"Foresight continues to make important strides in both the defense and automotive industries, as demonstrated by our significant milestones recorded during the third quarter," commented Haim Siboni, chief executive officer of Foresight. "We believe that our global exclusive commercialization agreement with Elbit, one of the world's leading integrators for the defense industry, demonstrates the exceptional quality of our vision systems for defense applications. This software license agreement has the potential to significantly accelerate the commercialization of our solutions, both for semi and fully autonomous platforms, in the defense, paramilitary and homeland security markets.
"We continue to execute our strategy of developing joint projects with leading automotive and OEM manufacturers around the world. We announced multiple new POC projects with global Chinese manufacturers during the third quarter, expanding our presence in this significant market. The third quarter also saw a breakthrough achievement for Eye-Net Mobile, our fully owned subsidiary, as the Company announced a paid POC project with SoftBank, one of Japan's most important companies. In the fourth quarter of 2023, we expect to build on these successes and enhance our global expansion."
