COMPANY BUSINESS (INCLUDING MAIN COUNTRY OF OPERATION) OR, IN THE CASE OF AN INVESTING COMPANY, DETAILS OF ITS INVESTING POLICY).  IF THE ADMISSION IS SOUGHT AS A RESULT OF A REVERSE TAKE-OVER UNDER RULE 14, THIS SHOULD BE STATED:

 

GenIP® is a UK incorporated company using Generative Artificial Intelligence ("GenAI"), whose mission is to empower organisations to better evaluate and commercialise technology discoveries through two distinct, yet complementary, services namely;

 

(a.)  providing bespoke enhanced research reports assessing market potential for new technological innovations by using the Company's GenAI driven proprietary software, InventionEvaluator®; and

(b.)  providing executive recruitment services to match technology organisations with experienced executives and business leaders using the Company's GenAI-driven proprietary software, Vortechs.

 

Both of these new services couple GenAI analytics with expert human review.

 

GenIP operates globally but its main business interests are within the United Kingdom, the United States and Latin America. 

 

GenIP is a spin-out of Tekcapital Plc, an AIM listed technology incubator that has been successful in identifying and developing various technology companies, which effective from 4 June 2024, transferred to the Company certain assets and intellectual property connected to InventionEvaluator® and Vortechs.

 

Since then, GenIP completed the transformation of their predecessor products through the integration of GenAI technology and as from 1 September 2024, offers new services under InventionEvaluator® and Vortechs brands.

 

The incorporation of GenAI into the Services not only enabled the Company to roll out new, improved products but further enhancements are expected over the next year, so that InventionEvaluator®'s new reports are delivered at a fraction of the time previously required and with a vastly expanded data set at a reduced incremental cost. Additionally, the Company will, as an add-on feature, be able to offer these reports in upwards of 75 languages. In this way, the Company seeks to crystalise this opportunity in creating a first-to-market advantage, with the focus of offering GenAI analytic tools coupled with Vortechs executive search assignments for identifying team members that can help bring new innovations to market on a global basis.
