Background of FRR - Innovative Technology & Approach
At the outbreak of COVID-19, FRR Group saw an opportunity to utilize its resources and expertise to tackle the most challenging pandemic testing. Within five months of Scryb signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), together they successfully demonstrated a high-throughput rapid diagnostic testing (RDT) platform capable of processing 60 patients per hour at a single workstation. This platform was deployed at Toronto-Pearson International Airport, where it brought wait-times for departing flights down from 4 hours to under an hour. Following this deployment, FRR Group signed an agreement with LifeLabs to implement COVID-19 rapid diagnostic testing services. Scryb notably integrated its medical device and AI capabilities into the FRR testing platform to enhance its functionality and efficiency.
The Company also announces that W. Clark Kent has resigned from his role as President of Scryb. Mr. Kent will continue to support the business by providing consulting services relating to the capital markets. The Company would like to thank Mr. Kent for his several years of service as President and as a director.
