Welcome to the first ever MicroCapClub Invitational where our membership is showcasing several companies we are discussing in our members forum. Oil and gas companies spend tens of billions of dollars every year on exploration trying to discover the next big oil field. With the evolution of 2d, 3d, and now 4d seismic, technology is playing a greater and greater role in reducing the time and money spent discovering oil reservoirs. NXT Energy’s (SFD.V) Stress Field Protection technology is just starting to get adopted by large oil/gas companies such as PEMEX, Pacific Rubiales (PRE.TO), and others. The technology can identify the best oil and gas prospects 10 times faster, and at up to 1/20th the cost of seismic. NXT’s survey technology has already been associated with the finding over 1 billion barrels of OOIP in Colombia in the few short years since the technology has been commercialized. We expect adoption of this technology to increase throughout 2013 and beyond. Listen to CEO George Liszicasc as he tells the story. Read More …

Welcome to the first ever MicroCapClub Invitational where our membership is showcasing several companies we are discussing in our members forum. Over the last ten years there have been huge technological leaps, and the most apparent ones are the ones you can literally see like HD television, displays on computers or smart phones, or even 3D movies in theatres. The crystal clear, pixel-rich, brilliant displays are breathtaking, but the sound emanating from them hasn’t changed in twenty years. Where is the technological leap in sound?

Welcome to the first ever MicroCapClub Invitational where our membership is showcasing several companies we are discussing in our members forum. The EPA estimates that 40-60% of contamination pouring into oceans, streams, and rivers is caused by storm water runoff. For the first time ever, the EPA is now forcing municipalities to do something about it. EPA consent decrees have created $30+ billion in mandated municipal spending for storm water/sewer overflow improvements. Abtech’s (ABHD) Smart Sponge technology is the first antimicrobial application for storm water registered with the EPA for outdoor use. Waste Management (WM) has partnered with Abtech to market and sell a stormwater runoff solution directly to municipalities. The company announced they have 80+ municipal proposals in various stages of progress. Listen to CEO Glenn Rink and VP Bjurnolf White as they talk about the municipal opportunity as well as many other applications for the technology. Read More …

Welcome to the first ever MicroCapClub Invitational where our membership is showcasing several companies we are discussing in our members forum.

MicroCapClub Invitational: Where Food Comes From (WFCF)
Posted January 3, 2013 By Ian Cassel in Blog, Broadcasts, Company Presentations, MicroCapClub Invitational 2013 With | 2 Comments
Welcome to the first ever MicroCapClub Invitational where our membership is showcasing several companies we are discussing in our members forum. Food safety, food transparency, and food verification are expected to be some of the top consumer trends of the next decade. A powerful dynamic occurs when there are several large emerging consumer trends and the best way to play it is a microcap stock. Plenty of investors are aware of Whole Foods (WFM), The Fresh Market (TFM), Annie’s (BNNY), Natural Grocers (NGVC), but few have heard of a 17 year old company called Where Food Comes From (WFCF). You ever wonder who actually verifies food labels and source of origin? WFCF does, and they have a 50%+ market share in verifying beef and are now expanding into other food groups. They are now launching their own food label called Where Food Comes From. Listen to CEO John Saunders as he tells the story.
