My guest on the show today is Cromwell Coulson, President and CEO of OTC Markets Group (OTCQX: OTCM). As part of my trip to New York City, I had the opportunity to meet with Cromwell at OTC Markets' downtown offices, where we chatted for about 75 minutes. Our last interview on Planet MicroCap Podcast was in December 2019, safe to say a lot has happened in the last 4 years. We covered a lot of topics, including as many of your questions as possible: Micro/SmallCap capital markets, uplistings, de-listings, cross-listings, stock promotion, dark stocks and much more! We conclude by discussing the capital market trends we're likely to see in 2024 and the trends Cromwell would like to see in 2024.

My guest on the show today is Charles Payne, Host of "Making Money with Charles Payne." While I was in New York last week, Charles was kind enough to take some time while prepping for his next show to answer a few of my questions and some that came in from social media. We covered more than I thought we would during our 20 minute conversation, including: starting to reflect on 2023, better understanding investor sentiment, what could happen to cause that to change, his thoughts on the Small/MicroCap bloodbath of the last couple years. We close out looking ahead to 2024 and if there are any new investing themes or trends on the horizon that folks should really focus on. Charles also just released his new book, "Unbreakable Prosperity", which is now available wherever books are sold.

My guest on the show today is Filip Erhardt, Founder and CEO of ESGFIRE. I was introduced to Filip by Paul Andreola from Small Cap Discoveries (thank you, Paul) a few months ago, and we had a phenomenal conversation about his ESG strategy and his approach to investing in environmentally-friendly companies. In the Summer 2023 issue of the Planet MicroCap Review, Filip contributed an article titled, "ESG Investing 101," documenting his investing process, and invited him on the podcast to dive deeper into ESG, Cleantech, Agrotech and why ESG is still a megatrend that investors shouldn't ignore.

My guest on the show today is Wolfgang Kirsch, Co-CEO of Shelly Group (SLYG.F). Shelly Group is an asset-light European smart home device designer, manufacturer, and distributor that has developed a smart home platform under the Shelly brand. The company specializes in the design, production, and distribution of smart, innovative, open-architecture, high-quality IoT home products (Smart Home). Its main business is a growing line of products under the brand “Shelly." I was introduced to the Shelly Group by a good friend and colleague, Adi Soglowek, thank you Adi, and had the pleasure of seeing Co-CEO, Wolfgang Kirsch, present the company at Ian Cassel's MicroCapClub Leadership Summit. At the time, I thought to myself, interesting presentation, but didn't quite understand how the "Shelly", Shelly Group's smart home product, was unique and different amongst the swath of smart home products we have here in the states. This is the reason I love this show because Wolfgang cleared up my confusion real quick, and we dove deep into how and why the Shelly Group chose this pathway for the products themselves and ultimately marketing to the DIY (do it yourself) community. We also discuss: Marketing strategy to break into the US market and how the company hopes to achieve its goal of $200M in revenues by 2026. With that, please enjoy my conversation with Wolfgang Kirsch, Co-CEO of Shelly Group.

Ryan Telford, a private investor and known as @Rtelford_invest on Twitter/X, shares his quantitative microcap investing strategy called 'GUTS'. He discusses the advantages of investing in microcaps and the difference between quantitative and qualitative investing. Ryan explains the concept of exploiting market inefficiencies in microcap investing, particularly focusing on factors like sentiment and short interest. He also addresses the challenges of investing in China stocks and emphasizes the importance of attending investor conferences. Ryan concludes by recommending a quant platform called Portfolio 123 for those interested in quantitative strategies.

My guest on the show today is Kyle Floyd, Chairman and CEO of Vox Royalty Corp. (TSX: VOXR) (NASDAQ: VOXR). Vox is a returns focused mining royalty company with a portfolio of over 60 royalties and streams spanning eight jurisdictions. The Company was established in 2014 and has since built unique intellectual property, a technically focused transactional team and a global sourcing network which has allowed Vox to target the highest returns on royalty acquisitions in the mining royalty sector. Since the beginning of 2020, Vox has announced over 25 separate transactions to acquire over 50 royalties. Investing is difficult, investing in junior mining companies, in my opinion, like biotech, is extremely hard. Picking the right companies comes down to understanding a multitude of factors that requires some expertise in geology (or biology). For the mining industry, the royalty and streaming provides a different vehicle for exposure to the space, and that's why I invited Kyle on to better understand the royalty and streaming business.

My guest on the show today is David Baeckelandt, Head of Client Relations SuMi TRUST - the U.S. arm for Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Asset Management, Inc. Dave reached out to me about a month ago to see if I had an interest in doing an episode about Japanese MicroCaps. I got this email as I was getting geared up for our conference in Vancouver, our first event outside the U.S., which is some fun irony considering our audience is continuing to look globally for quality opportunities. I said yes to Dave, he sent me some great materials making the case for Japanese MicroCaps, and I'm excited to share our conversation all about it.

My guest on the show today is Nick Blitterswyk, CEO of UGE International Ltd. (TSXV: UGE) (OTCQB: UGEIF). UGE develops, owns, and operates commercial and community solar and battery storage projects. Their distributed energy solutions deliver cheaper, cleaner energy to businesses and consumers with no upfront cost, and with over 500MW of global experience, they are working daily to power a more sustainable world, according to the company's website. UGE recently presented at the MicroCapClub Leadership Summit, a phenomenal event by the way, where CEO, Nick Blitterswyk, did a presentation and Q&A with an investor friend of mine, Jeff Kowal. It was a packed room with some of the best MicroCap investors in the game, and Nick did a great job, which by my definition means clearly describing what the company does, prospects for future growth, addressing potential risks that could impede that growth, and vision for the company. I first interviewed Nick in November 2016 (that's about 7 years ago now), and have done six short-form interviews with him since then. I invited him on this podcast as a showcase of how companies evolve, how difficult it can be to refine a company's message despite thinking it's simple, and the importance of recognizing the need to change your business strategy. Furthermore, we also discuss: UGE's pivot to "Full Life Cycle" approach to developing and owning community solar projects The company's backlog and typical project sizes And, of course, Nick's vision for the company With that, please enjoy my conversation with Nick Blitterswyk, CEO of UGE International Ltd.
