Crown Energy has entered into an Agreement with Proger and the original founders of AccYouRate to strengthen the financial position of the group. The agreement includes several different steps with the involved parties. According to the new agreement there will also be a new management in AccYouRate, with Marco Lombardi as new CEO of the group, who is also CEO of Proger. This new agreement puts in place incentives for Proger and the original founders to continue the successful journey that has now started, with three signed pilot projects with a value of approximately 420,000 EUR.

Crown Energy is currently the 85% owner of the shares in SmarTee, the parent company of AccYouRate, while Claudio Fabbri holds the remaining 15%. The new agreement involves a series of transactions that are designed to strengthen the partnership between Crown Energy and Proger, as well as with the original founders of the company, that continue to provide valuable experience and knowhow. This includes strengthening the future financing of AccYouRate and simplifying existing debt and laying the groundwork for the expected material growth of AccYouRate.

“The new management of AccYouRate has signed several promising pilot projects to be followed by what we hope are several material deals. To have them alongside with Crown Energy with the same incentives feels very good. By signing this agreement, we have also jointly taken the responsibility in strengthening AccYouRate financial position, which is fundamental for the future. I feel extremely satisfied with Proger’s commitment and with having Marco Lombardi at the helm.” Says Yoav Ben Eli, CEO of Crown Energy.

”Myself and Proger have been involved in the development of AccYouRate since 2019, contributing with financing and now managerial services. We have tested both the products and the database and have become more and more convinced of the advantages and potential value of these wearables and the AI data gathering services, says Marco Lombardi, CEO of Proger and AccYouRate.
