Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - March 13, 2023) - Mijem Newcomm Tech Inc. (CSE: MJEM) ("Mijem" or the "Company"), a technology and social networking company, announces that it has received confirmation from the United States Patent and Trademark Office of the approval of the Company's application to patent its proprietary method for the collection and processing of online data (U.S application number 15/509,979).

The Company intends to suspend its marketplace services this month, allowing the Company to focus on a more fulsome implementation of this patented technology which will lead to new, more efficient ways to engage with, and advertise to, Generation Z consumers. Concurrently, Mijem is actively exploring additional and complementary opportunities to expand and create shareholder value.

As part of this strategic re-focus, the Company's CEO, Laurie Freudenberg, and CFO, Gord Tomkin, have resigned effective March 17, 2023. Ms. Freudenberg will continue to serve as a Director of Mijem and Stephen Coates, a current Director, will assume the role of CEO on an interim basis. Grove Corporate Services Ltd. ("Grove"), a company controlled by Mr. Coates, has been retained to provide corporate administrative and management services through this transition period, including the appointment of Jordan Domey CPA-CA, as Interim Chief Financial Officer.

Mijem expresses appreciation to Ms. Freudenberg, Mr. Tomkin and Mr. Erin Oor - who tendered his resignation as a Director on March 2, 2023 - for their contributions and service to the Company and wishes Mr. Tomkin and Mr. Oor well in their future endeavours.
