  • MIL-OSI: Radix and Celanese Partnership Leverages AI to Harness the Power of Industrial Data

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    HOUSTON, Jan. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Radix, a global technology solutions company at the forefront of industrial digital transformation, and Celanese, a global chemical and specialty material company, are proud to collaborate with Cognite, the global leader in data and AI for industry, on the development of JO.AI, a groundbreaking generative AI-powered solution designed to revolutionize operations in asset-intensive industries.

    Born from the successful development and implementation at Celanese by Radix through their engineering intelligence expertise – and powered by Cognite Data Fusion®, the market-leading DataOps and AI platform for enterprise-scale, complex industrial data management projects – JO.AI is poised to redefine how industrial manufacturers leverage data for enhanced productivity and operational excellence at scale.

    JO.AI will be showcased at the upcoming ARC Industry Leadership Forum 2025 taking place in Orlando, Florida, from February 10-13 under the theme “On the Ground: Accelerate. Optimize. Scale.” Radix will showcase and discuss how the powerful industrial solution is optimizing the future of smart digital manufacturing, directly addressing the challenges faced across industries such as Energy, Chemical, Manufacturing, Oil & Gas, Power Generation & Distribution, Pulp & Paper, and Metals, Mining & Minerals. Industrial manufacturers often struggle to unlock the full potential of their data, even with the presence of data aggregators.

    JO.AI solves this problem by acting as an advanced Industrial Copilot, enabling intuitive, natural language interaction with the Industrial Knowledge Graph provided by Cognite Data Fusion® to make complex data easier to access and action into intelligence tailored specifically for the process industry. JO.AI leverages Cognite Data Fusion’s unmatched data management and comprehensive AI infrastructure to enable the Gen AI application to carry out more complex operations with greater accuracy.

    With Cognite Data Fusion® as its backbone, JO.AI combines operational insights with pre-trained AI agents focused on specific process use cases. “AI has proven to be a valuable business catalyst in today’s dynamic manufacturing landscape, offering unparalleled opportunities for optimization and innovation,” said Sameer Purao, Senior Vice President and CIO at Celanese. “We developed JO.AI – in collaboration with Radix, on top of the robust data foundation provided by Cognite Data Fusion® – to harness the power of AI to improve efficiency, reduce costs and elevate overall productivity.

    Additionally, AI enables smart production through real-time data analysis, facilitating data-driven decisions, process optimization and swift response to market demand. Incorporating AI into our manufacturing operations is not just a technological advancement, but also a competitive advantage.”

    “Digital transformation, especially with AI-powered solutions, is only as strong as the data foundation it’s built upon,” said Bill Hendricks, President of Cognite Americas. “Cognite accelerates time-to-value by enabling seamless integration and management of complex industrial data, providing the essential infrastructure for innovative applications like JO.AI. Working alongside a forward-thinking partner like Radix, who shares our commitment to pushing the boundaries of industrial innovation, we empower organizations to unlock unprecedented value from their data and drive real operational impact.”

    JO.AI empowers operators and engineers in four key areas:

    1. Optimized Operator Rounds: JO.AI provides insights that ensure operations teams are focusing their rounds on the right checklists.

    2. Data-Driven Checklist Management: It recommends the optimal frequency of checklist items, identifies areas with high-volume issues, and highlights deviations.

    3. Balanced Workload: JO.AI helps ensure that the checklist workload is appropriate for each shift.

    4. Streamlined Maintenance: The solution facilitates maintenance and work notification opportunities, recommending resource plans and even assisting operators in writing work orders.

    “JO.AI represents a significant leap forward in the application of AI for industrial settings and asset intensive industries,” said Alex Clausbruch, CEO of Radix North America. “By combining Radix’s expertise in AI and software development with Celanese’s deep industry knowledge, we’ve created a solution that not only addresses the current challenges of data utilization but also unlocks new levels of efficiency and optimization. We believe JO.AI will be a game-changer for asset-intensive industries.”

    “The development of JO.AI is a testament to the power of collaboration and innovation,” added Justin Conroy, Vice President, Digital Product Portfolio at Radix. “We’ve worked closely with Celanese to ensure that JO.AI meets the specific needs of industrial operators worldwide. This solution is not just about technology; it’s about empowering people and teams with the insights they need to make better decisions and drive real business value.”

    Radix will be participating as a Gold Sponsor at the ARC Leadership Forum 2025 in Orlando next month with several opportunities to engage with industry leaders, customers, partners and learn more about JO.AI and its capabilities.

  • MIL-OSI: Credit Agricole SA : Crédit Agricole Personal Finance & Mobility finalizes the GAC Leasing equity project to support the growth of GAC Group’s electric vehicle sales in China

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    Massy – January 27th, 2025

    Crédit Agricole Personal Finance & Mobility
    finalizes the GAC Leasing equity project to support the growth of GAC Group’s electric vehicle sales in China

    • CA Personal Finance & Mobility finalizes the planned acquisition of 50% of the equity interests of GAC Finance Leasing Co. Ltd. (GAC Leasing), which becomes Guangzhou GAC-Sofinco Finance Leasing Co Ltd (GAC-Sofinco Leasing), the leasing company of one of the largest Chinese manufacturers Guangzhou Automobile Group Co., Ltd. (GAC Group), via a reserved capital increase.
    • With this new joint venture, CA Personal Finance & Mobility will offer financial and operational leasing solutions on the Chinese market in 2025 and will thus promote the deployment of electric vehicles in China.
    • This transaction consolidates a partnership existing since 2009 between CA Personal Finance & Mobility and GAC Group with the creation of GAC-Sofinco AFC, a 50-50 joint venture. The latter operates throughout China and offers automotive financing and services to the GAC-Honda, GAC-Toyota, AION, HYPTEC and GAC Motor networks, serving more than 3,000 dealers.

    CA Personal Finance & Mobility becomes a 50% shareholder in GAC-Sofinco Leasing

    Following a reserved capital increase, CA Personal Finance & Mobility owns 50% of GAC-Sofinco Leasing. The company has been operating on the Chinese market since 2004 and offers financial and operational leasing solutions to GAC customers and its dealer network.

    Through this transaction, CA Personal Finance & Mobility and GAC group are strengthening the leasing offer proposed to Chinese customers, thereby stimulating the sale of electric vehicles, which already represent 60% of the leasing contracts of the new GAC-Sofinco Leasing on a portfolio of more than 200,000 vehicles.

    All necessary authorizations from competition authorities and competent regulators have been obtained. The impact on the CET1 ratio of Crédit Agricole S.A. and that of the Crédit Agricole group will be very limited. 

    « This transaction reaffirms the importance of our long-standing partnership with GAC group. It will enable us to support together and over the long term the development of the particularly dynamic electric automobile market in China. »

    Stéphane PRIAMI – CEO of Crédit Agricole Personal Finance & Mobility

    Key figures:

    • In 2023, GAC group was the 4th largest automotive group in China
    • More than 2.5 million vehicles sold in 2023 worldwide
    • 39,90% of electrified vehicles sold in 2023

  • MIL-OSI: EBC Financial Group Partners with Shakti Regeneration Institute to Empower Marginalised Communities and Promote Indigenous Conservation Efforts

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    RANAGHAT, India, Jan. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — EBC Financial Group (EBC), a leading global financial brokerage, proudly announces its latest Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative through a strategic partnership with the Shakti Empowerment Education Foundation, part of the Shakti Regeneration Institute (SRI). This collaboration will support the Ramakrishna Vedanta Vidyapith school in West Bengal, India, providing 50 low-income students with access to essential educational materials, uniforms, vocational sewing classes, and extracurricular activities.

    This partnership forms part of EBC’s broader CSR strategy, which complements its role as a global financial brokerage, enabling access to global markets while promoting equitable education and sustainable development in communities where economic opportunities are limited.

    EBC Financial Group has supported the University of Oxford’s What Economists Really Do (WERD) public education series through the sponsorship of two episodes: The Economics of Tax Evasion in 2023 and Macroeconomics and Climate in November 2024. These episodes explore how economics can address significant societal issues and reflect EBC’s broader mission of empowering informed decision-making—a principle that also drives its global brokerage services, enabling individuals and institutions to confidently navigate financial markets. The WERD series is independently produced by the Department of Economics, showcasing its dedication to bridging academic research and real-world challenges.

    Together, these initiatives demonstrate EBC’s dedication to advancing educational access, promoting critical discourse, and addressing the interconnected challenges of socio-economic development and sustainability. Shifting focus to India, EBC’s partnership with SRI reinforces its mission to drive long-term societal change at the local level, equipping individuals with the tools to thrive and contribute to the development of their communities while promoting sustainable development at the grassroots level.

    In addition to this critical sponsorship, EBC’s leadership in global advocacy is reflected in its contributions to the upcoming documentary #TheRegenerationGeneration, an initiative of SRI directed by its founder, Indrani Pal-Chaudhuri. The film, which addresses the urgent need for regenerative finance and education, highlights the efforts of Nobel Prize-winners, innovators, business leaders, educators, and Indigenous leaders working together to protect vulnerable ecosystems and communities from the increasing threats of climate change. It also features interviews with David Barrett, CEO of EBC Financial Group (UK) Ltd., and Professor Teytelboym from the Department of Economics, Oxford University. EBC’s involvement across both social projects underscores its commitment to not only supporting local communities but also driving global awareness and action toward sustainable and equitable futures.

    Barrett expressed the strategic importance of this partnership: “At EBC, we recognise that the true power of education creates the foundation for transforming societies and creating pathways to lasting change. Our partnership with Shakti Regeneration Institute is more than a sponsorship—it reflects our dedication to uplifting the next generation, as we support the Ramakrishna Vedanta Vidyapith school in equipping marginalised children with the tools they need to thrive. Through our involvement in the #TheRegenerationGeneration 2025 documentary, we are amplifying the voices of Indigenous communities and supporting the preservation of their cultural and environmental heritage. Similarly, our collaboration with the University of Oxford’s Department of Economics on their WERD program underscores our dedication to enhancing global understanding of critical economic and societal issues. By investing in education at every level, we aim to create opportunities, promote equity, and address the challenges of our time. These efforts align seamlessly with our core values of integrity, responsibility, and sustainability.”

    Ajay Pal-Chaudhuri, Chairman and Founder of Shakti Regeneration Institute, remarked, “We are thrilled to announce our partnership with EBC Financial Group, a collaboration that embodies the convergence of corporate responsibility and global impact. Together, we embark on a transformative journey, combining our strengths in education and ecological advocacy to empower communities worldwide. With EBC’s support, we are not only empowering marginalised children through education but also raising global awareness about the critical challenges facing Indigenous communities and the plight of vulnerable ecosystems.”

    Foundational Values at the Heart of EBC’s Mission
    EBC’s commitment to making a meaningful difference aligns with its core values of dedication, responsibility, and integrity. By ensuring that financial resources are directed toward impactful projects, EBC exemplifies how corporate responsibility can foster real-world change, contributing to the welfare of communities and the preservation of ecosystems that sustain vulnerable populations. Operating under top-tier regulation, EBC combines its mission to equip investors with access to global markets such as currencies, indices, and commodities with impactful social investments that contribute to community welfare and sustainability.

    The Ramakrishna Vedanta Vidyapith school, which will celebrate the 25th anniversary of its founding in January 2025, has been a vital institution in the betterment of local communities in West Bengal. Through its educational programs, the school empowers children and women from marginalised backgrounds, helping them to break the cycle of poverty and contribute positively to their communities. EBC’s support enhances the school’s mission, helping to ensure that these children receive not only basic education but also vocational training and community-building opportunities that will prepare them for long-term success.

  • MIL-OSI: Applied Labs raises $4.2M to make it easy to build high quality AI support and ops digital employees

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    New York, Jan. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Every company today faces mounting pressure to deploy AI, but most solutions fall short on reliability and cannot handle complex, critical workflows. Applied Labs, founded by early Scale AI leaders, announced $4.2 million funding to transform how businesses deploy AI agents for complex support and operations tasks.

    The seed round was led by Abstract, with participation from Point72 Ventures, Outlander, and Tetra. A few notable angel investors include Vercel CEO Guillermo Rauch, Modal CTO Akshat Bubna, and ex-Twitter exec Ali Rowghani. This latest round brings the total raised by Applied Labs to $5.2 million.

    Applied Labs founders: Soham Waychal and Michael Woo.

    Founded in January 2024 by Michael Woo and Soham Waychal, Applied Labs emerged from their firsthand experience with AI applications at Scale AI, where they recognized how much time was spent on critical yet repetitive support interactions and ops workflows. Woo – who joined Scale AI as employee #20 and led a team of 30 focused on ops scalability – saw the opportunity to build AI agents that could handle complex workflows with unprecedented reliability. Waychal, who previously led engineering at a16z-backed Canal and holds 5 AI patents, brings deep technical expertise to the challenge.

    “For companies, there’s an explosion of C-Suite and boardroom interest into the question, what is our AI strategy?” said Michael Woo, CEO of Applied Labs. “The bottleneck isn’t the model anymore – LLM quality, speed and cost have reached an inflection point where almost every business can save time, cost and improve the quality of their support and ops. The challenge is in the data, tools and platform for teams to easily setup and perfect AI agents on their business-critical workflows.  We’re obsessed with making our AI agents the best where if you’re not using them, you’re falling behind.”

    The company focuses on support and operations teams.  Their current solution is an end to end AI customer support agent fine-tuned to the businesses’ knowledge base and empowered with AI actions which typically involve first and third party integrations.  Digital employees in other domains like operations are incoming.  But Woo emphasizes the importance of a human in the loop to ensure quality on all domains.  “AI allows you to scale up your best human judgement on an infinite volume of tasks but human judgment is still necessary to get the best quality results and handle edge cases.“ Woo said.   

    Uniquely, the Applied Labs team is using their expertise at Scale AI to build high quality, reliable and easy to use AI agents.  The solution uniquely combines three critical components to get what they believe are the best results: omnichannel interactions spanning chat, email and phone to handle 100% of volume; sophisticated AI agent orchestration for handling Q&A and AI workflows; and comprehensive evaluation tools for testing, auditing and monitoring AI outputs. This approach includes built-in human-in-the-loop escalations, recognizing that finding the right balance between AI efficiency and human touch for complex, emotional interactions remains crucial.

    The stakes are high – a single misstep in handling customer inquiries or operational tasks can erode trust and escalate problems.  “At Scale when we first did AI labeling or if you think about self-driving cars or even these AI sales agents, if you scale up a poorly thought out AI response or workflow on high volume, it’s deeply damaging.” Woo said.  Applied Labs addresses this by building guardrails and monitoring systems to rigorously test the AI with human-in-the-loop auditing before any new capabilities are broadly deployed. 

    Applied Labs plans to double its headcount in the coming months to meet growing customer interest. The funding will accelerate hiring of engineers to advance the company’s ambitious product roadmap.

    “Few founders truly grasp the operational intricacies of deploying AI in mission-critical workflows. Michael’s experience managing Scale AI’s core data product brings a rare fusion of technical acumen and practical experience — exactly what’s needed to make AI both dependable and transformative. Applied Labs’ commitment to pairing trust with capability, underpinned by their human-in-the-loop approach, is precisely what enterprises need to confidently embrace AI-powered customer support. We couldn’t be more excited to partner with Michael and his team on this journey” commented Ramtin Naimi, Founder & General Partner, Abstract. 

    “Technical decision makers will save their team countless hours everyday on the most frustrating and repetitive workflows,” added Woo. “AI agents, when crafted correctly by the right person, allow you to scale up your best human thinking on repetitive support interactions or ops workflows helping save significant time without sacrificing quality.”

    Looking ahead, while the AI industry races to replace human workflows, Applied Labs is pioneering a more nuanced vision: high quality AI agents that combine machine efficiency with human judgment. By focusing on quality, reliability and empowering non-technical teams to resolve the most complex, painful issues with AI, the company is building toward a future where almost every company can confidently deploy AI across their most complex operations—transforming not just how work gets done, but redefining what’s possible when artificial and human intelligence work in harmony.

  • MIL-OSI: Devvio Inc. Grants Exclusive Global License for Groundbreaking Exchange Technology to DevvDigital Inc

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    LAS VEGAS, Jan. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — DevvDigital Inc. is proud to announce it has been granted an exclusive global license from Devvio Inc, for its next-generation exchange technology, allowing for the operation of DevvExchange—a revolutionary digital asset exchange platform that sets new benchmarks for security, speed, and compliance. DevvExchange will allow customers to trade digital assets while maintaining full control of their assets throughout exchange transactions. Further, high-speed and cost-effective exchange transactions settle mathematically instantaneously, solving one of the biggest problems across all types of exchanges today.

    The key invention for the new exchange approach is Devvio’s patent pending Contingent Transaction Set (CTS) technology, which allows blockchain transactions to be grouped together and directly validated on the DevvX blockchain by its validators. Transactions in a CTS are each approved if and only if all criteria for the transactions are individually met. Then, when a group of exchange transactions is validated, all transactions occur at the same mathematical instant, thereby exchanging assets instantaneously with no middlemen or settlement risk.

    This strategic collaboration positions DevvExchange as the premier destination for institutional and retail traders alike, leveraging Devvio’s cutting-edge DevvX blockchain, which boasts unparalleled capabilities such as infinite scalability, unparalleled throughput, architectural flexibility, ease of integration through a RESTful API, and best-in-class cost-effectiveness.

    A New Era for Digital Asset Trading

    With the exclusive license in place, DevvDigital is uniquely empowered to drive the global rollout of this powerful new exchange architecture, transforming the trading experience by eliminating the inefficiencies and risks that plague traditional exchanges. Key features include:

    • Non-Custodial Architecture: Users retain full control of their assets at all times, enhancing security and eliminating settlement risks. Middlemen, and their related costs and delays, are removed. This approach removes the risks that the FTX exchange infamously demonstrated.
    • Instant T+0 Settlement: Trades are settled instantaneously, removing counterparty risks. Transactions are validated directly by validators on the DevvX blockchain rather than through smart contract implementations, which provides for fast, inexpensive trades.
    • Regulatory First: Built to meet and exceed the strictest compliance standards in key jurisdictions, DevvExchange will provide users with unmatched peace of mind. For the first time, a regulatory compliant digital-asset exchange will allow for trades where users’ assets are not held by the exchange itself.

    “I have no doubt that global asset exchanges of the future will be implemented as we, for the first time, now allow– mathematically instantaneous exchange with no middlemen,” said Tom Anderson, CEO of Devvio Inc. “That is a big statement, but it should be intuitively clear. If any two parties can exchange assets immediately and inexpensively, with no counterparty risk and full control of their assets throughout a trade, it is a dramatic improvement over both TradFi and Crypto exchanges that exist today. This is the future of exchanges, and our goal is to become the new gold standard in the space.”

    About Devvio Inc.

    Devvio Inc. is a global pioneer in blockchain technology, renowned for its scalable, sustainable, and secure solutions. Its DevvX blockchain has been recognized as one of the most advanced infrastructures in the industry, changing the way that blockchain is integrated in all aspects of business.

    About DevvDigital

    DevvDigital is a forward-thinking digital solutions provider dedicated to leveraging blockchain technology for real-world impact. As the exclusive operator of DevvExchange, DevvDigital is committed to transforming the way people interact with digital assets, prioritizing user empowerment, security, and innovation.

    This press release contains forward-looking statements, including but not limited to statements regarding the anticipated benefits and future operations of DevvExchange under the license agreement with Devvio. These statements are based on current expectations, projections, and assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual outcomes to differ materially. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to, market conditions, regulatory changes, technological developments, and other unknown risks. DevvDigital assumes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect new information, events, or circumstances, except as required by law.

    TORONTO, Jan. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Ninepoint Partners LP (Ninepoint Partners) is pleased to announce the launch of two new series of Ninepoint Global Infrastructure Fund, being Series T and Series FT. As of January 16, 2025, Ninepoint Global Infrastructure Fund is now available in Series A, Series F, Series T, Series FT, Series I and Series D securities.

    The investment objective of Ninepoint Global Infrastructure Fund is primarily to maximize risk adjusted long-term returns and secondarily to achieve a high level of income. Ninepoint Global Infrastructure Fund focuses on achieving growth of capital through securities selection and pursues a long-term investment program with the aim of generating capital gains and seeks to provide a moderate level of volatility and a low degree of correlation to other asset classes through diversifying across a relatively concentrated group of global infrastructure stocks.

    “The Series T and Series FT are designed to provide investors with a greater amount of cash flow compared to other available series, making them an attractive option for those seeking a reliable source of investment income,” commented Jeff Sayer, Vice President & Portfolio Manager, Ninepoint Partners. “With a target annualized distribution of 6.0%, paid monthly, these series’ distributions are comprised of return of capital, net income, and capital gains, delivering a consistent income stream.”

    Ninepoint Partners also announced today it intends to terminate Ninepoint Carbon Credit ETF effective on or about March 28, 2025 (the Termination Date). Effective immediately, Ninepoint Carbon Credit ETF is closed to new purchases, however, investors can continue to trade ETF series units on Cboe Canada until they are delisted. Investors may also redeem or switch their mutual fund series units of Ninepoint Carbon Credit ETF up to the close of business on the Termination Date. Ninepoint Partners will waive any short-term trading fees for redemptions of units of Ninepoint Carbon Credit ETF prior to the Termination Date. Investors that still hold units of Ninepoint Carbon Credit ETF on the Termination Date will receive a cash payment for their units equal to the proportionate share of all property and assets of Ninepoint Carbon Credit ETF attributable to the applicable series of Ninepoint Carbon Credit ETF, which is expected to be the series net asset value per unit on the Termination Date multiplied by the number of units held.

    Ninepoint Partners will send a notice to each investor in Ninepoint Carbon Credit ETF regarding the termination. The ETF series units of Ninepoint Carbon Credit ETF are expected to be delisted from Cboe Canada, at the request of Ninepoint Partners, at the close of business on or about March 26, 2025.

  • MIL-OSI: Eos Energy Secures Cerberus Delayed Draw Term Loan Full Funding, Continuing U.S. Manufacturing Capacity to Strengthen America’s Energy Independence

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    TURTLE CREEK, Pa., Jan. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Eos Energy Enterprises, Inc. (NASDAQ: EOSE) (“Eos” or the “Company”), America’s leading innovator in designing, manufacturing, and providing zinc-based long duration energy storage systems sourced and manufactured in the United States, today announced the successful achievement of the third set of performance milestones previously agreed upon between Eos and an affiliate of Cerberus Capital Management LP (“Cerberus”) as part of Cerberus’s strategic investment in the Company. Successfully meeting these performance milestones allowed the Company to access the final $40.5 million of the Delayed Draw Term Loan (DDTL), fueling ongoing operations, U.S. production expansion, and the creation of an American energy storage powerhouse.

    “The Eos team is making measurable progress, consistently meeting critical operational targets and positioning the Company for profitable growth,” said Nathan Kroeker, Eos Chief Financial Officer. “With the term loan fully funded, combined with Department of Energy (DOE) loan guarantee first disbursement in December, Eos has a strong foundation and sufficient capital to continue implementing Project AMAZE. We’re executing our strategy to scale production into strong customer demand for long duration energy storage. Cash from customer projects now play an important role in funding working capital and our American-made system can play a critical role in America achieving energy independence.”

    The $210.5 million DDTL announced in June 2024 is now fully funded, driven by the Company consistently achieving key operational milestones related to the Company’s state-of-the-art manufacturing line, raw materials cost-out, Z3 technology performance improvement and orders backlog cash conversion. The Company surpassed its January raw materials cost-out target by 6% while delivering manufacturing cycle times below 10 seconds to further demonstrate continued operational efficiency and progress towards profitable growth.

    “Cerberus is ecstatic about the incredible progress made since our initial investment last year. Joe and team continue to fire on all cylinders, and Cerberus will continue to be all-in, helping Eos execute on their rapidly growing global pipeline and backlog,” said Nick Robinson, Cerberus Senior Managing Director and Eos Board Member. “With all the pieces now firmly in place to scale, 2025 and beyond is all about revenue growth, profitability and acceleration of global manufacturing capacity to meet exponential global demand. This demand is driven by a critical need for a long duration, non-flammable alternative to lithium at a time when the national security imperative could not be more important. With President Trump’s recent Executive Order, emphasizing American-made, and American-sourced, manufacturing to supporting America’s energy independence, Cerberus could not be more excited about partnering with Eos to build a large global platform. Cerberus views Eos as the “First Solar” of the battery space, further highlighting America’s ability to lead, innovate, and reclaim our energy independence.”

    About Eos Energy Enterprises

    Eos Energy Enterprises, Inc. is accelerating the shift to American energy independence with positively ingenious solutions that transform how the world stores power. Our breakthrough Znyth™ aqueous zinc battery was designed to overcome the limitations of conventional lithium-ion technology.

  • MIL-OSI: LPL Financial Welcomes Bruen Wealth Management

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    SAN DIEGO, Jan. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — LPL Financial LLC (Nasdaq:LPLA) announced today that father and son financial advisors William “Bill” Bruen, Jr., and Andrew Bruen have joined LPL Financial’s broker-dealer, aligned with existing firm Paradigm Partners. The Bruens reported serving approximately $1.3 billion in advisory, brokerage and retirement plan assets* and join LPL from UBS.

    The Bruen family has a long and distinguished history of providing investment advice and wealth management services in Morristown, N.J., dating back to 1922 with the establishment of family patriarch James Bruen’s practice. His son, William Bruen, Sr., joined the business in 1950, retiring in 2020 after 70 years of dedicated service, and now Bill and Andrew continue the family legacy, extending their services to third and fourth generations of clients.

    Bill, who served in the U.S. Navy prior to joining the family business, said the opportunity to work alongside his father and son has been his greatest blessing. Andrew shares that sentiment, noting that he interned at the family practice throughout high school and college and gained valuable early insight into the industry that accelerated his career.

    “For over a century, our practice’s guiding principle has been to provide clients with ‘a plan for today, tomorrow and generations to come,” Andrew said. “We want to empower individuals and families to build lasting legacies through steadfast wealth management backed by personal relationships.”

    Seeking freedom and flexibility in how they evolve the next chapter of the family business, the Bruens chose to move their firm to LPL. They are proud to launch their new independent practice, Bruen Wealth Management.

    “Our vision for this firm is a direct reflection of my father’s and grandfather’s goals, as we learned how the business should be operated from them,” Bill said. “As stewards of the practice, we value the autonomy to act in the best interests of our clients, outside of corporate directives. By going independent with LPL, and with an added layer of support from Paradigm, we control the legacy that our family has sustained over the past 103 years, which is diligent care of our practice and clients. It is a promising signal for the next 100 years of our firm.”

    The Bruens are highly active in their community. Bill serves on the board of the Foundation for Morristown Medical Center and is a member of the Washington Association of New Jersey. He is also chairman of the Brookfield Legacy Society and a Trustee Emeritus of the United States Naval Academy Foundation. Andrew has served as a volunteer at Morristown Medical Center in a variety of capacities, currently serving on the Brookfield Legacy Society Committee. He also serves on the board of the New Vernon Cemetery Association in New Vernon, N.J.

    Andrew Koltunowicz, Managing Partner at Paradigm Partners, said, “We are so pleased to welcome Bill and Andrew to Paradigm Partners. Their longstanding history in their community, commitment to clients, multigenerational wealth management expertise and focus on delivering personalized advice make them an ideal fit for our firm. We look forward to a long and successful partnership.”

    Scott Posner, LPL Executive Vice President, Business Development, said, “We extend a warm welcome to Bill and Andrew, and congratulate Paradigm on growing its network. We understand that successful advisors like the Bruens want the freedom to choose what suits their clients’ needs and the autonomy to shape and enhance their client relationships. We look forward to supporting their growth as they build on their family’s impressive legacy.”
