Datagate gains new shareholders, new board and increased independence

November 7, 2015

Datagate Innovation Ltd

On Wednesday this week, Enprise Group held a public meeting of shareholders to approve resolutions to allow Datagate Innovation Ltd to issue up to 2.5M new $1 shares to new shareholders and to allow me (as a director of Enprise Group) to buy shares in Datagate at a pre-money valuation of $1.5M. This allows investors to invest directly in to Datagate and for Datagate to become its own more-independent vehicle.

As soon as these resolutions were passed I wasted no time in buying Datagate shares, along with two other investors. More investors will follow in buying Datagate shares in due course, bringing even more new capital in to the business.

This has changed Datagate’s shareholder composition from being 100% owned by Enprise Group to being partly owned by Enprise Group and partly owned by other shareholders (including myself). As of today, Enprise Group owns approximately 70% and other shareholders approximately 30% of Datagate. This will of course change further as other shareholders come on board.

Datagate’s board of directors currently consists of Dr. Jens Neiser as chairman (representing Enprise Group) and myself. Other directors will be added in due course.
