The OTCQB Venture Market is set to host its next Virtual Investor Conference on August 5-6, 2026, bringing together a diverse array of companies that span gold and critical minerals, natural hydrogen, artificial intelligence, clinical-stage biotechnology, and specialty construction materials. The event, organized by OTC Markets Group and with B2i Digital as the Official Marketing Partner, offers investors a unique opportunity to engage directly with management teams from companies that are often dual-listed on major Canadian and Australian exchanges.
Each participating company will have a 30-minute live presentation followed by a Q&A session, and investors can also request one-on-one meetings through the conference platform. Replays will be available on the B2i Digital and OTC Markets YouTube channels, ensuring that the content remains accessible after the event. B2i Digital's role is to amplify the conference across its proprietary network, which reaches more than 1.7 million retail and institutional market participants, providing these venture-stage companies with significant visibility.
The agenda includes a range of companies, from gold explorers like Nord Precious Metals Mining and Thunder Gold Corp to emerging players in critical minerals such as Pecoy Copper Corp and Green Bridge Metals Corporation. The conference also features innovators in hydrogen technology, including HyTerra Ltd, and AI-focused firms like SalesCloser Technologies Ltd and Connecting Excellence Group Plc. Specialty construction materials company Cematrix Corp and clinical-stage biotech Oncotelic Therapeutics are also on the roster, highlighting the varied opportunities on the OTCQB.
This event underscores the importance of the OTCQB as a venture market that provides early access to growth stories. As David Shapiro, CEO of B2i Digital, noted, the conference allows investors to question the authors of these growth stories directly, from gold exploration in the Northwest Territories to conversational AI in Vancouver. For investors, this is a chance to hear unfiltered answers from CEOs, which can be more revealing than scripted presentations. The conference is part of a series that throughout the year features public companies from exchanges worldwide, including NYSE, Nasdaq, TSX, TSXV, CSE, ASX, and LSE.
The full list of presenting companies as of August 3, 2026, includes a lineup that starts on Wednesday with Nord Precious Metals Mining at 11:00 AM ET and continues through the afternoon with companies like Tocvan Ventures Corp and Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. Thursday's schedule begins at 9:00 AM ET with Sparc Technologies Limited and features a mix of companies including MDJM Ltd, HyTerra Ltd, Bold Ventures, and Star Gold Corp, with the final presentation by Cematrix Corp at 4:00 PM ET. Registration and company profiles are available on the Virtual Investor Conferences website.
This conference is particularly significant as it highlights the breadth of sectors represented on the OTCQB, from traditional resource extraction to cutting-edge technology and healthcare. By bringing these companies together, the event provides a comprehensive snapshot of the venture market's potential, making it a valuable resource for investors seeking early-stage opportunities. The involvement of B2i Digital ensures that the conference reaches a wide audience, further enhancing the exposure for these companies and offering investors a streamlined way to discover and engage with them.
