Uplisting to the OTCQB is expected to improve the company's position in the public markets and increase visibility to the investment community

PR Newswire

NEW YORK , March 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- VNUE, Inc. (OTCMKTS: VNUE), a leading music technology company, today announced that it has initiated a strategy to upgrade its position in the public markets and increase its visibility to a wider range of investors through the process of uplisting from the OTC Pink Open Market to the OTCQB Venture Market.  The company has submitted OTCQB application materials to OTC Markets Group, operator of OTCMarkets.com.

With significant advances in the company's Soundstr music recognition technology, the anticipated bounce-back of the concert industry later in 2021 for the company's live recording business, and a market valuation growth of over 1000% percent since last year, management believes that VNUE is in the ideal position to uplist to the OTCQB Venture Market and gain the increased visibility that the OTCQB provides.

Zach Bair , CEO of VNUE, said, "Uplisting to OTCQB is a very important milestone in our plan to grow the company and upgrade its position in the public markets.  We believe that trading on the OTCQB will increase visibility to the investment community, particularly to institutional investors, as we continue to solidify our position as a cutting-edge music technology company."

The company already meets OTCQB Venture Market compliance requirements by filing audited annual financials prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP by a PCAOB auditor and maintains a Verified Company Profile at OTCMarkets.com.
