Why are you raising money here? Are you not that valuable enough to already be acquired by government?

Can your technology also be applied to other types of voting such as shareholder votes?

Hi Mark - definitely. The hooks for corporate/shareholder proxy voting are already built into the apps/system and we are already pitching to a few prospective clients in that space.

I understand the security features using blockchain. But, by using mobile aren't you losing anonymity of the voter?

Hi Steven, all voter identifying information (including mobile number, IP, PII, etc.) is stripped off during the ballot anonymization process and is not stored along with actual encrypted ballot record.

What's your company's revenue model? How does the company make money? Can you please explain?

Dear Michael, the current model is based on charging a tiered price per voter per election. In addition, there are professional services fees (such as jurisdiction setup, integration with voter registration systems, messaging, enhanced reporting and security monitoring, etc.). The buyers are the EMBs (election management bodies). A similar pricing model applies to our other services such a verified citizen polling, mobile petitioning/signature collection, shareholder voting, etc.
