VANCOUVER, Aug. 2, 2016 /PRNewswire/ - NanoStruck Technologies Inc. (the "Company" or "NanoStruck") (CSE: NSK) (OTCPink: NSKQB) (Frankfurt: 8NSK) announces that, further to its news release of March 31, 2016, it has received majority shareholder approval for the change of the business to become a platform for the emerging area of alternative finance known as crowdfunding and discontinue its water remediation and tailings processing business.  The Company's management deems the change of business to be necessary to deliver improved shareholder returns and long-term shareholder value.

The Company has also received board approval to change the name of the Company to "Fineqia International Inc." to better reflect the direction of the Company's business effective August 2, 2016.  At this time, the Company's common shares will remain halted until the Company completes its private placement, debt settlement and change of business.  Upon final Exchange approval of the change of business, the Company's common shares will resume trading under the new name and new trading symbol, FNQ.  The new CUSIP number for the Company's common shares is 31788W102 and ISIN number is CA31788W1023.

The Company is working towards completing the final tranche of the previously announced private placement of up to 500,000,000 units at a price of $0.01 per unit for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $5,000,000.  The Company completed the first tranche of the private placement and issued 157,900,000 units, raising gross proceeds of $1,579,000 on August 11, 2015.  Each unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant exercisable at $0.05 per share for a period of five years.

Concurrently with closing of the private placement, the Company will be completing debt conversions by the issuance of up to 150,000,000 common shares of the Company to various creditors for past consulting services provided to the Company at deemed prices of $0.01 per share (for non-insiders) and $0.05 per share (for insiders).

The Company anticipates closing the above transactions immediately following completion of the name change to Fineqia International Inc.
