  • MIL-OSI: IoT Microcontroller Market to Reach USD 18.76 Billion by 2032 at 16.50% CAGR, Driven by Surge in Smart Device Adoption: AnalystView Market Insights

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    San Francisco, USA, July 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The global IoT Microcontroller Market is on a robust growth path, projected to reach a market size of USD 18,765.80 million by 2032, expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.50% during the forecast period. This rapid expansion is largely fueled by the ever-growing deployment of Internet of Things (IoT) devices across both consumer and industrial landscapes.

    IoT microcontrollers are compact, power-efficient chips that function as the brains of connected devices. These chips manage real-time operations, data processing, and communication between sensors, actuators, and networks. As the number of connected devices continues to grow exponentially, so does the need for smarter, faster, and more energy-efficient microcontrollers. From smartwatches and home appliances to industrial machinery and autonomous vehicles, IoT microcontrollers play a pivotal role in enabling seamless device intelligence. According to the OECD, the number of IoT connections globally surpassed non‑IoT connections in 2020, marking a pivotal shift toward smart, interconnected devices.

    Proliferation of Smart Devices and Systems- Primary Driving Forces Behind Market Growth

    One of the primary drivers propelling this market is the proliferation of smart devices and systems across virtually every sector. In the UK, Ofcom reports growth from 13.3 million IoT connections in 2016 to an estimated 39.9 million by 2024, driven by smart device proliferation. In the consumer space, applications such as smart homes, fitness trackers, and wearable health devices rely on microcontrollers to perform quick computations while conserving battery life. On the industrial side, microcontrollers are integral to smart factories, smart agriculture, and automated energy systems. These applications demand rugged, reliable chips that can function under a wide range of operating conditions.

    The increasing adoption of edge computing is another major catalyst. As businesses and developers move processing capabilities closer to the data source, there is a growing demand for microcontrollers that can handle localized, real-time processing without constant reliance on cloud infrastructure. This reduces latency, improves performance, and supports faster decision-making—particularly important for critical applications like industrial automation, autonomous systems, and healthcare diagnostics.

    Technological Advancements Pushing Innovation

    The IoT microcontroller space is witnessing continuous innovation aimed at increasing processing power, improving wireless communication, and extending battery life. Manufacturers are focusing on integrating support for the latest communication standards, including 5G, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), NB-IoT, and LoRaWAN. These features are crucial for seamless device-to-device communication and for supporting massive IoT deployments in smart cities and industrial environments.

    Another key area of focus is low-power architecture. With many IoT devices operating on small batteries or energy-harvesting solutions, minimizing power consumption is a top priority. Modern microcontrollers are now equipped with advanced sleep modes, efficient wake-up cycles, and intelligent power management features that help extend device life significantly.

    Moreover, the integration of AI and machine learning at the edge is pushing the development of smarter microcontrollers capable of performing data analysis directly on the device. This is particularly useful in applications such as predictive maintenance, facial recognition, and anomaly detection, where real-time insights are critical.

    Industrial IoT as a Core Growth Segment

  • MIL-OSI: Remittix Confirms Multi-Chain Compatibility With Ethereum, Solana in Wallet Beta Release

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    NEW YORK, July 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Remittix (RTX), the emerging name in decentralized finance, has now officially announced multi-chain support with Ethereum and Solana for its crypto-to-fiat wallet in the soon-to-be-released beta version later this Q3 2025.

    The update points towards Remittix‘s mission to become a universal payments gateway by supporting leading blockchain networks and enabling instant real-world usability of cryptocurrency.

    The Remittix wallet was designed to bridge the gap between cryptocurrency and mainstream finance. Once launched, users will be able to send, receive and convert crypto assets like ETH, SOL, BTC, and DOGE to bank accounts anywhere in the world in the absence of centralized intermediaries.

    The Ethereum and Solana support of the wallet offers broad interoperability throughout the DeFi ecosystem. With two of the busiest smart contract chains, Ethereum and Solana, offering unmatched developer activity and scalability, and now, through Remittix, customers can send these assets into real-world payments cheaply and fast.

    The beta wallet, first hinted at in a live demo YouTube video, features instant crypto exchanges, non-custodial architecture and direct payouts to banks globally. Its simple interface is tailored to both seasoned DeFi users and crypto newcomers looking for low-gas-fee cryptocurrency alternatives.

    Momentum Gaining as Presale Approaches Soft Cap

    Remittix is nearing its $18 million soft cap, having so far raised in excess of $16 million of presale funds. More than 550 million RTX tokens have been sold and at the live price of $0.0811, experts are still adding RTX to their lists of the best tokens to buy right now.

    Incentives for early investors are:

    • A live 50% token bonus
    • Additional rewards for early-stage investors
    • A growing belief that RTX can deliver long-term value

    While Remittix hype continues to build, what sets it apart is its utility in real life, specifically in:

    • Cross-border remittances
    • Underpenetrated and underbanked financial markets
    • Offering a working solution to crypto-to-fiat transactions

    Outlook: Crypto-to-Fiat Innovation for Everyday Use

    By being compatible with both Solana and Ethereum, Remittix reasserts itself as a cross-chain DeFi project on the cusp of mass adoption. It is a direct answer to growing interest in crypto that addresses real-life problems, offering low gas fee crypto projects that are easy to use, fast and secure.

    As the beta launch draws near, Remittix continues to gain traction among traders seeking the next 100x crypto and upcoming crypto projects with practical utility.

  • MIL-OSI: Music Licensing, Inc. and Pro Music Rights Featured in Bloomberg News and Los Angeles Times Amid Industry Spotlight on Licensing Fees

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    NAPLES, FL, July 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Music Licensing, Inc. (OTC: SONG) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Pro Music Rights, were recently featured in Bloomberg News and the Los Angeles Times in connection with national coverage on the rising costs and growing complexity of music licensing for restaurants and bars. The coverage highlights Pro Music Rights as a leading innovator among performance rights organizations (PROs), positioned to modernize an industry long dominated by legacy structures.

    Industry Coverage Underscores Growing Demand for Reform

    The July 9, 2025 Bloomberg News article, “Restaurants, Bars Say They’re Getting Squeezed by Rising Music Licensing Costs,” and the July 11, 2025 Los Angeles Times article, “Restaurants, bars consider turning off music as licensing fees skyrocket,” detailed the operational challenges faced by small and mid-sized businesses as they navigate a fragmented licensing environment. In both features, Pro Music Rights was profiled as a scalable, technology-forward alternative that is reshaping performance rights licensing through transparency and accessibility.

    Redefining the Licensing Model with Transparency and Efficiency

    Established in 2018, Pro Music Rights has introduced a modernized, business-friendly licensing framework that aligns cost with clarity and usage:

    • Flat Monthly Rate: A consistent $50 per location simplifies budgeting and ensures affordability across business segments.
    • Usage-Based Structure: Fees are capped at $0.01 and assessed only on the percentage of music represented by Pro Music Rights, eliminating arbitrary overcharges.
    • Clear, Accessible Terms: The company avoids hidden costs, exclusivity arrangements, and convoluted agreements, promoting long-term trust and compliance.

    This approach offers a differentiated value proposition in a sector historically criticized for opacity and inconsistent enforcement.

    Market Share, Artist Representation, and Platform Integration

    Pro Music Rights commands an estimated 7.4% share of the U.S. performance rights market, representing a growing catalog of more than 2.5 million works, including music composed with the use of artificial intelligence. Its artist roster includes major names such as A$AP Rocky, Wiz Khalifa, Pharrell, Nipsey Hussle, 2 Chainz, Gucci Mane, Fall Out Boy, Lil Yachty, Soulja Boy, Trinidad James, Lil Uzi Vert, MoneyBagg Yo, Sauce Walka, Larry June, Young Dolph, and many others.

    The catalog is licensed to a wide range of global platforms, including TikTok, iHeartMedia, Triller, Napster, Vevo, 7Digital, and others, reinforcing the company’s commercial relevance and strategic licensing reach.

    Diversified Intellectual Property Portfolio

    Beyond its performance rights operation, Music Licensing, Inc. maintains a diversified and revenue-generating intellectual property portfolio. Assets include royalty interests tied to Listerine® Mouthwash and musical works performed by globally recognized artists such as The Weeknd, Justin Bieber, Kanye West, Elton John, Rihanna, Lil Nas X, Miley Cyrus, XXXTentacion, Lil Wayne, Mike Posner, DaBaby, and others.

    This asset mix reflects a strategic focus on acquiring, monetizing, and scaling high-value IP with recurring income potential.

    Commitment to Regulatory Engagement and Structural Reform

    Music Licensing, Inc. and Pro Music Rights continue to work closely with the U.S. Copyright Office and relevant industry stakeholders to advocate for reforms that foster transparency, accountability, and competitive balance in the music licensing ecosystem. This engagement underscores a broader vision for long-term sustainability and operational excellence across all facets of music rights management.

  • MIL-OSI: Youtech Survey Reveals Traditional Search Still Dominates Local Discovery, AI Adoption Growing with Key Challenges Ahead

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    • The report revealed consumers trust Google for local business search (93.2%), while AI seeks to improve accuracy and address human touch concerns.
    • Youtech’s data highlights opportunities for businesses to optimize across both traditional and AI search surfaces.

    LISLE, Ill., July 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Youtech, a leading global full-service digital marketing agency, today announced the findings of its latest consumer survey, shedding light on how people search for local businesses online. The research indicates that while AI assistants are gaining traction, traditional search engines like Google remain the primary tool for local business discovery, highlighting specific areas where AI needs to improve to gain wider adoption.

    “Our data clearly shows that consumers value reliability and comprehensiveness when searching for local businesses,” said Wilbur You, CEO of Youtech. “While the buzz around AI is undeniable, the numbers revealed a critical need for AI assistants to enhance their accuracy, real-time information, and integration with familiar tools to truly compete with traditional search for local businesses.”

    Key Survey Findings:

    Consumers continue to predominantly rely on traditional search engines for discovering local businesses. A significant majority, 93.2% of respondents, indicated they trust Google over AI for this purpose. Looking ahead, this preference seems likely to persist, as the report notes that AI is not yet replacing traditional search, though consumer interest is growing fast.

    The survey highlights that Restaurants & Food (88%), Home & Home Improvement (55.3%), and Automotive (42%) are the most frequently searched local business categories. Despite the growing presence of AI, its adoption for local business searches is still relatively low, with 56.7% of consumers having never utilized an AI assistant for this specific purpose. For those who have, usage is infrequent, with 27.3% having done so in the last week.

    The most critical factors identified for AI to compete with traditional search for local business discovery were more accurate, up-to-date info (39.1%) and better integration with maps (15%). This emphasizes a foundational trust deficit, as 93.2% of respondents would trust traditional Google Search more to find or evaluate a local business. Consumers prioritize the accuracy of information and trust when choosing between AI and traditional search tools.

    A key concern about using AI for local business searches is missing the human touch (31.7%), followed by outdated or incorrect information (28.3%). Consumers value reviews, hours, photos, and service details most for local business searches. Furthermore, real-time information, such as real-time booking, is considered extremely important and a deal-breaker, if missing, by 9% of respondents.

    “Local search is pivoting, and our findings emphasize that while AI is a powerful emerging force, the bedrock of consumer trust remains firmly rooted in accuracy and relevance,” said Michael Norris, CMO of Youtech. “Businesses that proactively refine their presence across both traditional search engines and emerging AI platforms will be best positioned to capture the attention and loyalty of today’s consumers.”

    The survey was conducted independently by Youtech with 150 consumers from June 26–28, 2025. Full results can be found here: https://www.youtechagency.com/2025-ai-local-search-consumer-report/
