• Cepton recently revealed that it had recently entered a partnership with Fibre Based Integrations to develop a lidar-based vehicle detection solution, with the goal of furthering Cape Town’s smart transportation infrastructure
• The smart transportation solution ranks amongst one of over 100 projects which Cepton is currently pursuing, for applications of its lidar technology outside of its traditional use within autonomous vehicles
• Separately, the company announced their intention of participating in investor conferences hosted by Cowen and Berenberg in early March 2022, with the goal of updating institutional investors on their ongoing operational highlights

By most standards, Cepton (NASDAQ: CPTN), a Silicon Valley innovator and leader in high-performance MMR(R) lidar solutions, has enjoyed an active start to life listed on the Nasdaq Exchange. Having formally commenced trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on February 11, 2022, Cepton Inc. has announced a number of recent operational highlights in recent weeks, which include entering a partnership with Fibre Based Integrations to facilitate smart transportation infrastructure in Cape Town, South Africa whilst simultaneously, taking part in a spate of investor conferences in a bid to heighten the company’s profile amongst the institutional investors in attendance. In early March 2022, Cepton Inc. revealed that it was partnering with Fibre Based Integrations, an established fiber optics systems house, to develop a lidar-based vehicle detection system, aimed at assisting the creation of smart transportation infrastructure within South Africa’s Cape Town. The use of Cepton’s innovative lidar technology will allow the system to provide authorities with analytics designed to improve traffic flow and safety for motorists and pedestrians, alike. Based on this information, system operators will be able to ascertain how a specific intersection or piece of road is being used; more importantly, it also marks a significant diversification for Cepton away from their products’ more traditional use as an automotive sensor technology (https://ibn.fm/D3RPJ). Originally developed by NASA to measure objects in space (https://ibn.fm/e5q51), lidar technology has been widely acclaimed by the autonomous vehicle sector as a key sensor technology, with Cepton currently in discussion with all of the world’s top-10 automotive OEMs for the supply of their proprietary solution. However, and given the technology’s higher spatial resolution – which allows it to perform better than cameras and radars in various weather and lighting conditions, lidar technology has rapidly become a key enabler for smart city infrastructure solutions the world over. Josh Goosen, System Engineer at Fibre Based Integrations remarked in relation to the Cepton partnership, “The reason we chose to deploy lidars in our vehicle detection and classification systems is their superior accuracy. We found Cepton lidars to be the best performing and most accurate compared with others we tested, and this has unlocked new possibilities for implementing our smart city solutions with the City of Cape Town.” Simultaneously, Cepton Inc. also seized on the opportunity to announce that they would be attending investor conferences held by Cowen and Berenberg, respectively with a view towards updating institutional investors on the company’s ongoing operational highlights and investment thesis. In addition, the company also announced that they would be providing investors with a further business update as well as releasing their financial results for the 2021 financial year following the market close on Thursday, March 10, 2022.

• Delic Holdings Corp, a leader in new medicines and treatments for a modern world, understands that research is integral for both the rapidly developing psychedelics and cannabis industries, and for psychedelics to be widely adopted for the treatment of mental health issues
• Dr. Markus Roggen, President and CSO of Delic Labs, recently spoke at this year’s Emerald Conference, and has reiterated the importance of leveraging AI in crafting products for the cannabis industry
• Delic is continually expanding its efforts to conduct and encourage even more research and education in support of high-quality products for more people, supporting mental health while building shareholder value

Since its inception, Delic Holdings (CSE: DELC) (OTCQB: DELCF) has remained committed to emphasizing the value of research and education in support of mental health. In addition, it has helped drive the reframing of the psychedelic conversation while being at the forefront of the ongoing psychedelics renaissance. Delic understands that research is integral if psychedelics are to be widely adopted for treating mental issues. This is further reinforced by Delic Labs, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Delic and the only licensed entity exclusively focused on research and the development of psilocybin vaporization technology in Canada. Psilocybin has proven to be an effective treatment for depression, a condition affecting 50% of Americans today, and has received approval from the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). The FDA has also approved esketamine, a fast-acting antidepressant that can reduce suicide rates which currently stand at one suicide every 40 seconds. Additionally, psilocybin has also proven useful and effective for smoking cessation, an issue that affects over 50 million people in the United States (https://ibn.fm/kKw7w). Delic’s focus on research is moving society closer to the full adoption of psychedelics for the treatment of mental health issues by pushing the narrative regarding psychedelics, their usefulness, and their potential, even beyond mental health treatment. In addition, Delic is also expanding the boundaries of how such research is conducted, particularly given its current use of Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) for crafting products for the cannabis industry. Dr. Markus Roggen, the President and Chief Science Officer (“CSO”) of Delic Labs, recently spoke at this year’s Emerald Conference held February 2022, in San Diego. Known for providing a platform for scientific communication and collaboration, this conference was an excellent avenue for Delic to share its progress and standing on psychedelics and cannabis research. Of note was Dr. Roggen’s emphasis on the importance of why leveraging AI can help increase the quality of the extract while keeping overhead at an all-time low (https://ibn.fm/dyEZg). “Focusing solely on extraction yields for cannabis extraction operations is an imprecise way to think about production,” noted Dr. Roggen. “Quality of extract, cost of extraction, and loss in post-processing should all be considered. Our laboratory undertook extensive experimental studies on the extraction behavior of various solvents, and we’re excited to present our latest results and insights from developing and utilizing our extraction optimization AI,” he added. Dr. Roggen’s research into process optimization and analytical methods has earned him several awards, including the ElSohly Award of the ACS, the 40 under 40 by Marijuana Venture Magazine, as well as the Cannabis Scientist Power List 2020 & 2021. His leadership of Delic Labs represents what Delic Holdings stands for, the value that it sees in R&D, and the potential that psychedelics hold for mental health treatment. Delic is continually expanding its efforts to conduct and encourage even more research and education in support of high-quality products for the masses. By doing so, the company generates shareholder value as well as effective solutions for those struggling with mental health issues.

• INND expands availability of its offering through Walmart Canada, its flagship online store
• Leveraging its successful relationship with the North American retail heavyweight, INND aims to deliver on its ambitious growth potential
• Through Walmart.ca, INND will be able to reach 1.5 million customers that visit this e-Commerce platform daily

InnerScope Hearing Technologies (OTC: INND), a leading Direct-to-Consumer disruptor in the hearing aid technology space, appears uncompromised in its readiness to accelerate its growth trajectory in the time to come. The company announced that some of its HearingAssist and iHear hearing products and related supplies would be available for purchase on Walmart.ca, with a view to increasing its offering on the platform over the coming weeks (https://ibn.fm/0WqLa). As a verified wholesaler with Walmart for premium affordable direct-to-consumer hearing products, INND appears well-positioned to leverage the relationship established with this major retailer to solidify its presence in the growing North American market. The company’s wholly owned subsidiary, HearingAssist, is already considered Walmart’s largest direct-ship and wholesale hearing aid supplier. Direct-to-Consumer (“DTC”) space has seen rapid growth since the start of the pandemic, leading to the retail titan doubling down on online selling. As a result, its online platform Walmart.ca appears to be a thriving place as it attracts an increasing number of consumers – in 2021, its e-Commerce sales grew at the rate of 11% year over year and at a staggering 90% compared with two years ago (https://ibn.fm/rj6VJ). Given the estimates that around 65% of Canadians older than 70 years suffer from hearing loss while more than half of those between 40 and 79 have at least mild hearing impairment, expansion into this geographical direction appears to be a natural evolution of INND’s expansion strategy. Since 77% of them are not aware that they suffer from hearing impairment, many don’t seek help from a Registered Audiologist or Registered Hearing Aid Practitioner, which presents a vast unexplored market INND can tap into. Reaching this sizeable addressable market through Walmart’s Canadian e-Commerce platform could potentially take INND’s market position to new heights. Having access to Walmart’s flagship Canadian online store to serve as a launchpad for the company’s Canadian expansion can be a considerable advantage as INND will be able to offer its unique hearing products and related supplies to more than 1.5 million customers that visit the Walmart.ca website daily. Matthew Moore, President and CEO of InnerScope Hearing Technologies, is enthusiastic about the company’s latest move. “We look forward to continuing to build and expand our relationship with Walmart through InnerScope’s subsidiary HearingAssist, America’s number-one affordable hearing aid brand and currently Walmart’s largest hearing aid supplier. We believe InnerScope, with its growing market presence and footprint, is leading the way for delivering affordable hearing healthcare in-store or right to consumers’ homes through major retailers.”, he said when announcing the company’s Canadian e-Commerce launch.

• A “bear run” in California’s volatile wholesale cannabis market may be over
• “A wholesale turnaround would be welcome news for thousands of growers across the state
• SGMD operates Nug Avenue, a cannabis delivery service located in the Los Angeles metropolitan area

As wholesale cannabis prices increase in California, cannabis companies operating in the state are already seeing improvement (https://ibn.fm/HCYdn). One of those companies, Sugarmade (OTC: SGMD), has set its eyes on expanding its end-market access as a central player in the growing California cannabis delivery marketplace while also developing its in-house cannabis production capacity to verticalize operations in the space. “A bear run in California’s volatile wholesale cannabis market appears to be over,” reported an MJBizDaily article announcing that California wholesale cannabis prices were rebounding. “The price of bulk flower — which hit rock bottom in November and squeezed growers financially — is starting to rebound amid an uptick in sales, according to several operators who told MJBizDaily they closed the books last month on a high note. “A wholesale turnaround would be welcome news for thousands of growers across the state, from craft producers in the Emerald Triangle to some of the nation’s largest cultivators in Santa Barbara County,” stated the article, which noted that prices began to drop nearly a year ago. “In addition to falling prices, many growers have been struggling because of a thriving underground market, high taxes and a limited number of retail outlets for their product.” The article quotes several growers who reported seeing “a modest rise in wholesale pricing” in January, which is in line with traditional seasonal spikes after big outdoor harvests that flood the market in October and November. “The average price per pound of cannabis flower is up to about $750 to $1,100 for quality, big buds and $300-$450 for smalls. . . . . That’s a nice bump from November, when prices bottomed out at roughly $400 per pound for AAA-grade flower amid a glut of marijuana.” In the article, cannabis operators noted that they were seeing an increase in pricing and uptick in sales, which is very promising entering the new yea; the article also observed that consumer demand was driving higher-quality product. Sugarmade currently operates Nug Avenue, a cannabis delivery service located in the Los Angeles metropolitan area. The location opened in March 2021 and by the end of June 2021, it had more than 10,000 unique members (https://ibn.fm/1lZLa). That growth has continued, and the company now has nearly 25,000 unique members, with plans for a second location underway and other locations being explored. In addition, SGMD has implemented new cannabis delivery technology to establish a competitive advantage in its core delivery zone: the Onfleet last-mile delivery solution with Blaze. And Sugarmade is finalizing plans for its first planting at the large 640-acre outdoor cultivation site associated with its recently acquired Lemon Glow subsidiary; the company believes all necessary approvals will be in place in time for the 2022 planting season. Sugarmade is a product and branding marketing company investing in operations and technologies with disruptive potential. The company’s portfolio includes CarryOutsupplies.com, SugarRush(TM), NUG Avenue, Lemon Glow and Budcars. For more information, visit the company’s website at www.Sugarmade.com.

• Hollywall formed a new R&D division to explore the use of cryptocurrency technologies, token omics, NFTs, and the blockchain
• The company is working on the HW Network digital delivery platform, a revolutionary digital distribution and verification system designed to maximize quality control, revenues for creators and copyright owners, and customer delivery
• NFTs have garnered a lot of interest and have provided a different avenue for fans to support artists directly
• Hollywall’s foray into music NFTs fulfills its commitment to empowering creatives as well as offering value

Interest in non-fungible tokens (“NFTs”) ballooned in 2021, resulting in unprecedented growth in NFT sales to $25 billion in 2021, up from just $95 million a year earlier (https://ibn.fm/cGXxw). The buzz around NFTs percolated different sectors, reaching the ears of both laypeople and experts and, as a result, earning recognition as 2021’s word of the year, according to the Collins Dictionary (https://ibn.fm/MWaNE). Still, as a recent Forbes article notes, NFTs have the potential to disrupt vast swaths of industries and sectors (https://ibn.fm/RShiY). “Many experts expect NFTs to prove especially transformative in shaping the future of music. Songs, albums, music, lyrics, and soundbites can all be NFTs,” reads the article. “When you take a deep dive into what NFTs enable, NFTs seem especially poised to define the future of music.” The article discusses how NFTs enable equitable compensation and greater potential for remixes and collaborations. They also capitalize on scarcity appeals and, at the same time, let fans exploit novel opportunities to enrich and deepen connections with their favorite musicians. “When you closely examine the value propositions of NFTs… NFTs seem poised to transform the music industry,” the article concludes. In understanding the inherent value of NFTs, Hollywall Entertainment (OTC: HWAL) “is developing a one-of-a-kind, state-of-the-art, digital distribution and verification system designed to maximize customer delivery, quality control, and revenues for artists, writers, content developers, shareholders, and copyright owners” (https://ibn.fm/QPD3L). Christened the HW Network digital delivery platform, the revolutionary digital distribution and verification system is expected to change the way the media and entertainment industries carry out their businesses in the future. And to ensure its success, Hollywall has formed a new research & development (“R&D”) division to explore the use of cryptocurrency technologies, token omics, NFTs, and the blockchain. The Collins Dictionary defines NFTs as a unique digital certificate that is registered in a ledger known as the blockchain and records the ownership of collectibles and creative works. With Nashville-based rock band Kings of Leon generating $2 million from the release of an album as an NFT last year and celebrated DJ-cum-producer Steve Aoki dropping an NFT collection that became “one of the most expensive digital pieces of art sold to date,” according to Business Insider (https://ibn.fm/0qLPH), NFTs are becoming an integral part of how fans can support artists. Hollywall understands this. By offering a system that enables artists, creators, writers, musicians to set up and sell NFTs, Hollywall would be fulfilling its commitment to empowerment and value provision. “We serve some of the finest creators, writers, developers, and music artisans of our time by providing a business solution and distribution platform that maximizes a global audience reach,” the company’s website reads (https://ibn.fm/PswpC).

• Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has demonstrated the harmful effects of the world’s reliance on fossil fuels, strengthening the case for replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy sources
• The invasion has destabilized the fertilizers market, with Russia threatening to halt exports and Yara announcing a planned reduction in production
• FuelPositive understands the importance of independence from market forces that may negatively affect consumers
• The company is working on rolling out its green ammonia production system, with the planned launch of initial units set for this summer

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has greatly impacted the global economy, with commodity prices soaring to all-time highs and the energy sector reeling from the ever-increasing cost of crude oil and natural gas. Described as a “needless war of choice” in a March 8 White House Fact Sheet (https://ibn.fm/aMo1x), the conflict has brought to light the global dependence on fossil fuels, the deleterious impacts of their curtailed supply on whole sectors, and their ability to fund and fuel wars. To that end, countries the world over are now working to avert such adverse outcomes in the future. In an Executive Order announced in the foregoing Fact Sheet, the United States banned the import of Russian oil, liquified natural gas, and coal to the country. The ban, the Fact Sheet notes, builds on various economic sanctions the United States and other countries have already imposed on Russia, with the latest move aiming to deprive Russia’s President Vladimir Putin of the economic resources he relies on to wage war. For context, last year the U.S. imported about 700,000 barrels per day of crude oil and refined petroleum products from Russia, contributing to the latter’s almost $500 million daily revenue from the sale of fossil fuel. But observers note the United States’ move will drive up the country’s energy prices even further. While the White House acknowledged that some of its allies might not be capable of completely banning Russian natural gas and oil, the European Union (“EU”) policymakers in charge of energy matters recently announced a 10-part plan to cut the EU nations’ deep reliance on Russian natural gas and accelerate the continent’s move away from fossil fuels. The plan, a recent Inside Climate News article reports, aims to cut the EU countries’ Russian natural gas import by about 33% within the next year, before eventually doing away with them altogether (https://ibn.fm/BgUe2). Overall, the reactive measures EU nations and the U.S. have come up with or instituted strengthen the case for a move away from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources, and from centralized production and supply chains to decentralized, local production. They make a case for these changes in other sectors as well. For instance, Russia is seeking to end fertilizer exports by local producers, a move that has sent shockwaves in the global markets, threatening to push the already high prices of the vital crop nutrients to previously uncharted territories (https://ibn.fm/yWnCf) and undermine food security. Russia is the largest exporter of fertilizer; more specifically, it holds the first position as the world’s largest exporter of urea and number two for both potash and urea. This impending threat is exacerbated by a recent announcement by one of the world’s largest manufacturers of fertilizer, Yara, that it would reduce its ammonia and urea output in France and Italy due to the high natural gas prices (https://ibn.fm/h7BWg). The various effects of the Russia-instigated conflict in Ukraine perfectly exemplify the market forces narrative synonymous with the global trade and which negatively affects consumers, including farmers, in situations such as this. FuelPositive (TSX.V: NHHH) (OTCQB: NHHHF) understands this and has long been championing independence and decentralization through the development of its in situ, modular, scalable, proprietary green ammonia production system that, powered by sustainable electricity, produces green ammonia from water and air. The system does away with the reliance on fossil fuels, which are central to the production of both hydrogen and traditional (“grey”) anhydrous ammonia. The former is produced by combining steam and natural gas (methane) at high temperatures, while the latter is generated through the highly pollutive and energy-intensive Haber-Bosch process. And with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (“IPCC”) having recently released its Sixth Assessment Report entitled “Climate Change 2022: Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability” highlighting the effects of climate change (https://ibn.fm/GlHIX), FuelPositive’s system, set for initial rollout late this summer, will hit the market at just the right time. FuelPositive is positioning its system to target the agricultural sector by providing a decentralized source of the much-needed green ammonia fertilizer, especially given that 80% of all ammonia produced worldwide is used to manufacture fertilizer. As a decentralized source of green ammonia, FuelPositive’s on-farm system will offer independence from price fluctuations and an unpredictable supply chain, as established in a Manitoba case study conducted last year (https://ibn.fm/Id1Kw). The investigation revealed that the company’s technology was roughly 40% cheaper to the end-user than a similar quantity of grey ammonia at the time. And skyrocketing anhydrous ammonia prices will only increase these comparative operating margins. In the present unpredictable market where prices appear to be on an unfettered increase, FuelPositive’s system could offer the much-needed reprieve, insulating farmers against the harsh market forces and subsequent unexpected price hikes that may eat into their profits. Farmers will have absolute control over the amount of ammonia they produce on their farms, when they want to use the ammonia, and the cost of its production – all while eliminating carbon emissions from the production process.

• Applied Magix’s latest product, the MagixStatus cables are expected to be ready for shipment and delivery within 30 days
• The new advisory board to be announced in the near future will guide Applied Magix on its journey toward expansion
• SPYR has updated its branding to reflect the fresh and dynamic attitude that the company wishes to convey to consumers

SPYR (OTCQB: SPYR), dba SPYR Technologies, a technology company that develops and resells Apple(R)-ecosystem-compatible products for the multibillion-dollar Internet of Things (“IoT”) Smart Home and Connected Car markets, through its subsidiary Applied Magix inc., recently announced multiple significant milestones achieved in Q1 2022. Most notably, the company opened up pre-orders for a new and exciting product, the MagixStatus Cables; it has created an advisory board for expansion efforts; and it has implemented a series of branding changes to reflect the company’s current and future direction. SPYR is continuing to identify and target acquisitions to enable the company’s growing footprint in the industry while expanding its product offering to consumers, including artificial intelligence (“AI”) and smart technology products. The MagixStatus Cables will be soon available for purchase via a special pre-sale page through the Applied Magix website. When discussing the pre-sale of the MagixStatus Cables, Applied Magix CEO Dr. Harald Zink said the company wanted to open up pre-orders for its “newest, most exciting” product while it is ramping up production and waiting for final packaging to be ready (https://ibn.fm/cIYEE). “These are truly the better mousetrap of charging cables, and we are set to have the first shipment delivered within 30 days,” Zink added. “By allowing our customers to get in line early via pre-sales orders, we are also giving them the opportunity to enjoy a pre-sales discount on the cables of 20%. Everybody wins, right?” Also, in the near future, Applied Magix will be announcing (and featuring) a new advisory board, whose sole purpose is to support the company’s growth and expansion efforts (https://ibn.fm/AHHAt). The advisory board will assist with the upcoming challenges the company faces by allowing consultation with individuals who possess experience and knowledge – proving invaluable to the growth and continued success of both parent company and subsidiary. “The advisory board concept will be of great help entering the coming phase of market share and revenue growth, especially as we further expand marketing and product development,” SPYR CEO Tim Matula stated. “SPYR is looking forward to working with such distinguished and experienced executives who we have identified as potential members of the Applied Magix advisory board.” In a move designed to further the company’s future growth, SPYR has updated its brand design – exuding a design that moves toward the fresh and dynamic attitude the company wishes to express moving forward. Right now, the new logo design will be implemented internally on all corporate communications and on the main SPYR website (https://ibn.fm/Zf9AQ). According to Zink, the new logo “really reflects the fresh, collaborative dynamic between SPYR and Applied Magix. I knew we were in good hands with Tim when he switched to an iPhone and iPad early on.” “We felt it was the right time and that a visual update was necessary to reflect not just our new direction and new management, but an entirely new SPYR that embraces teamwork and common goals. Collaborating with our friends from Applied Magix, we are moving towards a fresh future, and we wanted a fresh, dynamic new logo to reflect that,” Matula added.

• Employer survey respondents rank “strong executive leadership” in top-five of key attributes they look for in ideal oil and gas employer
• Company’s executive team intrinsically shapes culture, performance of the broader business
• Laredo executives bring depth, breadth of experience to their various roles

Strong executive leadership is a high priority for employees in the oil and gas industry, according to the latest Rigzone Ideal Employer Survey (https://ibn.fm/aZZhe). That’s good news for Laredo Oil (OTC: LRDC), an oil and gas exploration and production (E&P) company, whose management team boasts an impressive lineup of experienced veteran leaders. “There’s a saying that a company is only as good as its employees,” the Rigzone article stated. “And while that’s true to an extent, it takes the right leadership to encourage those employees to succeed. Respondents to Rigzone’s 2019 Ideal Employer Survey ranked ‘strong executive leadership’ fifth out of 23 attributes they look for in their ideal oil and gas employer. In 2018, it was ranked sixth.” The article quoted Kevin Davidson, managing director of energy executive search firm Ducatus Partners, who said that “successful leadership runs far deeper than merely the appointment of an experienced chief executive. . . . The correlation between a company’s mission and the day-to-day actions, decisions and communication of the executive team intrinsically shape the culture and performance of the broader business.” Amy Chronis, the managing partner for Deloitte’s Houston office, noted in the article that executive leadership is critically important in setting the tone and example for a company’s success. “Teams will often take their cues from senior leaders in a range of situations, so leaders have the ability and responsibility to create a sustainable culture of success,” she said. Laredo’s top management — CEO and board chair Mark See and CFO, treasurer and director Bradley Sparks — are the epitome of leaders who shoulder the responsibility of a company and create a culture of success. See has been in his current roles with the company since 2009 and has garnered more than 30 years of experience in heavy civil, natural resources and the E&P industries, including being recognized as one of the top 25 engineers in North America by the Engineering News record. A member of the Society of Mining Engineers and the Society of Petroleum Engineers, he founded and led Rock Well Petroleum, a private oil & gas company, prior to joining Laredo; he also served as president of Oil Recovery Enhancement LLC, a private oil company. A licensed CPA and graduate of West Point and MIT, Sparks also joined Laredo in 2009. Prior to coming aboard, he served as CEO, president and director at Visualant Inc. and as chief financial officer at WatchGuard Technologies Inc. In addition, he has served in multiple executive leadership positions in telecommunications and internet companies. He also has extensive experience in the private investment and emerging-growth spaces having led two IPOs — Omnipoint Corporation in 1996 and Digex Inc. in 1999. A retired Army veteran, Sparks currently serves on the board of directors of Laredo and Comrise, a private company with operations in China, Southeast Asia and the United States. See and Sparks are joined by Laredo directors Donald Beckham and Michael Price. Beckham is founder of Beckham Resources Inc., which has operated for more than three decades as a licensed, bonded and insured operator in good standing with the Railroad Commission of Texas. His expertise is in the acquisition, exploitation, exploration and production enhancement of mature oil and gas fields. Price has more than 40 years of senior financial and petroleum experience in the global oil and gas industry, including serving as a principal in Octagon Energy Advisors, a Houston-based energy investment advisory firm, for the past two decades. He has also served as managing director at ING Capital, CFO at Forman Petroleum Corporation and managing director at Chase Manhattan Bank. This expert team of executives are certainly well qualified to lead Laredo and inspire its employees. Based in Texas, Laredo Oil is a publicly traded oil and gas exploration and production company. Specializing in conventional and enhanced oil recovery techniques, the company is engaged in the acquisition and development of both undervalued quality conventional oil and gas properties and select mature oil fields. In addition to pursuing conventional recovery methods in target locations, Laredo Oil intends to utilize its proprietary Underground Gravity Drainage(TM) model, where conditions warrant, to profitably recover stranded oil reserves previously thought to be incapable of economic recovery.
