(OTCQB: ILAL) (“International Land Alliance,” “ILA,” “ILAL” or the “Company”), an international land investment and development firm, today announced that it has retained Luna Consultant Group (“LCG”), a corporate strategy, communications and business development consulting firm, to support the Company’s corporate development and public-company growth initiatives as ILAL continues its efforts in working toward uplisting to the Nasdaq Capital Market. The engagement will be led by Vanessa Luna, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of LCG, who brings more than 20 years of executive and management experience, including more than 15 years working with public companies and the U.S. capital markets. In her role leading LCG’s engagement with International Land Alliance, Luna will work closely with the Company’s executive leadership on corporate development, strategic growth initiatives, capital markets positioning, business development, organizational strategy, strategic partnerships and other public-company initiatives designed to support ILAL’s next stage of growth. Luna is a seasoned public-company executive whose career includes C-suite and senior leadership roles with companies traded on both the OTC Markets and Nasdaq. Her experience spans corporate development, operations, business development, capital markets, mergers and acquisitions, organizational transformation and investor and public communications. Her broader career includes helping public and private organizations navigate periods of rapid growth, corporate transformation and capital formation. Through LCG, Luna has advised dozens of public and privately held companies on corporate strategy, business development, communications, capital markets positioning and value-creation initiatives. International Land Alliance previously announced that the Company’s 2026 reverse stock split was implemented as part of its strategy to pursue an uplisting to Nasdaq. The addition of LCG and Luna expands the resources available to management as the Company continues advancing its corporate objectives and preparing for the requirements and opportunities associated with operating on a senior national securities exchange. Frank Ingrande, Chief Executive Officer of International Land Alliance, commented: “Vanessa brings a combination of public-market experience, corporate development expertise and execution that we believe will be extremely valuable to International Land Alliance at this stage of our growth. She understands the demands placed on emerging public companies because she has worked directly inside organizations navigating many of the same milestones we are pursuing today.” Ingrande continued, “As we continue working toward Nasdaq uplisting and executing our broader growth strategy, we believe it is important to surround the Company with experienced professionals who understand how to build the corporate infrastructure, relationships and market presence necessary to support the next level of the organization. Vanessa has successfully participated in this process before, and we expect her and LCG to play an integral role in our public-company initiatives going forward.” Vanessa Luna, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of LCG commented: “I am extremely excited to partner with Frank and the International Land Alliance team at such an important point in the Company’s evolution. I have spent much of my career working with emerging public companies during transformative periods helping organizations build infrastructure, develop strategic relationships, access capital, execute transactions and ultimately position themselves for the next stage of the public markets.” Luna continued, “I see tremendous opportunity in International Land Alliance, both in the strength of its underlying business and the Company’s long-term vision. ILAL has established a meaningful portfolio of real estate development assets and has publicly communicated its intention to pursue a Nasdaq uplisting. Having previously participated in the journey of taking companies from the OTC Markets to Nasdaq, I understand both the opportunities and the level of execution required to successfully navigate that transition. I look forward to working alongside management and utilizing LCG’s resources and network to help advance the Company’s corporate development strategy, expand its market presence and build long-term value for its shareholders.” About International Land Alliance, Inc.
