Our current product development status consists of our MVP App being launched imminently on IOS to the App Store, and in parallel, we have started to develop a complimentary web platform that will eventually be introduced into the IMPACTR universe, that will be launched later in the year or early next year. These two product pieces work in tandem with each other, and as we go forward you will ensure continued development and evolving the individual products and the product platform overall to create an aligned and integrated solution. Our mobile IOS app is written in SWIFT and the back-end in PHP. The web development that we are bringing into IMPACTR, the front-end is being designed using React.js, back-end with Node.js and the database being used is MongoDB - we work as well with HTML5 and CSS3 on this web platform.

We have several partnerships in early discussions and we aim to have partnerships as a major part of our growth strategy, which we would expect you to lead these discussions and smart integrations.

IMPACTR is creating an infrastructure for the accelerating sustainability industry and ecosystem, and we have major roadmap plans for continued development across 2020 and beyond, that we seek your leadership to execute on.
