A2Z Smart Technologies, Inc. (TSXV: AZ) (OTCQB: AAZZF) (FSE: A23) ('A2Z' or the 'Company'), an innovative technology company specializing in state-of-the-art automation and electronics technology, is pleased to announce that its management team met with a senior government official, Mr. Yitzchak Pindros, in Jerusalem, Israel.

Mr. Pindros is a member of the Israeli parliament. The meeting was part of A2Z's efforts for its FTICS technology to become mandatory in every new motor vehicle sold in Israel.

FTICS is a unique cutting-edge lifesaving technology that is located within the fuel tank of a car. Upon collision, FTICS releases a proprietary substance into the gas tank, solidifying the fuel and eliminating the possibility of combustion and thereby preventing fires. The fuel tank is also lined with a special coating to ensure the fuel does not leak. This eliminates vehicle fires, saving lives and preventing serious harm to passengers, as well as saving billions in property damage

After the meeting, Mr. Pindros went on record, stating that 'Following the successful completion of the company's pilot program, we will promote a bill mandating the installation of A2Z's FTICS technology in every new car sold in Israel. The protection, safety and saving of human lives is our priority.' Also present at the meeting was Mr. Israel Morgenstern, Chairman of ZAKA, a leading Israeli search and rescue organization, which is also responsible in recovering the bodies from accidents. Mr. Morgenstern, stated, 'Our courageous employees work day and night and encounter the devastation and carnage from fatal car accidents in Israel. ZAKA will fully support the initiative to pass legislation that will make this FTICS technology mandatory for every new car sold nationwide as this will save countless lives.'
