Dr. Wanli Min, a leading technologist driving China's AI revolution and a technology innovation pioneer who spearheads Industrial Intelligence, stated that the digital transformation is developing as a global trend to rejuvenate every industry and also create new value to everyone. "When we talk about technology in the UK, we are talking about the sound traditional IT infrastructure but also the somewhat slow adoption of consumer-facing new tech. This disparity lies ample opportunities ahead for digital transformation." he noted, "The investment opportunity is mature now to adopt digital transformation in the UK and Europe at large".

LONDON, UK / ACCESSWIRE / September 24, 2020 / Dr. Wanli Min, Founder and CEO of North Summit Capital and QuadTalent Technology, was invited to speak at the UK- China Tech Forum on September 23rd. With the theme of "The Future of Industry and Sustainable Tech," the Forum was hosted by the China-Britain Business Council (CBBC) and techUK, in partnership with the Department for International (DIT) to explore the key trends in digital transformation and sustainable tech in both countries, as well as addressing the wider challenges and opportunities for UK-China tech collaboration.

Dr. Min stated that the digital transformation is developing as a global trend to rejuvenate every industry and also create new value to everyone. "When we talk about technology in the UK, we are talking about the sound traditional IT infrastructure but also the somewhat slow adoption of consumer-facing new tech. This disparity lies ample opportunities ahead for digital transformation." he noted, "The investment opportunity is mature now to adopt digital transformation in the UK and Europe at large".

In particular, Dr. Min shed light on the huge opportunities in using technology, such as artificial intelligence and big data, to digitize traditional industries, which currently have seen the minimum technology penetration. "The resources allocated to manufacturing, agriculture and retail are not as much as they should have deserved," said Dr. Min. "This creates an opportunity window for investors per se, and also opportunities for technology practitioners."

In that front, education and retail are two sectors where Chinese and UK companies can collaborate and create great value.

For education, the opportunity lies in part in the well-developed English education system in the UK for school-age and preschool children. China, on the other hand, has one of the world's largest English education markets.

North Summit Capital in March has led the £4 million (approximately $4.9 million) round A funding for Lingumi, a London-based edtech platform for toddlers and preschoolers. The e-learning startup is using the investment to advance its technology and expand rapidly in the Chinese market. Notably, half of Lingumi's revenue came from China.

"This is a perfect example to showcase the complementary relationship between UK and China," said Dr. Min. "Once we put together the strengths, consumers and entrepreneurs from the two countries can benefit collectively."

On the retail side, China's rapid development in consumer tech, such as mobile payment and online shopping, is a good reference case for UK counterparts, said Dr. Min.

As the COVID-19 pandemic hit the world as a shock, the live streaming technology and businesses are booming worldwide. While many are exploring the use of online meetings to substitute in-office work, Dr. Min noted that it could be a revolution for retail sales.

Traditional retail sales are one-to-one services happening in person in brick-and-mortar stores. But the live streaming technology would enable an exceptional salesperson to face thousands of potential customers at the same time, significantly improving the working efficiency and conversion rate, added Dr. Min.

As a former scientist and Silicon Valley veteran, Dr. Min took an unconventional turn in his career when he departed the tech giant Alibaba to found North Summit Capital and QuadTalent Technology last year. With a mission to advance the technology for social good. The fund and tech start-up closely collaborate under the "tech + capital" model, where the two explore and discover value-creation potential in data and value-intensive traditional industries to create investment opportunities.

"The value creation of AI and big data is real, tangible, and is going to be far exceeding our imagination if we had certain ways to accelerate the mind-set of traditional industry side practitioners," he said.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / SEPTEMBER 24, 2020 / As information transforms into digital format, many businesses are turning towards technology. As this new economy develops, special skills like computer programming and coding are increasing in demand.

CEO of Codewithsharen, top computer programmer and a mother of three, Sharen Eddings, is ahead of the game by establishing a coding lesson specialized for the younger generation, but open for all. "Coding doesn't only teach you about technicality, but also a lot of other skills such as critical thinking and problem solving," Eddings stated. When the pandemic hits, Eddings was quick to act as she turns her coding class into a virtual lesson. She developed her own software to give her students the attention and engagement they need, regardless of the digital format. Her students consist of children from grade six and up. Her virtual class would start with an eight to ten-minute typing lesson, followed by an introductory video that walks them through the class schedule and lessons. The course would go on for an hour.

Coding began for Eddings when she was looking for a way to provide her kids with better healthcare and find herself a better career path. This motivation led to her initial contact with computer programming at a local library where she fell in love with it. "I saw a lot of potential with the subject matter and decided to put what I learned into my resume. Two weeks later, I landed myself a job at a tech company, and it has changed my life ever since," Eddings claimed, "I had better wages and opportunities and no longer saw the glass ceiling." She then explained her experience working as a computer programmer as nothing short of remarkable, "Tech companies pay for their employees to think, they would even pay for you to continue your education," she explained. "I would brainstorm with my co-workers to solve a coding problem and talk to them about my family at the same time. Everyone knew about my sons and would even ask about them," she stated, "In the tech world, you're not merely an employee. You get to keep the role that you have outside of work as a mother, father, sister, or daughter," she stated. As a mother of three, Eddings feels the benefit of working in a tech company as they give her flexible working hours and the liberty to work at home. "Freedom" was the word she emphasized when asked to describe what success is as a coder, "If you can control your future in any shape or form, that's a success. If you're someone who is looking for a change in lifestyle, this is the job that you're looking for," she stated.

Her passion for computer programming pushes her to build her coding program. "I started small with just my son and his classmates four years ago," Eddings explained, "Then, I started to volunteer in different schools, which soon turned into an after-school program." Through the program, Eddings taught kids how to read, write, and develop code. "There was a lot of excitement for it! I started with fifteen students, which quickly became twenty-five as they kept on sneaking into my classroom," she said excitedly, "At some point, I was trying to figure out how to multiply myself because the demand was becoming really high, and that's when I came up with the virtual online lessons.."

With the pandemic setting in and the growing number of students, Eddings plans to take her virtual lesson to the next level as she seeks funding. "Seeking funding is pretty challenging," Eddings admits. Even though the tech world appreciates her as a working mother, the investing firms? Not so much. According to a research study in 2019, there's barely one percent of Black female founders in the tech industry who get approved for funding and grants. "Convincing parents to put their kids through a coding lesson can also be challenging at times. A lot of them think that their kids can't handle it, which is not true at all," Eddings argued, "In reality, kids are brilliant, plus, parents can also learn it too with their kids!"

Through Codewithsharen, kids won't only learn how to code, but also how to expand their creativity. Eddings sets a time for her students to apply their skills into something fun and tangible. "That time is called Free Fridays, and during Free Fridays, students are encouraged to apply what they've learned during the week," Eddings stated. She consistently shows her students the end product that they can work towards out of the knowledge they receive, which could be in the shape and form of web design or game development. "I remember having a student who was able to recreate the user-interface of a bridal website by the end of an after-school program!" Eddings proclaimed, "We want to teach children to become the producers of technology and not only consumers of technology."

About Exro Technologies Inc.

Exro is a Clean Tech company that has developed a new class of control technology for electric powertrains. Exro's advanced motor control technology, our "Coil Driver", expands the capabilities of electric motors and powertrains. The Coil Driver enables two separate torque profiles within a given motor. The first is calibrated for low speed and high torque, while the second provides expanded operation at high speed. The ability to change configuration allows efficiency optimization for each operating mode, resulting in overall reductions in energy consumption. The controller automatically and seamlessly selects the appropriate configuration in real time so that torque demand and efficiency are optimized.

The limitations of traditional electric machines and power technology are becoming more evident. In many increasingly prominent applications, traditional methods cannot meet the required performance. This means either oversizing the equipment, adding additional motors, or implementing heavy mechanical geared solutions. Exro offers a new solution for system optimization through implementation of its technology which can yield the following results: increased drive cycle efficiency, reduced system volume, reduced weight, expanded torque and speed capabilities. Exro allows the application to achieve more with less energy consumed.

Leading Oncologists, Supportive Care Experts, and Patient Advocates Discuss Importance of Supportive Care for Cancer Patients and Address Debilitating Diarrhea Resulting from Cancer Therapy

Virtual Event and Q&A 3:00 PM to 4:30 PM EDT on October 20

Registration Open Now for Financial and Business Community

SAN FRANCISCO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / September 24, 2020 / Jaguar Health, Inc. (NASDAQ:JAGX), a commercial stage pharmaceuticals company focused on discovering, developing, and commercializing novel, plant-based, non-opioid, and sustainably derived prescription medicines, today announced it will hold its first "Diarrhea Dialogues" virtual event on October 20 from 3:00 PM to 4:30 PM ET. The event, open to the financial and business community, will address the importance of supportive care for cancer patients as it relates to chronic lower GI tract distress, specifically with regard to debilitating diarrhea experienced as a result of cancer therapy.

Participating in the virtual event will be Jaguar leadership and distinguished oncologists and patient advocates, including:

Lisa Conte, Jaguar Health Founder and CEO
Pravin Chaturvedi, PhD, Jaguar Health acting Chief Scientific Officer and Chair of Scientific Advisory Board
Kim Thiboldeaux, CEO of the Cancer Support Community
DeeDee Jonrowe, four-time Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race champion and breast cancer survivor
Lee Schwartzberg, MD, FACP, Chief Medical Director of West Cancer Center and Chief Medical Officer for OneOncology
Eric Roeland, MD, FAAHPM, Assistant Professor of Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital
Other leading oncologists and researchers, that will be announced at a later date

Participants will address the impact of diarrhea on cancer patients; common side effects of cancer therapies and management of symptoms; data and anecdotal information on the instance of diarrhea in cancer patients along with comparisons to chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV); and the importance of the patient and physician dialogue to the management of cancer therapy-related diarrhea (CTD).

"Over the last decade, diarrhea among cancer patients and cancer survivors has become a growing and prevalent problem, impacting a patient's quality of life and cancer treatment. This is likely related to the fact that we now have many more anti-cancer agents that affect the gastrointestinal lining and mucosa, causing diarrhea," said Lee Schwartzberg, MD, FACP, Chief Medical Director of West Cancer Center and Chief Medical Officer for OneOncology. "In fact, more than half of the cancer patients I treat with newer targeted therapies, report diarrhea as their number one issue caused by their cancer treatment that seriously impacts their lives."

A growing number of novel "targeted cancer therapy" agents, such as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) antibodies and tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), with or without cycle chemotherapy agents, have been shown to cause diarrhea in cancer patients. These therapies may activate intestinal chloride ion channel-mediated secretory pathways, leading to increased electrolyte and fluid content in the gut lumen, which results in passage of loose/watery stools (i.e. secretory diarrhea). Diarrhea has been reported as one of the most common side effects of TKIs.

"We are looking forward to hosting this event to raise awareness about the need for supportive care for cancer patients and survivors, specifically related to debilitating diarrhea as a result of cancer therapy," said Lisa Conte, Jaguar's president and CEO. "Attendees will gain a full understanding of the condition, the impact it has on cancer patients and caregivers, and initiatives Jaguar is planning to address this critical health need."

Jaguar's wholly owned subsidiary Napo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Napo") has conducted a preclinical study evaluating the effects of crofelemer (Mytesi®) in providing symptomatic relief of diarrhea associated with neratinib, a common TKI. Napo filed an investigational new drug (IND) application with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the use of Mytesi for prophylaxis and symptomatic relief of diarrhea in adult patients with solid tumors receiving targeted therapy with or without standard chemotherapy (CTD). This IND is now active, and Napo plans to initiate its pivotal trial with crofelemer in CTD in adult solid tumor patients in the fourth quarter of 2020, subject to funding.

Mytesi is a non-opiate, plant-based, chloride ion channel modulating antidiarrheal medicine that is currently FDA approved for the symptomatic relief of noninfectious diarrhea in adult patients with HIV/AIDS receiving antiretroviral therapy. Mytesi has a novel mechanism of action that works locally in the gut by gently and effectively modulating and normalizing the flow of water and electrolytes with minimal systemic absorption.

Registration for October 20th Diarrhea Dialogues Event

The event, which is exclusively for investors, financial analysts, business media, and business development executives, will be held virtually and include a Q&A segment with Jaguar leadership. Registration required via Zoom. To register, please go to https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_U-3EWd9lS62dNnM7CRuzPA or email Jaguar@TogoRun.com for more information.

Company Expects Fiscal Q4 2020 Revenue to Increase 14% to 17% Sequentially and to Achieve Positive Adjusted EBITDA For the First Time in Three Years
Company Reiterates Fiscal Q4 2020 Cash SG&A Guidance of $6.5 Million to $7.5 Million

CYPRESS, CA / ACCESSWIRE / September 24, 2020 / KushCo Holdings, Inc. (OTCQX:KSHB) (''KushCo'' or the ''Company''), the premier provider of ancillary products and services to the legal cannabis and CBD industries, today reported preliminary and unaudited financial results for its fiscal fourth quarter ended August 31, 2020.

KushCo expects its preliminary and unaudited fiscal fourth quarter 2020 revenue to be between approximately $25.5 million and $26.0 million, compared to approximately $22.3 million in its fiscal third quarter 2020, which represents an improvement from its previously disclosed guidance of between $24.0 million and $26.0 million. The 14% to 17% expected sequential increase in revenue is being driven primarily by an increase in sales to the Company's top 100 customers, which consist of leading multi-state operators (MSOs), licensed producers (LPs), and brands.

The Company also expects its preliminary and unaudited fiscal fourth quarter 2020 cash SG&A expenses (which represent SG&A expenses excluding non-cash expenses, such as bad debt expense, stock-based compensation, depreciation, and amortization) to be between $6.5 million and $7.5 million, which is consistent with the Company's previously disclosed financial guidance.

In addition, the Company expects adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal fourth quarter 2020 to be preliminarily between $0.25 million and $0.75 million, which represents an improvement from its previously disclosed guidance of between ($1.0) million and $1.0 million.

"Fiscal Q4 2020 was arguably the most pivotal quarter in KushCo's entire 10-year history, as we returned to growth, executed on our strategic plan, and achieved our first quarter of positive adjusted EBITDA in more than three years," said Nick Kovacevich, KushCo's Co-founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "On behalf of the entire leadership team, I could not be more proud of our KushCo family, who embraced our spirit and track record of overcoming significant challenges, and who came together in a time of immense difficulty to turn around the business and get us to the much healthier and promising position we believe we are in today. From right-sizing our cost structure, streamlining our inventory and consolidating our warehouses to refocusing on our core customers, tightening our credit standards and improving our collections activity, we are thrilled to have delivered on the initiatives we said we were going to deliver, giving us a solid foundation to continue growing our business profitably moving forward. We realize there is still a lot of work to be done, but we are encouraged with the substantial progress we have made, especially when considering the challenging, but constructive, journey we underwent in fiscal 2020, starting with the illicit market vape crisis and culminating with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Looking ahead, we will continue to focus on aligning deeper with-and cross-selling more to-the large and creditworthy MSOs, LPs, and leading brands, who appear more poised than ever to reap the lion's share of the benefits from the industry's next stage of expansion."

The Company ended the fiscal quarter and year with approximately $10.5 million in cash, and did not draw on its revolving credit facility during the fiscal quarter.

The preliminary results described in this press release are preliminary and unaudited and are subject to change based on the completion of the Company's normal quarter-end review processes. As a result, these preliminary results may be different from the actual results that will be reflected in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2020 when they are released. KushCo expects to report its complete fiscal fourth quarter and full year 2020 financial results in late October or early November 2020. The Company will announce the date, time and details of its earnings conference call at least a week prior to the call.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release may include predictions, estimates or other information that might be considered forward-looking within the meaning of applicable securities laws. While these forward-looking statements represent the Company's current judgments, they are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect the opinions of the Company's management only as of the date of this release. Please keep in mind that the Company is not obligating itself to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to these forward-looking statements in light of new information or future events. When used herein, words such as: "potential," "look forward," "expect," "anticipate," "project," "should," "believe," or variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in any forward- looking statements made by the Company herein are often discussed in the Company's filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which are available at: www.sec.gov, and on the Company's website, at: www.kushco.com.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes certain non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) financial measures, including cash SG&A and EBITDA. Cash SG&A is calculated by subtracting non-cash expenses, such as bad debt expense, stock-based compensation, depreciation, and amortization from GAAP sales, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses. EBITDA is calculated by adding stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization expense, including intangible asset amortization expense, other (income) expense, net and provision for income taxes to GAAP net income (loss).

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect a comprehensive system of accounting, differ from GAAP measures with the same names and may differ from non-GAAP financial measures with the same or similar names that are used by other companies. The Company computes non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter and year to year. The Company may consider whether other significant items that arise in the future should be excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's operating results primarily because they exclude amounts that are not considered part of ongoing operating results when planning and forecasting and when assessing the performance of the organization. In addition, the Company believes that non-GAAP financial information is used by analysts and others in the investment community to analyze the Company's historical results and in providing estimates of future performance and that failure to report these non-GAAP measures could result in confusion among analysts and others and create a misplaced perception that the Company's results have underperformed or exceeded expectations.

The Company believes the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to cash SG&A and EBITDA are SG&A and net income (loss), respectively The Company has not included in this press release forward-looking SG&A and net income (loss) because such information is not accessible on a forward-looking basis without an unreasonable effort. The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, cash SG&A and EBITDA, to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, SG&A and net income (loss), because not all of the information necessary for a quantitative reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is available to the Company without unreasonable efforts. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures provided without the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding GAAP financial measures.

Travis Nelson, Principal of Colorado Hemp Services, states, "We are overly satisfied with the results we are seeing from watering our plants with HyFrontier Technologies' HyGrO unit. We are approaching harvest soon and we are seeing a much larger flower set. We look forward to testing all the flowers at a certified testing facility to compare cannabinoid profiles after harvest. So far, the leaves on the HyGrO side of the test are greener and the plants are much larger and healthier than Control. We look forward to reporting our numbers after harvest."

Robert DuBose, founder of HyFrontier Technologies states, "We want to thank Mr. Nelson of Colorado Hemp Services for agreeing to conduct this test. Based on all of our previous in-house testing, I was confident the results would be well received and surpass expectations. We can see the importance of hydrogen in cannabis by looking at the chemical structure of CBD (C21H30O2), which shows hydrogen is utilized. The Master Grower completing this Hemp test has stated that the biggest part of the growth should come in the next few weeks. As this test was started mid-grow, it has been agreed to perform a ‘seed-to-harvest' test starting in November where we fully expect the results will further confirm the benefits of our technology."

The company is currently testing its technology on many other applications. Management is looking forward to sharing the results and roll out strategy with the world as soon as possible.
