We are just weeks away from the full re-activation and roll-out of our travel booking platform, and the ramp up of marketing to our database of over six million customers. We are excited for the launch of our platform as we continue to see positive momentum for the travel industry, with historic high records of travelers expected to book hotels, flights and curated vacations in 2024. We will also be launching an end-to-end content ecosystem that uses AI-assisted travel planning while capturing advertising, building brand awareness, rewarding loyalty and driving bookings. This mix of owned and operated channels includes our own Travel Magazine platform housing a unique FAST TV (Free Ad-supported Streaming TV) model - Compass.TV. The environment is designed to translate content into commerce, supported by some of the top influencers in the travel vlog world. We look forward to the launch and announcing some of our business milestones in the weeks and months ahead, as we work to build long-term value for all our shareholders," concluded Kerby.
