INTERFIELD GLOBAL SOFTWARE INC.‎ ANNOUNCES FILING OF REQUIRED CONTINUOUS DISCLOSURES AND RESTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Published

on

VANCOUVER, BC, June 14, 2024 /CNW/ – Interfield Global Software Inc. (Cboe CA: IFSS) (the ‎‎”Company”)‎ is pleased to announce that it has filed its (i) audited annual financial statements, management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”), annual information form and related ‎certifications for the year ended December 31, 2023 (collectively, the “Annual Filings”); and (ii) interim financial statements, MD&A and related certifications for the three months ended March 31, 2024 (collectively, the “Interim Filings”).

As more particularly set out in the Company’s news releases dated April 1, 2024 and June 6, 2024, on April 8, 2024 the British Columbia Securities Commission (“BCSC”) as  the principal regulator of the Company issued a failure-to-file cease trade order (the “FFCTO”) under ‎National Policy 11-207 Failure-To-File Cease Trade Orders And Revocations In Multiple Jurisdictions (“NP 11-207”) as a result of the Company’s failure to file its Annual Filings on or before April 2, 2024, as required under applicable securities laws. With the Annual Filings and Interim Filings now completed, the Company is up-to-date with its continuous disclosure obligations and will work with the BCSC towards a full revocation of the FFCTO. There can be no assurance, however, that a full revocation of the FFCTO will be granted and all of the Company’s securities will remain subject to the FFCTO until it is fully revoked.

Copies of the Annual Filings and the Interim Filings are available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com.

Restatement of Financial Statements

Subsequent to the completion of the reverse takeover transaction (“RTO”) of the Company with Interfield Solutions Ltd (“Interfield”) on February 15, 2023, the Company filed the audited consolidated annual financial statements of Interfield (being the RTO acquirer) for the year ended December 31, 2022 on March 31, 2023 (“2022 Subsidiary Financial Statements”). The Company has decided to restate the 2022 Subsidiary Financial Statements (the “2022 Restatement”) and therefore the 2022 Subsidiary Financial Statements cannot be relied upon. Similarly, any previously issued or filed reports, press releases, investor presentations or other Company communications describing the financial results or other financial information in connection with the 2022 Subsidiary Financial Statements should no longer be relied upon.  

The decision to restate followed a review conducted by the Company’s new auditor and management’s consideration of the appropriate application of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) for the conversion of the Company’s previously issued and outstanding convertible debentures which were subsequently converted in connection with the RTO to common shares in the Company and the related valuation of common share purchase warrants issued upon the closing the RTO in February 2023, and the reversal of the capitalization of certain development expenses. The material changes to be included in the 2022 Restatement will affect the Company’s consolidated statement of financial position, consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2022.  Please refer to Note 18 of the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com, for additional details on the 2022 Restatement.

Northern Virginia: The Hidden Giant of U.S. Tech? NVTC Study Reveals World Class Talent, Investments in AI, Cybersecurity, and Cloud

Survey of 82 Northern Virginia Companies Underscores Region’s Tech Opportunity and How it Is Poised for Continued Growth

MCLEAN, Va, Nov. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — The Northern Virginia Technology Council (NVTC) today announced the findings of a groundbreaking study of top technology executives in Northern Virginia. The findings highlight the region’s position as one of the nation’s leading technology hubs, while exploring the opportunities and challenges that will shape the region’s future growth and innovation.

The study is based on a survey of 82 top technology organizations in the Northern Virginia (NOVA) region, as well as in-depth interviews with 30+ senior executives, and evaluates the region across five key dimensions: Talent, Innovation, Ecosystem, Business Attractiveness, and Proximity to the U.S. Federal Government.

Northern Virginia is finally getting the recognition it deserves as a technology powerhouse,” said NVTC President and CEO, Jennifer Taylor. “We have the second highest tech employment of any U.S. metro area with 11.2% of the workforce, we are the largest data center market in the world with over two-times total inventory of the next largest market, and we have 2.5 times more computer science graduates than peer-tech hubs like New York, San Francisco, and Seattle. The growth opportunity in this region is clear.”

What the study found:

Talent Access, Skills Gaps: 73% of employers consider access to talent a key advantage, with 55% ranking it as the top factor defining a leading tech hub. Tech leaders noted challenging skills gaps in AI/ML (62%), Cybersecurity (43%), and Software Development (39%). The Northern Virgina region boasts the nation’s second highest net tech employment by metro area – only behind New York City — with 376K tech industry and tech occupation workers, providing a rich and diverse talent pool. In net tech employment, the region is slightly ahead of tech hubs including San Francisco, San Jose, Los Angeles, and Dallas.

Innovation Focus: GenAI, cybersecurity, and cloud computing are the top three emerging technologies that organizations are investing in for NOVA-specific operations over the next 2-3 years. 89% of NOVA tech leaders are investing in Generative AI, 83% in Cybersecurity and Digital Identity, and 61% in Cloud and Edge Computing. Early-stage tech like Space and Quantum are in the early stages of tech adoption.

Ecosystem: NOVA excels in developing growth-stage companies, ranking #1 in the number of firms that scaled up (>50 employees within 10 years) and #1 in the density of high-growth companies (>$2M revenue per 1K firms), compared to peers. Northern Virginia excels at scaling growth-stage companies, and recent surges in VC funding, start-ups, and five-year survival rates highlight its potential. However, one in three tech leaders still cite investment capital and entrepreneurial ecosystem as barriers. Leaders say more support is needed, including tech accelerators and incubators.

Business Attraction: Tech organizations are committed to Northern Virginia – 77% of surveyed organizations plan to stay in NOVA, with 29% considering expanding within the region in the next three years. NOVA boasts the nation’s largest data center market (~5x capacity of Silicon Valley). Still, executives say the high cost of living and transportation issues make it harder to attract and retain key talent.

Federal Government: Tech firms value Northern Virginia’s unique access to the federal government, prompting many major technology companies to have large offices in the region to be close to the federal government to bring IT solutions that address their mission challenges. In fact, companies in Northern Virginia received 31% of federal government’s IT contracting spend in 2023, totaling $24B. However, start-ups and niche firms face high barriers to entry due to contract procurement hurdles.

“This research confirms what many of us have long known – Northern Virginia is a powerhouse in the tech industry,” said Bruce Caswell, chair of the NVTC Board and CEO, Maximus. “Our unique combination of world-class talent, proximity to the federal government, and our focus on cutting-edge technologies like AI and cybersecurity positions us for continued growth and innovation. As we look to the future, NVTC is committed to addressing the challenges identified in this study and further strengthening our region’s tech ecosystem.”

The study, in line with NVTC’s mission, is intended to foster collaboration across the region to address challenges and drive future innovation. As Jennifer Taylor commented, “We see this as the start of an important conversation about the region and the path forward to address the challenges. We are enthusiastic about working with stakeholders across Northern Virginia – including both private sector leaders, university leaders and our public officials – to put these insights into strategic action.

Record-Breaking Pledge to USD Will Transform University’s STEM Programs

Published

By

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The University of San Diego (USD) received a record-breaking pledge from Darlene Marcos Shiley, philanthropist and Chair Emerita of USD’s Board of Trustees, totaling $75 million. It’s the largest gift in university history and among the largest ever given to any Catholic university in the country. The gift will touch several different areas of USD’s campus, with a primary emphasis on creating what will be known as the ‘Shiley STEM Initiative‘, expanding innovative STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) programs, and funding new, state-of-the-art STEM facilities on USD’s campus.

Darlene Shiley is one of the most generous and kind individuals that anyone could ever meet. She’s always looking out for humanity and the best interests of our society, and she loves our students,” said USD President James T. Harris III, DEd. “We are a better institution because of Darlene Shiley and her late husband, Donald, and what they’ve decided to do for this institution and for this world.”

The Shiley-Marcos School of Engineering and College of Arts and Sciences embody USD’s mission to shape well-rounded leaders with a liberal arts education. Both schools boast impressive alumni in STEM, including two NASA astronauts. This gift will build upon USD’s commitment to STEM, meet the needs of growing biotechnology and scientific sectors in San Diego, and help train future STEM leaders and researchers.

“STEM fields touch all different aspects of our lives, and I believe they can be a force for good in our society,” Shiley said. “I was drawn to USD because of its emphasis on a values-based education. This gift fulfills my husband’s and my goals and makes me feel like I’ve made an impact. Now I hope it helps future students take what they learn at USD and make a positive impact of their own.”

Shiley’s gift comes at a key time for USD, where the number of students majoring in STEM disciplines has grown by 50 percent in the past decade. This gift will help expand USD’s STEM offerings by establishing a new integrated STEM space that connects engineering and the natural sciences, as well as expanded opportunities for undergraduate students to participate in research.

The pledge will also be directed to scholarships and programs benefiting veterans and military-connected students, as well as additional funding for USD’s top-ranked MFA in acting, The Old Globe and USD Shiley Graduate Theatre Program.
