I’m very pleased to report that Paul Duffy - who has been with me from the very beginning of the Company - will now serve as Chairman of the Board in my stead. Paul’s vision for Nextech - and for the power of augmented reality in everyday life - is matched only by our own, and we will benefit from his leadership in this capacity”.

Our bench strength in our global team and continued investment in innovation gives us the confidence to deliver on our near and long-term goals. We expect to achieve C$50 million in total revenue this year - with a more favourable revenue mix lumped into the second half of the year and especially the seasonally strong fourth quarter - while demonstrating the scalability of our platforms. The changes we announced today will help us realize our significant growth goals and continued AR leadership position for tomorrow and beyond.”
