• Company ranked as one of 50 most innovative New York-Based energy-management companies and startups
• Companies were selected based on exceptional performance in innovation, growth, management or societal impact
• StorEn also cited as partner with organization investigate battery storage options and increase the lifetime of redox flow batteries

StorEn Technologies, a developer of evolutionary vanadium flow batteries with a disruptive patent-pending, all-vanadium flow battery technology, was recently listed as one of the 50 Most Innovative New York Based Energy Management Companies & Startups by Futurology Inc. (https://ibn.fm/4VXZR). In addition, the company also garnered some attention from the Graphene Council, which called out the company in an article touting a surprise ingredient discovered in the search for improved electricity grid capacity (https://ibn.fm/iJ2wA). “This article showcases our top picks for the best New York-based Energy Management companies,” reported Futurology when releasing its 50 Most Innovative List. “These startups and companies are taking a variety of approaches to innovating the energy management industry, but are all exceptional companies well worth a follow.” Futurology noted that it had tried to select companies across the size spectrum from cutting-edge startups to established brands. The companies were selected based on exceptional performance in innovation, growth, management or societal impact, noted the article, which called out StorEn specifically for its efforts to bring proprietary real innovation to vanadium flow batteries. In its article titled “Schulich Researchers Discover Surprise Ingredient for Improved Electricity Grid Capacity,” the Graphene Council noted partners that were helping the organization in its quest to investigate battery storage options and increase the lifetime of redox flow batteries. “Not only are the researchers excited about the possibilities, but partners have also come forward,” the article noted. “The University of Waterloo and Kitchener-based Evercloak Inc. are working on the technology for coating the membrance with the graphene, while Roberts says his team will test the technology using a small five-kilowatt commercial redox flow battery in a research microgrid that is being built on-campus. The battery is being supplied by U.S. company, StorEn Technologies Inc.” The article stated that redox flow batteries, which store electrical energy in liquids that are pumped through the battery, are being developed for energy storage on electricity grids for things like managing intermittent renewable-energy generation. The article quoted Dr. Edward (Ted) Roberts, PhD, who has been investigating battery storage options, with a focus on increasing the lifetime of the batteries. “For electricity grid storage, batteries are flexible and can be implemented anywhere, but they are expensive,” says Roberts. “Key metrics for batteries are the round-trip efficiency, power density, energy density and lifetime. “Other battery technologies such as lithium-ion don’t have the flexibility of RFBs to increase the amount of energy stored, as more batteries are needed to do that,” Roberts continued. “RFBs offer design flexibility, have a longer lifetime and a lower cost per kilowatt-hour delivered over their lifetime.” StorEn has developed evolutionary vanadium flow batteries. Incubated at the Clean Energy Business Incubator Program (“CEBIP”) within Stony Brook University in New York, the company is building upon the strengths of vanadium flow batteries to revolutionize the world of residential and industrial energy storage. In part, StorEn’s technology has enhanced the electrical efficiency of the stack and energy density of the electrolyte and module, ultimately reducing costs and improving performance.

• GreenBox POS CMO Jacqueline B. Reynolds recently appeared on The Wild West Crypto Show hosted by Crypto Cowboys Drew Taylor and Brent Bates
• Reynolds emphasized the need for businesses to adopt technologies that improve user experience, convenience, and make work easier; GreenBox offers blockchain-based, cost-saving, fast payment technology that companies can use
• Reynolds, however, noted that businesses and individuals alike are apprehensive about adopting such technology owing to distrust and a lack of education and understanding
• GreenBox is working on communications that will enhance people’s comfort level, influencing the adoption of its solutions

Guided by the goal to become the prominent, ultimate, best digital payments company globally, GreenBox POS (NASDAQ: GBOX) is leveraging its experienced, passionate workforce and differentiated, ownable, world-class technology to make people’s lives much easier as well as give them true payment solutions. This was the introductory message by company Chief Marketing Officer (“CMO”) Jacqueline B. Reynolds during an interview with hosts Drew Taylor and Brent Bates in a January 22 episode of The Wild West Crypto Show, the leading source for the latest crypto news, inside information, and exclusive interviews with the most influential personalities in the crypto space (https://ibn.fm/v92e8). Reynolds joined GreenBox last November bringing decades of experience to her CMO role, where she will shepherd all marketing strategies, including the company’s communications plan and brand positioning. Reynolds has previously led some of the world’s renowned companies, including Coca-Cola (NYSE: KO), McDonald’s (NYSE: MCD), Verizon (NYSE: VZ), Walmart (NYSE: WMT), and other Fortune 500 companies (https://ibn.fm/JJv0S). Based off of her 10-year tenure at Coca-Cola, a beverage behemoth that has become a digital-first technology company, Reynolds emphasized the need for all businesses to exploit technology to offer consumers a smooth user experience and convenience, as well as make their lives easier. “If you can think of the world’s biggest beverage company as a technology company, all of us need to be in the business of technology. When you are in the business of technology, you need to make it simple and hassle-free. User experience is what everybody is looking at,” Reynolds communicated. Notably, user experience is part of what GreenBox’s blockchain-based payment solutions are designed to provide. At the same time, the company offers technology that businesses can use to save on transaction costs. “The small business sector is what runs this country. You’re talking about a group of people that are not only entrepreneurs but also really hard working. So many people put their life savings into these small businesses in the hopes of being successful, and when you think about so much of that going to the credit card companies [in transaction charges], it’s pretty irrational. I would think that it is the most intelligent choice to try to save as many of those pennies as possible and if there’s a solution out there that gives you that raise, take full advantage of it,” Reynolds stated. However, Reynolds noted that distrust and the lack of education and understanding on available alternatives such as blockchain-based cost-saving payment and finance management solutions hinder their increased uptake. She explained that while blockchain is a new way to manage finances, there are safe, compliant, and protected ways to accomplish this, and that is what GreenBox is all about. “What we’re laser-focused on at GreenBox is ensuring that people trust what we offer; I think there’s an amount of distrust, and we know there’s a lot of fraud out there too that people need to be cautious of… For small businesses, it’s up to them to take the initiative to get educated, and it’s up to brands like us to help them in that journey. What we’re trying to do at GreenBox is truly drive the communication on this so that people have a comfort level, just the same as we’ve adopted all kinds of other things. Change is tough, but we’re here to usher people into this current world, which is very beneficial to the public,” Reynolds concluded.

• The rare earth element market expected to see interest from investors, governments around the world in coming year
• Supply will need to pick up to meet global demand for REEs, primarily from EVs
• Restoring REE production to U.S. will greatly benefit the nation’s economy and clean energy sector

Last year saw more major developments in the rare earth elements (“REE”) space than the last seven years combined, according to a recent InvesBrain report (https://ibn.fm/Mlutg). Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR), which has historically been a leading U.S. uranium mining company, is keenly interested in the space, as the company has unique licenses, infrastructure and capabilities that can be deployed in the REE sector. “Following an uncertain 2020 on the back of the COVID-19 pandemic, the rare earth market continued to see interest from investors and governments around the world in 2021,” the report stated. “Rare earths, used in the high-strength magnets found in much of the latest tech, from smartphones to wind turbines to electric vehicles (“EVs”), will be a primary focus for the resource sector well into the next decade as more countries in the west work to create supply chains less dependent on China.” As a new year begins, the growth the REE sector saw in 2021 is expected to continue, according to many analysts. “There are key supply and demand dynamics to pay attention to that could impact rare earths. A key demand catalyst in 2022 will be how the chip shortage develops,” the article noted. According to Ryan Castilloux, managing director of Adamas Intelligence, a firm that provides independent research and advice on markets for critical metals and minerals, if the global chip shortage eases this year, allowing the auto industry to return to normal, he expects demand for all major rare earths to grow healthily. And if demand continues to grow at this pace, supply will need to pick up to meet the need for REEs globally. While China will almost certainly remain a key output player, Castilloux said that the next two to three years will be transitional for the supply chain outside of China in a number of ways. “We’ll see the beginnings of some major changes in 2022 outside of China and by 2025 should see a more diverse supplier landscape, albeit one still dominated by China,” Castilloux said. One of those diverse suppliers will undoubtedly be Energy Fuels, which has seen monumental progress in its efforts to enter the REE market. The company made its initial foray into the REE sector in 2019, and in September 2020, it commenced the production and shipments of an intermediate rare earth element product, called mixed rare earth carbonate, at its White Mesa Mill in Utah (https://ibn.fm/Gguw0). This is the most advanced REE material being produced in the U.S. today. Energy Fuels is set to install REE separation, and potentially REE metal-making and alloying, capabilities at the White Mesa Mill in the next few years. “This is an exciting time for all of us at Energy Fuels in both the uranium and rare earth sectors,” said Energy Fuels president and CEO Mark Chalmers. “Restoring rare earth production to the United States will greatly benefit the entire U.S. economy and manufacturing sector by providing a domestic source of clean energy materials produced to the highest global standards for environmental protection, sustainability and human rights, while also allowing for source validation and tracking from mining through final end-use applications. “With the increased demand for rare earths — up to a fivefold demand increase over the next 10 years — we will need all hands-on deck,” he continued. “Combined with the current resurgence in uranium, rare earths represent a truly an immense opportunity.” Energy Fuels is a leading US-based uranium mining company, supplying U3O8 to major nuclear utilities. Energy Fuels also produces vanadium, as market conditions warrant, as well as rare earth carbonate. With corporate offices are in Lakewood, Colorado, near Denver, and all of its assets and employees in the United States, Energy Fuels holds three of America’s key uranium production centers: the White Mesa Mill in Utah, the Nichols Ranch ISR Project in Wyoming, and the Alta Mesa ISR Project in Texas.

• Four cannabis bills introduced on federal level indicates import to government leaders.
• Increased compromise, bipartisanship could lead to significant changes.
• ACP is strengthening position in the sector, currently operating in two states that have passed legislation approving the substance.

Federal cannabis reform has been a roller coaster ride over the past several years, with the introduction of several bills raising hopes for legislative support, especially with a change in the White House seeming to create a more cannabis-friendly atmosphere. But 2021 didn’t bring the much-anticipated change, and many companies operating in the space, including American Cannabis Partners (“ACP”), are looking for this year to be different. “Hope soared with the possibility of federal cannabis reform in 2021,” reported a Feb. 11 “National Law Review” (“NLR”) article (https://ibn.fm/Yt1O8). “But, as 2021 continued on, optimism dwindled as any advancement in federal cannabis reform was hobbled by the inability of Congress to agree on the appropriate level of reform and the proper mechanics for passage. “Specifically, tension rose amongst the elected Democrats on whether to support incremental reform (like access to banks or removal of cannabis from the list of Schedule 1 drugs) or comprehensive legalization with provisions to address social inequities stemming from the legacy of the War on Drugs,” the article continued. “And so 2021 came to an end, and the cannabis industry saw yet another year of failed meaningful change on the federal level.” According to the NLR, however, hope isn’t lost. “If anything, last year saw more bills introduced into Congress (including two new federal legalization proposals) than ever before — clearly indicating its import to our nation’s leaders,” the article reports. “Justice Clarence Thomas from the Supreme Court even subtly advised Congress to address legalization, noting that the Federal Government’s current ‘half in, half out regime’ on cannabis strained the principles of federalism.” In a quick review of existing legislation, the NLR noted four bills — the Secure and Fair Enforcement (“SAFE”) Banking Act, the Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement (“MORE”) Act, the Cannabis Administrative and Opportunity (“CAO”) Act and the States Reform Act (“SRA”) — circulating around Capitol Hill that could lead to significant changes in the cannabis space. The article stated that “Congress should thus focus on forging a compromise or middle ground on these reforms to increase bipartisan support and avoid competing and inconsistent bills floating around, resulting in another year of unwanted (and unnecessary) deadlock. Indeed, the CAO could be an example of such needed compromise — especially if the drafters seriously heed the criticisms and comments provided during the bill’s review period and consider incorporating certain bipartisan elements of the SRA, like a more streamlined and lower rate tax structure.” Like other cannabis companies, American Cannabis Partners is eyeing the federal back-and-forth with more than interest; federal change could have a significant impact on the industry, which currently operates with state-level approvals but without federal support. Yet nationwide, support for cannabis is growing, with a Gallup poll showing that more than two in three Americans (68%) support legalizing the substance (https://ibn.fm/54DHn). ACP is strengthening its position in the sector, currently operating in two states — California and Michigan — that have passed legislation approving marijuana. With a total of 12 cannabis licenses, including 20,000 square feet of cultivation licenses in California and 540,000 square feet of cultivation licenses along with one retail license in Michigan, ACP is contending for first place in the U.S. cannabis industry by following proven strategies that accelerate the company’s assets, operations, expansions and market share.

• People’s ability to learn and make decisions is limited by ability to recall
• The challenge of recalling what has been read has become more difficult with the advent of the digital word
• With Pluaris, the millennia-old challenge of remembering what has been read has become infinitely easier

Five millennia ago, the human mind somewhat miraculously learned how to “connect scratches on clay tables and symbols in cave paintings with sounds of spoken language — in other words, humans learned to read” (https://ibn.fm/cGQWk). Over last 5,000 years, people have built on this basic skill, as reading is the basis of obtaining knowledge. It is this fact, combined with the recognition that people’s ability to learn and make decisions is limited by the ability to recall, that fueled Nowigence’s Inc. (NOWG) development of Pluaris(TM), an off-the shelf, cloud-based, artificial intelligence (“AI”) platform that automates reading and analysis of textual data. “The act of reading activates a symphony of brain activity, involving not only the visual and auditory systems but neural circuits that build meaning, evoke emotion, and encode memory,” states a “Forge” article. “When you read, your brain does much more than simply comprehend the words in front of you: It enables you to empathize with people you’ve never met, to engage with ideas that challenge and inspire you, to imagine other worlds. That is, if you can remember what you’re reading.” The challenge of recalling what has been read has become more difficult with the advent of the digital word. The article goes on to report that “a 2012 review paper by Ziming Liu, a professor of information science at San Jose State University who studies reading behavior, noted that when we read digital text, as opposed to words on paper, we tend to default to skimming over more careful reading. And as screens occupy an increasingly prominent presence in our lives, this kind of distracted skimming has become the new norm of reading, according to the cognitive neuroscientist Maryanne Wolf, author of ‘Proust and the Squid: The Story and Science of the Reading Brain,’ and ‘Reader, Come Home: The Reading Brain in a Digital World.’ “Based on Wolf’s own research on the neuroscience of reading, she thinks this hurried form of reading is sucking much of the benefit — and pleasure — out of one of humanity’s greatest evolutionary leaps forward,” the article continues. “It also explains why so many people struggle to remember what they’ve read even a few moments afterward, she says.” Nowigence has made this struggle infinitely less difficult with the introduction of Pluaris. The game-changing platform allows users to quickly distill knowledge. Fully customizable, Pluaris allows a user to upload websites, text and files; it even automatically monitors public news sources for identified topics of interest. The platform then gathers all the information together and — here’s where it gets good — provides summaries, extracted intelligence, and graphical analysis. Using Pluaris, readers don’t have to wade through all the information themselves, relying on their flawed human recall to remember everything. Instead, they can scan their news feed for key information, view analyzed content for unbiased importance ranking and identify what’s worth drilling down further, reducing the sheer volume of reading material and increasing resources designed to strengthen and support faulty memory. Nowigence is focused on simplifying the challenges of learning and comprehension. The company is committed to helping individuals, teams and enterprises quickly distill knowledge from massive amounts of textual data, both public and private. By integrating state-of-the-art data processing techniques in an intuitive interface at an affordable subscription price, Pluaris puts the power of data science into the hands of consumers.

• INND set out to enhance balance sheet and capital structure; enters shareholder-friendly financing arrangements
• Company announces cancellation of almost half of its variable convertible notes ($1.1 million), expects to eliminate remainder in several weeks
• INND remains committed to achieving financing terms that support growth and maximize value for our shareholders

InnerScope Hearing Technologies (OTC: INND), an emerging disruptive leader in the direct-to-consumer hearing technology space, announced that it has successfully renegotiated financing agreements with the holder of its securities, GS Capital Partners, LLC, canceling a series of the variable price convertible notes (https://ibn.fm/bxtG2). As a result of the restructuring transactions, the total principal amounting to $1.1 million held by GS Capital Partners has been eliminated, equivalent to almost half of the company’s outstanding variable price convertible notes. InnerScope expects to eliminate the remainder of its current variable price convertible notes in several weeks in a bid to enhance its balance sheet towards a shareholder-friendly capital structure. As an innovative disruptor in the hearing aid space, InnerScope focuses on providing affordable solutions to millions of Americans suffering from hearing loss. It is estimated that one in eight people in the United States aged 12 years or older has some form of hearing loss in both ears, which is equivalent to 30 million people across the nation. But for many of them, the hearing aids are out of reach due to prohibitive costs. Patients are usually required to shell out around $2,500 as most insurance doesn’t cover hearing aids. For high-end devices, these out-of-pocket costs can amount to over $8,000 (https://ibn.fm/xmQ79). That’s where InnerScope stepped up to the challenge, deploying innovative technology to offer consumers a range of affordable hearing health products, including Bluetooth app-controlled rechargeable hearing aids, hearing and tinnitus vitamins, various hearing aid ear cleaning products, and much more. These hearing products are available for purchase online, allowing consumers to save up to 70% of costs compared to traditional brick-and-mortar clinics. In addition, the products are available through different payment plans, including one-off payments and subscriptions through www.iHeardirect.com. Building on the progress achieved last year, when the company made key strategic moves acquiring two direct-to-consumer hearing aid competitors, iHear Medical and HearingAssist, Walmart’s largest supplier of hearing aids to position itself as a leader in the direct-to-consumer hearing aids space, InnerScope appears to remain poised for further growth. Matthew Moore, President, and CEO of InnerScope, commented upon the announcement of the debt restructuring: “InnerScope is pleased to enter into these shareholder-friendly financing arrangements, which enhances our balance sheet and capital structure. We appreciate the support from GS Capital in completing this transaction, as they continue to be a strong financial partner for us. We will work diligently to achieve the most attractive financing terms that support our growth and maximize value for our shareholders,” concluded Mr. Moore.

• StraightUp Resources has optioned or acquired several properties in the historic Red Lake District in Ontario, which has produced over 30 million ounces of gold to date
• The company’s properties in the area include RLX North, RLX South, Belanger, and Ferdinand properties
• Late last year, a senior gold mining company entered into an agreement to acquire Great Bear Resources, one of the success stories of the Red Lake District
• This acquisition, coupled with results from own surveys and the district’s storied history, support StraightUp’s focus in the area

When StraightUp Resources (CSE: ST) (OTCQB: STUPF) optioned mining claims comprising the RLX North, RLX South, and Belanger properties located in the prolific Red Lake District in Ontario, Canada’s Uchi subprovince in 2020, the company expressed optimism at being able to further survey the area and potentially uncover profitable mineralization (https://ibn.fm/V2rf6). In 2021, StraightUp acquired the Ferdinand Gold Property (https://ibn.fm/avBYJ), also located in the Red Lake District, bringing the total of its optioned properties in the area to just under 20,000 hectares. The historic Red Lake District is renowned for having some of the richest gold deposits in the world. According to a report by the Geological Survey of Canada, the Red Lake greenstone belt on which part of the Red Lake mining district sits, had historically produced over 18 million ounces of gold (https://ibn.fm/x8T6q) by the turn of the century. In total, more than 30 million ounces of gold have so far been mined from the area, leading to the successes of gold mining companies like Great Bear Resources. In December last year, Kinross Gold Corporation, a Canadian-based senior gold mining company with mines and projects in North America, South America, Africa, and Russia, entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Great Bear Resources, in a transaction valued at $1.4 billion (other payments may also apply) (https://ibn.fm/ThrE8). Following the acquisition, Kinross would own the Dixie project, one of the most electrifying gold discoveries in the Red Lake mining district, located several kilometers southwest of StraightUp’s properties. Drilling results at the Dixie project have shown the attributes of a prime deposit. This, coupled with the billion-dollar acquisition, reinforce StraightUp’s initial optimism in the Red Lake mining district. In fact, StraightUp’s own ground exploration and heliborne magnetic surveys in the area have evidenced multiple locations of high merit and potential mineralization, including at the Ferdinand project. “We now have confirmation of D2 folding and ultramafic rocks together considered to be a primary control for high-grade gold mineralization in this region, especially the Great Bear Resources Dixie Lake Gold Project. This study represents a transformation of the Ferdinand Gold Project, and we couldn’t be more excited about the road ahead in this unexplored and unappreciated section of the infamous Uchi subprovince,” commented StraightUp President Mr. Mark Brezer as part of the announcement of the interpretation of the Ferdinand property survey data (https://ibn.fm/KXkcg). Similarly, a re-logging and sampling exercise from a 2002 diamond drilling program on the Belanger property revealed multiple areas of mineralization not previously sampled (https://ibn.fm/yczDQ). StraightUp also completed a high-resolution heliborne magnetic survey on its RLX properties in September 2021 (https://ibn.fm/BzOn4). The company intends to combine the interpretation of data from this survey, comprehensive data compilation, and detailed regional structural interpretation to pinpoint the highest priority targets for Orogenic gold occurrences. Last month, StraightUp received an early exploration permit that will help it accomplish some of these objectives (https://ibn.fm/VmKAQ). A public company engaged in the business of exploring and acquiring mineral property assets in North America, StraightUp is keen on maximizing shareholder wealth through mineral discoveries at projects with robust potential. And given the prolific nature of the Red Lake district, where the company has optioned or acquired several properties, StraightUp is indeed working toward this goal.
