2D Photonics CEO discusses plans to scale up advanced graphene-based photonics technology

Frontier IP Group portfolio company 2D Photonics CEO Ben Jensen talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s recent €25 million funding round and its plans to scale up its advanced graphene-based photonics technology. Jensen explained the growing demand for faster, more cost-effective data transmission solutions, driven by sectors such as AI and 5G. “What’s required today is ever faster data transmission at lower costs,” he said. According to Jensen, the new device architecture 2D Photonics has developed simplifies photonics design while significantly improving performance. This innovation is crucial for enabling higher bandwidth and lower power consumption across data networks. The funding will support the expansion of the leadership team and the development of pilot production capabilities. Jensen emphasized the importance of execution at this early stage, noting that the goal is to demonstrate the scalability of the technology for semiconductor foundries and ultimately reach high-volume manufacturing. He also discussed future applications, pointing to sectors such as space and defence, where rugged environments make traditional photonics challenging. In addition, the technology has relevance for Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS), where rapid data transmission between sensors is critical for vehicle safety.

Nevis Brands doubles revenue in 2024, cuts losses & expands in key Markets

Nevis Brands CEO John Kueber joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s financial results for fiscal year 2024 and the fourth quarter ending November 30, 2024. Nevis reported $1.56 million in revenue, more than doubling its 2023 sales as it expanded into new markets and introduced new cannabis products. The company narrowed its net loss to approximately $362,000, down from $400,000 the previous year. When excluding interest, depreciation, and amortization, the adjusted loss was reduced to about $58,000. Nevis maintained its leading position in Washington’s cannabis beverage market and achieved the second-best sales ranking in Missouri within its first year in that state. The company also made significant progress in debt reduction, cutting current liabilities from $1.12 million to about $573,000 through debt payments and restructuring. Looking ahead to 2025, Nevis expects continued growth driven by expanding sales of its Happy Apple and Major brands in the hemp-derived THC beverage market. The company also looking for market re-entry in Ohio and Arizona following previous licensing and market shifts. All this happening while the company focused on licensing established products in key markets. Kueber acknowledged that the fourth quarter was challenging, with revenue declines due to licensing and market shifts in Arizona, Ohio, Oregon, and California. However, growth in New Jersey and Missouri helped offset these declines, and the company remains focused on long-term expansion and profitability. #proactiveinvestors #nevisbrandsinc #cse #nevi #otcqb #nevif #majorbrand #cannabis #CannabisInvesting #THCDrinks #HappyApple #CannabisStocks #HempTHC #CannabisBeverages #InvestorUpdate #JohnKueber #CannabisNews #CannabisRevenue #DebtReduction #ProactiveInvestors

Abacus Global Management (NASDAQ:ABL) CEO Jay Jackson takes Proactive's Stephen Gunnion through the company’s strong financial performance in 2024 and its strategic outlook for 2025. The pioneering alternative asset manager reported 69% year-over-year revenue growth for 2024, with the fourth quarter alone seeing a 40% increase. Jackson noted that 2023 was already a record year, and 2024 surpassed that benchmark by over 50%. The company has issued guidance for 2025 that anticipates adjusted net income to rise by between 51% and 68%, driven by continued demand for non-correlated assets. Founded over 20 years ago, Abacus recently rebranded from Abacus Life to better reflect its identity as an alternative asset manager. Jackson explained, “We're an asset manager... and we also own a large institutional asset manager in Luxembourg,” underlining the firm’s expanding global footprint. Growth drivers include strategic acquisitions, expansion of its financial advisor channel, and development in its technology division. Jackson emphasized the role of AI in analyzing health and lifespan data to support financial planning, stating, “Think about the billion scenarios in someone's lifespan… AI helps us understand more accurate outcomes.” Jackson believes 2025 will bring increasing attention to the firm’s asset management operations, complementing its origination and technology capabilities.

Tolu Minerals CEO reveals 8 new targets at Mt Pence and talks initial gold production at Tolukuma

Tolu Minerals Ltd CEO Iain Macpherson talked with Proactive about the company’s initial gold production at the Tolukuma Gold Mine in Papua New Guinea. While not commercial output yet, Macpherson explained that gold from commissioning demonstrates proof of concept and marks the start of larger-scale activity. The company is leveraging existing infrastructure valued at around AU$500 million, with a strategy focused on addressing previous cost pressures that led to mine closure. “The mine shut down, not because the resource ran out... but because they were faced with severe cost pressures,” Macpherson said, citing diesel dependence and lack of road access. Macpherson highlighted Tolu’s capital program and extensive exploration footprint across the broader Tolukuma structure. He detailed the utility of airborne magnetotelluric (MT) surveys, which provide deep, three-dimensional geophysical data. “It gives you a very good three-dimensional picture... and enhances target generation,” he said, noting this method’s success in similar geologies globally. The company also discussed its Mt Penck project on New Britain Island, revealing the identification of eight new porphyry targets based on the MT survey.
