    WASHINGTON, June 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ibex (NASDAQ: IBEX), a leading global provider of business process outsourcing (BPO) and AI-powered customer engagement technology solutions, is proud to announce a $25,000 donation to Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) as part of ibex CaresTM, the company’s global philanthropic program. This contribution supports WWP’s mission, which focuses on the total well-being of post-9/11 wounded, ill, or injured veterans. From PTSD treatments to essential long-term care, the nonprofit is empowering warriors to thrive – physically, mentally, and financially – for a lifetime.

    WWP began in 2003 by delivering backpacks filled with comfort items to the bedsides of wounded warriors – along with a powerful promise to stand by them as they healed and rebuilt their lives. Today, WWP is the nation’s leading veterans service organization, providing essential lifelines to warriors, their families, and caregivers. Thanks to support from generous Americans and organizations, WWP can serve warriors and their families at no cost to them.

    “On behalf of ibex and our many veterans, we are proud to make this donation to help support our nation’s wounded veterans,” said ibex Chief People Officer Paul Inson. “Supporting the mission of Wounded Warrior Project fits perfectly with our core values of compassion and community service. We believe it’s not just a responsibility but a privilege to give back to those who have given so much for our country.”

    The donation is part of ibex Cares, which supports charitable organizations across ibex’s operational regions. ibex Cares also encourages employees to volunteer and donate to local causes, promoting meaningful connections and driving positive change in communities worldwide.

    “We must never forget the cost of freedom,” said Brea Kratzert Todd, WWP Vice President of Business Development. “Supporters like ibex make it possible for Wounded Warrior Project to provide life-changing programs and be there for warriors throughout their lifetime.”

    As ibex continues to grow, the company remains dedicated to expanding its charitable impact and nurturing a culture of giving back across its global operations.

    “I applaud our team for their amazing generosity and compassion,” said Christy O’Connor, Chief Legal Officer at ibex. “I am personally involved with Wounded Warrior’s Battalion West, where my dog has been a therapy dog to wounded warriors for six years and helped save numerous lives. Giving is in our DNA and is just one more thing that makes ibex special.”

  • MIL-OSI: Wix Further Expands into Vibe Coding with Acquisition of Base44, a Hyper-Growth Startup that Simplifies Web and App Creation with AI

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    Base44 delivers effortless, code-free digital creation through an intuitive, conversational AI experience, which is expected to expand Wix’s reach to new audiences worldwide

    NEW YORK— Today Wix.com Ltd. (Nasdaq: WIX), the leading SaaS website builder platform globally1, announced its acquisition of Base44, an AI-powered platform that enables anyone to create fully-functional, custom software solutions and applications using natural language, without the need for traditional coding. The acquisition adds a powerful new arm to Wix’s AI portfolio, expanding its suite of intelligent solutions that empower anyone to build and grow online. 

    The tech landscape is undergoing a major transformation as vibe coding gains momentum, shifting creation from manual development to intent-driven software development. This new approach allows people to simply express what they want to build, while intelligent agents do the heavy lifting. As demand grows for tools that turn ideas into reality through conversation and intuition rather than code, Wix is working to make the digital world more accessible and creative than ever before. Read CEO Avishai Abrahami’s blog about his vision and the way Wix is shaping this future here.

    Base44’s unique approach offers a fully automated, chat-based interface that manages technical details behind the scenes, from databases and authentication to deployment – removing the need for third-party integrations or manual setup. This groundbreaking approach opens the door for anyone, regardless of technical expertise, to create production-ready, scalable applications quickly and effortlessly. With proven traction in the market, including B2B partnerships with leaders like eToro and SimilarWeb, Base44 is a powerful addition to the Wix AI portfolio – furthering the company’s mission to make innovation accessible to creators and businesses worldwide.

    “This acquisition marks a pivotal milestone in Wix’s commitment to transforming creation online,” said Avishai Abrahami, CEO and Co-founder of Wix. “Maor and his team at Base44 bring cutting-edge technology, strong market penetration, and visionary leadership that seamlessly align with Wix’s dedication to enabling users at all levels of expertise to express their intent while intelligent agents manage execution. Maor’s exceptional talent and innovative mindset will reinforce Wix’s mission to push the boundaries of AI-driven creation and  accelerate the evolution of intuitive, intelligent tools that redefine how digital experiences are built and enjoyed.”

    “I honestly can’t think of a better fit. Wix is probably the only company that can help Base44 achieve the scale and distribution it needs while maintaining, if not accelerating, our product velocity,” said Maor Shlomo, CEO of Base44. “Our market is massive. It has the potential to replace entire software categories by enabling people to create software instead of buying it. Wix’s DNA – its customer obsession, innovation, and speed – perfectly aligns with ours, and its scale will catapult Base44 forward at exactly the right time.”

    Base44 will continue to operate as a distinct product and business, maintaining its unique identity and momentum while benefiting from the scale and support of Wix.

    Transaction Terms

    Under the terms of the agreement, Wix acquired Base44 for initial consideration of approximately $80 million plus additional earn-out payments paid through 2029 predicated upon certain performance metrics.

    We expect this transaction to have an inconsequential contribution to 2025 bookings and revenue. We expect to incur approximately $25 million in retention bonus payments paid to Base44 employees in 2025 as part of the above initial consideration paid on the transaction, which will be excluded from non-GAAP and free cash flow (FCF) results.

  • MIL-OSI: NexQloud Closes $2.3M Pre-Seed Round, Surpasses 1,850 NanoServers Deployed, Outpaces Traditional Data Centers in Efficiency—and Pursues FedRAMP for Public Sector Expansion

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    PALO ALTO, Calif., June 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NexQloud, a startup in decentralized cloud computing infrastructure, today announced the successful close of its $2.3 million Pre-Seed funding round under a Reg CF exemption. The raise, completed with fully audited financials, marks a significant milestone and confirms market appetite for decentralized computing solutions that reward individuals and organizations for contributing their hardware to the cloud.

    The company now enters a new phase of growth, backed by a 12-month runway and plans to launch a $5 million Seed Round to accelerate proof of market fit for its Distributed Kubernetes Service (DKS) and expand into three additional cloud service verticals designed to serve the growing demand from AI organizations, SaaS providers, and DevOps teams.

    “This funding validates what we’ve always believed — that the future of cloud computing is decentralized, energy efficient, and eco-friendly,” said Mauro Terrinoni, CEO of NexQloud. “With over 1,850 NanoServers live, we’ve demonstrated not only demand but global scalability. Now, we’re focused on unlocking enterprise and federal adoption with even greater ambition.”

    1,850+ NanoServers Now Deployed Across 10 Countries

    Since its last milestone announcement of 1,250 units, NexQloud has rapidly expanded to over 1,850 NanoServers across ten countries, including the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Belgium, Australia, Vietnam, Switzerland, Germany, India, and Jamaica. This marks a 48% growth since its last update, demonstrating strong contributor momentum and global adoption.

    Built on mobile CPU architecture, each NanoServer operates with just 12% of the energy consumed by traditional rackmount servers. The result: 88% energy savings with identical computational performance. These energy-efficient devices operate 24/7 with minimal cooling or infrastructure overhead, creating a sustainable, community-powered alternative to centralized data centers.

    To date NexQloud’s Distributed Compute Platform (DCP) now comprises:

    • 54,820 virtual CPUs (vCPUs) — powering compute-intensive enterprise workloads
    • 158.83 terabytes of RAM — supporting large-scale, memory-driven applications
    • 849 AI-capable GPUs — enabling real-time machine learning, inference, and analytics

    NexQloud’s DCP Matches Enterprise Data Center Power—Without the Real Estate

    To contextualize the scale of its current infrastructure, NexQloud’s DCP now delivers the performance equivalent of a mid-sized enterprise-grade data center, comprising approximately 70 traditional server racks. The platform can support between 500,000 and 750,000 concurrent users for web-based applications, while simultaneously powering tens of thousands of containerized workloads across its Distributed Kubernetes Service (DKS).

    In addition, NexQloud’s GPU infrastructure can support hundreds of parallel AI inference, training, and rendering tasks, enabling enterprise-scale AI computing at a fraction of typical cost. Remarkably, this level of compute was achieved without building a single data center— and with new devices coming online daily, NexQloud’s DCP will continue to grow in scale and resilience.

    Eliminating Infrastructure Costs, Saving Energy, Reducing Emissions

    If built traditionally, this infrastructure would require an estimated $7.5 million in capital expenditures. NexQloud eliminates these costs entirely by leveraging decentralized ownership and contributor-operated devices, with the potential to deliver:

    • Annual electricity savings: Over 6.94 million kWh, equal to $832,550 in avoided energy costs
    • CO₂ emissions avoided: Approximately 2,895 metric tons per year, equivalent to removing 640 cars from the road
    • Environmental impact: Comparable to planting 133,000 mature trees annually

    “This is more than cloud infrastructure — it’s a major shift in how compute is produced, powered, and rewarded,” added Terrinoni. “With the theoretical ability to add millions of devices, we are poised to do for computing what the internet did for information —decentralize it, distribute it, and redefine it.”

    Pursuing FedRAMP to Unlock Government Cloud Contracts

    Lastly, the company announces its intent to pursue FedRAMP certification to unlock opportunities with U.S. government agencies. As one of the largest consumers of traditional cloud infrastructure, the U.S. government represents a high-value target. NexQloud’s pursuit of FedRAMP is a strategic move to access public sector contracts and expand into one of the most regulated and defensible segments of the cloud market.

    About NexQloud

    NexQloud is redefining cloud infrastructure by combining blockchain, AI, and a global network of energy-efficient NanoServers into a scalable, secure, and environmentally responsible computing platform. Through its NXQ token economy and Distributed Kubernetes Service (DKS), NexQloud offers individuals and enterprises an inclusive alternative to centralized hyperscale providers.

  • MIL-OSI: Unframe Launches Synergy: The AI-Native Command Center for Enterprise IT Ops to Automate and Optimize Existing Tech Stacks

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    CUPERTINO, Calif., June 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Unframe announces the launch and general availability of Synergy, the AI-native command center for enterprise IT operations. Purpose-built to help IT teams reduce mean time to resolution (MTTR), eliminate alert fatigue, and boost operational resilience, Synergy layers generative AI across the tools organizations already rely on, including ServiceNow, Splunk, Jira, New Relic, Confluence, and more. Synergy automates manual tasks and enables natural language Q&A to resolve issues more quickly, allowing teams to focus on more strategic initiatives.

    “Synergy turns noise into insight,” says Shay Levi, CEO of Unframe. “IT Ops teams are drowning in alerts, switching between tools, and losing time on manual triage. Synergy uses AI to connect the dots, so they can focus on strategic impact instead of scattered signals.”

    Synergy solves the gap in IT Ops efficiency by integrating with existing platforms to enable unprecedented clarity, speed, and unification. By filtering operational noise to deliver clear actions, Synergy transitions teams to smarter, easier, and more productive IT Ops workflows in days.

    The Urgent Need for AI in IT Ops: Alert Fatigue and Inefficiency

    Synergy’s launch comes as IT Ops emerges as the most impactful enterprise AI use case, according to Unframe’s 2025 Enterprise AI Trends Report. The research highlights that 63% of enterprise leaders cite operational efficiency as a top driver for AI adoption. They want to streamline the complex web of existing tools, without adding or needing to rip-and-replace – 90% cite integration with existing stacks as essential.

    In today’s enterprise tech stacks, IT leaders, managers, and teams face:

    • Tools that collect mountains of data – but don’t talk to each other
    • Dashboards that overload and confuse instead of surfacing insights
    • Manual triaging and root cause analysis that slow down resolutions
    • Upcoming and critical incidents that aren’t noticed until they cause big problems
    • Low visibility into full-stack performance and efficiency

    Every minute of downtime and inefficiency translates to real financial and reputational cost. Yet 48% of enterprise leaders are still held back by budget and ROI concerns, citing high implementation costs as a barrier. That’s where Synergy comes in with the power to understand, not just notify, and deliver real efficiencies immediately after implementation.

    Unify IT Ops with an AI-Native Command Center

    Synergy’s AI-native command center unites the existing IT Ops tech stack with a smart layer of automated management across monitoring, ticketing, logging, and knowledge systems. By streamlining simple tasks, surfacing clear insights, and quickly explaining root causes, Synergy delivers natural language reports and recommends next steps – not just alerts.

    “With Synergy, your team no longer has to dig through 10 tools to understand an incident. It’s like having an AI operations analyst on call 24/7,” says Alissa Gilbert, Solutions Engineer at Unframe.

    Synergy already helps IT teams across industries including financial services, telecom, healthcare, and manufacturing maximize tech stack value and optimization. Smashing silos between tools and teams, Synergy easily integrates the entire stack for connected, explainable, and actionable insights that get smarter with every incident. Synergy’s AI-driven powers include:

    • Real-Time Correlation between every tool to streamline alerts, incidents, runbooks, logs, and knowledge base content across your stack, automatically
    • AI-Powered Root Cause Analysis to quickly analyze patterns, surface similar past incidents, and generate natural language summaries
    • Natural Language Queries: Ask questions about incident reports and RCAs and get accurate answers instantly
    • Proactive Monitoring that surfaces risks and anomalies before they escalate for preventive action, not reactive triage

  • MIL-OSI: Unframe Launches Synergy: The AI-Native Command Center for Enterprise IT Ops to Automate and Optimize Existing Tech Stacks

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    CUPERTINO, Calif., June 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Unframe announces the launch and general availability of Synergy, the AI-native command center for enterprise IT operations. Purpose-built to help IT teams reduce mean time to resolution (MTTR), eliminate alert fatigue, and boost operational resilience, Synergy layers generative AI across the tools organizations already rely on, including ServiceNow, Splunk, Jira, New Relic, Confluence, and more. Synergy automates manual tasks and enables natural language Q&A to resolve issues more quickly, allowing teams to focus on more strategic initiatives.

    “Synergy turns noise into insight,” says Shay Levi, CEO of Unframe. “IT Ops teams are drowning in alerts, switching between tools, and losing time on manual triage. Synergy uses AI to connect the dots, so they can focus on strategic impact instead of scattered signals.”

    Synergy solves the gap in IT Ops efficiency by integrating with existing platforms to enable unprecedented clarity, speed, and unification. By filtering operational noise to deliver clear actions, Synergy transitions teams to smarter, easier, and more productive IT Ops workflows in days.

    The Urgent Need for AI in IT Ops: Alert Fatigue and Inefficiency

    Synergy’s launch comes as IT Ops emerges as the most impactful enterprise AI use case, according to Unframe’s 2025 Enterprise AI Trends Report. The research highlights that 63% of enterprise leaders cite operational efficiency as a top driver for AI adoption. They want to streamline the complex web of existing tools, without adding or needing to rip-and-replace – 90% cite integration with existing stacks as essential.

    In today’s enterprise tech stacks, IT leaders, managers, and teams face:

    • Tools that collect mountains of data – but don’t talk to each other
    • Dashboards that overload and confuse instead of surfacing insights
    • Manual triaging and root cause analysis that slow down resolutions
    • Upcoming and critical incidents that aren’t noticed until they cause big problems
    • Low visibility into full-stack performance and efficiency

    Every minute of downtime and inefficiency translates to real financial and reputational cost. Yet 48% of enterprise leaders are still held back by budget and ROI concerns, citing high implementation costs as a barrier. That’s where Synergy comes in with the power to understand, not just notify, and deliver real efficiencies immediately after implementation.

    Unify IT Ops with an AI-Native Command Center

    Synergy’s AI-native command center unites the existing IT Ops tech stack with a smart layer of automated management across monitoring, ticketing, logging, and knowledge systems. By streamlining simple tasks, surfacing clear insights, and quickly explaining root causes, Synergy delivers natural language reports and recommends next steps – not just alerts.

    “With Synergy, your team no longer has to dig through 10 tools to understand an incident. It’s like having an AI operations analyst on call 24/7,” says Alissa Gilbert, Solutions Engineer at Unframe.

    Synergy already helps IT teams across industries including financial services, telecom, healthcare, and manufacturing maximize tech stack value and optimization. Smashing silos between tools and teams, Synergy easily integrates the entire stack for connected, explainable, and actionable insights that get smarter with every incident. Synergy’s AI-driven powers include:

    • Real-Time Correlation between every tool to streamline alerts, incidents, runbooks, logs, and knowledge base content across your stack, automatically
    • AI-Powered Root Cause Analysis to quickly analyze patterns, surface similar past incidents, and generate natural language summaries
    • Natural Language Queries: Ask questions about incident reports and RCAs and get accurate answers instantly
    • Proactive Monitoring that surfaces risks and anomalies before they escalate for preventive action, not reactive triage
    • Smart Incident Workflows that don’t just automate, but recommend next steps (e.g., runbook, incident, ticket), while flagging delays or ownership gaps
    • AI-Unified Reporting for a single view into live incidents, system performance, and operational KPIs to meet SLAs consistently

    Synergy’s full-stack coverage comes with Unframe’s complete security and compliance alignment, fully compliant with SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and GDPR and deployable on-prem, in cloud, or hybrid. Outcome-based pricing means enterprises don’t lock in their subscription until they’ve experienced Synergy in action – automating their actual IT Ops environments with immediate impact.

  • MIL-OSI New Zealand: Property Market – Sales activity lifts but listings keep property prices in check – Cotality

    Source: Cotality (Formerly CoreLogic)

    Property sales activity in New Zealand continued to strengthen in May, with volumes holding above average levels for a third consecutive month, according to Cotality’s June Housing Chart Pack.
    Sales volumes in May, measured across both private deals and real estate agents, were 16% higher than in the same month last year. This is the 24th rise in the past 25 months.

    The total number of sales at 8,218, was also about 5% above the 10-year May average, marking the third month in a row where activity has exceeded ‘normal’ levels.

    Cotality Chief Property Economist Kelvin Davidson said the ongoing lift in sale volumes points to improving confidence in the market.
    “Property sales have been gradually trending upwards for around two years now, and activity is back at normal levels, or even slightly above. It’s not a boom, but it’s clear that confidence is slowly returning, undoubtedly supported by falling mortgage rates.”
    However, for-sale listings remain high, with the number of new listings coming forward in recent weeks still ticking over at a solid pace.
    “New listings have generally tracked in line with typical seasonal patterns this year, though April’s extended holiday break did cause a temporary dip. As the market now enters the traditional winter lull, listing activity is likely to remain muted until it picks up again in Spring,” he said.
    Mr Davidson noted that stronger sales volumes have started to slightly reduce total stock levels in recent weeks.
    “While it has started to come down, the total number of properties listed on the market is still 20% above the five-year average, and that’s putting a lot of the negotiating power in buyers’ hands.”
    “Most areas are now showing a decline in total properties listed for sale compared to the same time in 2024, although Canterbury and Otago haven’t quite joined the club just yet,” he said.

    Total listings, change from equivalent period last year

    “While we’re starting to see listings come down, they’re still well above average in many markets. That means price growth is likely to remain contained in the short term,” he concluded.
    Highlights from the June 2025 Housing Chart Pack include:

    New Zealand’s residential real estate market is worth a combined $1.64 trillion.

    The CoreLogic Home Value Index shows property values across New Zealand edged down -0.1% in May. Over the three months to May, there was also a -0.1% dip in median property values across NZ.
    The total sales count over the 12 months to May is 85,395.
    Total listings on the market were 29,443 in May. The total number of properties listed on the market remains elevated, although the seasonal fall for new listings flows means that agreed sales have just started to eat into stock levels a little in the past few weeks.
    The pace of rental growth remains subdued, with net migration having fallen a long way from its peak, and the stock of available rental listings on the market still elevated.
    Gross rental yields now stand at 3.8%, which is the highest level since 2015-16.
    Inflation is back in the 1–3% target range, and after May’s 0.25% cut, the OCR is now down to 3.25%.
    The Chart of the Month shows Reserve Bank figures, with the average rate being paid on the existing stock of fixed loans currently about 5.9%, but prevailing rates are now about 1%-point lower than that figure.

  • MIL-OSI Asia-Pac: Government’s response to temporary stay granted by Court about decision to remove Aggressive Construction Company Limited from register

    Source: Hong Kong Government special administrative region

    Government’s response to temporary stay granted by Court about decision to remove Aggressive Construction Company Limited from register 
    The BA refused the registration renewal application of ACCL on May 22, 2025 and decided to remove its name from the register of general building contractors on June 20. ACCL has appealed against the decision and applied for a stay of execution of the decision. The Court of First Instance of the High Court today granted an interim-interim stay of execution of the decision. The hearing of the appeal and application for stay of execution is tentatively scheduled for August 26 and 27.
     
    The spokesman for the DEVB said, “As the Court has granted an interim-interim stay of execution of the decision, ACCL will not be removed from the register of general building contractors on June 20. During the period pending further hearings, if there are still construction activities on the project sites undertaken by ACCL, the project owners concerned will act in accordance with the contracts and continue to monitor the construction sites and the performance of the contractor. If the contractor’s performance fails to meet the contractual requirements, the project owners will handle the matter in accordance with the contract and reserve the right to take follow-up actions. The BD and project owners will also step up monitoring and surprise inspections to safeguard site safety. In fact, since the performance of ACCL in respect of the public works project of the Chai Wan Government Complex was far below the contractual requirements, the Government as the project owner has terminated the contract in accordance with the contractual mechanism and taken over the construction site on June 15. The Government will endeavour to arrange in the near term for a new contractor to take over and finish the remaining works.”

  • MIL-OSI Asia-Pac: Govt set to replace water main

    Source: Hong Kong Information Services

    The Water Supplies Department (WSD) will work around the clock to replace a 400-metre-long steel water main by early July, that was believed to be the source of the bitumen sediments found in the fresh water at Queen’s Hill Estate and Shan Lai Court.

    Secretary for Development Bernadette Linn told legislators today that the Government is highly concerned about the water incident at Queen’s Hill. Upon receiving the incident reports at the end of May, the WSD and the Housing Department (HD) formed a joint working group to probe the incident and formulate remedial measures.

    The WSD has cleaned the water mains under its management and maintenance 11 times, while the HD has cleaned water pipes and water tanks under its purview six times and three times respectively.

    The HD has also installed 22 screen filters at the water inlet of each building and the estates.

    In addition, the WSD keeps collecting water samples from the estates for testing. So far, all samples have complied with the Hong Kong Drinking Water Standards.

    Ms Linn noted that about 700 enquiries have been made to the 24-hour hotline since its set-up on June 7. Furthermore, the WSD has received over 1,500 requests for flushing water meters through community channels.

    Such channels involved the street counters and home visits organised by District Council members, the three district committees and the Care Teams.

    The WSD has completed the flushing of water meters within one to two days. Currently, most of the residents reported an improvement in water quality and follow-up action is not required.

    The WSD believes that the black sediments in the fresh water originated from a steel water main at the upstream water supply network at Ping Che Road. The 400-metre-long water main uses bitumen as an inner lining that serves as a protective coating.

    Over the past week, the WSD has explored the approach of using exposed temporary water mains to replace the steel water main.

    It collaborated with the Development Bureau, the contractor, the Transport Department, Police and the North District Office to formulate traffic arrangements.

    Through collective efforts, the WSD will immediately start the project and work around the clock to complete the temporary water mains by early July, when the specified section of bitumen-lined steel water mains will decommission.

    The WSD will also strive to replace the exposed temporary water mains with a permanent underground water mains by the end of this year.

    Ms Linn pointed out that the WSD has ceased applying bitumen lining on fresh water mains since 2005. Of the water pipes that still contain this type of lining, only about 230km are fresh water distribution mains, representing about 3.9% of the city’s total fresh water distribution mains.

    Apart from installing over 1,000 screen filters in the related water supply network, the WSD is reviewing the necessity of installing additional screen filters at suitable locations, she added.

  • MIL-OSI USA: From Puddles to Pollinators: Rain Gardens are Transforming Connecticut Landscapes

    Source: US State of Connecticut

    Rain can dampen summer activities, but it’s also vital to the health of our landscapes – from replenishing groundwater to sustaining plants and crops.

    Modern infrastructure and excess water from rain don’t always work perfectly in sync. Our homes, roads, parking lots, and buildings block water from soaking into the ground, leading to more flooding and erosion.

    Mike Dietz ’94 (CLAS), ’01 MS, ’05 Ph.D., a senior extension educator and director of the Connecticut Institute of Water Resources, offers Connecticut residents some ideas to better handle Mother Nature’s wet presence.

    Rain gardens offer a natural, beautiful solution, helping to manage stormwater while supporting cleaner water across Connecticut. UConn Extension is leading efforts to expand rain gardens statewide through resources including an app, a free online course, workshops, and hands-on support.

    A rain garden is a shallow, landscaped area that captures and filters stormwater using plants, mulch, and ground covers. In residential neighborhoods, this reduces the amount of runoff that leaves the property in stormwater pipes, where it is sent untreated to local streams.

    Because Connecticut is part of the Long Island Sound watershed, every rain garden also helps protect the Sound, restore local waterways, and strengthen ecosystems. These gardens filter pollutants from stormwater before it reaches rivers and the Sound, using nature’s own cleaning processes.

    Dietz has spent years working with team members, developing rain garden resources for homeowners and communities.

    “I like the hands-on aspect of Extension water programs where I can see tangible things happening,” Dietz says. “The research advances the science, but I find the greatest impact working with people to get practices implemented.”

    Dietz remembers when UConn installed its first rain garden at the Towers dorms in 2004. Today, there are 30 rain gardens and 70 green infrastructure systems, including permeable pavements, across campus.

    Last year, Dietz worked with students to install a rain garden near the UConn Dairy Bar. Amanda Stowe ’26 (CAHNR) and Grace Wright Goodison ’27 (CLAS, Neag) were part of that team that applied for and won a UConn Change grant for the project.

    “I researched land management at UConn, especially with all our rain and having to walk through a huge puddle every time I left my dorm,” Wright Goodison says. “Native plants are important for our soil.”

    “This is important. People are concerned with flooding, and rain gardens help,” says Stowe.

    Both students began the project during class and used the undergraduate Change Grant to install the new garden.

    The site already had a catch basin, but they disconnected stormwater drains from part of a nearby building so the runoff now flows into the rain garden instead. Both students called it a great learning opportunity in water quality, pollinators, and native plants. A sign now helps Dairy Bar visitors learn about rain gardens and the specific plants growing there.

    “The goal was to take rainwater from the building and parking lots and disconnect it from Roberts Brook, which is already impaired,” Dietz says. “The rain garden is functioning as designed. And for pollinators, it’s a huge benefit – this was a barren landscape for them otherwise.”

    This summer, UConn Extension’s CLEAR program is partnering with towns across Connecticut to install more rain gardens as part of municipal stormwater efforts. Step-by-step training and resources are available for anyone interested in creating one. The Rain Garden Design, Installation, and Maintenance Course offers six hours of free online learning across seven modules. While geared toward landscapers, contractors, and municipal staff, homeowners can take the course too.

    Likewise, UConn CLEAR’s Rain Garden app puts helpful tools at your fingertips, including video tutorials, a sizing calculator, soil drainage tips, and plant recommendations. It’s designed for residents but works just as well for businesses and municipalities.

    “Rain gardens are about more than just water,” Dietz says. “They’re pollinator habitats too. And if you pick the right spot, the only real cost is your time, labor, and the plants. It’s not a lot of work to implement.”

    Planting a rain garden is a small step that makes a big impact on Connecticut’s water and communities. Easy to install and low maintenance, rain gardens are an ideal way to replace puddles with pollinators and beauty.

    This work relates to CAHNR’s Strategic Vision area focused on Fostering Sustainable Landscapes at the Urban-Rural Interface.

  • MIL-OSI: Valour Launches Four New ETPs on Spotlight Stock Market: Mantra (OM), Tron (TRX), Stellar (XLM), and Tether Gold (XAUT)

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    • Valour Expands Nordic Footprint with Four New Listings: Valour, a subsidiary of DeFi Technologies, has launched SEK-denominated ETPs for Mantra (OM), Tron (TRX), Stellar (XLM), and Tether Gold (XAUt) on Sweden’s Spotlight Stock Market, broadening investor access to diversified digital asset exposure.
    • Exposure to Emerging Protocols and Tokenized Gold: These new ETPs provide regulated access to a range of assets—from tokenized gold to real-world asset protocols—serving growing investor demand for both traditional and next-generation blockchain applications.
    • On Track Toward 100 ETPs by Year-End: With these additions, Valour now offers over 70 digital asset ETPs across leading European exchanges, reinforcing its leadership in the market and accelerating progress toward its goal of 100 ETPs by the end of 2025.

    TORONTO, June 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — DeFi Technologies Inc. (the “Company” or “DeFi Technologies”) (Nasdaq: DEFT) (CBOE CA: DEFI) (GR: R9B), a financial technology company bridging the gap between traditional capital markets and decentralized finance (“DeFi”), is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, Valour Inc., and Valour Digital Securities Limited (together, “Valour“), a leading issuer of exchange traded products (“ETPs“) has launched four new SEK-denominated ETPs on the Spotlight Stock Market in Sweden:

    • Valour Mantra (OM) SEK ETP – ISIN: CH1108679908
    • Valour Tron (TRX) SEK ETP – ISIN: CH1108679916
    • Valour Stellar (XLM) SEK ETP – ISIN: CH1108679973
    • Valour Tether Gold (XAUt) SEK ETP – ISIN: CH1108679981

    These new listings further broaden Valour’s presence in the Nordics and strengthen its mission to deliver secure, transparent, and regulated access to a diverse range of digital assets through traditional brokerage platforms.

    About the Newly Listed ETPs

    Valour Mantra (OM) ETP
    Mantra is a leading protocol focused on real-world asset tokenization and compliant DeFi infrastructure. As institutional interest in tokenized financial products grows, OM plays a critical role in bridging traditional finance with on-chain applications.

    Valour Tron (TRX) ETP
    Tron is a high-performance, layer-1 blockchain known for its high throughput, low fees, and strong presence in DeFi and entertainment-focused applications. With billions of daily transactions and one of the largest stablecoin networks, Tron remains a top digital asset by market capitalization.

    Valour Stellar (XLM) ETP
    Stellar is a blockchain optimized for global payments and remittances. Its consensus protocol and low-cost transactions make it ideal for cross-border financial infrastructure, particularly in emerging markets and institutional settlement use cases.

    Valour Tether Gold (XAUt) ETP
    Tether Gold (XAUt) is a token backed by physical gold, offering the security of a hard asset with the accessibility of a digital token. The ETP provides investors with exposure to tokenized gold via a regulated, exchange-listed product, appealing to those seeking a hedge against inflation and fiat currency risk.

    Each product can be purchased and sold through standard brokerage platforms, offering streamlined access for both retail and institutional investors. The management fee is 1.9% for OM, TRX, and XLM, while Tether Gold (XAUt) features a fee of 0.45%.

    Executive Commentary

    Johanna Belitz, Head of Nordics at Valour, commented:
    “The launch of these four new products reflects our continued commitment to Nordic investors. We’re seeing increased demand for diversified exposure—not only to large-cap crypto assets but also to gold-backed tokens and emerging protocols like Mantra. With the world’s first ETP on Tether Gold, we’re bridging traditional gold investment with the transparency and efficiency of blockchain. Our goal is to deliver that access in a simple, familiar, and fully regulated format.”

    Elaine Buehler, Head of Products at Valour, added:
    “These new ETPs represent a major leap forward, not only offering access to leading digital assets like Tron and Stellar but also bridging real-world financial systems with next-gen blockchain protocols. What makes them extraordinary is their ability to unlock new markets—Mantra’s tokenized real-world asset focus is revolutionizing compliance in DeFi, while Tether Gold offers a digital-native solution for investors seeking the stability of gold as a hedge against inflation.”

    With these new listings, Valour has now surpassed 70 digital asset ETPs—offering the most comprehensive lineup in Europe—and remains on pace to reach its goal of 100 ETPs by the end of 2025. These products are currently listed on major European exchanges including Spotlight (Sweden), Börse Frankfurt (Germany), and Euronext (Paris and Amsterdam), with continued expansion planned in additional global markets.

  • MIL-OSI: IT Teams are Losing Visibility as Tech Cost Pressures Mount, According to Flexera 2025 State of ITAM Report

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    ITASCA, Ill., June 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Flexera, the global leader in technology spend and risk management, today released the Flexera 2025 State of ITAM Report, which reveals a concerning decline in complete visibility across the technology stack – down to 43% from 47% year-over-year. Yet, as pressure mounts to optimize costs, the collaboration of IT asset management (ITAM) with cloud (44%) and FinOps (38%) teams is on the rise, suggesting that ITAM teams are increasingly working across organizational silos to address comprehensive visibility challenges, increase financial accountability and drive operational efficiency.

    Flexera’s annual report surveys global IT professionals to explore how the evolution of ITAM, FinOps, security, software asset management (SAM) and hardware asset management (HAM) teams influences the value they deliver. It also examines IT investment trends across public, hybrid, and SaaS technologies.

    “Complete visibility across IT assets is foundational to every good technology decision,” said Becky Trevino, Chief Product Officer at Flexera. “The fact that it’s slipping at a time when organizations are under intense pressure to rationalize costs is a real concern. You can’t optimize what you can’t see and without clear insight into the entire technology stack, it’s nearly impossible to eliminate waste, ensure compliance, or make cost-effective investment decisions. This year’s report showcases why the collaboration between ITAM and FinOps is no longer optional—it’s a strategic imperative.”

    Highlights from the latest Flexera State of ITAM Report include:

    • Minimizing SaaS sprawl is an increasing imperative: Thirty-five percent of respondents say SaaS waste has increased over the past year, suggesting that the financial impact of underutilized SaaS subscriptions is taking a toll on budgets. In addition, SAM professionals are doubling down on SaaS oversight, with 59% actively tracking usage and 56% rightsizing contracts and subscriptions to eliminate unnecessary spend.  
    • Software use rights take the spotlight: The report also highlights a dramatic rise in the challenge of managing software use rights—now ranked as the number one concern for SAM teams, up from sixth place just a year ago. This surge is largely attributed to the growing complexity of cloud-based licensing models and the rapid migration of enterprise resources to cloud environments.
    • Audits still plague organizations (and their bottom line): Nearly half (45%) of surveyed organizations report spending over $1 million on software audits over the past three years, a figure one percentage point less than 2024. Twenty-three percent of organizations spent more than $5 million on audits in 2025, a slight increase from 2024. The findings suggest that the intricacies of software use rights and the continued shift to the cloud are keeping audit defense high on the agenda of IT teams.
    • Microsoft continues audit streak: Half of respondents said Microsoft audited their organization in the past three years. The tech giant has remained at the top of this list for the past several reports, followed closely by IBM (37%). There was a slight increase in audits reported from SAP (32%) and ServiceNow (21%) compared to last year’s findings. Adobe (24%) remained unchanged, but Oracle decreased from 31% to 24% and Salesforce dropped from 25% to 20% year over year.

    This year’s findings underscore the urgent need for smarter, more agile SAM strategies as organizations strive to balance innovation with fiscal responsibility.

    “The role of ITAM is shifting from operational to transformational,” said Phil Perfetti, senior product marketing manager at Flexera. “While visibility into cloud licenses is gradually improving, the complexity of managing hybrid IT environments is also increasing, and any serious blind spots are a problem that modern organizations can no longer afford.”

    The full survey results are available in the Flexera 2025 State of ITAM Report, which explores the thinking of 506 global IT professionals across industries and context areas.

    • Minimizing SaaS sprawl is an increasing imperative: Thirty-five percent of respondents say SaaS waste has increased over the past year, suggesting that the financial impact of underutilized SaaS subscriptions is taking a toll on budgets. In addition, SAM professionals are doubling down on SaaS oversight, with 59% actively tracking usage and 56% rightsizing contracts and subscriptions to eliminate unnecessary spend.  
    • Software use rights take the spotlight: The report also highlights a dramatic rise in the challenge of managing software use rights—now ranked as the number one concern for SAM teams, up from sixth place just a year ago. This surge is largely attributed to the growing complexity of cloud-based licensing models and the rapid migration of enterprise resources to cloud environments.
    • Audits still plague organizations (and their bottom line): Nearly half (45%) of surveyed organizations report spending over $1 million on software audits over the past three years, a figure one percentage point less than 2024. Twenty-three percent of organizations spent more than $5 million on audits in 2025, a slight increase from 2024. The findings suggest that the intricacies of software use rights and the continued shift to the cloud are keeping audit defense high on the agenda of IT teams.
    • Microsoft continues audit streak: Half of respondents said Microsoft audited their organization in the past three years. The tech giant has remained at the top of this list for the past several reports, followed closely by IBM (37%). There was a slight increase in audits reported from SAP (32%) and ServiceNow (21%) compared to last year’s findings. Adobe (24%) remained unchanged, but Oracle decreased from 31% to 24% and Salesforce dropped from 25% to 20% year over year.

    This year’s findings underscore the urgent need for smarter, more agile SAM strategies as organizations strive to balance innovation with fiscal responsibility.

    “The role of ITAM is shifting from operational to transformational,” said Phil Perfetti, senior product marketing manager at Flexera. “While visibility into cloud licenses is gradually improving, the complexity of managing hybrid IT environments is also increasing, and any serious blind spots are a problem that modern organizations can no longer afford.”

    The full survey results are available in the Flexera 2025 State of ITAM Report, which explores the thinking of 506 global IT professionals across industries and context areas.

  • MIL-OSI: Houston American Energy Corp. Announces $2.37 Million Registered Direct Offering

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    HOUSTON, TX, June 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Houston American Energy Corp. (NYSE American: HUSA) (the “Company”) today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement with an institutional investor (the “SPA”) for the purchase and sale of an aggregate of 223,762 shares of common stock (or pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof) at a purchase price of $10.60 per share (or pre-funded warrant in lieu thereof) in a registered direct offering (the “Offering”). 

    The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of this offering are expected to be approximately $2.37 million, before deducting the placement agent’s fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company currently intends to use the net proceeds of approximately $2.1 million from the offering for general corporate purposes. The transaction is expected to close on or about June 20, 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

    The registered direct offering is being made pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-282778) previously filed by the Company and declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 4, 2024. A final prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus describing the terms of the proposed offering will be filed with the SEC and will be available on the SEC’s website located at http://www.sec.gov. Electronic copies of the final prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus may be obtained, when available, by contacting Univest Securities, LLC at info@univest.us, or by calling +1 (212) 343-8888.

    Placement Agent Agreement

    On June 17, 2025, in conjunction with the SPA, the Company entered into a Placement Agency Agreement (the “Placement Agency Agreement”) with Univest Securities, LLC to act as the sole placement agent (the “Placement Agent”) in connection with the Offering. Pursuant to the Placement Agency Agreement, the Placement Agent is entitled to a fee equal to an aggregate of 8.0% of the proceeds received by the Company in the Offering and reimbursement of the Placement’s reasonable travel and other out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable fees, costs and disbursement of its legal counsel, in an amount not to exceed an aggregate of $10,000.

    Equity Purchase Agreement Deferral

    The Company and the purchaser named in the SPA (the “Purchaser”) had previously had ongoing discussions about entering into an equity purchase agreement (the “ELOC Agreement”), which they have decided not to execute at this time. However, if the Company reconsiders the ELOC Agreement and enters into it with the Purchaser, it would likely provide that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth therein, (particularly the closing of the previously announced Share Exchange Agreement dated February 20, 2025, between the Company and the members of Abundia Financial, LLC (“Abundia”)), the Company would have the right, but not the obligation, to sell to the Purchaser up to $30,000,000 of shares (the “Purchaser Shares”) of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) from time to time over the 24-month term of the ELOC Agreement. When last discussed by the parties, the price paid by the Purchaser for each share of Common Stock at each closing (each, a “Closing”) was expected to be approximately 96% of the lowest daily volume-weighted average price of the Common Stock during the three trading days following a purchase notice. Based upon market conditions at that time, the Company and the Purchaser also discussed that upon closing under the ELOC Agreement, which was expected to occur after the Company’s closing of the previously described transaction with Abundia, the Company would potentially issue a number of shares of restricted Common Stock commensurate with the size of the ELOC Agreement as a commitment fee upon filing a New York Stock Exchange Supplemental Listing Application, and an additional number of shares of Common Stock commensurate with the size of the ELOC Agreement upon the earlier of (i) a prepayment advance against a commitment or (ii) the effectiveness of a registration statement as declared by the Commission. The foregoing terms of the ELOC Agreement, including the number of Purchaser Shares and the number of commitment shares, would be subject to any resumed negotiations between the Company and the Purchaser and are subject to change based upon market conditions.

    This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor will there be any sales of such securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such jurisdiction. Copies of the prospectus supplement relating to the registered direct offering, together with the accompanying base prospectus will be filed by the Company and, upon filing, can be obtained at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
