/CNW/ - ECC Ventures 5 Corp. (the "Company" or
"ECC5") (TSXV: ECCV.P) is pleased to provide an update on
the status of its proposed qualifying transaction, previously
announced May 16, 2022, pursuant to
which it will acquire (the "Acquisition") all the issued and

The Company continues to work with Shelfie on completing the
financing that is being conducted in connection with the

SEDAR website, which will contain fulsome disclosure in accordance
with applicable securities law and the policies of the Exchange
regarding the Acquisition, ECC5, Shelfie and the issuer resulting

Shelfie is a private Israeli company focussed on the development
and commercialization of an artificial intelligence powered real
time shelf inventory analytics robotic platform. Shelfie's
innovative solution consists of a digital image capturing system
and a centralized management system that provides real-time
visibility into the retail shelf supply, pinpointing the exact
products running low on inventory, allowing for rapid remediation
and an enhanced customer experience.

A copy of the definitive agreement among ECC5 and Shelfie is
accessible under ECC5's profile on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).
Completion of the Acquisition is subject to a number of

Financing. Trading of ECC5's common shares will remain halted
