBRcheck delivers immediate results securely to administrators, aiding in the effective management of existing substance abuse policies.
• SOBRsure(TM): SOBRsure introduces the company’s transdermal wearable for alcohol detection. Providing continuous mobile alcohol monitoring, SOBRsure discreetly identifies alcohol presence in the body in real-time. SOBRsure also offers app-based alcohol detection alerts, precise location tracking, and notifications for band removal.

SOBRsafe Director of Commercial Development Eddie Kilroy, said the new Florida customer historically used breathalyzers for select check-ins, but felt these legacy devices were too inefficient and invasive for uniform entry screening. “With SOBRcheck, the provider can verify the absence of alcohol in just 10 seconds or less, in a humane and cost-effective manner. The customer is streamlining operations with automatic results reporting, and electronic records searchable by individual and location,” Kilroy explained. “Switching to SOBRcheck has empowered them to enhance and expand their screening protocols, while likely reducing attempts to subvert the testing process.”

• SUIC CEO Hank Wang recently joined Bell2Bell Podcast host Stuart Smith to discuss the company’s operations and business model, recent milestones, and plans for 2024
• The venture financing and support company, through its I.Hart Group and Boom Fintech subsidiaries, has entered into agreements that set the stage for significant expansion

• The company’s Boom Fintech is working on financing that will support the creation of a revolutionary B2B financing platform and boost supply chain integration for suppliers
• SUIC expects to significantly expand its product markets, making 2024 its best year yet, according to Hank

SUIC Worldwide Holdings (OTC: SUIC), a provider of research and development, venture financing, and investment for public and private companies, was featured in a recent episode of The Bell2Bell Podcast. SUIC CEO Hank Wang joined host Stuart Smith to discuss the company’s operations and business model, recent milestones, and plans for 2024 (https://ibn.fm/dy633).

According to Mr. Hank, SUIC targets opportunities to enhance and streamline existing supply chain and financial processes. The company is the largest shareholder and major operating partner of Beneway Holdings Group, Ltd. USA (“Beneway USA”), which itself is the parent company of I.Hart Group Taiwan, a company that operates 150 global franchised locations under a variety of brands and products, and Boom Fintech, a fintech company that develops and offers an all-in-one platform designed for merchants.

Over the last few months, both I.Hart Group and Boom Fintech have made substantial strides that bring SUIC closer to its expansion goals. In February, I.Hart, whose portfolio of brands and products includes MONGA(C) Taiwan style fried chicken, flower tea drinks, cloud kitchen management, AI smart machines, dumplings, and more, signed a brand cooperation agreement with 7-Eleven Group, Taiwan’s largest convenience store chain with more than 6,800 stores countrywide. The agreement opens up MONGA(C) Fried Chicken’s multi-channel distribution in Taiwan and through 7-Eleven’s international network of stores (https://ibn.fm/1MLUH).

This agreement, SUIC believed, also opens doors for more cooperation with U.S. brands and promotes overall business expansion, a belief that Hank reaffirmed during the recent interview. Hank noted that the cooperation with 7-Eleven represents “an unprecedented prospect to promote our long-term growth,” further noting that the company will leverage its fast-growing competitive affiliations to “offer additional value to customers in different parts of the world.” In addition, and separately, I.Hart is working on integrating more successful brands into its family, targeting 25 different brands to enter the US franchise market in 50 states. And as Hank put it in the interview, the company hopes to replicate I.Hart Group’s unique multi-brand model in the U.S.

On its part, Boom Fintech, which holds nine revolutionary fintech patents, recently reported to work with BD Bankers to access credit of up to $100 million in intellectual property (“IP”) financing intended to support the creation of a revolutionary B2B financing platform for merchants and franchisees and boost supply chain integration for suppliers (https://ibn.fm/JfHzb).

The efforts of both I.Hart Group and Boom Fintech are expected to accelerate Beneway’s plans for an initial public offering (“IPO”). Beneway intends to file the S-1 form with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) later this year as part of its plans to list on a national stock exchange in what is expected to maximize SUIC’s corporate and shareholder value, according to Hank. In addition to the planned IPO, SUIC has additional plans for 2024.

“SUIC expects to significantly expand our product markets, making 2024 its best year yet,” explained Hank. “Looking forward, SUIC will continue to introduce more co-branding products in the U.S. with other prestigious brands to expand our business. [In addition,] we would like to focus on Fintech through industry supply chain integration, global chain and franchise expansion, and other supply chain integrations to enhance and streamline existing processes and establish new and exciting business models that will create revolutionary products and services.”

• More than half of Americans have attended a music festival, indicating lucrative potential for music and art destinations
• GTVH recently closed on the acquisition of ABI Create, a premier event-management and production company
• With the invaluable resources ABI Create brings to the table, the future of Destino Ranch looks more promising than ever

With Coachella still fresh in music lovers’ memories, it’s only natural to look at what other amazing music festivals might be looming in the future. Destino Ranch comes to mind. A new project focused on becoming an international destination where nature and technology combine to create unforgettable experiences such as outstanding music festivals, Destino Ranch is being developed by Golden Triangle Ventures (OTC: GTVH) and its entertainment division, Lavish Entertainment.

Officially called the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, Coachella is held over two weekends at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, in the Coachella Valley in the Colorado Desert. The event traditionally features an array of musical artists from different music genres, including rock, pop, indie, hip hop and more; the festival also includes art installations and sculptures.

This year, Coachella saw record attendance, with organizers reporting an estimated 300,000 people flocking to Indio (https://ibn.fm/Vr1u8). In addition, Coachella’s revenue is impressive, bringing in $115 million collectively from ticket, food and beverage sales and generating around $700 million for the local economy in Indio and surrounding cities each year (https://ibn.fm/Z8IJc).

There’s definitely an eager audience for events such as music and art festivals. In fact, a Marketing Chart study reported that “overall, roughly one-third (34%) of American adults surveyed report having been to more than one music festival, while an additional fifth (20%) say they’ve been once. As such, some 54% of U.S. adults have been to at least one music festival” (https://ibn.fm/mxLB2).

Clearly, Golden Triangle Ventures and Lavish Entertainment are on to something. Most recently the company took a significant step forward in the development of Destino Ranch with the acquisition of ABI Create, a premier event-management and production company (https://ibn.fm/XPvbI). Founded by Marco Antonio Moreno, who was recently named president and COO of Lavish Entertainment, ABI Create has delivered high-quality productions for a range of large-scale installations at major music festivals, sporting events and conventions across the United States, including the NFL Super Bowl, San Diego and New York Comic Con events, EDC and Camp EDC, Bonnaroo Music Festival, the Waste Management Phoenix Open, Arnold Palmer Invitational, Burning Man and more.

The completed acquisition will transition ABI Create into a wholly owned subsidiary of Lavish Entertainment, strengthening Lavish’s position in the entertainment industry through ABI’s well-known reputation and proven track record of executing high-level projects. Headquartered in Las Vegas, ABI’s comprehensive suite of services includes event organization, management, production, logistics, site planning, permitting, construction, contracting, custom design and fabrication.

With the invaluable resources ABI Create brings to the table, the future of Destino Ranch looks more promising than ever. With access to nearly 22,000 visitors traveling through the area every day, the ranch could quickly become a modern art and music festival mecca. In fact, current plans call for the destination location to include an immersive, world-class art installation gallery with rotating exhibits as well as a large-scale music venue with state-of-the-art staging and production, all carefully designed to complement the beautiful natural attributes of the surrounding Mojave Desert.

“This acquisition of ABI Create sets the stage for us to begin showcasing all other synergistic divisions within Lavish that will support all resources, relationships and partnerships within the ABI portfolio of offerings,” said Steffan Dalsgaard, CEO of Golden Triangle Ventures. “Our goal is to develop ABI into a one-stop-shop, event-management business within Lavish that will hold a complete suite of event management and development services. This aims to complement all internal projects and productions and will potentially support outside business opportunities that can provide fundamental synergies to our ultimate plan of building a complete entertainment enterprise.”

Golden Triangle Ventures is a multifaceted consulting company that operates as a parent business pursuing ventures in the health, entertainment and technology sectors, as represented by the three-point golden triangle, along with other sectors that provide synergistic value to these three core divisions.
