• DLMI, a multi-strategy operating company, is tapping into expanding digital securities and global blockchain industries by asserting itself as a trusted authority in the tokenization space
• In an interview with Proactive’s Stephen Gunnion, Brian J. Esposito, DLMI’s CEO, noted how tokenization is redefining investing by opening up global markets to real-world assets
• He reiterated his goal to build strong earnings, provide shareholder value with sustainable, healthy growth, and grow the DLMI brand

Diamond Lake Minerals (OTC: DLMI), a multi-strategy operating company specializing in the development and support of digital assets and SEC-registered tokens, is looking to capitalize on the growing digital securities market, with tokenization projected to reach over $16 trillion by 2030 (https://ibn.fm/jTaA8). It also plans to make the most of the growing global blockchain market, expected to hit $38.7 billion by 2025. The company is working to achieve this and more by doubling down on tokenization and asserting itself as a trusted authority in the tokenization space.

In an interview with Proactive’s Stephen Gunnion, Brian J. Esposito, DLMI’s CEO, reiterated how tokenization redefines investing by opening up global markets to real-world assets previously inaccessible to many investors. In addition, he noted the benefits of blockchain technology, comparing it with the challenges of traditional investment mechanisms, specifically in the real estate sectors.

“With technology and blockchain and everybody having a smart device, they have access to possibly buying into real-world assets and things that they never had the opportunity to buy into before,” noted Mr. Esposito (https://ibn.fm/oZfvO).

In the interview, Esposito noted how tokenization could democratize access to investment opportunities, ultimately creating liquidity and potentially enabling wealth generation for an even bigger fraction of the global population. He emphasized the importance of doing all this within the confines of the law, noting how DLMI does not look for grey areas to fulfill its mandate to customers and investors. Instead, Esposito welcomed the scrutiny that comes with regulation and regulatory bodies, noting that they are necessary for ensuring the safety and security of these new technological advances.

Esposito joined DLMI in August 2023, having had an illustrious and successful career thus far. Adria Management, LLC ranked him among the world’s top 10 CEOs for 2020, 2021, and 2022 in The World CEO Rankings Awards. While making his announcement upon joining DLMI, Esposito noted that his goal at the company would be to build strong earnings, provide shareholder value with sustainable healthy growth, and grow the brand into one of the highest-coveted securities in the market (https://ibn.fm/OqFMF).

In his interview with Gunnion, Esposito reiterated these goals, expressing his confidence in DLMI’s offering and its potential to assert the company as a market leader. DLMI has been described as “a company to watch” for good reason. Its value proposition is unique, it offers incredible value, and its market positioning is excellent. As the company continues leveraging tokenization and opening new opportunities for investors globally, DLMI affirms its commitment to shareholders while asserting itself as a frontrunner in its space.

A major step for the company was taken in February 2024, when DLMI announced a strategic investment in Avrio Worldwide to secure Avrio’s registered digital financial market infrastructure for the tokenization of digital assets across the DLMI network of companies. Avrio is essentially the financial services technology engine that will enable the DLMI network across a wide range of industries, unlocking access to liquidity and value for investors through a registered platform.

“AVRIO is the parent of several companies delivering licensed digital financial market infrastructure and services across public, private, and digital markets. Avrio’s ATS technology, Arkonis, is designed to be used by the operators of private markets that facilitate the issuance and secondary trading of securities and includes: a Quotation Bureau, a Transfer Agent, and a Qualified Matching Engine for LP investors. Avrio’s public market technology includes: an API farm for exchange management (‘EM’), order management (‘OM’), portfolio management (‘PM’), and client management (‘CM’) – and routes to global public markets. Avrio’s NFT technology provides exchange access and capabilities to trade digital asset securities and collectibles.” (https://ibn.fm/AYXzA).

• Torr in March 2024 announced soil sample assay results from its maiden field program at the Kolos Project, showing five kilometer-scale mineralized zones each boasting soil sample copper concentrations surpassing 200 ppm up to 1175 ppm, including up to 725 ppb gold; a property-wide ZTEM geophysical survey, utilized by industry for porphyry exploration, and 47 rock grab sample assays remain pending
• In January 2024, the company announced multiple new gold anomalies with assays yielding up to 1.32 grams per ton located in areas of the Filion Gold Project that have never been drill tested
• In November 2023, Torr completed the Kolos Project’s first extensive surface geochemical and geophysical surveys covering areas known for historical copper and gold occurrences
• The company in September 2023 announced its acquisition of the Kolos Copper-Gold Project located in south-central British Columbia

Torr Metals (TSX.V: TMET) operates as a mineral exploration company focusing on the identification, acquisition, and advancement of mineral properties. With full 100% ownership of over 1,000 square kilometers of gold and copper projects strategically positioned in premier low-cost mining jurisdictions, Torr is poised for substantial returns across various promising regions.

The company’s extensive portfolio encompasses multiple district-scale projects, including the Filion Gold Project in northern Ontario, the Kolos Copper-Gold Project in south-central British Columbia, and the Latham Copper-Gold Project in northern British Columbia. These projects are all located in prolific mining regions with paved highway access, robust support infrastructure, and favorable geological conditions offering significant potential for new discoveries.

Headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Torr Metals is ideally situated to leverage its expertise and resources for continued exploration and growth.

Projects

Kolos Copper-Gold Project

Situated within British Columbia’s prime copper-producing belt, the 140-square-kilometer Kolos Copper-Gold Project exhibits Nicola Belt geology similar to notable porphyry mines, including Copper Mountain and Highland Valley, respectively situated 106 kilometers to the south and 30 kilometers to the northwest.

With field operations based in the nearby city of Merritt and year-round access provided via Highway 5, the Kolos Project showcases substantial discovery upside potential with five defined large-scale copper-gold-molybdenum anomalies untested by drilling.

Torr Metals’ primary focus lies in unlocking the potential for major new discoveries at the Kolos Copper-Gold Project, with recent surface geochemical results marking a significant milestone positioning the company as a new key player in the region.

Filion Gold Project

The 261-square-kilometer Filion Project is situated within a largely unexplored greenstone belt where gold was initially discovered in the 1930s. With a comparable geological setting to regional orogenic gold deposits and multiple newly identified and undrilled gold trends in surficial geochemistry, the Filion Project holds significant district-scale exploration promise.

The Filion Project benefits from unparalleled infrastructure access, with direct drive-on access from the Trans-Canada Highway, as well as a regional railway and power grid four kilometers to the south. Additionally, the nearby town of Kapuskasing, with a population of 8,300, provides essential support services.

This strategic positioning ensures the Filion Project’s viability for cost-effective, year-round operations in an area poised for untapped discovery potential.

Latham Copper-Gold Project

Situated in British Columbia’s renowned Golden Triangle, the Latham Project spans a vast 689-square-kilometer district, offering immense potential for multiple major discoveries. Accessible year-round via Highway 37, just 20 kilometers south of the town of Dease Lake, the site is strategically located amidst established mining infrastructure, including the active Red Chris mine to the southeast and upcoming major porphyry projects at Schaft Creek and Galore Creek along-trend to the southwest.

Highlighted by the Gnat Pass copper-gold porphyry deposit dating back to the 1960s, the Latham Project presents a compelling opportunity for significant expansion and potential discovery. A non-compliant indicated resource at the Gnat Pass deposit includes 33 million tonnes at 0.39% copper, open beyond 200 meters vertical depth, alongside six drill-ready kilometer-scale copper-gold exploration targets.

Moreover, the Latham Project’s appeal corresponds to the region being an attractive destination for major asset acquisitions and takeovers. Recent transactions within a 40-kilometer radius include Newmont’s 2021 acquisition of the Saddle North copper-gold porphyry deposit for $311 million and Newcrest’s investment in the Red Chris copper-gold porphyry deposit in 2019 for $804 million, underscoring industry acknowledgment of the region’s potential.

Market Opportunity

The World Gold Council, the industry association for the world’s gold producers, estimated in 2023 that the physical financial gold market, which is made up of bars, coins, gold ETFs and central bank reserves, is worth nearly $5 trillion.

The council reports that gold mine production adds approximately 3,500 tons of the precious metal to the world’s supply annually, equivalent to about 2% growth. This historical scarcity and relatively slow production of new supply, as compared to other commodities, is a primary reason gold has retained its value for millennia, according to the council.

Likewise, a report from Acumen Research and Consulting, a global provider of market intelligence and consulting services, valued the global copper market at $304.1 billion in 2022 and forecast that it will reach a market size of $496.8 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 5.1% over the forecast period.

The report identifies a growing demand for copper in the electronics industry, as well as an expanding copper supply due to increasing production from existing mines and the rising number of mine development projects in developing nations, as driving factors in the rising value of the copper market.

Management Team

Malcolm Dorsey, P.Geo., is President, CEO and Director of Torr Metals. He brings over a decade of expertise as a seasoned exploration geologist and project developer, having been pivotal in driving the success of numerous diverse projects across North, Central, and South America. His comprehensive background spans early-stage exploration through to resource development and project acquisitions. His academic credentials include an M.Sc. in Geology and Geophysics from the University of Calgary, where his research characterized the district-scale structural influences affecting copper and gold mineralizing events in western British Columbia. Prior to his current role, he served as Senior Geologist for Benchmark Metals, where his contributions were instrumental in advancing the company’s gold equivalent resource from approximately 80,000 ounces to a maiden resource estimate of 2.92 million ounces.

John Williamson, P. Geol., is Chairman and Director of Torr Metals. He is a mining executive and investor with more than 30 years of experience as a founder, promoter and leader in the formation, financing and operation of private and public companies with exploration and mining interests worldwide. On more than one occasion his team’s efforts have been recognized for excellence by being named to the TSX Venture 50. He holds a B.Sc. in Geology and is a registered Professional Geologist (P.Geol.) with the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists (“APEGA”) and the Geological Association of Canada.

• A Brookings Institution report indicates significant racial disparities in access to health coverage and in health outcomes
• Astiva Health is focused on reshaping the landscape of personalized and comprehensive healthcare
• The company carefully considers needs of its members, creates plans that feature cultural strategies for diverse ethnic groups

In a world where racial disparities still run rampant in many ways, including health coverage and outcomes, Astiva Health is focused on meeting the healthcare needs of underserved populations. The company recognizes the diverse challenges within key communities and strives to bridge healthcare gaps through proactive and culturally responsive solutions.

“In the United States, there are significant racial disparities in access to health coverage and in health outcomes. People of color are far more likely to be uninsured in America, due in part to several states’ refusal to expand Medicaid,” states a commentary from the Brookings Institution, a nonprofit organization that conducts in-depth, nonpartisan research to improve policy and governance at local, national and global levels. “Policymakers, scientists and physicians should all be paying more attention to these issues, and together we should ask ourselves what more we can do to address them.”

A dynamic and innovative Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug (“MAPD”) health plan, Astiva is doing exactly that. The company is focused on reshaping the landscape of personalized and comprehensive healthcare and is dedicated to reaching a diverse demographic and addressing the healthcare needs of individuals, specifically in Southern California, including Orange, San Diego, Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties.

The company has carefully considered the unique needs and challenges of its members and has created expansion plans that feature successful cultural strategies for diverse ethnic groups. As a result of this commitment, Astiva Health has developed one of the most diverse networks in southern California. The company offers a selection of medical, drugs and supplemental benefits including dental, acupuncture, vision and hearing plans tailored to the specialized needs of its individual members.

Another way that the company shows its awareness of its members is by taking a proactive approach to overcoming language barriers for the communities it serves. This focus on inclusivity, accessibility and customization reflects Astiva Health’s ability to adapt. The company is planning similar approaches to serve other ethnic groups as it looks to future expansion in its focus on broadening the potential impact of its services.

Astiva Health is a fast-growing MAPD health plan committed to redefining the standards of personalized and comprehensive healthcare. With a mission to elevate the well-being of individuals, Astiva Health specializes in innovative health plans tailored to meet the unique requirements of its members. The organization prioritizes a culturally responsive approach to healthcare, offering multilingual solutions for customer service, marketing materials, and educational resources.

Astiva Health’s dedication to serving the underserved population is not only fulfilling a critical societal need but also positioning the company to tap into a market segment with significant growth potential. By addressing the diverse healthcare needs of its members, Astiva Health aims to create lasting relationships and contribute to the overall well-being of the communities it serves.

• SOBRsafe, a provider of next-generation transdermal alcohol detection and monitoring technology, is currently focusing on behavioral health, justice and licensing
• ALYST Health, a company that offers concierge addiction treatment services, recently made an initial purchase of the SOBRsure(TM) alcohol detection wristbands and has begun integrating them for client use
• SOBRsure is a fitness-style passive alcohol monitoring wristband designed for advanced alcohol safety, support and recovery for individuals
• The wristband comes with numerous features, including privacy-focused continuous remote monitoring, alcohol detection, app-based reporting, GPS tracking and removal alerts
• SOBRsafe’s hardware products connect to powerful real-time reporting software through which the devices deliver immediate insights, ensuring alcohol monitoring with dignity

SOBRsafe (NASDAQ: SOBR), a provider of next-generation transdermal (touch-based) alcohol detection technology, recently announced that ALYST Health, a company that offers the first and only fully at-home addiction treatment program accredited by the Joint Commission, has made an initial purchase of the SOBRsure(TM) alcohol detection wristbands for use in its concierge addiction treatment services. According to the announcement, ALYST has already begun integrating the wristbands for client use (https://ibn.fm/iGait).

Launched in October 2023, SOBRsure is a fitness-style passive alcohol monitoring wristband designed for advanced alcohol safety, support and recovery for individuals (https://ibn.fm/anLFq). Like SOBRsafe’s other solution, the SOBRcheck(TM), SOBRsure operates on the principle of transdermal science to detect alcohol consumption. It is based on the proven fact that the body excretes a small but measurable amount – about 2-5% (https://ibn.fm/izN1x) – of alcohol whenever a person consumes alcohol; transdermal excretion, which SOBRsafe’s products target, begins about 20 minutes after drinking.

The amount of alcohol excreted through the skin, SOBRsafe says, creates “a strong correlation between Transdermal Alcohol Content (“TAC”) and Blood Alcohol Concentration (“BAC”)/Breath Alcohol Concentration (“BrAC”).” According to the company, SOBRsure uses an electrochemical sensor to generate readings in alcohol parts per million, “ensuring accuracy and eliminating human error.”

The SOBRsure wristband ships with numerous features, including privacy-focused continuous remote monitoring, alcohol detection, app-based reporting, GPS tracking and removal alerts. These features make the wristband perfect for individuals who have just been discharged from rehab or participants in at-home addiction treatment programs. “If you have a drink, it signals your telehealth professional, and they can try to help you before you get into a crisis,” explained SOBRsafe Chairman and CEO Dave Gandini in an interview with Denver7, an ABC affiliate (https://ibn.fm/eXIb0).

The remote monitoring capabilities of SOBRsure drew ALYST, which is adopting the wristband for its at-home addiction treatment services. “Conventional treatment centers – and conventional monitoring methods – aren’t always a good fit for many people who value privacy, personalized treatment, or their daily routine,” commented ALYST Founder and CEO Richard Blair. “This is why we feel SOBRsure is an ideal addition to our program, which moves the point of care from the treatment center to the comfort and privacy of a client’s home – without sacrificing quality. SOBRsure brings dignity and convenience to remote monitoring, and we believe it will further empower recovery success.”

ALYST is the latest company from the behavioral health space to adopt SOBRsafe’s solutions, further reinforcing SOBR’s commitment to serving the behavioral health and justice markets. Speaking at the Lytham Partners Investor Select Conference, Gandini stated that management of the SOBRsafe, which previously targeted a different market altogether, decided to redirect its focus to the behavioral health space as its primary target market following interactions with hundreds of individuals, companies and prospective clients (https://ibn.fm/KHjbA).

Behavioral health refers to a wide-reaching field that is concerned with mental health, substance use disorders, lifestyle, interpersonal relationships and more. A primary area of focus is behavioral health providers that have existing alcohol screening procedures.

One of the ways these providers have traditionally employed to monitor their patients is with breathalyzers. But breathalyzers are unhygienic, cumbersome to administer and require the presence of an official to administer the tests and record the results. Breathalyzers, Gandini explains, may increase the levels of stress and induce anxiety among the test-takers who have to take the tests in front of one or more administrators and or other patients. Their administration can also breach patients’ privacy and erode their dignity.

SOBRsafe is out to address these issues, positioning its alcohol monitoring or detection devices as more dignified, privacy-focused, hygienic and efficient alternatives to breathalyzers. Approximately 46,000 brick-and-mortar facilities in operation across the United States, each needing a way to monitor their patients. This represents a market SOBRsafe hopes to universally serve, one facility at a time.

• Distributed energy solutions company Correlate Energy Corp. is working with customers in industrial, corporate, and residential circles, to cost-effectively improve their climate friendliness through superior energy optimization and transition
• The U.S Department of Energy has been promoting clean energy carbon reduction through a Carbon Dioxide Removal (“CDR”) Purchase program awarding up to $35 million in CDR purchase credits
• Multi-national technology company Google has pledged to match the CDR program “dollar for dollar” as part of a public-private partnership, demonstrating their impetus for clean energy solutions

When technology behemoth Google, at times referred to as “the most powerful company in the world” (https://ibn.fm/k7x4a), announced March 14 that it would match the Department of Energy’s (“DOE”) Carbon Dioxide Removal Purchase program “dollar for dollar” in a show of mutually reinforcing public-private support (https://ibn.fm/Xv3vP), it underscored the importance many large market movers place on climate change responsiveness.

Google plans to work with its partners to identify and scale technology-based and nature-based carbon dioxide removal (“CDR”) solutions during the coming year (https://ibn.fm/p2AV8) under the DOE’s goals relating to direct air capture (“DAC”), enhanced CO2 mineralization, biomass carbon removal with storage (“BiCRS”), and other planned and managed carbon sinks with secure geological storage or equivalent (https://ibn.fm/vF60q).

Distributed energy solutions company Correlate Energy (OTCQB: CIPI) is a working publicly traded enterprise strategically positioned to capitalize on corporate environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) efforts to improve their carbon footprints through affordable intervention that has the potential to generate profits for its clients.

Correlate Energy’s aim is to make solar power and other green energy solutions accessible to mid-tier companies that are often overlooked by large energy companies and consulting firms in the sustainability market.

The company’s operational model involves identifying localized clean energy solutions and microgrids it can finance, develop, and profitably sell to customers in business and residential circles, while also retaining ownership of some energy systems that Correlate can use to sustain its own cash flow needs and build earnings for its shareholders.

Recently, Correlate Energy announced a partnership with online decarbonization planning tool Carbonsight (by Autocase) to help corporate building portfolio managers organize the data they need to improve their green footprints (https://ibn.fm/Ar94X).

Correlate’s completed projects include the 26,000 individual solar panels atop the MGM Mandalay Resort in Las Vegas, which comprised the largest rooftop solar project (8.2 MW) west of the Mississippi when they were installed nearly a decade ago.

Correlate has also completed a 12.9 MW system for Arizona State University that provides 71 percent of campus solar output to offset 15,600 tons of carbon dioxide each year, 6.48 MW for NFL stadiums in California, New York, Washington and Massachusetts, and a 4.5 MW system for Albertsons-Safeway stores in California.

“Solar’s the most applicable technology. Right now it’s basically beating the grid for cost,” CEO Todd Michaels said during a December Proactive interview (https://ibn.fm/SkdBI). “In behind that comes things like batteries, where if somebody wants to have resiliency, let’s say the grid goes down in California or Texas or the Northeast, which is very prevalent nowadays, things like storage can help them to have 24/7 uninterrupted operations. … (And) nowadays people are electrifying their vehicles. That’s not just consumers cars, but this is also things like short-haul trucking or retail infrastructure of their buildings. … That’s why our contracts are ever-increasing in size as well.”

• Tokenization, the process of developing and issuing a digital asset representing a real-world asset, is gaining recognition, as BlackRock CEO Larry Fink states that it will be the “next generation for markets”
• Brian J. Esposito, the CEO of multi-strategy operating company Diamond Lake Minerals, shares Fink’s vision and regards tokenization as a game-changing concept for investors
• Esposito believes tokenized assets provide opportunities to people who would have never had a chance to directly own such assets or participate in offerings
• DLMI hopes to capture a significant market share by offering SEC-registered tokens, appealing to investors who might be reticent to purchase digital assets like cryptocurrency that are not regulated

Tokenization is the process of developing and offering a digital asset that represents an existing, real-world asset. BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, is at the forefront of this digital transformation that is driving greater accessibility and efficiency within the traditional finance and investment spaces. Led by CEO Larry Fink, a visionary who holds that tokenization of financial assets will be “the next generation for markets” (https://ibn.fm/mRSiu), BlackRock recently launched the BlackRock USD Institutional Digital Liquidity (“BUIDL”) Fund, its first tokenized fund, issued on the Ethereum public blockchain (https://ibn.fm/0Da6G).

Larry Fink is not alone in his assessment of a future characterized by tokenized assets. Other executives, including Jonathan Larsen, the CEO of Ping A Global Voyager Fund, and Brian J. Esposito, the CEO of multi-strategy operating company Diamond Lake Minerals (OTC: DLMI), share this vision. For his part, Larsen believes that tokens in finance are “a really massive trend… a much bigger story than cryptocurrencies,” while Esposito regards tokenization as a game-changing concept and technology for investors.

Speaking in a recent interview with Proactive Investors, Esposito talked about the potential of tokenization of financial assets in redefining investing, saying, “It opens up a global audience to buy into real-world assets that [they] never had a chance to buy into before.” This democratization of investment opportunities, Esposito continued, opens up opportunities to people who would have otherwise and previously never had a chance to create wealth, own assets, or be part of offerings.

Esposito’s statement also captures another advantage of tokenization: scale. It enables companies like DLMI to access a wider, global audience, who, by investing “a little bit of money into something,” can help the companies “create liquidity, as opposed to going to a smaller audience and asking them for a lot of money, which they may not have.”

A key technology that supports and facilitates tokenization is the blockchain, which, Esposito explained, provides a “complete digital footprint” of where all transactions occur and acts as proof of transfer of ownership, ergo guaranteeing transparency. For instance, he stated, the blockchain records all transactions that may have occurred “from an initial primary offering or purchase and then how [the token] may have exchanged hands in the secondary market.”

Moreover, tokenization and the blockchain reduce transaction fees and promise instantaneous settlement, doing away with the need for traditional clearing houses or settlement processes. DLMI also believes that advanced technologies like zero-knowledge proofs could facilitate user verification without exposing sensitive data, making the financial system more efficient and secure.

Diamond Lake Minerals aims to be a parent company by responsibly innovating and developing valuable industry-agnostic traditional businesses (subsidiaries) that are, by and large, real-world assets. Employing state-of-the-art technology, the company then tokenizes these real-world assets, creating SEC-registered security tokens, a specific type of digital assets.

DLMI believes its adherence to SEC regulations sets new industry standards for security and compliance. Moreover, it positions the company to capture a significant market share in a rapidly growing digital asset ecosystem by appealing to investors who might be reluctant to purchase unregulated digital assets like cryptocurrency. This is especially convenient presently as reports emerge showing that retail traders are beginning to return to the crypto market after the 2022 bear run (https://ibn.fm/Nt3lI).

With experts viewing tokenization as the future and BlackRock launching its first token fund, DLMI is actively involved in what appears poised to be a market-defining trend. And by buying into Diamond Lake Minerals, potential investors get front-seat access to a market that’s on the up – experts believe the tokenization market could reach $10 trillion in 2030 (https://ibn.fm/3lzcW).

• Bravo has set its sights on uplisting to a national exchange, a move that will align with its rapid-growth strategy, to potentially attract more investors and provide access to funding
• The company recently finalized the acquisition of the TVee NOW(TM) platform, a cutting-edge over-the-top (“OTT”) streaming technology
• The company expects the platform, set to launch in Q1 of 2024, will be the cornerstone for upcoming ventures
• Bravo is actively engaged in diligent efforts, including technology development, mergers and acquisitions, product launches, and exploring white-label opportunities, in preparation for anticipated exponential growth

Bravo Multinational (OTC: BRVO), a conglomerate spanning entertainment, media, hospitality, and technology sectors, is implementing a rapid-growth strategy that builds on a strong, solid foundation of streaming media and technology. The company recently acquired the TVee NOW(TM) streaming platform, fulfilling the terms of an asset purchase agreement signed earlier this year with Streaming TVEE, Inc. (https://ibn.fm/io291).

This strategic move, Bravo says, will enable the company to not only own cutting-edge over-the-top (“OTT”) streaming technology but also adopt a hybrid model that combines advertising-based Video-on-Demand (“AVOD”) with subscription-based Video-on-Demand (“SVOD”) services.

TVee NOW has been in development for some time now, with Bravo last year unveiling plans to launch it (https://ibn.fm/RrKKW). At the time, Grant Cramer, Bravo Multinational Chairman and CEO, termed the future launch of the platform as one that “holds immense significance within our business framework.” This, he said, was because TVee Now aims to “seamlessly unite every facet” of the enterprise.

Following the finalized acquisition, Bravo hopes to launch the TVEE NOW platform in Q1 of 2024, representing a new chapter and serving as the cornerstone for upcoming ventures. TVee NOW is designed to deliver content directly to users via the internet through either a freely downloadable application on smartphones, tablets, and smart TVs powered by iOS and Android or a web browser. The platform is expected to be part of Bravo’s plans to bring together live streaming, live events and production, iconic branded immersive attractions, lifestyle products, and food and beverage through strategic partnerships, mergers and acquisitions, technology development, white-labeling opportunities, and product launches.

When executing such a growth strategy, access to capital is crucial. Conveniently, large stock exchanges so happen to be centers where this much-needed capital resides – exchanges like the NYSE or NASDAQ are known to expose companies to vast swathes of investors who, by purchasing shares of common stock, provide the capital. Simply put, when companies’ stocks are elevated from alternative markets to large exchanges, a process known as uplisting, they potentially attract more investors and can more easily access funding.

Against this backdrop, Bravo Multinational recently hired Richard (“Rick”) Jones of Jones & Haley, P.C. as a legal advisor to assist the company with its plan to uplist onto a national stock exchange. A seasoned securities lawyer and former SEC staffer, Rick has decades of legal and financial experience and has guided multiple companies toward uplisting (https://ibn.fm/Nljnh).

“We are excited to announce this important next step in our uplisting process. Rick will assist our corporate team with the expertise necessary for a successful transaction. In consultation with Rick and our other Board of Directors, we are evaluating the NYSE-American and Nasdaq Capital Markets as our two options for a potential uplisting. Our goal is to accomplish this milestone as soon as possible,” commented Cramer.

In addition to leveraging the benefits the uplisting may bring, Bravo is also out to capitalize on the expansion of digital connectivity with its TVee NOW platform, which has caused rapid revenue growth and increased profitability in the media industry, according to Bravo’s COO Kayla Slick.

“The proliferation of smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices has obviously fueled the exponential growth of digital advertising expenditure,” said Slick in a 2023 news release (https://ibn.fm/Sw6pz). “The advent of digital and mobile technologies has not only created new avenues for content creators and distributors but has also reshaped consumer behavior patterns, driving the need for strategic adaptation and innovation, all of which we plan to address.”

Accordingly, Bravo’s proprietary platform is designed to offer more personalized and engaging experiences as well as more targeted advertising options, showing different ads to viewers based on their viewing history or demographics. As a result, the platform is expected to enable advertisers to reach a more specific audience, resulting in higher revenue.

“By staying ahead of the curve and investing in new technology, talent, and multimedia channels, we can shape the future of the streaming industry and create a very profitable and sustainable business model,” the company says on its website.
