Xinhua Silk Road: Dialogue promotes mutual learning, exchanges between Liangzhu and Samarkand cultural heritages

Xinhua Silk Road — Fri, 10 Jul 2026 14:46:28 +0900

BEIJING, July 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- A cross-civilization dialogue event between the Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City in Hangzhou, east China's Zhejiang Province, and the historic town of Samarkand in Uzbekistan was held on July 6, aiming to promote mutual learning and exchanges among civilizations.

As part of a series of events of the "Liangzhu and the World" program, the dialogue attracted over 100 participants from China and Uzbekistan gathering at the Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City in Hangzhou, discussing topics including heritage values, conservation and management, and approaches to revitalizing cultural heritages.

First discovered in 1936 in the lower reaches of China's longest river, the Yangtze River, the Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2019. The historic town of Samarkand, considered as a crossroad of cultures along the ancient Silk Road, was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2001.

The dialogue not only provided a high-level platform for exchanges between the two cities, but also marked the first time that the "Liangzhu and the World" program has partnered with an Asian world heritage site.

During the dialogue, participants discussed topics focusing on heritage revitalization and mutual learning among civilizations of Silk Road cities, consolidation of China-Uzbekistan cooperation in archaeological research, earthen-site conservation, digital technologies and the integration of culture and tourism, offering an Asian model for coordinated world heritage conservation and dialogue among civilizations.

Ahead of the dialogue, the Uzbek delegation visited the Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City and a world heritage monitoring center, where they explored Liangzhu's integrated approach to heritage conservation and public engagement with the help of digital technologies, including AI-powered smart glasses.

Farhod Nishonov, deputy mayor of Samarkand, spoke highly of Liangzhu's systematic conservation model, saying it offers valuable experience for the management of Samarkand. He said Samarkand would draw on Liangzhu's practices and, leveraging the sister-city relationship with Hangzhou, promote joint exhibitions, two-way cultural and tourism exchanges, and youth exchange programs.

"This is the fifth year since the inauguration of the 'Liangzhu and the World' program. We hope not only to share Liangzhu's experience in heritage conservation but also to learn from Central Asian cities in heritage operation and management, bringing the people of our two countries closer through these two civilization landmarks," said Yang Xiaoping, deputy director of the Management Committee of the Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City.

iQIYI International Releases First Half of 2026 Global Trending Content: Chinese Dramas and Micro Dramas Power Dual-Engine Global Growth

iQIYI Inc. — Fri, 10 Jul 2026 12:16:55 +0900

BEIJING, July 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- On July 9, iQIYI, China's leading online entertainment platform, released its Global Trending Content for the first half of 2026, recording a 130% year-on-year surge in total viewership across its international platform.

This robust growth is driven by the "long + short" strategy, with premium long-form Chinese dramas and micro dramas serving as the dual engines of overseas expansion. Localization has been equally critical: subtitles across 13 languages, high-quality dubbing, and on-the-ground fan engagement events have deepened audience engagement across key markets. A rich mix of Asian productions from Thailand, South Korea, Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia, and beyond has broadened the platform's appeal further, cementing iQIYI International's position as the destination for global audiences seeking diverse Asian popular culture.

Launched in January, iQIYI International's Global Trending Content gives users and partners a clear view of what is gaining traction worldwide. The H1 2026 viewership data reveals distinct content preferences across key markets. Southeast Asia continues to show strong demand for premium Chinese dramas and localized content, while audiences in East Asia are increasingly drawn to fast-paced micro dramas. In the Middle East and Latin America, premium long-form dramas remain highly appealing, with localization continuing to play an important role in expanding audience reach.

What Topped the Charts in H1 2026

In H1 2026, all 10 titles in iQIYI International's top Chinese drama chart were iQIYI self-produced, spanning historical epics, contemporary romance, and coming-of-age narratives. Leading the pack, "Pursuit of Jade" ranked first across all content categories on the platform and has been the most-searched Chinese historical drama on Google globally since 2025, driven by its female-growth narrative and eastern aesthetic. Three titles from iQIYI International's 2025 annual top 10 Chinese dramas — "Fated Hearts," "The Best Thing," and "Speed and Love" — returned to the chart, reflecting the sustained long-tail appeal of premium content.

Micro dramas are fast becoming a primary entry point for international audiences discovering Chinese content. Their high emotional intensity, high-stakes conflict, and rapid pacing fit naturally into mobile-first, fragmented viewing habits. Contemporary romance, female empowerment, and class-reversal storylines dominate the top 10 micro dramas, with "Midnight Temptation" ranking as the top micro drama globally for its narrative of female growth and the pursuit of equal respect.

Beyond dramas, a broad slate of Asian animation, films, and variety shows continues to serve the full range of audience interests worldwide.

Meeting Audiences Where They Are

Through 13-language subtitling, localized dubbing, and the "iQIYI Starship Project" fan engagement initiative, iQIYI International is deepening its localization and presence, tailoring its approach to the distinct viewing preferences of each market.

In Southeast Asia, dubbing quality and offline fan engagement events are key drivers of viewership. In Thailand, seven Chinese dramas with Thai-language dubbing entered the local top 10. The "iQIYI Starship Project" has amplified this further, bringing cast members from popular titles to Thailand, Malaysia, and beyond for fan events that have directly boosted local viewership.

In East Asia, micro dramas now account for half of the top 10 trending titles in Japan and South Korea, where audiences show a strong appetite for fast-paced, high-density storytelling. In Latin America, expanded Spanish and Portuguese dubbing has opened Asian content to a significantly wider audience. In the Middle East, viewer preferences remain consistent, with realism and military-themed premium dramas continuing to lead, reflecting a taste for high-stakes, emotionally grounded narratives.

Looking ahead, iQIYI International is committed to becoming a home for beloved Asian content, delivering richer, more immersive content experiences that carry genuine emotional and cultural resonance for global audiences.

With Launch of CPS Segmentation, Cyolo Offers First Secure Connectivity Platform for Critical Infrastructure

Cyolo — Fri, 10 Jul 2026 10:30:15 +0900

The new offering extends Cyolo's secure remote privileged access platform into microsegmentation, giving enterprises the unified visibility, context, and governance needed to reduce connectivity risk across critical infrastructure as AI increases the speed and scale of cyberattacks.

MIRAMAR, Fla., July 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Cyolo, the leading provider of secure remote privileged access for critical infrastructure, operational technology (OT), and cyber-physical systems (CPS), today announced Cyolo CPS Segmentation, expanding its platform beyond human-to-machine access into machine-to-machine communication control. CPS Segmentation gives industrial and critical infrastructure organizations a unified way to discover assets, visualize communications, validate policies through simulation, and enforce connectivity controls across internal and external users, systems, and operational assets—helping limit lateral movement, reduce blast radius, and maximize uptime.

For years, organizations have recognized the value of segmentation for securing their most important assets but have struggled to put it into practice. Traditional approaches demand complex network redesigns and risky infrastructure changes in environments where downtime is not an option. As a consequence, many industrial organizations deferred segmentation, settling instead on detection-and-response practices to protect their environments.

But that reactive model is no longer sufficient. As the attack surface expands — with AI-enabled threats accelerating attacks and operations becoming increasingly connected — organizations need to contain threats before they can spread laterally. Segmentation has become essential to protecting operational continuity.

Cyolo understands critical infrastructure environments, where uptime is non-negotiable, legacy systems are common, implementation resources are limited, and security controls cannot come at the cost of operational disruption. Designed specifically for these realities, Cyolo CPS Segmentation delivers practical, risk-based microsegmentation that fits the way industrial organizations operate.

Built on Cyolo's proven true Zero Trust architecture, which keeps all sensitive data under customer governance, CPS Segmentation supports the full microsegmentation lifecycle — from discovering assets and communication flows to creating, validating, and enforcing policies. With capabilities that include shadow-access discovery, visual flow mapping, blast-radius analysis, intelligent grouping, policy recommendations, and pre-enforcement simulation, organizations can identify connectivity risks, validate changes with confidence, and limit lateral movement without disruptive redesigns, lengthy implementation projects, or added complexity.

"We've pursued a single goal since Cyolo was founded — to help the organizations that keep our world running control every connection across their critical infrastructure," said Almog Apirion, CEO and co-founder at Cyolo. "We started with human-to-machine access, and now we're bringing the same OT-native security principles to machine-to-machine communication control. As AI helps attackers move faster and farther, the ability to stop lateral movement and reduce blast radius has never been more crucial. We built Cyolo CPS Segmentation to solve that challenge."

Cyolo CPS Segmentation is the latest addition to the broader Cyolo platform, which brings together remote privileged access, identity security, malware detection, secure web access, endpoint security, and a broad ecosystem of security integrations. Together, these capabilities provide critical infrastructure and industrial organizations with a unified foundation for protecting the people, processes, assets, data, and AI-driven systems that power critical operations.

About Cyolo

Cyolo secures every connection in OT and critical infrastructure environments. Manufacturers, data center operators, energy and utility organizations, and other critical infrastructure providers rely on Cyolo to protect both human-to-machine and machine-to-machine communications across their cyber-physical systems (CPS).

Purpose-built for environments where uptime is the top priority, Cyolo makes secure connectivity surprisingly simple. With solutions for secure remote privileged access and CPS segmentation, Cyolo provides the visibility and control organizations need to enforce Zero Trust without disrupting operation.

Cyolo helps keep the world's most critical operations secure, resilient, and ready for what's next.

MuMuPlayer 6.0 is designed for players who want to run mobile games on PC with a larger screen, keyboard-and-mouse controls, multi-instance support, and a more stable gameplay environment.

The key update in MuMuPlayer 6.0 is support for Android 15. MuMuPlayer is currently the only Android emulator for PC supporting Android 15, providing users with a higher Android system environment for newer and more demanding mobile games.

In addition to Android 15 support, MuMuPlayer 6.0 includes stability and graphics optimizations intended to improve the gameplay experience on PC. The update strengthens OpenGL support for a wider range of mainstream PCs, including devices with older graphics cards or outdated drivers. It also improves graphics compatibility for selected high-performance mobile games.

"MuMuPlayer 6.0 reflects our focus on practical gameplay needs," said a MuMuPlayer spokesperson. "Players want mobile games to install successfully, launch smoothly, and remain stable during gameplay. Android 15 support gives us a stronger foundation to improve compatibility for newer mobile games on PC."

MuMuPlayer 6.0 also provides flexible Android system management, allowing players to create and manage Android 12 and Android 15 instances separately. This makes it easier to choose the right system environment for different games, whether players are enjoying current titles or exploring newer releases.

To support global mobile gaming scenarios, MuMuPlayer is also expanding features such as MuMuStore, game translation, and game acceleration. MuMuStore helps users access mobile game packages more conveniently, while translation and acceleration features are designed to support players exploring games across different regions and languages.

With Android 15 support, improved stability, and additional tools for global game access, MuMuPlayer 6.0 aims to provide a more compatible and practical PC environment for mobile gaming.

・Lays the foundation for Wilton Re's future AI capabilities and operational efficiencies.
・Marks a 20-year partnership that has supported Wilton Re's growth from ~5,000 policies in 2005 to more than 500,000 today, with DXC operating core insurance functions end to end.

ASHBURN, Va., July 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- DXC Technology (NYSE: DXC), a leading enterprise technology and innovation partner, today announced the successful completion of one of the largest transformation programs in the company's history with Wilton Re, a leading acquirer of life and annuity in-force blocks of business. The program converted over 400,000 policies from prior DXC technologies onto DXC's most advanced, cloud-based insurance policy administration ecosystem. This milestone was achieved through the combination of DXC's insurance Business Process Services (BPS) expertise, large-scale conversion capabilities, and operational support model with Wilton Re's unique approach to risk management and extensive experience in executing these types of large transformations.

DXC and Wilton Re Mark 20-Year Partnership, Complete Cloud Conversion of 400,000 Policy Portfolio

Designed and Built for the Future

Over the last 20+ years, Wilton Re has expanded its portfolio significantly, driving a growing need to rapidly integrate newly acquired life and annuity businesses. Each acquisition requires the conversion of unique systems, data structures, and servicing processes that must be migrated without disrupting the policyholder experience. To support future growth and accelerate onboarding, Wilton Re has standardized on DXC's Wealth Management Accelerator (wmA), a unified, cloud-based policy administration platform. By creating a common operating environment for acquired portfolios, Wilton Re expects to enable faster integration and greater operational efficiency while laying the groundwork for implementing future AI strategies.

"Our 20-year partnership with Wilton Re reflects what long-term execution with excellence at scale looks like. This transformation helps Wilton Re grow its business, integrate acquisitions faster, operate more efficiently, and deliver a better experience for policyholders.

A Two-Decade Partnership Built to Scale

DXC BPS operates much of Wilton Re's core insurance environment, including policy administration, claims processing, and customer service, acting as an extension of Wilton Re's operations team. Backed by more than 6,000 insurance specialists globally, over 13 million policies and contracts under administration, and more than 200 successful conversions from legacy systems, DXC brings deep operational and conversion expertise to Wilton Re's business. With Wilton Re's acquisitions, DXC leads the integration of systems, data, product rules, processes, and, in some cases, operational teams from originating insurers, helping ensure a seamless transition for policyholders while accelerating integration timelines. Over the last two decades, DXC and Wilton Re have developed a repeatable, scalable conversion methodology and operating model, helping the company grow from approximately 5,000 policies in 2005 to more than 500,000 today.

"DXC has been far more than a technology provider. In addition to supporting the integration of multiple acquisitions, they play a critical role in our day-to-day operations, from policy administration and customer service to key financial processes. The partnership has helped us operate more efficiently, execute acquisitions more effectively, and better serve our policyholders while maintaining the high standards that define our business. Over the past two decades, our collaboration has become a benchmark for the industry."— Enrico Treglia, Senior Advisor, Wilton Re

Built for the Next Phase of AI-Powered Growth

By consolidating onto wmA, Wilton Re has established a modern cloud foundation capable of supporting future AI-enabled workflow capabilities without requiring additional core system transformations, creating a foundation for continued innovation and operational efficiency as the company expands.

With more than 40 years of insurance industry expertise, DXC is a trusted partner to 21 of the top 25 insurers worldwide.

Cognizant to scale to 5,000 Frontier Certified Engineers and 10,000 Frontier Business Operators

Cognizant Technology Solutions — Fri, 10 Jul 2026 10:16:54 +0900

・Cognizant's Frontier workforce model to create the human infrastructure that turns AI investment into enterprise outcomes
・Backed by decades of running technology and operations at enterprise scale, Cognizant's human capital operating model embeds outcome-owning Frontier talent inside client operations
・Cognizant Frontier talent operates across any cloud, any model to help close the gap between AI capability and enterprise results

TEANECK, N.J., July 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Cognizant (Nasdaq: CTSH), a leading AI Builder and technology services provider, today announced it was committing to scaling its Frontier-certified workforce, the human and operational infrastructure enterprises need to convert AI capability into measurable business results, to 5,000 Frontier Certified Engineers and 10,000 Frontier Business Operators.

Cognizant is an AI Builder company www.cognizant.ai

Cognizant's people investment will yield its first cohort, which will be both Frontier-assessed and deployment-ready, by fourth quarter, 2026. Cognizant also plans to augment its own Frontier talent pipeline through annual direct hires of Frontier-native talent from American and global universities.

This human capital investment is focused on solving an urgent problem facing enterprises today: most organizations have spent more on AI than on any technology in a generation, and most have little to show for it. Cognizant measures the gap between what AI can deliver and what enterprises actually realize at $4.5 trillion. That gap is not a compute problem. It is a people and process problem, and it will not be closed by provisioning more infrastructure. The required investment is skilling and deploying more Frontier-ready talent into client-oriented delivery to help clients realize a return on their technology investment.

"Closing the AI outcome gap demands talent who not only understands a client's industry deeply but can also reimagine the way work is structured and take end-to-end responsibility for delivering results in collaboration with clients, on any model or cloud the client selects," said Cognizant CEO Ravi Kumar S. "That is what a Frontier workforce does. By taking accountability for outcomes rather than stopping at technology deployment, we can help clients accelerate measurable results while managing risk. Cognizant's industry context and experience position us uniquely to unlock the value that has remained out of reach during this shift toward outcome-based delivery and a new chapter in human capital."

Cognizant's Frontier workforce is model- and cloud-agnostic by design. Its teams build an organization's unique context into whatever stack the client has already chosen, across a partnership footprint that spans Anthropic, OpenAI, Microsoft, Google, AWS, NVIDIA, Salesforce, and ServiceNow. The result is durable capability designed for enterprise ownership and portability across environments, otherwise known as solutions that are geared towards the problems being experienced by our client, not the closest thing a proprietary platform can accomplish.

"AI has exposed 93% of jobs to change, and the associated labor value remains untapped because the workforce architecture built for a pre-AI world cannot capture it. So we rebuilt the architecture for the world we are in now," said Cognizant Chief People Officer, Kathy Diaz. "Industry domain depth is a core strength of Cognizant, and we bring enterprise-scale experience across technology, processes and operations. We know how to take these powerful frontier tools and turn them into real business value, and we are training our workforce to do it at scale."

Cognizant Chief Learning Officer, Thiru Arohi said: "We are developing a new professional identity for the AI era. We are investing in the infrastructure behind this identity: the Academy, the assessment architecture, the certification pathway, and the talent pipeline from campus to senior practitioner. What we are scaling is not headcount, but a workforce capable of closing the outcome gap that no model, platform, or deployment engineer can close alone."

This Frontier model is anchored in six principles: interdisciplinary capability; a direct linkage to customer value; building, deploying, or working alongside agents as routine; end-to-end accountability; delivery through a small operational pod; and a single, unified Cognizant experience for the client. The workforce will be organized as a single premium job family of seven roles across two complementary tracks, Frontier Certified Engineers and Frontier Business Operators:

・Frontier Certified Engineers: Frontier Certified Engineers architect and build agentic systems, engineer the retrieval and context layers that keep those systems grounded in domain reality, and orchestrate multi-agent pipelines into live production, remaining accountable for every system they deploy, including ongoing monitoring, tuning and improvement cycles that follow go-live. They are where industry domain expertise, full-stack AI engineering and production accountability converge in a single practitioner. They enter a client environment already fluent in its regulatory constraints, operational failure modes and business logic, and use that fluency to determine not just what AI can do, but what it should do, and how it must be governed to be trusted in alignment with client requirements.

・Frontier Business Operators: Frontier Business Operators are responsible for delivering operational outcomes in collaboration with client stakeholders in environments where the workforce is simultaneously human and digital, managing agent fleets and human teams against a committed outcome, in real time, with no separation between the two. Their edge is not technical configuration; it is the judgment that comes from having run the operations floors, claims pipelines, and service workflows that AI agents are now being asked to take on. They know how to feed every exception and override back into agent calibration, so the system is continuously refined to improve reliability over time.

What sets these roles apart from being forward deployed engineers is permanence, accountability and something that cannot be trained overnight: Cognizant's deep industry domain expertise and the hard-won experience of an AI builder running enterprise operations at scale. The model is already live — a two-person Engineer-and-Operator pod recently reimagined a large food service company's account-management workflow into seventeen production AI agents, reclaiming roughly eleven hours per account manager each week while cutting handoff cycles by about 60 percent and nearly tripling their revenue per engagement.

Underpinning the commitment is a model built to scale and to reach the client. Cognizant stands up local capacity inside client clusters so certified pods deploy close to the work they own, while its global capability centers supply the talent base behind them. The elevation funnel narrows at each stage: from a broad base of AI-fluency skilling across hundreds of thousands of associates, through structured AI-Bridge programs to 40,000 in Frontier certification, credentialed directly by the frontier-model companies, including GitHub Copilot, Google Gemini, Anthropic's Claude, and OpenAI's Codex. Today's announced investment will expand Cognizant's SkillSpring™ capacity, deliver AI-fluency and responsible-AI training across the workforce, and fund embedded client engagements worldwide.

For enterprises, the payoff is measured where it matters most: AI investment converted into business results, delivering value from the technology stack they already run, with accountability through an AI builder firm that lasts well beyond go-live. In committing to the people who deliver those outcomes, Cognizant is making a strategic bet that the defining edge of the AI era will be human and operational, and positioning its clients to pursue the financial return from their technology investment which has eluded them. That is the future of AI: not just capability, but outcomes that endure.

nubia Neo 5 GT Special Edition Debuts with the First and Only Liquid and Air Dual Active Cooling System in Its Class

ZTE Corporation — Fri, 10 Jul 2026 10:13:04 +0900

SHENZHEN, China, July 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- nubia, a highly personalized and lifestyle smartphone brand, announced the launch of nubia Neo 5 GT Special Edition, the latest addition to its Neo lineup built on the belief to bring pro-level gaming to everyone. Designed for young gamers and tech-savvy Gen Z users seeking premium gaming experience without compromise, the new device makes the sustained performance accessible to everyone through the AquaCore Cooling System - the first and only Liquid & Air Dual Active Cooling System in its class, alongside lightning-fast triggers, marathon battery life, an esports-level AI Game Space, and the exclusive AI Copilot Demi 2.0.

nubia Neo 5 GT Special Edition Debuts with the First and Only Liquid and Air Dual Active Cooling System in Its Class

"At nubia, our brand DNA is built on relentless tech innovation and deep gamer insights, enabling us to continuously push gaming smartphones forward. After eight years' commitment in esports, we believe that sustained performance matters most and the cooling management is what decides it," said Bai Keke, Vice President of ZTE, "nubia Neo 5 GT Special Edition is designed to solve that challenge by combining active air-cooling, drawn from esports PC design, with active liquid-cooling, inspired by AI server thermal management. From the built-in fan we pioneered at MWC Barcelona 2026 to liquid cooling today, we're building a thermal-first ecosystem where young gamers can stay cool, stay smooth from start to finish."

Enter a New Era of Cooling with the Revolutionary AquaCore Cooling System
At the center of this model is nubia's AquaCore Cooling System, which combines liquid cooling and air cooling in a dual-active thermal architecture. The liquid cooling system uses an AI Server-Grade Coolant built for long-term reliability. Powered by a piezoelectric micropump and a three-layer cooling film, it drives continuous coolant circulation in a clockwise flow thus to transfer heat more efficiently from core components to cooler areas. A transparent design reveals the movement of the coolant, adding a distinctive gaming aesthetic that turns the engineering into part of the device's identity.

The built-in active cooling fan works together with Through-Flow Duct Design to generate a high-speed airflow path that accelerates heat dissipation. As the liquid loop draws heat away from core components, the fan helps expel it more efficiently. To further strengthen cooling efficiency, nubia has expanded the total heat dissipation area to 33,652 mm², combining VC, graphite, and liquid cooling technologies into one ultra-large thermal architecture.

Console-Level Control for Comfortable, Responsive Gameplay
nubia has equipped the device with 550Hz Neo Triggers 5.0 paired with the 3049Hz Instant Touch Rate and Magic Touch 3.0 algorithm, achieving the industry-leading sub-5.5ms latency to deliver an instant touch response. It also features a completely flat back, the only one in its class, with refined rounded corners and a 90-degree charging cable for a more comfortable in-hand feel.

Powered by the Cold-Core Trinity with MediaTek Dimensity 7400 4nm chipset, up to 24GB Dynamic RAM and NeoTurbo Engine optimization, it's built to deliver high and stable frame rates. This device equips a 6,210mAh dual-cell battery, supported by 80W (45W PD for EU market) fast charging and Bypass Charging. It also supports 5% Extreme Mode, delivering up to 30 minutes of extra gaming.

Immersive Gaming Experience Enhanced by AI Copilot Demi
nubia Neo 5 GT Special Edition features a 6.8-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate and 4,500nits local peak brightness, delivering vivid clarity in fast-moving titles across changing light conditions. Paired with stereo dual speakers with DTS:X® Ultra and an X-axis linear motor, it creates a more immersive sensory experience.

Beyond hardware, nubia has integrated AI Copilot Demi 2.0 to complement the way users game and interact. Features such as Gaming Coach, Gaming Chatbot, and Demi Auto-Chat are designed to provide guidance, support communication, and help users stay focused without interrupting gameplay.

nubia Neo 5 GT Special Edition rolls out globally this July, starting in Southeast Asia. The device comes in Surge Black and Glacial Silver, and is available in 24GB (12GB+12GB) RAM with 256GB or 512GB of storage, backed by a five-year software update commitment, reinforcing nubia's dedication to long-term stability.

Nanjing, Istanbul seek closer cooperation on heritage conservation

The Information Office of the Nanjing Municipal People's Government — Fri, 10 Jul 2026 10:05:00 +0900

AsiaNet 201649

ISTANBUL, July 9, 2026 /Xinhua-AsiaNet/--

Officials and scholars from China's Nanjing and Türkiye's Istanbul gathered here this week for the "Nanjing-Istanbul Urban Civilization Dialogue" to exchange ideas on heritage conservation and sustainable urban development.

The dialogue was held Thursday and co-organized by China's State Council Information Office and the Chinese Embassy in Ankara, hosted by the Information Office of the Nanjing Municipal People's Government, bringing together more than 100 representatives from local governments, international organizations, academia, the publishing industry, literary communities and the media.

Nanjing and Istanbul face remarkably similar urban pressures as rapidly growing metropolises with ancient fortifications and rich cultural heritage, experts said, noting that the two cities' ongoing preservation efforts provide vital models for ancient cities.

Lu Andong, a professor at Nanjing University's School of Architecture and Urban Planning said the dialogue focused on "how civilization is passed down and innovated through cities," noting that preserving living heritage -- from Istanbul's Yedikule Bostans to Nanjing's historic neighborhoods -- is just as vital as archaeological engineering.

Participants agreed that while Nanjing and Istanbul have different historical experiences, they face many similar conservation tasks and can benefit from exchanging practical solutions.

Huriye Merve Gedik, head of the City History, Promotion and Tourism Department of the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality, said the dialogue provided an important platform for the two cities to share their heritage conservation experience.

"Even though we are thousands of kilometers apart, getting to know each other's architecture and history nourishes both sides," Gedik said.

Built in the 5th century, Istanbul's ancient city walls originally stretched about 22 km. As restoration continues on the remaining 7.2-km section, Gedik said Nanjing is an ideal counterpart, with its 14th-century Ming Dynasty city walls ranking among the longest surviving in the world and offering valuable lessons in heritage preservation.

Once connected by the flow of goods, people and ideas along the ancient Silk Road, Nanjing and Istanbul are forging new ties through cooperation in heritage conservation. Participants said the dialogue underscored the two cities' shared commitment not only to preserving their historical heritage but also to passing it on to future generations.

NCS launches enterprise AI platforms and products; deepens partnerships to accelerate AI-driven business transformation

NCS — Thu, 09 Jul 2026 10:41:57 +0900

・Expands Sunshine.AI suite to introduce sovereign-ready AI foundational and physical AI platforms, as well as agentic assistant capabilities
・Strengthens partnerships across industries including healthcare, transport, and education, to scale AI deployment
・Advances specialist talent to help organisations put AI to work on enterprise-scale transformation across their operations
・Launches a practitioner's playbook, drawing from 100+ AI projects to guide clients on getting measurable returns from their AI investments

SINGAPORE, July 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- NCS today announced an expanded Sunshine.AI suite of sovereign, enterprise-grade AI platforms and products, formed new sector-specific partnerships, and committed to training next-generation AI talent. Together, these enable organisations to move from AI experimentation to enterprise-scale transformation with the speed, security, and governance they need. The initiatives were unveiled at its annual technology forum, NCS AI Impact 2026.

NCS CEOSam Liew said, "The real opportunity isn't incremental improvement. It's redesigning core operations for exponential outcomes. To deploy AI at scale, organisations need the right partners: those who combine deep industry expertise with enterprise-grade, sovereign platforms built for real-world governance and security. They also need a strong ecosystem behind them. As an AI-led tech services company, this is exactly what we have built NCS to do. As Singapore advances its national AI agenda, we are committed to helping our clients turn that ambition into real, measurable outcomes."

To enable enterprise-wide AI transformation, NCS brings together platforms, products, specialist talent, industry partnerships, and practical implementation experience. As a result, clients can put AI to work better, faster, and safer, with security and governance built in from the start.

Enterprise-ready platforms and products to put AI into production

For organisations that need to deploy AI within their own environments while maintaining full data control, NCS' expanded Sunshine.AI suite provides sovereign, enterprise-grade AI with safety, governance, and compliance built in from day one. Built by practitioners for practitioners, the multi-model and multi-modal portfolio spans an AI foundational platform to Physical AI. This includes:

・Sunshine.core: the AI foundational platform to build and operate production-grade AI agents. Its library of reusable, mix-and-match components means teams do not need to rebuild common infrastructure.
・Sunshine.builder: an AI-powered application that lets business analysts build software applications without writing code, translating business requirements into working systems, allowing users to define what they need, analyse how it will work, validate that it meets their requirements, and deploy solutions.
・Sunshine.chilliclaw: an enterprise-ready AI assistant that embeds agentic intelligence directly into the software employees already use – from productivity suites to business systems such as ERP.
・Sunshine.commanderAI: a Physical AI platform that connects AI with real-world robotics, it acts as a single command centre for multi-vendor robot fleets, with safety and security controls built for deployment at scale.
NCS also launched RAMP (Robot and AI in-Motion Programme), a by-invitation sandbox where NCS, ・AWS Generative AI Innovation Centre (GenAIIC), Dell Technologies, and NVIDIA collaborate to build client solutions across Public Safety, Smart Buildings, and Physical Operations.
・Sunshine.guardian: NCS' AI safety and assurance engine for agentic AI in production. It follows a simple cycle: watch each agent closely, test it by simulating real attacks, and fix any issues automatically. Along the way, it produces audit-ready records that meet trusted standards.

NCS has also upgraded its proven tools with agenticAI capabilities: Sunshine.coder, which has lifted developer productivity and quality by 15%; Sunshine.operations, which has cut IT incident escalations by 40%; Sunshine.productivity, which saves employees over two hours a week. These upgrades are complemented by Sunshine.kaisense, NCS' advanced video AI platform for real-time monitoring and analysis.

Sector and technology partnerships

NCS is deploying AI in sectors where it must prove it works under real-world constraints – including healthcare, transport, and education. From helping patients recover faster, to closing learning gaps for students and freeing clinicians from routine work, these partnerships combine the sector's domain knowledge with NCS' technology expertise. These demonstrate how AI can deliver measurable outcomes in high-stakes regulated environments, beyond controlled pilots.

＊Healthcare:
・NCS signed a Memorandum of Understanding with IHH Healthcare to establish a Joint AI Centre of Excellence. This Centre will co-develop and deploy AI solutions across IHH's multinational network to enhance clinical excellence, operational efficiency, and cost management.
・With NHG Health, NCS is deploying agentic AI across pilot areas such as biometric identification, digital pathology, and HR transformation to streamline operations, strengthen clinical workflows, and improve patient outcomes.

＊Education:
・With Ngee Ann Polytechnic, NCS is deploying an AI Tutor that closes individual learning gaps. In a recent pilot, adult learners reported a positive impact. NCS is also embedding its Sunshine.coder tool into the institution's ICT curriculum to build a pipeline of AI-native talent.

＊Transport:
・With South Korea's Autonomous A2Z, NCS is building an autonomous shuttle service for its employees, integrating the ROii vehicle with NCS' RobotManager platform to create an operational blueprint for future client projects.

＊Enterprise AI:
・NCS is partnering with Alibaba Cloud, a leading global provider of AI infrastructure and the intelligence backbone of Alibaba Group, to accelerate the adoption of enterprise AI solutions for diverse sectors across the region. By combining Alibaba Cloud, as well as Qwen's AI platforms and foundation models with NCS' expertise in AI governance, security, systems integration, and implementation, the partnership enables organisations to adopt AI securely while optimising performance, scalability, and cost efficiency.

＊Physical AI and Healthtech: NCS is expanding into Physical AI and human-centric care through exoskeleton technology and integrated healthcare solutions, working with:
・Fourier Rehab, a global leader in rehabilitation technology, to deploy medical exoskeletons to accelerate patient recovery.
・Hypershell, the world's leading consumer exoskeleton brand, to advance all-terrain exoskeletons that extend mobility beyond the hospital, into daily life and demanding work environments.
・iMedWay, a leading healthcare IT solutions provider, to deliver comprehensive digital solutions to achieve data-driven efficiency and better patient outcomes.
・LinkDoc, to bring AI-driven clinical trials and regulatory innovation to healthcare clients across Asia Pacific, strengthening NCS' healthcare technology offerings. LinkDoc is a healthcare AI technology company transforming clinical trials through data and advanced AI to accelerate research for drugs and medical devices, advancing innovation across the life sciences industry.

Today's announcements add to the growing ecosystem of best-in-class technology partners NCS has built throughout the year. These include AI leader Mistral AI, data platform pioneer VAST Data, humanoid robotics specialist AGIBOT, and enterprise AI deployment company Lian Xin. Together, they give NCS and its clients access to a comprehensive range of technologies from across the global AI landscape.

Talent and skills partnerships

Scaling AI requires leaders who can combine their deep domain expertise with AI fluency. In support of Singapore's National AI Strategy 2.0, NCS is building this combination from early-career professionals to C-suite leaders to develop AI talent at every career stage.

・For Senior Leaders: NCS is partnering with leading institutions – Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD), NUS School of Continuing and Lifelong Education (SCALE), Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU), represented by SJTU Asia-Pacific Graduate Institute, and AI Singapore (AISG), to develop and deliver a range of Applied AI masterclasses. Designed for senior executives, the curriculum addresses the practical challenges of deploying AI at scale, featuring role-specific courses such as AI Economics for finance leaders and AI Governance for risk leaders.
・For Specialist AI Talent: NCS has partnered with Digital Industry Singapore (DISG) to accelerate its AI transformation and sharpen its competitive edge. Through targeted workforce development, NCS will hire more than 130 AI practitioners over three years, building advanced and differentiated AI capabilities in its AI Central team, as well as specialised expertise in its sectoral teams for Singapore's connectivity sector.

A practitioner's guide to '10X' AI returns

NCS today also released the NCS AI Playbook – a practitioner-led blueprint distilled from more than 100 AI projects. It is organised around two questions every enterprise must answer: "Are we doing the right things, and are we doing things right?"

Key points include:

＊The 3R Framework reframes AI from cost-cutting to value creation: Return on Customer, Return on Employee, and Return on Future.
＊The Five U's of Failed AI name the root causes of stalled programmes: Unclear cost, Unchanged business processes, Unready data, Ungoverned agent development, and Unknown security and safety risks.
＊The Four Execution Pillars – Cheaper, Better, Faster and Safer – operationalise AI with rigour.
・Cheaper token strategy and model selection: Every task consumes tokens, and costs compound when left unmanaged. Treating tokens as a managed cost on the balance sheet, monitored and controlled rather than left to run, and matching each task to the right-sized model instead of defaulting to the priciest frontier model, cuts costs by up to 82% and speeds up responses by three to ten times.
・Better AI-ready data and workflow redesign: AI is only as reliable as the data behind it, so grounding AI in clean, well-governed data sharply reduces the errors and hallucinations that erode trust and create business and legal risk. The biggest gains then come not from bolting AI onto legacy processes, but from reimagining the workflow itself, targeting the right use cases first.
・Faster NCS AI accelerators: Rebuilding components that already exist elsewhere wastes a substantial share of project effort. NCS' reusable, pre-tested building blocks cut this out, so teams build once and deploy many times.
・Safer built-in assurance: As AI begins to act and not just advise, it becomes both a target and a potential threat actor. Safety guardrails and AI-against-AI cyber defence, applied from day one, protect against a fast-evolving threat landscape.

Applied together, these pillars unlock the highest returns, moving enterprises away from low, short-term ROI towards long-term transformative growth. The platforms, partnerships, and talent programmes launched today put these practices into action.

Underpinning these initiatives is a new operating structure that brings sector expertise closer to clients. NCS has reorganised into 10 industry-specific Operating Groups, supported by two Service Organisations: Applications and Communications Engineering (ACE) for AI-agent-led delivery, and Digital Resilience (DR) for secure and resilient operations. This structure is anchored by the newly created AI Central team, which drives strategy, accelerates innovation, and ensures the safe and responsible adoption of AI across the organisation.

Legendary Entertainment and Warner Bros. Pictures Unveil Dune: Part Three Trailer and Behind-the-Scenes Images Showcasing Abu Dhabi as Arrakis

Abu Dhabi Film Commission (ADFC) — Thu, 09 Jul 2026 10:36:10 +0900

ABU DHABI, UAE, July 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Legendary Entertainment and Warner Bros. Pictures have unveiled the official new trailer for Dune: Part Three, marking the epic final chapter in Denis Villeneuve's Academy Award-winning saga.

The Abu Dhabi Film Commission (ADFC) also shared new behind-the-scenes images from filming in Abu Dhabi's pristine Liwa Desert for Dune: Part Three, featuring Denis Villeneuve with cast and crew on location and showcasing the continued partnership between the Commission and Legendary across all three films over the past seven years. Across the franchise, Liwa's sweeping, otherworldly landscapes have brought Arrakis to life and helped define some of its most iconic cinematic moments.

Dune: Part Three brings Denis Villeneuve's trilogy to a breathtaking conclusion, set nearly two decades after Paul Atreides seized control of the Imperium. Now a ruthless Emperor, Paul must face the consequences of his reign as old allies return, terrifying new threats emerge, and betrayal lurks in every shadow. Haunted by visions of Imperial collapse and the reappearance of his long-lost love, Paul is drawn into a sweeping conspiracy, with Chani at the heart of its unfolding mystery. As rebellion brews and enemies close in, Paul must confront the true cost of power and the fate of those he loves the most.

Grand in scale and intimate in emotion, Dune: Part Three delivers a powerful and poetic conclusion to one of the defining epics of our time. Building on the visual legacy established in Dune (2021) and Dune: Part Two (2024), Abu Dhabi's dramatic desert landscapes once again play a central role in bringing the world of Arrakis to life.

"The opportunity to again work with the incredible cast and crew from Dune: Part Three as Abu Dhabi's Liwa Desert stars as Arrakis for Denis Villeneuve's culminating installment was really a poignant and pivotal moment for the entire creative ecosystem of Abu Dhabi. Over 600 UAE-based individuals were involved with the 31 day shoot, from six interns and 38 residents in crowd scenes to 206 local crew and 336 individuals from our wider creative industry including caterers and drivers, the impact of Dune: Part Three is enormous. We, like the rest of the world, are now on an exciting countdown journey to the 16 December when we'll see the fruition of so many individual efforts, which united to provide a seamless collaboration with Legendary Entertainment." commented Sameer Al Jaberi, Head of Abu Dhabi Film Commission.

"Returning to Abu Dhabi's Liwa Desert for Dune: Part Three was never in doubt. I can't think of any place else in the world that provides such stunning imagery, as well as the support we've received from the Abu Dhabi Film Commission and our partners there across all three films. The people, crew, and resources in Abu Dhabi made an incredibly difficult undertaking feel comfortable and easy, and the attention to detail and care shown to our cast and crew was exceptional," said Herb Gains, EVP of Physical Production, Legendary Entertainment.

Dune: Part Three was supported by Creative Media Authority Abu Dhabi (CMA) and the Abu Dhabi Film Commission, with Image Nation Abu Dhabi serving as a production partner and Epic Films as the local production services provider. The production also benefited from Abu Dhabi's cashback rebate program and 206 highly skilled local crew including 12 stunt performers who were joined by 336 local contractors and drivers, underscoring the emirate's continued growth as a premier destination for large-scale international filmmaking. The 31 day shoot in Abu Dhabi, which included two days in Al Ain, also required the assistance of 38 individuals to support with on-camera crowd scenes whilst six young, talented interns supported in production roles off-camera.

"Working with some of the world's leading film creatives and being able to bring the authenticity of how a nation works harmoniously within a desert environment gave me great pride as an Emirati, and now to be able to see our beautiful local landscapes and talent on screen will build upon this pride as the world sees Arrakis on screens again," said Mohamed F Mostafa, Stunt Performer, Dune: Part Three.

"The enduring relationship between Legendary Entertainment and the Abu Dhabi Film Commission spans more than a decade and reflects a shared commitment to supporting world-class productions. Throughout that time, Abu Dhabi has proven to be a trusted partner, providing the expertise, infrastructure, and collaboration required to successfully execute productions on a global scale. The Dune trilogy is a testament to the strength of that relationship, and we are proud of what we have achieved together," said Sam Kozhaya, EVP of Operations and Corporate Development, Legendary Entertainment.

Directed by Denis Villeneuve and written by Villeneuve and Brian K. Vaughan, Dune: Part Three is based on the novels written by Frank Herbert and delivers the epic conclusion to Villeneuve's trilogy. The film stars Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, Jason Momoa, Florence Pugh, Rebecca Ferguson, Isaach De Bankolé, with Charlotte Rampling, with Anya Taylor-Joy, and Robert Pattinson, and Javier Bardem, and features newcomers Nakoa-Wolf Momoa and Ida Brooke.

Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures Present A Legendary Pictures Production, A Film By Denis Villeneuve, Dune: Part Three. The film opens only in theaters and IMAX® across North America on December 18, 2026, and internationally beginning December 16, 2026, and will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures and in China by Legendary East.

Supermicro Simplifies Edge AI Deployments with Validated Kubernetes Appliances with Red Hat and Everpure

Super Micro Computer, Inc. — Thu, 09 Jul 2026 10:20:49 +0900

SAN JOSE, Calif., July 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Super Micro Computer, Inc.(NASDAQ: SMCI), an AI, Enterprise, Storage, and 5G/Edge Total IT Solution Provider featuring Data Center Building Block Solutions® (DCBBS), today announced the launch of Kubernetes Edge AI appliances in collaboration with Red Hat and Everpure. Supermicro has validated a full-stack edge Kubernetes solution, powered by the industry's leading Kubernetes-driven hybrid cloud application platform, Red Hat OpenShift, and the first Kubernetes data management platform tailored for AI workloads from Portworx by Everpure. This turnkey appliance, complete with preloaded software and hardware, is made available to customers through Supermicro.

Simplify Edge AI Deployments with Validated Kubernetes Solutions

"AI inferencing at the edge requires more than just hardware—it demands a validated, scalable platform that customers can deploy with confidence," said Vik Malyala, chief business officer, Supermicro. "Together with Red Hat and Everpure, we are delivering a turnkey Kubernetes Edge AI Appliance that simplifies deployment, accelerates time-to-revenue, and enables customers to efficiently scale AI workloads across distributed edge environments."

For more details on the validated, full-stack edge Kubernetes solution with Red Hat and Everpure, click here.

By combining Red Hat OpenShift with Supermicro's edge computing infrastructure and the Portworx by Everpure data management platform for AI workloads, organizations can more easily deploy, manage, scale, and secure AI applications across distributed edge environments.

"As AI-driven applications continue to reshape how businesses operate at the edge, the need for a robust, consistent, and scalable platform is paramount. Red Hat OpenShift delivers that foundation, providing the common hybrid cloud application environment that simplifies the complexity of deploying, orchestrating, and managing AI workloads. In collaboration with Supermicro and Everpure, we are committed to empowering customers with a supported, integrated, and high-performance solution that accelerates their time-to-value for AI inferencing at the edge," said Kelly Switt, senior director, Intelligent Edge and Industrial Business Lead, Red Hat.

Portworx by Everpure provides the Kubernetes-native storage and data management layer for Supermicro's Edge AI Appliances. This enables enterprises to run AI inference, containers, and virtual machines at edge locations with the same enterprise-grade data services available in their core data centers. Unlike array-based storage solutions that require dedicated hardware at each site, Portworx offers software-defined, aggregated local storage on Supermicro's compact edge servers into a resilient, self-healing data platform that operates autonomously, even during network outages. The result is enterprise-grade high availability and data protection at every edge location, with consistent storage policies and a unified operational experience that extends seamlessly from edge to core to cloud.

"Enterprises deploying AI at the edge face a critical infrastructure gap, they need enterprise-grade storage and data protection, but they can't run traditional arrays in environments like retail stores or factory floors," said Greg Muscarella, general manager, Portworx by Everpure. "Together with Supermicro and Red Hat, we're delivering a validated, turnkey solution that combines Portworx services customers rely on like consistent management, built-in resilience, and the operational simplicity to scale to thousands of sites without the need for on-site IT expertise."

Supermicro is a leader in computing edge infrastructure, with one of the largest, most energy efficient, and most diverse portfolios of edge servers and devices, in a full range of form factors. This enables Supermicro to develop tailored solutions for each customer use case, with optimized initial acquisition cost, and total-cost-of-ownership (TCO).

Supermicro DCBBS delivers complete, modular AI infrastructure built from validated components and subsystems, enabling flexible deployment from individual servers and networking to full rack-scale and data center-level solutions, including software and services. Supermicro continues to lead the industry with its comprehensive portfolio of AI infrastructure solutions, enabling organizations worldwide to deploy scalable, efficient, and environmentally responsible AI data centers.

About Super Micro Computer, Inc.

Supermicro (NASDAQ: SMCI) is a global leader in Application-Optimized Total IT Solutions. Founded and operating in San Jose, California, Supermicro is committed to delivering first-to-market innovation for Enterprise, Cloud, AI, and 5G Telco/Edge IT Infrastructure.

Vermon launches Vermon Group, accelerating its growth and expanding its offerings

VERMON SA — Thu, 09 Jul 2026 10:19:44 +0900

Vermon Group opens a new chapter with the acquisition of Moduleus, the opening of TransducerWorks' new U.S. manufacturing facility, and the launch of a coordinated Group platform designed to move faster, deliver more, and stay close to customers.

TOURS, France, July 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Vermon Group, an international ultrasound technology company specializing in OEM solutions for the medical and industrial markets, today announced three strategic milestones that mark a new phase of growth. These include the acquisition of Moduleus, a specialist in OEM ultrasound subsystems; the opening of TransducerWorks' new 30,000 sq. ft. manufacturing facility in Pennsylvania; and the launch of Vermon Group as a unified platform bringing together the complementary expertise of its four entities.

https://www.multivu.com/vermon-group/9408751-en-vermon-launches-vermon-group-accelerating-its-growth-and-expanding-its-offerings

Together, these milestones reflect the Group's evolution from a recognized manufacturer of ultrasound probes and transducers to a broader OEM ultrasound solutions partner, capable of supporting customers across an expanding portion of the ultrasound value chain.

The acquisition of Moduleus is a key step in this strategy. By adding expertise in OEM ultrasound subsystems, Vermon Group extends its historical strengths in acoustic technologies to deliver more integrated solutions. Customers now benefit from a single partner able to support projects ranging from high-performance transducers to OEM subsystems, helping simplify development and accelerate innovation.

The new TransducerWorks facility further strengthens the Group's U.S. manufacturing footprint. Four times larger than the previous site, it features ISO 7 and ISO 8 cleanrooms, an integrated machine shop, while tripling production capacity. This investment enhances Vermon Group's ability to support customers from early-stage development through high-volume manufacturing while providing greater responsiveness and proximity to North American OEMs.

By bringing together Vermon, Moduleus, TransducerWorks, and Vermon NDT under one coordinated Group platform, customers gain access to complementary expertise in acoustics, electronics, engineering, and industrial manufacturing through a single organization. This integrated approach enables OEMs to accelerate development, reduce complexity, and bring next-generation ultrasound technologies to market faster.

With more than 600 employees worldwide, over 130 dedicated R&D experts, more than 40 years of ultrasound expertise, and manufacturing operations in Europe and the United States, Vermon Group continues to strengthen its position as a trusted OEM partner for the next generation of medical and industrial ultrasound technologies.

Cellebrite Expands Exclusive SkySafe Partnership to Deliver Immediate Drone Detection and Airspace Intelligence for Digital Investigations at Scale

Cellebrite — Thu, 09 Jul 2026 10:14:16 +0900

The partnership unifies what happens in the sky with what's stored on the drone in a single investigative workflow

TYSONS CORNER, Va. and PETAH TIKVA, Israel, July 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Cellebrite DI Ltd. (Nasdaq: CLBT), a global leader in AI-powered Digital Investigative and Intelligence solutions for the public and private sectors, today announced an expanded partnership with SkySafe, the leader in drone detection and airspace intelligence. The exclusive partnership combines advanced digital forensics with advanced drone detection, deep analysis and drone activity, equipping organizations and agencies with the intelligence needed to proactively detect, analyze and act on potential threats in real-time at scale.

As malicious drone use continues to rise, investigators face increasing challenges in connecting digital evidence with time-sensitive unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) operational data. By integrating SkySafe's drone detection and airspace intelligence with Cellebrite's platform, agencies can connect real-time and historical flight data of the UAV with mobile forensic evidence all in one place. The result is actionable intelligence that reveals hidden patterns, identifies illicit networks and accelerates investigations.

"This partnership bridges the critical and often life-saving divide between digital forensics and real-time intelligence," said Shiven Ramji, Cellebrite's President, Products and Technology. "By working closely with SkySafe, we can help empower organizations to protect their communities, safeguard infrastructure and respond to emerging threats with unprecedented speed and clarity."

"Effective drone investigations begin with trusted airspace intelligence," said Grant Jordan, founder and CEO of SkySafe. "Together with Cellebrite, we're helping agencies and organizations detect, analyze and act on drone activity using comprehensive forensic data that supports both immediate response and long-term investigations."

Following Cellebrite's acquisition of SCG Canada, Inc. in March 2026, this new agreement reflects an expanded relationship, which makes Cellebrite the exclusive digital forensics partner to SkySafe's advanced UAV capabilities. The move further cements Cellebrite's position as the recognized leader in digital forensics and intelligence, ensuring its customers have access to preeminent proprietary extraction and decryption capabilities – unlike anything else available today.

Under this partnership, Cellebrite and SkySafe will collaborate to expand the digital intelligence available to investigators by combining SkySafe's drone detection, airspace intelligence and forensic expertise with Cellebrite's industry-leading ecosystem of investigative solutions. The partnership is designed to help customers access richer drone-related intelligence and support more comprehensive investigations, while creating opportunities for future innovation across public safety, defense and enterprise use cases.

HR Path Secures Near-$1 Billion Transaction Led by Ardian to Accelerate International Growth

HR Path — Thu, 09 Jul 2026 10:11:36 +0900

PARIS, July 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- HR Path, a global leader in HR consulting, HRIS integration and HR outsourcing, opens a new growth chapter with a transaction of nearly $1 billion, led by Ardian, one of the world's leading private investment firms.

Founded in Paris (France) in 2001, HR Path supports companies in the transformation and performance of their HR function. The Group operates through a unique model covering the entire HR value chain through three complementary business lines: Advise, Implement and Outsource.

Over the past two years, HR Path has established itself among the most dynamic players in its sector, with growth of close to 70%. This momentum rests on both organic growth and a sustained external growth strategy: since its founding, the Group has completed 57 acquisitions, 22 of them in the last two years alone.

In a market shaped by the digitalization of organizations, the internationalization of talent and the emergence of new ways of working, HR Path intends to strengthen its position among the key players in HR transformation.

To this end, the Group has secured a new transaction led by Ardian, on the basis of a valuation of nearly $1 billion. These new resources will allow the Group to accelerate its external growth strategy and strengthen its presence in United States, Canada, Germany, the Nordic countries, Australia and the Middle East.

HR Path intends to accelerate the development of its three business lines to consolidate its position as a global reference player in HR transformation.

Within its Implement business, the Group aims to reinforce its status as the partner of choice for leading HR software vendors such as SAP, Oracle, Workday, Dayforce and UKG. Outsource is one of the Group's main growth drivers, driven by the growing global demand for Employer of Record (EOR) solutions, which respond to companies' growing need for international workforce mobility — a fast-expanding market where HR Path holds a particularly strong position.

About HR Path

HR Path is a global leader in Human Resources, specializing in supporting companies through their digital transformation. Through its three business lines — Advise, Implement and Outsource — HR Path enhances the HR efficiency of its clients. Founded in Paris in 2001, HR Path employs approximately 2,600 people worldwide. Present in 30 countries, the Group supports more than 3,000 clients.
