Momentum Public Relations
Press Release: April 20 2018
ATW Tech (“AtmanCo” or the “Company”) (TSX VENTURE:ATW) is proud to announce, as part of its ongoing global partnership with the Einsteinium Foundation (“EMC2”) (refer to press release dated January 12, 2018) that the first phase of its implementation has been completed for the integration of blockchain technology into its various platforms, which include voting, gaming and fundraising. ATW Tech’s subsidiary, Voxtel, has begun accepting the cryptocurrency as a payment solution on its unified payment platform.
Alongside the other channels of distribution and development targeted such as the further integration on Voxtel’s payment gateway to buy, exchange or transfer Einsteinium coins, and peer-to-peer network gaming, being a leader in mobile political voting and mobile fundraising in Canada, Voxtel will also focus on the political arena and is planning to launch crypto contributions in the Fall of 2018.
“We’ve been looking at crypto for quite some time,” says Michel Guay, CEO of ATW Tech, adding that: “Many organizations are getting in on the cryptocurrency craze for example to fund political campaigns and we want to be the first facilitator.”
“Using Einsteinium for fundraising efforts has the distinct advantage of creating transparency in an area where it is needed most.” says Ben Kurland, Chief Strategist of the Einsteinium Foundation. “Furthermore, it can be far more efficient than other payment solutions due to its speed, security and ability to be transferred internationally.”
Einsteinium is a blockchain currency designed to democratize research funding. The Einsteinium Foundation which maintains the currency and furthers its utility and adoption, is due to launch a crowdfunding platform to promote scientific research in June. Other recent developments include a social mobile wallet and the first annual Einsteinium Awards set to take place in September.

Relevium Operational Update and Investments for Financial H1 2018
Momentum Public Relations
Press Release: February 28 2018
Relevium Technologies Inc. (TSX VENTURE:RLV)(OTCQB:RLLVF)(FRANKFURT:6BX) (the “Company” or “Relevium”), is reporting on an operational update and areas of investment for financial Q2 2018 (October 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017).
Aurelio Useche, President and CEO of Relevium stated: “The integration, optimization and scale up of BioGanix since acquisition has gone as expected.” Mr. Useche continued: “Operationally we expected a learning curve and expected to overcome all challenges. I think the Operations Team has overcome all challenges and the Company is poised to drive growth in the 2018 calendar year. The e-commerce landscape for nutraceuticals is under constant change and we have been quick on our feet to adapt and maintain sales velocity.”
During the first six (6) months of operating BioGanix, the Company has focused on transitioning the business, accounts and assets. Following the successful transition which lasted until roughly November 1, 2017, the Company built up an internal Operations Team which subsequently set forth to optimize the business predominantly through conceptualization and deployment of the Mach 2.0 Marketing Engine. During this period, the Company did experience a temporary decrease in revenue.
Since October 1, 2017 the Company has invested over CAD $250,000 for building out the infrastructure and acquiring the talent necessary to drive future growth of the BioGanix brand. These investments in technology, people and commercial agreements will also be integral in allowing the Company to execute on the plethora of product and brand launches it has planned for the 2018 calendar year.
The Company expects to launch no less than three (3) new brands and over twenty (20) new products or SKUs in 2018. Launches will begin as soon as March 2018. The Company will provide further detail to this effect in a forthcoming news release.
Mr. Abis Hussain, Senior Marketing Officer of Relevium Technologies: “We are really excited to start launching products. The Company has yet to launch products that fully reflect our collective efforts. The products that we will bring to market this year will really show our ability to find and market exclusive products. Prior to this, everything being marketed was part of the classic line launched by the previous BioGanix team. We believe our true colors and grit are about to shine.”
About Relevium Technologies
Relevium is a TSXV-listed company focused on growth through the acquisition of businesses, products and/or technologies with a focus on e-commerce in the growing health and wellness sector. Relevium Technologies Inc. also holds patented intellectual property for the use of static magnetic fields for application on wearable devices.
Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
Relevium Technologies Inc. has provided further clarifications on its press release from earlier on Feb. 23, 2018.
The company has received several requests from active shareholders to clarify ambiguity in the language of the operational press release from earlier in the day.
Aurelio Useche, president and chief executive officer of Relevium, stated, “The company is very appreciative of the feedback from its shareholders who asked us to provide clarity over the press release.”
The first six months of operations have been successful in all fronts, including sales revenue, which have continued to demonstrate an overall positive direction ahead of previous periods.
The company did highlight in the previous news release a revenue decline, which was in reference to the month of November. The decline was related to product adjustments and changes in marketing costs due to the implementation of the automation process. However, overall revenues for the six-month period were on target.
The following is a summary of the message that was intended by the company to communicate to shareholders:
- The integration, optimization and scale-up of BioGanix since acquisition have been successful and as expected. The transition period included an expected learning curve, and the operating team has done very well in meeting the challenge.
- Sales revenues are on target and ahead of last year’s results by the previous ownership.
- The company has made several important investments, not only to optimize current operations, but also to prepare the team for organic and acquisition-based growth.
The following were also important updates management felt key to convey to its shareholder base:
- The eventual launch of three new brands, the culmination of the successful exclusivity agreements entered into by the company during the reporting;
- The launch of over 20 new products or SKUs (stock-keeping units) in 2018 expected to hit the shelves as soon as March, 2018.
Management looks forward to reporting Q2 2018 financial results next week.

Biggest U.S. Companies Setting More Renewable-Energy Targets
Biggest U.S. Companies Setting More Renewable-Energy Targets
-
Corporations bought 2.5 gigawatts of clean energy last year
-
Fortune 500 companies saving $3.7 billion with clean power
Almost half of the biggest U.S. companies have established clean-energy targets for themselves, according to a report Tuesday from sustainable investors and environmental groups including the World Wildlife Fund.
It’s not just the biggest U.S. companies — 44 percent of the smallest 100 members of the Fortune 500 have also set goals, up from 25 percent in 2014, and 48 percent of the entire list.
Many are finding that renewable energy isn’t just cleaner, it’s also often cheaper. About 190 Fortune 500 companies collectively reported about $3.7 billion in annual savings, according to Power Forward 3.0, a report by WWF, Ceres, Calvert Research & Management and CDP.
“We’re not talking about anecdotal information anymore,” Marty Spitzer, a WWF senior director of climate and renewable energy in Washington, said in an interview. “We’re talking about large, large savings.”
Potential savings and sustainability goals prompted corporations to buy almost 3.7 gigawatts of power generated by clean-energy projects in 2015, and another 2.5 gigawatts last year, almost all from wind and solar, according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance.
But it’s no longer just tech companies. About 63 percent of Fortune 100 companies have clean-energy targets, according to the report. Such targets include commitments to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions and increase energy efficiency and renewable energy.
The 190 Fortune 500 companies reported emission reductions equivalent to mothballing 45 coal-fired power plants for a year, according to the report. It also found that 23 of Fortune 500 companies have 100 percent renewable-energy targets.

Stakeholder Alignment – A Predictor of Success in Green Technologies
Stakeholder Alignment – A Predictor of Success in Green Technologies
Pundits and prognosticators should take notice. The evidence points to an emerging reality that is leading the so-called green technology revolution. Futurists and visionaries may be looking for some incredible and revolutionary breakthrough, but a variety of compelling new technologies are already being commercialized.
Green energy technologies are those that either harness power from renewable, sustainable sources or aim to reduce adverse human impact on the environment. For new sources of energy to be widely implemented, investors, technologists, and policymakers must understand their potential impact and the path to market that will ensure their commercial viability. Many new technologies can be successful if they are deployed according to sound business principles.
While some allegedly green technologies are struggling to gain traction with businesses and consumers, others are quietly changing the world and addressing the need for responsible and functional solutions to complex environmental challenges.
So, where are these technologies, who is behind them and why are they quietly seizing momentum in the marketplace? The answers are remarkably simple. Like most advances over the course of history, they are conceptually simple, relatively inexpensive and only modestly disruptive.
The automobile is an example of change that occurred at the onset of the 20th century. It harnessed an older technology of propulsion but applied it in a different format. With the advent of mass production, overall costs per unit were reduced and the technology became widely affordable. Additionally, it did not usher in an entirely new mode of transport. It only eliminated the need for an animal to provide propulsion and made travel a modest amount more rapid and marginally more reliable.
As we head towards the conclusion of the first 20 years of the 21st century, the keen observer will be able to identify technologies that have moved from ideas to commercial reality and are quickly going mainstream. Several may be below the radar at the moment, but they won’t stay there for long.
Green technologies are not immune from the ordinary laws that govern business success. The idea that some “better mouse trap” will sell itself is as false as it is comedic. The business success comes from being well capitalized, having a superior value proposition and ensuring that business leadership is equipped and motivated to execute against objectives in a disciplined and systematic manner. If the product or service is ground breaking, wonderful. Who doesn’t love something that is groundbreaking? But does it deliver what I want?
This raises the important principle of stakeholder alignment. If a new technology can align the interests of several disparate interested parties in an industry sector, it has a particularly good chance for success. Stakeholder alignment creates unstoppable momentum for green technologies. In most instances, being more eco-friendly, while desirable, isn’t the primary motivator of change. However, when a number of constituencies all experience a simultaneous benefit that is both measurable and meaningful, change proceeds and the adoption of the new technology is perceived as essential rather than optional.
An example of stakeholder alignment is a fast-growing Hawaiian enterprise called Elevate Structure. It was launched in 2012 by a team of residential engineers in with a dream to develop profitable spaces for living by building eco-friendly structures. The portable spaces are elevated above ground and, therefore, utilize 6-20 times more usable space while minimizing the overall footprint on the ground. This uses less than desirable land, gives consumers the flexibility to expand or relocate their green homes and provides municipalities with new incremental tax revenues without adding infrastructure.
Another good example of stakeholder alignment is International Wastewater Systems of Vancouver, Canada, http://www.sewageheatrecovery.com. Employing a simple idea and proprietary technology, IWS has pioneered the concept of turning the energy contained in warm waste water into heat that is processed, reclaimed and reused. With an ingenious idea and a scalable solution, the company is poised for success internationally as its solutions are increasingly in demand. The success of the endeavour isn’t exclusively due to the green technology. It is because the technology has been able to address diverse needs among a broad group that includes energy providers, builders and building owners. The company’s solutions, green technology and ease of implementation presents and unassailable value proposition to anyone who wants to reduce the heating and cooling costs of buildings. The eco-story is largely secondary. The “green argument” involves saving large amounts of money!
Investors that are considering taking a position in new green technologies are advised to look beyond the excitement of a product or process. A company’s financial state is always a consideration. What have they sold and what projects are well underway? As important as these fundamentals are, it is also critical to examine the “alignment factor” of the product or service to properly evaluate the scope of its potential.

The Future is Now: Mobile Couponing Streamlined
Momentum Public Relations
People have been using coupons for as long as the saving’s catalyst has existed. Interestingly, 315 billion coupons-valued at approximately 510 billion dollars-were distributed via all mediums in 2013. What’s more, it is estimated that there will be over a billion mobile coupon users by 2019, which is more than double the amount of digital coupon users in 2014. As can be seen, as technology has evolved over the decades consumers have looked for newer and more convenient ways to save. To address this growing problem Mobi724 was founded. Mobi724 is dedicated to one swipe couponing; a seamless transactional experience whereby consumers are able to enjoy digital promotional incentives-such as loyalty rewards rebates-via their mobile devices. Furthermore, their cutting edge technology provides proprietary payment processing that uses the latest security safeguards.
Interestingly, many enterprises are excited about the ingenuity that Mobi724 brings to the digital realm and are quickly joining in on the mobile couponing revolution. For instance, Mobi724 Global Solutions Inc. (MOS: CSE) recently signed a commercial agreement with Movistar to provide its cutting edge technology to its 17+ million subscribers. (View Press Release) As a result, any of its legions of dedicated subscribers will be able to take full advantage of their smart transactions technology at any point of sale that is operated by a participating retailer.
In terms of the industries that Mobi724s technology is currently targeting, large retailers, telecom providers, and banks are currently their three largest demographics. Of course, this is with good reason, as it will benefit consumers greatly in the long run. Imagine having to do away with a plethora of coupons and loyalty cards-such as Air Miles-by having all of the clutter seamlessly integrated into an existing debit card or credit card. Not only would such an integrated approach greatly convenience consumers around the world but retailers, telecom providers, and banks can also provide the service to entice new customers/clients to do business with them, while delighting existing customers; promoting customer/brand loyalty in the process.
Moreover, as an added bonus, the underlying technology that Mobi724 provides allows for instant, real time tracking of consumer and client behavior; allowing partnering enterprises to collect timely, accurate, and relevant data in regards to their clients’ spending habits and preferences. As a result, companies will be able to send their customers targeted coupons that cater to their unique needs; instead of the mass marketing “shotgun” approach that has left customers embittered and frustrated for the last few decades. Niche is the name of the game, and companies have quickly adapted to “future-tech” by being proactive instead of being passive reactionaries to the fluidity of the capitalist milieu.
In regards to how Mobi724 monetizes its tech, the concern collects a monthly maintenance fee for its integrated service platform as well as a modest percentage in revenue share from each coupon transaction. Furthermore, prognosticators estimate that 10{92d3d6fd85a76c012ea375328005e518e768e12ace6b1722b71965c2a02ea7ce} of the revenue that the company generates in the next 18 to 24 months will come from maintenance fees, while the remaining 90{92d3d6fd85a76c012ea375328005e518e768e12ace6b1722b71965c2a02ea7ce} will be generated via recurring revenue generated by transaction fees.
Given their forward thinking modus operandi, it is evident that their bottom line has ample space to grow exponentially in perpetuity. With new international conglomerates joining forces with Mobi724 with each passing day, and the use of coupons no longer being a taboo in our progressive postmodern zeitgeist, one can only imagine where Mobi724’s market share will be just 5 years from now. The sky is the limit, as Mobi724’s state of the art tech allows for coupons to be validated, consumer/client data to be collected, and relevant discounts to be relayed back to the customer, with a simple card swipe. Why go back to the future when the future is already here?
