Ocean Power Technologies CEO Philipp Stratmann joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s financial results for its fiscal third quarter ended January 31, 2026, highlighting a record backlog and a major new government contract. The company announced it has secured a multi-buoy contract valued at approximately $6.5 million from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security in support of a United States Coast Guard maritime domain awareness mission off San Diego.

Guardforce AI Co Ltd (NASDAQ:GFAI, NASDAQ:GFAIW) CEO and chairperson Lei ‘Olivia’ Wang talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s acquisition of MGAI and how it supports Guardforce AI’s broader strategy to build AI-driven productivity infrastructure. Wang explained that Guardforce AI is evolving from its legacy businesses in cash management, smart retail and robotics into an AI-focused technology company, with a mission to “build AI agents as productivity infrastructure” and create a “super assistant for both personal and the professionals to make better decisions.” The acquisition of MGAI marks a move into healthcare, specifically children’s speech and language rehabilitation. Wang highlighted that MGAI is not an early-stage venture but a proven platform with “110,000 patients already served” and “20,000 rehabilitation professionals on the platform.” The company provides AI-powered tools to support therapists, standardise assessments and improve therapy management. She said the deal structure combines cash and equity, with performance-based milestones tied to revenue targets over three years. This approach limits downside risk while aligning long-term growth incentives. Wang emphasised that the acquisition fits into Guardforce AI’s wider strategy, noting that MGAI and its travel-focused AI agent DVGO are “two minds, but one strategy.” She added that further acquisitions are likely as the company builds a repeatable model for scaling AI solutions across industries. Looking ahead, Wang outlined goals including predictable recurring AI revenue, expansion across Asia, and establishing Guardforce AI as a scalable AI application company.

International Biotechnology Trust (IBT) portfolio manager Ailsa Craig talked with Proactive’s Stephen Gunnion about the trust’s recent outperformance, the resurgence of biotech markets, and why merger and acquisition (M&A) activity is becoming a key driver of returns. Craig explained that after a prolonged downturn, biotech is regaining momentum, supported by improved performance and renewed investor interest. She highlighted that IBT benefited from gearing during market weakness and from multiple acquisitions within the portfolio, noting that “we have nine acquisitions out of the fund, making performance really strong.” The trust employs a flexible investment strategy, combining both top-down and bottom-up approaches while actively rotating holdings based on clinical progress and market conditions. Craig emphasized that this adaptability has enabled IBT to outperform its peer group over the long term. A major theme discussed was the acceleration in M&A activity, driven by large pharmaceutical companies facing significant patent expiries. Craig stated, “we're seeing a pickup in M&A right now because big pharma companies are facing massive patent expiry,” adding that further deal momentum is expected. She also pointed to attractive valuations in late-stage biotech firms, particularly those nearing commercialization, and noted increasing IPO activity as a sign the sector is returning to normal. With strong demand from cash-rich pharma companies and improving fundamentals, Craig suggested now is a compelling time for investors to revisit biotech.

Ilika PLC (AIM:IKA, OTCQX:ILIKF, FRA:I8A) CEO Graeme Purdy talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the successful safety testing of the company’s Goliath solid-state batteries under battlefield conditions, highlighting a key validation from a UK defence agency. Purdy explained that the batteries were subjected to live-fire testing on a firing range, where they were penetrated by various types of ammunition to assess their response. The results demonstrated the inherent safety advantages of Ilika’s solid-state battery technology compared to traditional lithium-ion alternatives. As Purdy noted, “they are intrinsically safer because they don't have a flammable liquid electrolyte component,” which significantly reduces the risk of dangerous reactions under extreme conditions. The interview also explored the growing opportunity within the defence sector. While Ilika originally developed Goliath batteries for electric vehicles and consumer electronics, increasing global tensions and the electrification of military equipment have opened up new demand. Applications such as drones, communication systems, and intelligence devices are driving the need for safer, high-performance battery solutions. Purdy highlighted that validation from a UK defence agency is particularly important, given its influence with the Ministry of Defence. The company is now working with partners across the supply chain to convert this interest into commercial agreements and deliver returns on its technology investment. Stay tuned for more updates on Ilika’s progress in solid-state battery development.

Rome Resources Plc (AIM:RMR, FRA:33R) CEO Paul Barrett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest high-grade tin drilling results at its Kalayi prospect in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Barrett explained that recent drilling continues to deliver consistent tin mineralisation, reinforcing confidence in the scale of the deposit. He noted that nearly all drill holes intersect significant tin, highlighting strong continuity across the project. As drilling progresses, the company is also seeing wider intercepts, which are expected to support an increase in the overall resource estimate. Importantly, mineralisation is extending at depth, strengthening confidence in the project's potential. While this does not necessarily change the ultimate target, Barrett said it increases the likelihood of achieving meaningful resource growth. He stated: “We're getting the same grades, but we're getting thicker intercepts,” underlining the significance of recent results. With tin prices remaining strong, Rome Resources is also moving closer to development. The Kalayi licence benefits from its classification as a small-scale mining licence, which could streamline the transition into production. In addition, nearby processing infrastructure presents a potential pathway to accelerate development through partnerships. Barrett emphasised that the project could be fast-tracked, pointing to limited regulatory hurdles and ongoing discussions with neighbouring operators.

Coinsilium Group Limited (AQSE:COIN, OTCQB:CINGF, FRA:5CT) CEO Eddy Travia talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strategic move into prediction markets through its investment in Prediction Labs. Travia explained that Coinsilium has identified prediction markets as a key focus area for 2026, highlighting the sector’s rapid expansion over the past two years. He noted that the market is already valued at more than $65 billion and is expected to grow significantly in the coming years. According to Travia, “we believe it can go much higher, over the next two, three years,” underlining the company’s confidence in the sector’s long-term potential. The discussion also explored why Coinsilium is particularly interested in the intersection of blockchain and trading. Travia pointed out that many prediction platforms rely on blockchain technology to facilitate trades, record transactions, and enable cryptocurrency payments, making the space highly aligned with Coinsilium’s expertise. He also outlined why Prediction Labs’ focus on data and intelligence is especially attractive. Rather than operating purely as a trading platform, the company is positioning itself within the data infrastructure layer, which Travia said has historically delivered strong returns in both traditional finance and the crypto sector. Finally, Travia detailed the milestone-based investment approach, noting that Coinsilium will scale its stake based on technological progress, platform launch, and user growth, including adoption by institutions and AI agents.

ImmuPharma PLC (AIM:IMM, FRA:25I) CEO Tim McCarthy joined Stephen Gunnion in the Proactive studio to discuss the company's latest developments, including progress on its lead asset P140, a newly accelerated program for Kapiglucagon, and recent fundraising activity. McCarthy emphasised that P140 remains the company’s primary focus, with ongoing licensing discussions described as highly active. He stated, “We are delivering a deal this year. We're confident of doing that,” highlighting continued engagement with multiple potential partners, including new parties that have approached the company since late 2025.
