• Energy and Water Development, a green-tech engineering solutions company focused on delivering water and energy to extreme environments, is looking to tap into an industry projected to hit $74.64 billion in valuation by 2030
• The company is looking to collaborate with green tech research and development centers in Europe, ultimately growing its presence in the region and carving out a market share
• Going forward, the company expects to outsource green tech platforms to commercialize its technology, in addition to pursuing growth of its intellectual property, not only through research but also through patent applications

Energy and Water Development (OTCQB: EAWD), a green-tech engineering solutions company focused on delivering water and energy to extreme environments, is doubling down on its three main business aspects to carve out a significant market share. Its focus on generation, supply, and maintenance in the water and energy business, has seen the company evolve, ultimately designing and offering sustainable and renewable solutions.

According to Allied Market research, back in 2020, the global green technology and sustainability market was valued at $10.32 billion. The report further pointed out that by 2030, this sector will be valued at $74.64 billion, representing a CAGR of 21.9%, mainly driven by growth in environmental awareness and increasing concerns among organizations and individuals about climate change (https://ibn.fm/o40d9). EAWD is now showing that its innovative solutions can offer serious hope for clean water access, in remote locations, directly from the atmosphere, with the help of no-grid solar. It is also optimistic that the ongoing conversation around climate change will be integral in growing its product’s uptake among consumers.

“With water scarcity becoming an increasingly pressing issue globally, our innovative technology offers a ray of hope by providing a reliable source of clean water while reducing reliance on traditional water sources,” noted Irma Velazquez, the company’s CEO (https://ibn.fm/bfpAa).

EAWD’s growing product line has seen application in the U.S., Mexico, and Germany. Although the focus has been in the U.S. and Mexico, the company has started to assemble its patent-pending innovative off-grid, self-sufficient energy supply Atmosphere Water Generation (“AWG”) systems in Hamburg, Germany, which marks a significant milestone. EAWD is also looking to collaborate with green tech research and development centers in Europe, ultimately growing its regional presence and carving out a market share while at it.

The company’s plan, going forward, is to outsource green tech platforms to commercialize its technology. It looks to do this while offering engineering and technical consultation services that will inform technological solutions to provide water and energy. Given its unique value proposition and offering, the EAWD’s management is optimistic that it will stand out in the market and assert itself as a leader in its space.

“We believe that we are poised to become a pivotal player in an industry that is not only rapidly expanding but also unlocking numerous new markets in response to these urgent environmental issues,” noted EAWD’s amended registration filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (https://ibn.fm/2PXfM).

The company has filed patent applications to achieve this objective, which is critical in growing its value and overall intellectual property. Its recent application in the U.S. in April was built on an international patent application and other filings in Canada, Mexico, Brazil, and Colombia. These initiatives point to the company’s confidence in its offering and its management’s understanding of its potential, increasing shareholder value and offering sustainable technological solutions that provide water and energy in places where it is increasingly needed the most.

• Global copper contracts on the London Metals Exchange breaking records, similar trends observed in New York and Shanghai
• TMET focuses on 100% owned gold and copper projects spanning 1,000+ square kilometers with highway accessibility in Ontario and British Columbia
• The Filion Gold Project features six undrilled orogenic gold targets along the Filion Fault, historical sampling revealed high-grade gold potential
• The Kolos Copper-Gold Project targets untapped copper-gold porphyry potential comparable to regional deposits like Copper Mountain
• The Latham Copper-Gold Project encompasses five never-drilled copper-gold exploration targets in addition to the Gnat Pass copper-gold porphyry deposit, located adjacent to Highway 37 with substantial expansion potential

As global metal markets experience unprecedented volatility, Torr Metals (TSX.V: TMET), a Canada-based company focused on advancing promising early-stage district-scale mineral properties, is positioned to capitalize on the soaring demand for copper and gold.

Global copper contracts on the London Metals Exchange soared nearly 3%, nearing an all-time high last seen in March 2022 (https://ibn.fm/zgnKo). Similar records followed in New York and Shanghai amid a short squeeze on the Comex exchange – a division of the New York Mercantile Exchange (“NYMEX”).

“While there were a lot of Western funds that missed out on the gold rally, it’s clear that they’re very eager to participate in copper,” said Matthew Heap, a portfolio manager at Orion Resource Partners. “That reflects the fact that, thematically, there’s a very clear story to tell for copper, and you can explain in an elevator ride why prices are likely to rally substantially higher from here.”

TMET actively engages in advancing its 100% owned mineral properties across 1,000 square kilometers in Ontario and British Columbia. The company’s portfolio comprises three key exploration projects, each holding substantial promise for new major mineral discoveries and development.

The Filion Gold Project, located in northern Ontario, spans 261 square kilometers, and features six undrilled gold targets along the Filion Fault. Historical sampling has revealed high-grade gold potential, with notable assays including up to 9.1 g/t Au in rock grab samples and 91.4 g/t Au over 0.3m in channel sampling. Recent soil sampling has further underscored the project’s prospects, with assays hitting up to 1.32 g/t Au within a significant anomaly extending approximately 1200 meters along-strike of historical high-grade rock and channel samples.

TMET’s Kolos Copper-Gold Project in south-central British Columbia covers 240 square kilometers, targeting untapped potential comparable to regional deposits like Copper Mountain. Historical rock grab samples have exhibited high-grade values, including assays up to 4.24 g/t Au, 0.52% Cu, and 11.3 g/t Ag. A soil sampling and geophysical survey conducted in late 2023 has recently identified five coincident kilometer-scale soil and geophysical anomalies adjacent to Highway 5, the latter of which suggests robust underlying hydrothermal alteration and mineralization extending up to 1.5 kilometers depth. All the newly defined exploration targets have never been drilled, with pending rock grab sample assays anticipated to provide further valuable insights into the project’s exploration upside potential.

Located in northern British Columbia is the Latham Copper-Gold Project, spanning 689 square kilometers within the province’s famed Golden Triangle. This project encompasses five never-drilled copper-gold anomalies in addition to the Gnat Pass copper-gold porphyry deposit; where historical drilling ended in mineralization, with significant intercepts including 0.44% Cu over 198 meters and 0.72% Cu over 89 meters. Gold content was never systematically tested in historical drilling, presenting further upside with improving deposit economics. High-grade rock grab samples from outcrop at the nearby Dalvenie exploration target further attest to the project’s promise, with values reaching up to 14.15 g/t Au, 4.31% Cu, and 63.1 g/t Ag.

Precious metal prices are projected to increase significantly, driven by surging investor interest and an increasingly supportive macroeconomic environment. With a strong portfolio of exploration projects and a favorable market environment, TMET is well-positioned to achieve significant growth and deliver value for investors amid the green energy transition.

• Bebuzee recently announced the launch of its game-changing Super App, which is set to offer users an all-in-one on-line solution that integrates multiple functionalities and services through a single portal
• The launch comes amid a lawsuit filed by the U.S. Department of Justice that documents the benefits of super apps, arguing that a super app, which incorporates a multitude of mini programs, might allow users to easily discover and access a wide variety of content and services without downloading, setting up, and logging into multiple apps
• The Bebuzee Super App merges communication, e-commerce, real estate, entertainment, and payment services, and more, and offers investors a singular opportunity to be part of a transformative market trend

The U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”), joined by 16 state and district attorneys general, recently filed a civil antitrust lawsuit against Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey, alleging attempts by the tech behemoth to maintain monopoly over smartphones (https://ibn.fm/z6AQp). The lawsuit requests the Court to, among others, stop Apple from “using its control of app distribution to undermine cross-platform technologies such as super apps and cloud streaming apps.” If granted, the decision could speed up the development of Bebuzee (OTC: BBUZ) and the overall super app movement.

The lawsuit describes how super apps, which provide users with broad functionality in a single app, can significantly benefit users. “For example, a super app that incorporates a multitude of mini programs might allow users to easily discover and access a wide variety of content and services without setting up and logging into multiple apps, not unlike how Netflix and Hulu allow users to find and watch thousands of movies and television shows in a single app,” the lawsuit asserts (https://ibn.fm/QurrT).

The DOJ further argues that “part of what makes super apps valuable to consumers is that finding and using mini programs is easier than using an app store and navigating many separate apps, passwords, and set-up processes.” This is precisely what Bebuzee, a social platform and streaming service focused on developing and deploying America’s first Super App, aims to offer.

The company recently announced the launch of its game-changing Super App, which is set to offer a comprehensive suite of features that cater to the ever-evolving needs of modern users. According to Bebuzee, its Super App will provide users with a one-stop digital demand solution, redefining the digital landscape in the United States and Europe. The company notes that its all-in-one app offers a consolidated and efficient digital platform that eliminates the hassle of downloading numerous apps.

The Super App amalgamates diverse functionalities into one unified application, offering core features such as video streaming, photo sharing, a messaging service, a mobile payment and digital wallet service, an online travel agency for lodging reservation, a ticket exchange and resale service, a flight search engine and travel agency, a global real estate search service, and a service for making a variety of short-form entertaining videos. Other notable features include Blogbuz, which scans the world’s news and information flow to give its readers the best of the internet in one place, location reviews, and a global search engine for merchants.

“The Bebuzee Super App is not just an app; it’s a revolution. We’re about to change the game by offering a comprehensive digital ecosystem that caters to every user’s needs, all within a single platform. This is more than an app; it’s a new way of life for social media users globally. We can’t wait for everyone to experience the future of digital engagement,” said Joe Onyero, CEO of Bebuzee, in an April 2024 news release announcing the company’s preparations to launch its Super App (https://ibn.fm/mS1eZ).

Bebuzee is also keen on generating revenue from its game-changing all-in-one platform through a monetization strategy that encompasses earnings from video ads, banner ads, premium plus account subscriptions, sponsored posts, featured properties, premium listings, and real estate agent and merchant subscriptions (https://ibn.fm/f6i3Z).

With factors like changing demographics and app overload making a case for the broad adoption of super apps among American consumers, according to an article in the Harvard Business Review (https://ibn.fm/bo7bn), Bebuzee appears ideally poised to take advantage of the changing market dynamic. Accordingly, the company’s Super App presents a unique opportunity for investors to be part of a transformative market trend.

Beneway USA is looking to launch an initial public offering (“IPO”) soon.

In its pre-IPO presentation, Beneway USA documented its future exponential growth potential. The presentation noted Beneway’s – and, by extension, SUIC’s – plans to open 750+ franchise stores in North America and Asia through I.Hart Group. SUIC and Beneway intend to achieve this plan prior to the IPO (https://ibn.fm/n1UKo).

At the beginning of this year, I.Hart Group operated 150 global franchised locations under various brands and products, including Monga(C) Taiwan-style fried chicken, flower tea drinks, cloud kitchen management, AI smart machines, hot pot, and more. Since then, I.Hart Group has signed franchise authorization agreements that will see the number of franchised stores in Asia grow to 200 stores by year-end and over 500 stores over the next five years (https://ibn.fm/wXYRO).

Still, I.Hart Group intends to integrate more successful brands and catering groups into its portfolio in Asia, initially targeting 25 different strong brands.

SUIC will use part of the financing in supply chain integration: the company will leverage its supply chain fund and AI fintech supply chain platform to provide more innovative financial products to merchants and franchisees that will accommodate franchisees’ urgent need for expansion. SUIC and Beneway USA have already launched this platform, a B2B2C system developed in conjunction with Boom Fintech (https://ibn.fm/2WJFP).

“We are quite excited for this financing round to support the pre-IPO franchising and business expansion that allows for the flexibility to scale up as our business grows. At the same time, we are transforming the industry by adopting a revolutionary multi-branding cuisine-specific business model. As we enter major markets in the U.S., Europe, and other parts of the globe, we will have more aggressive mergers and acquisitions and franchising with financing plans,” said SUIC CEO Hank Wang in the December 2023 news release.

SUIC is also focused on obtaining financing from investors to complement and supplement its existing sources of funding. Mr. Hank commented on this financing approach, saying, “Through capital market financing, we aim to build extensive retail and supplier network in each country and solidify our position as a leading player in the global catering franchise and fintech market. We are intent on achieving the highest value for our shareholders.”

• PaxMedica is preparing to submit a New Drug Application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration later this year for using suramin to treat Human African Trypanosomiasis
• PaxMedica is currently preparing for an associated and very important Type C meeting with the FDA scheduled for June 27th
• Type C meetings are designated by the FDA to address specific issues in drug development, such as clinical trial design, data requirements, or other scientific matters not covered by Type A or Type B meetings

PaxMedica (NASDAQ: PXMD), a biopharmaceutical company specializing in neurological disorder treatments, recently shared corporate updates regarding its continued progress toward establishing suramin as an accepted treatment for Human African Trypanosomiasis (“HAT”).

PaxMedica is preparing to submit a New Drug Application (“NDA”) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for using suramin to treat Human African Trypanosomiasis, a well-established treatment in East Africa for nearly a century. In April 2024, PaxMedica demonstrated its commitment to global health by responding to an urgent request from Malawi for an emergency release of suramin. This proactive strategy highlights PaxMedica’s dedication to advancing global healthcare solutions (https://ibn.fm/PCQlF).

PaxMedica is also gearing up for a significant Type C meeting with FDA on June 27th. This meeting is critical for the advancement of PAX-101, the company’s leading drug candidate for treating autism, as it progresses through the regulatory framework.

Type C meetings are designated by the FDA to address specific issues in drug development, such as clinical trial design, data requirements, or other scientific matters not covered by Type A or Type B meetings. For PaxMedica, this Type C meeting is a strategic opportunity to engage with FDA experts and discuss the development steps required for PAX-101. This will ensure the company meets all necessary regulatory standards as it moves forward.

The upcoming meeting is a pivotal event for PaxMedica. It provides a platform to align with the FDA on crucial aspects concerning PAX-101, an intravenous formulation of suramin with potential to treat serious conditions like Human African Trypanosomiasis and Autism Spectrum Disorder (“ASD”). By engaging with the FDA, PaxMedica aims to clarify the regulatory pathways and address any potential hurdles in the clinical trial process, which are essential for bringing PAX-101 closer to market approval.

The implications of this FDA meeting are significant. It represents a key moment for PaxMedica to showcase the therapeutic potential and public health benefits of PAX-101. Successfully navigating this meeting could facilitate the next phases of clinical trials and the eventual approval process. This is crucial as PaxMedica seeks to address HAT, a neglected tropical disease, and ASD, affecting millions worldwide.

PaxMedica’s recent humanitarian efforts, such as providing suramin for HAT treatment in Malawi, demonstrate the company’s commitment to global health challenges. These actions highlight PAX-101’s potential to impact global healthcare positively.

As PaxMedica approaches this important meeting, the outcomes could significantly influence the company’s strategic direction and its ability to advance its mission of developing innovative treatments for neurological disorders. A positive engagement with the FDA could pave the way for further clinical developments and eventually bring PAX-101 to the patients who need it most.

CEO Howard Weisman stated, “We are not just continuing; we are intensifying our efforts to achieve significant milestones for these programs by the end of this year. We are on track to submit an NDA for PAX-101, and potentially secure an FDA Priority Review Voucher if approved.”

• SuperCom Ltd. is a company focused on serving government and institutional electronic monitoring needs on a global basis
• SuperCom’s competitive strength in serving the electronic and digital security ID market is demonstrated in its most recent $1.8 million contract with a long-term client
• SuperCom’s most recent quarterly financial statement shows a 400 percent YOY increase in EBITDA, as well as revenue growth of 8 percent and gross profit growth of 139 percent

Secured electronic and digital solutions innovator SuperCom (NASDAQ: SPCB) recently announced that it has secured a new $1.8 million contract with a long-standing customer of its e-Government division, showcasing the company’s continued competitiveness and the values that help it retain clients. The new contract is expected to be fulfilled over the next five months. For over 30 years, SuperCom has been a trusted partner with over 20 national governments around the world, recognized as a global leader in the design, development, integration, and delivery of highly secured national ID and e-government solutions (https://ibn.fm/OMqVI).

SuperCom’s e-government platforms help governments, and their agencies create secured, multi-identification (Multi-ID) documents and issue them for various needs ranging from border control services to biometrics enrollment. The company supports the public safety sector globally with proprietary solutions, as well as complementary services for its flagship products that support e-government, IoT and cybersecurity sectors.

The new $1.8 million contract is with a customer that has been a SuperCom client for over a decade and follows on the heels of SuperCom’s quarterly statement that highlights $5 million in recent orders the company has received from various European governments.

“This contract not only signifies their satisfaction with our work but also their confidence in SuperCom’s ability to consistently deliver high-quality products and services,” President and CEO Ordan Trabelsi stated in the company’s May 16 announcement (https://ibn.fm/j53d3). “Our ability to secure more contracts of this magnitude with our long-term customers demonstrates our competitive edge and unwavering dedication to their success.”

Much of SuperCom’s corporate focus is on the capacity of its PureSecurity Suite of products to deliver an end-to-end, real-time electronic monitoring (“EM”) solution marketed principally to judicial and law enforcement agencies as a means of establishing community safety protocols while the agencies explore cost-saving alternatives to incarceration. The use of EM solutions for tracking non-incarcerated criminal suspects and convicted offenders has increased on a vast scale in recent years. The Vera Institute of Justice recently reported that about a half million people in the United States participated in EM programs between 2021 and 2022, following a five-fold jump in EM use between 2005 and 2021 (https://ibn.fm/Tw1Gm). The growing use of EM underscores the strength of the market opportunity for SuperCom.

According to the quarterly financial statement issued earlier this month, SuperCom’s revenues increased by 8 percent and gross profit by 139 percent (https://ibn.fm/uyV8e). That also resulted in a 400 percent YOY growth in the company’s EBITDA.

The company is focused on expanding with more county and state partners in North America, as well as advancing its distribution area in Europe, where a number of national-level contracts are already in place.

• CEO explains that Aston Bay is in the business of adding value through discovery of high-grade critical metals and precious metals deposits
• ATBHF is working with partner to develop the Storm Copper Project, located in Canada
• Storm project is serving as a model as the company looks to discover, develop other projects

Aston Bay Holdings (TSX.V: BAY) (OTCQB: ATBHF) CEO Thomas Ullrich talked all things copper in a recent episode of the Bell2Bell podcast, which delivers informative updates and exclusive interviews with executives operating in fast-moving industries (https://ibn.fm/fwJak). During the interview, Ullrich and host Stuart Smith discussed key information about Aston Bay, a publicly traded Canadian minerals exploration company focused on exploring high-grade copper and gold deposits in North America.

Ullrich provided an overview of the company, noting that Aston Bay is in the business of adding value through discovery of high-grade critical metals and precious metals deposits. “We’re an exploration-stage company,” he explained. “Really what that means is that we want to get out there and make those first finds — really make the discovery — because we think that’s where you add the most value over the shortest time for our shareholders.”

During the interview, Ullrich also talked about the company’s team of advisors and directors and their unique expertise in the exploration-stage space. As the only full-time employee, Ullrich has been involved in geoscience since the early 1990s, working in everything from big mining companies to universities, as well as the junior exploration space. “[That’s] where I am now and where I prefer to be,” he said. “I think this is the most exciting place to be. There’s nothing more exciting than making a discovery.”

Ullrich also noted “a fantastic group of advisors and directors,” including Jessie Liu-Ernsting, who has capital markets knowhow and decades of experience in the business; Jeff Wilson, the CEO of Precipitate Gold; Mark Pryor, the current vice president of exploration for the Electrum Group; and Gary O’Connor, an extremely experienced geologist with expertise in the capital markets.

In addition, Ullrich discussed in depth the company’s primary project, the Storm Copper Project located in Canada, which Aston Bay is advancing with its partner, America West. Ullrich explained that the project is developing on two fronts. First, the company is taking zones of high-grade copper and advancing them toward the mine stage.

“But the Storm story is not just a development story,” Ullrich continued. “We also have what we think is significant potential to be hiding some potentially large mineralization in the subsurface. . . . We think that all this mineralization that we’re seeing at the surface, that we’re taking towards mine, is really just an indication of what can be hidden at depth, so the second big story for us at Storm is that potential for additional discoveries at depth.”

Ullrich went on to note that the Storm project is serving as a model as the company looks toward other projects, including the Epworth project, a copper-deposit project that is also located in Nunavut.

“We want to apply the knowledge we’ve gained at Storm, both technically and business knowledge . . . and look at this one as Storm version 2 and see if we can develop this in the same way,” he noted. “Add another success to our portfolio here.
