Oakridge Global Energy Solutions is an integrated energy storage solutions company that uses state-of-the-art technology to design and develop advanced, high-quality cells, batteries and power systems. The company’s strategy is to deliver innovation while simultaneously refining an industrial scale platform featuring multiple lithium ion technologies and form factors that are optimized to address a variety of key markets – including stationary and grid storage; motive applications, such as electric and hybrid electric fleet vehicles; government applications, including military, aerospace, marine, civil and municipal; and special applications, such as medical and telecom.

In June, the company completed a detailed restructuring of its operations focused on expanding its market reach through the addition of improved service and technology solutions. In addition to a new name and updated corporate branding, Oakridge announced the commencement of full-scale operations at its two manufacturing plants in Melbourne, Florida, which will be instrumental to its ongoing efforts to meet the growing demand for its cutting-edge large format Pro Series golf car batteries, as well as its small format Patriot Series RC batteries.

“Over the last year and a half, we have been quietly rebuilding our company for the global launch of a range of new ‘Made in the USA’ battery products to meet the customer backlog that we now have,” Steve Barber, executive chairman and chief executive officer of Oakridge, stated in a news release regarding the restructuring. “Our new brand captures our global presence, our commitment to excel in customer service, and the high quality of the products that we are able to provide.”

In addition to promoting domestic growth, Oakridge has made considerable progress toward expanding its presence on the international energy storage stage in recent months. The company’s recently formed subsidiary, Oakridge Global Energy Solutions Limited, Hong Kong, is expected to play a major role in its global growth strategy by serving as the foundation for sales throughout the Asia-Pacific region.

“We are incredibly excited about this new subsidiary given the tremendous demand we’ve seen for our products internationally,” continued Barber. “We’ve been working toward a global launch of a range of new battery products and this subsidiary will play an instrumental role in that launch in a range of important ways.”

Bolstering this international progress, the company also acquired a substantial interest in Leclanche S.A., a Swiss developer and manufacturer of large-sized lithium ion batteries originally founded in 1909. This investment is expected to strengthen Oakridge’s existing capability while immediately enhancing its global footprint. The company plans to leverage the momentum provided by this acquisition as it looks to uplist to the NASDAQ capital markets in ‘the very near future’.

WRIT Media Group, through wholly-owned subsidiary Retro Infinity, Inc., is giving nostalgic gamers a chance to secure early access to its expansive catalog of classic video games. Through the launch of a new campaign on crowdfunding site Kickstarter, the company is closing in on the official debut of its proprietary gaming technology. Following launch, the Retro Infinity Player will enable users to enjoy a full library of classic games originally developed for platforms such as Amiga and Atari on a variety of modern media devices – including smartphones, tablets and set-top streaming devices. According to Statista, the U.S. market for mobile games is expected to surpass $3 billion this year, up nearly 50 percent from 2013. This market performance makes it an ideal time for WRIT to reintroduce its library of titles.

“Retro Infinity’s expertise and niche focus is a key factor in allowing us to bring our Amiga classic titles and other classic brands to these various platforms and to the retro gamer,” Eric Mitchell, president of WRIT, stated in a news release. “We are excited to introduce our best classic titles to both an old and new generation of players.”

The costs associated with the development of original mobile games can exceed $1 million, which, when combined with the two-to-three year development timeline, means that a single unsuccessful title can be enough to sink a game developer. By leveraging a library of proven titles that were wildly popular following initial release in the ‘80s and ‘90s, WRIT is able to avoid these risks while continuing to capitalize on the popularity of mobile gaming. The company’s licensed titles are time-tested, simple and play well on both small and large screens. Since many of its games were originally developed for the same platforms, WRIT will be able to minimize development costs while releasing a larger collection of titles that have established market appeal.

ContentChecked Holdings is the parent company of a family of mobile applications designed for individuals with specific dietary requirements. Since the official U.S. launch of its first app in early 2015, ContentChecked has continued to build its database of product information obtained from food manufacturers – the database now incorporates 70% of all conventional U.S. products, fully supporting the needs of ContentChecked customers.

Consumers register their food allergies or intolerances with ContentChecked, and simply scan the bar codes of whichever items they are considering purchasing. The app then provides users with information on what products fit their pre-set requirements. This connection between food producers and users is the basis of the ContentChecked business model – a highly engaged consumer, ready to buy, and in need of recommendations.

By initially focusing upon food allergies and intolerances, ContentChecked had access to a marketplace of more than 15 million people in the United States that suffer from food allergies, in addition to a demographic who develop stomach problems as a result of different foods. Though the overall market for food allergies and intolerances is valued at $13 billion in 2015, ContentChecked further expanded its market reach through the launch of MigraineChecked, SugarChecked and VeganChecked applications.

With these offerings, ContentChecked’s market reach now extends to the roughly 38 million people in the United States currently diagnosed with migraines; as well as to the largest health-related cost in the country: the 97 million people at risk of developing, or have already developed, Type 2 diabetes. ContentChecked’s growth is spearheaded by a talented team of professionals using their experience in entrepreneurial endeavors, sales, marketing and advisory services, nutrition, web design, social media and graphics and data management to help users better manage their food allergies, migraines, and overall health.

Hemp, Inc. today announced that David Schmitt, chief operating officer (COO) of the company’s Industrial Hemp Manufacturing, LLC subsidiary, has been elected to the North Carolina Industrial Hemp Association (NCIHA) board of directors for the 2015-2016 term.

For more than a year, the NCIHA has aggressively pushed for legalization of hemp in North Carolina. The association’s efforts begin at a grassroots level, serving as a hub of industry information and development for farmers, processors, retailers, consumers and educational/governmental stakeholders in North Carolina.

The state is also home to Industrial Hemp Manufacturing and its 70,000-square-foot decortication plant – the largest in North America – where Schmitt applies his more than 20 years of senior level management experience in the natural fiber industry to the subsidiary’s advancement.

For the last decade, Schmitt has participated in growing and processing of natural fibers such as kenaf, jute, and is now gearing up for industrial hemp. Through extensive research and development, he has also brought to market several new products, including DrillWall™, a loss circulation material (LCM) used for maintaining the seals on drilling for water, oil, gas and any other liquid or gas.

This managerial and industry experience makes Schmitt a complementary fit for the NCIHA’s endeavors, according to NCIHA Executive Director Thomas Shumaker.

“We are honored to have him take his seat on our board. His knowledge and experience in the field of industrial hemp processing will serve as an invaluable asset,” Shumaker stated in the news release.

NCIHA is currently “lobbying the North Carolina legislature to legalize the propagation of Industrial Hemp,” the passage of which the organization says would:

• Establish an agricultural program to grow or cultivate industrial hemp in the State of North Carolina; permit the growing, cultivating, possession and sale of industrial hemp and products containing hemp;
• Remove industrial hemp from the definition of marijuana in the North Carolina General Statutes;
• Allow a person, firm or corporation to grow industrial hemp for commercial purposes upon proper application and receipt of a license from the Commissioner of Agriculture;
• Provide for an initial, graduated license fee, to be paid by each grower, based upon the number of acres proposed for cultivation of industrial hemp; and
• Provide for the creation of the North Carolina Industrial Hemp Commission.

Schmitt supports the NCIHA’s pursuit and said he looks forward to joining the cause.

“It is truly a privilege to join such a driven group of, not only, hemp advocators, but promulgators in support of state laws legalizing the growing and processing of industrial hemp,” he stated. “NCIHA’s core team members are really champions for industrial hemp and providing a means for farmers to economically benefit from the revival of hemp with sustainable crops. So, I’m really looking forward to serving on the board and collaborating with peers to help legalize hemp in the state of North Carolina.”

Hemp, Inc. Chief Executive Officer Bruce Perlowin noted the timeliness of Schmitt’s appointment to the NCIHA’s board of directors.

“With our multipurpose industrial hemp processing plant in the final stages of being fully re-assembled, David’s appointment to the NCIHA board of directors could not have come at a better time,” he said. “Our plant in North Carolina will have the ability to vertically integrate growing, decortication, and milling. Not only do we expect it to produce millions of dollars in revenue a year from processing kenaf and, later, hemp, it’s aligned with our commitment to the American farmers and to spearheading a new clean, green American agricultural and industrial revolution.”

Located on 9 acres in Spring Hope, North Carolina, Hemp, Inc.’s multipurpose industrial hemp processing plant is nearly 70 percent complete. The company has deployed a skilled crew to conduct internal assessments of the equipment and ensure that every aspect of the decortication line is prepped for maximum operational efficiency. Hemp, Inc. expects the plant will be fully operational during the fourth quarter.
