When will we hear do you think
It surely isn’t a coincidence that we have 2 huge volume days then warrants issued, I’m certain this points to a milestone being reached (contract signed) either government or corporate
Its healthy for the share price, look at it as refuelling before taking off again
Great entry point for all
GLA and HOLD
Mcap only 8.5 million only!
Wonder how explosive Mcap will on government news

Public ready to accept vaccine passports – and keep them after pandemic is over
What an opportunity to get in before the news!
DYOR
Would they be allowed to announce that they are involved with the sporting events trials or would this have to be kept under wraps so to speak
Any announcement would have to go through the cabinet office. The government has a pass a law before digital passports are allowed.
Presumably the Gov would want to announce it rather than via a company RNS? What does anyone think?!
My intentions are honourable as I invested some time ago. The info I posted, yes it is a year old but is being used by professional footballers, all I am stating is there is competition, it's not a given just because Guy is on the committee. The app might not be adapted for fans for all I know but it's a strong possibility, more so than what we have here. Guy should be plugging other avenues by now but it seems he might be putting all his eggs in one basket
Note the key word :)

Of course, they will use CTEA along with other companys! nobody ever said that the wealth couldn't be shared around! this has been around 10 months in the making, looks like the hard work is about to be rewarded!
Presumably yes, all we need now is to hear it officially via RNS/Government! we always suspected that CTEA was in prime position, now it finally seems that is about to be confirmed!

Been digging around for months trying to find something... anything.. to convince me that this isn't a wild goose chase, others feel free to critique the link, however the VSTE post from earlier, digging through it, it was talking about a possible joint venture with Prometheus medical (admittedly I didn't look at the dates and now don't want to lol). Digging into prometheus, their medical director is a guy called Richard Lyon: https://www.prometheusmedical.co.uk/about-us/prometheus-people
Bha medical advertise the same guy as their only 'medical advisor'.

Meaningful link, or coincidental rubbish?
Prenetics is a Hong Kong company, 10k results a week processing capacity and expensive covid tests
Catenae is well positioned.

... apologies, there was some typos in my message.
The positive I took was that at least no decisions had been made yet.
And I'm assuming that the government will trial more than just one passport?
I was just watching this and the ticker said that the CE Avi Lasarow of a company called Prenetics said they were well placed with to provide health passports to government proposals but that everyone is waiting for the government to make a decision and give some direction"
So I guess nothing has been decided yet but Avi has got his brand on the TV.
Possibly not a good sign?
Just take a look at the website down at the very bottom. Already clearly shows UK government. If that isn't the biggest clue then I dont know what is! Personally think they have the contract. Only realesed another 2mill shares .... surely they would have realesed lots and lots more if they were going no where. Its in the bag!
Interesting that Alamo is posting a year old piece from VSTE announcing the digital passport they were developing to bring fans into sports events. 12 months later, how's that going. Bit sneaky of Alamo posting year old data as though it's new news...guess we can all guess Alamos intentions. GlA
Steg. What Alamo is essentially conveying is that other competition could take any chances of gaining a government contract. It is a fair enough comment from Alamo in the context of things.
Personally I am looking at the glass half full but also understand that we have hurdles. I am pleased with my decision to buy my first tranche this morning.
Can anyone bring any light to what alamo55 is saying ? As if this is the case it aint looking very good for CTEA

New ‘digital health passport’ bids to assist events in coronavirus recovery

VST Enterprises Ltd (VSTE), the UK-based cyber security firm, has announced a ‘sports health passport’ platform to help kickstart attendances at all British sporting events over the coming months when the country emerges from the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
VSTE, along with its marketing agency partner Redstrike, says it will work alongside the UK government to deploy the technology, which aims to help move the general public out of isolation ‘as soon as possible’.
With major sports properties facing massive losses due to the Covid-19 lockdown – English soccer’s top-flight Premier League alone could take a UK£1 billion (US$1.2 billion) hit for an incomplete season – the platform can be used at all major sporting events to ensure fan safety once restrictions on mass gatherings are lifted.
VSTE is targeting rights holders with its V-Covid digital health passport, looking to become officially recognised as an accredited supplier.
The platform can then be used in conjunction with a government approved Covid-19 testing kit that confirms and validates whether the holder has been tested negative or positive for coronavirus or has the antibody present. In future updates, it will include confirmation that they are vaccinated.

Once the test has been completed, the results will be updated to a fan’s digital passport. After that person is vaccinated, it will act as permanent proof of the individual being virus free and protected.
Providing the fan has tested negative, they will be allowed to purchase a ticket for their sporting event by validating their digital health passport, after which they will receive a unique VCode to be scanned before entering a venue.
Supporters attending live events will still be instructed to observe the two-metre social distancing guidelines.
“Football and rugby clubs in the Premier and Football League can issue the ‘V-Covid’ digital health passport app - or an app that uses the VCode technology for the purposes of the health passport - to all fans through their existing fan data
