Will Jens' options migrate to the new entity?Off to Toronto next week. If I go to Scrambles for breakfast in Ajax, I'll check over the road to see of that Canadian distributor is still trading.

?Anyone read Annex 1

Blackbird plc long term incentive plan

If the share price was to reach £1.50, there would be no need for an FBT group therapy session, the technology would have reached its full potential and we could all STFU and go home!

Does anyone know what happens to the chat history when it becomes BIRD? Do we need a new forum? Will we miss out on MKs end of year stats?

That’s the spirit👍€640;

[geheimnis2] 15/4/2019 15:52

all seems sensible to me

sp > 20p would be welcome...for starters!

50p would suit!

Bentley has a good CV I don’t have any problem with him being Chairman.

[aimster4400] 15/4/2019 15:28

Name change is a great idea and simplified things a lot.The new incentive scheme (which is cash based Bonio not options based) seems reasonable, as long as the share price is driven by performance rather than anything else.The board changes..... Well, maybe Bentley has been pulling the strings from behind the entire time. He deserves a chance at least.

I thought from his postings Bentley was based in California for most of the time. Even setting this aside does that mean they have been totally unable to induce somebody in the industry of Ian's rank or higher to take the Chair? Or didn't they open the appointment and look hard? None of the BoD outside SS and IM would have been on the BoD of any of the companies I knew and certainly not on the companies for which worked. The proposal does not instil confidence.

Name change proposal to Blackbird confirmed for AGM Vote

15p and 20p share price to earn a cash reward.

[bonio10000] 15/4/2019 12:22

So in short:

More options
Name change
Same directors

[paulcon1] 15/4/2019 12:06

'The board has appointed Andrew Bentley as the Company’s new Non-Executive Chairman following the conclusion of the AGM. Andrew has served on the board as a Non-Executive Director since November 2015 and, with his strong media and technology experience, is ideally placed to lead the board in the next phase of the Company’s growth.'

[paulcon1] 15/4/2019 12:02

'The Board proposes that the Company change its name to “Blackbird plc”, to align it with the platform and full product set which the Company markets under the brand name Blackbird and to reinforce the brand and focus in the market'

[paulcon1] 15/4/2019 12:01

'Notice of the 2019 Annual General Meeting, proposed change to the Company name, adoption of a new long-term employee incentive scheme and change in board roles Forbidden Technologies plc (AIM: FBT), the developer and seller of cloud video platform technology using its patented Blackbird technology, announces that the Company’s 2019 Annual General Meeting (the “AGM”) will be held at 10.00 am on 8 May 2019 at Tuition House, 27-37 St George’s Road, London, SW19 4EU.'

[paulcon1] 15/4/2019 11:59

'David Main has today informed the board of his decision to step down as the Company’s Non-Executive Chairman at the conclusion of the AGM but to remain on the board as a Non-Executive'

[paulcon1] 15/4/2019 11:56

Proposed FBT name change and AGM date amongst others:

How's the break into the porn industry going?

Or was that another avenue dropped on the sly?

[chriscallen] 15/4/2019 09:50

...but there's precious little sign in the financials that they are reaching teven UK based customers in quantity and value.

[paulcon1] 15/4/2019 09:29

Perhaps the CEO can do a Harry Potter-esque presentation of the FBT technology and aim it at children!!

😂😂😂

[nickb] 15/4/2019 09:06

Chris
They attended last year.

U.K. customers in TV production are relatively easy to reach.

[nickb] 15/4/2019 09:02

So Ian is not doing a technical lecture on how our Codec works😀

[chriscallen] 15/4/2019 08:46

Is the Media Production Show the first sign of the new COOs activity? Wimbledon to Olympia £2.80 off peak 26 mins 9 stops changing at Earls Court looks a reasonable cost to me. Winning one lead from the presentation that turns into a customer should yield a profit.

[chriscallen] 15/4/2019 07:26

After last week's excitement we can look forward to:
