ARHT Media Impresses Again: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Roberta Bondar And Larry King Appear As Holograms At Sold Out Fundraiser

(Toronto, Ontario – June 5th, 2017) ARHT Media Inc. (“ARHT” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: ART), the creators behind digital human holograms once again captivated audiences when it partnered with The Peter Munk Cardiac Centre (“PMCC”) to deliver 3D Holograms of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Roberta Bondar and Larry King to its fundraising event held on June 1st, 2017.

PMCC, the premier cardiac centre in Canada, hosted the event in tribute and in celebration of Dr. Heather Ross who is globally recognized as one of the world’s greatest cardiologists.

“This event was created to pay tribute to a transformational figure in healthcare and to recognize all the contributions of Dr. Ross to cardiac care,” said Tennys Hanson, President and CEO of Toronto General & Western Hospital Foundation. “We knew that her achievements would draw the interest of key dignitaries. We also knew their schedules would not allow them to physically attend, so we worked with ARHT to bring these messages to life in a unique and extraordinary way.”

The mission for ARHT was to deliver not only Prime Minister Trudeau to the event but also Roberta Bondar, Canada’s first female astronaut, and award winning television host Larry King.

ARHT did not disappoint.

After months of coordination with each of the respective public relations and media teams, ARHT implemented its patented HumaGram™ technology and on June 1st Prime Minister Trudeau, Roberta Bondar and Larry King all appeared as 3D holograms to a mesmerized crowd.

Each dignitary stood on stage in front of more than 500 people and offered their support, praise and gratitude for Dr. Ross’ lifetime contribution to heart health…all without actually being in the room.

Within the healthcare sector, ARHT sees significant potential as it relates to education and telemedicine which can create great opportunities for emerging health care practitioners.

“This event was a milestone for ARHT because it enabled us to merge our cutting-edge technology with the healthcare sector, which is an alignment that we feel very strongly about at ARHT, said Paul Duffy, CEO of ARHT. “Creating a great technology is only half the puzzle, the key is to create a great technology that can have a positive change on our lives and we view health care as the perfect space to do just that”
