Tel Aviv, Israel, Dec. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Medigus Ltd. (Nasdaq: MDGS), a technology company engaged in advanced medical solutions, innovative internet technologies, and electric vehicle and charging solutions, announced today that Jeffs’ Brands Ltd. (“Jeffs’ Brands”) (owned 34.87% by Medigus) a data-driven E-commerce company operating on the Amazon Marketplace, has entered into a non-binding letter of intent (“LOI”) with Sky Growth Partners Ltd. (“Sky Growth”), to invest in an innovative Digital Light Processing (DLP) laser-based system for drone countermeasure solutions, initially for the defense sector (the “Investment”).

 

According to the LOI, Sky Growth will establish and transfer all of its rights in the technology to a new Israeli company that will develop, manufacture and market the technology (“NewCo”). Following an investment of $2 million by Jeffs’ Brands, it will hold a 70% equity interest in NewCo. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the LOI, Jeffs’ Brands will establish a credit line of up to $250,000 bearing an annual interest of 8% for the utilization by NewCo for a limited time period, subject to certain conditions as to be approved by the parties. The LOI also includes certain milestone conditions that if achieved by NewCo, will grant the founders, for no additional consideration, additional equity interests in NewCo.

 

NewCo plans on developing a technological system based on a pending patent. According to the LOI, NewCo will develop, manufacture and market an electro-optical defense system, based on a laser combined with DLP, which, upon the successful completion of its development, will provide a stationary or mobile dynamic protection system to disrupt the operation of cameras located on drones and unmanned or manned aircrafts that are remotely operated.

 

The system will be able to neutralize any visual systems such as cameras that are installed on drones and other aerial and non-aerial objects. The laser-based system will potentially be in use for defense and commercial applications, such as: neutralizing drone attacks, protecting against commercial espionage, strategic infrastructure protection and more.

 

The Investment is subject to the successful completion of due diligence by both parties, the execution of binding definitive agreements with respect to the Investment and compliance with any regulatory requirements and approvals.
