The term "equity" is more difficult to understand in my first language because it means a lot of things very different.
So, like you said, if equity = value it will be interesting to see why there is an increase in equity, a big news to come soon (prototype is now ready, other partners,...) ? more patents ?
Without forgetting
- maybe the name of the big partner.
- update about the raise capital
- update about the prototype.
- update about the patents.
- new website.
normally only good things to come.
