Northland Capital Call....

Call with Northland Capital yesterday

Heard some excellent stuff here.

I'm liking the way they're talking about markets, upgrade cycles, making money for customers, price points.... and product volumes. (7 figure and 8 figure product volumes.)

That coupled with acknowledging that there are limited companies that do this... ans we're working with all of them. (Specific mentions of Amazon, Google and Samsung's "Bixby.")


To make it easier to find....

Those companies have invested huge in this technology, this is how they will monetize this.

Competing solutions, better with lower cost

Component costs: "Any components that are too high priced?"

Leverages standard processes and components, and a working with a world-class supplier.
