I just hope this approval of SA is nothing like the CE approval...i would be very upset!!
if no sales are coming through soon and I mean soon!
I would think we have been lead down the garden path... I truly hope that I am wrong
Media training noted! Let’s see what he can deliver?
signed additional distribution contracts in respect of 11 countries (SA + 10......)
Going after multiple, small to medium size sales is like robbing a bank and stealing the coins!
Go big or go home I say! 4th RNS of the week?..... Game on PP! Lost me on the foozeball dit
Following CE marking of the Genedrive® 96 SARS-CoV-2 kit on 22 May, the Company has been actively working to obtain country specific regulatory approvals. The Company has received significant interest from customers and distribution partners for this assay and genedrive has now signed additional distribution contracts in respect of 11 countries to work non-exclusively alongside its existing distributor network. To date, the Company has received over £1.0m of indicative orders for the Genedrive® 96 SARS-CoV-2 test, but regulatory approvals are required to fulfil these orders and ship the product.
I don't get the hatred on this BB about David Budd.
I admit the sky interview was a missed opportunity but his VOX presentation was great IMO.
We don't fully understand what's going on behind the scenes, yes we could sell to EU since CE mark and this is the only thing IMO that has fallen flat so far. Approvals are out of his hands, and strategic partnerships seem to be the bigger focus rather than ad-hoc sales. Obviously I'd take both but the former over the latter any day.
If you have no faith in the CEO then your best off to sell up and **** off
By the way Jimbo - I so agree sky interview could have gone better.....
Let’s hope that was just the dress rehearsal- what do you think BudTime’s been doing for past 5 months??
Annual results will give clue - £1m pre-order already forward spent on media training!
Here here clark.
BudTime is driving the BudExpress though difficult terrain with signposts being changed....I’m sticking with.
On a completely different note heard an amusing anecdote about a football team last week who boarded their ‘bus’ for the trip to an away fixture. Ahead of players boarding, bus was sprayed with alcohol based detergent spray to clean said bus. Upon boarding, driver (not BudTime) tried to initiate thrusters, but engine failed to initiate. Turns out bus had built in alcohol driver detection system which immobilised said bus due to sensors detecting alcohol in the air.....and couldn’t be overridden for 6 hours per system safety Protocol.
Players departed said bus and made alternative arrangements.......only in 2020.
Classic.

He screwed up his Sky interview and hasn't been seen since! Someone should be giving interviews and promoting the product all over social media. This is a MASSIVE opportunity and it needs to be handled a lot better!!
Why haven't we sold any to UK/EUROPE e.t.c ?
We had EC approval for a while now right?

Agree we have been on Radio Silence!
The market is fickle and if they get a whiff of waffle or padding it can be fatal.
The wait for approvals has been painful but all awarding Bodies have moved the goal posts and been inundated with volume, not all good or gold standard I should imagine.
Lots of bad timing issues I will agree but not all can be dumped on DB
If his strategic plays pan out then the tactical errors will be glossed over at the Xmas party!
Even if he does pull of the U.S deal, we should have been selling to licenced areas by the millions and be at £3 plus by now! DUDD OUT!!
Sorry Clarke but he should have done so much more since th May CE approval and communication is pathetic! In my opinion, the more shareholders call for him to go, the more he will have to prove himself. I personally think that he's way out of his depth. This thing fell on his lap but needs a more experienced salesman to take it forward!
Jim
Let see if he pulls the rabbit all the way out of the hat before sending him to the gallows
BC deal come from left field - Could be bigger the anything else
SA approvals again no mention from all and sundry - First approval in
Canada struggling for tests and not had applications for approvals! Isn’t DB Canadian?
Let’s just leave him to it I say?
Imagine if a man like Cathal Friel from ORPH had been handed this opportunity!
Approvals should be accompanied by sales! The potential here is HUGE! Get this goon out now!!! By the way, I'm heavily invested here so not deramping, just not happy with the way it's being played out.
Personally, I would have sacked him after his Sky interview! Embarrassing performance!! I have no doubt that Genedrive will make serious money over the coming months, it would be incredible if a company with a gold standard test couldn't monetise it! I just don't think this fella is the man to take us forward. Get him out and bring in a salesman and a go getter before it's too late!!
