Leonovus Announces Partnership with Italian Distributor – Systematika Distribution

“Our end-users have rapidly growing petabyte-scale unstructured data, originating from a variety of sources. They are very concerned about data protection and security, with critical audit and compliance requirements like GDPR needing to be addressed. With Leonovus they will have the flexibility to store their data in a hybrid or multi-cloud architecture, with a cryptographically-verifiable audit trail of all access to the data stored resulting in reduced storage costs while enabling near 100% data durability.”

OTTAWA, January 31, 2019 — Leonovus Inc., (“Leonovus or the Company”) (TSXV:
LTV) (OTC: LVNSF) and Systematika Distribution, a division of Comparex Italia Srl. (“Systematika”), have signed a distribution agreement to support the Company’s global
expansion strategy. Customer engagements begin with a joint roadshow in Rome and Milan the first week of March 2019.

For over thirty years Systematika, based in Italy, has focused on “high technological value” software distribution to its customers while also providing training services, presales support, laboratories, marketing initiatives, incentives, and consultancy to support their partners. Systematika Distribution is part of the COMPAREX Group, a European leader in the IT sales and services market.

“Our end-users have rapidly growing petabyte-scale unstructured data, originating from a variety of sources. They are very concerned about data protection and security, with critical audit and compliance requirements like GDPR needing to be addressed. With Leonovus they will have the flexibility to store their data in a hybrid or multi-cloud architecture, with a cryptographically-verifiable audit trail of all access to the data stored resulting in reduced storage costs while enabling near 100% data durability,” said Franco Puricelli, Director – Sales Manager & Business Development Systematika Distribution

“European cloud and colocation markets are booming. According to Vertiv, 57% of enterprise companies plan to increase their use of cloud and off-site data storage.   Adding Systematika to our distribution network continues our rapid expansion of regional and more focused CSPs in Europe in support of our global expansion. Last week we completed our training with the Systematika team,” said Michael Gaffney, CEO, and Chairman, Leonovus.
