WINNIPEG, Manitoba, Feb. 01, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kane Biotech Inc. (TSX-V:KNE) (OTCQB:KNBIF), (the
“Corporation” or “Kane Biotech”) is pleased to announce that it has retained Edison Advisors (“Edison”), a global strategic
advisory firm, as the Corporation’s investor relations counsel.
Edison has been engaged to provide investor relations services to Kane Biotech as it works towards its mission
to be a global leader in creating innovative technologies for licensing and product commercialization that breakdown and disperse
biofilms.
Mark Ahrens-Townsend, President & CEO of Kane Biotech, said, "We look forward to leveraging Edison’s strategic
capabilities in capital markets, shareholder communications, and investor marketing. We strongly believe Edison is the right
partner to build a U.S. investor base, composed of both retail and institutional investors."
Peter Molloy, Chief Executive Officer of Edison Group, North America, added, “It’s great to be working with Kane
Biotech, a leader in the expanding biofilms industry. One of the key issues that Edison will be addressing is the lack of
appreciation of the sheer breadth of applications that biofilm resistance is critical in. Kane Biotech’s commitment to developing
technologies and products to meet the demand for safe and effective anti-biofilm compounds for the companion pet and human markets,
as well as commercial, institutional and industrial markets is unmatched, and we believe this message will resonate well with U.S.
investors.”
