ACTIVATE SOLIDIFIES TITLE OF FASTEST GROWING ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY IN THE WORLD WITH MAJOR EXPANSION INTO SCANDINAVIA

Activate

Activate, the leading active gaming company combining physical activity with immersive, tech-driven experiences, is thrilled to announce its expansion into Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Finland. This significant development is part of Activate’s continued global growth strategy and is made possible through a strategic partnership with Realinvest, a prominent real estate and investment firm in Scandinavia. Since its founding in 2017, Activate has revolutionized the entertainment industry. With over 30 locations across North America, one in Dubai, 15 under construction around the world, and plans to open 200 more globally, the move into Scandinavia marks the next step in Activate's international expansion. “We’re absolutely thrilled to bring Activate to Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Finland”, states Adam Schmidt, CEO and founder of Activate. These countries are renowned for their love of active, outdoor lifestyles, and we believe Activate’s unique combination of physical challenges and immersive gaming will resonate perfectly with this new audience in Northern Europe. Our partnership with ReaIinvest is pivotal to this expansion, enabling us to introduce a fresh, dynamic experience to the Scandinavian market. We’re confident that Activate will provide families, friends, and adventure-seekers across the region with an unforgettable and engaging way to stay active while having fun.” Realinvest is no stranger to ambitious projects. With seven hotels already in operation, three more under development, and a portfolio of 38 properties that include office buildings, shopping malls, hotels, and commercial spaces, adding Activate is a natural fit as they continue to play a leading role in shaping the region's community landscape. “Our shopping center's slogan, 'Great Experiences,' is embodied by the 85 event days we host annually,” states Hans Hoff, President and Chairman, Realinvest. “As we looked to expand our portfolio with unique, experience-based attractions, we didn’t want options that tend to feel the same as trampoline parks, climbing, bouldering, and soft play centers. With Activate, we discovered something truly unique, thanks to a tip from one of our manager's sons who came across it on TikTok. We were immediately excited by the concept and realized it aligns perfectly with our vision of offering 'great experiences' for active families. Activate fits seamlessly into the future of our business and the growth of our community." Activate's expansion to Scandinavia will see the first location set to open in Norway in early 2025.

Birdfy Launches Feeder Pro 2, The Perfect Companion For Capturing The Beauty Of Blue Jay Bird

Rev Up Marketers

Birdfy, a company for innovative bird care products, is happy to present the Feeder Pro 2, a bird feeder for the attractive and well-loved blue jay. This latest release targets bird watchers and nature lovers who find value in the blue jay's beauty, wit, and deep spiritual significance. Featuring cutting-edge innovative technology, enhanced durability, and environmentally friendly materials, the Feeder Pro 2 ensures a top-tier bird-watching experience, especially for those with an affinity for bluejays. Blue jays, with their brilliant blue feathers and bold personalities, have long been symbols of clarity, intelligence, and communication in spiritual traditions. The blue jay spiritual meaning is deeply associated with confidence, adaptability, and resilience. For enthusiasts of this influential avian association, the Feeder Pro 2 opens a new chance to bond with these none-too-shy birds in their backyards. Key Features Of Birdfy Feeder Pro 2 Incorporating sustainability features and ease of use, this feeder is suitable for attracting a blue jay bird. Some of the key features include: Blue Jay-Specific Feeding Design In contrast to other feeders available in the market, the product has been designed and developed to meet the feeding requirements of blue jays. The feeder is refurbished to fit more enormous seed trays, which the blue jays go for, including sunflower seeds, peanuts, and corn. The feeder design also permits perching, which will enable blue jays to take food while in comfortable situations. Smart Bird-watching with Advanced Camera Technology The product incorporates the advanced AI-based camera system into Birdfy, enabling bird lovers to view the birds’ activities using a mobile application. The intelligent camera records high-definition photos and videos as soon as it identifies the presence of a bird, including the blue jay. Using its motion-sensing feature, birdwatchers can instantly be notified whenever a blue jay comes into the vicinity, making it a little more exciting. Eco-Friendly Materials for Sustainable Bird Care The company also promotes sustainability, and in this Feeder Pro 2, the material used is 100% recycled and biodegradable. This way of thinking promotes the environmentally responsible process of fostering blue jays or other birds for those who want to continue being ecologically friendly. The feeder has a reasonably robust construction that allows it to resist elements, enabling it to hold its place in the garden for a very long time. Enhanced Durability for Year-Round Use Being made of weather-resistant material, the product is protected against almost everything, including rain, sleet, and even the sun when it’s too hot. It is necessary to provide birds with food all year round, and few birds are as expected in this region as blue jays. This feature also makes the structure more rigid to other forms of invasion by squirrels and other pests so that blue jays can feed peacefully. Easy Setup and Maintenance Therefore, the Feeder Pro 2 was developed with ease of use among the key objectives. This design makes it possible to assemble and install it quickly, besides the detachable parts that make it effortless to maintain and refill. This means that users don’t have to refill the seed regularly; maybe they can just focus on watching the beautiful blue jay bird. Why Blue Jays Are Special: The Blue Jay Spiritual Meaning Blue jays have fascinated birders and have been a symbol for spiritualists for many hundreds of years. In different cultures, blue jays are always related to protection, freedom of speech, and courage. Their dual meaning is often tied to messages of protection, self-expression, and boldness. Blue jays' aggressive tone and constant vocalization are interpreted as a desire for people to find their voice and assert themselves. In some cultures, blue jays are seen as messengers of messages from the spirit world, asking people to follow their instincts and wield the power they possess. Therefore, the company fully understands the position that blue jays occupy in fauna symbolism and mysticism. The Feeder Pro 2 was created to be unique, paying homage to this bond and intending to be a steady and warm home for these glorious birds. Birdfy: Bridging Technology And Nature The company has been the pioneer as far as inventions in products for birds are concerned. The Feeder Pro 2 is also part of the company’s mission to use innovative ways to allow people to interact with nature in an environmentally friendly manner. By introducing clever bird-watching software into one’s everyday existence, the company assists users in strengthening their relationship with the birds in their neighborhood and focusing on the blue jay bird. The choice of the blue jay bird is exceptional – it is filled with symbolism and beloved by millions of people. Thus, with Feeder Pro 2, they are glad to allow people to enjoy these birds worthily and support this idea. Instead of merely providing bird feeders, the company has the idea of making the site a bird-watching station. In addition to improving backyard birding, this smart bird feeder is an educational device suitable for families and school-going children. By applying intelligent technologies and environmental initiatives to the design of products, everyone learns more and increases their interest in birds, their feeding time, and attempts to protect them. Another novelty, the feeder’s smart camera, will let users share beautiful bird photos and videos with other people on social networks, creating a big community of like-minded people! The feeder is strongly built, providing long-lasting solutions for both the birds and the bird watchers on the other side. Customers will appreciate that the company is associated with a company that cares for the lives of birds and the environment. About Birdfy Birdfy is a leading international manufacturer of natural bird products and accessories whose mission is to improve harmony between humans and birds. The company is aware of the importance of preserving the environment and using solutions that help people and birds. Therefore, it develops products to make bird watching enjoyable, fascinating, informative, and useful for people of any age.

AGC Biologics Appoints Alberto Santagostino as new Chief Executive Officer

AGC Biologics

AGC Biologics, a leading global Biopharmaceutical Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO), today announced the appointment of Alberto Santagostino to Chief Executive Officer and President of AGC Biologics, effective November 1 st. Alberto has had a distinguished career in biotech, pharma and managing large-scale global CDMO operations. His expertise and knowledge will lead AGC Biologics’ next chapter as the company reemphasizes delivering reliable services to biopharmaceutical developers without unnecessary complications. AGC Biologics will have a friendly business approach with customers and provide them with expert CDMO services to become an increasingly preferred service provider. AGC Biologics intends to be valued as collaborative, reliable and stable: it will be a safe harbor for those customers seeking to minimize geopolitical risks, intellectual property concerns, steep price expectations and transactional or confrontational supplier relationships. This direction builds on the company’s 30 years of biopharma CDMO experience, including serving more than 250 customers across over 400 different projects, with more than 90 successful regulatory inspections and 25 commercial products launched. Alberto joins AGC Biologics after most recently serving as the Head of Cell and Gene Technology (CGT) at Lonza for six years. While there, his business unit grew four-fold in size by enabling clients to advance four new CGT therapies to commercial production and many more to late-stage clinical milestones, with now thousands of patients being cured annually. During his tenure, Alberto led the industrialization of CGT therapeutics manufacturing: from a “science workshop” into “industrial scale compliant operations” with several positive Pre-Approval Inspections (PAI) from the U.S. FDA and EMA that led to three CGT biomanufacturing sites becoming licensed for commercial supply. Before Lonza, Alberto was a Partner in the Pharmaceutical & Medical Product practice at McKinsey & Co., serving more than 70 clients with over 200 projects. While there, Alberto developed a proprietary operational benchmark that analyzed the performance of more than 30 biomanufacturing sites and published books and articles about Biopharma operations. Alberto currently serves as a board member for the Alliance for Regenerative Medicine (ARM) and holds a degree in Industrial Biotechnology from the University of Milano-Bicocca and a Master of Business Administration from Politecnico di Milano. “I am excited to announce Alberto is joining us to lead AGC Biologics and to set the tone for the coming years. We share the common vision of service, delivery and quality that is at the core of AGC Group’s business philosophy,” said Murano Tadashi, President of AGC Life Science Company. “I am confident Alberto will bring both a wide knowledge of the biopharma industry and the experience of successfully leading growth at scale. He will enhance AGC Biologics’ reputation as an increasingly preferable CDMO in the industry.” “I am grateful for the opportunity to serve AGC Biologics and its team members and customers. We will have customers at the heart of our action and our technical talent as the enabler of our CDMO’s aspiration of friendly & expert services to the biopharma industry,” said Alberto Santagostino, new Chief Executive Officer at AGC Biologics. “Over the last several years our industry has faced more complexity. Chemistry Manufacturing Control (CMC), technical development and manufacturing have been a headache for the biopharma industry, also, and sometimes especially, when dealing with CDMOs. AGC Biologics aspires to become an easy choice. We will be a friendly CDMO to work with, expert and reliable in our technical role. We will leverage our technical talent, established centers of excellence, commercial track record, growing capacity at our global sites and the solidity of the parent company, to offer reliability while staying uncomplicated to work with. Ultimately, ‘#YourfriendlyCDMOexpert.’ ” For more information on AGC Biologics’ end-to-end global CDMO services in the U.S., Europe and Japan visit www.agcbio.com.

Sector Spotlight: Four Emerging Players Shaping the AI Landscape

IVDA VERI REKR SOUN

In today’s fast-paced economy, artificial intelligence has emerged as a crucial driver for business success across various sectors. According to Grand View Research, the global AI market was valued at approximately $196.63 billion in 2023, with projections indicating a remarkable compound annual growth rate of 36.6% through 2030, potentially reaching an astounding $1.81 trillion. While industry giants like NVIDIA, Microsoft, Meta, and Alphabet are spearheading the AI revolution, the rapidly expanding market presents significant opportunities for emerging companies. With innovations reshaping the landscape, it’s an exciting time for investors to explore new avenues. Now, let’s take a closer look at four emerging players in the AI sector that show great promise for growth. Iveda Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: IVDA) has emerged as a leader in cloud-based AI, with solutions spanning security, energy management, smart city planning, and more. Its core technology empowers cities, educational institutions, and businesses to enhance safety and operational efficiency, marking the company's alignment with the global shift toward AI-driven infrastructure in the fifth industrial revolution. In retail, IvedaAI Cloud has seen notable uptake across the U.S., Korea, Japan, and beyond. By converting existing security systems into AI-powered, theft-deterrent tools, IvedaAI addresses industry-wide challenges such as retail shrink, saving potential losses up to $112.1 billion. The platform’s real-time analytics for theft detection and the world’s fastest video search enhance both security and convenience for retailers without requiring significant hardware investment. Educational institutions are another growth area, with U.S. schools and universities increasingly integrating Iveda’s AI solutions to bolster campus safety. IvedaAI’s real-time alerts for weapon and crowd detection have made it an invaluable tool in a sector projected to reach a $6 billion market by 2025. Schools have especially benefited from Iveda’s compatibility with existing infrastructure, which simplifies adoption and reduces upfront costs. Iveda’s partnerships also extend to manufacturing and data center security, reflecting the adaptability of its technology across sectors. The recent proof-of-concept project for a leading computer manufacturer in Asia utilizes Iveda’s vumastAR AI models to automate assembly line inspections, enhancing both speed and accuracy. Similarly, ColoBarn’s adoption of IvedaAI for data center security underscores Iveda’s role in bolstering data protection in a colocation market set to grow significantly by 2030. Beyond security, IVDA has made strides in energy management with IvedaEMS, supporting companies like Data Management in optimizing energy consumption and aligning with ESG standards. This expansion positions Iveda as a trusted partner in sustainability, tapping into an energy management market projected to hit $84.34 billion by 2029. With cutting-edge solutions tailored to diverse industries, Iveda is well-positioned for continued growth. As global demand for AI and IoT solutions expands, Iveda’s strategic innovation in cloud-based, scalable technology supports its status as a frontrunner in the AI-driven transformation of modern infrastructure. Veritone, Inc. (NASDAQ: VERI), a U.S.-based AI technology provider, develops AI-powered solutions for industries like media, public safety, and talent acquisition. Its proprietary platform, aiWARE, combines machine learning with human insight to help organizations streamline data management and speed up decision-making, transforming data into actionable intelligence. In Q2 2024, Veritone reported a 10.7% year-over-year revenue increase to $31 million, driven by software products like Veritone Hire. The company’s gross margin improved to 78.8%, and its ARR reached $67.9 million. Despite a non-GAAP net loss of $6.9 million, Veritone’s financials are strengthening, supported by a divestiture of its media agency, Veritone One, aimed at focusing on core AI solutions and reducing debt. Veritone’s advancements in digital evidence management, particularly through its Intelligent Digital Evidence Management System (iDEMS) and Veritone Track, highlight its expanding public safety portfolio. These tools integrate with systems like Axon’s Evidence.com, enhancing data handling and speeding investigations. Additionally, a partnership with Talent Tech Labs aligns Veritone Hire with emerging trends in recruitment, emphasizing social media-driven job advertising. However, Veritone faces hurdles, including slowing revenue from consumption-based clients like Amazon and high debt levels. Despite these challenges, Veritone projects 2024 revenue between $136 million and $142 million, positioning itself as a focused player in AI enterprise solutions across industries. Rekor Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: REKR) is at the forefront of AI-powered roadway intelligence, transforming traditional traffic management with innovative digital solutions. Using its proprietary Rekor One platform, Rekor aggregates vast mobility data to provide government agencies and businesses with real-time, actionable insights. The company’s tools enable smarter, safer, and more efficient roads through advanced computer vision and machine learning. In Q2 2024, Rekor reported a 45% revenue increase to $12.4 million, up from $8.6 million the previous year. Year-to-date, revenue grew by 51%, reaching $22.2 million. To fuel ongoing growth, Rekor secured a financing facility of up to $35 million, with $15 million already drawn. This financial boost strengthens its position, alongside improved adjusted EBITDA, which narrowed losses from $7.2 million to $5.8 million year-over-year. Rekor has secured significant contracts, including a $1.5 million project with the Maryland Department of Transportation to support traffic insights on major highways. Multi-year contracts with transportation departments in Texas, Ohio, and Colorado, worth up to $15 million, highlight the company’s expanding influence across states. Recently, Rekor appointed industry veteran Rish Malhotra as EVP of Global Growth to lead expansion across North America and globally. Malhotra’s experience in Intelligent Transportation Solutions (ITS) aligns with Rekor’s mission to modernize roadway infrastructure. With its advanced AI and big-data approach, Rekor is leading the shift away from outdated traffic monitoring systems. Positioned for growth, the company’s innovations are setting a new standard in roadway intelligence and digital infrastructure. SoundHound AI (Nasdaq: SOUN) is advancing conversational intelligence with voice AI solutions designed to improve customer interaction across sectors like automotive, consumer electronics, and customer service. Known for its proprietary tech, SoundHound’s AI powers millions of interactions yearly, providing responsive, multi-language voice experiences for leading companies. A notable shift occurred with SoundHound’s recent acquisition of Amelia, a recognized enterprise AI firm servicing industries like finance, retail, and healthcare. This acquisition has broadened SoundHound's capabilities, adding enterprise AI expertise and increasing reach into new markets. The integration aims to enhance customer support for nearly 200 major brands, including some of the world's largest banks and Fortune 500 firms. The combined company leverages SoundHound’s voice commerce tech, enabling seamless voice-activated ordering and transactions in spaces like food service and retail. Financially, SoundHound reported record Q2 2024 revenue of $13.5 million, marking a 54% year-over-year increase. With $201 million in cash reserves and new revenue streams from Amelia, SoundHound projects over $150 million in 2025 revenue. The acquisition also aligns with an estimated $250 billion market for generative AI by 2027, with customer service predicted as a high-impact area for AI. SoundHound’s expanded portfolio now reaches automotive sectors, with recent rollouts for brands like Stellantis, and features generative AI-powered in-car assistants. According to a 2024 survey, nearly 80% of U.S. drivers favor vehicles with advanced AI features, showing strong market demand for integrated voice technologies. Disclaimers: RazorPitch Inc.

FTN Network Premiers NBA Proprietary Data for Customers for 2024 Season

FTN Network

FTN Network, a company built for delivering affordable, customizable and highly detailed sports data for media companies, bettors, fantasy sports and DFS, announced today that it will premier NBA data on its platform of charted, proprietary information. Starting with the 2024–25 season, NBA data will be available to all FTN Data customers, and to FTN Fantasy subscribers at a later date. FTN will track 19 distinct data points aimed at offering unique context into player evaluations, covering everything from fundamental offensive and defensive sets to intricate and advanced analytics. The collected data will place an emphasis on the impact of the defensive side of the ball. With the last 4 league-MVP awards going to true Centers (Nikola Jokic and Joel Embiid), FTN will equip data subscribers with the resources necessary to highlight the extensive impact some of the league’s most dominant players have on neutralizing opposing offensive superstars. The advanced metrics will provide insights into ball screen coverages, post-defense, off-ball defensive actions, contested shot data and contested rebound data, going deeper than simply tracking who secures a rebound and where. "We want to revolutionize the way individuals analyze and engage with the sport of basketball. This includes enhancing the experience from both a betting and fantasy perspective, as well as for regular viewers of the game down the line. Our objective with the charting database is to drive innovation for sports analytics,” said Frank Brank, Chief Data Officer at FTN. “We want to offer services and insights that may go unnoticed by other platforms. Users will have intel like a defensive scout, including how teams defend against specific offensive formations, as well as offensive efficiency metrics that highlight the effectiveness of these defensive strategies.” Building on its extensive NFL data and unique expertise with its DVOA/DYAR metrics, FTN’s addition of NBA analytics will help enhance customers’ viewership experience and boost the entertainment value of the sport. The following data points will be collected by FTN for its charting database: possession type, play type, shot type, defensive alignment, after time-out situations, short clock situations, ball screen defensive coverages, screen locations, screen participants, off-ball action coverages, post defense, post play participants, deflections, potential assists, shot contest types, shot contest hands, contests by player, rebound locations, and rebound contests. “The launch of our NBA data for the upcoming season further establishes FTN as the one stop shop for all things fantasy, betting and fan engagement,” said Perry Gershon, chief executive officer at FTN. “It allows users to go beyond the box score in this new era of the game, making it a truly innovate tool in the sports data industry.” This additional data offering comes at a time when FTN is experiencing impressive growth. Total subscription revenue (monthly and annual combined) grew 16 percent for the first three quarters of 2024 compared to the same period last year. The main driver of that growth is its fantasy football product on ftnfantasy.com, which historically sells best between July and September. For that specific 3-month period, FTN’s subscription revenue grew 22 percent compared to 2023. FTN Data revenue also grew substantially (by 211% over the same period last year), driven by an increased visibility of the product. About FTN Network FTN Network is a sports data B2B and fantasy sports and betting media B2C company. Founded in 2020, FTN gives the fantasy and sports betting community an edge through its own unique ecosystem, providing customizable tools that turn raw data into true insights while also offering expert analysis and content to help users make the best decision possible.
