"With the firm support of the board and an investor base that is committed to high-growth technology initiatives, I believe we have an attractive platform to aggressively build a company encompassing innovative technologies. In recent years we have witnessed tremendous value creation in the technology space, and going forward, Mobio will have a renewed focus on finding ways to participate in that."
