Investors seeking early-stage growth opportunities will have the chance to hear directly from management teams of 19 OTCQB-listed companies during the OTCQB Virtual Investor Conference on August 5-6, 2026. The event, organized by OTC Markets Group and featuring B2i Digital as the Official Marketing Partner, spans a broad range of sectors, including gold, critical minerals, natural hydrogen, artificial intelligence, and clinical-stage biotechnology.
The conference is structured around the OTCQB Venture Market, providing a platform for companies that are often dual-listed on the ASX, TSX, TSX Venture Exchange, CSE, and AQSE. Each presenting company will have 30 minutes for a live presentation and Q&A session, with one-on-one meetings available through the conference platform. Replays will be posted on the B2i Digital and OTC Markets YouTube channels, ensuring broad accessibility.
Among the highlights, the agenda features Nord Precious Metals Mining Inc. on Wednesday morning, followed by Pecoy Copper Corp., Tocvan Ventures Corp., and Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. Thursday's lineup includes Sparc Technologies Limited, HyTerra Ltd. (a natural hydrogen explorer), SalesCloser Technologies Ltd. (an AI software firm), and Oncotelic Therapeutics, Inc. (a clinical-stage biotech), among others. The full list is subject to change, but as of August 3, 2026, it represents a cross-section of the innovation and resource development happening on the OTCQB.
B2i Digital's role as the marketing partner is central to the event's reach. The company leverages its proprietary network of over 1.7 million retail and institutional market participants, driving a qualified audience to the presentations and subsequent meetings. This visibility engine has supported presenting companies at more than 120 investor conferences, transitioning them "From Marketing to Meetings."
David Shapiro, CEO of B2i Digital, emphasized the value of direct engagement: "I think like an investor, an investment banker, and a marketer all at once, and the three rarely agree on anything except this: nothing beats hearing a CEO answer a question they didn't script. The OTCQB Venture Market is where growth stories get written early, and for two days investors can question the authors directly, from gold exploration in the Northwest Territories to conversational AI in Vancouver."
The conference underscores the OTCQB's role as a launching pad for emerging companies, offering investors early access to stories that may not yet be on larger exchanges. For those interested in participating, registration and company profiles are available at the conference platform: Virtual Investor Conferences.
B2i Digital, founded in 2021 by former Maxim Group investment banker David Shapiro, positions itself as "The Capital Markets Matchmaker," connecting public companies with investors through its Featured Conference, Featured Company, and Featured Expert programs. The firm's media assets include web, video, social, and email channels, amplified by national newswire syndication.
Virtual Investor Conferences, a property of OTC Markets Group, provides an interactive forum for publicly traded companies to meet directly with investors online. Throughout the year, these conferences feature companies from exchanges worldwide, including NYSE, Nasdaq, TSX, TSXV, CSE, ASX, LSE, and OTC Markets. The August event is unique in its focus on the OTCQB Venture Market itself, offering a snapshot of the diverse opportunities available on that exchange.
