• Bebuzee is a leading social media and digital entertainment platform dedicated to providing innovative and engaging experiences for its users
• The company recently launched its “super app”, set to redefine the digital landscape by combining multiple services into a single intuitive platform
• As part of Bebuzee’s commitment of catering to the ever-evolving needs of modern social media users, the company has now launched two groundbreaking live streaming features in its super app
• The features include a TikTok-style live streaming offering that allows users to broadcast short, engaging live videos to their followers in real time, and a YouTube-style live streaming feature that supports longer live broadcasts
• The rollout of live streaming features marks a significant milestone in Bebuzee’s journey to transform the digital entertainment landscape

The Digital 2024: Global Overview Report, published by DataReportal in partnership with We Are Social and Meltwater, revealed that 22.7% of social media users aged 16 to 64 cite watching live streams as their main reason for using social media platforms (https://ibn.fm/OvEUD). This was a marginal decrease from the 23.7% recorded in the Digital 2023: Global Overview Report (https://ibn.fm/I4aVA).

Interestingly, for the second year running, watching live streams outranked reasons such as making new contacts, seeing content from users’ favorite brands, watching or following sports, networking or research, following celebrities or influencers, and posting life updates. This relatively high interest in live streaming among social media users has not gone unnoticed, with social media companies introducing live streaming features to keep users on their platforms longer and satisfy the needs of users who love watching live streams.

One such company is Bebuzee (OTC: BBUZ), a leading social media and digital entertainment platform dedicated to providing innovative and engaging experiences for its users. Bebuzee recently launched two groundbreaking live streaming features in its revolutionary super app: a live streaming feature that supports short live broadcasts and another that supports longer, more in-depth live broadcasts (https://ibn.fm/kLR9L).

Bebuzee’s new live streaming features offer unique and captivating experiences, similar to content users on TikTok and YouTube share. According to the company, these new features are designed to enhance user engagement and transform the digital experience for millions of users of its super app. They are also expected to redefine how users experiment with content and connect with their favorite creators and communities.

The company’s first live streaming feature has been implemented in a format that resembles TikTok’s implementation. It allows users to broadcast short, engaging live videos to their followers in real time. Bebuzee notes that this TikTok-style feature is ideal for live interactions like Q&A sessions, spontaneous content such as behind-the-scenes showcases, viral moments, and creative performances.

The second live streaming feature, which Bebuzee has designed to complement its TikTok-style live streaming offering, embraces YouTube’s approach to live streams. It supports longer, more in-depth live broadcasts, making it perfect for creators who want to showcase any extended content that requires a more detailed and immersive approach. This YouTube-style feature is also ideal for creators who want to host live shows, tutorials, or webinars. It includes live chats that enable viewers to engage with the content in real time and interact with the creators by participating in polls and Q&A sessions.

“We are incredibly excited to launch these new live streaming features,” commented Joe Onyero, CEO of Bebuzee. “By incorporating TikTok- and YouTube-style live streaming into our super app, we are providing our users with powerful tools to connect, create, and engage like never before. This is a significant milestone in our journey to transform the digital entertainment landscape and offer a truly unique and immersive experience for our community.”

Launched last month, the Bebuzee super app is set to redefine the digital landscape by combining multiple services into a single intuitive platform. At the time of its launch, the super app offered a host of unrivaled features that merge entertainment, e-commerce, and communication. The comprehensive suite of features was – and still is – part of Bebuzee’s goal to cater to the ever-evolving needs of modern users (https://ibn.fm/prjKk).

As a testament to its continued commitment to cater to these needs, the company completed the integration of the two live streaming features, which expands the all-in-one app’s capabilities even further. As a result, Bebuzee’s super app now combines the best of live content, entertainment, and live content. The super app’s suite of features enhances user engagement and opens new pathways to content monetization, advertising opportunities, and community building.

• The International Energy Agency forecasts nickel demand to nearly double by 2050 due EV deployment
• Fathom Nickel is developing two high-grade nickel projects in Canada’s prolific Trans Hudson Corridor, with recent results from Gochager Lake providing evidence of widespread mineralization
• Fathom has yet to find the source of the semi-massive to massive sulphide veins at Gochager Lake, a project that Quinton Hennigh of Crescat Capital has the potential to be an economical underground mine

Geologists have a fascinating way of speaking. They use terms like “gabbro” and “interstitial disseminated magmatic pyrrhotite” to describe rocks, and their discussions can delve into great details about ore deposits. But when a geologist gets truly excited about a discovery, like Ian Fraser, P.Geo., CEO and VP Exploration at Fathom Nickel (CSE: FNI) (FSE: 6Q5) (OTCQB: FNICF), the enthusiasm can be contagious.

Fathom is an emerging exploration company targeting magmatic nickel sulphide discoveries to support the rapidly growing global electric vehicle market as the world transitions to full electrification. Nickel prices have been volatile in recent years but are maintaining a long-term uptrend over the last decade. After slipping to about $15,600 per tonne in February, nickel prices have climbed back over $18,000 a tonne, as the conversation about Net Zero Emissions by 2050 is growing louder.

The International Energy Agency sees nickel demand nearly doubling by 2050, driven by rapid deployment of EV batteries.

Fathom’s portfolio includes two high-quality exploration projects located in the prolific Trans Hudson Corridor in Saskatchewan:

• Albert Lake Project, a 90,000+ hectare project that was host to the historic and past producing Rottenstone deposit (produced high-grade Ni-Cu+PGE, 1965-1969)
• Gochager Lake Project, a 22,000+ hectare project that is host to a historic, NI43-101 non-compliant open pit resource consisting of 4.3M tons at 0.295% Ni and 0.081% Cu

Fathom began its exploration efforts at Gochager Lake last year. The company recently released results of the Q1/Q2-24 seven drillhole, 2,656 meter drill program at the project that, in Fraser’s words, is showing that historic drilling, while pointing to significant resource potential, “missed some of the very, very good mineralization we are encountering.”

Some of the latest intercepts reached grades upwards of 2.0% nickel and 3.0% nickel equivalent. To put that in perspective, consider that all nickel ore has relatively low nickel content. As such, the industry ranks high-grade nickel ore as that with nickel content above 1.8%. Nickel sulphides, which are facing a supply deficit due to declining discoveries, are preferred for EVs as they are less expensive to process into battery material.

That bolsters the value of each meter of high-grade sulphide drilled by Fathom. And the company is only now beginning to realize the breadth of the nickel mineralization at Gochager Lake. “We are starting to recognize some of the scripters that are pretty consistent with other known magmatic nickel sulphide deposits around the world,” said Fraser.

Respected industry analyst geo Quinton Hennigh of Crescat Capital echoes Fraser’s sentiment. In a recent podcast, Hennigh opined on the strong results and how Fathom continues to hit high grades in every anomaly they locate through electromagnetic borehole surveys.

Within the broad gabbro (rock that forms when magma cools slowly deep underground and generates magnetic nickel deposits), Fathom is seeing semi-massive to massive sulphides that are vein-like in structure, a hallmark of a high-grade nickel deposit. The veins are effectively the final part of the event that formed the deposit, meaning that following them should be the roadmap to the source that Fathom has not yet discovered.

To date, Fathom has completed 16 drillholes totaling 5,543 meters. The exploration has defined a mineralized gabbro unit over a northeast-southwest strike of approximately 300 meters and a vertical extent exceeding 400 meters and remains open in all directions. Looking ahead at the next phase of drilling, the evidence is pointing to a larger intrusive that Fraser suspects to contain 2%-3% nickel. The key is continuing to expand the size of the deposit. If Hennigh is right, Fathom could be sitting on the makings of what could be an economical underground nickel mine.

• Ontario, Canada-based Tartisan Nickel Corp. is developing a number of mining exploration projects that will provide resources for the electric vehicle and hybrid automobile battery market
• Tartisan recently announced the acquisition of additional land to increase the size of its flagship project in Ontario’s Kenora Mining Division to 4,273 hectares (more than 10,500 acres)
• Tartisan owns two other exploration projects in Ontario and one in central Peru
• The company is dedicated to responsible social and environmental stewardship as nickel mining’s chain of custody comes under a growing degree of public and investor scrutiny

In spite of the challenges that naturally accompany any foundational shift in a major industry, such as the introduction of EV technology to world transportation, it’s clear that the still developing EV industry is here to stay. Problems will be addressed, infrastructure will be created, and the material and technological demands of the sector will continue to grow.

Canadian mineral and battery metals explorer Tartisan Nickel (CSE: TN) (OTCQB: TTSRF) is confident of this long-term growth. Market forecasts anticipate EV sales jumping from 18 percent of global passenger vehicle sales last year to 45 percent by the end of the decade, and 73 percent by 2040, according to the Los Angeles Times (https://ibn.fm/yROn1).

The company announced last month that it is expanding the size of its flagship Kenbridge Nickel Project exploration site in northwestern Ontario, Canada’s Kenora Mining Division, near the town of Kenora.

The Kenbridge Nickel Deposit hosts a Nickel-Copper Resource with a 622-meter shaft, and the expanded project sits on 4,273 hectares (more than 10,500 acres) that includes 93 contiguous patents and 153 single cell mining claims 100 percent owned by Tartisan Nickel Corp. through wholly owned subsidiaries.

A prior baseline study and a new baseline study collecting aquatic and terrestrial data this year, along with species at risk surveys in compliance with Ontario’s Endangered Species Act, will be used to develop baseline environmental reports to ensure provincial and federal regulations are met for the approval and permitting processes dealing with advanced metals exploration and eventual mine development.

“In addition to excellent field skills in all seasons and environments, (biologist Lindsay Spenceley  leading the baseline study field work) has considerable project management skills,” Tartisan CEO Mark Appleby stated in the Kenbridge Nickel expansion announcement (https://ibn.fm/297lQ). “Aspen Biological can leverage its network of experienced resource professionals to pull together, as needed, multi-disciplinary teams to deliver upon project requirements and timelines in a cost- effective manner.”

Tartisan has additional exploration projects in Ontario — the 5,440-acre (2201-hectare) Turtle Pond Nickel Copper Project and 2,850-acre (1,153-hectare) Sill Lake Lead Silver Project — and the Don Pancho Manganese Silver Zinc Project in central Peru.

“Our high-grade Kenbridge Nickel Project is essential for lithium-ion batteries and electric vehicles, and is positioned for substantial growth,” a recent SmallCapPower feature on the company states (https://ibn.fm/vxRxm). “And Tartisan’s strategic focus is not just on mining, but on advancing nickel deposits responsibly. We’re aligned with Treaty 3 First Nations ensuring our operations respect both the land and its original stewards.”

Tartisan’s responsible practices position it as a visionary leader in the market as the environmental and social impacts of nickel mining increasingly raise concerns among investors and the general public. The European Union will require battery “passports” for all EVs by 2027, showing verified data regarding battery metals’ raw materials and their chain of custody from mine to market. Volvo announced earlier this month that such concerns led it to introduce its own battery passport with the necessary data (https://ibn.fm/PrBoL).

• Humans are biologically hardwired to crave high-calorie foods at night. Those high-sugar, high-fat options are understood to be unhealthy, and they can also directly impair sleep quality
• NGTF provides sleep-friendly options for nighttime snacking, with snacks formulated by sleep and nutrition experts specifically for snacking in the hours before bed
• Nightfood cookies contain prebiotic fiber for gut health, inositol for anxiety reduction and improved sleep, gluten-free oat flour for easy digestion, and vitamin B6 for melatonin synthesis, mood and sleep regulation
• Other key ingredients include allulose and monk fruit for great taste without blood sugar spikes plus slow-digesting micellar casein protein for satiety and blood sugar support

Humans are biologically hardwired to crave high-calorie, sweet, and high-fat foods in the evening. At night, appetite peaks, cravings spike, and willpower drops.

This perfect storm results in over 90% of Americans snacking regularly at night, with the average adult snacking before bed 3.9 nights per week.

The result is over one billion snacks consumed in the US before bed every single week, with an estimated consumer spend of over $60 billion annually.

These hardwired cravings are an outdated survival mechanism to store fuel before the long nighttime fast and uncertainties of the coming day to ensure survival. So, it makes sense that the most popular nighttime snacks are the most calorie dense: cookies, chips, candy, and ice cream.  Unfortunately, these are not only generally unhealthy, but they can directly disrupt and impair sleep quality.

Nightfood Holdings (OTCQB: NGTF) provides sleep-friendly choices through products developed by sleep and nutrition experts, specifically formulated for nighttime cravings and the nighttime snack occasion. Formulated with better sleep-in mind, Nightfood is revolutionizing how people snack at night, allowing them to satisfy their cravings while minimizing guilt and nutritionally supporting better sleep.

NGTF’s cookies contain prebiotic fiber, which supports gut health by nourishing beneficial gut bacteria, leading to improved digestion and immune function. Inositol, another key ingredient, has been linked to reduced anxiety and improved sleep quality, helping consumers unwind before bed. Gluten-free oat flour is higher in melatonin and tryptophan than traditional flours and is lower glycemic. Vitamin B6 plays a crucial role in serotonin and melatonin production, essential neurotransmitters involved in regulating mood and sleep-wake cycles.

Other key ingredients include Allulose and monk fruit – natural sweeteners that deliver great taste without causing blood sugar spikes that can kill sleep quality. The cookies also contain slow-digesting micellar casein protein that provides a sustained release of amino acids to support muscle repair and satiety throughout the night.

The company recently reported early signs of success in their recent launch of direct-to-consumer sales of Nightfood sleep-friendly cookies, announcing over $50,000 in unaudited net revenue during the 30 days from April 21 through May 20, 2024.

Nightfood Holdings is pioneering a new category of “sleep-friendly nighttime snacking,” which Management believes has the potential to reach billions of dollars in consumer spend.

• Astiva’s activity centers are designed to be a hub for seniors, providing a space for health education, wellness activities and community building

As a record number of people become seniors and enter the season of their lives when quality health care becomes increasingly important, Astiva Health is expanding its services and offering healthcare solutions precisely targeted at this growing demographic. A fast-growing Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug (“MAPD”) health plan, Astiva Health is dedicated to reshaping personalized and comprehensive healthcare. Symbolic of that commitment is the company’s grand opening of its newest facility, the Los Angeles-Koreatown Activity Center (https://ibn.fm/7JMA8).

“The United States is undergoing a demographic and health transformation that will have profound implications for its healthcare system and society,” a recent “NPG Aging” article stated (https://ibn.fm/pQKWt). “The population is aging at an unprecedented rate, with the baby boomer generation, defined as those born between 1946 and 1964, reaching retirement age and living longer than ever before.

“According to the U.S. Census Bureau, by 2030, all baby boomers will be older than 65, leading to about one in every five residents being retirement age,” the article continued. “This shift poses a dual challenge for the healthcare system: how to meet the increasing and complex healthcare needs of the elderly, and how to ensure that the system is prepared and equipped to provide quality and equitable care for this growing segment of the population.”

As part of the solution to these challenges, Astiva Health operates a growing number of activity centers. The centers are designed to be a hub for seniors, providing a space for health education, wellness activities and community building. Each center reflects Astiva Health’s dedication to delivering culturally tailored healthcare and providing services that cater to the unique needs of the communities Astiva serves.

The company opened its Los Angeles-Koreatown Activity Center in December; it also has centers in San Diego, Westminster and Monterery Park.

“We are thrilled to open the doors of the Los Angeles-Koreatown Activity Center,” said Astiva Health CEO Dr. Tri T. Nguyen. “It’s more than just a place — it’s a testament to our mission of empowering seniors to lead active, fulfilling lives.”

These activity centers are only one example of how Astiva Health is actively addressing the growing needs for older individuals, particularly those in ethnic communities. The company is focused on integrating cultural respect into its healthcare model and establishing a new standard for responsive and respectful care. 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.

Astiva Health prioritizes a culturally responsive approach to healthcare, offering multilingual solutions for customer service, marketing materials and educational resources. The company’s dedication to serving the underserved population is not only fulfilling a critical societal need but also positioning it 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.

By combining various applications under one umbrella, Bebuzee’s super-app helps users simplify daily tasks and reduces the need to download numerous applications to accomplish tasks through a computer platform.

Similar products have become popular not only in Asia, but in Africa and parts of Latin America as well. But thus far the super-app has not found a home in the United States or Europe, and the Miami-based company expects to take advantage of the lack of competition to build super-app success in North America and Europe.

Market growth will be driven by increasingly rapid lifestyles. The company anticipates monetizing its products through advertising revenue, premium account subscriptions and premium listing options.

During remote lifestyle conditions made necessary by the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and a lack of effective medical options initially, Bebuzee’s user base surged by 78 percent with over 42 million new users, according to the company (https://ibn.fm/Jz7cv).

“We are on the brink of launching some of the most incredible technologies that have never been mentioned publicly before,” Onyero stated last year (https://ibn.fm/PNmKe). “These technologies will redefine the industry and set a new standard for digital platforms.”

• Hawk Point Media recently interviewed SuperCom President and CEO Ordan Trabelsi to discuss the company’s remarkable 2023 performance and future growth
• SuperCom’s extensive investment in R&D, over $40 million since 2014, further solidifies its position as a sector trailblazer
• SuperCom plans to retain its position and continue providing practical, effective, and scalable monitoring solutions for tracking offenders, benefiting all stakeholders

SuperCom (NASDAQ: SPCB), a global leader in secured solutions for the e-government, IoT, and cybersecurity sectors, offers a comprehensive suite of field-proven RFID and GPS tracking technologies. SuperCom’s services span various industries, including security, public safety, law enforcement, domestic violence prevention, and electronic monitoring of offenders. Exploring SuperCom’s success, Hawk Point Media recently interviewed SuperCom President and CEO Ordan Trabelsi to discuss the company’s remarkable 2023 performance and future growth drivers (https://ibn.fm/CvJ4B).

Despite being under-the-radar among investors, SuperCom is entering its 37th year of business and is highly recognized in the professional world. According to Trabelsi, the company’s focus has always been on innovation and providing top-tier traditional and digital identity monitoring solutions. Trabelsi believes that the company’s world-class solutions portfolio has the potential to reshape the identification, monitoring, and public safety landscape. This potential is reflected in the recent record revenues and EBITDA.

As the company continues to demonstrate consistent performance, market cap valuation could be more in line with the company’s operational success, similar to the period between 2012 and 2014 when the stock price appreciated by over 2,000%.

SuperCom’s 2023 results highlight its impressive operating performance. The company posted 5-year-record revenues of $26.6 million, a 51% increase year-over-year, and an EBITDA of $4.8 million, a 2350% increase year-over-year. Gross profit surged 60% year-over-year to $10.2 million, bolstered by a strong Q4 performance. The company has also started 2024 strongly, securing new contracts in California and Canada, and receiving $5 million in new orders from European governments. This strategy of winning more contracts while streamlining operations and demonstrating improved performance could help close valuation gaps.

Significant project wins have also driven SuperCom’s success. In 2022, the company secured a $33 million project with Romania’s Ministry of Interior, further establishing its reputation for executing large-scale national projects. Additionally, SuperCom launched a $3.6 million national electronic monitoring (“EM”) project in Finland and a $4.25 million contract for adult re-entry services in Northern California. Technological advancements, such as the PureProtect solution for domestic violence monitoring and the all-in-one ankle-bracelet solution PureOne, have been well-received and significantly expand the company’s addressable market, supporting expansion into the U.S. market.

SuperCom’s products and service platforms offer several advantages over competitors. For instance, the battery of the Pure Tag bracelet can last over a year without charging, while competitors’ battery usually requires daily charging. Additionally, the company’s location tracking technology is more accurate and works even underground and within buildings. These products are ergonomic, lightweight, and cost-effective, providing a humane-centered alternative to incarceration and improving rehabilitation outcomes.

The company’s solutions can enhance the protection of vulnerable populations, such as victims of domestic violence, through rapid response mechanisms, secure communication channels, and real-time monitoring. SuperCom’s extensive investment in R&D, over $40 million since 2014, on top of the long track record of success of its R&D teams, has resulted in over 100 patents, solidifying its position as a sector trailblazer. These technological advantages have led to a contract win rate of over 65% in National Government Tenders in Europe. As the company expands its footprint globally, it aims to achieve similar success in new markets like the U.S. and Canada.

Entering Q2, SuperCom remains committed to revolutionizing government sectors through superior technology and solutions. This approach has made the company a leader in offender tracking and monitoring solutions. By staying ahead of technological advancements, SuperCom plans to retain its position and continue providing practical, effective, and scalable monitoring solutions for tracking offenders, benefiting all stakeholders involved.

The company’s strategic innovations, top-notch technology, and focus on public safety have propelled it to record growth and established it as a leader in its field. As it continues to expand globally, SuperCom is well-positioned to further enhance its impact and drive continued success.
