MicroSalt revolutionises salt intake with low sodium technology and big growth plans

MicroSalt PLC

MicroSalt PLC (AIM: SALT) CEO Rick Guiney tells Proactive's Stephen Gunnion that the recently listed company specialises in innovative food technology that enhances the flavour of salt with significantly less sodium through patented technology. This technology changes the salt crystal's size, increasing its surface area for a fuller flavour without excess sodium intake, a major global health concern. The company targets food manufacturers, offering a product with the same functionality as traditional salt but processed differently. Additionally, MicroSalt aims to enter consumer markets, with products already available on Amazon in the UK and in about 500 stores in the US. MicroSalt's technology is distinguished by an exclusive patent, marking a significant advancement in efforts to reduce sodium consumption over the past two decades. The company's strategy includes expanding into the UK retail market, engaging with major supermarket groups to offer MicroSalt on shelves and incorporate it into their own brands, aiming for products like crisps to retain their taste while having 50% less sodium. The decision to list on the AIM market reflects London's receptivity to small food technology firms and its strategic importance in the food and ingredients sector. MicroSalt's IPO aims to raise public awareness about its low-sodium solution and the broader health issues related to sodium intake. Regulatory support for low sodium initiatives is significant, with governments recognizing the health and economic benefits of reducing sodium consumption. MicroSalt has also announced an export collaboration with American Trading International (ATI), facilitating access to 90 markets through ATI's distribution network, and enhancing the company's growth prospects. Looking ahead, MicroSalt anticipates significant developments in 2024 and 2025 as it expands its reach to consumers and large food manufacturers.

Knightscope (NASDAQ: KSCP) Demonstrates The Value In Its Autonomous Security Robots As Clients Continue To Renew Recurring Revenue Contracts

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Robots are taking over headlines in 2024 as the world continues to advance and companies around the globe showcase innovative ways to incorporate robots into our society. The robotics market was valued at $31.38 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach $110.39 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of 15% from 2022-2030. One company that is demonstrating how robotics can be integral to public safety is Knightscope (NASDAQ: KSCP), a technology company ushering in the dawn of Autonomous Security Robots (ASRs). Knightscope’s success has garnered attention across the nation, and the company has won corporate contracts with major corporations, law enforcement agencies and even the U.S. Federal Government. These clients are among a long list of other collaborations. However, one of the most impressive aspects of these partnerships is how many continue to re-sign with Knightscope – the company reports that several re-sign for 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and even 8 consecutive years. This is a key proof point in the company’s claim of “recurring revenue for the recurring societal problem of crime.” In February, the company announced the renewal of its K5 ASR contract with a long-standing client in the entertainment industry. This renewal marks the eighth consecutive year of collaboration between the client – who is based in North Hollywood – and Knightscope. Knightscope reports that the client has consistently expressed satisfaction with the ASRs' ability to deter security threats, making it a top priority in their quarterly business reviews. Before the deployment of the ASRs, the client faced issues such as trespassing, vandalism, theft and break-ins. However, over the past seven years, these incidents have been significantly reduced to only a few isolated cases. A Las Vegas apartment complex has also recently renewed its contract for the K5 ASR for the fourth consecutive year. The success of this deployment was previously covered by the Las Vegas Review-Journal and News 3 Las Vegas, highlighting the company's ability to maintain a dedicated customer base, reduce acquisition expenses and provide cost-efficient solutions in order to positively impact its financial outlook. Starting from February 28, 2024, Knightscope will be participating in multiple events throughout Las Vegas. The first one is the World Game Protection Conference at the Tropicana. On March 18, 2024, EVP and Chief Client Officer Stacy Stephens will return to Mandalay Bay for Shoptalk. Stephens will be a panelist for the session titled “Enhancing Store Performance, Security and Safety.” Another event in April is also in the pipeline and will be announced at a later date. Contract renewals are not just routine procedures; they exemplify Knightscope's capacity to foster growth, stability and strengthened partnerships with existing clients. In January, a Fortune 500 company located in Charlotte, NC renewed its contract with Knightscope for a third year. Since 2022, the finance company has chosen to utilize the K5 ASR for patrolling a recently built parking structure. These ongoing renewals not only validate the company's Machine-as-a-Service (MaaS) business model but also generate recurring revenue that contributes towards solving a persistent societal issue. While the company is always looking for new business, consistent and recurring partnerships serve to highlight trust and satisfaction in Knightscope's products and business model. These renewals also provide valuable opportunities to nurture relationships and better understand evolving client needs, as well as the potential for recommendations or the expansion of business opportunities – all while reducing costs and making the world safer.

No More Jitters? Company Says Its Hydro-CaffeineTM Improves Your Morning Caffeine Fix’s Benefits By 400-500%

Rexis Biotech

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga It’s no secret that many people turn to chugging caffeine-induced drinks to get them through the day. But what they may not realize is too much caffeine can be a bad thing. Jitters, elevated heart rates and anxiety are just some of the side effects many consumers just learn to accept. But caffeine overload doesn’t have to be the foregone conclusion just to get your caffeine fix. Products like Rexis Biotech Inc.’s Hydro-Caffeine TM are revolutionizing the energy drink market. Thanks to its nanotechnology, the Delaware biotech firm says it has created a better caffeine that gives you energy without all the bad side effects. Quadruple The Effects For Less Hydro-Caffeine can be found in Rexis’s new groundbreaking energy drink Squared Energy, a product line extension to their already successful Squared brand which is available in over 2,000+ retailers in 10 states across the country. It is created using the company’s proprietary co-crystal that amplifies the effects by increasing the bioavailability of its caffeine co-crystal by four to five times. Rexis is taking it up a level with this drink by fusing Hydro-Caffeine with naturally occurring Hemp Delta-9 THC + broad-spectrum CBD to create a singular polymorph molecule in which all three work together for the ultimate entourage effect. That creates a unique experience for consumers highlighted by clear-headed, focused energy without any jitters or anxiety, according to Rexis. The first two flavors they’ll be bringing to market include a Raspberry Lemonade and their High Spirits Awards-winning Sparkling Grapefruit. Hydro-Caffeine could be a huge winner for both consumers and Rexis shareholders; caffeine is a very popular energy stimulant. Not only does caffeine give you energy but it can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes and improve longevity, which is why caffeine is so popular in the U.S. and abroad. While coffee and tea are the most common ways to get a caffeine fix, energy drinks, caffeine pills and supplements are also popular. In fact, the global energy drinks market is poised to reach $108.4 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 8.2% from 2022 to 2031. In the U.S. 93% of Americans say they consume caffeine, with 75% partaking in it daily, according to the International Food Information Council. One-quarter of that group consumes caffeine three or more times a day. It is the latter group that worries doctors. Caffeine overdose is real and can lead to several issues including insomnia, jitters, anxiety, elevated heart rate and headaches. It tends to happen a lot since many Americans underestimate the safe amount of caffeine to consume and still remain healthy. Worse, the International Food Information Council found nearly 29% of consumers in the U.S. say they don’t know what the safe amount of caffeine is. The Secret Sauce Rexis says that with Squared Energy, you need not worry about getting too much or too little caffeine to reap the benefits. The secret behind it is the Hydro-Caffeine fibers which are absorbed more efficiently and rapidly through sublingual and buccal absorption in the cheeks and mouth. That differs from traditional energy drinks, which use a form of encapsulated caffeine in which the caffeine is coated with a sugar-type substance to eliminate bitter flavors. That process increases the time it takes to absorb, decreasing the portion introduced into circulation. The caffeine then must be processed by first-pass metabolism, which reduces efficacy even more. As a result, Rexis says you may receive as much as 25% less of the ingredient in your system than what is said on the packaging. “Shaking Up” The Market Rexis’s potentially game-changing Squared Energy drink isn’t the only way the biotech is shaking up the consumer markets. With its proprietary nanotechnology, it can improve the potency, taste and speed of effectiveness in everything from energy drinks to cannabis-infused beverages. The goal of Rexis Biotech is to be the Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ: NVDA) or Intel Corp. (NASDAQ: INTC) of the consumer packaged goods industry. It envisions a world where brands license Rexis’s nanotechnology to enhance everything from drinks to food. To meet that end Rexis also manufactures and distributes products for companies including Hemp D9 beverages for 3Chi and functional mushrooms for First Person. It also licenses its technology to brands in the regulated cannabis market including Smokiez and Happy Valley. Caffeine will always be a preferred way to get a boost, but that doesn’t mean consumers have to accept the negative side effects. Jitters, headaches and elevated heart rates could become a thing of the past thanks to Rexis Biotech. Rexis Biotech is currently raising funds to support its growth. Click here to learn more about Rexis Biotech’s crowdfunding raise, and how to invest in the company the founders are modeling after Nvidia! Featured photo by Mark Daynes on Unsplash. Rexis is the industry leader and pioneer in developing Hydrophobic Molecule Delivery systems. Leading in the innovation, production and formulation of water based ingredients for use in the Pharmaceutical and Consumer Packaged goods industry. Established in 2022, Rexis is building a core mix of proprietary IP used to sustain strong sales models with pharmaceutical licensees, consumer packaged goods manufacturers and clinical research teams.

Enhanced Design Breakthrough Makes Ventripoint's VMS+ Even Simpler to Use

Ventripoint Diagnostics Ltd.

***Faster, User Friendly Cardio AI Imaging Product for Commercial Roll Out***   Toronto, Ont. — TheNewswire --- March 04, 2024 — Ventripoint Diagnostics Ltd. ("Ventripoint" or the "Company"), (TSXV:VPT ); ( OTC:VPTDF) released a significant upgrade to the design and function of its whole-heart analysis system (VMS+3.2), which accelerates imaging, analysis and ease of use at the point of care.   The new design allows immediate calibration by technicians with existing ultrasound equipment  to more quickly generate 2D ultrasound images, which the VMS+3.2 turns into a high-definition 3D heart model. The upgraded system also includes an improved 3D visualization tool, which speeds up and facilitates the analysis of 3D ultrasound exams.   VMS+3.2 release improves the ease-of-use of 2D and 3D echocardiogram procedures for sonographers, cardiologists and caregivers, assuring seamless integration of Ventripoint technology into patient-care workflow and standard of care. In a busy echocardiography unit, reducing the time for a procedure without compromising the quality of the results is a constant challenge and the VMS+3.2 will be appreciated for these innovations.   “We are constantly improving the design of our system, to generate efficiencies and better outcomes,” said Ventripoint’s Interim CEO, Hugh MacNaught. “This is a best-in-class diagnostic tool that allows enhanced echocardiograms of infants and adults to be available faster and at less cost than a cardiac MRI, with equivalent structural and functional results.”   The new design removes the magnet from the probe-tracking system and so it is now immune to environments where magnetic fields are present and is no longer a concern for implanted patient medical devices, such as pacemakers and other cardiac devices, where magnets can be disruptive. The Company intends to submit to regulatory agencies for the removal of this limitation on the VMS+ system.     Ventripoint’s technology is now being used in leading hospitals in Europe, the UK, Canada, China and the United States as an alternative to traditional MRI heart scans. These users will be offered the VMS+3.2 upgrade for a fee and future sales will be of the VMS+3.2 version.  The Company is now focused on expanding the user base in hospitals and clinics worldwide.   The Company has a world-class board of clinical advisors who continue to provide ideas for design improvements, which are ongoing.  The company expects to announce additional enhancements in 2024, which will require regulatory approvals and enable VMS+ to be used with a wider range of patients.  It is important to note that these future upgrades are software improvements, which can be seamlessly integrated into existing and new VMS+ units.   For further information, please contact: Jonathan Robinson CFA JRobinson@oakhillfinancial.ca (416) 669-1001 Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this news release.   About Ventripoint Diagnostics Ltd.   Ventripoint has become an industry leader in the application of AI (Artificial Intelligence) to echocardiography. Ventripoint's VMS products are powered by its proprietary KBR technology, which is the result of a decade of development and provides accurate volumetric cardiac measurements equivalent to MRI. This affordable, gold-standard alternative allows cardiologists greater confidence in the management of their patients. Providing better care to patients serves as a springboard and basic standard for all Ventripoint's products that guide our future developments. In addition, VMS+ is versatile and can be used with all ultrasound systems from any vendor supported by regulatory market approvals in the U.S., Europe, and Canada.

HTX DAO and HTX Ventures Attend Blockchain Festival Asia 2024: Advancing the Adoption of Innovative Crypto Technology

HTX DAO

On March 2, HTX DAO attended the Blockchain Festival Asia 2024, sponsoring both the event and the Lanyard session. This marked HTX DAO's debut at a top-tier crypto summit, highlighting its objective to enhance global recognition and attract more renowned industry institutions for its ecosystem development. HTX DAO was officially established on January 18, with the aim of being a leading decentralized autonomous organization in the blockchain ecosystem and focusing on open finance and tokenized economy. Currently, the HTX DAO ecosystem has enlisted the support of 19 major industrial players, including HTX, TRON, Poloniex, BitTorrent, Spark Digital Capital, APENFT, Stratified Capital, JustLend DAO, OIG Group, Double Peak, stUSDT, Zebec, USDD, ANKR, Sun.io, Merkle 3s Capital, WINkLink, TUSD, and Owlit Finance. HTX DAO has expressed its commitment to exploring the possibility of user autonomy within the community, facilitating information sharing across multiple channels.

Furthermore, through organizing offline community engagement activities worldwide, HTX DAO endeavors to establish direct and trustworthy connections, thereby encouraging increased participation from practitioners and institutions within the crypto industry towards the development of the HTX DAO ecosystem. During the summit, Amelia Chan, the HTX Strategic Partnerships Lead, was invited to participate in a panel discussion on the topic of "Trading on DEX vs CEX: What’s the Difference and What Are the Risks? KYC Procedures with Technology". The choice between CEX and DEX, according to Amelia, depends on various factors, such as requirements for fund control, attitude towards regulation, user experience, liquidity needs, trading preferences, and the importance placed on anonymity. In comparison, CEX offers convenience and high liquidity, while DEX ensures privacy and allows individuals to have full control over their assets, aligning closely with the decentralized principles of the cryptocurrency industry. Amelia also pointed out that HTX prioritizes user information privacy and asset security. Currently, through the implementation of advanced encryption algorithms and multi-factor authentication mechanisms, the exchange is taking all possible measures to ensure the safety of users' accounts and assets.

This will facilitate the gradual implementation of interoperability between chains and ecosystems, driving the cryptocurrency market towards maturity and mainstream adoption. Moving forward, HTX and HTX Ventures are dedicated to closely monitoring the innovation and development of the Ethereum ecosystem, while continuously advancing investment and project incubation to nurture the next generation of Web3 enterprises.
