Added news announcements relating to company history
[edit]Hi, i've provided full disclosure of being a marketing representative of NCS Group, which this page is about. Added some news announcements that are hopefully objective statements to reflect the company's recent movements in the industry. Appreciate if the moderators can provide a point of view on the statements included, as i've tried to refrain from promotional messaging in the announcements.
