Venture-backed Slyce to commence public trading in July

Slyce Inc, a visual search technology platform targeting the retail sector, will commence trading on the TSX Venture Exchange on July 21. The new listing, to appear under the trading symbol "SLC", completes an agreement with Oculus Ventures Corp (TSX-V: OVX) announced in April. As a condition to completing the deal, Slyce closed a private placement financing that raised gross proceeds of $12 million and will be converted into common shares of the company. With offices in Calgary and Toronto, Slyce has been backed by angel investors and venture capital firms since early 2013.
