American Marconi Wireless News - Alset AI Announces Strategic Investment in Real Estate AI Innovator Blueprint AI, Expanding its Portfolio of Artificial Intelligence Companies

Blueprint AI's Transformative Technology and Strategic Rationale
Blueprint AI's flagship technology addresses critical inefficiencies in architectural drawing reviews and building code compliance. By automating traditionally labor-intensive processes, the platform aims to significantly enhance accuracy, reduce manual labor costs, and accelerate project timelines for both residential and commercial projects. In addition, the Company and Blueprint AI are exploring a strategic alliance with Alset AI's portfolio company Cedarcross Technologies, whereby Cedarcross Technologies could become Blueprint AI's exclusive cloud compute provider.

Blueprint AI's Vision and Leadership
Blueprint AI is designed to address pressing challenges in the real estate market, including construction delays, rising shelter costs, and housing shortages. Shelter costs have increased by 8.4% annually from 2018 to 2021, according to Statistics Canada¹, while the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) projects a shortfall of 3.5 million homes by 2030^2. By leveraging Blueprint AI's technology, the industry can overcome regulatory bottlenecks and expedite development.

Blueprint AI was founded by Dr. Hao Liang, a recognized leader in artificial intelligence. Dr. Liang is the Canada Research Chair in Intelligent Energy Systems and an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Alberta. Dr. Liang specializes in leveraging advanced AI technologies, including large language models (LLMs), deep neural networks, and machine learning, to address complex challenges across sectors.

Management Commentary
"This investment underscores Alset AI's strategy to build a portfolio of high-impact AI companies that complement our cornerstone cloud computing investment, Cedarcross Technologies", said Adam Ingrao, CEO of Alset AI. "Blueprint AI embodies the type of strategic addition we aim to make, representing a transformative technology company with the potential to solve significant industry challenges, which we can then integrate with our Cedarcross Technologies cloud compute platform. We believe this partnership will drive scalable growth opportunities and create significant value for all stakeholders."

Transaction Details
On closing of the transaction, Alset AI will acquire 1,111,111 common shares of Blueprint AI at a deemed price of $0.135 per share, for a total consideration of $150,000. This acquisition represents an 11.56% equity stake in Blueprint AI. Additionally, the agreement includes a commitment by Alset AI to invest an additional CAD $200,000 in Blueprint AI's next equity financing round, contingent upon Blueprint AI achieving aggregate gross proceeds of at least CAD $400,000 in that financing round.

As part of the partnership, Alset AI will serve as a strategic advisor to Blueprint AI and will appoint Adam Ingrao, Alset AI's CEO, as a Board Observer. Alset AI is also eligible to receive up to 555,532 additional common shares of Blueprint AI upon achieving specific performance milestones, which include securing CAD $400,000 in equity financing, delivering a comprehensive branding and go-to-market strategy, and facilitating client contracts that generate CAD $300,000 in new annual revenue.

Furthermore, discussions are underway to explore a potential strategic alliance with Cedarcross Technologies, a portfolio company of Alset AI, which could see Cedarcross Technologies becoming Blueprint AI's exclusive cloud computing provider.
