Blockmate Ventures Completes Sale of Midpoint Business
05 December 2023 - 1:00AM
Blockmate Ventures Inc (TSX.V: MATE) (FSE: 8MH1)
(“
Blockmate” or the “
Company”)
announces that it has completed the divestiture of Midpoint (see
www.midpoint.com), its cross-border payments and foreign exchange
business to the management team, led by Mr David Wong, Expadis and
its group of investors (“
Midpoint Management”). In
consideration for the divestiture, Midpoint Management will assume
responsibility for all liabilities and obligations associated with
the business as well as operational expenses associated with
maintaining its operations.
The divestiture will allow the Company to focus
on higher growth technology investments, and is expected to reduce
annual net cash outflows by approximately $500,000. The Company is
at arms-length from Mr. David Wong, and no finders’ fees or
commissions were paid in connection with completion of the
divestiture.
Justin Rosenberg, CEO of Blockmate said “We wish
David and the rest of the Midpoint team every success as they take
Midpoint forward. This sale allows Blockmate to better capitalise
on the exciting trajectory of its current assets in the fast
growing sectors of blockchain and climate technology: Hivello and
BESS Power Innovation Corp (subject to exchange approval). We
expect to update the market with progress in both companies within
the next couple of months.”
