Gen Z's Buying Power Unlocked Through Influencer Marketing and Gaming

MarketJar

Marketing has come a long way since its early days, but its basic concept remains– to promote a business’s products or services. In the past, marketers relied heavily on impersonal, broad campaigns such as print ads, TV commercials, and billboards. But times have changed and marketing to younger generations is a completely different ballgame. Gen Z already makes up a significant portion of the buyers shopping and purchasing from today’s businesses in every industry. Soon, they’ll become the largest group of consumers in the market overall. The problem is, effectively marketing to this “woke” generation can be challenging. Gen Z consumers have very different life experiences, buying habits, priorities and world views than previous generations. They’re also digital natives, spending an average of 2 hours and 55 minutes per day on social media, more than any other generation The secret weapon to captivating this influential cohort? Influencer marketing. Influencers on platforms like TikTok, Instagram and YouTube are not just entertainment; they play a pivotal role in Gen Z’s decision-making processes with approximately 45% of Gen Z consumers being influenced by these platforms. Just look at how brands like Crocs and Stanley have reinvented themselves through influencer collaborations, proving that direct consumer dialogue can turn a sleepy brand into a viral sensation. Rather than investing heavily in traditional advertising to engage Gen Z, Crocs CEO Terence Reilly tapped into the power of collaboration, allowing its consumers to lead the conversation. The brand partnered with influencers who created content showing their peers how to style the shoes, turning a once-mocked brand into a fashion statement. Reilly used the same technique at Stanley, transforming the 110-year old business into a $750 million titan with a massive social media presence. Video game streamers are also becoming valuable brand ambassadors as Gen Z swaps out traditional sports for video games. Esports, aka competitive video gaming, may have started out as a niche hobby but it has transformed into a global phenomenon and created a new category of celebrity influencers, some of which are signing deals bigger than NBA players. In 2024, the global esports market is expected to reach $2.5 billion in revenues with an audience of over 540 million. Sports teams and brands are taking note, teaming up with video game streamers to expand their audience and revenue streams. A prime example is the NBA 2K League, a professional gaming league centered around the NBA 2K video game series. This league, managed by the NBA, has not only attracted diverse players but also garnered substantial viewership. Several teams, like the Golden State Warriors and the Houston Rockets, own their own NBA 2K League franchises. Even Steph Curry is investing in this hot industry. Another company fully embracing the power of influencer marketing is OverActive Media (TSXV:OAM) (OTC:OAMCF), a global esports and entertainment company catering to today’s generation of fans. Through strategic acquisitions, OverActive Media has created a global esports powerhouse with a noteworthy roster of influencers and brand partnerships. OverActive Media Builds a Worldwide Esports Empire Boasting Over 100 Million Followers OverActive Media is Canada’s largest esports ownership group with a roster of wildly popular professional esports teams with a huge following, including the Toronto Ultra in Call of Duty League, the MAD Lions for the League of Legends EMEA Championship and the Toronto Defiant in the Overwatch Champion Series. OverActive Media (TSXV:OAM) (OTC:OAMCF) just completed the acquisition of Spanish Esports organizations KOI and Movistar Riders, catapulting its presence into rapidly expanding international markets with a treasure trove of unparalleled esports assets and over 100 million followers. KOI, co-founded by Twitch streamer Ibai Llanos and soccer legend Gerard Piqué, quickly became one of Europe's premier brands. Gerard Piqué initiated the Kings League, a highly followed sports channel on digital platforms with over 100 million views in 2023. OverActive Media has secured service contracts with both Ibai and Gerard. Movistar Riders, which competes in popular games such as League of Legends, CS2, VALORANT, and FIFA, brought with it a long-term multimillion dollar partnership with telecom leader Telefónica, which was renewed for another three years following the acquisition. KOI and Movistar are expected to add C$10 million to C$12 million in revenues in 2024 and further bolster OverActive Media 's rising viewership numbers. The newly formed MAD Lions KOI team has already seen record crowds, drawing 741,000 peak viewers in a regular season match during the League of Legends EMEA Championship (LEC) Winter Split in January. This was the highest viewership since summer 2021. Co-founder Ibai also contributed to this momentum, attracting over 4.7 million Twitch views, surpassing the 2.93 million viewers of the Succession series premiere. Another milestone was achieved on February 18 during the LEC, with a record 830,816 viewers, the highest ever for a regular season match. OverActive Media also just received the green light from Riot Games to compete in the VALORANT Champions Tour EMEA 2024 season. The company will operate as Movistar KOI alongside 9 other teams. This participation not only enhances fan engagement and draws in sponsorships but also paves the way for new revenue opportunities.

Innoveren Scientific's (OTCMKTS: IVRN) 510(k) Submission Sparks A New Hope For Patients Living With Chronic Non-Healing Wounds

Benzinga

By Jeremy Golden, Benzinga IVRN has completed a 510(k) submission for its SkinDisc TM Lite and SkinDisc TM regenerative medicine technology. The company says that what differentiates this technology from other regenerative products is the fact that it only requires one application to achieve healing in four to nine weeks and comes packaged as a disposable kit. An aging U.S. population with increasingly complex medical diagnoses has doctors and clinicians under pressure to diagnose and treat patients while restoring their quality of life. With the goal of doing just that, a life science and biotech incubator company is advancing a wound-healing product. Focused on advancing new technologies in areas of unmet need across multiple indications, Innoveren Scientific Inc. This is a significant advancement when compared to current treatment approaches that require weekly applications and can take 12-20 weeks to heal. Generally, people have to apply treatment products every three days before they see any impact. With SkinDisc, only one application is needed. SkinDisc TM was acquired by Innoveren Scientific in December of 2022. A breakthrough stem cell therapy technology, SkinDisc TM has positioned the company to combat the rising prevalence of acute, chronic and surgical wounds with an effective and affordable treatment. As outlined in its submission, SkinDisc TM combines stem cells from the patient and several other molecular components to stimulate tissue regeneration, which results in rapid growth of the host tissue. To best serve those who can benefit from this proprietary technology, Innoveren Scientific plans to work with surgeons, podiatrists and physicians to treat patients with severe trauma-based wounds and non-healing chronic wounds, which affected nearly 16.3% of Medicare beneficiaries in 2019, according to a recent study by the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. Those numbers are only expected to continue on an upward trajectory. Innoveren's recent submission to the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) is primarily focused on chronic non-healing wounds and burns, an area of medicine where current treatment options have stagnated. With patented or under-patented components, SkinDisc TM has treated over 500 patients to date. Innoveren reports that early clinical outcomes of those who used SkinDisc TM demonstrated significant results relative to current treatment options in wound healing and limb salvage. Innoveren Scientific expects to receive a response from the FDA by mid-May 2024 for both SkinDisc TM and SkinDisc TM Lite. This 510(k) submission is one of three the company has in its pipeline utilizing the body's own cells to achieve successful recovery of the patient. In the coming months, Innoveren plans to submit an application to the FDA for its SkinDisc TM Ultra technology, an iteration that incorporates Bone Marrow Aspirate (BMA) and would only be available for use in operating rooms and limb salvage procedures; specifically in cases of severe trauma, infections or diabetic foot ulcers. In addition to SkinDisc TM, the company also has BreatheEasy, a 510(k) De Novo pathway medical device that helps patients struggling with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), as well as other closely related diseases such as chronic bronchitis and emphysema.

How Healthcare Triangle (NASDAQ: HCTI) Is Helping Drive AI Adoption In Healthcare

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga AI is rapidly transforming the healthcare industry, with an increasing demand and need for its implementation. One of the key drivers behind this rising demand is the ability of AI algorithms to analyze large volumes of patient data, quickly identifying patterns and making accurate predictions about diseases, treatment plans and outcomes. The implementation of AI in healthcare has the potential to revolutionize the industry, improving patient outcomes, reducing costs, and ultimately, saving lives. Healthcare is at a pivot point where AI-driven solutions are becoming more and more common. Companies that were quick to adapt or are currently taking steps to integrate AI are likely to be much further ahead than companies that are resistant to the technology. However, not every healthcare company has the capacity to seamlessly integrate AI technology into its systems. That's where organizations like Healthcare Triangle Inc. (NASDAQ: HCTI) come into play. Healthcare Triangle works collaboratively with various healthcare entities, such as hospitals, health systems, payers and pharma/life sciences organizations. The company focuses on developing specific AI applications that address clinical needs across a wide range of medical specialties. Whether it's using predictive analytics in oncology or precision medicine in cardiology, its goal is to revolutionize patient care in every aspect. This tailored approach represents a shift towards a healthcare ecosystem where AI-driven insights play an integral role in clinical decision-making, ensuring that healthcare providers remain at the forefront of an ever-evolving industry. “As we navigate towards a future where AI integration becomes synonymous with healthcare excellence, our solutions and services will represent a crucial pivot point,” shared Anand Kumar, Chief Revenue Officer at Healthcare Triangle. “We are setting a new standard for patient care, leveraging AI and LLMs to deliver personalized, predictive, and effective healthcare solutions with our expertise in providing privacy and security adhering to our HITRUST certification and HIPAA compliance. The future is unequivocal in its demand for AI enablement, and with Healthcare Triangle, healthcare providers are equipped to meet this challenge head-on.” The market for AI in healthcare is forecasted to experience growth; in 2023, the global AI in healthcare market was valued at $22.45 billion and it is projected to reach $53.0 billion by 2024. This upward trend reflects the market's progression from $11.06 billion in 2021 to approximately $15.1 billion by the end of 2022. What's particularly noteworthy is the projected overall market value of $187.95 billion by 2030. AI has the potential to revolutionize healthcare among other sectors, and companies like Healthcare Triangle are helping shape the future.

Not Just For The Ultra-Wealthy: Why Trust Deeds Belong In Your Real Estate Portfolio

Ignite Funding

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga In real estate, trust deeds are sometimes a neglected investment opportunity. Trust deeds are legal documents that are used to secure a loan for the purchase of a property. They are commonly referred to as deeds of trust. Trust deeds involve three parties: the borrower, the lender and a trustee. The borrower is the individual or entity seeking the loan to purchase the property, while the lender is the entity providing the funds for the loan. The trustee, typically a neutral third, holds the legal title to the property on behalf of the lender until the loan is fully repaid. While many have been wary of them in the past, trust deeds ultimately provide a level of security for investors and offer borrowers an opportunity to obtain financing for real estate purchases when traditional lending opportunities are unfruitful. There can be an underlying belief that borrowers who need hard money may be unworthy or more likely to default on a loan, but this is not necessarily the case. There are countless reasons why borrowers may come up against barriers within the traditional banking system. Whether it's that a borrower already has an existing loan for an ongoing project or does not fit the traditional mold despite having capital, these borrowers face difficulty obtaining loans for worthwhile real estate projects. That’s where trust deeds and companies like Ignite Funding come into play. Ignite Funding is a company that acts as a conduit between bankable borrowers and seasoned investors seeking real estate investment opportunities. The firm specializes in providing financing solutions in the form of loans collateralized by trust deeds, offering attractive returns to investors. Ignite Funding operates with a focus on diversification, recognizing the importance of investing in capable borrowers across a wide range of markets and project types. As an intermediary for trust deed investments, the company continuously evaluates market influences such as job growth, economic stability and demand for homes, as these factors directly impact project value. With a minimum investment amount of $10,000, potential investors have multiple methods to choose from, including individual or joint cash accounts, self-directed IRA accounts, corporations, partnerships, LLCs, trusts and pension plans. The company prides itself on providing individualized investment opportunities, allowing investors to choose the specific loans they are interested in and the amount they would like to fund. Ignite Funding is looking at real estate investment from a new lens, making it more accessible for both investors and borrowers. For trust deed investments through Ignite Funding, the minimum suitability standards for investors are a $70,000 household income for 2 continuous years or a $250,000 net worth, excluding the value of a primary residence. These requirements debunk the myth that only ultra-wealthy individuals can invest in real estate. With a track record of facilitating over a billion dollars in real estate loans, Ignite Funding has established itself as a trusted platform in the industry, especially in the western United States. As a financing platform, this company is proving the viability of trust deeds as a trustworthy real estate investment tool that investors can use to diversify their portfolios.

Firewall raises $3.7M to take smart contracts mainstream with programmable finality

Firewall

Firewall secures funding from North Island Ventures, Breyer Capital, and Hack VC to bulletproof smart contract networks. Firewall, a blockchain infrastructure startup, announced its $3.7M pre-seed round, co-led by North Island Ventures, Breyer Capital, and Hack VC. Firewall transforms the usability of smart contract technology through an innovative finality consensus mechanism that eliminates smart contract exploits. The founders of Firewall, previously the first and sixth employees at Staked —a staking company acquired by Kraken in a landmark crypto deal—have helped breathe life into the eras of proof-of-stake and decentralized finance over the last six years. In that time, the founders served institutional clients with infrastructure that handled billions of dollars, and now building on their experience, are addressing what most perceive as the final major hurdle to a full embrace of digital assets by the traditional financial system. “Firewall is building the safety rails that enable the everyday person to use the next era of the Internet,” stated Devan Purhar, Co-Founder of Firewall. “Today, billions of dollars are stolen from users, through irreversible transactions that are classifiable as theft. There’s a parallel between the current state of crypto-networks and the early internet, with a similar lack of essential security infrastructure. Our focus is not on marginal improvements; rather, we bring a required paradigm shift in the usability of blockchains. We designed a solution from first principles, and created programmable finality. Fundamentally, we make exploits a concept of the past.” Akin to a digital version of a traditional network’s firewall, Firewall’s technology introduces "programmable finality”. It extends rollups to use programmable transaction finalization rules, which act as automated checkpoints that block harmful transactions, inserted before later stages when the data is finalized by a DA layer such as EigenDA or Celestia. The founders envision Firewall as a part of every smart contract network, acting as an embedded security system that intelligently guards against threats. "Firewall uses real-time algorithms to pre-filter exploits from being included in blocks," shared Sam Mitchell, Firewall Co-Founder. "Then, by using programmable finality we automatically recover from any exploits that bypass the pre-filter checks. Detection at this stage can involve AI models or social consensus, which may take longer.” Mitchell emphasized that institutions, managing trillions in assets, are interested in the benefits of smart contracts but require a secure environment to deploy capital. “Creating comfort for institutional clients to use smart contracts will be the pivotal point for the widespread adoption of digital assets.” Past the founders, the core team is credited with successfully pioneering AI use in crypto threat detection at OpenZeppelin and Forta, and is set to revolutionize the field with Firewall's all-encompassing security approach. The startup’s initial focus is on the rollup ecosystem, and prides itself on alignment with building non-custodial and trustless solutions. The funding will help expand the team and create the community to “firewall the EVM”. Longer-term plans include developing coordination mechanisms to integrate the social layer directly into the Firewall. Travis Scher, Managing Partner at North Island Ventures, said “We believe the primary impediment to crypto’s mainstream adoption is the current security paradigm, in which a single bug can lead to a total loss of user funds. Firewall's solution can prevent such losses, and we are thrilled to support such an important company from the outset.” The funding round was co-led by North Island Ventures, Breyer Capital, and Hack VC, with participation from Finality Capital, and angels including Tim Ogilvie of Staked, Kain Warwick and Jordan Momtazi of Synthetix, Nathan McCauley of Anchorage, and Yaoqi Jia of AltLayer. “Firewall is making blockchains safer for users, developers, and institutions,” said Ted Breyer of Breyer Capital. “We see this catalyzing a new era of smart contract utility, and we’re delighted to support the team.” With the growing global adoption of crypto and regulatory spotlight, catalyzed by the BTC ETF and anticipated ETH ETF, the time for crypto-networks to become bulletproof is now. Trillions of dollars remain on the sidelines, scared to use smart contracts. Firewall's “programmable finality” which effectively neutralizes exploits, offers the security assurance needed to unlock these assets, paving the way for crypto to revolutionize the global financial system. About Firewall Firewall is dedicated to making smart contract technology safe to use in everyday life, by eliminating smart contract exploits. Their solution is akin to a robust network firewall, applied to the modular blockchain ecosystem. Contact Details Firewall Devan Purhar devan@usefirewall.com

Artemis Resources just "scratched the surface" with more significant lithium results in West Pilbara

Artemis Resources Ltd

Artemis Resources executive director George Ventouras joins Proactive's Stephen Gunnion with details of more promising rock chip assay results that enhance the potential scale and grade of its lithium discovery in Australia's West Pilbara region. The assays peaked at 4.67% lithium oxide content, surpassing earlier findings and marking a significant milestone in the region, drawing comparisons to neighbouring projects. With a substantial tenure spanning over 150 square kilometres and only a fraction explored, Artemis Resources anticipates considerable prospectivity and further exploration opportunities. The findings at the new Osborne East zone and Mt Marie prospect suggest potential extensions and combined strike lengths of up to 26 kilometres, highlighting the vast potential for lithium mineralisation. The mineralogy at Mt Marie reveals large spodumene crystals up to 30 centimetres in length, underscoring the quality and development prospects of the discovery. Ventouras said Artemis Resources plans to continue its exploration with strategic ground reconnaissance, including drone surveys and soil sampling, to expand the mineralised envelope and further assess the lithium potential.
