About Hepatitis C

Hepatitis C (HCV) is an international public health challenge, comparable to other major communicable diseases, including HIV, tuberculosis and malaria. It is estimated that 150-200 million people, or approximately 3% of the world's population, are living with chronic HCV, and more than 350,000 people die yearly from HCV related diseases. In 2016, WHO published the first global health sector strategy on Hepatitis with a goal of eliminating viral hepatitis as a major public health threat by 2030. New oral, well-tolerated treatment regimens can achieve cure rates of over 90% however access to rapid, inexpensive and accurate diagnostics are a critical bottleneck that must be addressed to eradicate HCV.

Bet90 sponsorship FPF Brazil

 

 

The board of Veltyco Group plc (AIM:VLTY), the online marketing company for the gaming industry, is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, Bet90 Sports ltd ("Bet90"), has entered into a sponsorship agreement with LAOLA1 Multimedia GmbH, trading as LAOLA1.tv in Brazil, where Bet90 will act as sponsor of the Federação Paulista de Futebol ("FPF"), one of the largest football federations in Brazil, for the 2018 football season. The agreement includes a digital partnership, where Bet90 will receive a guaranteed amount of advertising impressions in Brazil, during the contract period.

This agreement allows Bet90 to enter the South American market, a strategy which was communicated in the Company's announcement of 28 June 2017, by investing in one of the most valuable sponsorship rights in Brazil and entering into and strategic partnership with one of the largest football federations in the host country of the 2014 Football World Championship. 

With all the assets included, the sponsorship will provide significant media (and in-stadium) coverage  during the 2018 FPF season which, as 2018 is a World Championship year in Russia, and Brazil is expected to be a leading competitor, the Company believes will be extremely valuable.

FPF, with more than 400,000 active players at over 110 clubs, hosts over 1,000 games per season, including Paulista A1, A2 and the Copa São Paulo Junior. With this partnership, due to the TV coverage, Bet90 will reach approximately 9.3 million households and 37 million people directly. In addition, there will be a strong focus on digital activation, where FPF already reaches more than half a million people in Brazil.

Due to this sponsorship, Bet90 can proudly announce that it will be Official Sponsor of FPF and, as such, be recognized during all Paulista A1, A2 and Copa São Paulo Junior games, including presence on all official league materials as well as having promotion activities at all of the games in the abovementioned competitions.

David Mathewson, Chairman, commented: "We are very excited about entering the Brazilian market having agreed terms with respect to this sponsorship agreement. It will allow us to further expand our business into new markets with high-growth potential."

Concepta plc ("Concepta" or the "Company")

 

myLotus Fertility Product – China Update

 

Concepta plc (AIM: CPT), the pioneering UK healthcare company and developer of a proprietary platform and suite of products targeted at the personalised mobile health market with a primary focus on women's fertility and specifically unexplained infertility, is pleased to announce a positive update on the launch of its proprietary myLotus product in its first international market, China. 

 

Distribution Agreements

 

The Company has signed an additional two 3-year exclusive distribution agreements for its myLotus fertility product with Huanzhong Biotech Ltd and Wanma Technology Co., Ltd in China. 

 

The distribution agreement with Huanzhong Biotech Ltd will cover the province of Hebei near Beijing, while Wanma Technology Co., Ltd will cover the Shanghai area. Alongside ThinkBrio, which distributes the myLotus product to Beijing and Lianoing, these two agreements will expand Concepta's product offering in China to target a total population of 147 million people across these regions.

Dr Yin Hui Rong, principal investigator at the Changhai Hospital Reproductive Centre,commented on the Company's myLotus product: "I have been impressed with the performance of myLotus. This small, hand-held device is providing results that are comparable to large laboratory equipment. It opens up the opportunity for more flexibility in large and smaller hospitals but also for the women at home."

Hospital evaluation results

 

Concepta has completed a preliminary hospital evaluation process in China to extend the use of the Company's myLotus product into early pregnancy monitoring. Based on recent positive hospital evaluation results, the Company's new distributors, Huanzhong Biotech Ltd and Wanma Technology will be the first to target the 'early pregnancy' group alongside the 'unexplained infertility' target group. There is a total target market of 2.3 million women a year across the Hebei, Beijing, Lianoing and Shanghai areas for early pregnancy monitoring.

 

Erik Henau, CEO commenting on the Company's hospital evaluation and new distribution agreements said: "We are delighted to add these new distributors to our network in China, following the Company's excellent preliminary hospital evaluation results. Following the final conclusion of the evaluation, an event will be held in China for a large number of potential distributors where we will exhibit the myLotus product. We expect to announce further distribution agreement signings following this event."

 

Collaboration with The British Bid

 

The Company is also pleased to announce the publication of a corporate video, which was broadcast on the BBC World Service on 26 September 2017 and is now available to view online.

 

myLotus addresses fertility issues that are prevalent throughout the world. Whilst focused on its initial launch in China, Concepta will be able to raise its international profile in collaboration with The British Bid, a global initiative designed to demonstrate the best in British business to ultimately generate new growth via overseas trade. It provides British businesses with a platform to be a voice of excellence for their industry across the globe.

 

From outside of the UK, the corporate video made in collaboration with The British Bid is now available to watch on BBC.com (http://www.bbc.com/storyworks/the-british-bid/concepta), while from the U.K., it is available to watch on Concepta's website: www.conceptaplc.com

 

Eric Henau commented: "To realise the potential of the unique myLotus product requires organic growth as well as collaborative deals. Initiatives such as The British Bid are invaluable for attracting potential partners which can aid the Company's organic growth as it continues to develop its myLotus product."

About Concepta Plc:

 

Concepta plc is a pioneering UK healthcare company that has developed a proprietary platform and products targeted at the personalised mobile health market with a primary focus on women's fertility and specifically unexplained infertility*.

 

Founded in 2013, Concepta has developed a revolutionary flagship product 'MyLotus' for home self-testing that helps women with unexplained infertility to conceive.  

 

MyLotus is the only consumer product which allows both quantitative and qualitative measurements of measurement of a woman's personal hCG and LH hormone levels in an easy to use home test to facilitate higher conception rates and early diagnosis of any fertility problems.  Competitor products currently only allow qualitative measurement and are based on the 'average woman'.  

 

Concepta has a defined route to market for its new 'My Lotus' product with Regulatory approvals for launch in China in place for 2016 and CE-Marking for UK and Europe to follow in 2017 where the revenue potential of the Chinese and EU infertility market is worth c.£600m per annum for the company.

 

*Unexplained infertility refers to women that have been unable to conceive after 6 months of trying. This highly motivated target group of consumers won't typically be offered medical intervention until 12 months of unsuccessfully trying, with IVF not offered until two years. Research indicates couples start to take positive action ahead of this time and there is little medical support to help them do so.

Channl Partnership Agreement

 

Altitude Group plc (AIM: ALT), the operator of a leading marketplace for personalised products, is pleased to announce that it has enhanced and extended its partnership agreement with AI Mastermind ("AIM"), a leading buying group serving 1,400 promotional product resellers in the US. The highlights of the new agreement include:

 

·    Altitude's comprehensive CRM and sales order management system being integrated with the Channl ecommerce platform enabling AIM's members to benefit from an industry specific, cloud based, end-to-end order management system

 

·    the integrated system will allow both ecommerce and non-ecommerce transactions to be processed through Channl

 

·    the platform will be provided to AIM for free with Altitude receiving a share of the throughput revenue from both ecommerce and non-ecommerce transactions

 

·    active engagement with and education of AIM with respect to the benefits available to all stakeholders by using the Channl platform will incentivise AIM to roll out the Channl model to its 1,400 distributor members resulting in faster and more comprehensive take-up of Channl by end users

 

·    the partnership agreement has been extended to September 2020

 

Since the initial partnership was announced in August 2016, Altitude has created over 950 Channl websites for the 1,400 AIM distributor members, each of whom are substantial distributors in the US with revenues ranging from an estimated $0.5 million to $3 million. In total the 1,400 AIM distributors account for an estimated $1.2 billion of end user revenue. The websites are ready to use and, while the 1,400 AIM members are aware of their existence and the potential of Channl's capabilities, the initial feedback from them was that it needed to be integrated with a powerful CRM and order management tool. The extension to the partnership announced today will add both of these to the existing Channl platform and AIM will be actively working with their members to ensure that they are educated as to Channl's improved capabilities and to ensure that they understand the benefits available to them by adopting the platform going forwards.

 

Peter Hallett, Executive Chairman of Altitude, commented: "We are delighted to have enhanced and extended our Channl partnership with AI Mastermind. This upgrade to the offering is the result of months of collaborative work and we are confident that this fully integrated platform will provide the end-to-end service required by the distributors and end users while at the same time providing the necessary incentives to ensure that all stakeholders benefit from encouraging engagement throughout the order chain.

REACT Group plc (AIM: REAT), the specialist provider of rapid response deep cleaning and emergency decontamination services, is pleased to announce that the Company has been awarded a £0.2 million contract. The contract, with a major Facilities Management company, covers provision of cleaning services in a major London hospital.

REACT has secured this contract by working alongside the client and establishing a clear understanding of their needs and delivering against those needs over the last 6 months. This service is a departure from the Company's normal day-to-day fast response service for which REACT has established its reputation over the past years.
