#CBD #Stock News: SinglePoint (OTCQB: $SING) Enters JV Agreement to Further Expand and Accelerate Opportunities Due to Increased New Client (Retail and B2B) Demand in #HandSanitizer Market with Simplex + Virus Killer

Worldwide Hand Sanitizer Market to cross USD 3.6 Bn by 2026

Phoenix, Arizona - April 28, 2020 (Investorideas.com Newswire) SinglePoint, Inc. (OTCQB: SING) ramping up effort to meet in bound demand for hand sanitizer and other sanitizing products. The company recently entered into an LOI that quickly progressed to a JV Agreement with Box-Bioscience. The agreement will provide both parties with the capability to enhance supply and expand sales opportunities of hand sanitizer. The product is current sold in a variety of sizes ranging from 2oz to truckloads for bulk supply. With the successful rollout of Klen, SinglePoint has been approached by larger retailers to supply bulk products. This shift has set the stage for a Joint Venture between the two companies to supply hand sanitizer manufactured to the current FDA guidelines. Box has already completed orders with multiple accounts, including segments of Fortune 500 companies around the nation with new sales and inquiries happening daily.

"We are excited to work with SinglePoint to expand and grow our collective business. We have seen multiple Purchase Orders and we expect an increase over the coming months as many retailers and businesses change protocols around sanitizing. This is a true B2B play with nearly all businesses needing hand sanitizer for customers and employee's protection", states Ryan Cowell, Founder Box Bioscience.

Worldwide Hand Sanitation Market is Growing
According to a recent report released by Global Market Insights, Inc on April 27, 2020 the Worldwide Hand Sanitizer Market to cross USD 3.6 Bn by 2026.

·        Growing public awareness about the role of hand sanitizer in personal hygiene will act as a major impact rendering factor for the industry growth.
·        Rising initiatives to promote the use of hand sanitizer will further propel the demand over the forecast years.
·        Increasing government initiatives and favorable regulatory scenarios will flourish the hand sanitizer industry.
·        North America hand hygiene market revenue will expand significantly over the forthcoming years

A New Normal Operating procedure for Retail, Manufacturing, and Business has emerged

Hand sanitizer is currently one of the most out of stock products. Beyond retailers looking for additional inventory there has been a major shift in business purchases including hand sanitizer for employee use, disinfectant use for cleaning tools, carts and other shared items.
From production routines and work schedules to health screenings and visitor policies even manufacturers have been forced to rethink how they operate-and these changes, including frequent hand sanitization will most likely remain even after the current demand recedes. Manufacturers face challenges not found in other work environments. For instance, production employees can't make engines or shampoo from home, and production schedules typically dictate that workers take breaks at set times. Employers are coming up with different ways to observe recommended social-distancing and germ-control guidelines and hand sanitizers are part of that solution for the foreseeable future.

A recent story featured on ABC's Good Morning America on April 22, 2020 titled "Grocery stores see food supplies stabilizing, but don't expect hand sanitizer anytime soon." highlighted the following

·        While grocers and experts claim the food supply is stabilizing, the demand for sanitizer products continues to overwhelm the market.
·        Rationing for items like hand sanitizer will likely continue.

·        All of the grocery stores ABC News spoke with named sanitizers as the products with demand that continues to outstrip supply. Wegmans, along with several other retailers, have implemented purchase limits.

·        "We are seeing better conditions in many categories; however, toilet paper, hand sanitizer and paper products have been slower to rebound," said Maria Brous, spokesperson for Publix, a supermarket chain headquartered in Florida. "For this very reason, customers will still see limits in place across our stores."

The two companies, through the JV, will collaborate to manufacture and distribute sanitizing products. The initial priority has been focused on increasing production and sales of bulk hand sanitizer to meet the current demand. An increasing demand has come from non-traditional retail and well as manufacturing and other service businesses concerned with providing solutions to meet the new safety protocols, these businesses have been or are currently being undeserved to the increased demand. The JV has plans to quickly introduce additional products leveraging the Simplex + Virus Killer brand to potentially include wipes, spray, and nasal spray.

#CryptoCorner: #Bitcoin Highest Since Crash as Halving Approaches, NY Hospitals Join IBM (NYSE: $IBM) #Blockchain-Powered Rapid Supplier Connect


 #CryptoCorner: #Bitcoin Highest Since Crash as Halving Approaches,  NY Hospitals Join IBM (NYSE: $IBM) #Blockchain-Powered Rapid Supplier Connect




Point Roberts, WA, Delta BC April 27, 2020 - Investorideas.com, a leader in crypto and blockchain investing news brings you today’s edition of the Crypto Corner podcast and commentary on what’s driving the cryptocurrency market.

Listen to today’s Crypto Corner Podcast:

Stocks discussed: (NYSE:IBM)

As we enter a new week, Bitcoin (BTC) has emerged from the weekend having built upon gains made late last week amid a crypto market that is currently a mix of red and green, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Trading for around $7,720 at press time, Bitcoin is at its highest since March 12, when it crashed thousands of dollars to around $4,000 alongside traditional markets. An article from CoinDesk chalks this recent rally up to, in part, anticipation for Bitcoin’s halving, which will occur on May 12. Jehan Chu, co-founder and managing partner at blockchain investment and trading firm Keneti Capital, told the publication:

“The rally is being sustained by the rapidly approaching halving. Look for prices to attempt the $10,000 level on speculative buzz leading into the halving.”

Blockchain payments service provider BitPay and crypto exchange giant Binance have partnered to drive adoption of the latter’s BUSD stablecoin. This will see BitPay “enable all of its merchants around the world to accept BUSD as a form of payment online and in its cross border business to business billing platform without additional integration.” Stephen Pair, CEO of BitPay, explained:

“The partnership with Binance is about more than supporting another stablecoin, it is about making cross border payments simple and easy for both businesses by leveraging the global influence of Binance Exchange. With BUSD, BitPay expands blockchain payment choices for all our customers across the global payments space who want the flexibility of paying on the blockchain with the stability of the US dollar.”

Binance has also launched the "Binance Pool", a crypto mining pool today, which offers “Proof of Work (PoW) and Proof of Stake (PoS) services for a variety of coins and tokens.” In an interview with Cointelegraph, the head of Binance Pool Lisa He said:

“We aim to establish a comprehensive platform for miners that will bring more possibilities to the mining industry by bridging traditional mining to financial services.”

Forbes reports that a New York-based healthcare group, Northwell Health, which is composed of more than 800 hospitals, has joined IBM’s (NYSE:IBM) blockchain-powered Rapid Supplier Connect network to purchase from new suppliers for COVID-19 relief. According to the article, IBM launched Rapid Supplier Connect “to link buyers to new suppliers, who have changed their manufacturing process to medical equipment,” and it is part of the company’s “existing Trust Your Supplier Blockchain Network.” Phyllis McCready, Vice President and Chief Procurement Officer at Northwell Health, told Forbes:

"Northwell Health has had adequate supplies to protect patients and our staff during the increase in New York COVID-19 patient cases. It is through creating our own group purchasing organizations (GPOs) and supply chain, and joining forces with non-traditional suppliers that we have maintained an adequate stockpile of personal protection equipment (PPE) and other equipment and supplies, so we are pleased to join IBM Rapid Supplier Connect."

Special Edition #AIEye: VSBLTY Groupe Technologies (CSE: $VSBY.C) (OTC: $VSBGF) CEO Discusses UST Global Agreement and Retail Going Digital; @vsbltyco


  
Special Edition #AIEye: VSBLTY Groupe Technologies (CSE: $VSBY.C) (OTC: $VSBGF) CEO Discusses UST Global Agreement and Retail Going Digital; @vsbltyco



Point Roberts WA, Vancouver BC – April 27, 2020  – Investorideas.com (www.investorideas.com), a global investor news source covering Artificial Intelligence (AI) brings you today’s special edition of the AI Eye, featuring an exclusive interview with the CEO of VSBLTY Groupe Technologies Corp. (CSE:VSBY) (5VS.F) (OTC:VSBGF).

Listen to today’s podcast:


According to Jay Hutton, Co-founder and CEO of VSBLTY Groupe Technologies Corp. (CSE:VSBY) (5VS.F) (OTC:VSBGF), the company’s recently-announced global, multi-product strategic teaming agreement with leading digital transformation solutions company, UST Global, marks a significant milestone as the company’s first integrator deal.

“We’ve done business relationships and business partnerships with companies that are also in the category as vendors – building products with which we connect to or components that we consume – but this is the first integrator we’ve done and frankly, we’ve started at the top,” he said.

This agreement will see the two companies assimilate their solutions and services to meet the digital transformation needs of UST Global’s worldwide customers and clientele. In the press release, UST Global’s GM, Emerging Digital Retail Technology, Subhodip Bandyopadhyay, indicated that his company’s retail clients in particular, “include 12 of the Top 20 Global Retailers.” Hutton explained that UST Global’s position, with respect to retail makes them especially suitable for digital transformation.

“They do a lot in retail, perhaps a third of their business is in retail, and where they’re in it, they integrate point-of-sale systems, back office inventory systems, all the components you would imagine would drive retail from a digital point of view, they plug together.”

Addressing the retail space more broadly, Hutton pointed out the gradual but undeniable trend toward digital.

“Retail has, for many years, been stuck behind,” he said. “I think probably in the last two years we’ve certainly seen significant indicators that retailers are really embracing digital.”

Hutton attributes these developments to gains made by the online experience, principally in the ability to monetize customer data.

“We’re looking at something like 4-5 percent penetration of digital in retail in 2019, exploding to something like 80 percent by 2022,” he said. “So that marketplace is rapidly exploding and is really buoyed, as much as anything, by the experience of the internet. The internet has, if nothing else, created the ability to create advertising impressions and the ability to monetize audiences, and that’s exactly what we’re doing in retail.”

This evolution in the market is something VSBLTY is well-positioned to accommodate with their technologies. Hutton explained the demand for information in the retail space and VSBLTY’s ability to deliver with products like its computer vision-powered DataCaptor™ software.

“From a retailer’s perspective, what you’re interested in is what’s happening in your store,” he said. “You want to know the footfall – the number of people that enter your store – the number of males, females, approximate age range of all your shoppers or consumers, and their movement within the store. We want to know all the components about movement of traffic within the store, including, by the way, because of the [Coronavirus], things like social distancing.”

“All that capability is informed and delivered by VSBLTY’s computer vision product DataCaptor,” he said. “It teaches computers how to interpret, collate and report on the things that they see.”

Beyond meeting the needs of the retailer, Hutton explained that brands themselves stand to benefit from the data captured by VSBLTY’s technology.

“They deploy activations or digital messaging in the store, and they want to measure the performance of those activations,” he said. “In part it’s a return investment.”

“In addition to all the things our systems do in terms of body count, gender, etc… we also measure sentiment. Are people reacting positively or negatively to digital display[s] or digital messaging in store?”

The agreement between VSBLTY and UST Global then appears to be in sync with observable trends in the market. Hutton expressed the inexorability of retail’s going digital, even following the upset brought on by the global Coronavirus pandemic.

“[They’re] rapid changes and they’re coming to a store near you because this is a wave that cannot be held back despite the recent disruption in retail.”

Today’s Column- The AI Eye- Watching stock news, deal tracker and advancements in artificial intelligence

Stocks discussed: (NasdaqGS:AMZN) (KSE:066570)

Amazon Web Services (AWS), a subsidiary of Amazon (NasdaqGS:AMZN), announced the launch of a new region in South Africa. Based in Cape Town, the region allows users to run applications and store their content in South African data centers. Among many other features, AWS offers fully featured services for machine learning and AI. Peter DeSantis, Senior Vice President of Global Infrastructure and Customer Support, AWS, said:

"The cloud is positively transforming lives and businesses across Africa and we are honored to be a part of that transformation. We have a long history in South Africa and have been working to support the growth of the local technology community for over 15 years. In that time, builders, developers, entrepreneurs, and organizations have asked us to bring an AWS Region to Africa and today we are answering these requests by opening the Cape Town Region. We look forward to seeing the creativity and innovation that will result from African organizations building in the cloud."

Korea IT Times reports that LG CNS, a subsidiary of LG Electronics Inc. (KSE:066570), has launched a “face recognition community currency” system combining AI, blockchain and cloud technologies. This enables users to make cryptocurrency transactions upon facial recognition, so as to avoid unnecessary contact. Lee Joon-won, LG CNS Solution Business Development Manager, said:

“It is expected that blockchain-based community currency will be used by a lot more people as it becomes more convenient when it meets AI. As non-face-to-face technologies are applied recently, blockchain that increases transaction reliability will be used more widely.”

The United States Department of Defense (DoD) started Project Maven initiative that aims to bring AI and computer algorithms to war zones. Such investments are fuelling the growth of this segment during the forecast period.
