Latest Mouser Series Navigates the Balance of AI and Human Expertise in Engineering

 (BUSINESS WIRE)--Mouser Electronics, Inc., the authorized global distributor with the newest electronic components and industrial automation products, today released its latest installment of the Empowering Innovation Together (EIT) technology series, AI-powered engineering. This installment explores the balancing act of utilizing the capabilities of Artificial Intelligence (AI) with human expertise. AI-powered tools are now enabling engineers to streamline complex design processes with unprecedented precision.

By offloading time-consuming analysis and surfacing design insights faster, AI allows engineers to focus on what they do best: solving high-level challenges, pushing technical boundaries, and crafting sophisticated solutions. As generative intelligence and predictive modeling become more advanced, the synergy between human insight and machine intelligence is redefining how engineering problems are approached and how quickly innovations can reach the market. With proper utilization, engineers can push boundaries, innovate more freely, and ultimately deliver more robust and sophisticated solutions. This human-centric approach to AI integration ensures that technology becomes a trusted collaborator. Engineers remain at the heart of every breakthrough, equipped with the tools to move faster, think bigger, and innovate with greater confidence than ever before.

In The Tech Between Us podcast, host Raymond Yin, Mouser Director of Technical Content, is joined by Nemanja Jokanovic, Head of Sales at SnapMagic, to examine the evolution of engineering tools with recent AI integration and how it has impacted the future of design. The In Between The Tech podcast features Nirman Dave, CEO at Zams, as he discusses key factors in determining the quality of AI platforms, the benefits of low-code/no-code programs, and how AI-based tools can be used to enhance designs.

"AI is revolutionizing the engineering workflow, enabling us to achieve unprecedented levels of accuracy and efficiency," said Yin. "The future lies in creating harmony between human ingenuity and the capabilities provided by AI-powered tools. This installment examines how engineers can master that collaboration to pioneer innovations the world has yet to imagine."

In addition to the podcast, the EIT series includes an in-depth video, technical articles, and topic-related infographics, as well as subscriber-exclusive content, diving into how engineers can build a symbiotic relationship between their knowledge and intelligently powered tools. By exploring this relationship with AI, the series provides engineering professionals with the knowledge to develop a new wave of innovative solutions.

From Renting to Owning: More UAE Drivers Choose Flexibility Over Financing in New Ownership Trend

 Dollar UAE’s new Rent-to-Own service redefines convenience for UAE drivers with zero down payment, free insurance and servicing, and the freedom to own or return the car.

 

As rising costs and rigid financing models continue to make traditional car ownership challenging in the UAE, a new rent-to-own solution is paving the way for a simpler, more affordable alternative. Dollar Car Rental UAE has launched its Rent-to-Own (RTO) program, offering residents a flexible, bank-free path to car ownership that eliminates the need for down payments, lengthy loan approvals, and long-term financial commitments.

 

Built for cost-conscious, convenience-driven individuals, the Rent-to-Own model offers a flexible and transparent alternative to traditional car ownership. With a single point of contact for everything,  from servicing and accident management to value-added benefits and support, Dollar delivers a seamless, bundled solution that maximises customer convenience. This all-in-one approach removes the stress and complexity of traditional vehicle ownership, offering a smooth and worry-free driving experience from day one. It puts control back in the hands of consumers, eliminating the usual barriers like down payments, credit checks, and long-term financial commitments. Residents will have the flexibility to rent a car for a duration that fits their lifestyle, with the option to return it or purchase it at a pre-agreed value once the term ends.

 

This model is especially suited to:

Young and new families settling in the UAE, seeking hassle-free car solutions

Expats, digital nomads, and freelancers without access to traditional financing

SMEs and entrepreneurs who need reliable transportation without long-term commitments

Young professionals, Gen Z, and Millennials looking for flexible & affordable mobility

“There’s a growing segment of UAE residents who want a car but don’t want the complications of credit checks, deposits, or fluctuating monthly payments tied to loans,” said Marwan Almulla, General Manager at Dollar Car Rental UAE & Oman. “Our Rent-to-Own program was created with them in mind, offering full transparency, minimal paperwork, and real flexibility. Our goal is to give people the freedom to drive without locking them into complicated financial arrangements. By eliminating common roadblocks like credit history checks and upfront deposits, we’re making safe, reliable transportation accessible to more people, giving them peace of mind every step of the way.”

What makes the Rent-to-Own solution different?

Unlike traditional financing options, this all-inclusive model can help customers save approximately 5–8% annually, depending on the vehicle type. The Rent-to-Own plan includes:

 

Zero down payment

Insurance, servicing, and maintenance at no extra cost

30,000km annual mileage with seamless Salik tracking

An optional replacement vehicle during servicing

Simple documentation with no credit checks or banking paperwork

Option to buy the vehicle at a residual value or return it at the end of the rental

“This is freedom of movement without financial friction,” added Marwan. "The Rent-to-Own program supports personal mobility without the burden of bank debt, giving people the freedom to choose how they get around and what they drive, on their terms and without compromise.”

With the UAE’s leasing market projected to grow steadily, driven by demand for low-risk, flexible ownership options, Rent-to-Own solutions are becoming a smart choice for today’s cost-conscious, convenience-first consumers. According to Statista, leasing is expected to generate $175 million in revenue this year, with user penetration rising to 6.3%.

A young professional moving to UAE, for example, can rent a car for two years with no upfront costs. At the end of their stay, they have the flexibility to return the car with no strings attached or buy it outright if they decide to stay.

 

While several companies have long served corporate clients through traditional leasing, this move signals a shift toward personal mobility solutions. Dollar Car Rental UAE & Oman, currently supporting major brands like Pepsi, Mai Dubai, and Aramex is now extending this ease and reliability to everyday drivers with its Rent-to-Own offering.

 

About Dollar Car Rental UAE

Dollar Car Rental, a globally recognized leader in the rental car industry, operates with a commitment to providing exceptional customer service and a high-quality fleet of vehicles. Whether for leisure or business travel, Dollar ensures a seamless experience for all customers with its convenient locations nationwide and worldwide.

 

Dollar Car Rental UAE is proud to collaborate with top-tier brands such as Pepsi, Mai Dubai, RTA, ZULAL, NFPC, Aramex, Carrefour, and more. As a trusted partner in total transportation solutions, Dollar helps these companies reduce fleet management costs, improve fleet compliance, and achieve tailored business goals through customized vehicle builds and flexible leasing options.

 

With one of the largest and most diverse fleets in the UAE, Dollar Car Rental is the ideal choice for businesses requiring reliable transportation of valuable or perishable goods, offering long-term leasing options up to 5+ years.

ExaGrid Announces Support of Rubrik

 MARLBOROUGH, Mass. -

ExaGrid reduces costs, improves archive data restore performance, and adds security and disaster recovery options for Rubrik users

(BUSINESS WIRE)--ExaGrid®, the industry’s only Tiered Backup Storage solution with Retention Time-Lock that includes a non-network-facing tier (creating a tiered air gap), delayed deletes and immutability for ransomware recovery, today announced its Tiered Backup Storage appliances can now be used as a target for Rubrik backup software, and with advanced data deduplication will lower the cost of storing backups using the Rubrik Archive Tier or Rubrik Archive Tier with Instant Archive enabled as compared to storing the data in the Cloud or to an on-premise traditional storage.

Rubrik has a feature-rich product with many capabilities. ExaGrid adds to the Rubrik value proposition by improving the storage economics of Rubrik environments by working with Rubrik compression and deduplication and can achieve an additional reduction of 3:1 to 10:1 in addition to Rubrik’s compression and encryption, further reducing storage by as much as 90%. The combined deduplication is between 6:1 and 20:1 depending on length of retention and data types.

Advantages of using ExaGrid Tiered Backup Storage with Rubrik:

Significant savings for onsite and offsite storage and associated costs

Use less WAN bandwidth to the disaster recovery (DR) site

Fast disaster recovery from an on-premise data center versus the Cloud

Faster restores from archive data at the primary site versus the Cloud

Non-network-facing Repository Tier (tiered air gap) with a delayed delete policy and immutable data objects ensure data is ready to restore after a ransomware attack — a second layer of protection behind Rubrik’s ransomware recovery solution

“We are pleased to announce support of Rubrik, and to offer Rubrik users a huge savings for the long-term retention of backup data. Rubrik customers tend to store a couple of weeks’ worth of retention locally to Rubrik and then store longer-term retention to the Cloud, which can be very expensive. The ExaGrid solution dramatically lowers those storage costs and allows for much quicker archive data restores for user productivity. We also bring another layer of ransomware recovery in addition to the ransomware recovery that Rubrik provides,” said Bill Andrews, President and CEO of ExaGrid. “We continue to innovate our Tiered Backup Storage to offer the most integrations with 25+ industry-leading backup applications. We are excited to work with our channel partners to offer better backup storage for their Rubrik customers who are shocked at the high costs of cloud storage or are looking for better on-premise storage solutions.”

About ExaGrid

ExaGrid provides Tiered Backup Storage with a unique disk-cache Landing Zone, long-term retention repository, scale-out architecture, and comprehensive security features. ExaGrid’s Landing Zone provides for the fastest backups, restores, and instant VM recoveries. The Repository Tier offers the lowest cost for long-term retention. ExaGrid’s scale-out architecture includes full appliances and ensures a fixed-length backup window as data grows, eliminating expensive forklift upgrades and planned product obsolescence. ExaGrid offers the only two-tiered backup storage approach with a non-network-facing tier (tiered air gap), delayed deletes, and immutable objects to recover from ransomware attacks.

ExaGrid has physical sales and pre-sales systems engineers in the following countries: Argentina, Australia, Benelux, Brazil, Canada, Chile, CIS, Colombia, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Israel, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Nordics, Poland, Portugal, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States, and other regions.

Visit us at exagrid.com or connect with us on LinkedIn. See what our customers have to say about their own ExaGrid experiences and learn why they now spend significantly less time on backup storage in our customer success stories. ExaGrid is proud of our +81 NPS score!

Al Hamra Launches AED 3 billion Residential Projects - Al Hamra Greens and Aila Homes

 A New Era of Nature-Inspired and Upscale Community Living in Ras Al Khaimah

 

Al Hamra, the leading lifestyle developer and real estate investment company in Ras Al Khaimah, has officially launched two landmark residential developments Al Hamra Greens and Aila Homes — with a combined investment value exceeding AED 3 billion. The launch event, held on 5th July at Madinat Jumeirah, Dubai, welcomed over 1,000 brokers and industry stakeholders.

Located in Al Hamra Village, both projects highlight the developer’s focus on design-led, high-quality living.

Al Hamra Greens is a wellness-centric community inspired by Scandinavian design and rooted in the philosophy of “Reconnect with Living.” Located opposite RAK Central, it offers breathtaking views of RAK’s urban hub, the Al Hamra Championship Golf Course, and Wynn Al Marjan Island. The project comprises 1,754 apartments in 1 to 3 bedroom layouts, all with private balconies for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Starting from AED 1.2 million, the development boasts an array of amenities including lush gardens, BBQ terraces, paddle tennis and basketball courts, jogging and cycling tracks, kids’ play zones, a pet park, a wellness spa, and a gym with panoramic views. Over 38% of the project sold out within 24 hours of launch.

Aila Homes, launched alongside, features 200 upscale 3- and 4-bedroom townhouses with modern architecture, spacious layouts, private gardens, and direct access to community facilities. With more than 50% sold before the official launch, Aila Homes reflects strong demand for ready-to-move family homes in the emirate.

Benoy Kurien, Group CEO of Al Hamra, said:

“These launches respond directly to growing customer demand for meaningful, nature-rooted lifestyles and community living. They mark a key milestone in Al Hamra’s growth journey and our commitment to delivering value-driven developments.

Residents of both communities will benefit from the wider Al Hamra ecosystem, including a championship golf course, a 220-berth marina, and luxury hospitality assets like Waldorf Astoria, The Ritz-Carlton, Sofitel, and Al Hamra Village Hotel & Residences.

Looking ahead, Al Hamra is expanding into ultra-luxury with Waldorf Astoria Residences, Ras Al Khaimah, The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Al Wadi Desert, and it’s first Dubai project, reinforcing its position as a key player in the UAE’s real estate sector.

OPEX® Corporation Introduces Cortex® Sort-to-Order™ Integrated Software Suite to Streamline Order Fulfillment

(BUSINESS WIRE) -- OPEX® Corporation, a global leader in Next Generation Automation providing innovative solutions for warehouse, document and mail automation, is announcing the launch of its Cortex® Sort-to-Order™ (S2O) software suite, designed to provide a higher level of functionality for the company’s sortation solutions. This powerful software suite unlocks the full order management capabilities of OPEX’s Sure Sort® and Sure Sort® X warehouse automation systems—optimizing bin assignments, reducing fulfillment time, improving order accuracy, providing real-time analytics, and enabling direct communication with existing warehouse and order management systems.

“We’re continuously looking to improve upon our portfolio of offerings, and Cortex S2O does just that,” said Alex Stevens, President, Warehouse Automation, OPEX. “This new software suite significantly elevates the operational experience for associates and is a turnkey integrated solution for our customers. It enables businesses to work smarter and faster, and better ensures that every order fulfilled is complete, accurate and on time.”

The OPEX Cortex S2O software suite manages workflows and order fulfillment through an intelligent, user-friendly interface, enabling seamless integration between OPEX Sure Sort or OPEX Sure Sort X with any warehouse management system (WMS) or order management system (OMS). The functions and benefits are numerous.

With Cortex S2O, each system operator has their own dedicated application, which can run on a wrist computer, enabling operators to easily scan, check out complete orders, and replenish sort destinations by checking in new containers to the sort location. The system intelligently manages bin assignments—strategically splitting and positioning orders to balance machine performance and enabling business logic to be applied to the sort location, while unlocking operator productivity. It includes an override function for manual bin assignments when needed and allows items that cannot be processed on the machine to still be sorted in the automated putwall by virtually moving the inventory.

The software suite guides operators through quality audits and exception scenarios, such as missing items. The system takes full control of visual pack-to-light (PTL), directing operators to locations that require attention. With its built-in inspection and proactive quality control audits, businesses can effectively prevent incomplete or incorrect orders, reduce return rates and the associated costs, and improve overall customer satisfaction.

“The comprehensive operational analytics provided by Cortex S2O help organizations gain clear insights into processing efficiency, order dwell times, and operator productivity,” said Monty McVaugh, Head of Product, OPEX. “Automated reports indicate how well the order and consolidation process is proceeding, providing visibility into time and effort involved. This enables data-driven decision-making that can continuously optimize operations and improve overall warehouse efficiency.”

Cortex S2O can simultaneously manage up to 12 sortation systems, and as many as 50 operators and 12 managers. It is multi-language capable, including English, Spanish, Korean and more, and supports multiple communication methods, including database-to-database and flat file transfers. Its scalable design accommodates increased order volume, bin configurations and user access as operations grow. And training is fast and easy, helping to overcome resistance to change and ensure smooth adoption across a multi-generational workforce.

Cortex S2O is a great fit for small, medium, and large organizations. It reduces the burden on customer’s IT resources to integrate the system, converting an item transactional system to be order processor.

The newest addition to OPEX’s portfolio of warehouse automation technology joins the company’s Cortex® equipment management and order fulfillment software platform, developed to power OPEX’s Perfect Pick®, Perfect Pick® HD and Infinity® warehouse automation solutions.

OPEX is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2025, marking five decades as a trusted partner to clients around the world in need of customized, scalable solutions that transform how business is conducted. The company continues to provide multi-generational industry expertise, a proven track record developing first-class automation capabilities and advanced engineering, and a heritage of excellence.

About OPEX

Statens Serum Institut Large Danish Study Finds No Link Between Vaccines and Autism or 49 Other Health Conditions

 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- A new Danish study finds no association between aluminum in childhood vaccines and 50 different health conditions, including autism, asthma, and autoimmune diseases. The findings reaffirm the safety of Denmark’s childhood vaccination program.

An extensive new Danish register-based study - the largest of its kind - supports the safety of the national childhood immunization program. Analyzing data from over 1 million children, the study found no increased risk of autism, asthma, or autoimmune diseases in vaccinated children.

“Our results are reassuring. By analyzing data from more than one million Danish children, we found absolutely no indication that the very small amount of aluminum used in the childhood vaccination program increases the risk of 50 different health outcomes during childhood,” says Anders Hviid, Head of Department at Statens Serum Institut (SSI) and principal investigator on the study.

Aluminum, used as an adjuvant to enhance the immune response, has been a component in some vaccines since the 1930s.

Researchers from SSI used Denmark’s unique national health registers to follow children born between 1997 and 2018, investigating the associations between aluminum-containing vaccines and a total of 50 health outcomes - including asthma, allergies, autoimmune conditions, and neurodevelopmental disorders.

“This is the first study of this scale and with such comprehensive analyses, and it confirms the strong safety profile of the vaccines we’ve used for decades in Denmark,” says Anders Hviid.

The results are being published at a time of heightened international debate about vaccine safety which makes the Danish study highly relevant.

“In an era marked by widespread misinformation about vaccines, it is crucial to rely on solid scientific evidence. Large, population-based register studies like this one - tracking more than a million children over many years - are a bulwark against the politicization of health science which undermines public trust in vaccines. It is absolutely essential to distinguish real science from politically motivated campaigns - otherwise, it is the children who will end up paying the price,” says Anders Hviid.

Fact Box:

Researchers from Statens Serum Institut (SSI) used Denmark’s unique health registers to analyze data from more than 1 million Danish children born between 1997 and 2018 to investigate potential long-term health effects of aluminum-containing vaccines.

The study examined 50 different conditions and found no statistical association between aluminum content in vaccines and increased risk of developing autism, autoimmune diseases, asthma, or allergic conditions such as hay fever and food allergies.

The study has just been published in the prestigious medical journal Annals of Internal Medicine.

Autonomous Agents Set to Revolutionize Transportation Management

 Global research from Manhattan Associates finds integration difficulties and data quality remain significant hurdles for organizations looking to leverage AI across transportation management

(BUSINESS WIRE) -- Manhattan Associates Inc. (NASDAQ: MANH), the global leader in supply chain commerce, today announced the findings of its latest collaboration with international research firm Vanson Bourne. The global research surveyed 1,450 senior decision-makers* from organizations in manufacturing, retail, wholesale, consumer goods, grocery and food & beverage sectors, across North America, Latin America, Europe and Australia.

“Transportation is the backbone of supply chains, essential to ensuring goods are delivered on time to meet customer expectations,” commented Bryant Smith, director, Transportation Management Systems (TMS) at Manhattan Associates. “Yet, managing transportation is becoming increasingly complex, pressured by demands on shorter fulfilment times, capacity and cost efficiencies, tighter sustainability regulations, and the growing necessity for access to end-to-end visibility across all operations,” Smith added.

Fragmented systems: operational visibility and efficiency still challenging

The true value of visibility extends beyond simply accessing operational data: it lies in the ability to address issues highlighted by this information and action operational improvements more quickly and efficiently. Beyond disruptions however, 60% of organizations say that enhancing visibility leads to greater customer satisfaction, through more accurate and timely updates, while 50% cite reductions in transportation costs as a key benefit of increased operational visibility.

The AI revolution: excitement but readiness challenges

61% of organizations anticipate fully autonomous Agentic AI, capable of acting independently to achieve specific goals within the next five years, however, only 37% have deeply integrated AI and machine learning in their TMS today.

While many might view five years in the AI space like an eon, the gap between future expectations and current usage is noteworthy given adoption is rarely straightforward: although almost half (48%) said that they already feel very prepared for autonomous agents by 2030, practically every organization (99%) reported facing, or expecting to face, hurdles, with concerns including skill shortages (49%), integration difficulties (44%) and data quality and availability issues (44%).

With many organizations seemingly well-placed to take advantage of the cost, efficiency and scalability gains afforded by autonomous agents, those organizations on the other side need to rethink their AI strategies otherwise they risk losing significant (and possibly irretrievable) market share to rivals.

Sustainability compliance: a priority and significant pain point

The push for more sustainable transportation is widespread. 69% of organizations say sustainability is either a global mandate or an area of significant pressure, with 62% already implementing Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive reporting. Navigating complex and shifting compliance requirements remains a global challenge, with sustainability compliance most frequently cited as a constraint expected to impact organizational performance over the next five years. A modern TMS can help to deliver the data visibility and functionality needed to measure progress and demonstrate compliance, vital to ensuring sustainability remains at the forefront of organizational thinking.

Smith summarized: “Modern transportation management demands organizations balance a range of competing priorities, and the research clearly illustrates many organizations are still unprepared to meet the challenges of evolving sustainability mandates, expectations around AI and the need for more visible, actionable data insights. Looking ahead to 2030, these demands will intensify, increasing the pressure on organizations to operate transportation operations in smarter more intuitive ways.

“87% of respondents anticipate that challenges in areas such as operational visibility, AI adoption and sustainability compliance will intensify, leaving their current Transportation Management Systems struggling to keep pace. Failure to act now will expose organizations to rising costs, questions over long-term efficacy, and the risk of falling short of customer promises,” Smith finished.

Additional stats:

48% of organizations spend more than 10% of their transportation logistics budget on errors and disruptions

78% view transportation management as a strategic imperative for success and this figure rises to 86% by 2030

61% are anticipating fully autonomous Agentic AI, capable of acting independently to achieve specific goals, or minimal human oversight within the next five years for TMS

50% report challenges in proactively rerouting shipments, while 49% struggle with optimizing dock and warehouse labor scheduling

82% express strong confidence that advances in planning, forecasting and modelling will reduce freight costs by at least 5% within the next five years.

Organizations are still struggling to operationalize sustainability: only 34% say they’ve factored sustainability into operational planning, 30% into procurement decisions, and just 31% offer carbon-friendly fuel solutions.

While a majority have integrated their TMS with Sales and Operations Planning systems (60%) and are utilizing predictive analytics or AI (56%), far fewer are capitalizing on key enablers such as historical trend analysis (38%), automated booking and tendering (36%), or real-time demand sensing (35%).

*Methodology: Vanson Bourne surveyed 1,450 senior decision makers with responsibility for or knowledge of their organization’s transportation management operations, working within transportation, logistics, supply chain, IT or finance functions. Respondents must operate within the manufacturing, retail, wholesale, consumer goods, grocery and food & beverage sectors. The survey interviewed respondents from North America, Latin America, Europe and Australia. All respondents came from organizations with at least US$750 million in global annual revenue.

PUMA and Manchester City Announce Long-Term Extension to Successful Global Partnership

 HERZOGENAURACH, Germany - Tuesday, 15. July 2025

(BUSINESS WIRE) -- Sports company PUMA and Premier League football club Manchester City have signed a long-term extension of their partnership, which since the 2019/20 season has exceeded all expectations on and off the pitch.

The contract extension will allow PUMA and Manchester City to continue to innovate and create products that appeal to the club’s ever-growing global community of fans over the coming seasons.

“PUMA’s partnership with Manchester City has been a great success both on and off the pitch,” said PUMA Chief Executive Officer Arthur Hoeld. “Trophies, a perfect stage for our performance products and commercial success were exceptional.”

PUMA has celebrated many successes with the club during the partnership - most notably the Treble Winning 2022/23 season, four consecutive Premier League titles, and several domestic cup competition wins for the men’s first team and an FA Cup and League Cup victory for Manchester City Women.

During the partnership, Manchester City’s Elite Development Squad (EDS) has also secured four Premier League 2 titles and the Under-18s have won two FA Youth Cups and were named Premier League National Champions on three occasions.

Commercially, PUMA and Manchester City have set new club sales global records over the years and co-created iconic, best-selling kits such as the 2022/23 Colin Bell inspired home shirt worn during the treble-winning season.

“We joined forces with PUMA with the ambition to challenge ourselves and go beyond the expectations. We have achieved this and more over the last six seasons,” said Ferran Soriano, Chief Executive Officer of City Football Group. “PUMA have seamlessly integrated into our organisation, and we've enjoyed many historic moments together, engaging fans globally. Today’s renewal and extension solidifies our relationship and projects it to an even brighter future.”

PUMA and Manchester City have introduced industry-leading innovations both in terms of product and marketing campaigns over the past seasons. In 2022, they launched a kit in the metaverse for the first time with partner Roblox and more recently invited Man City fans to design a future kit by using AI technology.

PUMA’s subsidiary STICHD is the exclusive retail partner of Manchester City and helped expand the club’s retail footprint with the opening of City Stores in Manchester Arndale, within the ‘City Challenge’ in Yas Mall, Abu Dhabi and the four-month pop-up City Store at Rockefeller Centre, New York last summer. Manchester City’s online store ManCity.com is also operated by STICHD. As part of this new long-term partnership there is a commitment to continue the global expansion of the City Store network including a new flagship store as part of the ongoing development of the Etihad Campus.

Manchester City has also supported PUMA with sustainability initiatives such as its innovative RE:FIBRE recycling project. Since 2024, all Manchester City replica shirts are manufactured using RE:FIBRE materials that were recycled from factory off-cuts, faulty goods, and pre-loved clothing as the primary source of material.

PUMA are also partner of City Football Group clubs Melbourne City FC, Girona, Lommel, Mumbai City FC, Montevideo, Palermo, Bolivia and most recently Bahia and ESTAC.

PUMA is one of the world’s leading sports brands, designing, developing, selling and marketing footwear, apparel and accessories.

KnowBe4 Delivers AI-Driven Email Security to Small and Medium Businesses to Tackle Outbound Email Risk

 

TAMPA BAY, Fla. -

Using advanced machine learning, neural networks and behavioral analytics, KnowBe4 Prevent mitigates outbound email data breaches

(BUSINESS WIRE)--KnowBe4, the world-renowned cybersecurity platform that comprehensively addresses human risk management, today announced the release of KnowBe4 Prevent across all market segments – an AI-driven email security product designed to enable organizations to manage the problem of outbound email risk. Following the release of Prevent Enterprise, Prevent is now available to suit the needs of small to medium-sized businesses.

In 2025, human error remains the leading cause of data breaches (according to Verizon, 60% of incidents involve the ‘human element’). The overwhelming volume of digital communications creates more opportunities for employees to expose sensitive information to the wrong recipients, attaching incorrect files, or inadvertently including confidential data. These breaches incur severe penalties, financial losses, and reputational damage, underscoring the critical need for prevention. However, traditional Data Loss Prevention (DLP) offerings rely solely on inflexible static rules and lack real visibility into what is being sent, to whom, and when.

To address this challenge, KnowBe4 introduces Prevent, an AI-native outbound email security product that alerts your employees in real time when they are about to send emails and attachments to the wrong person. Prevent proactively detects and stops the full spectrum of outbound email security threats, including:

Misdirected emails to incorrect recipients, including those as a result of autocomplete

Unauthorized sharing of sensitive information

Replies to suspicious emails and newly registered domains

Data exfiltration attempts by malicious insiders or compromised accounts

Misattached files, including hidden data within attachments (Prevent Enterprise)

Internal unauthorized disclosure and breach of information barriers (Prevent Enterprise)

Combined with detailed reporting and analytics, security teams are able to get a complete view of outbound security risk across the organization, behavioral analytics of users’ interactions with Prevent’s prompts and quantification of the prevented incidents to demonstrate efficacy and return on investment (ROI).

“Outbound email risk continues to be one of the most persistent and costly challenges an organization can face – one that requires smarter, more adaptive approaches to effectively address them,” said Greg Kras, chief product officer at KnowBe4. “KnowBe4 has a proven track record of effectively addressing Human Risk Management, so we are proud to expand that coverage to include outbound email risk. Prevent is the most intelligent and proactive outbound email security product among today's email data loss prevention methods. Unlike traditional products, it uses advanced machine learning and contextual understanding of user behavior to identify risky actions in real time and prevent a data breach before it occurs. This allows organizations to stop incidents at the source, empower employees to make safer decisions, and enable security teams to manage and reduce risk at scale.”

 HONG KONG - Tuesday, 15. July 2025 AETOSWire 

(BUSINESS WIRE) -- MultiBank Group, the world’s largest and most regulated financial derivatives institution, has set a new benchmark in digital asset launches. The Group’s $MBG Token Pre-Sale sold out in less than one hour with all 7 million tokens fully subscribed across MultiBank.io and Uniswap.

Priced at $0.35 per token, the entire allocation was claimed almost instantly. This exceptional level of interest marks one of the most successful offerings in the digital asset space this year, highlighting intense demand for asset-backed products with real-world utility.

Following thousands of additional requests, MultiBank Group will open a second and final $MBG Token Pre-Sale on Friday 18th of July, ahead of the official Token Generation Event (TGE) on July 22. This last round will feature 3 million tokens at the exclusive price of $0.35, giving early participants one last chance to join before trading begins. The final $MBG Token Pre-Sale will be available through multibank.io and Uniswap.

Commenting on the success of the Pre-Sale, Naser Taher, Founder and Chairman of MultiBank Group, said: “The sell-out of our initial $MBG Token offering in less than one hour is a decisive validation of our vision. In a market saturated with speculation, the response we received confirms that institutional-grade transparency, regulatory integrity, and asset-backed value are what investors are now demanding. $MBG is here for the long term, reflecting the experience, resources, and global reach that underpin everything we do at MultiBank Group. The market has spoken, and it has spoken with speed and conviction.”

Supported by $29 billion in assets across the group’s 4 Pillars and powered by over $35 billion in daily turnover, $MBG token is engineered for substance showcasing the proven track record and compliance of one of the industry’s most trusted names.

MultiBank Group’s ecosystem is designed for resilience and growth, anchored by four pillars:

MultiBank.io RWA: Bringing $3 billion in tokenized ultra-luxury real estate to market.

Deltatre Announces Acquisition of Endeavor Streaming to Create Digital and Streaming Platform Leader

 LONDON & NEW YORK - Tuesday, 15. July 2025 AETOSWire Print 

(BUSINESS WIRE) -- Deltatre, a leading international provider of streaming, digital, data, and graphics solutions for the sports, media, and entertainment industries, today announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Endeavor Streaming from Endeavor Group Holdings, Inc.

In bringing together these complementary and proven digital and OTT providers, Deltatre is joining its advanced product suite – D3 VOLT, FORGE, AXIS, and DIVA, which delivers multi-functional digital experiences with integrated video – with Endeavor Streaming’s pure-play OTT product, VESPER. They will also unite their digital strategy, consulting, and direct-to-consumer growth marketing services.

The combined business will be best equipped to deliver for sports, media, and entertainment clients through a compelling and comprehensive range of digital experiences – all within a centralized partnership with Deltatre – moving away from the complexity of tactical, multi-vendor service provider deployments.

The joint portfolio of clients includes many of the world’s most prominent sports and media properties – including the NFL, UFC, Sky, Rogers, NBA, WWE, MLB, BritBox, Bell Media, LIV Golf, ICC, World Rugby, and UEFA – reflecting decades of experience delivering digital and OTT services with proven quality, reliability, and performance at scale.

“Together, we are extremely well-positioned to lead at every level of the industry – and this investment underscores our commitment to broadening the value we bring to existing and future clients. Endeavor Streaming is a highly respected player in our industry and its offerings are a natural complement to our existing products and services,” said Andrea Marini, CEO of Deltatre. “I strongly believe this move positions Deltatre as a leader in delivering high-quality, fully integrated digital and OTT deployments.”

“Endeavor Streaming has established itself as a trusted partner to the world’s largest sports and media companies, as they transition their businesses from linear-driven experiences into a direct-to-consumer driven future,” said Fred Santarpia, President of Endeavor Streaming. “With Deltatre, we look forward to delivering even greater opportunities to create value for our partners in growing audiences and revenue.”

Deltatre and Endeavor Streaming have also focused heavily on the productization of their platforms and services – enabling repeatable, cost-effective, and rapid deployment – coupled with a large engineering function for customized launches. Together, the companies will be positioned to continue serving the largest global platforms as well as smaller properties and regional players.

The acquisition further strengthens Deltatre’s global footprint with extended operational support across the U.S., Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.

The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.

Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP is serving as legal advisor to Deltatre, and New Deal Advisors SpA is acting as its financial advisor. Latham & Watkins LLP is serving as legal advisor to Endeavor Group Holdings, Inc., and The Raine Group is acting as its financial advisor.

Over nearly four decades, it has built the trust of many of the world’s biggest broadcasters, telcos, sports teams, leagues, federations, and governing bodies.
