Content Checked Holdings, Inc. (CNCK) Adds Dr. Göran Skog to Board of Directors

Before the opening bell, Content Checked Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: CNCK) announced the addition of Dr. Göran Rune Skog to its board of directors. Skog brings more than 35 years of experience in the field of medicine to the Content Checked team, during which time he has specialized in orthopedic medicine, physical medicine, research and surgery, invasive pain management and rehabilitation. He currently serves as the head of the spine treatment unit at the NIMI Hospital in Oslo, Norway, and as the associate professor at Cedarcrest Hospitals in Abuja, Nigeria. Additionally, Skog maintains his own private practice in central Stockholm, Sweden.

“We were determined to find a board member with all of the attributes that Göran embodies and we are proud to welcome such an outstanding individual and leading medical authority to our board,” Kris Finstad, president and chief executive officer of Content Checked, stated in this morning’s news release. “I am confident that Göran is going to make a significant and positive impact on our Company.”

Skog received a bachelor of science in psychology from the University of Stockholm, a bachelor of science in Zoology from the University of Tulsa and a doctor of medicine from Oklahoma State University. Leaning on these qualifications, he has served in a number of high profile positions over the years. Notably, Skog served as the physician for the Swedish National Alpine Ski and Winter Olympic teams, as well as the medical director for the Swedish Ski Areas Organization, Alpine Search & Rescue of Sweden and Sea Search & Rescue of Sweden. He’s currently a member of the board of directors of Active Life Foundation, SEB (Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken).

“I have a long-term interest in nutritional, dietary, medical technology and the process of guiding innovative companies to make a positive impact in people’s lives, hit business milestones and expand into new markets,” Dr. Skog stated in this morning’s news release. “I am excited by what Content Checked has accomplished and I am honored to be joining their board.”

In addition to adding a wealth of medical and nutritional experience to its board of directors, the appointment of Skog represents another step toward Content Checked’s planned uplisting to the NASDAQ exchange. Earlier this month, the company engaged Bonwick Capital Partners LLC as its financial and corporate advisor in an effort to better position itself for uplisting later this fiscal year. Among the corporate governance standards to which Content Checked will be required to adhere in order to qualify for uplisting, the company needs to appoint independent directors to its board. Additional requirements include the engagement of an audit committee and adherence to defined management and officer compensation requirements.
