Under the agreement, ipCapital Group will assist Armor Designs in the prioritisation of and parallel commencement of the immediate–term (i.e 0-2 years), mid-term (i.e. 2-5 years), and long-term (i.e. 5+ years) research and development efforts within Armor Designs' "Scorpion Works" team, to maximise Company and shareholder value. It will also develop a strategy that educates and reinforces the significant power of VCM methodologies in order that the full potential of the Company's intellectual property is understood and realised.
