As of 12 May 2021, TMT has approximately US$25.2 million of cash and cash equivalents on its balance sheet, and the Company continues to research and identify suitable investment opportunities.

Alexander Selegenev, Executive Director of TMT, said:

"During the last few months, we have been continuing to actively invest the proceeds from our US$41 million exit from sales management software company, Pipedrive, which was completed in December 2020.  We believe the recent investments announced today represent exciting and fast-growing future prospects, operating innovative and globally scalable business models.  These include a US$2 million investment into Muncher Inc., a next generation, fast-growing dark kitchen and virtual food brand operator in Latin America, whose business model addresses carbon footprint and sustainability matters by providing food entrepreneurs with kitchen facilities located in reconverted shipping containers and in closer proximity to their clients.  The other investments made provide exposure to the wellness and femtech sectors via Agendapro and FemTech Lab, the Covid-19/hygiene market, via Aurabeat Technology, the social media/digital marketing sector, via an additional investment into Postoplan, the cyber-risk management sector, via Cyberwrite, and the fintech sector via an additional investment into 3S Money.

"With over 40 companies currently held in its portfolio, TMT provides a liquid route to invest in a globally diversified portfolio of hard to access, fast-growing, privately held technology companies thanks to TMT's publicly traded shares on the London AIM market. We look forward to keeping shareholders updated on relevant developments".
