The team also includes high profile writer and director Ben Younger and Oscar-winner Martin Scorsese; how significant to your career is it to have this kind of caliber talent on the film?
A: Chad A. Verdi
This is a dream team and is the most exciting project my film production company has been associated with. From the story line of a local come-back boxing legend to the newly signed actors and to have a legend like Martin Scorsese on board is a producer’s dream. A talented writer like Ben Younger will make this film become the heart-felt story of courage and tenacity it is meant to be. I believe this will be one of the greatest boxing films ever made with this team.
Q- Investorideas.com
The movie goes into pre – production in July 2014; what does that entail?
A: Chad A. Verdi
This is where the foundation of the movie is set, locations are found and the key people too make the film are put into place
Q- Investorideas.com
This is a year of big projects coming to life for you. Your investment in NXT-ID, Inc. and its next generation smart wallet, the Wocket, is set to launch this year. What is it like to see it unfold?
A: Chad A. Verdi
A: Chad A. Verdi
I have read a few analysts say that 2014 is the year to watch biometrics technology. We all saw the market and industry reaction last year to Apple incorporating fingerprint recognition technology in its smart phone. It set the stage for an exciting race. NXT-ID, Inc. saw some competition come to market in November with the media launch of a competitor, the COIN. Both products are aiming to replace all the credit cards in your wallet, but I believe that the Wocket is superior with its biometric voice recognition technology and it can also store up to 100 cards, VS. the 8 cards the COIN enables. I think this is a very exciting time in the space and I am thrilled to be behind a game-changing technology. I believe this is my best investment to date. This is bigger than Bleed for This I feel.
Q- Investorideas.com
I see thatNXT-ID attracted an A- team list of talent to launch their product as well with some recent additions?
A: Chad A. Verdi
Yes they recently announced two Former MasterCard executives to Its newly formed Advisory Board. I think if you are going to be a key player in the payment space, you need the right team. I fell just like my film; they are putting together a winning team.
Q- Investorideas.com
We would love to do a follow up with you again once the movie goes into pre-production and the Wocket is launched.
A: Chad A. Verdi
Yes, for sure, both roll-outs will be career hi-lights for me.
