Sydney, Australia: 24th May 2016: Uscom (ASX code: UCM) (the Company or Uscom ), a revenue stage, cardiovascular and pulmonary health technology company, today announced the appointment of Mr Brett Crowley as Company Secretary.

Increasingly we are in discussion with large multinationals and Brett’s experience will be vital to ensure that we maximize value from negotiations to distribute, sell and license our practice leading technologies.
