Basketball Forever Secures $4 Million in Series A Funding on Heels of North American Launch

Basketball Forever

Basketball Forever, one of the fastest growing and most engaged independent sports content brands in the world, announced a Series A funding totaling over $4 million USD. The round was led by Yolo Investments and also included Astralis Capital Management, Andover Ventures, Seth Young of FSG Digital and GMA Consulting, former Pinnacle Sports CEO and current betting and gaming advisor Paris Smith, David Sargeant of iGaming Ideas, Chris Grove of Acies Investments and Benjie Cherniak of Avenue H Capital. Having recently established a North American office, Basketball Forever plans to use the funds to accelerate growth by increasing its efforts to acquire a bigger audience in the region, expand into other verticals beyond basketball and deepen its roster of free and real money games. “This investment from so many leaders and well-respected voices in the sports betting and gaming space is illuminating,” said Alex Sumsky, CEO and co-founder of Forever Network. “It shows that not only is Basketball Network going down the path of profitability as a media company, but that expanding into sports betting and daily fantasy is the right move. Gamifying the sport media experience is the future. This capital will help us explore that vertical more, grow our North American staff and invest time in making our user experience the best on the market.” Since it operates each game, Basketball Forever can seamlessly weave marketing collateral and calls to action into content across its website and social media, offering an unappareled second screen offering. This creates a genuine experience for its users, helping establish a community that continuously comes back for more. This was proved during NBA All-Star Weekend when Basketball Forever launched its first North American focused game Hot Hands, a live action, free-to-play bingo-style game. The game saw more than 10,000 users claim more than 35,000 squares on the first offering of the game. Basketball Forever’s stable of games also includes free-to-play games V.O.A.T. and Streaker, with real-money versions of the games on the horizon. “It’s impossible to ignore what Basketball Forever has done to build a massively engaged audience,” said Tim Heath, Founder and General Partner at Yolo Investments. “Their ability to then create a bridge between its users and the games it creates is invaluable. We feel like Basketball Forever’s continued venture into sports betting in the North American market will establish them as not just leaders in the space, but as a model for other media companies to follow for years to come.” Founded in 2015, Basketball Forever is a digital media platform creating news and content on the global basketball market. For more than a decade, the company has built its brand organically from Australia, amassing a monthly global audience of more than 110 million unique visitors. According to Comscore’s Shareablee score, Basketball Forever is the most engaged sports publisher amongst millennials. Previously, all of its partners, sponsors and development efforts focused on the Australian market, even though the platform reaches 45 million unique visitors per month from the United States alone. In 2023, the company drew 4 billion impressions across all its social channels. ABOUT BASKETBALL FOREVER Basketball Forever was founded in 2015 with a mission to celebrate the game and embrace its ability to unite people from all over the world.

American Aires Inc. (CSE:WIFI; OTC Pink:AAIRF) Proprietary Solution Against EMF Radiation Could Unlock Significant Shareholder Value

AAIRF, EDR, TKO

As the world gets more technologically advanced, there has been a dramatic rise in the number of electronic devices emitting electromagnetic fields (EMFs). EMFs are invisible energy areas associated with electrical power use, and while these EMFs have helped make our lives more convenient and connected, they have also had some unintended consequences. A number of scientific studies have shown that exposure to EMF radiation can trigger inflammation in the brain, which can lead to tissue damage and contribute to the development of various diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases. The results further demonstrated that there was a significant correlation between brain electrical activity and cognitive function, particularly in the areas of attention and working memory. Basically, using devices like your cell phone for just 30 minutes a day can increase brain tumor risks by 40%, while 24 hours of EMF exposure can induce more DNA damage than 1,600 chest x-rays. That is exactly why the Canadian-based nanotechnology company American Aires Inc. (CSE:WIFI) (OTC Pink:AAIRF), which is focused on enhancing well-being and environmental safety, has come up with what is possibly the perfect solution to this problem. American Aires has developed a proprietary silicon-based resonator that protects against the harmful effects of electromagnetic radiation. According to the company, its main goal was to find a way to minimize harm to the body without impacting the capability of electronic devices, which meant that the obvious solution was to modulate, rather than block or absorb radiation, to create a surrounding area free from the harm of EMF. So far, the company has dedicated over 20 years and poured at least $20 million into developing its proprietary nanotechnology, which has resulted in sleek and stylish, convenient devices that can be used for both personal and area protection without any need for a power source. Aires' Lifetune products target EMR emitted by consumer electronic devices such as cellphones, computers, baby monitors, and Wi-Fi, including the more powerful and rapidly expanding high-speed 5G networks. More importantly, the effectiveness of the American Aires Inc. (CSE:WIFI) (OTC Pink:AAIRF) microchip in reducing the harmful effects of EMF radiation has been reaffirmed by the scientific community. A recently published study in the Link Journal confirmed the chip’s stabilizing capabilities, while at least eight peer-reviewed studies and 25 clinical and scientific reports also validated the technology. Backed by such an impressive body of scientific research that supports the company’s technology, it’s no surprise that the company has been growing its topline at a healthy clip. Revenue growth has been robust, and over the past two years alone, the company has doubled its revenue consistently. According to the company’s most recent earnings results, Aires brought in $5.5 million in revenue for the first 9 months of 2022, representing a 63% YoY increase. Extrapolating this growth rate over the whole of 2023, Airestech could be sitting on $10 million in 2023 sales. What's even more appealing about American Aires Inc. (CSE:WIFI) (OTC Pink:AAIRF) is that it boasts superior profit margins. At the moment, its gross margins average about 60%, illustrating just how lucrative the opportunity in this space is. This level of profitability essentially puts Aires right up there with the top technology companies like Nvidia and Apple, which had 75% and 45% gross margins, respectively. The company also reached a key milestone after achieving positive EBITDA (adjusted) in its most recent quarter. A multi-billion-dollar market As you have probably realized by now, it is practically impossible to avoid EMF radiation in our technology-reliant world. That is why investors are taking a close look at American Aires Inc., which seems well positioned to capitalize on this huge opportunity. The market for Aires products is applicable to diverse customer segments, including biohackers, tech-savvy athletes, individuals focused on fertility, those seeking better sleep, and most recently, gamers. The U.S. market alone could be potentially worth $5 billion, which is just a tiny fraction of the global opportunity. Currently, American Aires Inc. (CSE:WIFI) (OTC Pink:AAIRF) operates an online direct-to-consumer sales model with fulfillment centers in the USA, Canada, Australia, and the EU and a customer base of 54,000 clients spread out across 65 countries. However, the company believes that it has the opportunity to further expand its reach now that its products have been especially popular among high-performing athletes and celebrities who value health and wellness. That explains why earlier this month Aires announced the launch of its new campaign, #airesathletes, to broaden its impact within the elite performance sphere, with UFC star Maycee Barber as the first athlete partner. Maycee "The Future" Barber is a formidable presence in the women's flyweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). Last year, the UFC and WWE merged to form TKO Group (NYSE:TKO), and Aires’ initiative aims to connect with professional athletes who have turned to the company for the significant benefits its technology offers, particularly in terms of physiological optimization through EMF modulation as well as the proven protection from external EMF sources. And just earlier this week, American Aires Inc. (CSE:WIFI) (OTC Pink:AAIRF) announced that it had signed another strategic partnership with William Morris Endeavor Entertainment (WME), a titan in entertainment, sports, and fashion. WME is a leader in the global entertainment arena, bringing to the table a vast network of world-class artists, athletes, and content creators and a proven track record in talent management and strategic marketing. That means WME is perfectly positioned to elevate Aires' footprint, increasing brand reach and engagement and underscoring the extensive benefits of Aires' solutions for wellness and performance optimization. WME is part of Endeavor Group Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:EDR), a global sports and entertainment behemoth that has a 51% stake in TKO. This collaboration will harness the growing interest from elite athletes and performers in Aires' innovative solutions and capitalize on the momentum Aires has built among top-tier athletes, expanding on the recently launched #airesathlete campaign. Additionally, this partnership between American Aires and WME underscores a transformative vision: Aires Technology, already trusted by elite athletes and performers for its unmatched performance and recovery benefits, is poised to become a global standard for EMF protection and physiological optimization.

What Does The Advent Of GLP-1 Weight Loss Drugs Bode For Fitness Companies Like The Beachbody Company (NYSE: BODI)? The Answer May Surprise You

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga From Ozempic to Wegovy, Glucagon-like peptide-1 or GLP-1 injectables are taking the world by storm, helping countless people shed pounds. But taking the drug alone may not be enough to get the weight down and keep it off. That still requires some work – which means exercise and healthy eating. It’s also why The Beachbody Company, Inc. (NYSE: BODI) is excited about what these drugs can bring to the world and to its own bottom line. In the wake of the GLP-1 craze, the work-at-home health and fitness company saw subscriptions for its recently launched premium digital health and fitness platform, BODi, rise 27% in the third quarter. It now has over 900,000 subscribers and is still growing. Meanwhile, its month-over-month retention rate stands at 96% – that means only 4% of BODi’s customers don’t come back for a workout or nutrition advice the next month. Seems counterintuitive? Maybe for some but not BODi. “We're actually encouraged about treatments that can help some of the 74% of Americans that are overweight or obese,” said co-founder and CEO Carl Daikeler on the company’s recent third-quarter earnings call. “We also recognize that a chemical solution is only a single step towards sustaining a healthy lifestyle and does nothing to improve skeletal muscle mass, which is critical to health and functioning in the world.” One would expect that Daikeler knows a little bit about that – BODi has made a name for itself over its more than two decades in business thanks to fitness programs like P90X and Insanity, its superfood nutrition shake Shakeology and a portfolio of health and wellness supplements. Can GLP-1 Hurt Demand For Fitness Products? Some investors may worry that GLP-1 pharmaceuticals will reduce demand for at-home workouts and supplements as more people get access to these injectables and pills and the treatment becomes more mainstream. The drugs have proven to be a game changer for people who have tried and failed to lose weight. A 2022 clinical trial of Tirzepatide, the generic name for GLP-1 drug Zepbound, showed people lost as much as 22% of their body weight. To achieve that, the participants also engaged in healthy actions during the 72-week trial including consuming balanced meals with a deficit of 500 calories per day and at least 150 minutes of physical activity per week. It is the latter point that tends to get buried in trial results but is key to the positive outcomes and why BODi is so optimistic. GLP-1, exercise and diet management go hand in hand in the weight loss journey. “It's really vital that people supplement these weight loss drugs with healthier lifestyle choices, including fitness and nutrition,” said Daikeler. “We don't see GLP-1 treatment as a headwind for us, but rather a very significant tailwind, as it brings the importance of reducing obesity to the forefront and makes lifestyle change an important component of that decision.” BODi In The Driver’s Seat BODi believes it’s well positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for at-home fitness programs whether it’s driven by GLP-1 drugs or a desire to be healthy. The online/virtual fitness market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 32.7% through 2032, becoming a $250.7 billion market. In 2022, the market was worth just $14.9 billion. It also comes at a time when obesity in America is a growing problem. As of September 2023 nationally, 41.9% of adults have obesity. That presents a big opportunity for a company like BODi, which boasts a library of over 120 comprehensive, structured fitness programs and recently overhauled its digital platform. That rework has resonated with users; BODi has been selected as the top fitness and workout app of 2023 by CNN. The annual membership of the new BODi app is 80% more than their previous basic BODi app, and the monthly retention rate has remained around 96%. These metrics potentially serve as evidence that customers are appreciating the overhaul and willing to pay higher prices. To give potential customers access to BODi workout programs without having to commit, the company recently launched a free preview. Exercisers can try over 120 sample workouts, nutrition plans and personal development content. BODi is also launching a limited version of BODi Previews on YouTube, providing access to a broader audience. The world is on a weight and health journey whether with the help of drugs or independently. Either way, exercise is an important component of those efforts. BODi has long known that and is confident it can benefit as more people embrace GLP-1 drugs and exercise as a two-pronged approach. Featured photo courtesy of The Beachbody Company.

Gearing up for St. Patrick's Day? Top Tips for a Stress-Free Celebration

YourUpdateTV

For a lot of people, St. Patrick’s Day marks the unofficial start to spring as they celebrate by gathering with loved ones, attending parades, and enjoying festive foods and drinks. But planning and hosting a party can be a hassle when you want to enjoy the holiday yourself. Chef Aaron McCargo Jr. conducted a satellite media tour to share game-changing tips on how on-demand delivery apps can elevate your St. Patrick’s day gathering. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/9YIG_2AhNvY Taking advantage of on-demand delivery platforms for party planning, such as meal and grocery delivery apps like DoorDash, is a great hack to ensure your St. Patrick’s Day celebration is a shamrockin’ success. You can shop a wide variety of items– from snacks and alcohol to decorations and party supplies– from thousands of your favorite restaurants, grocers, retailers, liquor stores, and more on DoorDash and have them delivered in as little as an hour, on average. So instead of doing a last-minute trip to the store this weekend for the Irish butter or shepherd’s pie ingredients you forgot, let DoorDash handle the delivery and focus on prepping your specialties and enjoying the fun. For planners, you can also schedule deliveries in advance, or skip the delivery fee while skipping the lines and opt to pick up your order in person. St. Patrick’s Day warrants a toast, and DoorDash has an impressive selection of alcohol brands fit for the occasion, including iconic Irish brands, local favorites, and more. Search for your favorite beverages in the app, delivered from your local liquor, grocery, and convenience stores with DoorDash. Alcohol delivery and alcohol sales are permitted in certain states and only to people 21+. Please drink responsibly. The luck of the Irish this weekend also brings savings! Starting March 14th through March 17th, if you’ve never ordered alcohol on DoorDash, use code ALC25OFF in the app or website for 25% off an order of $35 or more, up to $15 off. Select locations only. Terms apply. You can also browse offers and deals from your favorite restaurants and local businesses all in one place from the Offers hub on the homepage or Browse tab. But it’s not only about the food and drinks – DoorDash also makes party prep a breeze. From decorations and party supplies to costumes and speakers, you can find just about everything you need to host a memorable celebration, all with the convenience of doorstep delivery.

Arksen: engineering the future of eco-friendly adventure and exploration

Arksen Ltd

Arksen Ltd CEO Jasper Smith tells Proactive's Stephen Gunnion that the UK-based design and engineering company is focused on creating products for adventure enthusiasts, including explorer vessels, overland vehicles, and apparel, underpinned by a philosophy of sustainable and authentic design. Founded around four years ago, Arksen has grown significantly, aiming to challenge industry norms by adhering to circular economy principles, emphasizing the manufacture of products within planetary boundaries. Smith highlighted the company's commitment to environmental respect, comparing its growth strategy to established brands through OEM manufacturing and low overheads paired with significant investments in intellectual property and marketing. Outlining Arksen's multifaceted market approach, Smith said the company sells directly, through a growing dealer network expected to expand from seven to eighty dealers, and via agents and brokers for larger, bespoke products. It targets a wide customer base, from high-net-worth individuals and corporations seeking research vessels to consumers interested in their apparel line. The market across Arksen's sectors is large, with a 7% compound annual growth rate and a total size of about $840 billion, undergoing transformations towards sustainability and changing consumer behaviors. Arksen plans to raise £6 million for expansion, particularly in the US, where 60-70% of its engagement lies. This funding, coupled with potential government-backed debt from a £4 billion investment into the UK shipbuilding industry, aims to scale production and meet dealer demand. Additionally, Smith discussed "10% for the Ocean," a philanthropic initiative supporting ocean conservation, reflecting the company's commitment to environmental stewardship alongside its business objectives.
