Highlights:
 User adoption increased 215% QoQ in the September quarter, surpassing critical milestone of 20,000 users and demonstrating continued SME demand for 9 Spokes’ business insights dashboard.
 Rapid pace of adoption in the past quarter resulted from successful and more efficient marketing campaigns (with similar costs as previous quarter) by 9 Spokes Direct and Barclays.
 9 Spokes’ product development work completed during the quarter enabled Suncorp to proactively promote the Suncorp dashboard from early October.
 Business development activity continued to materialise and formalise during the quarter including:
o The signing of a contract with Royal Bank of Canada.
o Rapid deployment of the Royal Bank of Canada dashboard means the ambitious target implementation date is on track, within the December quarter.
o Letter of intent with a leading New Zealand bank.
o Memorandum of Understanding signed with OCBC (the second largest Singaporean bank), following a successful Proof of Concept (POC).
