In preparation for the Company\u2019s multi-product offering, Nuheara has repositioned its corporate branding to better reflect the company\u2019s global leadership position in the research, development, manufacture and sales of intelligent hearing devices.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nuheara.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/2018-logo-nuheara.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"170\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Figure 1: Nuheara\u2019s newly developed corporate brand \u2013 Hearing Intelligence<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The global hearing device market is undergoing rapid change, which is stimulating the need for new products. This is highlighted by the new innovative technologies that companies such as Nuheara are incorporating into headphone devices but also the significant changes to hearing health regulations; where there is a sizeable shift away from intense regulation (OTC Hearing Aid Act, USA) in order to provide more cost-effective solutions for those requiring hearing assistance. Juniper Research now forecasts 550% growth of the hearables market between now and 2020 with \u201cassistive audio\u201d representing 68% of this market, driven by the OTC legislation in the US and the corresponding expansion of retail channels for Hearing Solutions.<\/p>\n<p>Accordingly, the Company\u2019s two new products target opposite ends of the intelligent hearing market, with a lower priced lifestyle product and also a new hi-tech more personalised and customisable product featuring Artificial Intelligence (AI) functionality via neural networks. In development for over 12 months, the new products are a direct result of the Nuheara\u2019s foresight and ongoing commitment to Research and Development in hearing intelligence. More importantly these new products, together with IQbuds\u2122, provide a suite of intelligent hearing solutions that underpin and directly target the changing hearing market landscape.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nuheara.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/venn-diagram-nuheara.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"100%\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Figure 2: Nuheara\u2019s new product positioning for 2018 in a changing hearing market<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Commenting on the new product developments Nuheara CEO, Justin Miller, said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Our IQbuds<sup>TM<\/sup> have unlocked retail stores globally for Nuheara, specifically within the Consumer Electronics (CE) and Hearing Solutions (HS) retail channels. The development of a new lower priced, lifestyle orientated, intelligent hearable, demonstrates Nuheara\u2019s aspiration to offer a diverse range of intelligent hearing solutions to a much broader market base.<\/p>\n<p>This provides the Company with the potential for more unit sales and revenue, without the expense of developing new channels or indeed impacting IQbuds\u2122 sales. Equally a more personalised and customisable intelligent hearable for the HS channel, will provide a complimentary product to IQbuds<sup>TM<\/sup> but with far greater feature sets including Artificial Intelligence (AI) functionality.<\/p>\n<p>We have worked very hard to build a global base of diversified retail outlets. These outlets will be well positioned to fully maximise sales opportunities by displaying multiple Nuheara intelligent hearable products, across multiple price points, to customers of varying needs and demographics.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Contacts<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Australia<\/strong><br \/>\nJustin Miller<br \/>\nCEO and Managing Director<br \/>\n+61 8 6555 9999<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:justin.miller@nuheara.com\">justin.miller@nuheara.com<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>About Nuheara<\/strong><br \/>\nNuheara is an innovative audio wearables company that has developed proprietary and multi- functional intelligent hearing technology that augments a person\u2019s hearing and facilitates cable free connection to smart devices.
