• The various opportunity-reducing methods of situational crime prevention look to increase the perceived risks of committing a crime, enhance the effort required to commit crimes, reduce rewards, and eliminate excuses for crime
• Knightscope’s autonomous security robots (“ASRs”), which are equipped with capabilities such as video recording and streaming capabilities, thermal anomaly detection, facial recognition, and more, help to increase the perceived risks associated with criminal activities, resulting in deterrence
• Following the deployment of ASRs, Knightscope’s clients have reported considerable reductions in the number of crimes reported
• Knightscope recently added another client – a New York shopping center – and visited additional towns as part of its Robots Roadshow, with recent touchdowns in Columbus and Akron, Ohio

In a 1998 paper, Marcus Felson and Ronald V. Clarke, then Professors at the Rutgers University School of Criminal Justice in New Jersey, presented the ten principles of crime opportunity theory (https://ibn.fm/uUFqw), one of which guides the operations of Knightscope (NASDAQ: KSCP), an advanced security technology company that builds fully autonomous security robots (“ASR”). The eighth principle states that crime can be prevented by reducing opportunities. And basing their discussion of this principle on situational crime prevention, the academics noted that the opportunity-reducing methods of situational crime prevention, such as using surveillance technologies, controlling access to targeted assets, and more, “aim, (i) to increase the perceived effort of crime, (ii) to increase the perceived risks, (iii) to reduce the anticipated rewards, and (iv) to remove excuses for crime.” Knightscope packages capabilities such as eye-level 360-degree HD video streaming and recording, thermal anomaly detection, license plate recognition, people detection, facial recognition, two-way intercom, the ability to operate round the clock and access ramps (mobile robots), and more into the different models of its ASRs, creating reliable security robots that increase the perceived risks of crime by providing 24/7/365 eye-level mobile surveillance. This surveillance, Knightscope’s website notes, “provides unprecedented deterrence capabilities, increased awareness with a conspicuous physical presence, and high-quality evidence to prosecute criminals.” And through the Knightscope Security Operations Center (“KSOC”) browser-based user interface, security personnel can interact with the robots as well as receive live alerts and access real-time data, which better informs them on how to secure people, infrastructure, and assets within a given location. Since the initial rollout of the company’s mobile outdoor K5 ASR, the mobile indoor K3 ASR, and the stationary indoor K1 ASR in 2015, 2016, and 2017, respectively, Knightscope has emerged as a leader in developing autonomous security capabilities that offer deterrence, detection, and even report incidences of crime. The results have been reductions in crime, with Knightscope’s clients documenting wins such as a 46% drop in crime reports in the City of Huntington Park, Los Angeles County, a reduction in the number of 911 calls originating from a Las Vegas Apartment Complex, and an augmented sense of security within installations and car parks, just to mention a few (https://ibn.fm/pnHiA). And more and more potential clients are taking note of these outcomes. Recently, Knightscope reported it had signed a new contract with the owner of a shopping center located in Yonkers, New York. Under the terms of the agreement, Knightscope will deploy its K5 ASR to protect the center’s parking lots and structures, helping deter common challenges such as catalytic converter theft, criminal mischief, and trespassing, while simultaneously guaranteeing the safety of employees (https://ibn.fm/OxJKc). The latest contract follows on the heels of numerous other deployments reported last month. On April 28, for example, the company received a subscription-based order to deploy 2 K5 ASR and 1 K1 ASR with a San Francisco Bay Area biotech real estate development (https://ibn.fm/Yw1ax). This announcement came a few days after Knightscope separately celebrated deployments with two new clients that have each operated for a century or more; the first, a centuries-old consumer food manufacturer and Fortune 500 company (https://ibn.fm/gEni0). The second is a 100-year-old, 4th generation recycling center (https://ibn.fm/PMGiC). Still, Knightscope is looking to further advance its market expansion by boosting the market’s awareness of its offerings through its Robot Roadshow. An engaging experiential event aimed at grabbing attention, building direct connections with potential clients, and sparking conversations, the Robot Roadshow has so far made 38 landings in 14 states and Washington D.C., with its most recent touchdowns being in Columbus, Ohio, on May 4 (https://ibn.fm/fIc1U), and Akron, Ohio on May 5 (https://ibn.fm/0gt5E).

• GMGI white labels turnkey online casino, sportsbook, and live gaming content solutions complete with a single wallet for players for both desktop and mobile applications
• Y-o-Y revenue soared 355% to $8.88 million in Q1 fiscal 2022 with 500+ different casino brands and over 6 million players supporting GMGI’s 14th straight profitable quarter
• Golden Matrix recently acquired R Kings Competition, a leading competitions platform that generated more than $29 million in revenue and net income above $2.4 million in the recent year

With online wagering becoming increasingly popular – and legalized in 18 U.S. states so far since PAPSA was overturned in 2018 – the race is always on to capture users. Odds are that most people have seen an advertisement offering lucrative incentives trying to lure bettors to a particular platform. In the world of B2C (business-to-consumer) gaming, there is a fine balance that needs to be struck between user acquisition expense and revenue per user, an equilibrium that most digital platforms fail to maintain. Gaming companies don’t mind giving out $100, $200, $300 to a new user under the contention that they will get much more back in the long run. Thing is, it’s not that simple and many gaming companies struggle to ever reach profitability due to customer acquisition costs outweighing revenue generation. “It sounds like it’s a secret recipe of some sort. It’s a real basic situation, in [B2C] gaming, it depends on how much it costs you to acquire players and, in the longer term, how much you can generate from those players,” explained Brian Goodman, CEO of online gaming platform developer and licensor Golden Matrix Group (NASDAQ: GMGI), in an interview in January with Zingernation. Golden Matrix historically has been focused on business-to-business (“B2B”) operations, providing online gaming companies with the tools they need to improve profits and reduce churn, industry nomenclature for losing players. Golden Matrix IP includes its flagship GM-X System and its recently released next-gen GM-Ag System that is regarded as the industry benchmark delivering access to 10,000+ games from more than 25 game providers. The white label platform offers turnkey online casino, sportsbook, and live gaming content solutions complete with a single wallet for players for both desktop and mobile applications. Most of Golden Matrix’s business comes from Asia Pacific, but management is looking to expand closer to home. In March, the company applied for a Mexican gaming license. Today, more than 500 different casino brands and over 6 million players use the GM-X System. If there is a secret sauce, it is the wide array of games offered by Golden Matrix in combination with aggregating and managing data. GMGI technology helps gaming companies better understand their players – skill level, what they like to play and for how long, etc. – with analytics tools that are critical to reducing churn and costs while generating additional revenue. The growing client list translates directly to Golden Matrix’s top and bottom lines. During the first quarter of fiscal 2022 (ended 1/31/2022), GMGI posted record revenue of $8.88 million, up 355% from $1.95 million a year earlier, and net profit of $349,379, up from $52,158 in Q1 2021. In a market where finding profitability is somewhat scarce, Golden Matrix boast a string of 14 consecutive profitable quarters. The Las Vegas-based company recently made its foray into the B2C market, acquiring 80% of U.K.-based R Kings Competitions Ltd., one of Ireland’s and England’s leading independent online competition companies, with an option for the remaining 20%. During 2020 and 2021 R Kings awarded total prizes valued at more than $54 million, comprised of residential properties, luxury and exotic motor vehicles, holiday packages, technology packages and cash. Current competitions at R Kings today include those ranging from drones to a BMW 320D M Sport. With the acquisition, Golden Matrix took majority ownership of a company approximately twice its size. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2021, R Kings generated more than $29 million in revenue and net income above $2.4 million. They also acquired nearly half a million social media followers and 25,000+ active monthly clients. As Goodman told Zingernation, the economics of R Kings B2C model are ideal for scaling. The company spends less than a pound to acquire a player and generates north of 20 pounds from each one. Metrics like that means R Kings can favorably keep buying users. The R Kings platform is being optimized by integrating GMGI technologies where appropriate. Goodman added that his company is on the hunt for additional positive cashflow companies that could be immediately accretive and complementary to its core technologies.

• Correlate Infrastructure Partners has begun construction of a 908-kW rooftop solar project at Continental Envelope headquarters in Geneva, Illinois
• Once completed, it will power approximately 20-25% of the facility’s overall energy needs, and be one of the state’s biggest rooftop solar facilities
• Correlate’s management believes that this project is a demonstration of its commitment to designing and building customer-centric energy solutions for companies across various industries
• It also believes that it is a good example of how sustainable a large-scale industry such as printing can be when applying the best technology

On April 28, 2022, Correlate Infrastructure Partners (OTCQB: CIPI) announced its partnership with Continental Envelope to set up a 908-kW rooftop solar project at its headquarters in Geneva, Illinois. On May 5, the company announced that final engineering, permitting, and interconnection work had begun in what will be one of Illinois’ largest rooftop solar power facilities (https://ibn.fm/TJ5Q1). “Correlate Infrastructure Partners loves supporting ESG-focused businesses that are making a true difference in their industries and communities,” noted Todd Michaels, Correlate’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). “This attractive project makes clear that sustainability and profitability are no longer at odds. This is a call to action, Chicagoland!” he added. Continental Envelope produces over 2 billion envelopes per year, making it one of the leading independent manufacturers of commercial envelopes since the 1930s. Some of its clients include but are not limited to Netflix, Capital One, AT&T, and American Express. The move towards clean energy shows the company’s commitment to making the planet greener and complements its “Pushing the Envelope” Community Gardens surrounding its Illinois property. This solar project is scheduled for completion by Q3 2022, and once done, it will power approximately 20-25% of the facility’s overall energy needs. It is further estimated that over the next 20 years, this project will help offset around 18,849 tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, an amount equivalent to planting 282,000 trees or 42 million car miles driven. “This solution for Continental Envelope is a demonstration of Correlate’s commitment to designing and building customer-centric energy solutions that not only deliver profitable sustainability but create great jobs and visibility in the local community,” noted Jason Loyet, the director of Commercial Solar for Correlate. Correlate’s management is confident that this project proves that this kind of energy forward-thinking applies to manufacturing businesses of all kinds and sizes worldwide. It is also optimistic that, with Continental Envelope’s adoption of this green energy solution, the bar has been set to define sustainable businesses and other health programs designed to achieve net-zero carbon. “We are grateful to partner with this innovative family business that shows the printing industry can be more efficient and renewable without compromising reliability or profitability,” reckoned Mr. Michaels.

• More than a dozen California cities are opening new recreational cannabis licensing opportunities this year, article reports
• SGMD has established a pattern of growth through the years, investing in a number of subsidiaries with active operations in the California cannabis sector
• Company also completed the acquisition of Lemon Glow and its assets, interests, property and rights

The cannabis space appears set for growth in California, according to an MJBizDaily report (https://ibn.fm/aKmrF). The potential growth bodes well for Sugarmade (OTC: SGMD), an emerging leader in the sector that is “More than a dozen California cities are opening new recreational cannabis licensing opportunities this year, either by embracing the legal marijuana industry for the first time or by increasing the number of available business permits,” the MJBizDaily article reported. “Several other cities, meanwhile, are laying the groundwork for new markets down the road by drafting and/or developing cannabis ordinances. The rollout of new adult-use markets and business opportunities come as cities across the state are eager to bring in additional tax revenue after the pandemic and other factors depleted public coffers. “The ongoing shift is a welcome sign for the state’s struggling marijuana sector, which remains forbidden in the vast majority of California cities and, at the same time, must compete against a thriving illicit market,” the article continued. “The retail expansion is far and wide, from urban centers in San Diego and San Jose to small towns such as Madera in the Central Valley and Oxnard along the southern California coast.” Sugarmade is working to position itself establish in the growing California cannabis delivery marketplace. The company has established a pattern of growth through the years, investing in a number of subsidiaries with active operations in the California cannabis sector. The company’s portfolio brands include Nug Avenue, SugarRush and Lemon Glow. Sugarmade owns a 70% stake in NUG Avenue, a cannabis delivery service based in southern California. The service offers hand-selected, top-shelf products from Stiiizy, Kanha, PlugPlay, BigChief and others. The cannabis delivery service that covers same-day service of a variety of products, including flower, pre-rolls, vapes, extracts, edibles, concentrates and capsules. The service covers delivery in Los Angeles County, Orange County, San Bernardino County and Riverside County. In addition, last year Sugarmade completed the acquisition of Lemon Glow and its assets, interests, property and rights (https://ibn.fm/8l1xt). “We are setting the stage to improve margins while expanding end-market access, and to grow, refine, produce, distribute in the largest and fastest-growing cannabis market on the planet,” said Sugarmade CEO Jimmy Chan. The acquisition was designed to position the company to achieve that objective with a significant capacity to scale as demand for California-grown cannabis is expected to grow when federal legalization takes place. Sugarmade believes these significant changes in the marketplace create an opportunity to invoke a new short-term strategy while the company’s long-term plans to cultivate at its new Lemon Glow facility are developing. In May of last year, Sugarmade closed on the acquisition of Lemon Glow Company and announced plans to acquire the necessary approvals and permits to cultivate up to 32 acres of the 640-acre property. Sugarmade is also working to obtain a conditional use permit number from the community development department of the county of Lake, California, which the company believes is an important step toward gaining the full conditional use permit that will allow cannabis cultivation on the property. In addition, for the 2022 cannabis cultivation season, Sugarmade is embarking on a new and bold strategy to enter into contract cultivation arrangements with local Lake County, California, cultivators that have decided not to engage in their own cultivation efforts this year. These operators have already made significant investments in infrastructure and have highly specialized personnel available that SGMD can utilize on a contract basis for production of cannabis. The company observed that, by contracting with the owners of these already available resources, it will gain immediate access to the marketplace based on an advantageous cost model that will place the company on par or, in some cases, at a superior cost position, when compared to many of the larger cannabis cultivation and distribution companies in the industry. Sugarmade officials are in negotiations with several local permitted and licensed operators that are agreeable to a partnership arrangement with Sugarmade to manage operations for cannabis cultivation. Officials are also in active negotiations on the distribution side of the business that will allow Sugarmade to bring this cultivated cannabis to the marketplace. Invoking this dynamic short-term strategy, while continuing to develop the company’s longer-term strategy to fully develop the large Lemon Glow property for cultivation, will allow Sugarmade to significantly advance the timeframe for gaining market share in this industry based on a cost model that will allow the company to produce strong margins this cultivation season.

• Tackling climate change opens up potentially compelling opportunities for growth for businesses driven by ESG values such as EverGen
• Company is eyeing growth opportunities – both nationally and internationally – as RNG gathers steam in the world’s bid to combat climate threat
• EverGen aims to unite social and environmental responsibility with market success; reports quarterly and annual financial results, announces plans to expand project pipeline

EverGen Infrastructure (TSX.V: EVGN) (OTCQB: EVGIF), an established independent renewable natural gas producer based in Canada, appears ready for rapid growth as the Company seeks opportunities to expand its market presence amid the strong global push for slashing the carbon footprint across the world. The Company recently reported financial results as at and for the three-month period and year ended December 31, 2021, highlighting important milestones achieved during the past year (https://ibn.fm/F40E0). As the climate threat becomes one of the most pressing challenges of this generation and many more to come, decarbonization of the economy becomes a crucial element of the climate change solution. The goal of greenhouse emission cuts is to slow the pace of the world’s progression toward a dangerous temperature level beyond which climate impacts could be more severe and pervasive, resulting in floods, droughts, and extreme heatwaves. Renewable natural gas (“RNG”) offers an alternative energy source generated from processing feedstocks such as animal and food waste as well as crops and crop residue. RNG solves a number of pressing environmental problems, from reducing carbon emissions to responsible waste disposal. With the Environmental, Social, and Governance (“ESG”) values deeply ingrained in the company’s business model, EverGen aims to connect social and environmental responsibility with commercial success. In 2021, EverGen generated CAD 9.6 million of revenues and CAD 2.8 million of adjusted EBITDA, in line with expectations. In addition, the Company had its public market debut during the past year. After the initial public offering in August 2021, EverGen has maintained its strong cash position, reporting cash and cash equivalents of CAD 19.6 million, restricted cash of CAD 2.7 million and a working capital surplus of CAD20.9 million as of December 31, 2021, which gives the Company a unique opportunity to execute on existing and forthcoming growth projects. The year 2021 was transformational for EverGen. It was the year when the Company laid the foundation for growth, poised to assume a leading position in the RNG infrastructure space in time to come. As a company focused on acquiring, developing, and operating a portfolio of renewable natural gas, waste to energy, and related infrastructure projects, EverGen remains committed to delivering strong shareholder returns in 2022 and beyond by leveraging a number of competitive advantages, including the established platform as the first mover in Canada, recently enhanced management team, growing project pipeline and diversified access to capital. As one of the key players in the Canadian RNG space, EverGen boasts an expanding project pipeline and ample acquisition opportunities. The Company believes that the Canadian RNG industry is ready for consolidation, offering compelling opportunities for growth through acquisition. The management team is evaluating several projects across the country in a bid to replicate what has been successful with its existing assets. In line with these efforts is the Company’s recently announced letter of intent to acquire a 67% interest in GrowTec, an Alberta-based biogas facility. This acquisition opportunity appears to be one of many EverGen intends to pursue across its domestic market, investing in genuinely sustainable operations that contribute to carbon-negative energy production and positively impact climate change initiatives. Furthermore, this Vancouver-based renewable energy producer appears to be on the path to competing on the global RNG stage as it eyes opportunities for continued growth internationally, across North America and more. To deliver on these ambitious targets, EverGen has further fortified its management team, attracting talent from across the RNG and waste management industries to support the Company in its efforts to scale the business. The team of leaders inspired by values of sustainable growth has established the company as a reliable RNG infrastructure platform that can contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Committed to being part of the circular economy and combating climate change toward a carbon-free future, EverGen is driven by ESG goals beyond environmental. Not only is it tackling the climate threat by producing renewable natural gas, but it also appears unequivocally committed to making a meaningful impact in the communities where it operates, helping them contribute to a sustainable future. The Company boasts a long-term partnership with First Nations and municipalities across BC that is designed to contribute to their economic and social upliftment by employing their talent and supporting social, cultural, and recreational programs targeted at these communities.

• SPYR Inc. is a Texas-based company dedicated to delivering quality in-demand Internet of Things (“IoT”) products for smart home and auto consumers of Apple products
• The company’s flagship products are developed by subsidiary Applied Magix, which also sources white label Apple HomeKit(TM) products and accessories
• SPYR recently announced evaluation of potential expansion into Mexico, Central Europe and Thailand to extend its global reach beyond its U.S. operations and its representative office in Hong Kong
• The company is also sharply discounting many of its products in a summer sale as it prepares to develop new upgraded versions
• SPYR has also announced that the company is working to develop new Car Play-compatible products

Apple-compatible product developer SPYR (OTCQB: SPYR) is examining opportunities to expand its reach to Latin America, Central Europe and Thailand to grant its smart home and connected car market products a global scale. The Internet of Things (“IoT”) developer already has a representative office in Hong Kong for potential supply of its Apple ecosystem tie-in solutions, which include chargers, adapters and data blockers produced under subsidiary Applied Magix as the source of white label Apple HomeKit(TM) products and accessories, as well as own-brand products. “These are markets that need to be considered for future expansion and we may as well start investigating a foundation now, with an eye towards the future,” SPYR CEO Tim Matula stated (https://ibn.fm/YwuZ4). “Applied Magix’ research and investigative efforts in this direction will help SPYR gain a worldwide footprint and potentially reach many more customers.” The company has been working to increase shareholder value through a number of product upgrades, sales and marketing efforts. “We are constantly upgrading our product pipeline, and our efforts to streamline our inventory benefit our tech-enthusiastic customers by making aggressive discounts available to them during our Summer Sales events,” Applied Magix CEO Harald Zink stated while announcing discounts of more than 50 percent on some of the company’s products in order to move them out ahead of expected improved versions (https://ibn.fm/gZFFT). “As we will continue to support all of our products, our existing customers are protected, as we do not orphan any of our products,” he added. The company announced the launch of its new development initiative to upgrade MagixDrive, the flagship product that is a wireless adapter between iPhones and vehicle CarPlay infotainment systems, in an April 21 news release that also indicated the company is preparing to develop other Car Play products. “Following the success of our MagixDrive Wireless CarPlay adapter, we are now really excited to hint at the next evolution of it, as we’ve listened to customer feedback and are looking at adding new features to this project,” Zink stated (https://ibn.fm/3Z6kd). SPYR is targeting what it regards as a significant market opportunity in creating smart hardware and software solutions exclusively for Apple customers. The company regards Apple customers as a group of consumers willing to pay for the privilege of getting higher quality out of their products, and it notes that there is a dearth of smart devices designed to properly integrate with Apple’s HomeKit. SPYR has also reported that it is evaluating the possibility of acquiring a developer of proprietary lighting technologies for the transportation and industrial industries, and the developer of a proprietary web-based software-hardware package used for asset tracking and management by the construction, agriculture, police and energy industries, among others (https://ibn.fm/ZcWtA).

Ketamine shows promise in treating Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease as well as depression, suicide ideation and more In 2021, Silo Pharma (OTCQB: SILO) entered into a joint venture with Zylö Therapeutics to “explore the clinical development of ketamine using ZTI’s Z-pod (transdermal) technology.” This innovative technology allows Silo, an early-stage biopharmaceutical company, to develop a ketamine delivery system for those suffering dysphagia, a difficulty or complete inability to swallow.(1) Silo Pharma is exploring the efficacy of ketamine in treating patients suffering from both Alzheimer’s Disease (“AD”) and Parkinson’s Disease (“PD”). Over 80% of PD patients(2) and 75% of AD patients(3) experience dysphagia. According to Dr. Jay Blankenship, Zylö Therapeutics V.P. of Business Development, “ketamine is an incredibly versatile drug that continues to show promise with new therapeutic indications.”  Eric Weisblum, CEO of Silo Pharma believes “the ability to deliver ketamine (through the skin) in a time-released manner will allow us to explore both the safety and efficacy of our therapeutics … We believe that Zylo’s patented technology will allow us to reach potential patients that suffer with dysphagia.” Currently, ketamine is administered intravenously, via bone tissue (intraosseous), intramuscularly, orally or intranasally (through the nose), methods that are impractical, painful and sometimes subject to nausea.(4) Ketamine has been available for over “half a century … first synthesized in 1962 by Calvin Stevens at Parke-Davis Co (now Pfizer) as an alternative anesthetic to phencyclidine.” Ketamine facilitates “hypnotic (sleep-producing), analgesic (pain-relieving) and amnesic (short-term memory loss) effects; no other drug used in clinical practice produces these three important effects at the same time. Ketamine is a standard in operating rooms. Due to its “bronchial dilatory profile,” ketamine is the safer choice for patients with “asthma and life-threatening acute bronchial constriction,” and is “preferred in patients with unstable hemodynamics (blood flow). Ketamine is also one of the very few drugs approved for anesthesia induction in caesarean sections. It is considered the agent of choice in children and burn victims.” () Novel ketamine uses show promise in treating PD-related depression as well as dyskinesia, resulting from the side effects of levodopa treatments. Dyskinesia includes involuntary, erratic, writhing movements of the face, arms, legs, and/or trunk. “Recent clinical findings suggest that ketamine may provide neuroprotection and reduce neuropsychiatric symptoms associated with AD.”() Neuropsychiatric symptoms include agitation, depression, apathy, delusions, hallucinations, and sleep impairment. Ketamine has also been studied to battle suicide ideation, as well as “eating disorders, problematic substance use, post-traumatic stress and anxiety…”() In October 2021, Silo entered into a sponsored research agreement with Columbia University incorporating the work of Dr. Christine Ann Denny. According to a Silo Pharma news release, “Dr. Denny’s pioneering research into whether ketamine … may improve memory retrieval, halt, or even reverse, the process of Alzheimer’s disease-related to memory loss or cognitive aging, could have life-altering implications for people suffering with everything from Alzheimer’s disease to post-traumatic stress disorder (‘PTSD’).” Weisblum said, “to be able to bring hope and possibly a therapeutic to patients suffering from Alzheimer’s disease (and potentially other ailments) is an exciting proposition for Silo Pharma. The unique compounds being developed at Columbia have shown great promise, and we look forward to continuing to explore and develop these therapeutics.” Illustration courtesy of Zylö Therapeutics.
