This allows anyone, anywhere, to customize their hearing needs to improve speech understanding in any situation, even in the presence of background noise. INND, with its preferred vendor arrangement plans on manufacturing its own private label hearable/wearable products through leveraging Samplified's manufactures relationships. This will not only give INND the right to manufacture and distribute to audiology practices and or direct to consumers under the product name 'SnowOwl,' but also gives us the right to develop our own private label 'SnowOwl,' product as well as other hearing amplification devices that uses the cloud-based Clementine Wear audio software platform.
