EDMONTON, Alberta, October 10, 2024 — TheNewswire – Visionstate Corp. Is pleased to announce its portfolio company, Sol Spaces Inc., an innovator in sustainable greenhouse technology, has entered into a partnership with Enoch Cree Nation, a resilient First Nations community located in Treaty No. 6 territory. Together, they are embarking on a transformative mission that goes beyond business—a shared vision to ensure access to a vital resource: food.
At the core of this partnership is the development of a cutting-edge, 1,200-square-foot greenhouse that will utilize advanced technology and eco-friendly design. This initiative aims to foster food sovereignty while promoting sustainability and innovation within the community.
The greenhouse, constructed using Structured Insulated Panels (SIPs), offers both energy efficiency and superior insulation, ensuring the internal environment remains stable year-round. SIPs not only reduce energy consumption but also significantly lower the carbon footprint of the greenhouse. By using these materials, Sol Spaces is setting a new standard in environmentally conscious design.
In addition to SIPs, the greenhouse will be equipped with smart sensors integrated into the Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem. These sensors will continuously monitor essential environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity, transmitting real-time data to optimize crop production. Heat pumps will ensure consistent temperatures during extreme weather, enhancing the greenhouse's ability to produce year-round.
Enoch Cree Nation, known as Maskêkosihk in Cree, is a community with deep cultural roots and a strong connection to the land. With over 2,566 band members, they are dedicated to preserving their traditions while fostering resilience and community well-being.
“Access to affordable, healthy food is a challenge we all face,” said Elliott Putters, President of Sol Spaces Inc. “This partnership isn’t just about building greenhouses—it’s about empowering communities and building resilience for future generations.”
Construction on the greenhouse began in spring 2024, with operations expected to be fully underway by Fall. This initiative represents a commitment to creating lasting change—together, Sol Spaces and Enoch Cree Nation are sowing the seeds of hope for a future where food security is within reach for all.

Visionstate Corp. Third Quarter Update
Edmonton, Alberta – TheNewswire - September 3, 2024 – Visionstate Corp. (TSXV: VIS) (“Visionstate” or the “Company”), a provider of smart facility management solutions, continues to build momentum in the Canadian market as it sets its sights on U.S. market expansion. The company's proprietary WANDA platform, a leading tool for facility management, is at the forefront of these initiatives, helping to maintain clean and safe environments across a range of institutions, particularly in the education sector.
Growing Market Penetration and Endorsements
Visionstate's WANDA platform has achieved remarkable penetration into Canadian educational institutions, particularly colleges and universities. A recent endorsement from Queen's University highlighted WANDA's effectiveness in tracking cleaning tasks and protocols, reinforcing the platform's value in maintaining sanitary environments. This validation underscores the ongoing importance of robust cleaning programs, even as the immediate threat of COVID-19 has subsided.
In response to growing deployments at larger institutions, Visionstate has made targeted investments in its reporting and analytics capabilities. These enhancements ensure that WANDA continues to deliver high value to its customers, facilitated by Visionstate’s Canadian distribution partner.
Strategic Focus on AI Integration
Demonstrating its commitment to innovation, Visionstate has re-branded an operating division from Next Vision IoT Inc. to Next Vision AI Inc., emphasizing a strategic focus on artificial intelligence. This initiative is being driven in partnership with the Alberta Machine Intelligence Institute ( Amii ), a leading AI development institute based in Edmonton. The 12-month project with Amii aims to integrate AI into the WANDA platform, with key developments in schedule and route optimization. These AI-driven improvements will enable facility management companies to optimize cleaning routes and schedules, enhancing operational efficiency and reinforcing Visionstate’s leadership in the sector.
U.S. Market Expansion
With a secure distribution partner in Canada, Visionstate is now turning its attention to the U.S. market. The U.S. represents a significant opportunity for expansion, particularly given the presence of Visionstate's largest customer, the world's leading private equity real estate firm. To capitalize on this potential, Visionstate is investing in dedicated sales and marketing resources in the U.S.
As part of its expansion strategy, Visionstate will participate in the ISSA Cleaning Show in Las Vegas from November 19-24, 2024. The company aims to forge new partnerships for U.S. sales and marketing and explore opportunities in other international markets. Visionstate has built scalability into its software, ensuring readiness for this expansion. For direct U.S. sales, Visionstate will retain all revenue from license fees, except where resellers are involved. Additionally, the company is rolling out direct marketing and digital lead generation campaigns to drive sales leads in this new market.
Sol Spaces Inc. – A Visionstate Portfolio Company
Visionstate’s portfolio company, Sol Spaces Inc. ( solspaces.com ) has made significant strides in the current quarter, generating approximately $150,000 in revenue. This success is largely due to the sale of residential greenhouses and the development of a community-scale greenhouse for a prominent First Nations community near Edmonton. This project addresses critical food security challenges and exemplifies Sol Spaces’ commitment to innovative, resilient infrastructure.
Looking ahead, Sol Spaces plans to commoditize its greenhouse offerings by 2025, positioning them for broader distribution. Sol Spaces’ products are unique in that they represent the next generation of greenhouses which incorporate new technologies that help mitigate extreme temperatures and can extend growing seasons. The company is also advancing its development of next-generation living spaces, focusing on energy efficiency and affordability, which aligns with Visionstate’s broader commitment to sustainable technology. Visionstate Corp. Owns approximately 40% of Sol Spaces Inc.
Financial Performance and Outlook
Q3 has historically been a slower quarter for Visionstate IoT Inc. due to seasonal factors, particularly affecting revenue related to one time set up fees. However, the company anticipates strong growth in Q4, driven by new contracts with large Canadian colleges and universities. These contracts will contribute to Visionstate’s Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) revenue model, further strengthening its residual income streams. The company also expects additional fees from the development of new auditing features for WANDA, which will enhance monthly revenue.
Visionstate’s management remains focused on profitability, with software margins exceeding 70% and continued cost control measures. The company successfully closed a $500,000 financing round post-Q3, securing the necessary working capital to support its growth plans, including U.S. market expansion, AI development, and other key initiatives.
Looking Forward
As Visionstate continues to expand its market presence and technological capabilities, the company anticipates significant growth from markets outside of Canada. The upcoming ISSA conference in Las Vegas will be a critical launch point for these efforts, as it provides an international platform to showcase Visionstate’s facility management solutions.
In the coming months, Visionstate IoT Inc. will also focus on developing new inspection and auditing technology for a major customer. The launch of a standalone auditing application within the next 12 months will further expand Visionstate’s product offerings, reinforcing its position in the facility management industry.

IoT solutions company raises cleaning standards
https://stockhouse.com/opinion/interviews/2024/02/14/iot-solutions-company-raises-cleaning-standards
The following is a transcription of the above video, and The Market Online Canada has edited it for clarity.
Our next company is Visionstate Corp. (TSXV:VIS), headquartered in Edmonton. The company is focused on delivering data-driven, innovative and sustainable IoT (internet of things) solutions.
We sat down with CEO John Putters, who recently spoke about the company and its recent projects.
TMO: For our listeners who may not be aware, can you provide a brief overview of Visionstate?
Putters: Absolutely, Visionstate is a publicly traded company on the TSX Venture Exchange, under the symbol VIS. Its core business is technology focused on IoT solutions in the facility management space. The company’s software tracks cleaning and maintenance activities in large facilities providing in-depth analytics and AI insights.
The company’s main product is branded as WANDA™️, and it’s actually the first line of defense in fighting infection by providing and ensuring a better cleaning environment.
TMO: Tell our audience about the company’s WANDA™️ technology and how it’s different than the competition.
Putters: The technology is fairly straightforward, and you know, some of the best advantages are like that.
The technology uses a mobile app with QR codes. QR codes are installed in facilities, its strategic locations and kitchens, hallways, that sort of thing. And the staff use those codes to scan with their phone, which timestamps their presence at that location, gives them a list of activities, what we call cleaning protocols.
In conjunction with this, we all also have sensors, for example people-counting sensors. And that data is also fed into our analytics. Once the cleaning staff completes a cleaning activity in a room, this information is submitted, and it goes into a database which provides actionable insights to the facility.
I think our main competitive advantage outside innovation, because I know a lot of companies say, well, we’re innovative, that makes us different, is really the fact that we have a global partner. And what this means is that, first of all, they’re focused in this area specifically in cleaning and hygiene, but it provides us access to a global market through their sales force.
And so as a consequence of this we are growing very quickly, and we believe that market share will be a significant factor in our ongoing competitive advantage.
TMO: What’s the approximate market size for the WANDA™️ technology?
Putters: Well, actually the market size is enormous, it’s in the hundreds of millions, literally. The reason being is that it really includes any type of facility in the world, you know, including office buildings, school divisions, airports, hospitals, universities, hospitality sector, shopping centres, and many others.
And, basically, Wanda™️ is designed to track protocols to ensure cleaning standards are met. This is an issue in basically every large facility, no matter what type of facility it is. So, the market for us is extremely, extremely large.
TMO: Moving on to growth, what contributed to the company’s growth over the past year?
Putters: Well, specifically, I mentioned that we do have a global partner that is passionate about IoT solutions. We re-signed our agreement with our global partner just recently, in October 2023.
Part of that is an annual retainer that they pay us on exclusive rights to distribute the product in Canada. And that doubled in that contract, but it also expanded the reach to Europe and the U.K., and we’re already doing projects in those markets. So, our business has accelerated significantly as a result of that contract. The partner we have doesn’t have a presence in the U.S. yet, so we’re also doing direct sales into the U.S.
We have a very large customer there called Blackstone Real Estate. It’s one of the largest private equity real estate companies in the world. And you would see WANDA™️ in their Class A buildings in Manhattan. They continue to expand as well. The company’s actually growing at a phenomenal pace. And our focus is actually on customer acquisition because we are a residual company or software as a service, as many know it as.
TMO: From a broader outlook, what does the company have planned for 2024?
Putters: We have several focuses for 2024 in Canada. The company is going to maximize its distribution agreement with its global partner by continuing to install in large facilities. And of late, we’ve been doing a lot of universities and, and part of the reason for that is, you know, the university wants to provide a clean, safe environment for students.
And this is one way of doing that and proving it. We’re going to maximize our opportunities in the U.S. in the meantime. We’re doing direct sales into the U.S., leveraging our existing customer base, but we’re also doing lead generation advertising and that sort of thing.
So, there’s a real focus on that, which aligns with our broader IoT solutions focus. Then, because of the new agreement, there’s this whole new market with Europe and the U.K. We’re putting in the infrastructure to grow that. But we’ve also got some ongoing installations that we’re working on right now, including (the) Uber head office in London, England.
So, they’re exciting projects and we’re starting to get a foothold there. We see 2024 is very exciting and a real growth year for the company.

In fiscal 2023, Wanda evolved into a mobile version, WandaMOBILE, expanding its footprint beyond restrooms to become a complete facility management tool. The touchless and scalable nature of WandaMOBILE makes it particularly relevant in the context of COVID-19, aligning with new standards for interacting with publicly accessible technology. For fiscal 2024, Visionstate IoT Inc. is focusing on deploying WandaMOBILE, targeting large customers such as municipalities and school districts, with three-year contracts and monthly residuals based on activations per customer.
In 2023, Next Vision IoT Inc. developed IoT sensors for people counting using Time of Flight technology. People counting gives important context to facility management activities as it measures efficiency in cleaning and resource use against customer demand. The Company has since deployed 50 units to three locations in Canada including two university campuses and a large shopping centre in Calgary, Alberta.
On November 23, 2023, the Company announced that, subject to regulatory approval, it intends to complete an offering of up to 20,000,000 units of the Company (“Units”) at a price of $0.02 per Unit for gross proceeds of up to $400,000. Each Unit is comprised of one (1) common share of the Company (“Common Share”) and one (1) Common Share purchase warrant (“Warrant”) whereby each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one (1) additional Common Share at a price of $0.05 per Common Share for a period of two (2) years following the date of closing. Between December 15 and December 21, 2023, $315,000 were received from subscribers for shares to be issued in late January 2024, which includes 5,000,000 Units issued to certain insiders of the Company.

CHF's Byte-sized Reviews - December 14, 2023
https://mailchi.mp/46ef98031cc4/chfs-byte-sized-reviews-december-14?e=79ef2b9dd7
Dear Reader,
I was recently reading the Canadian Smallcap Investment Blog post about Visionstate Inc. (TSXV: VIS) and its WANDATM Product, by Analyst and Strategic Investor, Edward Vranic, CFA.
WANDATM is a smartphone-based platform that can be used for any kind of work-related activity that is based on a checklist of tasks and can collect and store data generated through the processing and logging of those tasks. There are tasks that need to be undertaken, and tracked, but may be overlooked, intentionally omitted, or just otherwise forgotten, or even forgotten to be marked as done, without prompting from an app.
What I see as missing in the workforce today are solid aspects of time management and personal organization. A lot of time and energy goes into training workers how to complete the tasks and remain safe, but every job consists of several tasks. When working from a paper list of tasks it is easy to scan the list quickly and check off what the worker considers unimportant, things that “won’t get done today” picking the simple tasks most easily done and moving on. The best workers have learned from experience and organized their time, tools, and supplies to complete everything to the required standard, in minimum time. But not everyone is an all-star. What is needed is a tool that organizes the worker so that everything gets done, in the right order, on time, and nothing is missed or skipped.
Isn't it about time for WANDATM to get out of the washroom, and become a tool for getting the other jobs, in just about every industrial setting, done. Industries are looking for this tool, and struggling to develop and implement systems internally because they are not available in a form that they can use, in the marketplace.
Activity logging is the key as it provides QA/QC data that can be used to prove that the required inspections, maintenance, and safety precautions have been completed, correctly, even for legal purposes. Working on a smartphone allows uploading of timestamped photo and video records as well. Visionstate will also have access to the aggregate data of its clients. This can result in regional or national data on a wide variety of processes or desired outcomes. This data could hold substantial economic value or be used to improve practices and even foster better regulatory policy. Just think how much the data that could be generated, when WANDATM is implemented at a wide enough scale, could be worth. The data generated can then lead to better decisions made by the organization, and that can impact all facets of the business.
I encourage Visionstate to continue to grow WANDATM and expand its capabilities to get jobs done and to manage and coordinate the work. I look forward to WANDATM Ultimate: no limits.

Visionstate arranges $400,000 private placement
2023-11-24 08:06 ET - News Release
Ms. Shannon Moore reports
VISIONSTATE CORP ANNOUNCES PRIVATE PLACEMENT TO FUND US EXPANSION
Visionstate Corp. has arranged a private placement to raise $400,000 for the issuance of 20 million units at two cents per unit, with each unit consisting of one common share and one full warrant exercisable at five cents for two years, subject to regulatory approval.
The proceeds raised will primarily be allocated to expand the company's product marketing efforts in the United States, where Visionstate IoT Inc., the company's main operating division, has already established a strong presence with several prominent customers. The targeted focus will be on resellers of the Wanda product, a cutting-edge facility management application designed to track cleaning and maintenance activities.
In addition to fortifying its position in the U.S. market, Visionstate will allocate resources to enhance its ViCCi 2.0 product. Set to launch in the first quarter of 2024, ViCCi 2.0 represents a significant evolution from its predecessor, leveraging artificial intelligence and conversational interfaces to provide advanced virtual customer assistance in brick and mortar settings.
Shannon Moore, president of Visionstate IoT, commented on the significance of these developments: "We are at an inflection point when it comes to facility management software. Like other businesses, facility managers are looking at new ways of controlling costs and ensuring efficiency -- our Wanda product enables them to do that, powered by analytical data on the operations."
The financing round and strategic initiatives underscore Visionstate's commitment to driving innovation in facility management solutions, cementing its position as a leader in the rapidly evolving technology landscape. It is anticipated existing shareholders and insiders will participate in the financing.
In connection with the offering, Visionstate will be relying on the existing security holders' exemption as well as other available prospectus exemptions. For those investors relying upon the exemption for existing security holders, the aggregate acquisition cost to a subscribing shareholder of all securities of Visionstate cannot exceed $15,000 in the previous 12 months, unless that shareholder has obtained advice regarding the suitability of the investment from a registered investment dealer in the subscriber's jurisdiction. The offer to purchase units is available to all security holders of Visionstate who held common shares on the record date of Nov. 23, 2023.
Shareholders residing in countries other than Canada need to meet local jurisdiction requirements to participate. If Visionstate receives total subscriptions pursuant to the existing security holders' exemption which causes the Offering to exceed $400,000, Visionstate will accept such subscriptions on a first-come-first-served basis.

Visionstate signs multilocation contract
2023-11-09 12:52 ET - News Release
Mr. John Putters reports
VISIONSTATE CORP. ANNOUNCES GAME-CHANGING ROLL OUT OF WANDA(TM) PLATFORM
Visionstate Corp. has reached its latest achievement -- a multilocation contract with a large postsecondary institution. This collaboration signifies another "use case" milestone for Visionstate, as it continues to expand the horizons of smart technology solutions.
Under this agreement, Visionstate will implement its cutting-edge Wanda software for fleet management, revolutionizing the institution's vehicle management processes. This transformative installation will serve more than 500 users across multiple locations, streamlining the check-in/check-out procedures for fleet vehicles and digitizing the storage of crucial information on the Wanda portal.
"This partnership underscores our commitment to harnessing technology for real-world solutions," said Shannon Moore, president of Visionstate IoT Inc. "We are proud to be at the forefront of transformative fleet management, addressing longstanding challenges and opening doors to predictive maintenance capabilities."
Traditionally, paper-based check-in and check-out procedures often resulted in challenges such as misplaced paperwork, missed check-ins and incomplete records. This innovative installation will resolve these issues by creating a seamless, digital system for fleet management, ensuring transparency and accountability.
One of the most exciting aspects of this collaboration is the potential for predictive maintenance. By digitally monitoring the usage and maintenance of the fleet vehicles over time, the Wanda software will gather valuable insights. These insights will enable the institution to pro-actively address maintenance needs, reduce downtime, and optimize the performance and longevity of its fleet.
Visionstate is excited about the opportunities that this contract brings and is dedicated to continuing its mission of providing innovative solutions that drive efficiency, accountability and sustainability.

Visionstate closes $500,000 private placement
2023-08-18 09:31 ET - News Release
Ms. Shannon Moore reports
VISIONSTATE ANNOUNCES CLOSING OF PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCED PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Visionstate Corp. has closed the private placement offering previously announced on June 8, 2023. At the close, Visionstate raised $500,000 through the issuance of 25 million units at a price of two cents per unit. Each unit is composed of one common share in the capital of Visionstate and one common share purchase warrant, whereby each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share at a price of five cents per common share for a period of two years following the date of closing.
If the closing price of the common shares is equal to or exceeds seven cents per common share for greater than 20 consecutive trading days, then the warrant term shall automatically accelerate to a date that is 30 calendar days following the date a press release is issued by the company announcing the reduced warrant terms, without further notification made by the company.
The issuance of units to a person holding more than 10 per cent of the common shares of Visionstate constitutes a related-party transaction in accordance with TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.9 -- Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions, which incorporates Multilateral Instrument 61-101. The offering will be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101. In particular, Visionstate has determined that the exemptions set out in paragraphs (a) and (b) in Section 5.5 of MI 61-101 are applicable, since the aggregate consideration to be paid by the related parties will not exceed 25 per cent of the market capitalization of Visionstate and Visionstate is not listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, but only on the TSX Venture Exchange. In addition, regarding the minority shareholder approval exemptions, the independent directors have determined that the exemptions set out in paragraphs (1)(a) and (b) in Section 5.7 of MI 61-101 are applicable in that the aggregate consideration to be paid by the related parties will not exceed 25 per cent of the market capitalization of Visionstate, the distribution of the securities to the related parties will have a fair market value of not more than $2.5-million and Visionstate is not listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, but only on the TSX Venture Exchange.
The net proceeds from the sale of units will be used by the company toward the development and rollout of ViCCi 2.0, an artificial intelligence (AI) application designed to enhance customer service, for marketing and sales initiatives of the Wanda technology to global markets, and for general operating capital.
Pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws, the common shares and warrants comprising the units are subject to a four-month hold period from the time of closing of the offering.
