  • MIL-OSI: Award-Winning Producer Doug Grau to Spearhead Creation of American Rebel Productions, a New Content Arm of American Rebel Holdings, Inc.

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    NASHVILLE, TN, July 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — American Rebel Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: AREB) (“American Rebel” or the “Company”), the creator of American Rebel Beer (americanrebelbeer.com) and a leading designer and marketer of branded safes, personal security products, and patriotic apparel, today announced plans to expand its brand platform through the formation of a new wholly owned subsidiary, American Rebel Productions, LLC.

    As part of this strategic initiative, the Company has entered into a professional services agreement with Award-winning producer and music industry veteran Doug Grau, who will serve as a strategic advisor to CEO Andy Ross. Grau will assist in developing a business strategy for the new division, which will focus on content creation and brand storytelling aligned with the Company’s patriotic mission. Upon formal establishment of the subsidiary, Grau is expected to serve as its initial President.

    Doug Grau, a veteran music industry executive and original co-founder of American Rebel Holdings, Inc., has played a key role in the Company’s early brand development and creative direction. His longstanding collaboration with CEO Andy Ross helped shape the Company’s identity as “America’s Patriotic Brand.”

    From Song to Brand: The Origin of American Rebel

    Grau and Ross have completed three albums together and have begun recording a fourth studio album. Ross’s three released albums – You Ain’t Seen Crazy Yet (2011), Cold Dead Hand (2013), and Time to Fight (2016) – benefited from Grau’s 40+ years of music industry experience. The first completed track for Time to Fight was the single “American Rebel,” a song that would become far more than just a title.

    The message and energy behind “American Rebel” were immediately recognized as more than a song – it was a mission statement. That moment sparked the founding of American Rebel Holdings, Inc. in 2014, grounded in the belief that the song embodied the values, spirit, and lifestyle of a patriotic American brand. The company was built around that vision, transforming a powerful anthem into a multifaceted business rooted in patriotism and the unwavering belief in chasing the American dream.

    Grau and Ross recently completed a new video for Ross’s single “I Stand For You.” The video was filmed during Ross’s recent concert celebrating the 250th birthday of the United States Army. Watch the video by clicking here.

    Doug Grau’s Industry Legacy

    Grau brings over four decades of experience in entertainment and media. He spent 15 years at Warner Bros. Nashville (1983–1998), where he was instrumental in developing the careers of artists such as Travis Tritt, Little Texas, David Ball, Jeff Foxworthy, and Bill Engvall. He also produced the original Blue Collar Comedy Tour LIVE CD featuring Foxworthy, Engvall, Larry the Cable Guy, and Ron White. In 2002, Grau produced the video and audio recording of the Statler Bros. Farewell Concert, which aired nationally on PBS and earned an RIAA Gold DVD award. He later published Statler Bros: Random Memories in 2008, co-written by founding members Harold and Don Reid.

    In conjunction with this transition, Grau has agreed to officially step down from his current roles as President and Interim Principal Accounting Officer of American Rebel Holdings, Inc. As planned, Darin Fielding will assume the role of Principal Accounting Officer, and Corey Lambrecht, the Company’s current Chief Operating Officer, will take on the additional role of President. These leadership changes are designed to align the Company’s executive structure with its strategic growth initiatives and operational priorities.

    Expanding the Brand Through Content

    American Rebel Productions will be tasked with developing original content that amplifies the Company’s patriotic identity and connects with its growing customer base. CEO Andy Ross emphasized the importance of this next phase:

    “We’ve always believed in the power of storytelling to build loyalty around the American Rebel brand. This planned new venture will allow me to continue working directly with Doug to leverage his exceptional talent and decades of experience in content creation. Together, we’ll amplify our message, elevate our brand, and ensure that everything we produce resonates deeply with our customers and reinforces the patriotic values at the heart of American Rebel.”

    Strategic Growth and Diversification

    The formation of American Rebel Productions reflects the Company’s broader strategy to diversify its revenue streams and deepen customer engagement. By leveraging media and entertainment, American Rebel Holdings, Inc. aims to enhance brand visibility and support the growth of its core product lines, including American Rebel Light Beer, branded safes, and patriotic apparel. In addition, the Company will continue to pursue strategic licensing opportunities that align with its brand values and expand its reach into complementary markets.

  • MIL-OSI: GraniteShares Announces Weekly Distributions for its YieldBOOST ETFs: NVYY, TQQY, TSYY, XBTY, and YSPY

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    New York, July 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — GraniteShares today announced the weekly distributions for its GraniteShares YieldBOOST ETFs: NVYY, TQQY, TSYY, XBTY, and YSPY, as shown in the table below.

    Distributions are not guaranteed

    Standardized Performance and Fund details can be obtained by clicking the ETF Ticker in the table above or by visiting us at www.graniteshares.com.

    1The Distribution Rate shown is as of based of the NAV per share as of July 09, 2025, adjusted for corporate actions. the Distribution Rate is the annual rate an investor would receive if the most recent distribution remained the same going forward. The rate represents a single distribution from the fund and does not represent total return to the fund. The distribution rate is calculated by annualizing the most recent distribution and dividing it by the most recent NAV adjusted for corporate actions.

    2The 30-Day SEC Yield represents the net investment income (excluding option income) earned by the ETF over the 30-day period ended June 30, 2025. It is expressed as an annualized percentage rate based on the ETF’s share price at the end of that period. This metric does not reflect the total income generated by the fund, as it excludes option premium income central to the YieldBOOST strategy.

    3Each GraniteShares YieldBOOST ETF seeks to generate income by selling put options on the underlying asset. While this strategy can generate attractive premiums, it generally caps the upside potential of the ETF. If the reference asset appreciates significantly, the ETF will not fully participate in those gains. However, if the reference asset declines in value, the ETF may experience losses that are not offset by the income received. Investors may be exposed to downside risk while forgoing upside participation.

    4ROC or Return of Capital indicates how much the distribution reflects an investor’s initial investment. The figures shown for each Fund in the table above are estimates based on the latest 19a1 forms and may later be determined to be taxable net investment income, short-term gains, long-term gains (to the extent permitted by law), or return of capital. Actual amounts and sources for tax reporting will depend upon the Fund’s investment activities during the remainder of the fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. Your broker will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year to tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.

    5Ex-Date: The first day an ETF trades without the right to receive the upcoming distribution 

    6Record Date: The cut-off date set by the company to determine which ETF holders are eligible to receive the distribution

    7Payment Date: Date on which the distribution is paid to eligible ETF holders.

    Fund shareholders are not entitled to any distribution paid by the Underlying ETFs.

    GraniteShares Advisors LLC has contractually agreed to waive its fees and/or pay for operating expenses of the Fund to ensure that total annual fund operating expenses (exclusive of any (i) interest, (ii) brokerage fees and commission, (iii) acquired fund fees and expenses, (iv) fees and expenses associated with instruments in other collective investment vehicles or derivative instruments (including for example options and swap fees and expenses), (v) interest and dividend expense on short sales, (vi) taxes, (vii) other fees related to underlying investments (such as option fees and expenses or swap fees and expenses), (viii) expenses incurred in connection with any merger or reorganization or (ix) extraordinary expenses such as litigation) will not exceed 1.15%. This agreement is effective until December 31, 2025, and it may be terminated before that date only by the Trust’s Board of Trustees. GraniteShares Advisors LLC may request recoupment of previously waived fees and paid expenses from the Fund for three years from the date such fees and expenses were waived or paid, if such reimbursement will not cause the Fund’s total expense ratio to exceed the expense limitation in place at the time of the waiver and/or expense payment and the expense limitation in place at the time of the recoupment.

    Fund is newly launched and has risks associated with its limited operating history.

    The performance data quoted above represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost and current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted above. The distribution may include a combination of ordinary dividends, capital gain, and return of investor capital, which may decrease a fund’s NAV and trading price over time. As a result, an investor may suffer significant losses to their investment. Performance current to the most recent month-end can be obtained by calling (844) 476 8747.

    Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. For a Prospectus or summary prospectus with this and other information about the Funds, please call (844) 476 8747 or. Read the prospectus or summary prospectus carefully before investing.

    The Distribution Rate and 30-Day SEC Yield is not indicative of future distributions, if any, on the ETFs. In particular, future distributions on any ETF may differ significantly from its Distribution Rate or 30-Day SEC Yield. You are not guaranteed a distribution under the ETFs. Distributions for the ETFs (if any) are variable and may vary significantly from month to month and may be zero. Accordingly, the Distribution Rate and 30-Day SEC Yield will change over time, and such change may be significant. The distribution may include a combination of ordinary dividends, capital gain, and return of investor capital, which may decrease a fund’s NAV and trading price over time. As a result, an investor may suffer significant losses to their investment. These distribution rates caused by unusually favorable market conditions may not be sustainable. Such conditions may not continue to exist and there should be no expectation that this performance may be repeated in the future. Additional fund risks can be found below.

    An investment in the Fund involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. The Fund is non-diversified and includes risks associated with the Fund concentrating its investments in a particular industry, sector, or geographic region which can result in increased volatility. The use of derivatives such as option contracts and swaps are subject to market risks that may cause their price to include Risk of the Underlying ETF, Derivatives Risk, Affiliated Fund Risk, Put Writing Strategy Risk, Option Market Liquidity Risk, Counterparty Risk, Distribution Risk, & NAV Erosion Risk Due to Distribution. These and other risks can be found in the prospectus.

    There is no guarantee that the Fund’s investment strategy will be properly implemented, and an investor may lose some or all of its investment.

    An Investment in the Fund is not an investment in the Underlying ETFs

    – The Fund’s strategy will cap its potential gain if the Underlying ETFs share increases in value.
    – The Fund’s strategy is subject to all potential losses if the Underlying ETFs share decline, which may not be offset by the income received by the Fund,
    – The Fund does not invest directly in the Underlying ETFs,
    – Fund shareholders are not entitled to any distribution paid by Underlying ETFs.

    Shares are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the ETF. There can be no guarantee that an active trading market for ETF shares will develop or be maintained, or that their listing will continue or remain unchanged. Buying or selling ETF shares on an exchange may require the payment of brokerage commissions and frequent trading may incur brokerage costs that detract significantly from the returns.

    This information is not an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the shares of any Funds to any person in any jurisdiction in which an offer, solicitation, purchase or sale would be unlawful under the securities laws of such jurisdiction. Please consult your tax advisor about the tax consequences of an investment in Fund shares, including the possible application of foreign, state, and local tax laws. You could lose money by investing in the ETFs. There can be no assurance that the investment objective of the Funds will be achieved. None of the Funds should be relied upon as a complete investment program.

  • MIL-OSI: 180 Degree Capital Corp. Notes Business and Merger-Related Updates Including:

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    • PRELIMINARY NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE AS OF JUNE 30, 2025, OF $4.80
    • THE FILING OF AN UPDATED PRELIMINARY JOINT PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS FOR PROPOSED BUSINESS COMBINATION WITH MOUNT LOGAN CAPITAL INC.
    • PLAN TO SCHEDULE SHAREHOLDER CALL DURING WEEK OF JULY 14, 2025.

    MONTCLAIR, N.J., July 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — 180 Degree Capital Corp. (NASDAQ:TURN) (“180 Degree Capital”) today announced its preliminary net asset value (“NAV”) per share as of June 30, 2025, of $4.80, which is an increase of approximately 8.6% from the prior quarter, and 3.4% year-to-date.

    180 Degree Capital also noted the filing of an amended preliminary joint proxy statement/prospectus on Schedule 14A with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on Wednesday, July 9, 2025, regarding its proposed merger with Mount Logan Capital Inc. (“Mount Logan”) in an all-stock transaction (the “Business Combination”). As noted in its original press release issued on January 17, 2025, the surviving entity is expected to be a Delaware corporation operating as Mount Logan Capital Inc. (“New Mount Logan”) listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “MLCI”. In connection with the Business Combination, 180 Degree Capital shareholders will receive proportionate ownership of New Mount Logan determined by reference to 180 Degree Capital’s net asset value at closing relative to a valuation of Mount Logan of approximately $67.4 million at signing, subject to certain pre-closing adjustments.

    In addition, Kevin Rendino and Daniel Wolfe plan to host a shareholder call during the week of July 14, 2025, to discuss the preliminary results from Q2 2025, and will be joined by Ted Goldthorpe, Chief Executive Officer of Mount Logan, to discuss the proposed Business Combination. The date and time of this call will be announced in a subsequent release as we gain greater clarity regarding the timing of our registration statement relating to the Business Combination being declared effective by the SEC.

    “We are proud of our performance during Q2 2025, that led to a material increase in NAV during the quarter and positive year-to-date performance,” commented Kevin M. Rendino, Chief Executive Officer of 180 Degree Capital. “As we mentioned in our press release on June 27, 2025, our focus is on minimizing expenses and maximizing NAV heading into our proposed Business Combination. Our year-to-date net total return (increase in net asset value per share) of $0.16, or +3.4% compares favorably to the +1.1% total return of the Russell Microcap Index. We note that this increase in NAV and outperformance includes a material portion of the ultimate total expenses of the Business Combination that will occur. I also note that our NAV continues to be negatively impacted by legal expenses incurred as a result of efforts by certain shareholders to interfere our proposed Business Combination. Our gross total return of our public investments through the first six months of 2025 of approximately +16.0% compares very favorably to the -1.1% total return of the Russell Microcap Index. Q3 2025 has started similarly well, with continued strong performance of our investment portfolio leading to a NAV as of July 8, 2025, that is approaching $5.00 per share.”

    “As constructive activists, we spend a significant amount of time with our investee management teams and boards, as well as understanding the fundamentals of their businesses,” added Daniel B. Wolfe, President of 180 Degree Capital. “Through this work, we believed, and continue to believe, that there are material value creation opportunities for our holdings at least through the anticipated close of the Business Combination, subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals. While future returns may be different than those to date, we believe our performance year-to-date sets our shareholders up well to maximize NAV heading into the merger, and then the potential to build significant future value off that foundation as an operating company combined with Mount Logan.”

    Mr. Rendino concluded, “We believe we are close to completing the SEC review process, which will allow 180 Degree Capital to commence its efforts to seek shareholder approval for the Business Combination. We believe this proposed Business Combination is a unique opportunity for future value creation for all of 180 Degree Capital’s shareholders. In the meantime, we appreciate the questions, comments and continued strong support from our existing and new shareholders who share in our excitement for this next chapter.”

    About 180 Degree Capital Corp.

    180 Degree Capital Corp. is a publicly traded registered closed-end fund focused on investing in and providing value-added assistance through constructive activism to what we believe are substantially undervalued small, publicly traded companies that have potential for significant turnarounds. Our goal is that the result of our constructive activism leads to a reversal in direction for the share price of these investee companies, i.e., a 180-degree turn.

    Holding companies owned and controlled by Jonathan Goodman, David Goodman, Mark Goodman and Daniel Goodman (the Shareholders) equally own the equity shares of Jodamada. The Shareholders have entered into a unanimous shareholders agreement under which certain decisions are to be made unanimously by the directors of Jodamada, including with respect to the Class A Subordinate Voting Shares (the Subordinate Voting Shares) and the Multiple Voting Shares of Dundee held directly and indirectly by Jodamada (other than certain shares of Dundee held by Jodamada on behalf of two of the Shareholders, David and Mark, through tracking shares of Jodamada held by them). The tracking shares represent the proportionate agreed entitlement of the holders of the tracking shares to a certain number of Dundee shares held by Jodamada, and through those tracking shares each holder of such shares can request his proportionate number of Dundee shares be sold and the proceeds transferred to him. The other Shareholders must grant their approval for such a request, provided that the sale is to be done in accordance with the unanimous shareholders agreement and applicable securities rules. The unanimous shareholders agreement may only be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified by written agreement of all of the shareholders of the corporation.

    The trustees of the Trust are Jonathan Goodman, David Goodman, Mark Goodman and Daniel Goodman (the Trustees). All decisions on behalf of the Trust must be made by at least three of the four Trustees except in the event of a sale to a Trustee at which time the decision must be unanimous.

    Immediately prior to the Reorganization, Jodamada held an aggregate of 300,006 Subordinate Voting Shares and 2,439,204 Multiple Voting Shares, and the Trust held an aggregate of 2,595,462 Subordinate Voting Shares and 647,379 Multiple Voting Shares.

    Following the Reorganization, the Trust no longer holds any Multiple Voting Shares and holds an aggregate of 2,595,462 Subordinate Voting Shares, which represent 3.01% of the outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares and a 0.65% voting interest in the total votes by the outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares taken together.

    Following the Reorganization, Jodamada and the Trust together hold an aggregate of 2,895,468 Subordinate Voting Shares and 3,086,583 Multiple Voting Shares of Dundee, which represent 3.36% of the outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares and 99.10% of the outstanding Multiple Voting Shares, and collectively a 78.33% voting interest in the total votes represented by the outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares taken together.

    Jonathan Goodman owns, directly or indirectly an aggregate of 6,171,198 Subordinate Voting Shares, 720,000 stock options convertible into Subordinate Voting Shares, 407,308 Restricted Share Awards and 831,944 Deferred Share Units representing less than 2% of the voting interest in the total votes represented by the outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares. David Goodman owns, directly or indirectly (including through his tracking shares in Jodamada) an aggregate of 2,252,225 Subordinate Voting Shares representing less than 2% of the voting interest in the total votes represented by the outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares taken together.

    Dundee’s head office is located at 80 Richmond Street West, Suite 2000, Toronto, Ontario M5H 2A4. The Trust’s and Jodamada’s head office is located at 45 St. Clair Ave. W., Suite 100, Toronto, Ontario, M4V 1K9.

  • MIL-OSI: Enphase Energy Expands IQ EV Charger 2 in Europe with New Markets, Certifications, and Smart Meter Integration

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    FREMONT, Calif., July 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Enphase Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: ENPH), a global energy technology company and the world’s leading supplier of microinverter-based solar and battery systems, today announced that production shipments of its newest electric vehicle (EV) charger, the IQ® EV Charger 2, have expanded across Europe to now include Greece, Romania, Ireland, and Poland. The IQ EV Charger 2 is a smart charger designed to work seamlessly with Enphase solar and battery systems or as a powerful standalone charger. Additionally, in France, the IQ EV Charger 2 has received one of the country’s highest quality standards, the E.V. READY certification, and can now integrate with the “Linky” meter to enable dynamic load balancing for standalone charger installations.

    The Enphase IQ EV Charger 2 is designed to deliver high performance, intelligent energy management, and exceptional flexibility for homeowners and fleets. It supports both single-phase and three-phase wiring with configurable power up to 32 A per phase and features automatic phase switching to enable charging with as little as 1.38 kW of solar production. Smart features include AI-powered optimization using real-time rates and forecasts, dynamic load balancing, and a certified MID energy meter for accurate tracking. The charger is also future-ready, with built-in hardware and software to support AC bidirectional charging for potential vehicle-to-home (V2H) and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) applications.

    The IQ EV Charger 2 is available in socketed and tethered variants, featuring a rugged Type-2 connector that is fully compatible with the majority of EVs sold in Europe. Installation is fast and efficient, featuring a 7.5-meter cable for added flexibility and a streamlined setup process that minimizes labor time and installation costs. It is housed in an IP55-rated enclosure, making it weatherproof and safe for indoor and outdoor installations. All IQ EV Charger 2 products activated in Greece, Romania, Ireland, and Poland are backed by an industry-leading five-year warranty and 24/7 customer support from Enphase – ensuring exceptional peace of mind.

    “The Enphase IQ EV Charger 2 uses solar power to help homeowners reduce costs and grid reliance,” said Tomasz Noga, owner of iPowerInstall, an installer of Enphase products in Poland. “It integrates seamlessly with the rest of the Enphase Energy System.”

    The IQ EV Charger 2 now also integrates with the Linky meter, enabling dynamic load balancing for standalone EV charger installations.

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    ESCONDIDO, Calif., July 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — One Stop Systems, Inc. (OSS or the Company) (Nasdaq: OSS), a leader in rugged Enterprise Class compute for artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) and sensor processing at the edge, today announced a new $2 million production contract from a breakthrough medical imaging OEM advancing non-invasive breast cancer screening. OSS expects the total program value of at least $25 million over the next five years.

    Under the terms of the contract, OSS will provide 65 next-generation liquid-cooled 3U-SDS that have become standard on all the OEM’s Breast Scanning devices. OSS expects to recognize revenue from this contract over the next six to twelve months. This order represents a transition from successful pilot to volume production, following an initial $500,000 development-phase order in March 2025.

    “We are excited to deepen our relationship with this leading medical OEM customer and support their expanding production,” stated OSS President and CEO, Mike Knowles. “Their advanced imaging system relies on machine learning algorithms running in real-time.

  • MIL-OSI: GoldenMining Announces Global Expansion Milestone Amid U.S. Crypto Policy Progress

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    LONDON, UK, July 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — GoldenMining, a UK-based provider of cloud-based cryptocurrency mining infrastructure, has announced a significant milestone in its international expansion strategy. The update comes in light of recent regulatory developments in the United States, which many in the industry view as a positive step toward greater clarity for digital asset businesses.

    The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), under Chairman Paul Atkins, has recently advanced discussions around two cryptocurrency-focused bills—the “GENIUS Act” and the “CLARITY Act.” These proposed frameworks aim to establish stablecoin protections and potentially exclude Ethereum (ETH) from securities classification, thereby reducing legal uncertainty for crypto-related operations.

    GoldenMining, which has operated across multiple markets for years, has responded to this policy momentum by increasing investment in its global infrastructure. The company reports that its total number of active cloud mining units has surpassed one million—a first in its operational history—and that it will be launching additional data centers in Asia and Latin America in Q3 2025.

    “These policy signals offer a more stable environment for infrastructure providers like us,” said a spokesperson for GoldenMining. “We see this as an opportune time to accelerate the rollout of our decentralized mining services and bring more global users into the crypto ecosystem—safely and sustainably.”

    GoldenMining’s systems are built to support a multi-currency mining environment, and the company has emphasized its commitment to high-speed settlement protocols, infrastructure transparency, and security-first architecture. Its operational and compliance teams continue to monitor global regulatory shifts as the digital asset industry enters a new chapter of standardization.

  • MIL-OSI: Scality Named Storage Magazine Enterprise Backup Software Vendor and Storage Product of the Year, 2025

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    SAN FRANCISCO, July 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Scality, a global leader in cyber-resilient storage software for the AI era, announced today that it captured two coveted trophies at the 2025 Storage Awards, also known as “The Storries,” taking home Enterprise Backup Software Vendor of the Year and Storage Product of the Year for ARTESCA 3.0, Scality’s simple object storage for immutable ransomware-proof backups. The annual awards program, run by Storage Magazine and decided by a combination of expert judges and reader votes, recognizes technology providers that are redefining data protection and cyber resilience.

    “These dual awards underscore the trust customers and partners place in Scality to safeguard mission-critical data at enterprise scale,” said Paul Speciale, Chief Marketing Officer, Scality. “ARTESCA CORE5 architecture raised the bar from immutability to true end-to-end cyber resilience, while our continued innovation — such as the new ARTESCA+ Veeam unified software appliance — helps organizations of every size defeat ransomware, accelerate AI initiatives, and simplify hybrid-cloud backup. We are honored that the industry has recognized this leadership.”

    “The Storage Awards 2025 is the UK annual event that celebrates the very best in our industry – from innovations in data management and cyber resiliency to customer excellence in the provision of storage solutions. What makes these accolades particularly meaningful is that the majority are voted for by the wider public – this year we received over 21,500 votes, making the Storries XXII a true reflection of industry trust and sentiment,” commented Sharon Munday, Editor of Storage Magazine. “Winners like Scality – scooping the Enterprise Backup Software Award – have long been synonymous with technical innovation, a fact that resonates with Storage Magazine readers and confirmed by the consistent volume of votes they receive each year.”

    Why Scality Stood Out

    Scality earned the “Storries” Enterprise Backup Software Vendor of the Year award not only for its technology, but for its role as a trusted partner to enterprises and service providers around the world. Known for close collaboration with backup ecosystem leaders like Veeam, Scality helps organizations design and deploy future-ready solutions that meet real-world data protection needs. Its commitment to innovation, customer success, and partner enablement continues to set the company apart as a leader in the evolving backup landscape.

    Scality ARTESCA 3.0 also impressed judges with its CORE5 cyber resilient architecture, delivering end-to-end ransomware protection across five critical layers, earning it a “Storries” Storage Product of the Year award. The latest release also introduced an all-flash option, a pay-as-you-go model for Veeam® Cloud Service Providers, and the ARTESCA+ Veeam unified appliance that simplifies deployment. These innovations make ARTESCA a powerful, easy-to-use platform for modern backup and hybrid cloud solutions.

  • MIL-OSI: NinjaTech launches Super Agent: a breakthrough professional AI partner that saves customers thousands of dollars by completing multi-day tasks in minutes

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    LOS ALTOS, Calif., July 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NinjaTech AI, a Silicon Valley-based agentic AI company, today announced:

    • Super Agent: A revolutionary all-in-one General Purpose AI Agent with a dedicated virtual machine that plans, iterates, and executes entire workflows from start to finish in minutes.
    • Cerebras Partnership: Ninjatech AI partners with the world’s fastest inference platform, Cerebras, to power the Super Agent’s custom model. This strategic collaboration utilizes Cerebras’ wafer-scale architecture, allowing users to implement complex tasks such as coding and testing an entire application 3-5x faster than GPU-based solutions.

    “The age of specialized, limited AI agents is over. The era of an all-in-one General Purpose AI Agent that executes complex tasks has begun,” said Babak Pahlavan, CEO of NinjaTech AI and a serial investor and entrepreneur who previously founded and sold the development company Clever Sense to Google. “This isn’t just another AI tool—it’s the foundation for the next generation of autonomous AI agents and digital robots for revolutionizing personal and business productivity.”

    From Inspiration to Execution: The AI Knowledge Worker Revolution
    Super Agent transforms how people interact with AI by functioning as a true professional AI partner rather than just an assistant. What sets Super Agent apart is its ability to handle entire workflows from start to finish. Unlike conventional AI tools limited by token limits or requiring constant hand-holding, Super Agent operates on its own dedicated computer in the same way humans do—running extensive data analysis, coding and validating full applications, conducting comprehensive research, building websites, and delivering high-quality results in the user’s preferred format.

    Cerebras Partnership: Powering the Next Generation of AI Agents
    Central to Super Agent’s capabilities is NinjaTech AI’s strategic partnership with Cerebras Systems, pioneers in fast inference. The partnership brings together NinjaTech’s proprietary AI models with Cerebras’s wafer-scale architecture to deliver unprecedented speed.

    “Our partnership with NinjaTech AI demonstrates the transformative potential of Cerebras’s Wafer-Scale technology in supporting Advanced Agentic AI that’s not just smarter, but dramatically faster,” said Andrew Feldman, CEO and Co-founder of Cerebras Systems. “Advanced AI agents like Ninja’s Super Agent generate massive amounts of tokens for each task and by hosting their custom models on our chips, we’re enabling their autonomous agents to deliver results that would normally take 10-20 minutes in 1-2 minutes; which makes the experience truly magical!”

    This partnership expands NinjaTech AI’s infrastructure beyond their existing AWS relationship, creating a powerful multi-platform approach that optimizes for both performance and scalability.

    Dedicated Virtual Machines: Privacy and Performance for Each User
    Each user gets their own isolated VM, ensuring complete data privacy and security. This enables Super Agent to download tools, write and execute code, create applications, analyze data, and build websites or dashboards autonomously—all within a secure environment that’s not shared with other users. Coming soon, Super Agent will also include a virtual smartphone capability, allowing it to interact with mobile applications on the user’s behalf.

    Adaptive Intelligence: Speed or Quality When You Need It
    In the coming weeks, Super Agent will introduce a feature that allows users to dynamically switch between two operational modes:

    • Fast Mode: Leveraging our strategic Cerebras partnership, this mode delivers swift, high-caliber responses and accelerated task completion for everyday requests and time-sensitive needs.
    • High-Quality Mode: Purpose-built for complex challenges requiring precision and depth, this mode harnesses advanced processing capabilities to produce premium-grade outputs but with extended processing times.

    “Different tasks demand different approaches,” explained Pahlavan. “By offering both fast and high-quality modes, we’re giving users the flexibility to choose the right option for each specific task.”

    Transforming Productivity Across Industries
    Super Agent is designed to handle complex workflows that would typically take humans hours, days, or even weeks to complete. The agent also integrates with real-time data sources—from financial market feeds to social media analytics and open-source databases—providing quick access to the latest information.

    Super Agent Now Available to the General Public
    Super Agent is available starting July 9, 2025, to the general public. Access to Super Agent for $100/month, giving members a simple, cost-effective alternative to the unpredictable token usage and performance limits of other AI solutions. For more information about Super Agent, visit https://www.ninjatech.ai/product/super-ninja.

  • MIL-OSI Economics: Basel Committee shares report on interconnections between banks and non-bank financial intermediaries

    Source: Bank for International Settlements

    • The report reflects the findings of an analysis conducted as part of the Committee’s forward-looking work to identify and analyse risks and vulnerabilities to the banking system.
    • The report identifies the services banks and non-bank financial intermediaries (NBFIs) provide to each other and the trends shaping the relationship between them.
    • The Committee will continue to monitor and investigate the interconnections between banks and NBFIs with a particular focus on synthetic risk transfers.

    The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision has today published a horizon-scanning report on the interconnections between banks and non-bank financial intermediaries (NBFIs). The NBFI sector has grown rapidly in recent years and includes a broad range of entities including investment funds, insurance companies, pension funds and other types of financial intermediaries.

    Banks and NBFIs are linked by a wide range of activities and services and the sectors are mutually dependent. Banks provide leverage, clearing, market-making and underwriting services to NBFIs, trade derivatives with NBFIs and, in some cases, own NBFIs. These activities expose banks to a wide variety of risks. NBFIs are also exposed to banks through short-term cash placements, investment in securities issued by banks and trading activities. The nature of their linkages is shaped by market conditions and by regulatory reforms over the last several years.

    To explore the risks associated with banks’ interconnections with NBFIs, the report builds on several case studies to discuss stylised scenarios that illustrate possible impacts of NBFI failure on banks and financial stability. The report also discusses the importance of granular, timely and high-frequency data in understanding and monitoring linkages between banks and NBFIs.

    The Committee will continue to monitor and investigate the interconnections between banks and NBFIs with a particular focus on synthetic risk transfers (SRTs). The investigation will seek to better assess the benefits and risks posed by SRTs.

  • MIL-OSI Economics: RBI imposes monetary penalty on Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Urban Co-operative Bank Limited, Nagpur, Maharashtra

    Source: Reserve Bank of India

    The Reserve Bank of India (RBl) has, by an order dated July 08, 2025, imposed a monetary penalty of ₹1.50 lakh (Rupees One Lakh Fifty Thousand only) on Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Urban Co-operative Bank Limited, Nagpur, Maharashtra (the bank) for non-compliance with certain directions issued by RBI on ‘Loans and advances to directors, relatives and firms/ concerns in which they are interested-UCBs’ and specific directions issued by RBI under Supervisory Action Framework (SAF). This penalty has been imposed in exercise of powers conferred on RBI under the provisions of Section 47A(1)(c) read with Sections 46(4)(i) and 56 of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949.

    The statutory inspection of the bank was conducted by the RBI with reference to its financial position as on March 31, 2024. Based on supervisory findings of non-compliance with RBI directions and related correspondence in that regard, a notice was issued to the bank advising it to show cause as to why penalty should not be imposed on it for its failure to comply with the said directions. After considering the bank’s reply to the notice, oral submissions made during the personal hearing and additional submissions made by it, RBI found, inter alia, that the following charges against the bank were sustained, warranting imposition of monetary penalty:

    The bank had:

    1. sanctioned a director related loan; and

    2. not reduced single borrower exposure limit, for fresh loans and advances, by 50% of the applicable regulatory limit in non-adherence to the directions under SAF.

    This action is based on deficiencies in regulatory compliance and is not intended to pronounce upon the validity of any transaction or agreement entered into by the bank with its customers. Further, imposition of this monetary penalty is without prejudice to any other action that may be initiated by RBI against the bank.

  • India’s quick commerce market to triple to Rs 2 lakh crore by FY28: Report

    Source: Government of India

    Source: Government of India (4)

    The Indian quick commerce (Q-commerce) market’s gross order value is poised for exponential growth, nearly tripling from an estimated Rs 64,000 crore in FY25 to around Rs 2 lakh crore by FY28, according to a report on Thursday.

    India’s Q-commerce market is estimated to have reached around Rs 64,000 crore in FY25, growing at a staggering CAGR of 142 per cent during FY22-FY25, driven by evolving consumer preferences, hyperlocal infrastructure, and a lower base, according to the report by CareEdge Advisory, a subsidiary of CareEdge Ratings.

    “While growth remains strong, the focus is shifting from rapid expansion to reviving profitability and operational efficiency. Going forward, deeper penetration in Tier 2 and 3 cities, and tech-led innovations will likely define the next phase of India’s Q-commerce landscape,” said Tanvi Shah, Senior Director and Head, CareEdge Advisory and Research.

    The Q-commerce market revenue generated through fees has grown at a significantly faster pace than the GOV.

    The fee-based revenue, which stood at Rs 450 crore in FY22, has reached an estimated Rs 10,500 crore in FY25 and is further projected to reach Rs 34,500 crore by FY28, representing a significant CAGR of 26-27 per cent from FY25 to FY28.

    This sharp increase is due to increased platform fees by major players, resulting in higher revenue realisation and a substantial increase in overall GOV, the report added.

    Q-commerce industry is still just around 1 per cent of India’s massive grocery market, but that’s exactly what makes it exciting.

    “As more consumers embrace the speed and convenience it offers, Q-commerce is set to grow rapidly, even if the broader grocery market growth remains flat,” said Amir Shaikh, Assistant Director, CareEdge Advisory and Research.

    This digital backbone has enabled the rapid adoption of e-commerce and Q-commerce platforms. India had over 270 million online shoppers in 2024, making it the second-largest e-retail user base globally.

    The e-commerce market grew 23.8 per cent YoY in 2024 and is expected to maintain a CAGR of 21.5 per cent through 2030.

    India’s Q-commerce surge is strongly driven by rising digital adoption and expanding consumer spending power.

    As of early 2025, the country had over 1.12 billion mobile connections, with 806 million internet users, representing a 6.5 per cent YoY increase, and is projected to exceed 900 million users by year-end.

  • Global end-user spending on GenAI models to reach $14.2 billion in 2025

    Source: Government of India

    Source: Government of India (4)

    A Gartner report said on Thursday that worldwide end-user spending on generative AI (GenAI) models is projected to reach $14.2 billion in 2025.

    End-user spending on specialised GenAI models, which include domain-specific language models (DSLMs), is estimated to total $1.1 billion this year.

    Specialised GenAI models are trained or fine-tuned on industry or business process-specific data.

    Gartner predicts that by 2027, more than half of the GenAI models used by enterprises will be domain-specific (that is, specific to an industry or business function), up from 1 per cent in 2024.

    “Foundation GenAI models (including LLMs) are trained on vast amounts of data and used for many different tasks. They are the first models supporting GenAI and will continue to represent the largest area of spending by organizations in the coming years,” said Arunasree Cheparthi, Senior Principal Research Analyst at Gartner.

    However, organisations are also turning to more domain-specific or vertical GenAI models because they offer improved performance, cost, reliability and relevance in targeted enterprise use cases over foundation models, she mentioned.

    An earlier Gartner report had said that global generative AI spending is expected to reach $644 billion in 2025, a surge of 76.4 per cent from 2024. GenAI spending in 2025 will be driven largely by the integration of AI capabilities into hardware, such as servers, smartphones and PCs, with 80 per cent of GenAI spending going towards hardware.

    GenAI spending is poised for significant growth across all core markets and submarkets in 2025. GenAI will have a transformative impact across all aspects of IT spending markets, suggesting a future where AI technologies become increasingly integral to business operations and consumer products, the report had mentioned.

    Foundational model providers are investing billions annually to enhance GenAI models’ size, performance, and reliability. This paradox will persist through 2025 and 2026.

    CAIRO, July 10 — Chinese Premier Li Qiang said here on Thursday that China is willing to strengthen Belt and Road cooperation with Egypt in such areas as economy, trade, finance, manufacturing, new energy, science and technology, and cultural and people-to-people exchanges.

    During his meeting with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, Li also said that China is willing to encourage more capable Chinese enterprises to invest in Egypt.

    Li conveyed to Sisi cordial greetings from Chinese President Xi Jinping, saying that China-Egypt relations have flourished in recent years under the strategic guidance of the two heads of state.

    The Chinese side, Li said, is ready to work with Egypt to take the 70th anniversary of diplomatic ties between the two countries next year as an opportunity to carry forward the traditional friendship, consolidate political mutual trust, and continue to firmly support each other on issues concerning each other’s core interests.

    China is also willing to join Egypt to continue to enrich the China-Egypt comprehensive strategic partnership, push for more achievements in cooperation in various fields between the two nations, and keep moving forward to the goal of building a China-Egypt community with a shared future in the new era.

    The international landscape is marked by mounting turbulence and escalating disorder, with prolonged and unresolved conflicts particularly afflicting the West Asian and North African regions, Li said.

    China stands ready to maintain close communication with Egypt and promote an early ceasefire in Gaza, Li said.

    The Chinese side is also ready to join Egypt in alleviating the humanitarian crisis, preventing the spillover and escalation of the conflict, and making unremitting efforts for a comprehensive, just and lasting settlement of the Palestinian issue, said the Chinese premier.

    He said China is willing to work with Egypt to enhance communication and coordination within multilateral platforms including the United Nations, BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, and practice true multilateralism.

    Li added that China will work with Egypt to promote an equal and orderly multipolar world and a universally beneficial and inclusive economic globalization, and push for the steady and long-term development of China-Arab and China-Africa cooperation.
