Too funny. Guess we were thinking the same thing.
Wonder if we see more Speed Connect news and updates now that the lawsuit is behind them?
Not sure if anyone looked at this guys bio who is on the board of Whartons company and Wharton on his board. Looks like he attending MIT for 2yrs. Scroll through his work experience too.

Side note: It's like if they keep saying it enough, they will speak it into existence... lol
The Company will list any unpaid amounts under the Settlement Payment as debt owed to ATC TOWER SERVICES LLC on the Company's uplisting Form S-1 filing with the SEC, and will make the payment from proceeds of its securities issuance, in compliance with Federal securities laws.
Glad they got it resolved in order to move forward. It was listed in the S1. I was thinking it would be difficult to progress with this lawsuit looming over them. Especially if they are trying to spin them off into separate ticker. Little by little, they are progressing.
"This Settlement agreement with American Towers is a positive step forward for both companies and I am pleased that ATC has agreed to participate in our cash allocation from our uplisting to major US Stock exchange as we continue reduce debt."
From the S1:
"We were named in a lawsuit by a collection law firm on behalf of American Tower and related entities, against TPT Global Tech, Inc. The claim derived from an outstanding debt or unpaid tower lease payments. The Company believed it has several defenses to this claim and was communicating with opposing counsel for negotiations of the claims which amounted to $2,891,886, including payment due for all future tower payments not yet incurred under various tower lease agreements.
The Company had accounted for approximately $2,962,839 in payables and operating lease liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2024 for this liability. On June 11, 2024, American Tower received a summary judgment in the US District Court for the District of Colorado for these claims which amounted to $3,977,702, including $1,062,873 in accrued interest and legal fees. On June 25, 2024, the Company and American Tower entered into a Settlement Agreement to be paid of $1,000,000 for past due tower payments, $85,000 in attorney fees and $1,000,000 in costs to remove the Company’s equipment from American Tower’s towers.
This later amount can be reduced as the Company itself removes the equipment. Payment is due no later than December 31, 2024. Default under the Settlement Agreement falls under a Confession of Judgement signed by the Company for $2,085,000, or lessor for any amounts previously paid."
This is another smart city board that Gen Wharton is on. So this guy (Sergio Fernandez de Cordova) is on Wharton's board and Wharton is on his board.

I believe it is private. Tried searching but couldn't find anything. Maybe someone else can look into that. They didn't show up on my ZoomInfo.
Looks like the commentators are rocking VuMe attire... so why didn't we pr this fight or hype it?
While these fights are public, it still feels like they are doing this to show investors the capabilities and potential while making videos for the big launch.
Anyone else just a bit curious?

Hope everyone enjoyed the 4th and weekend! I had friends and family in and was enjoying some much needed time off with them.
Pea, Good example of white labeling with Forevision (if they are) that's what it would be like.
Wish I knew what it all means TTMan, but I would only be guessing, so here it goes. My thoughts are that Gen Wharton was either tasked to build something like this and has been seeking out companies and joining their boards to build it, or he simply has the means, connections and vision to build them..
"Smart Cities" is more than a buzz word, the government wants these types of places to exist all over the world for many reasons. I am sure he can make phone calls to get things done.
I personally don't think it's a coincidence that he is on our board, along with the potential acquisition from the S1 (Urban Icon) while his own company lists off everything TPT is working towards (and Col Lee is the COO and on our board). Does anyone else think so?
Just not sure how close we are. Whartons company was started in 2021 when he joined our board, so they are 3yrs into whatever they are building. Just don't know how close that makes them to launching.
If the full VuMe app launches this summer, than I imagine closer than we think, because I believe that VuMe has more capabilities than we can fathom, and a major part in the smart city initiative. IMO
Have a great and safe 4th everyone. God Bless America!
Connecting more dots folks.
After seeing Gen Wharton on this site I decided to look a little more into what he has been up to. Wellllll, as it turns out he started this company (Global Connective) 2 months before joining our board. He is the CEO & Chairman and if you look at who his COO is, it's none other than Col. Ernest Lee Dunlap (another board member). Looks like they have been busy building exactly what TPT plans to offer. My guess is that they will integrate all of the technology VuMe, Digithrive, Speed Connect, Med Tech, Smart City offers, in a white label capacity?
Sidenote: The other golden nugget that I found in the S1 was that TPT/VuMe will allow white labeling. That is what I was hoping for.
Lee was brought on as COO at Global Connective the exact month Wharton was appointed to TPT's board which was Sept of '01.
Take a look at their site. Looks a lot like what TPT is working on...
https://gcc-us.org/about/
If there wad cash involved, I would be leery of it.
Seemed strange the snuck it in the S1 without a pr or 8k.
Maybe it will close sooner than we think?
And then to find General Wharton on their board, seems like a "done deal" not to sound too much like mx. :)
My guess is that 30% ownership will be substantial for 51% majority, or else someone is getting pencil whipped.
But yes, it is still potential for now.
I agree, it's not a give away. I actually believe it means we found our financing. Those folks seem pretty connected and whatever we are paying for in shares and equity will be worth it for the launch of VuMe. My guess is they close that deal relatively soon along with Geokall and will begin the marketing campaign shortly after.
It appears these boxing fights were just to demo and showcase the PPV capabilities and to ensure it actually worked (and that they have a product to market). Otherwise, it seems strange to have another fight booked for the 6th with very little marketing or a PR.
Summer is here ST3, Let's Go!!!!

Gotcha. Thanks Pea.
Lambo, there must be some substantial reason to give so much away. My guess is that it must be worth it for the 30%... Right now it is generating nothing...
I am just glad it is all shares and no $$$ because it should actually get acquired then..
Thanks for the kind words Pea. You are also really good at digging as well for a part-timer... lol
I think one thing that we should ask is (was this the reason IST was dissolved?) Is there a bigger picture? Will they be back in some capacity?
This deal is giving up much more of TPTS.
"The Company shall issue to the seller 1,200,000 shares of Series G Preferred shares (“Purchased Shares”) of TPTG for 30% of UI, including all assets, licenses, business, work in progress, contracts, equipment inventory, bids and real estate, intellectual property, and technology. This issuance will be in conjunction with additional capitalization intended to be raised for TPTS. The Company will
retain 9% of the Super Majority Series A Preferred shares of TPT Strategic, Inc. and the Seller will receive 51% of the Super Majority Series A Preferred of TPTS.
Who will hold the other 40% Super Majority Series A of TPTS then?
You bet double J
Thanks man!
Feels like a part time job at times.
Pay isn't great at the moment, but has been and most likely will be again soon.
That acquisition was the golden nugget I found in the S1. There could be more hut I didn't get the chance to look it over. House guest this weekend.
This could be why they are touting Airline TV too in the filings.

How about real dialogue on the findings. I don't care about those people either. I post here to share DD with investors and longs that are ride or die with this stock, and keep people in the loop as to what is or might be going on based on the findings.
Let's stay on point. Nice to see the General bringing something to the table.
From what it looks like, this company is like a VC or finds the VC's to become a part of the venture. This is a very smart and strategic acquisition.
Remember how they said they were planning to expand their board....

Agreed penny. This is hoovering under the radar incognito as a failing company. When just the tip emerges (gigity) this thing gonna blow!
There is less than 500 shareholders!!! Haha
Any amount of basic SE0 might send it. They are serious now. At least the 3milly was my indicator game was on. Been waiting for this.
Going to go through the S1 more myself later tonight, but seems like they are ready to start a marketing campaign on the scheduled timeline. Being that we are in "summer" the full app could launch any day. But I anticipate a build up of advertising and influencers to be a part of the marketing. Let's see George Foreman rocking some gear. Get DJ Khalid, and the Rock. ;) lol
I think they have some goodies lined up and have been waiting for all (or most) of the pieces to be ready. Can't wait to see what they have in store!
I would encourage everyone to read the S1 and come to your own conclusion. It is still an uphill battle but hopefully this 3milly is enough to get this thing launched and marketed!
Premium Mobile Devices: VuMe's mobile devices stand out for their premium design, cutting-edge features, and high-performance capabilities. The commitment to delivering top-tier hardware and exceptional user experiences positions VuMe Mobile as a competitive choice in the smartphone market.
VuMe has the ability to create a “Master Network Mobile App” that can allow for a multiple channel build out, each with its own unique Pay Per View charge (optional). This means a company can have a live event channel per country with a different price per user based on the economics of that country.
VuMe has unlimited channel build out (e.g. a company could have 50 channels or 1000 channels). Any telecommunications company can have professional looking displays and user interfaces for mobile with VuMe, similar to what the large telecommunications companies provide. A Master Network App also allows a network to expand into other categories by country (e.g. additional sports categories for various sports by country). Expansion can focus on audience aggregation for sports and other forms of entertainment categories. Pay-Per View is an option for these expanded categories as well. We have built-in worldwide ad brokers for pre-roll commercial ads so that revenue can be generated as soon as possible. There is also potential to upsell to existing advertisers and sponsors and it can be brand specific by country.
Our VuMe Technology Plan We offer VuMe technology for which we plan to expand marketing. We believe SaaS VuMe (VuMe) could become a leading Digital Social Media and Mobile TV technology platform in the business-to-business and business-to-consumer markets. Our proprietary software platform can reach a worldwide audience of approximately one billion mobile viewers. VuMe addresses global mobile distribution of LIVE and Video on Demand (“VOD”) content as a white label Software as a Service (“SaaS”).
In the realm of market expansion, VuMe is set to enter new global markets by collaborating with essential stakeholders, including telecom operators, content providers, and technology companies. Through these collaborations, the company aims to establish a robust and extensive distribution network that can effectively reach diverse audiences around the world. The emphasis on localized content delivery is a key component of this strategy, ensuring that the content provided is not only of high quality but also culturally relevant, resonating with the unique preferences of users in different regions.
Integral to VuMe's global distribution plan is the integration of cutting-edge technologies, such as augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR). This technological integration is designed to elevate user experiences within the Mobile TV broadcasting and social media realms. By providing an immersive and interactive content delivery platform, VuMe seeks to redefine industry standards and offer users a novel and engaging entertainment experience.
In the context of Mobile TV broadcasting, the impact of VuMe's global distribution plan is evident in the enhancement of user experiences. The provision of high-quality content, coupled with advanced features, sets VuMe apart. The strategy not only caters to a diverse audience but also transcends geographical barriers, making on-the-go entertainment accessible to users worldwide.
The social media industry, too, experiences a transformative impact with VuMe's global distribution plan. The introduction of opportunities for content monetization, coupled with interactive engagement through AR and VR technologies, positions VuMe as a catalyst for innovation. Additionally, the seamless integration across various social media platforms fosters a cohesive and dynamic content ecosystem, reinforcing VuMe Technology's role as a trailblazer in the convergence of entertainment and technology on a global scale.
SALES & MERCHANDISING OBJECTIVES:
Our sales and merchandising objectives for VuMe Super App, VuMe Mobile, and GSM eSIM technology are intricately designed to optimize revenue generation and create a compelling in-store presence. Firstly, our primary sales objective is to achieve a substantial increase in revenue within the next fiscal year. This will be accomplished through a combination of strategic pricing, bundling options, and targeted promotional campaigns to drive sales of both VuMe Super App subscriptions and VuMe Mobile phone services and devices.
For VuMe Super App, our sales strategy focuses on increasing subscription-based revenue within the next six months. This involves offering tiered subscription plans, exclusive in-app purchases, and limited-time promotions to incentivize users to upgrade to premium features. Collaborations with content creators and partnerships to integrate additional services within the app will further contribute to revenue growth. Simultaneously, the sales objective for VuMe Mobile is achieved in phone service and device sales within the next fiscal year. We will implement targeted retail promotions, exclusive launch events, and strategic partnerships with retailers to enhance the visibility and desirability of VuMe Mobile devices. The introduction of special edition models and limited-time offers will be leveraged to create excitement and drive sales among tech enthusiasts.
In the case of GSM eSIM technology, our sales objective is to achieve adoption of eSIM-enabled devices within the +next nine months. Strategic collaborations with telecom operators, targeted advertising, and offering exclusive deals for devices with GSM eSIM technology will drive the adoption of this innovative connectivity solution.
Merchandising objectives are focused on creating an impactful in-store presence for VuMe Mobile. The goal is to establish partnerships with at least 100 retail outlets within the next six months, ensuring prominent and visually appealing displays that showcase the features and benefits of VuMe Mobile devices. Training retail staff to provide in-depth product knowledge and creating interactive displays will enhance the overall customer experience and contribute to increased sales. Furthermore, maximizing cross-selling opportunities between VuMe Super App subscriptions and VuMe Mobile devices is a key merchandising objective. Bundling options, exclusive offers for app subscribers, and in-store promotions will encourage customers to explore the integrated ecosystem, creating a seamless and appealing user experience. In conclusion, our sales and merchandising objectives are tightly aligned with our overall business strategy, aiming to drive revenue growth, increase product adoption, and create an immersive in-store experience. These objectives form a cohesive plan that leverages both digital and physical channels to promote the success of VuMe Super
App, VuMe Mobile, and GSM eSIM technology in the competitive tech market.
It is on page 40 the S1. I would start there and then go to like page 42 and start reading. Everything is eSIM. SOOOOOOOOO I can say one of the next pieces of news we here is the Geokall Acquisition based on what I am seeing in our marketing strategy. I would say it's probably 99% done and this financing just secured it.

Yeah. Overall good news. More news should create a buzz and some fomo to offset the dilution.
We needed to see this news. Time to market this thing. Let's see the full app!!!
Yes, we do need some news and updates.
Even with events taking place, we aren't seeing news released.
We are about a week away from another event and zero updates, and the app and site look like crap.
While I am sure they are working behind the scenes, I would've thought the interface would've been a bit more polished for a tech company.
I believe that stock has done this before, or maybe it was ASHI. Not reading too much into it, but it would be nice to eventually see dividends, especially at that price. Maybe they will move assets into that stock? Would love some updates on things though, and some clues would be nice Starling. If quiet still means they are working, they must be grinding.
It's great to see them book events, but strange not to really promote or pr them. Just chalking it up to beta testing... It seems they don't really want to draw a ton of eyes until its ready to fully launch. imo Hard to tell if its that or just limited funds to market it.
Did anyone watch the fight? This was a cool promo just before the match. Was he wearing VüMe gear?
https://www.instagram.com/reel/C8iE2u_Jc0c/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
What is being pumped?
They aren't even PRing events. The stock is stagnant. The air is out of this balloon already.
If your definition of pumping is taking 7yrs to get a product to market while slowly introducing it, then yes this is a HUGE PUMP. lol
You are still here checking in on it...
I tend to agree Randy and feel like we are seeing a squeeze before a pop.
However, TPT hasn't helped themselves either with multiple EM, missed dates & acquisitions, etc... But to be moving backwards in pps while they are broadcasting events and starting to get a product on the market usually creates a little buzz. We are seeing zilch, and the silence from the market and company is deafening and seems somewhat intentional. I could be wrong though.
Roy has clearly proved that he is not "Lamar" and is a true partner and president of this division. Kudos to ST3 for making this happen. Some credit where credit is due. Roy is getting stuff done, which means ST3 got stuff done too.
I just don't get why they haven't PR'd anything?? Seems strange not to with the weigh in today and fight tomorrow. Oh well
Took words out of my keyboard.
Branding and testing phase before full launch? I don't know tbh. But it's moving forward.
I will say, Summer is here! And it's gaining some traction. Hopefully, this will lead into a major fight or event with a Launch of the "Super" part of the app.
Good morning! Android app updated.
We gonna hear news today?
Here we go. 1000 likes with 64k followers regarding the July 6th fight.
Just a matter of time if they keep booking these fights and events. Curious minds will want to know what VuMe is.
Then they will see Roy tied to it rocking VuMe swag and eventually more fighters will too.

Are those the only 2 reasons you are still lingering?
Nice!
Little promo on the ppv site now too.
https://stream.vumeliveppv.com/trailer/vume-live-ppv
VuMe's very first post!
My guess is we will see a pr this week and more to come for each fight. Not thrilled they haven't updated the app to reflect these events, but maybe they achieved what they needed to do in beta or demo-ing for whoever.
I would like to see the app reflect the events though.
