Electronics Wholesale
ADDvantage Technologies Group, Inc. (AEY-NASDAQ)
“The vision that we have for the future and what we have grown over the last
twenty-two years on is maintaining a solid base of inventory for our
customers to use when they need it. We carry a broad line of cable
television equipment that all the major MSOs use and we maintain a large
inventory so that when they have an emergency or there are inefficiencies in
the supply chain, we can meet the demand. That is a business model that we
have started twenty-two years ago and it is something that we have grown
with significantly over the last seven years and continue to look for in the
future.” - Daniel E. O’Keefe, CPA
Mining
Uranium & Diamond Exploration
DIOS Exploration Inc. (DOS-TSXV)
“The key focus for Dios Exploration in 2008 is that we will be drilling five
projects; the first one is Upinor. We will also be drilling Otish for
uranium and we are neighbors to Cameco, the world’s largest uranium
producer. Not far from us STRATECO has begun evaluation of resources.
Further to the north we will be drilling a diamond project called 33 Carats;
which is located just beside the first diamond mine to be in Quebec, held by
Soquem & Stornoway.” - Ms. Marie Jose Girard
Technology
Healthcare
Global Med Technologies, Inc. (GLOB-OTC: BB)
“There are several keys for Global Med, starting with the acquisition of
Inlog on June 26th, 2008, which was a transforming event for the
company. In addition, Global Med has premier channel partners, significant
barriers to entry, very high profit margins and substantial recurring
revenues. We believe we have the best-of-breed software, our model is very
scalable, and we have a management team that has been with the Company for a
long time. This management team is not one that goes in and out of a
revolving door. We have name brand clients and I think the key and bottom
line here is we believe this management team can execute going forward and
we are very excited about our future.” - Michael I. Ruxin, M.D.
Basic Materials
Oil & Gas Drilling & Exploration
Rock Energy Resources, Inc. (RCKE-OTC: BB)
“If you are looking for current cash flow or current dividends, then you
have to go to the Exxons, Shells, and other companies like them. We are not
trying to compete with major oil companies at this point, but we are saying
that as an early stage company, if you are looking to invest in a small
company that has the potential to grow with; it is reserves, it is cash flow
and it is market valuation. All things considered, I think we are
undoubtedly one of the best investment opportunities out there.” - Rocky V.

Mining
Base Metal Properties
Royal Roads Corp. (RRO – TSX-V)
and Buchans River Ltd. (BUV – TSX-V)
“The focus of both Buchans River and Royal Roads Corporation is really
to explore and develop the base metals within the Buchans mining camp in
central Newfoundland. This is an historic camp that got its fame on the back
of the Buchans mine, which was run by Asarco from 1928 to 1984. It was one
of the richest base metal mines in the world. They had produced about 16.4
million tones, that’s over 23% combined base metals, which is an extremely
high grade.” - Warren G. MacLeod
Basic Materials
Industrial Metals & Minerals
Constitution Mining Corp. (CMIN-OTC: BB)
“We sincerely believe that any paper, be it dollars or our stock
certificates, can only have real worth if it is anchored in real value, and
that there are no better assets to anchor value than gold and silver. We
believe that there is an increasing number of investors who share this view,
and so we have made it our mission to consistently increase the amount of
honest money underlying our shares by identifying, acquiring, and exploring
for, and holding onto deposits of gold and silver.” - Dr. Willem Fuchter
Ph.D. P.Geo.
Metals/Mining
Uranium, Precious and Base Metal Exploration
Forsys Metals Corp (FSY-TSX)
“Forsys has a number of objectives and goals that we are going to reach over
the next few years. Our main goal is to bring the Valencia Farm, which is
located in Namibia the African country directly north of South Africa on the
Atlantic side. We have a 43-101 on the
property and a resource of just over 62 million pounds and a reserve of just
over 30 million pounds. We are drilling quite heavily now.” - Bruce Hall
Basic Materials
Phosphate
Spur Ventures Inc. (SVU-TSXV)
“To invest in Spur you have to be interested in investing in agriculture. On
a global basis, agriculture continues to have a very strong future simply
because the world’s population is growing so there are more mouths to feed.
There is less arable land so that means to get increased production on land
you have to be more productive per unit of land and you can only do that
through the application of fertilizers. Thirdly as people’s wealth increases
particularly in places like China and India, there are going to have more
meat and poultry in their diet, that means growing more corn and soybeans to
feed animals and that means more fertilizers. Those three factors together
are very strong drivers for increased agriculture productivity driven by
fertilizer… In addition, China is the world’s largest and fastest growing
fertilizer market.” - Robert J. Rennie
Technology/Energy Efficiency
Electric and Gas Appliances
Pioneering Technology Inc. (TSX:V-PIO)
“Specifically, we focus on solutions that customers need or want. We
identify problems that currently exist with mainstream products and then
develop solutions and/or we identify opportunities that exist in the
marketplace and then create products or product component solutions that
satisfy these customer needs or wants. Our focus primarily is to sell or
license these patented technologies to original equipment manufacturers
(OEMs) however in some instances we manufacture the products ourselves and
distribute them through existing third party distribution channels.” - Kevin

Business Services
EnerNOC, Inc. (ENOC-NASDAQ)
“Energy management is a healthy market. EnerNOC is the largest national
provider when you measure us along most dimensions including revenues,
megawatts under management and the number of commercial and industrial
customers in our demand response network.” - Timothy G. Healy
Services
Publishing - Periodicals
SmartPros Ltd. (SPRO-NASDAQ)
“Our vision is to grow the company into a major force in the eLearning
field. We are educating professionals who need continuing education, to
maintain their credentials. The focus at SmartPros is on being the number
one company in that area.” - Allen S. Greene
Healthcare
Cancer Diagnostic Tests
DiagnoCure Inc. (CUR-TSX)
“With Previstage GCC, we measure 50% of each lymph nodes resected during the
surgery, and amplify the GCC signal with molecular technology. With this
method, we can find one cancer cell in ten million normal cells. The
pathologist can find one cancer cell in about two hundred normal cells.
Therefore, this test is about 100,000 times more sensitive than looking
under a microscope, and we think we can find the 30% of patients that were
missed by the traditional method” - John C. Schafer
Consumer Goods
Personal Products
NaturalNano, Inc. (NNAN-OTC: BB)
“I joined NaturalNano a little over a year ago as Chief Technical Officer
and became president in November 2006. When I first joined really what
changed was the true focus on getting to revenue and developing a product,
so that was our focus over 2007. Putting that strategy together and hitting
some key milestones at the beginning of 2007, we signed two joint
development agreements to help us in development of a nanocomposite
material, which is a special nanoclay called the halloysite, a two-dealer
material in polymer. It provides stronger, lighter, less expensive material
and that is what we are after for the plastics industry. Over 2007, we
really moved from invention through the development stage to commercialize a
product which is now available for sale.” - Dr. Cathy A. Fleischer, Ph.D.
“One of the intriguing aspects of the NaturalNano is it is based on a
naturally occurring element of clay that is mined and is available in
commercial quantities worldwide and they are capable of solving some very
specific problems that need solving today. As an early growth opportunity
NaturalNano has some unique opportunities.” - Kent A. Tapper
Technology

VirnetX Holding Corporation (VHC-AMEX)
