PALM BEACH, Fla., July 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — FinancialNewsMedia.com News Commentary – Around the world, people are becoming more aware of the hazardous effects of regular smoking cigarettes. As a result, alternatives to regular cigarettes have been developed to assist people in quitting smoking. One of the greatest global issues is cancer induced by smoking. E-cigarettes eliminate the risk of cancer and avoid ingesting over 4,000 chemicals, including tobacco and many other toxins and carcinogens found in tobacco smoke, which cause cancer and lung illness. Furthermore, they exhale less harmful material and provide less risk to smokers with asthma.  A battery, an atomizer, and an inhaler make up an electronic cigarette, which simulates tobacco smoking without releasing smoke into the air. It is thought to be less hazardous than traditional cigarettes since the device is filled with a nicotine containing or nicotine-free liquid solution that is heated and turned into vapor before inhaling. Due to different research conducted by medical institutions and associations, it is expected that increased knowledge regarding e-cigarettes being safer than traditional cigarettes, particularly among the younger generation, will further fuel market expansion. The providers’ customization capabilities, including temperature control and nicotine dosages, are projected to boost product demand.  A report from Beyond Market Insights projected that the Global E-Cigarette Market Was Worth USD 22.17 Billion In 2022 And Is Estimated to Grow to USD 168.96 Billion By 2030, With A CAGR Of Approximately 28.9 % Over the Forecast Period From 2023 To 2030.  Active Companies in the markets today include 22nd Century Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: XXII), British American Tobacco p.l.c. (NYSE: BTI), Altria Group, Inc. (NYSE: MO), Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE: PM), Imperial Brands PLC (OTCQX: IMBBY).

The Beyond Market Insights projected that the Global E-Cigarette Market Was Worth USD 22.17 Billion In 2022 And Is Estimated report said: “New e-cigarette technologies such as pod systems and quonk mods have gained appeal and user adoption in recent years. The e-cigarette and vape market has grown significantly, with devices becoming more efficient in terms of battery life and the number of flavors available. Furthermore, diverse flavors such as menthol, tobacco, fruits and nuts, and chocolate are available on the market, attracting many customers… Traditional cigarette regulations are expected to recognize e-cigarettes as a healthy alternative to tobacco consumption, consequently regulating the technology for safe distribution and usage. Furthermore, the vaping business has formed several associations to combat anti-vaping regulations and to regularize the industry for monitoring, thereby promoting the growth of the e-cigarette and vaping markets.”

The Company also announced its VLN ® reduced nicotine content cigarettes are selling robustly in more than 80 Town Pump convenience-stores (c-stores) across the state of Montana.

“Launching VLN ® statewide with Town Pump, the #1 c-store in the state, is a big win for adult smokers in Montana seeking an effective solution to break the chains of nicotine addiction,” stated John Miller, president of tobacco products for 22nd Century Group. “We continue to see a pattern where, once available in stores, strong interest from adult smokers looking for new solutions to cut their smoking habit fuels initial trial and then often adoption and repeat purchase of VLN ® . We are excited VLN will be available in dedicated partners such as Town Pump stores given their reputation for providing customers with excellence. Our innovative VLN ® reduced nicotine content cigarettes, the first and only combustible cigarette to secure a Modified Risk Tobacco Product authorization from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

DC to VC – NatWest Cushon and Future Planet Capital Lead the Charge in UK Pension Access to British Innovation

Published

on

dc-to-vc-–-natwest-cushon-and-future-planet-capital-lead-the-charge-in-uk-pension-access-to-british-innovation

LONDON, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Future Planet Capital (FPC) is delighted to be working with NatWest Cushon, with a view to the Cushon Master Trust potentially making an investment in the British Co-Investment Fund (BCF). Any future investment will be subject to commercial terms, due diligence, and Trustee approval. If approved, NatWest Cushon’s participation would signify a major step forward, creating new avenues for British pension funds to access high-growth, private technology companies at scale. In partnership with pension solutions provider Mobius Life, the Fund will channel pension investment into the UK’s most innovative and impactful businesses.  

The BCF closely aligns with the Chancellor of the Exchequer’s vision under the Mansion House Reforms, aiming to unlock large-scale investment in key British industries. It emphasises the private sector’s pivotal role in accelerating innovation and economic growth, through supporting the UK’s most promising and high-impact technology businesses.

Historically, British pension funds have had limited access to high-growth investment opportunities within the UK, meaning that overseas investors have been the primary beneficiaries of the nation’s flourishing innovation economy. Indeed, according to the BVCA, 86% of venture capital investment comes from overseas investors.  To redress the balance, the BCF will be one of the first funds designed specifically for UK regular savings pension funds. It will offer direct and ongoing access to investments in the strategic technologies of the future.

Examples of companies likely to benefit from the Fund’s investments include Tokamak Energy, a world-record holder in nuclear fusion technology. The government-backed UK Innovation and Science Seed Fund (UKI2S), managed by Future Planet Capital, was the first investor in Tokamak Energy, which has since gone on to raise over $250m. This demonstrates the role of public-private partnership in supporting British technology to drive both economic growth and environmental impact. With the support of mainstream British capital, much more can now be done.

Lord Norman Foster, Chair of Future Planet Capital’s Advisory Board shared, “One of our most important tasks is to anticipate the future and find ways to have a positive impact on the wellbeing of people and the planet. We will need intellectual and financial capital to make that happen. This partnership supports the excellent work that is being done to invest in ground-breaking technologies which offer incredible potential.” 

Douglas Hansen-Luke, Executive Chairman and Co-founder of Future Planet Capital, commented, “This collaboration enables British pension savers to support the next generation of British innovation, ensuring that UK capital not only backs but also benefits from the country’s technological and sustainable advancements.”

Julius Pursaill, Pensions expert and advisor to the Cushon Master Trust, said:
“There are a number of good reasons to support the UK Growth agenda. Innovations like the British Co-Investment Fund play an important role in delivering on this objective by driving financial growth whilst also offering access to innovative, impact-focused sectors such as climate technology and artificial intelligence, which can help secure the future for pension savers and broader society.”

Quotes of Support:

Lord Wei of Shoreditch
”Changing the world and making an impact at scale is really tough and at times can be a lonely place. Future Planet Capital has managed to pull together globally an immense network of investors, founders, and experts to tackle the biggest challenges facing the world today. It is truly a fellowship, and a font of innovation, as well as being a premier fund platform. In these fast changing times it is so reassuring to know that there are innovators working on making the world a safer, cooler, and better place, whose chances of success are being supercharged through the FPC community.”

Jim Wilkinson, Chief Financial Officer, Oxford Science Enterprises
‘Future Planet Capital’s investment strategy offers not only something different, but something that has been lacking in this space. Its approach as well as its scope -involving a remarkable series of partnerships with leading universities and university venture funds – make it a very valuable strategic partner for anyone active in this field.’

Paul Abberley, Investment Governance Board Chair
CEO at Charles Stanley, one of the oldest firms on the London Stock Exchange. Previously the CEO / CIO of Aviva Investors. 

‘Successful innovations deliver superior investment returns. When those innovations have a positive impact on broader society, the capital investments which makes them possible benefit all stakeholders. Responsible investing of this type is easy to envisage but harder to implement, because identification of suitable opportunities is so challenging. The Future Planet approach bridges that gap.’

Priya Guha OBE, Member of the Future Planet Capital Investment Governance Board
‘With the Chancellor firing the starting gun on this Government’s pension reforms in yesterday’s Mansion House Speech, I am delighted Future Planet Capital are able to announce they are in discussion with NatWest Cushon for an investment into the British Co-Investment Fund.  With their strong reputation for investing in high-growth high-impact companies in the technology sector, Future Planet Capital’s BCF is exactly the right vehicle through which pension funds can back the scaling companies of the future; a win-win for British scale-ups and for British pensioners.’

Universal Consulting Opportunities (UCO), a Stellar MLS Subsidiary, Signs Agreement with NAR India As Advisor to Develop a National MLS

Published

universal-consulting-opportunities-(uco),-a-stellar-mls-subsidiary,-signs-agreement-with-nar-india-as-advisor-to-develop-a-national-mls

ALTAMONTE SPRINGS, Fla., Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — UCO, a subsidiary of Stellar MLS, a leading multiple listing service (MLS) in the U.S. and the fastest-growing in the world, has entered into a landmark agreement with the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) India as an advisor to successfully launch an MLS across India. This milestone signifies Stellar MLS’s commitment to enhance the real estate industry on a global scale, expanding UCO’s presence worldwide, and furthers NAR India’s journey to modernize and elevate the Indian real estate industry.

Founded in 2008, NAR India is a nonprofit organization that facilitates the professional development of its members and promotes the highest standards and accreditation in the national real estate industry. It is one of only two countries to hold the NAR designation; Canada is the other. UCO will consult with NAR India’s team to guide in areas including the establishment of an MLS, technology, business strategy, organizational setup, and vendor management.

“We are delighted to align with NAR India, a highly respected organization that shares our values of quality customer service, trust and data integrity to benefit the burgeoning real estate market in India,” said Merri Jo Cowen, CEO of UCO and Stellar MLS. “This is a significant nationwide initiative, and we are proud to share our expertise in establishing the MLS concept across India and be a part of NAR India’s mission to utilize the power of collaboration, transparency and an efficient marketplace.”

Cowen also noted the alignment’s potential benefits to Stellar MLS’s Florida customers, such as through referral opportunities: Florida is home to many Non-Resident Indians (NRIs). Current trends highlight the increasing influence of NRIs in shaping India’s real estate landscape, driven by both emotional connections to their homeland and the pursuit of investment opportunities. On the flipside, India is one of the largest foreign investors in Florida real estate, with $5.4 billion in investments in 2020.

“The partnership between UCO and NAR India marks a pivotal moment for the Indian real estate industry,” said Amit Chopra, President, NAR India. “It brings cutting-edge MLS expertise to India, fostering transparency, trust, and professionalism in our market.”

Tarun Bhatia, Vice Chairman and Chair-Global, NAR India, added: “It also creates exciting opportunities for Indian REALTORS® to showcase properties to a global audience, particularly NRIs, fostering stronger international connections.”

Sumanth Reddy, Chairman, NAR India, concluded: “We are proud to embark on this journey with UCO and look forward to the transformative impact it will have on our members and the industry as a whole, opening up new avenues for growth and collaboration.”

Dr. Mathew Kallumadil, UCO Vice President of Global Markets and Stellar MLS Vice President of Technology and Innovation noted the shared synergies between UCO and NAR India. “India is a complex, diverse market with different languages and cultures within the country, and UCO’s experience in accommodating regional differences and helping build scalable MLS systems will be invaluable in developing a sustainable MLS framework,” Dr. Kallumadil said. “Indian society is very highly digitized, and that is critical to a successful MLS and the ecosystem around it.”

The partnership with NAR India expands UCO’s presence to South Asia, in addition to Europe and the Middle East. UCO recently entered into other strategic global consulting opportunities, including with MLS Leader (Romania) and Arab MLS (Middle East) to optimize real estate practices across their respective regions, and with Igluu, a Prague-based digital technology firm, to expand the MLS concept in Europe. Furthermore, UCO has been actively engaged in global forums to support a forward-thinking approach to transforming the industry and its presence is supported through its partnerships with CEPI, the European Association of Real Estate Professions, and FIABCI, the International Real Estate Federation.
