Predictmedix’s Safe Entry Station units to be deployed at Hockeyfest

Predictmedix Inc (CSE:PMED) (OTCQB:PMEDF) said its Safe Entry System units will be deployed at the North American tour of Hockeyfest, the world’s largest street and pond hockey festival.

The company said through its partnership with Juiceworks Exhibits and Jones Entertainment Group, deployment of the Safe Entry Station units, which offer easy, non-invasive, and robust screening solutions for symptoms of infectious diseases such as COVID-19, will begin with the first HockeyFest event, kicking off on June 25, in London, Ontario. Predictmedix added that the partnership marks the company’s second deployment in the live-event space.

“We’re very excited to partner with Predictmedix and Juiceworks to deploy their Safe Entry Systems at all of our HockeyFest events in Canada and the United States. The artificial intelligence algorithm they have developed is going to be one of the key components in ensuring the safety of all our players and spectators at each of our events. Traveling with the Safe Entry Systems has given us the opportunity to work with each local Health Unit in a much more diverse way than your standard contract tracing. This will be a game changer in getting back to some sort of normalcy in the sports and entertainment industry,” Jones Entertainment Group president Brad Jones.

“As an avid sports enthusiast, it’s a pleasure to be able to play a part in ensuring people from all over the country are able to enjoy a sense of normalcy and tradition by engaging in a sport we all know and love. The leadership shown by the whole group at Jones Entertainment is something I truly admire and am proud to be part of”, added Juiceworks president and founder Jonathan Auger.

“Hockey is more than just a sport. It is essential to the culture and spirit of Canada, and we are proud that our solutions will revive a tradition that was missed deeply amid a global pandemic. As we expand into the live-event market, we are proud to partner with Jones Entertainment that carries a legacy of over 90 years in the making,” Predictmedix chief operating officer Rahul Kushwah said in a statement.
