Take this unique opportunity here and welcome CEO Kyle Floyd here. He's the CEO of Vox Royalty just completed my deep dive of the company founded in 2014 and Really looking forward to this get to hear it right from the boss's mouth What we've got going on exciting stuff as we get into this interview Kyle Thank you so much for coming on to the the show this evening Give us a quick rundown for those investors that are not familiar with Vox Royalty if you'd be so kind tell us a little bit About yourself and the exciting things you've got going on with Vox Royalty Absolutely Ryan be my pleasure So Vox Royalty Court was founded back in 2014 And it was created to solve a problem and the problem that I saw in the markets was that investors needed more exposure to commodities And frankly wanted more exposure to commodities But couldn't trust the platform for that exposure whether it was mining companies whether it was ETS with whether it was the physical you name it all of those Outlets for exposure really came with really subpar risk adjusted returns And so Royalty companies for the last 25 years have outperformed the physical and really any commodity-based benchmark that you compare them to Also the S&P 500 and so in 2013 2014 I started building a concept that I believed would present better risk adjusted exposure to investors that weren't commodity Experts weren't mining engineers weren't geologists hadn't been in the industry investing for the better part of two decades But to allow a an opportunity for you know your everyday investor that wants that exposure Especially in an inflationary time like we find ourselves in today To find a vehicle and to find you know in this case of stock in a company that really has You know the right intentions in terms of building value for shareholder and the right capability to do so as well And so that's kind of the genesis of Vox Royalty corp And a little bit on my background And so what we do is we go out around the world and we look at interesting Event-driven catalysts typically on mining assets and what we do is we buy what's called third-party royalties Those are royalties that are held by say the prospect or a geologist or junior mining company That typically was responsible for finding the geological anomaly in the first place And then buying those assets from them So they have nothing to do with the operation to the mine But that asset that royalty asset what that really means is that they will get a percentage of the revenue Generated from that mine typically for the life of that mine And so we go buy those and by buying those we get the same exposure that you get in terms of the upside of owning a Mining company upside exposure to the metal price upside exposure to Expansion of resources and reserves and expansion of production So we get all that upside that really typically tends to be leveraged upside But with a lot less downside We're never on the hook for putting more money into that company when they have cost overruns that doesn't impact us when there's Inflation on your cost as a mining company because they're impacted by inflationary pressures as well. We don't have that we have a very relatively smaller fixed cost structure that doesn't share that variable cost structure than a mining company does So we limit a lot of the risk but realize just as much upside if not more and we're never deluded our interest in that revenue Never deluded so a lot to unpack there and a little bit more verbose But I wanted to give your viewers a really good kind of nutshell perspective on what box does And I think that's really important when you touched on the diversification element I I typically stay away from the junior mining space altogether because even if I own a basket of a half a dozen of them That's only a half a dozen. Whereas if I get exposure to box now. I'm not only geographically diverse I'm diverse across, you know, a number of different precious metals applications So they don't all have to work at the same time. Am I thinking about that right, Kyle? It's absolutely right. I mean we have 55 streams and royalties and so that's across a Multitude of projects. I believe it's 53 projects separate projects and I believe it's more than 40 separate operators So the diversification is real the other thing is We went public in may of last year to give your viewers a little bit more background We went public with one production stage asset. We now fit sit at five production stage assets We're expected to have 10 production stage assets by the time we exit 2023 with I believe upside to that number That won't count additional acquisitions that we can make And then 17 the portfolio we feel really confident are going to be in production Over called the medium term. Well, if you look at 10 producing assets that are generated revenue for our business To get that type of exposure to mining company You're talking about a very large cap Typically probably five to ten billion dollar plus mining company that has that many producing assets You get that level diversification and all the upside that comes along with it in a hundred and twenty million dollar market cap company like Vox So you get the upside with a lot less risk and that was the entire premise of building this company Over the last decade was that we could offer that for investors With the right kind of discipline the right kind of team and the right kind of competitive advantages that we built It's incredible kyle. So I picked up on this with your producing now at five Soon to be 10 going into 2023 Let's talk about the other side of the spectrum with your intellectual property with your 8 000 existing royalties in your database You guys are the standalone company that can boast this Give me some sort of an idea of the range of the tip of the iceberg Which is your producing assets and what that database means for your for your business The database is is hugely helpful. What we Have built our business around is kind of three key legs of the stool and the one of those legs is the database This and everything working to find the best deals of the best valuation for our shareholders in volume as well But one of those legs is our database So that's 8 000 proprietary royalties that we're able to utilize when we find an asset that's had an interesting development That we believe is worth doing more work on then if our mining engineers and our gel just like what they're seeing Then we go into our database and we see if there's a royalty over that project that we can go buy the other leg of that stool is Absolutely the management team and our technical capabilities to analyze the mining asset on behalf of our shareholders And that's the key it is around creating shareholder value But you know a lot of times you're dealing with assets. Look the mining industry is esoteric It's not, you know, a widget. We're not widget manufacturers We're not a tech company with a certain amount of users and eyeballs You kind of need a really nuanced and detailed level experience to analyze these projects And our mining team has that we built around that so their mining engineers their geologists They're able to really understand the project and the development Opportunities for these projects and the risks that go alongside of that And so when they Look at a royalty or they look at a project and they like it and there's a royalty that exists on it We've gone into the database to find that then the last leg of the stool that sometimes and often comes into play Is over the last decade. We've built a relationship and an apparatus With deal-sourcing agents that help us find the owners of these disparate royalties all over the world So whether it's the ivory coast or it's in argentina or in the bush of western australia We're able to if we don't have a person on the ground there to get in touch and make it personal in terms of our ability to transact And buy that royalty from what that you know for that group It's typically a noncore asset which means they're typically more interested in selling and so that's how the whole model Works together to find really great value for our shareholders in volume Your team specifically your technical team has been Killing it over the last couple years 24 transactions in the last since 2019 Can you put that into context compared to your peers out there? If I was looking across the landscape, what sets vox royalty apart from your peers It's certainly growth and I think it's quality of growth And if you compare it to say some of the very large cap names in our industry They these are multi-billion dollar companies. They've been around now for 20 plus years in some cases They're years that they won't do a single transaction and that's look that's okay for them Then there's a middle group of companies that will do maybe two to three transactions But us completing more than 24 separate transactions Bringing in more than 40 royalties over the last two years is unprecedented in the in the history of the industry It is unprecedented and but it's not the growth. Well, we have led the industry in growth Um in almost every respect quantity of royalties acquired revenue growth kind of you name it where we've led the industry Um in relative growth. So what I would say is the most important thing that separates us though Is our ability to find really deep value in how we are able to acquire royalties. We're not paying Premiums to bring in royalties. We're finding them at really good value and that's what's really moving the needle So when we look at metrics like return on invested capital We're really blowing away the competition and the industry and that capacity and I think for our investors That's what really matters the most. That's the most tangible validation and Value-creating initiative that our firm can possibly bring forth for our shareholders So what kyle's talking about there for our would-be patrons to the message Visit uh vox royalty dot com and you can catch a lot of the interviews done by Spencer spencer breaks this down In a way that I just what an asset for the company, you know to to find these deals and and to apply the three-tier criteria That you're talking about to to push those transactions Uh talk a little bit about your uh geopolitical uh involvement, right? Yet about 80 percent of the assets that are over in australia It's worth spending a few moments to touch base and and really kind of understand why the focus is there In those tier one countries australia canada and and the us of course But let's spend a few moments if you wouldn't just highlight us on on ys australia if you would go It's one of the things I could go on and on for for hours, which we don't have unfortunately ryan, but What we've built I think is really special We have the second largest holding of hard rock mining royalties on the continent of australia And most of those are in western australia, which last year was ranked by the frazier institute as the best mining jurisdiction That agency does a pretty good job, but it does oscillate depending on where people are investing capital but what I would tell you is On it from a on the ground perspective It is the best mining jurisdiction to build a gold mine It has one of the fastest turnaround times from discovery to production of any jurisdiction on the planet the rule of law is fantastic As a royalty holder you want good rule of law you want that no matter what mining assets and however you've invested in those But the quality of the people the quality of the rule of law The quality of the geological endowments that we have royalties over All of that make it in my opinion by far the best mining jurisdiction And by far the best mining jurisdiction have royalties that are linked to such quality assets and so What we've built is really a very low geopolitical risk portfolio And that you know the bigger players in our space traded a premium when they have a lot of nevada exposure Well, western australia is a better place to be than nevada that's saying something because nevada is truly a great mining jurisdiction Us having the second largest holding of hard rock mining royalties there is worth a premium in my opinion at the end of the day We don't get that yet. I think we will but that low geopolitical risk We do have some assets. We have an asset that's in just came into production Nigeria We sold royalties that were in Madagascar We have certainly had assets at various points in time and still do in what would certainly not be called tier one jurisdictions But the fact that we have 80 of our royalty assets or over north american or australian projects Means our investors can sleep well at night that those are in some of the best jurisdictions you can possibly be in But what we're seeing is the growth especially in western australia is driving so much value in our portfolio That's you know, I think yet to be fully appreciated in terms of our stock price I concur. Uh, I was looking over my deep dive doing my due diligence on box royalty And I kept earmarking value in a lot of different pockets of your business Let's talk about the stock Stock is uh, it doesn't fit into this camp. You're trading right now at about about 0.7 net asset value Compared to your peers. It just doesn't stack up You're about half of what the industry normally garners for a royalty company 2% up today trading at about 258 at the time of filming this video here But you guys just came off a blowout quarter. It was impressive all the way across Uh, bottom line gross profits of a million bottom line net income to 1.3 of net income You guys blew it away and you're guiding it 100 percent here for q3 So what's being missed here kyle? I hate to touch on a source spot But it was the only source spot that I can find so what gives Yeah, we're pretty candid with what our weaknesses are and what we have to improve by Absolutely can tell you the fundamentals of our business Are going so solidly in the right direction And that's a testament to the competitive advantages that we built the hard work of the team and the capabilities of our team And the execution that we've brought forth for our investors has been very very significant Um, you know in terms of guidance. Look, you're absolutely right. We doubled guidance for the year You know last quarter was amazing. We had a couple really big things That I think really drove a lot of value one was we sold royalties that we had acquired for a multiple of what we acquired We also believe there's you know a bunch of upside We we vended those royalties out to a company called electric royalties. They just fit better in their portfolio We're more precious metal focused. So there are a lot of synergies On that transaction. Also, we have while most of our business is oriented towards precious We had a blowout quarter as iron ore was all-time high prices Um, and so that you know, that's the upside that you get when you're picking the right assets Is those types of things happen and that allowed us to double our revenue guidance? For what it had been previous to a month and a half ago And so yes the fundamentals are improving but when it comes to the stock price, you know Brian what I would say is we're pretty direct on where we need to improve One of the big areas that we need to improve upon was We've been a private company For a while. We're not a you know while we just went public in may We're not a new company. There are the new companies that have entered this space and they kind of are chasing it Um, and they don't really have any competitive advantages They don't really, you know, frankly have a bunch of expertise in the space But they're there because it is um a very very good business model and executed well But we've been around for a while, but we were private and there is a you know, frankly I think I underestimated the learning curve And some of the experience that needed to be gained to be a successful publicly traded business And a lot of that is the right kind of investor awareness And making sure that hey that old proverbial saying that if a tree falls in the woods and no one's there here It doesn't really make a sound I think that applied to us a little bit But that's our fault and we're working on that and we are I think getting much better exposure now We're putting the effort that needs to be put into that capacity of the business to be successful for our shareholders To make sure that people understand box is a very viable option for commodity exposure And we believe The right kind of opportunity for a lot of investors looking for that exposure From your perspective kyle as the ceo, this is one of my my selfish personal questions that I had in the back of my mind When I was doing my deep deep dive What do you feel like in your perspective is going to be the sustain sustainability? Over the short medium and longer term Of vox as some of these, you know, you're you're paying royalties Expands you do new transition and you're building the business out Five years down the line 10 years and maybe even 20 years Is there sustainability in in a royalty company and especially for for vox Well, I think there's proven sustainability if you look at sustainability if you look at franken avada They've been around now in various forms for about 20 years. They went public when private came back public again Wheaton precious metals is a streaming company, but very very similar model of royalties I think they started in 2004. So they're closing in on 20 years here Royal gold has been around for over 20 years. That's a nasdaq listed Denver based company So there's track record for companies being very very successful over the long term, you know I would love to run the business for 20 years I think we you know the long-term value that would be created with us doing what we're doing over 20 years would be Exponential in a lot of regards, but the reality is I think we you know I don't know that we'll be around 20 years because our cost of capital is higher when we're a small cap company It's exceedingly higher than those companies that I just mentioned their cost of capital is low single digits Ours is much higher than that and so ultimately I think you know, we probably will make more sense for someone just to buy out um That has happened in the industry and I think you know While I we could be running this company for 20 years and you know, I probably love every second of it I think at some stage, um, it probably makes more sense. There is consolidation happening in the industry Uh, and for someone that has a lower cost of capital It's immediate arbitrage value for their shareholders as well when when we're acquired. So I'd say it's probably lower odds that we're around 20 years from now than you know being acquired over call it the near medium term Absolutely. Thank you for that. I appreciate the insight Kyle on that. Talk a little bit about Your key producing assets, especially focused in the in the australia and the cullia now being Segola and the janet ivy. I saw just had a press release Yesterday, so if you've got any new breaking news for our audience, that'd be awesome to touch on those key producing assets for us The really exciting part about these assets ryan is that we bought most of them pre production We've only one asset was in production. That was the browner. That's the largest producing diamond wine in south america and for what that's worth Um, and that was the only asset that we bought that was presently in production And we bought that because we got it to call it one and a half times cash flow I know you're a value investor So I'll bring up some of the value investor themes that run through our business because we're the same We just have a niche and nuance and the capability to bring value forward to to for our shareholders And so brown was the only one that was in production Then we have dry creek which is three open pits that feed was called the higginsville operation in western australia We bought that pre production. We had intelligence that led us to believe that that would come into production over the near term It exceeded our expectations hit production sooner. That's been fantastic. That's bought at, you know, color One and a half times revenue So we'll make multiples on our investment on that multiples on multiples potentially Um, same thing can be said for the second logo asset in nigeria. We bought that Um at one quarter of what we estimate that it will bring in for us over the next three years It is capped. I'll always be candid. That's capped. So you get that optionality upside But when you're expected to generate 4x what you purchased the royalty for over just a couple of year time horizon You absolutely take those deals and that's part of the value play for us Tony and I have the same thing we bought that royalty from a from a that's a producing iron operation now for us We bought that royalty from a telecom business And that's you know, when you ask like, how does that database manifest in terms of creating value for your shareholders? Finding that royalty in a telecom business is a unique feat In its own right and we bought that royalty prior to it being in production It then came into production and it was absolutely knocked out of the park for us We expect to make multiples on multiples on our money and that on that investment as well Um, and I'm missing one That would be we've named off dry creek brown a Segula Janet ivy Janet ivy jenna and that's probably the biggest one. So we bought that royalty We got intelligence that it's a big mine come in ziggins. They're based at Hong Kong listed 30 billion dollar company They have a subsidiary called norton that runs some of their gold operations in australia and we essentially got intelligence that They were going to be working on commissioning what is now and they're in process on now Is going to be the largest heap leaching project in all of australia, which is saying something So it's 400 plus million dollars of capital invested in it But we bought a royalty for about 5 million that we had pretty I mean Nothing's concrete. Nothing's concrete in this world But as good as you could feel about revenue potential as you possibly could on the near term So we had it it started producing. It's really about that that ramp up that's happening right now And so we bought it for five We expected to generate 20 or more for us at the end of the day over a nine 10 year time horizon And there's a lot of upside baked in there So that we expect will be realized, but that's what we look for So, you know your thesis of looking for value we find value Most of our competition is actually buying royalties because of the option value Look, there is option value in royalties And that's what we do that jan and ivy royalty Has upside potential beyond that 20 million dollars of revenue to us that we purchased for five It has a lot of upside potential We don't price a lot of that in when we're buying these assets obviously, but they exist other royalty companies They're basically buying assets that the gold price needs to run There needs to be discover discoveries that happen that increase the total size of the resources and reserves Production needs to increase just for them to get their money back We're buying royalties that we expect to get multiples on our invested capital over, you know rational I would call them short term duration No one else in the industry has been able to do that not not to The extent that we have with the volume that we have for our shareholders That's incredible is There's significant insider 15 percent of you guys own the shares anyway So there's some vested interest is something that I I key off on a little bit Another one of my questions and you know, we're getting toward the end of the the interview here kyle Tell our investors how it is and I typically don't cover royalty companies So this was a real treat for me to kind of do a deep dive for you guys but How is it that an investor that doesn't know a lot about royalty companies How are we supposed to value a company and you can answer this question on behalf of vox royalty And and try to distinguish, you know, some of those similarities. What makes a good royalty company? What's the pedigree that exists? What are the some of those things that we should be looking at as investors If we're going to be looking to take a potential investment or we're looking at your company It's a great question because there are certain relative valuation metrics that Essentially survive in these industries.  There's a couple of different key multiples to to pay attention to One is and this is the most probably consistent across across the sector is relative valuation or relative multiple net asset value And that asset value is basically the discounted future value of your cash flow Um, and so we trade at 0.7 to 0.6 times that asset value where most of our closest peers are trading at North of one and a half times, but typically even north of two times an asset value So just with what we have now we would expect to realize a re-rating at some point for our shareholders We're working very hard on that part of that's fundamentals driven part of that is investor awareness driven um, but That's a that's a very significant bump up in share price from where we stand today The other the other multiple that you would look at would be cash flow and some of our closest columns are trading at Um, and again, I'm not sitting here to validate some of these multiples, but I know you point to them as references Are trading at 200 times? Revenue, um, and if you look at 2023 as our revenue starts to I think it's going to continue on the trajectory That's been on they call it a normalized rate of you know analysts expecting it to be around 8 million 8 to 10 million We're trading at the low end of the range on that basis as well So we have I think one of the most deeply discounted businesses in terms of share price and and relative valuation that exists in the industry We're starting to see momentum in the right direction Some of the things that we needed to do better in terms of how we you know control stock that comes into the market and things like that We've done we've raised 30 million since we went public. We have no intention of going back to the markets To raise equity so really I think we've really now Got the ship with a lot of momentum going the right direction We fixed the things that we needed to fix so that the fundamentals could prove out and also be rewarded in share price Sure do What do we miss kyle? For the viewers that tune into the channel and there there are a lot that are interested in your company. There's no doubt I'm one of them What did we miss we fill our investors in on on something that we didn't highlight that you want to make sure and get through To our to our viewers Well, first of all, greatly appreciate the opportunity to be an independent investor. It's it's truly a privilege For me and and for vox Royalty corp to be on the program You know, what I would tell you is we built I built this company The the reason it was built was for a generous investor that wants exposure to commodities We obviously find ourselves in one of the most I think um You know difficult times from an inflation perspective of where where do you put your investment? Where can you make money and where can you you know? You can call it a hedge or you can call it. I need to make money even when there's inflation And I need to make more of it when there's inflation Well, how do you do that because it's it's typically a deleterious time for for most stocks and most industries Whereas we usually have a tailwind from that type of thematic unfolding really before our eyes So this business was built for this time. It just so happens I mean back when I founded the company and started building it 2013 2012 Inflation was not at the top of everyone's minds But I wanted to have that build an outlet that was reliable That was straightforward that offers investors the right risk-adjusted exposure without you having to be an expert in geology or mining engineering, but understanding that You have that exposure you have that leveraged upside to metal prices But you've got a lot less downside and that comes in the form of just the quantity of Assets that we have both in production coming into production The different commodity mix that we present even though it's mostly precious metals 70 precious You still get the tailwinds that kick in when other metals do exceedingly well Like we've seen in iron ore and copper and other metals So we've really tried to create a business that we believe distilled the best kind of value You could possibly be looking for when you're looking for a good investment in commodities I think we've delivered that and we're going to continue building shareholder value So it's it's really about continuing to build what we've already started We've got tailwinds to our business the fundamentals continue to prove out And I believe you know, we've got the momentum going in the right direction I review a lot of companies kyle and I believe you will do that Keep your nose to the grindstone keep leaning on that technical team Because I tell you what you guys got of expertise that is unparalleled Across the industry when compared to your peers for the would-be investors canadian tsx ventures ticker assemble vox On the us markets.

Hello and welcome to the session. Today I am here to help you with polynomials, so let it is called the following question. If the polynomial x4 minus 6xq plus 16x square minus 25x plus 10 is divided by another polynomial x square minus 2x plus k, the remainder comes out to be x plus a, find k and a. So let us first write the key idea that we will be using another problem. According to division algorithm we have p of x equal to g of x into q of x plus r of x, that is, dividend is equal to divisor into quotient plus remainder. Now let us write our solution. Given to us this p of x is equal to x4 minus 6xq plus 16x square minus 25x plus 10 and g of x is equal to x square minus 2x plus k and r of x is equal to x plus a. We have to find k and a. By key idea we have p of x is equal to g of x into q of x plus r of x or p of x taking this rxx to left hand side so we get minus r of x is equal to g of x into q of x.  Opening this bracket we get minus x minus a is equal to x square minus 2x plus k into q of x. Now solving it further we get x4 minus 6xq plus 16x square minus 25 minus x is 26x plus 10 minus a is exactly divisible by x square minus 2x plus k. Now we divide x4 minus 6xq plus 16x square minus 26x plus 10 minus a by x square minus 2x plus k by using long division method. Therefore our evident will be x4 minus 6xq plus 16x square minus 26x plus 10 our divisor will be x square minus 2x plus k. Therefore now dividing it we get x4 divided by x square gives you x square minus 2xq plus kx. Now solving this 26x plus again minus 4xq divided by x square gives minus 4x minus 2x into minus 4x plus 8x square into k gives. Now again subtracting it don't forget to change the signs into 26 minus 4k divided by x square gives into k gives plus k plus k square and our quotient as x square equal to 0 equal to 0. Solving this we get 2k is equal to 10 which implies k is equal to 5 k is equal to 5. Now solving this we get 10 minus a substituting the value of k is equal to 5 from here we get minus 8 into 5 plus 5 square equal to 0 which implies 10 minus a minus 40 plus 25 equal to 0 which implies minus a minus 5 is equal to 0 which implies a is equal to minus 5 therefore a is equal to minus 5. Hence required equal to 5 and a is equal to minus 5. Hope you understood this problem. Bye and have a nice day.

So, work hard, have friends who are supportive. Unona, it's a journey. But when you get there, is... Yani, sijwini, shambra, shambra. Shambra, shambra, shambra. Ya, ya, ya. There's a thread I saw once on Twitter. Ili kwa ya waschana. So, Ili kwa na sema. Beauty has gotten me out of. Now, what wanna comment. Kuna mwenya, siya ikwa kwa accidentaka tokatu yivi. The person she had an accident with. Ali mga letu, wow. Your story, Keisha.  I wouldn't say that because... How now? For real. Because I think my beauty in doi me fanya, ni me banja places ingene. What happened? A story for another day, but it has been a hassle. Like, I didn't start a music class. I professionally started music last year. But, Ili anza way back, na nili witi a challenges mob, by the way, mob, ile mob enye. So, you ni sema mani ache. Sema! Sema mani ache. Sema. So, finally, let me just cut it short. Let me make it a short story. Ni membit artist fly ni well known in Kenya. Amini ambe, eh, sizuna, unaimba, fiti ni ni ni ni, come to studio. Nuna, ni meinda, come to studio on Tuesday, ni meinda studio, ni me record, ni meofanya bitu zote.  So, na record, na roadi inje, na skizangoma zangu, na kunyo magi, na roadi. Eh, siste, ni mefika home, I took a shot of Ballentine. Ika kwa ni me kunyo a whole bottle of Ballentine. Kuma ni leki om tsele kwa studio. So, for real, Idi sayi na kumbukaiyo story, I think, ninge kwa ni megit, kitango. Laki ni yo stuffi ni traumatize, vibhaya sana, onona. So, I wouldn't say my beauty sells me out. It only made it worse and had for me, kufika, onona. It's really a hassle. I understand. So, eh, ena kubali kapia. Did you find out something about how you didn't know? You are welcome. You are welcome. You are welcome. It's a hassle for upcoming artists, most especially your females. Muna skengaus, mademona unge kwa kwa tivi and stuff. It really happens. It has happened to me. Kuna winiwana joy story, it is really hard. Onona, eh. So, you can't say like my beauty sells me out. Kilam tu nimrembo. Onona, kilam tu nimrembo. But so will you say. A very known artist in Kenya. I want to mention names. I'm not even going to ask you to. I expect your privacy and it would be a whole other thing when we start talking about it. But let it be a lesson to any other artist. Anyone who wants to support an upcoming artist. Don't do that. Onona joy. Kamani kwa na talent. Sell me out. Sell me out. Like I'm under you. Onona, like I'm under you. I'm not fighting you. We are all securing the bag. We are all aiming at something. We are all focusing on one thing. Onona winiwana. Onona, it doesn't make sense. So, yeah. If I can relate those. Usyona umeske wuia. Tamimi mi nishakwa. I cannot remember what radio personality kumuki jina kesa e. But I quit kaziake kwanza. Adlapa kanda YouTube akamzokusana. Kuna sashda ke li kwa kuna produce anam katamigu. You're supposed to be on the same wavelength. You're supposed to be doing the same thing. Aparatuma kasi riko from nowhere. So, for her it was way too much. And then she eventually just quit. I don't know if she has another job in the same field right now. But I can honestly tell you that thing happens. It happens. It does, it does. Ujuwi mbonam tuamu kasi diki. Atom kikamdu wunge. Bad or true, bad or true. Just because we have soft, soft face and soft voice, they want not to bully you. But it's going to be okay. Nona mefika. Nani wejika. Nani wejika. Nani wejika. Nani wejika. Aki, you're saying J is on point. I'm getting out of there. But then she's a makeup artist. Julie. That's why you look so blue. Yes. Ngoja. Let me start from my team. I have a very supportive team. A very supportive team. Team captain. I will say I want to make sure I'm on time. My makeup is okay. My outfit is okay. My everything. Lio, nimi kujama na kumaneja wango. Nimi kujama na muwa wango.

Hey everyone, this is Raghu. I'm a solution architect at Red Hat. It's very nice to be between you and lunch, but I promise not to take much time. Let's get started. So what will we discuss? We're going to look at key challenges and what's Chris in a box, Chibox, and then some of the architecture and see if we can do some demo. I know we don't have a lot of time, but I'll see how much we can get through this. So when it comes to key challenges, analytical techniques, they can have a huge impact on radiology, but there are always challenges, right? When it comes to innovation, all the innovative techniques, they're not useful if you don't integrate them into clinical workflows. Now the second part is when you think of hospitals like in rural or developing countries, they don't have a lot of on-site computational power to do all the analytics. And the researchers, they also don't have access to the data so that they will be able to develop some new techniques on the, or they don't even have the computational resource. So let's see how Chris in a box can address these challenges, right? Now, what's Chris in a box? It's a self-provisioning system and it can schedule containerized compute on the edge. From a domain perspective, it can autonomously analyze the patient data and then it can push rules back into clinical systems that are operating at the edge, right? Now, the picture that you see here is it's giving you a view of a clinician or a researcher sitting somewhere in a hospital and they're trying to leverage Chris and run some analysis and then they take a look at the reports, right? Now, that brings us a question like, what's Chris? It's an open source project. It's a container platform for medical research, like medical image processing and compute. Who develops it? It's developed by Advanced Computing Group in the FNNDSC at the Boston Children's Hospital and we have a collaboration with Red Hat and New England Research Cloud and a few others. And there's the Boston Children's team. We from Red Hat, we work closely with Boston Children's from a Chris project perspective. I'm sure we have Jennings as well in the audience here. Hey, Jennings. Now, when it comes to architecture, we're using Ansible. I do know there's a lot of blocks over here and different different components, but let me explain in simple terms. Now, for us to be able to get Chris deployed in an edge device, all I do here is I go to my Git repo and I do a Git commit. And when I do a Git commit, I can actually do the changes for the specific packages on an operating system or I can also do the changes related to the application itself. And once I do the Git commit, the repository is configured so that it triggers the Ansible automation platform. And as you see here, we're using OS build collection and it's gonna do a number of tasks so that it's able to make us the updates available, which means think of it like this. The first provisioning, you will need the ISO itself so that you can boot it. And in this case, this ISO does come with the application. Now, after that, we will think of the lifecycle management, right? Like, how do we make the updates? Now, in this case, when I do the updates, once the image is built, all I need to do is I just go to my edge device and do RPMOS tree upgrade. I'm not gonna go into details about RPMOS tree, but that's a way of getting some updates in the context of edge. And so that's an oversimplified way of telling what the solution does, but there's a lot of work put behind this to make it all happen for the automation. Now, let's see a little bit in reality what it means. So, for the demo purpose, I just go here and that takes to the git repo here. Now, remember, I talked about doing some changes. Now, in this case, I'm not doing like any specific changes, it's all there, but just to kind of show how it works, I'm bumping the blueprint version. What was it before? Eight, I'm gonna do it as nine, one dot two dot nine. And I'm gonna do a git commit, right? Now, let's go back and see what it's gonna do in the Ansible automation platform. Now, these are multiple templates and if you go to the job, if you see, there is a couple of jobs that got triggered. Well, in reality, it's gonna take around 30 minutes for everything to be finished, but I just wanted to show you the template real quick. This one, it's still waiting on something. So, okay, so it's starting to be doing some things, right? So basically what's happening here is, it's gonna interact with the image builder and then it's gonna build the image with all the artifacts and then it's gonna copy those like a Tor file into a repo and that's when it's available for the device to be able to pull in those upgrades. Now, this is great from a technology perspective, right? If you talk to someone saying, hey, I have a ton of devices and how do I automate them so that I can deploy them at the edge? It makes them super happy. Now, let's think from a patient care perspective or a clinician perspective. For that, I'd like to show you a pipeline. Now, in this case, this is a leg length analysis pipeline. Basically, that can be used to identify some discrepancies. So think of it like this. Chris, when you're running Chris on edge and then you would actually use multiple plugins, which means Chris has the ability to do different type of analysis. Not just the leg length, but other ones too. But in this case, imagine, this is an animation, by the way. So it takes some time for you to go into Chris and run the analysis, but just to make the use of time here, this is an animated view and when I click on it, if you see here, it's receiving some data from PAX. If you're in healthcare, I'm sure most of you would know what a PAX is or PAX arrays. Now, once the data is received, it's uploading to Chris. And this is where it gets interesting, like finding landmarks with AI. It's using a specific Chris plugin that will be underlying using a train model, pre-train model, and that will be finding some landmarks. And once that's done, it's gonna be doing the measurement of lengths based off the X-ray, which means, so this is another plugin too. And see, it also has some data over there once it's done, and then it's pushing it to the PAX. So again, I'm not a healthcare expert, but that's the data. Someone like clinician or a doctor would be very interested, and it helps them to get an additional perspective, not just based on what they remember in their memory, but if you think of the data that's coming across from multiple research organizations, so this helps them to make some better decisions. So this is what you can do technically by being on the edge, meaning you don't really need to have access to the internet, assuming that the Chris is set up already in the box, and you would run this, essentially any hospital or a remote location so that it helps the doctors or the clinicians to get some better analysis, and also other value around how you could do automatically all this, like for example, using Ansible. So this is bothered, but I'm open if you have any questions. Yeah. Let me explain. So the edge device.yaml, so if you see there are multiple things here, the first part, if you remember the image I've shown, that's the blueprint. So the blueprint holds certain values. So for example, this is where I could have the version and all, but then there are certain things that let's say you have a new user, you can add the SSH key. So this is essentially where all the variables are being held, right? Now, once you have it, you're gonna specify this particular file, and if you go back to this playbook, so this is referring to this particular file that we just talked about, right? So we are externalizing all the necessary details that may need to go into the edge device using this edge device.yaml, and then we're using this particular playbook, and this is interacting with Ansible collection, always build, and that has multiple roles to do, like for example, how is it gonna be, like the image builder needs a blueprint, and once it gets the blueprint, it starts building the image, and then you have other things too that the always build collection does, and this is how it works, and you have a web hook over here. Let me see if I can show that. So you have a web hook that's configured with Ansible automation platform, so which is why basically when I, so I've said it in a way where on this particular branch, I'm gonna do some changes and I make a commit, and that's when it triggers over here, and then this is when the Ansible automation platform takes over the responsibility of everything that it has to do. So it's gonna help us both ways, like the first thing is, you can get a brand new image that you can put in any edge device. Also, if you want to make some changes, you still can do that. All you need to do is you just go ahead and update the variables over there in the edge device.yaml, and you just wait for few minutes till the update's already, and just imagine you would log in into some edge device, and then you do the updates as needed. Yeah, so thanks for asking. In this particular situation, we have used part-man to keep it simple. So this runs part-man containers on the device, but we also have the same work to be done using Microsoft so that we have two different versions of implementing the solution. Yes, to answer your question part-man. Yes, indeed. So in this case, I haven't have a real deployment that I can show you, but it's a work in progress, but you're right. So we would go ahead and go to cockpit, and you would be able to see the containers. I think I'm out of time. Thanks everyone.


Hello everyone, welcome to this course on supply chain digitization which is offered by IIAM Mumbai. This course is jointly being taken by three of the faculty members including myself, Professor Priyanka Varma and my colleagues, Professor Sushmita and Professor Devabrata Das. So far we have covered a lot of concepts on supply chain management and about digitalization and analytics. So this week we are focusing more on analytics particularly in this module how analytics can be used for solving supply chain related problems. In the last session we have started our discussions about facility location, facility selection and supply chain network design related problems. In the previous sessions we have seen that how break-even analysis can be used for selecting a facility when you are knowing that what is the volume that is required to be handled these facilities can help you in completing that requirement in minimum cost. So last session if you remember we have used a very simple analysis like break-even analysis to take up this decision. So in this session we will continue our discussion on analytics in supply chain management and further on supply chain network optimization related topics. The next topic that we are going to talk in detail is about facility location. To understand this topic we will try to look into this through a case. As we know that location of a facility is a strategic decision. It impacts the different problems related to supply chain on a long term basis and that it plays a critical role in deciding the performance of the supply chain. So we will be talking about how can we take facility location related decision using a simple case over here. So before we start let us try to look into our case. This case is related to a manufacturer which is engaged in making a high quality equipments and cooking ranges and currently it is operating a single assembly factory which is located near Mumbai and with this facility alone this manufacturer is trying to serve the entire Indian market. So as you can see from here the existing facility is just one which is a assembly factory and this facility plays a very important role as the same facility or the same manufacturing plant is actually trying to serve the entire market for the given product. Now this product has gained popularity and because of which there is rapid growth in demand is observed and because of this increase in demand the CEO of the company has decided to make another factory so that this increased demand can be catered. However, in this given situation the supply chain manager is playing a critical role as his job is to find out a suitable location for this new factory which can be used for serving this excess demand. Similarly in terms of its parts which are used for making the final products the plants of these parts are situated in Chennai in Kolkata and in Hyderabad and the responsibility of these parts plant is to ensure that the parts are available to this new factory as well. There is already some research has been done and it is found that the new factory is required to serve the markets of Delhi, Bangalore, Mumbai, Pune and Chennai. So we can see that there are three sources or three suppliers which are connected which are required to be connected to this plant and if you observe this plant is required to serve the market requirement for Delhi, Bangalore, Mumbai, Pune and Chennai which means there are total five markets which this new factory will be serving. So there are three suppliers and five customers for particularly for this factory. Now here we have also been given with another set of information which is about the coordinate locations of every market is known to us. The demand not only market as well as these suppliers, the demand are given to us and what is the supply from each parts plant is also known to us. In addition to this the shipping cost for each supply source or market is also provided. So these are the set of information or the parameters which are already given to us about the given case and considering these cost, demand, supply and the coordinate locations we now have to decide where we should make our new factory. So here this is the task that is we have to find out the optimal location. This is very important. We have to find out the optimal location for the new factory in India considering the above given data and other constraints related to supply, demand and so on. So how do we handle this type of situation? This problem can be again solved to a very simple approach called as center of gravity approach which is based on the coordinate location information of the given facilities and considering the demand from these facilities and the distances between them this method can help us in identifying the optimal location of the plant where this factory can be located. Let us try to understand this method of center of gravity. For this we already had discussed that we are required to have the idea about the coordinate location of the markets as well as the supply source also. So in general we are saying that let capital X and capital Y which can be the set of the coordinates of these market locations and the supply locations. Let capital F is again it is a indicates is a variable which is representing the cost of shipping one unit for one mile between the facility and either to the market or to the supply source. So both ways this cost of shipping is considered when we are talking about one unit this one unit can be considered in form of a piece, a pallet, a truck load or a ton depending upon the type of product that you are considering this unit can be decided and accordingly the shipping cost can also be identified. In parallel to that we are also knowing the quantity to be shipped between the facility and market or the supply source which is given as capital D. So if you are trying to find out the location of the new facility where this facility should be created such that the total cost should be minimized. So let us see that how this total cost is calculated. In order to calculate the total cost we first have to find out the distance which is shown as cap small d the distance between the facility at the unknown location because we are trying to find out the location of the new facility and is considered as unknown and is taken as the coordinate X and Y and the existing supply source or market. So this distance is calculated using this formula. So how do we do this? Let me try to demonstrate to you. Suppose this is the location of our new facility and its coordinates are unknown to us that is why the coordinates are given as X and Y whereas you have got 3 supply sources. So their coordinates are given as X1, Y1, X2, Y2, X3, Y3 these are your 3 supply sources S1, S2, S3 and you have got 5 markets whose demands are required to be fulfilled which is M1, M2, M3, M4 and M5 their coordinates are given as X4, Y4, X5, Y5 and so on. So we can see that there are 3 suppliers supply sources and 5 markets. So these supply sources will be supplying to this factory and again this factory will be supplying to the market requirement of these 5 cities. So if you have to calculate the distance between the new facility and any one of these supply sources or markets we can calculate it using this formula which is the distance calculation formula also called as Euclidean distance formula and how do we calculate them? This is given as if you have to calculate the distance between 2 points as whose coordinates are given as X1, Y1 and X2, Y2 then the distance can be calculated as X1 minus X2 whole square plus Y1 minus Y2 whole square. So using this Euclidean distance formula the all the distances between the supply source node and the factory and the node to these markets are calculated and are tabulated in the form of the respective distances. In order to calculate the total cost we can use these distances in our formula very easily. So if we have to find out the total cost this becomes very easy. The shipping cost is given to us as per unit and per mile. So this needs to be multiplied by the number of units that is being transported between the 2 facilities multiplied by the distance between the 2 facilities. So that is why we can see that the total cost formula is given to us as the product of the distance into the quantity into the shipping cost and this is summed over all the combinations of the facilities. So this way we can calculate our total cost but remember that so far we are not knowing the coordinates of our new facilities to be located and that is why this is kept as blank. So how do we solve this problem? In order to solve this problem a very simple approach is shown over here in the form of center of gravity method and we can see from here that we can enter the problem these are the steps which can be done for solving the problem using center of gravity. It starts with the first step as data entry. The second step is about deciding your decision variables. The third step is for the distance calculation. The fourth step is about the total transportation cost calculation and the last step is about using the solver tool which is available in Excel and using this function optimizing the total cost to minimum value and finding out the value of x and y that is the coordinate of the new facility accordingly. So let us try to understand the steps one by one. In step one we will be first entering our data. So this is very simple we have already been given with all the details about the unit shipping cost, unit quantity and the coordinates of the supply sources and the market. So in the first step we will be entering all the data and this again for this problem supporting Excel sheet is provided. So you can also refer to the Excel sheet and you can see that how this data is entered over there. In the second step we will be talking about deciding our decision variables. If you remember the location of the facility, the new facility which is required to be made is considered as x and y and that is why we will define two new cells as x and y where the coordinates of this new factor is unknown to us and this is kept as 0 initially. In the third step we will be calculating all the distances between the potentials for factory location to each source or market. We already have discussed about the formula for calculating the distance which follows the Euclidean distance formula. So using that formula we can perform the calculations of the distance function and here we have also given to you a reference for using the cells for calculating the distances and the same can be followed. This is also given in the Excel sheet, we will try to demonstrate to you in the Excel sheet also. But remember we are using the Euclidean distance formula over here. So once we have got the distance we now have to calculate the total transportation cost. The total transportation cost is the product of all the three values which is your cost, shipping cost, into quantity, into your distances. So we can see from here we are using a function called as sum product which will multiply these three elements which includes your distances, your quantities and your shipping value, shipping cost per unit is also considered. The sum product of these three parameters is calculated which will give us the total cost in C21 cell. So now if you look into this sheet we can see that the values of X and Y as it was initially assumed as 0 and 0, this cost is coming with a very high value and it is not optimized yet. So in the last step we have to calculate we have to actually use this optimization function and try to optimize this total cost to find out the optimal value of X and Y. For this purpose let me shift to the excel sheet and try to demonstrate to you about all the steps that we have done so far. So let us look into our excel sheet once again and you can see that all the previous steps that we have discussed so far are done and our sheet is ready to see the steps related to optimization. The data related to the supply sources are available over here. You have got three supply sources coming from channel Kolkata and Hyderabad, their shipping cost per unit per mile is given to us. The quantity to be delivered that these supply sources can deliver is also given to us over here and then you can also see in terms of the coordinates of X and Y over here which is given as for the three different supply sources. In order to calculate the distances between the supply sources and the X and Y coordinates of the new facility you can see from here the distances are calculated using the Euclidean function that we have already discussed and all the distances are shown over here corresponding to all the supply sources for your new facilities to be located. Similarly, the data related to markets are given over here we have got five markets, their shipping costs are given, their quantities that is their requirements are given and their coordinates are also mentioned over here. So from here the distances are again calculated for the new facility. Now once we have the distances we have simply used some product function which has multiplied the shipping cost into quantity into the distance and this will help us in calculating the total cost. But remember this is not optimized. So what to do for optimizing this cost? We want to minimize this cost in such a way so that the facility or the plant when it is located at this coordinate the cost, the total cost of this transportation is minimized. So in a way we have to find out this coordinate for the new facility which help us in minimizing the overall cost. So for this we will be using this function called as solver. In order to install the solver you can go to this function called as data which is available over here and here we have this function called as solver which is available in excel in freely to everyone. So here in the first step you need to set the objective. Setting the objective means defining that cell value where you have decided about your objective function which you are trying to minimize or maximize. Here our objective is to minimize the total cost. So we have decided cell number B20 to keep over here and because you want to minimize it so that is why it is we have selected the radio button of minimization. By changing variable cells means that which are your decision variables and how changing your decision variables is going to affect your objective function. As we know that here we are trying to change the location variables of the new facility these are our decision variables and that is why we have selected B18 and B19 as the non-linear equation that is why in order to solve this problem we will be using this function called as GA-RG non-linear over here to minimize our cost. So you have different option but we will be going ahead with GA-RG non-linear reason being the cost function turned out to be non-linear. So on solving this problem we can see that the solution has converged to the current solution and all the constraints are satisfied. It means the solution obtained is optimal and let us keep the solver solution. Now you can see from here that our value of x and y which was initially as 0 and 0 has now changed into around 500 and 600. So that means that this is the new coordinate at which you can make your new facility. So how do we take this decision to the next level? If we see very closely we can come back to our slides and let us refer it once again. So on using the solver we have seen the steps of solver which can be done by going through the data tab in that you will see solver option and you can follow the steps that we have discussed so far and enter your data in this option and on optimization you will get your cost which is very minimal and the optimal factory location is found at around 500 and 600 coordinate. So this coordinate is given by the gravity model and if you can go back and check this is also the coordinate of location of delis obviously you can see that one of the market at that site you can locate your factory and it can help you in minimizing the total cost. But suppose due to some constraint you are not able to make this factory at this optimally decided location then what to do? So the solution for this case is the managers can explore some nearby areas which are close to this optimal coordinates and maybe that particular area has got sufficient logistical infrastructure or other type of infrastructure or maybe the work force is easily available at those nearby places and that is a very suitable environment for locating your new factory. So we can say that this is this type of solution can help us in deciding the location of the new facility which can be further used for deciding your next level of decision about final facilities location and if this coordinate is not suitable for any reason the nearby area can be explored which serves your requirement to the best. So with this part we have completed the facility location decision using center of gravity method and this is again a very interesting approach which helps us in deciding the location of a single facility by considering the coordinates of the supply sources and their markets and along with them their supply demand is also considered and the distances are further calculated which is then translated to calculate the total cost and minimizing this total cost will give you the location of the facility where this total cost is optimized with this we will be ending today's session. Thank you everyone have a nice day.


The new year is quickly approaching and many people are looking to bring it in on the lake. Fishing experts are expecting a good bite this weekend on Lake Malax. Our Logan Gay has more. This New Year's weekend is looking very promising for anglers on Lake Malax. It's going to be packed this year. Some years not so much but this year the bite is on so everybody if you want to fish come now and go fishing. Anglers have reported catching record numbers of fish this year. Our lake Malax cycles about every 10 years so we're on an upswing. You know it's not unheard of at a night bite to catch 20 to 40 fish in you know like five, six hours. Fishermen like Graham Anderson travel all the way from the cities just to get in on the big bite. We heard the walleyes were biting on Malax so we thought well wrap up the cabin we might as well go see if we can catch a few. And this year shiners and fatheads are the bait of choice. The shiners they use for like a tip up or bob fishing and if they're jigging because they got to kill it they got to chop off the tail so they use the cheaper one it's that head. And if you're looking for a good spot experts say try the mud. Right now the fishing is really good about 15 to 19 feet off the brake line. You can also like I said try the mud now the last couple of days they've been doing okay on the mud. I heard the fish are biting in the evenings now so head out in the evenings. Wishing everyone on and off the lake a happy new year in Garrison Logan Gay Lakeland News. Now tuts bait and tackle plans to be open on New Year's Day to service any anglers needs.
