LEVITTOWN, PA / ACCESSWIRE / July 24, 2020 / ProcureAM, a wholly owned subsidiary of Procure Holdings, LLC, won the "ETF Innovation of the Year" accolade for its Procure Space ETF (NASDAQ:UFO) at the 27th annual Fund Intelligence Mutual Fund Industry & ETF Awards. This award is given to the most successful ETF focused on a novel strategy or approach to the market, as deemed by an independent panel of 19 judges with expertise across the asset management space.

Launched on April 11, 2019, UFO is the world's first ETF to give investors pure-play exposure to the expanding global space industry. The fund tracks (before fees and expenses) the S-Network Space Index, which focuses on companies that are significantly engaged in space-related activities.

"We are honored to have earned this impressive industry accolade for UFO in just over a year of existence," said Andrew Chanin, co-founder and CEO of ProcureAM. "UFO offers a unique opportunity for investors to experience the cutting edge of this largely untapped industry. Just as space is limitless, so is the potential to harness its possibilities."

For over a quarter century, the Mutual Fund Industry & ETF Awards have recognized outstanding business leaders, the best creative minds and the top performers across U.S. asset management. Recipients of the "ETF Innovation of the Year" award are determined by a combination of several elements, such as flows, performance, fund objectives and innovation.

"Space has always captured human interest, but recently the space economy has begun to garner commercial interest like never before," said Robert "Bob" Tull, co-founder and president of ProcureAM. "We are humbled to be recognized by Fund Intelligence, and honored to lead the way as investors can now enjoy unprecedented access to this exciting and growing market segment."
