VANCOUVER, BC / November 5th, 2021 / YDX Innovation Corp (TSXV:YDX)(OTC PINK:YDRMF)(FSE:APY1) (“YDX” or the “Company”) would like to provide an update in connection with ongoing initiatives of the Company and previously announced proposed transaction.
YDreams Global and Hasbro Partnership
In August, a strategic partnership was signed between YDreams Global (“YDreams”), a subsidiary of YDX and market leader in immersive exhibitions, and Hasbro, a leading global play and entertainment company.
With the partnership, YDreams secured license rights to create and produce interactive and immersive playgrounds for the brands: Peppa Pig, PJ Masks, and Play-Doh. Combining world-class design, immersive storytelling, and technology, the combined efforts of Hasbro and YDreams will bring unique and highly innovative projects to the Brazilian market.
Karina Israel, CEO of YDreams Global stated: “This partnership with Hasbro is a milestone for YDreams, which has been working for 2 decades with immersive spaces for children and families. Peppa Pig, PJ Masks, and Play-Doh bring amazing content to produce interactive spaces and are brands loved by children and associated with the highest quality. The result of this partnership will raise the bar for children’s attractions in our country.”
“We are very excited about continuing our relationship with YDreams and delivering great family entertainment to shopping malls throughout Brazil utilizing our beloved brands and characters. We believe that our brands, coupled with YDreams experience, will create high quality and immersive experiences driving guests to visit these malls over and over again”, said Sandra Home, Senior Manager, Location Based Entertainment at Hasbro.
These projects are designed to meet the changing needs of shopping mall networks by creating attractive spaces that connect to the new generation of shoppers, offering spaces not only visually impactful but also highly experiential, interactive, and very entertaining.
With offices in Rio de Janeiro and So Paulo, YDreams Global has executed projects in more than 30 countries, designing projects of international quality and developed experiences for exhibitions and museums in countries such as Russia, Spain, and Portugal. In Brazil, the company launched its first interactive exhibition in 2011, about F1 driver and Brazilian idol Ayrton Senna. Since then, the company has gained visibility with hugely successful projects of public and media such as Tarsila for Children, Landscapes of van Gogh, Niemeyer Life and Work, Mondrian for Children, among others.
Proposed Reverse Takeover and Cease Trade Order
The Company announced, by Press Release dated March 16, 2021, that it had entered a non-binding Letter of Intent (the “LOI”) with Moshun Media Development Corp. (“Moshun”), a non-reporting issuer in British Columbia, with respect to a proposed business combination transaction that would result in the reverse take-over of YDX by Moshun (the “RTO Transaction”). Certain conditions under the LOI, including the execution of a definitive agreement regarding the RTO Transaction, have not been met and, as such, the LOI has expired. However, negotiations in connection with the RTO Transaction are on-going between YDX and Moshun, as the parties continue to rationalize the anticipated post-transaction business operations of the resulting issuer. Additionally, the Company was suspended from trading due to a Cease Trade Order issued by the British Columbia Securities Commission on May 7, 2021, due to the Company’s failure to make timely disclosure in accordance with provincial securities regulation. The Company is presently working to remedy these deficiencies in order to resume trading as soon as possible.
