  • MIL-OSI: YBUOJ CEO Berton Hosea Discusses Strategic Blueprint to Drive Global Digital Asset Market Development

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo., May 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Recently, Berton Hosea, founder and CEO of YBUOJ, unveiled the globalization strategy of the company, emphasizing that “technology innovation and ecosystem collaboration will serve as the dual core drivers to build critical infrastructure for the digital economy era.”

    According to information provided by YBUOJ, its globalization strategy not only involves expanding business operations in North America, Europe, and Asia but also focuses on building an integrated, cross-border, dynamic, and compliant operational model through collaboration with financial regulatory agencies worldwide.

    Berton Hosea, a seasoned leader with a profound industry background, brings over 25 years of experience in managing high-tech enterprises. In complex market environments, he has driven sustained corporate growth with exceptional strategic vision and execution capabilities. With extensive expertise in international market expansion, product innovation, and corporate strategic planning, Hosea has demonstrated extraordinary leadership in navigating global competition.

    Hosea highlighted that YBUOJ has established a compliance engine capable of adapting to multi-national regulations, integrating AI to predict future regulatory trends and proactively mitigate potential risks. As part of its global expansion strategy, YBUOJ also prioritizes optimizing user experience. The platform currently supports multi-language interfaces and dynamically identifies user time zones and language preferences to deliver personalized interface customization and market-specific content.

    Throughout the interview, Hosea repeatedly emphasized the concept of “long-termism”. He stated, “YBUOJ is not a short-term player in the fast-paced crypto bull market. We are building a sustainable, secure, intelligent, compliant, and globally applicable core trading architecture.”

    Looking ahead, YBUOJ is accelerating its deep strategic expansion in the global digital finance sector. The platform ambitions extend beyond merely constructing a trading system; it aims to comprehensively advance four key engines—technology-driven innovation, compliance collaboration, ecosystem co-construction, and environmentally sustainable development. By doing so, YBUOJ seeks to redefine the operational logic and value framework of the global crypto market, propelling the entire industry into a new stage of development.

  • MIL-OSI: YBUOJ Launches Dynamic Cross-Border Compliance Engine to Ensure Comprehensive Transaction Compliance

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo., May 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Recently, YBUOJ Exchange officially announced the full launch of its independently developed dynamic cross-border compliance engine system. This system can automatically adjust the platform compliance parameters based on real-time changes in laws and regulations where users are located, ensuring that all trading operations are conducted within the permissible regulatory framework.

    CEO Berton Hosea stated at the launch, “This is not just a technical release but a strategic deployment in deep response to global cryptocurrency industry regulatory trends.”

    In the current environment where regulations are increasingly stringent, traditional methods relying on legal advisors and manual reviews are insufficient to support fast and complex cross-border trading activities. The YBUOJ concept of “compliance automation” clearly offers a more pragmatic and sustainable path for the entire industry.

    The system launch also signals next steps of YBUOJ in global expansion. The platform plans to establish compliance operation centers in South America, Eastern Europe, and Southeast Asia to further localize platform services and implement a strategy of “operating while adapting” through communication mechanisms with local regulatory bodies.

    Berton Hosea added, “As the global digital asset market matures, the clarity of regulatory frameworks will become a core standard for platforms to win user trust. The dynamic compliance engine of YBUOJ is our long-term commitment to the safety and legal rights of user assets.”

    The launch of the dynamic compliance system is not only a reflection of technological innovation but also a release of values: “to make regulation the foundation for driving innovation, rather than a barrier to development.”

    Since its inception, YBUOJ has adhered to a “technology-driven + compliance-first” approach. Its microservice architecture, AI-driven data engine, full-chain encryption transmission, and distributed clearing system collectively build a robust platform capable of responding to rapidly changing market environments.

    In an increasingly institutionalized market nowadays, those who can first build compliance barriers will have the opportunity to occupy the absolute high ground in the next round of industry reshuffling. YBUOJ, with its dynamic cross-border compliance engine, is leading the way in this regulatory upgrade.

  • MIL-OSI: Best Indoor Antenna 2025: BroadWave HD TV Antenna Review For Rural Reception & Signal Boost

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    New York City, May 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Introduction – Best Indoor Antenna For HD TV

    In an age dominated by streaming platforms and digital subscriptions, the value of local TV channels hasn’t faded. In fact, millions across the country—especially those in remote or rural regions—still depend on free over-the-air (OTA) broadcasts. Yet, with increasing distance from signal towers, many face frustrating signal dropouts, pixelated screens, or limited channel access.

    This is where indoor antennas have re-emerged as essential tools for clear, consistent viewing. One standout solution, designed with rural signal challenges in mind, is the BroadWave HDTV Antenna. As we move through 2025, this antenna has become a top pick for households seeking high-definition clarity without expensive service fees.
    This review explores why BroadWave is gaining attention, how it performs in low-signal zones, and how it compares to other popular options available today.
    Top Pick: BroadWave Antenna – Best Indoor Antenna for HD TV & Powerful Signal Reception this year.
    Why Indoor Antennas Still Matter in 2025
    Despite the growth of streaming, there’s a significant segment of viewers who rely on antennas—particularly in areas where broadband infrastructure remains limited. Indoor antennas offer:

    • Zero monthly fees
    • Access to major networks (ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, PBS)
    • High-definition quality without cable

    These devices also serve as backup solutions during outages or emergencies when internet-based services fail.
    For those living outside city centers, cutting the cord becomes practical only with reliable access to local broadcasts. That’s why indoor antennas—especially long-range models—continue to matter now more than ever.

    Challenges of TV Reception in Rural Areas
    Rural environments present unique obstacles for signal transmission:

    • Greater distance from broadcast towers
    • Obstructions like hills, trees, and buildings
    • Weather interference, especially in open terrain

    Many indoor antennas marketed as “long-range” struggle under these conditions, leading to poor channel availability or frequent signal loss.
    This makes it essential to choose a model engineered for strong amplification, wide reception angles, and robust performance in less-than-ideal locations. BroadWave fits this mold and aims to solve these common headaches.
    What to Look for in a Top Indoor Antenna
    When shopping for an indoor antenna—particularly if you live in a rural or suburban area—focus on features that directly impact performance:

    • Signal Range: Look for options offering reception from 150+ miles, especially if you’re far from towers.
    • Built-in Amplifier: Helps strengthen weak signals and minimizes dropouts.
    • Multidirectional Capability: Captures signals from multiple directions without constant repositioning.
    • 4K & Full HD Compatibility: Ensures you’re ready for modern broadcast standards.
    • Flexible Mounting: Can be wall-mounted, window-placed, or flat-laid.
    • Plug-and-Scan Setup: No tech knowledge needed.

    The BroadWave Antenna brings together all these elements into one streamlined unit—designed to serve even in tough environments.

    A short brief introduction to BroadWave Antenna

    The company Tech Wave communications proudly showcases BroadWave antenna as their premium flagship product in the space that is currently called cutting and positions this product with enhanced performance with budget alternatives. Physically, the PW antenna has a very modern and sleek design with a really thin profile at just 0.2 inches in thickness and it measures 12 X 14 inches making it the most compact option in the market today. It makes use of a technology that uses advanced signal reception that includes proprietary signal and application, which the manufacturer claims helps receive signals from up to 75 miles away. Situated broadcast towers in optimal conditions. The beat antenna is made from materials such as durable polymer, which are integrated with copper Elements for better reception.

    This device comes in two different variations: the standard BroadWave antenna and the BroadWave antenna pro that comes along with an extra signal booster meant for environments where perception of signals can be quite challenging. Both the models feature the patented CleanSignal technology, technology of the company, which filters out FM signal interference and cellular signal interference to achieve better sound quality and clear pictures.

    Understanding its working mechanism

    The BroadWave antenna captures OTA television signals, but with several technological enhancements which helps it stand out from the other TV antennas. It functions very similar to the traditional antenna by working on the basic principles of electromagnetic wave reception. 

    But the modern digital technology added to the BroadWave antenna is what makes it stronger. Unlike the regular subscription services that transmit the content via satellite dishes or cables, the BroadWave antenna Will intercept these free broadcast signals which are already moving from the air around your home or office.
    At the core, this antenna catches radio frequency waves sent out by television stations locally. And the signals travel within the atmosphere and are ready to be received by anybody within the range who are equipped with proper devices. Three main types of broadcast signals are captured by BroadWave antenna, they are:

    • Low VHF bands which are channels ranging from 2 to 6
    • High VHF bands which our channels ranging from 7 to 13
    • UHF bands which are channels ranging from 14 to 65

    No fees. No subscriptions. Just crystal-clear TV with BroadWave Antenna!

    When local TV stations send out broadcasts, those signals travel through the air from large transmission towers. The BroadWave Antenna is specifically designed to pick up these signals by aligning with the same frequency range. The fewer obstacles between your antenna and the tower, the better the signal quality you’ll get.

    After the antenna picks up the broadcast, it sends the signal to your television using a regular coaxial cable. Most modern TVs already come with built-in tuners that recognize and decode these signals, so there’s no need for any extra devices. Just plug the antenna into your TV’s coaxial port, run a quick channel scan, and you’re ready to watch.

    One of the best things about the BroadWave Antenna is how easy it is to use. There are no apps, no subscriptions, and no tech setup needed. It’s truly a plug-and-play solution — perfect for anyone who wants reliable access to free, over-the-air channels without the hassle.

    BroadWave Setup Guide: Simple 3-Step Install

    1. Connect the antenna to your TV’s coaxial input.
    2. Position it near a window or wall for best signal capture.
    3. Scan Channels using your TV’s settings menu.

    Once complete, your free HD channels will be available instantly. Pro tip: Mount higher for better range if you’re in a low valley or heavily wooded area.

    Benefits of using BroadWave Antenna

    The BroadWave antenna provides its consumers with umpteen number of compelling advantages, let’s take a look at some of them:

    • The financial benefits: it is considered as the most significant advantage of owning a BW antenna. Let’s say that with the traditional antenna along with people or satellite subscription bills that will range anywhere between $80 to 1 $50 monthly, but if they switch to an OTA solution like BroadWave antenna, they will be saving up $1800 on a yearly basis. The BroadWave antenna will require your to invest only as a one-time purchase, and it will not come with any regarding fees, contracts, or subscription cost.

    How to Improve Indoor Antenna Performance in Rural Areas
    Even the most powerful antenna can fall short if not placed or configured properly. If you’re using BroadWave or any high-range model in a rural setting, these small adjustments can greatly enhance signal strength:

    • Elevate the antenna: Higher placement typically results in better line-of-sight to broadcast towers. Try second-floor windows or wall mounting.
    • Avoid electronics: Keep your antenna away from routers, microwaves, or metal appliances to reduce signal interference.
    • Use a signal map: Free online tools like the FCC DTV Map or apps such as “Antenna Point” can help you find the closest tower directions.
    • Angle experimentation: While BroadWave captures signals in 360°, slight repositioning can still refine performance.
    • Rescan frequently: Broadcasting networks occasionally adjust frequencies. A fresh channel scan ensures you’re getting all available options.

    Simple tweaks like these can transform a weak, pixelated feed into reliable, crisp HD channels—even in off-grid regions.

    If your antenna setup isn’t delivering the results you expected, the problem might not be with the product. Here are common mistakes and quick fixes:

    • Didn’t scan for channels: After connecting, always scan for available broadcasts using your TV’s setup menu.

  • MIL-OSI: YBUOJ Deploys Real-Time Security Data Visualization Monitoring System to Fortify Asset Defense

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo., May 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Recently, YBUOJ officially launched its latest real-time security data visualization monitoring system, marking a significant step forward in user asset protection and data transparency. This feature not only fills the gap in security visualization that most trading platforms currently face but also further demonstrates the long-term commitment of YBUOJ to “verifiable transparency”.

    CEO Berton Hosea stated, “This is not just an upgrade of system functionality; it is the fulfillment of our promise to users. We aim to create not just a high-performance trading platform but the most robust defense for user asset security.”

    The system is a core achievement developed by YBUOJ based on “zero trust architecture”, integrating three engines: AI-driven dynamic risk identification, anomaly detection, and asset fluctuation visualization. This system upgrade is combined with the previously launched “adaptive market-making system” and “advanced clearing engine” by YBUOJ, achieving a closed-loop data security system from pre-trade risk identification, intra-trade behavior analysis, to post-trade behavior tracking.

    The launch of the real-time security data visualization system is not a single-point technical update but a crucial implementation under the long-term strategic planning of the platform. The platform clearly states that this system will serve as the technical foundation for future security and user experience upgrade projects, supporting the deep extension of its global compliance ecosystem.

    Additionally, YBUOJ will accelerate interface development with global security agencies and financial audit partners. Through standardized API interfaces, external auditors, partner banks, and custodial institutions will be able to directly connect to the security monitoring system, thus bridging the data gap between digital assets and traditional finance.

    From an industry perspective, the move by YBUOJ is quietly leading digital asset platforms toward a new path—shifting from “technology pursuing efficiency” to “technology serving trust”.

    Looking ahead, as more platforms recognize the importance of “security transparency” in the asset era, YBUOJ, with its early deployment and technological depth, is poised to seize the high ground of trust in the next round of global digital asset trading platform competition.

  • MIL-OSI: UGO Token Launches on PancakeSwap With Hybrid Model

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    SINGAPORE, May 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — UGO, the latest innovation in the Gooo, UGO, and WeGo ecosystem, officially unveils its groundbreaking Hybrid Token Model now live for trading on PancakeSwap, introducing a new paradigm for crypto launches—one rooted in fairness, sustainability, and real-world utility.

    In a market saturated with speculation and short-term gains, UGO takes a bold step toward creating a more balanced and inclusive Web3 economy. Traders can now access UGO through decentralized trading on PancakeSwap, while the token’s user-centric reward structure seeks to empower users, promote longevity, and foster true ecosystem participation.

    “This isn’t just another token launch—it’s a reimagining of how Web3 ecosystems can and should operate,” said the UGO founding team. “We believe that sustainability, fairness, and utility must coexist from day one. The Hybrid Token Model is our answer to that challenge.”

    The UGO Difference: A Launch Built for Long-Term Value

    UGO moves away from traditional crypto launch tactics that favor insiders and early profit takers. Instead, it launches with a hybrid model engineered to protect users, encourage community participation, and support long-term growth:

    • All VC and team tokens are fully locked for 12 to 48 months

    • Only 5 percent of the token supply is unlocked at launch

    • Pricing is driven by decentralized exchanges through automated market makers

    • Everyone can participate freely with no whitelist or early-access restrictions

    This launch strategy combines the accessibility of fair launches with the capital efficiency of IDOs, while avoiding the flaws of both.

    2024: A Breakout Year for UGO

    Security and Transparency

    UGO has achieved a 9.5 out of 10 security score from leading blockchain auditor Hacken. The token is live and actively trading on PancakeSwap and fully verified on BscScan. UGO is also integrated with major platforms, including CoinMarketCap and MetaMask.

    Strong Traction Through Gooo Platform

    In Vietnam, a thriving pilot has already brought thousands of users into the Gooo app. These users are earning Gooo Points through everyday real-world activities. Global expansion is scheduled for the first quarter of 2025.

    WeGo Brings Financial Utility

    WeGo has successfully completed testing of its debit card prototype. Strategic partnerships have been secured to enable multi-currency support. UGO token integration is entering its final development phase, bringing real-world spending closer to reality.

    Why Traders Are Turning to UGO

    UGO’s launch structure solves many of the common challenges seen in the crypto space:

    • With 95 percent of tokens locked at launch, price volatility is minimized

    • Team and advisor tokens follow a strict four-year vesting schedule, ensuring aligned incentives

    • Launch access is fully decentralized with no insider advantages

    What’s Ahead in 2025

    • Global expansion of the Gooo rewards platform

    • Listings on major centralized and decentralized exchanges

    • Launch of the WeGo debit card with support for multiple currencies

    • Development of DAO governance to give users control over the ecosystem’s future

    About the Ecosystem

    The Gooo, UGO, and WeGo ecosystem is a revolutionary platform that rewards users for performing their primary jobs, offering them Gooo Points as a bonus to their income.

  • MIL-OSI: lowRISC Welcomes Javier Orensanz Martinez as CEO

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    CAMBRIDGE, United Kingdom, May 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — lowRISC C.I.C., the open silicon ecosystem organisation, today announced the appointment of Javier Orensanz Martinez as CEO, effective 2 June 2025.

To ensure a smooth handover Gavin and Javier will be co-CEOs for the month of June, with Gavin stepping away officially at the end of the month.

    “Serving as the CEO of lowRISC for five years has been a tremendous privilege and a role I have greatly valued. I’m very proud of what we have achieved alongside our partners during this time — not least in having helped bring the first commercial open-source silicon to reality, with production OpenTitan chips going into Chromebook sockets this summer, Google datacentre applications to follow, and Rivos (and others) integrating the IP directly into their SoCs,” said Dr. Gavin Ferris, lowRISC Board Member and outgoing CEO. “I’m confident that in handing the reins over to Javier, his drive and experience will help propel lowRISC to the next level, build on the achievements we’ve accomplished with our valued partners already, and further the positive impacts of open-source silicon.”

    Javier joins lowRISC after a successful 22-year career at Arm, with 9 years of experience in VP roles: General Manager of the Development Solutions Group, VP of Developer Ecosystems and VP of Quality. He is passionate about the commercial value of open source, having witnessed first-hand how it revolutionised Arm’s approach to software. Javier brings a mix of savvy business background and technical knowledge, having managed a broad portfolio of software and hardware products, led acquisitions, and delivered growth through long-term partnerships and business model transformation.

    “I am so impressed with everything that Gavin and the lowRISC team have accomplished in the last 10 years in collaboration with its amazing partners and contributors,” said Javier Orensanz Martinez. “I am thrilled to join the organisation at such a pivotal time, with the first OpenTitan root-of-trust silicon having hit production, and look forward to building on its solid foundations to boost the adoption of open-source hardware.”

    “The Board and I would like to thank Gavin for his excellent leadership these last five years and recognise the tremendous accomplishments he and the team have made in open-source silicon,” said Sir Andy Hopper, lowRISC’s independent chair. “And we are thrilled to welcome Javier as the new CEO — his deep experience in the open-source and semiconductor space and proven track record of success in this industry aligns perfectly with lowRISC’s mission. This is a fantastic time for him to take lowRISC to the next stage of its journey and seize the opportunities available.”

    lowRISC’s purpose from the outset has been, and will continue to be, to help create and support commercially relevant open-source silicon designs that are widely adopted throughout industry. With Javier at the helm, the team will continue to drive long-term impact by fostering an open-source silicon ecosystem that benefits academia, industry, and broader society in general.

    Nine in ten public sector organizations to focus on agentic AI in the next 2-3 years, but data readiness is still a challenge

    • Public sector organizations recognize the potential of AI for enhancing decision making, improving service delivery and driving operational efficiency, with two-thirds (64%) already exploring or actively working on Gen AI initiatives
    • Challenges with data readiness remain, with only 21% of public sector organizations saying they have the requisite data to train and fine-tune AI models

    Paris, May 20, 2025 – The new Capgemini Research Institute report published today, Data foundations for government – From AI ambition to execution,’ finds that two thirds of public sector organizations are already exploring or actively using generative AI (Gen AI) initiatives to aid the provision of public services. Public sector organizations are also preparing to embrace agentic AI, with 90% planning to explore, pilot, or implement the technology within the next 2-3 years. However, these organizations lag in crucial data readiness, hindering their ability to leverage the full potential of AI. Currently, they face significant challenges with trust, compliance, data management and data sharing.

    With governments seeking to boost efficiency, improve public services, and address complex societal challenges, public sector organizations have high expectations for AI. According to the new report, within the next 2-3 years, 39% of public sector organizations aim to evaluate the feasibility of agentic AI, 45% intend to explore pilot programs, and 6% plan to scale their existing agentic AI initiatives. Attitudes towards agentic AI adoption are mostly consistent across segments, levels of government, and organizational sizes. The report finds that nearly two-thirds (64%) of organizations have progressed to pilots and scaled deployments, or are exploring Gen AI, with this number rising to 82% in defense agencies, 75% in healthcare, and 70% in security.

    “With rising citizen demands and stretched resources, public sector organizations recognize the ways in which AI can help them do more with less. However, the ability to deploy Gen AI and agentic AI depends on having rock-solid data foundations,” said Marc Reinhardt, Public Sector Global Industry Leader at Capgemini. “Looking ahead, governments can be more agile and effective as AI augments the work of government employees to source information, conduct policy analysis, make decisions, and answer citizen queries. However, to reach this future, governments need to focus on building the right data infrastructure and governance frameworks.”

    Organizations struggle with AI adoption due to data and trust issues
    Despite ambitions to embrace and scale AI use, public sector executives cite data security issues (79%) and limited trust in AI-generated outputs (74%) as primary barriers to widespread adoption. In the EU, organizations report a significant gap in confidence when it comes to complying with the EU AI Act1, with less than four in ten (36%) prepared to meet these requirements.

    To progress their Gen AI adoption, public sector organizations require better data mastery, with the public sector showing limited progress in key areas of data management and utilization since 2020. The report finds that only 12% of organizations consider themselves very mature in activating data, while 7% report being very mature in nurturing data and AI-related skills. Only a fifth (21%) of public sector organizations surveyed have the required data to train and fine-tune AI models, including Gen AI models.

    Data sharing concerns and the rise of the Chief Data Officer
    Data sharing is vital for AI adoption as it boosts the volume and diversity of data to enhance AI model performance and optimize decision making. But data sharing initiatives are further complicated by concerns about data, cloud, and AI sovereignty. Despite all public sector organizations surveyed either having or planning to have data sharing initiatives, they are not yet mature; most organizations (65%) worldwide are still in the planning or pilot stages.

    Governments are increasingly recognizing the critical role of harnessing data in the public sector, and this is reflected in the growing prominence of Chief Data Officers (CDO) and Chief AI Officers (CAIO). As many as 64% of public sector organizations already have a CDO, while 24% plan to appoint one, showing a willingness to invest in dedicated leadership for data-driven governance. Furthermore, the increasing strategic value of AI has resulted in over a quarter (27%) of public sector organizations appointing a Chief AI Officer, over a quarter (27%) already having one and 41% planning to introduce this new C-level role.

    Report Methodology
    In December 2024 and January 2025, the Capgemini Research Institute conducted a survey of executives from 350 public sector organizations with two respondents from each organization – one from the IT/data function and one from a line of business (LOB). These executives represented organizations across six public sector segments: public administration, tax and customs, welfare, defense, security, and healthcare. They operated at various levels of government, including national, state, local, and international, and were located in countries across North America, Europe, APAC, and the Middle East.

    Press Release
    Nokia trials 5G technology during Joint Viking military exercise in Norway

    • Worked alongside industry partners to deploy Nokia 5G AirScale radios and 5G Standalone Core, enhancing tactical communication during multinational Arctic defense exercise.
    • Nokia’s 5G technology supported advanced defense applications and provided real-time information to field personnel.

    20 May 2025
    Espoo, Finland – Nokia, in collaboration with industry partners, tested 5G technology in a defense scenario during Joint Viking 2025, a Norwegian military exercise. Throughout the trial, Nokia’s 5G technology enabled field personnel from multiple nations with advanced defense applications, enhancing situational awareness and facilitating seamless cooperation across military units.

    Nokia’s solutions included 5G AirScale radio products and 5G Standalone Core technology tuned for defense applications, to enhance tactical communication and information systems among participating nations. Nokia’s 5G communications platform gave military personnel access to real-time battlefield intelligence, facilitating faster decision-making. The Joint Viking command and control leadership leveraged this data to improve situational awareness, streamline operations, and enhance both safety and efficiency throughout the exercise.

    Joint Viking 2025 took place in Bardufoss, located in northern Norway, above the Arctic Circle. It included more than 10,000 soldiers from Belgium, Canada, Finland, France, Germany, US, UK, The Netherlands, and Norway. Occurring every two years, the exercise aims to enhance military cooperation, support protection of NATO’s northern flank and test Norway’s ability to receive allied reinforcements.

    The Norwegian Material Defense Agency (NDMA), an agency directly subordinate to the Norwegian Ministry of Defense, collaborates with Norway’s mobile operators as key service partners. Recently, the Norwegian energy and telecom group Lyse and Nokia have entered into a strategic agreement to enhance tactical communication solutions for Norway, leveraging their expertise and strengths in critical communications.

    “We collaborate with the industry to develop innovative defense solutions based on commercial technologies. A prime example is advanced software functionality, which enables Nokia’s 5G systems to operate in GNSS-denied environments, along with their next-generation radio equipment, engineered for reduced size, weight, and power. Nokia’s 5G technology was instrumental in the success of the Joint Viking exercise, enhancing the Norwegian Armed Forces’ readiness for complex joint operations in challenging conditions,” said Kennet Nomeland, Radio Architect and Norway’s Ministry of Defense liaison for 5G COMPAD program.

    “The scalable, secure and reliable connectivity that 5G provides has an important role in strengthening the tactical communication capabilities of defense forces. The successful trial of 5G in the field at Joint Viking exercise is evidence of Nokia’s continued progress in the defense sector and highlights Norwegian Armed Forces’ position as a leader in deploying advanced communication technologies for tactical operations,” commented Giuseppe Targia, Head of Space and Defense at Nokia.

    As soon as they are created, the new shares will be subject to all the provisions of the Issuer’s Articles of Association and will bear dividends rights as of 1 January 2025. As a result, they will be fully assimilated with the existing shares and will entitle the shareholders of a public limited company to the associated legal prerogatives. In particular, they will entitle shareholders to ownership of the company’s assets and the liquidation surplus, in a proportion equal to the percentage of share capital they represent. Similarly, the dividend is distributed to shareholders in proportion to their shareholding.

    A double voting right, in proportion to the capital represented, is allocated to all fully paid-up shares registered in the name of the same shareholder, for at least two years, as well as to new registered shares granted free of charge to a shareholder, in the event of a capital increase through the incorporation of reserves, profits or issue premiums, in respect of shares entitled thereto.

    In accordance with Article L. 214-165 II, paragraph 3, of the French Monetary and Financial Code, the voting rights attached to Societe Generale shares subscribed via the FCPE will be exclusively exercised individually by the unitholders of said FCPE and, for fractional units, by the supervisory board of said FCPE.

    In the event of a public purchase or exchange offer, the supervisory board of the FCPE decide, based on the relative majority of the votes cast, whether or not to tender Societe Generale shares to the offer. If there is no relative majority, the decision is put to the vote of the unitholders, who decide based on the relative majority of the votes cast.

    Marketability of shares

    No clauses in the Articles of Association limit the free marketability of the shares comprising Societe Generale’s capital.

    Only the rules below governing the unavailability of shares under a Company or Group Savings Plan will limit the marketability of said shares.

    Unavailability Shares held directly by the Beneficiaries and units of the employee mutual fund, as applicable, will be unavailable for a period of 5 years, barring cases of early release subject to the conditions applicable to the Company or Group Savings Plan in question. As regards the 2nd tranche, in some countries, depending on local legislation, some cases of early release will not be open to employees.

    Investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible.

    – MSTR Risks: The Fund’s investments in swap contracts and options tied to MSTR’s share price expose it to potential declines in MSTR’s value, which could lead to significant losses.
    – Bitcoin Risk: Indirect exposure to Bitcoin via MSTR subjects the Fund to cryptocurrency market volatility.
    – Leverage Risk: Derivative instruments used for leverage may result in losses exceeding the Fund’s net assets.

    – Derivatives Risks: Options and swap contracts carry risks such as imperfect correlation with underlying assets and potential for loss exceeding the initial investment.
    – New Fund Risk: As a newly launched fund, $MST has no operating history, limiting investors’ ability to assess its performance.

    The 30-Day SEC Yield is not indicative of future distributions, which may vary significantly or be zero. Distributions may include ordinary dividends, capital gains, and return of investor capital, which may decrease the Fund’s NAV and trading price over time, potentially leading to significant losses.

  • MIL-OSI: Alchera X Strengthens Partnership with WatchTowers to Deliver Internationally Acclaimed AI-Powered Premium Wildfire Detection Across Australia

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    LOS ANGELES, May 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Alchera X (“AX”), a leading AI SaaS company specializing in visual and facial recognition technologies, is proud to highlight the success of its strategic partnership with Australia-based WatchTowers Network, a pioneer in emergency response technology. At the heart of this collaboration is FireScout, Alchera X’s cutting-edge AI system for real-time wildfire smoke detection—now a trusted tool in emergency operations centers across multiple continents.

    What began three years ago as a promising integration effort to save property and lives in Australia, has matured into a fully operational, field-tested system that is transforming the way emergency services detect and respond to wildfires. Leveraging WatchTowers’ situational awareness platform, WatchTowers Command, FireScout has successfully been monitoring thousands of square miles 24/7, delivering automated wildfire detection alerts to first responders, that save precious minutes when every second counts.

    “We built FireScout with one goal in mind: to give emergency responders critical time and insight to act before wildfires escalate,” said Michael Plaksin, President & CEO of Alchera X. “Our partnership with WatchTowers proves that when advanced AI is combined with operational expertise, the result is smarter, faster, and more effective fire detection with 99.9% accuracy.”

    Real-World Impact

    Through rigorous real-world testing supported by the Minderoo Foundation, FireScout has been deployed in over 1,000 fire events, demonstrating exceptional accuracy in diverse conditions—including remote terrain, nighttime operations, and long-distance detection up to 37 miles (60 km) from a WatchTowers station. The system significantly reduces false positives by learning continuously from every confirmed or dismissed fire, increasing and improving the system’s accuracy over time.

    As an example, FireScout detected smoke 10 minutes before emergency services were alerted via 911 in Sonoma County, California —offering emergency responders a critical window (or what’s known as “Golden Minutes”) to quickly react and help save property and lives.

    Seamless Integration and Trusted Reliability

    FireScout was meticulously integrated into the WatchTowers Command platform, allowing AI-generated alerts to trigger automated workflows—such as hazard flagging, camera zoom-ins, and inter-agency coordination—without manual intervention. The result is a streamlined response system that empowers teams to focus on action rather than surveillance.

    As noted regarding WatchTowers’ recent press release:

    “FireScout’s performance speaks for itself, but what truly sets Alchera X apart is their hands-on, solution-focused approach. From day one, they collaborated with us to help us overcome integration challenges and streamline the user experience for frontline teams. Their commitment to partnership—not just their premium wildfire detection product—has been instrumental in delivering real-world impact. We’re proud to work alongside them as a trusted technology partner.”

    Global Reach, Expanding Impact

    AX has already deployed its FireScout technology in the United States & Canada, Australia & the APAC Region, as well as parts of Europe, and are working with several partners to expand globally. FireScout was recently showcased at the Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) Conference in Reno over the past few years to global acclaim. Its versatility and reliability make it a cornerstone technology for agencies seeking to modernize their wildfire detection strategies.

    FireScout leads the charge in real-time smoke detection, empowering emergency services with earlier, smarter alerts. Alchera X is an AI SaaS company based in Los Angeles, specializing in real-time visual and facial recognition solutions. One of its premier products, FireScout, leverages advanced machine learning to detect wildfires through live video analysis, helping emergency services act quickly and decisively. Alchera X is dedicated to safeguarding people, property, and ecosystems through innovation that makes a real-world difference protecting over 5 million square miles globally.

    As climate volatility drives more frequent and intense fire seasons, Alchera X is committed to advancing the capabilities of FireScout—making it faster, more adaptable, and easier to deploy across new regions and networks around the world.

These statements constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, and are subject to the safe harbors created thereby. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties and are based on a number of assumptions that could ultimately prove inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance that they will prove to be accurate. Actual results and outcomes may vary materially from what is expressed or forecast in such statements due to various risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties include, among other things, the possibility of drilling cost overruns and technical difficulties, volatility of oil and gas prices, competition, risks inherent in the Company’s oil and gas operations, the inexact nature of interpretation of seismic and other geological and geophysical data, imprecision of reserve estimates, and the Company’s ability to replace and expand oil and gas reserves. Accordingly, stockholders and potential investors are cautioned that certain events or circumstances could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected.
