Contract Win
Vulcan Industries (AQSE: VULC) is pleased to announce new contract wins for M+G Olympic.
M+G Olympic, the wholly owned subsidiary of Vulcan, has recently won over £500,000 of new contracts for the installation of its new range of swimming pools. These installations range from 50m Olympic size municipal swimming pools to smaller private leisure pools.
Increased demand for leisure facilities during Covid-19 lockdowns has seen a significant increase in demand for bespoke swimming pool installations and M+G Olympic is perfectly positioned as one of the leading EXC2 certified designers, manufacturers and installers of custom built architectural metalwork specifically for swimming pools.
In addition, M+G Olympic has been short-listed for the prestigious "CE East Midlands building project and innovation of the year award" for its work on the landmark restoration and transformation of the Derby Silk Mill into the Museum of Making.
The Museum is the first of its kind to use the Integrated Project Insurance ("IPI"), the UK Governments new construction model of procurement. The Museum of Making is expected to attract around 140,000 visitors per year. M+G Olympic worked closely with both Lyon Architects and main construction contractor Speller Metcalf to create contemporary steel staircases, balustrades and walkways, which are sympathetic to the historical features of the Silk Mill whilst meeting the stringent safety requirements of a public attraction. The 16.4m project was supported with funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund, Arts Council of England.
Ian Tordoff, Chairman, commented; "We are delighted by the progress the sales and estimating team are making at M&G. I understand the Silk Mill project team were particularly happy with the work from our drawing office too. As the country recovers we are making changes across the group to ensure Vulcan is fit and ready to meet the growing demand from its customers."

Excellent performance of Genedrive®HCV -ID Kit in large multi-centre study
genedrive plc (AIM: GDR), the near patient molecular diagnostics company, announces the publication of a large independent multi-centre study evaluating the real-world performance of the Genedrive®HCV -ID Kit in low and middle income countries. The study yielded sensitivity specifications of 96.2 – 100%, and specificity specifications of 98.7 – 99.5%, depending on the site or viral load. The results confirm that the Genedrive®HCV -ID Kit is effective as intended in the diagnosis of HCV infection in resource limited settings. Importantly, the authors highlight a test fail rate of only 1.6%, showing that the Genedrive® system performs to this high standard even though the system operators in the study had no previous experience in molecular testing.
The study, published in the journal Diagnostics (Lamoury et al, 2021, 11, 746) was conducted in Georgia and Cameroon, and enrolled 426 participants, which had very different demographic backgrounds. The participants in the Georgia trial were almost all intravenous drug users. Intravenous drug users are a key patient population for HCV infection. The Genedrive sensitivity and specificity results were obtained by comparison to testing with the Abbott RealTime HCV Assay. The publication can be accessed on line at https://www.mdpi.com/2075-4418/11/5/746 . The study was conducted by The Foundation for Innovative New Diagnostics (FIND), with grant funding provided by Unitaid.
The study's findings also corroborate other key performance capabilities of the Genedrive®HCV -ID Kit, including the ability of the kit to identify all major HCV genotypes, the utility of requiring small volumes of plasma, and the lack of hazardous chemicals in the Genedrive kits construction, allowing for normal disposal processes versus competitor products that require heat incineration.
David Budd, Chief Executive Officer of genedrive plc, said: "This study is the first large scale, independent multi centre evaluation from low and middle income markets using the Genedrive HCV test. While the performance results are as expected and excellent, it is equally gratifying to see these achieved with operators with no previous experience in molecular testing. Moving testing from highly complex and automated central hospital settings towards more simple decentralised settings is a balance of technological complexity, cost, performance, and usability, which is not always an easy balance to achieve. This study is an excellent demonstration of real world performance and the ability of Genedrive to contribute to fighting HCV in resource limited settings."
The Genedrive® HCV -ID Kit allows for decentralised molecular testing of Hepatitis C (HCV) by PCR, providing results within 90 minutes direct from a small plasma sample (30 µl). This allows for testing to be done outside of a large hospital facility and indeed while a patient may be waiting for a result. The assay is performed on the Genedrive® platform, the only truly portable molecular diagnostics system designed for diagnosing HCV at the point of need.

YouGov Safe: Redefining the possibilities of online customer data
for consumers and clients
· Fully opt-in, GDPR & CCPA compliant data marketplace, which places the power over personal data in the hands of the consumer
· Takes customer profiling to the next level by seeing the reality of what consumers stream, search for and purchase online across devices and platforms
· Combines observed online behaviours and transactions with attitudinal insights from YouGov's flagship YouGov Profiles tool to provide three-dimensional consumer intelligence data
YouGov, the international research and data analytics group, has launched YouGov Safe – a fully opt-in, GDPR & CCPA compliant, ethical cross-device tracker and data marketplace. YouGov Safe will provide media owners, brands and agencies with a transparent view of consumers' verified online behaviours and transactions and reward consumers for choosing to share their data.
YouGov Safe is the latest innovative data enhancement to the YouGov platform – providing next-level customer profiling, by observing what the public is actually consuming and purchasing online, adding further depth to reported behaviour data the industry currently uses. This, combined with attitudinal insights from YouGov Profiles, provides truly connected 3D consumer intelligence data.
In keeping with YouGov's ethos of providing value for individuals, YouGov Safe places the power over personal data directly in the hands of the consumer. YouGov Safe enables members to securely store data that companies, platforms and institutions hold on them, and then share it with selected third parties anonymously or on a case-by-case approval basis. It forms a data marketplace for the user, empowering them to choose exactly what information is shared and with whom. Members receive points that count towards a cash payment every time they allow a new company to have an interaction with their data.
The first available output from the product is data from major international streaming platforms and services. Additionally, YouGov Safe can already provide online retail data and users' browsing history. In the near future, this will expand to include banking, gaming and health data.
Because of the ethical and fully-permissioned way it has been designed, YouGov Safe means brands, media owners and agencies can get a more complete view of consumers in a number of ways:
· Target based on browser history, banking data, actual shopping habits, 'micro-influencer' status and more
· Conduct unrivalled seed marketing at a granular level
· Get visibility on the marketing-to-purchase funnel, understanding marketing ROI based on verified purchases
· Target and re-contact individual members with 1:1 panel access
· Strategise and innovate with competitor research on a product level
· Access global cross-platform streaming viewership and shopping data to compare and contrast habits
· Find optimal sponsorship deals based on purchase journeys, such as matching brands with influencers, studios with products
· Access social media user behavioural data to target fans of particular pages, followers of celebrities/brands based on engagements
· Create audience segments of verified subscribers, survey watchers/listeners of specific shows to compare and contrast viewership across platforms and markets
Hamish Brocklebank, Head of YouGov Safe: "For too long consumers, brands, agencies and media owners have been let down by online behavioural and transaction data. YouGov Safe changes the game for everyone. For consumers, it is the opportunity to have the power over their personal data – deciding what to share, doing it in a secure way and getting value for it. For clients, YouGov Safe takes customer profiling to another level – understanding their audience's full journey across devices – whether it is streaming, gaming, shopping, or other online activity – and connecting it to YouGov's rich attitudinal data. YouGov Safe redefines the possibilities of connected customer data for both consumers and clients."

Crimson Tide agrees three year SaaS contract with
World Federation of Haemophilia
Crimson Tide ("Crimson Tide" or "the Company" (AIM:TIDE), the provider of mpro5 is pleased to announce that it has signed a three year agreement with the World Federation of Haemophilia (WFH). This follows the successful completion of the pilot phase announced by the Company on January 26, 2021.
The agreement will initially enable up to 100 clinicians globally to use mpro5 to scan pharmaceuticals, verifying their expiry and authenticity, and allowing the WFH to gain real-time insights into product usage. The mpro5 platform will be integrated into WFH's DPUMS system enabling real-time data captured from mpro5 to be available to all users around the world, replacing the ineffective existing paper-based data input..
mpro5 provides barcode scanning, data analysis, and cloud-based services via Microsoft Azure, renowned for its reliability, scalability and security. This enables real-time information, automated alerting, and integration capabilities with the existing systems of the WFH, driving a more efficient, transparent, and safer supply chain. mpro5 has been used in healthcare for many years in the verification and patient management for the National Coagulation Centre (NCC) in Ireland. It has also been used in verification of counterfeit drugs for the World Health Organisation in Africa and Asia.
The WFH is based in Montreal, Canada and its vision is that of Treatment for All and that one day, all people with a bleeding disorder will enjoy a more certain future filled with promise, no matter where they live. The mission of the WFH is to improve and sustain care for people with inherited bleeding disorders around the world. In order to achieve this, the organisation actively pursues long-term relationships with individuals and organizations who share the values inherent in their comprehensive development model.
Barrie Whipp, Executive Chairman of Crimson Tide, said: "We are delighted that we have been able to demonstrate the unique qualities of mpro5 to the WFH in such a short space of time. This supports our belief that there are significant opportunities to use our solutions throughout the wider healthcare sector and to help deliver improved patient outcomes. We look forward to working with the WFH and supporting them in their outstanding work."

Biome wins further funding for its biodegradable tree shelter project
Biome's Bioplastics division ( www.biomebioplastics.com ) announces that it has secured £248,000 via a further funding contract to complete the development phase and reach commercial production of its biodegradable tree shelter project. This follows the Company's successful completion of an initial feasibility study to develop and test a new generation of biodegradable tree shelters to be made from the Company's novel bioplastics.
This additional funding has come from the Government-backed Innovate UK agency as part of the Sustainable Innovation Fund (SBRI Phase 2) and will support a significant increase in project activity and facilitate further extensive laboratory testing of materials and UK-wide field trials with potential end-customers for the novel biodegradable tree shelters.
In the UK, around 45 million trees are planted each year, most of those using non-biodegradable tree shelters for protection, with an estimated 2,500 tons of persistent plastics ending up annually in the natural environment after use. Plans to significantly increase tree planting as part of the UK's drive to mitigate climate change will exacerbate these problems. This project aims to curb such unnecessary levels of plastic pollution with a product that biodegrades in-situ after use.
The project continues in close partnership with Suregreen, a leading manufacturer of tree shelters, whose team has broad experience in the manufacture and sales of such products. Suregreen will involve its forestry customers in product assessment of the biodegradable tree shelters.
Paul Mines, Biome Technologies' Chief Executive Officer, commented:
"This additional funding will help accelerate both the laboratory and 'real-world' testing of this exciting new product, moving it a step closer to large scale commercialisation."
Investors can find more details on this project's scientific approach and its future path to prospective commercialisation in a short video on the Bioplastics division's website: https://biomebioplastics.com/tree-shelter/ .
