Dear investors and everyone who supports Imigize.

The Imigize project has come a long way, and we have achieved extremely positive results, both in business development and in working with investors.

We are working on the launch of the first Measurement Center in China and by early 2019 we will begin work with Chinese footwear manufacturers. This will allow us launching the Imigize service on the Chinese and US markets.

We are actively working with Russian top online retailers, constantly increasing the customer data base of the service.

Working with European footwear manufacturers and opening of a Measurement Center in Europe are in the process of negotiations.

We can see that the Public Sale does not bring significant financial results for the crypto projects of late so we shift focus to work with institutional investors.

We are creating a syndicate of funds interested in investing in the Imigize, and planning a big advertising campaign at events to promote the project in the crypto community.

Based on the latest results of activity, we prepare the calculations of the economy of the token and are ready to provide these documents to interested in cooperation funds.

As a guarantee for our investors we are launching the process of registering our token in accordance with SEC USA requirements.

In this regard, and with the approval of our advisers and current investors, we are reporting the postponement of the timing of the TGE Imigize.

Below is the new time line:

Dear users of the Imigize service!

We are pleased to announce the opening of the first Imigize ScanPoint in Moscow. Now you can visit the brand store Runlab on Novinsky Boulevard 12, equipped with a 3D scanner and make a 3D scan of your feet.

Modern technologies make possible creating high-precision 3D models, including precise reconstruction of the bodies in 3D.

The precise 3D reconstructions open good prospects for further industrial application of the data, for example in the automotive industry (comfortable seats), medicine (creation of prostheses), production of the goods for the sport.

Clothes and footwear industries are very interested in using personal anthropometric data. These are huge markets with an immense variety of goods. According to Statista statista.com the United States footwear market turnover by 2022 will be US$32,153B and the US clothes market is expected to amount US $363,73B.

However, collecting and storing users’ 3D anthropometric data contains a hidden complexity.

The work on blocking technology in the online sale of shoes and clothing has allowed us to take a fresh look at the function of the token and its purpose in the global ecosystem of Imigize.

The initial functionality of the Token Imigize (IMGZ) was limited to the function of a means of payment between the online store and the IMIGIZE service and was less of an interest to ordinary shopper of footwear and clothing using fitting service.

Having redesigned the concept of Imigize token (IMGZ), we endowed it with the function of stimulating the interaction of clothing and footwear manufacturers, online retailers and buyers. Now the token will be interesting not only to online shops, but also to ordinary buyers.

Token Imigize (IMGZ) is used by online stores as compensation to the shoppers for access to his personal anthropometric data and the comfort profile. The buyer, receiving Imigize tokens (IMGZ) applies them as a discount when buying clothes and shoes in any store connected to the service Imigize.

The buyer, having received tokens for creating and entering their anthropometric data into the blockchain (for example, by scanning their feet), can be guaranteed to exchange them through Imigize Service Blockchain for a cash discount for the next purchase. In addition, the buyer receives tokens, agreeing to receive a personal mailing from online stores in the form of recommendations for models of shoes and clothes, selected personally for him on the basis of the criteria of individual comfort.

More details about the updated concept of the token can be found in our whitepaper.
