"With this event, POET intends to launch a renewed investor communications program. We have demonstrated the viability of our Optical Interposer, strengthened our balance sheet with the sale of our DenseLight subsidiary, and begun staffing with veterans from the photonics industry to design and develop products in conjunction with major customers and partners," stated Thomas Mika, EVP & CFO of POET. "We believe that we are at a major inflection point in the Company's recent history and I look forward to presenting on Wednesday."

"We are delighted to be hosting our third virtual event in order to showcase some of the truly unique names in micro-cap" stated Chris Lahiji, President of LD Micro. "There are many people and companies who are unable to attend our live events, due to any number of reasons, so we are happy to offer an additional way for companies to present to investors without taking a lot of time out of their day-to-day operations. While virtual events will never replace the experience of sitting in the same room as other humans, it is a great format for updating the investor community and getting increased exposure."

The conference will be held via webcast and will feature over 40 companies in the small / micro-cap space.
