I truly believe there is a good business in there, i have used the platform and developed analytics for it as well.

It will not improve with Ian there unfortunately - I lost significant capital on Pointerra / Ava Risk / Alcidion , All of these company's have CEO's who overly hype their business and future prosperity, i now stand well clear of any company with a CEO i cannot trust or who does not have a history on delivering what they say. For this reason i wont invest in Ai Media.

When Ian is gone i will look at pointerra again ...

You may be right @Wakem with AI Media. Time will tell.

One thing Tony has done this year, unlike the leaders of Pointerra, Ava Risk & Alcidion, was to buy, on market, a significant (around $2M) of AI Media shares.

As @Strawman often says, "people sell shares for many reasons, but only buy for one"

Disc - IRL (Pointerra, Ava, Alcidion, AI Media)

Yes Ai media may be different ( i hope it is), though Ian has significant capital in pointerra and still destroyed value. My other worry with Ai media is the opportunity for one of the majors or anyone else for that matter to disrupt it - Microsoft teams captions calls now....

Does Ai media really have a sustainable moat ?

@ballermania what a fascinating podcast! I bet there are a few of these from 2021 which have aged like milk...

A cautionary point on Ian/3DP, he is the Chairman of the recently de-listed GDA as they argued it was "significantly undervalued by the market". We can only speculate the parties behind the scenes who drove that decision, but fact is the Chair would be highly influential in any outcome. Looking at the current 3DP share price I would be nervous you could see a similar outcome there. That said, a quick glance at the register shows it may be a bit harder to get over the line.

As a GDA holder I'm certainly no fan of Ian for a few reasons so I wouldn't even examine 3DP as a potential investment. I'm fortunate that I only possessed a small holding in Good Drinks as I bought an insignificant parcel given Single Fin is my beer of choice. Being a consumer of one (actually a few honestly) gave me an interest in the company from that standpoint and while they made some solid bolt on acquisitions that complemented the business nicely, and they were growing albeit at a slowish pace, they are in a ultra competitive space against some multi-national corps in a shrinking market. The share price was in a gradual decline until they basically declared we are being de-listed and there is nothing you can do about it so the share price cratered, although it did bounce back slightly at the end as there was some internal buying. I feel bad for any investors who believed in the company and had significant sums of money tied up in them as there has basically been, hmm how would I describe it...absolutely no communication from the company since the "vote". I very much suspect that any holders who aren't in the circle will be agressively dicked down by management in some manner. Likely through dilution of more shares being issued over time.

Anyway sorry for the rant/hijacking of the 3DP thread. I am no fan of Ian personally. Wini mentioning GDA triggered me...lol
