  • MIL-OSI Russia: Muscovites can place an order for discounted meals through the EMIAS.INFO mobile app

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    You can now place an order for subsidized meals at a milk distribution point (MDP) not only on the portal Mos.ru, but also in the mobile application “EMIAS. INFO”. It is possible to choose a pick-up point, a schedule for receiving products and place an order for several children at the same time. This was reported by Anastasia Rakova, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Social Development.

    “The EMIAS.INFO mobile app has become an indispensable digital assistant for millions of residents of the capital. We have expanded its functionality, and now the main Moscow medical app has the ability to place orders for subsidized meals. The procedure has become much more convenient – all information about the ordered meals for children is displayed to the parent in the service. And most importantly, there is no longer a need to place an order individually for each child, since it is possible to specify several children at once. Access to the service via smartphone will allow families to order food sets from the milk kitchen even more conveniently and quickly,” said Anastasia Rakova.

    In the section “Services for you” – “Milk kitchen” you can order free food and choose a convenient milk distribution point, frequency and schedule for receiving products. After that, a QR code of the current order is generated to receive the set at the point.

    In the EMIAS.INFO application, city residents can also find all the important information about the history of orders for subsidized meals: current and processed orders, their numbers, statuses, periods of receipt, composition of food packages, as well as the name, schedule and operating mode of milk distribution points.

    Subsidized meals are provided to pregnant women, children under three years of age (nursing mothers of babies under six months), as well as children from large families under seven years of age, children with chronic diseases under 15 years of age, and disabled children.

    Parents of children registered with a city polyclinic or pregnant women registered with a women’s consultation center can receive food packages if they have permanent registration in the capital and a valid compulsory medical insurance policy issued in Moscow.

    You can submit an application electronically on the mos.ru portal using the service “Application for receiving food at the milk kitchen” and a one-time visit to a local doctor to obtain permission to independently place orders on the portal or in the application. For city residents who have previously confirmed their preferential category, submitted an electronic or paper application and received free meals based on medical reports, the ordering service will be automatically available in the EMIAS.INFO application and on the mos.ru portal.

    Today, there are more than 200 MRPs operating in Moscow. They are open daily from 06:30 to 15:00 with a break from 12:30 to 13:00.

    Moscow has been digitalizing its healthcare system for over 10 years. The basis of this process is a single digital platform, which is being jointly developed by the Moscow Social Development Complex and the city Department of Information TechnologyIt allows for personalized care of each patient at all stages – from diagnosis and treatment to follow-up.

  • MIL-OSI Africa: Government must move to ensure that US funding cuts do not affect South Africa’s Research Excellence, says committee chair


    Download logo

    The Chairperson of the Select Committee on Education, Sciences and the Creative Industries, Mr Makhi Feni, has called on the Department of Higher Education to be proactive in plugging the gap left by the US cuts in grant funding that occurred earlier in 2025.

    Mr Feni said a deliberate drive is needed, even if it means going on tour abroad to mobilise resources for research purposes. “The grant funding impact was massive and at a time when South Africa found itself operating in a fiscally constrained environment. We must not allow a situation where community-based research programmes suffer and get aborted due to this decision,” he said.

    The Minister of Higher Education, Dr Nobuhle Nkabane, had informed the committee that work to address this issue is being done. In addition, the government had opted for a collaborative approach, as cuts affected programmes administer by the departments of Health and of Science and Technology. Minister Nkabane said a technical team has been set up to coordinate and collate the affected programmes.

    Mr Feni said the committee welcomes the news that the Minister of International Relations and Cooperation is contributing to resource mobilisation. “We would appreciate if all these efforts yield results. Our institutions are research intensive and that is one area we excel in and could not lose momentum. The committee is looking forward to receiving the report on the sector-wide impact of the funding cuts,” Mr Feni said.

    Minister Nkabane led a strong departmental delegation to present the department’s annual performance and strategic plans.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Gorky Park, the GES-2 Culture Center, and VDNKh: the Get to Know Moscow portal has a selection of favorite places for Moscow youth

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    On the eve of Youth Day in Russia, the portal “Learn Moscow” and the project participants “Youth of Moscow” compiled a selection of favorite places of the capital’s youth. It included Gorky Park, VDNKh, the GES-2 Culture House, the multi-format space “Youth of Moscow” and other sites. You can view the selection and read interesting facts about each place at website.

    “This rating is based on the real preferences of young Muscovites – aged 18 to 35. Together with the “Youth of Moscow” project, we found out where people most often go for the atmosphere, communication and new impressions. Initially, the list included about 50 places – from parks and cultural centers to historical corners of the city. After analysis, we selected 10 most popular locations. The result is a selection of places that are especially loved by young people. Both Muscovites and those who are just getting to know the capital will be able to find something interesting for themselves,” the press service of the city said.

    Department of Information Technology.

    More than 200 people took part in the survey — students, active participants of the project “Youth of Moscow”. Each of them was asked to tell about the places where they especially like to walk in company, where they most often go for solitude, about what spaces are associated with study, what is important when choosing a place to relax in Moscow and what kind of leisure is closer to them.

    The selection of favorite venues of the capital’s youth opens with Gorky Park – one of the symbols of Moscow, a popular recreation area and a unique complex that unites the architecture of different eras on its territory. It opened in 1928 and became the world’s first park of a new type, which combined the functions of a space for leisure, sports and cultural events. Almost 30 years later, in 1957, it hosted participants of the VI World Festival of Youth and Students from 131 countries. Today, Gorky Park hosts large-scale city events, festivals, exhibitions and concerts, attracting millions of Muscovites and tourists. This place is often mentioned by lovers of walking and cycling.

    The selection also includes VDNKh. This place is especially popular with those who prefer to relax in the fresh air. In 1935, the All-Union Agricultural Exhibition began to grow on the territory of the city suburbs, the main goal of which was to demonstrate not only the accomplished successes of various branches of the economy, but also to show the prospects of the bright future of all Soviet citizens planned by the government. Over the decades of its existence, the exhibition changed its appearance, name, and purpose. Now it is a complex with an area of 325 hectares with historical pavilions, arches, museums, ponds, parks, alleys, fountains, flower beds and sculptures.

    In addition, the selection included the GES-2 Culture Center. Many respondents called it one of the most memorable places they had visited recently. The central electric station of the city tram (GES-2) is a unique example of industrial architecture of the early 20th century, transformed into a modern cultural space. The station was conceived as a real industrial giant of its time with a design capacity of at least 15 thousand kilowatts, designed to provide energy to city trams. Its architectural appearance combined industrial style and motifs of ancient Russian architecture, and the hallmark of the building was a tent-shaped tower with a clock. The station operated for 100 years until it was decommissioned in 2006 due to equipment wear and tear.

    In 2015, restoration work began on the building. Specialists returned it to its original appearance and simultaneously improved the territory. This project has become the world’s largest example of transforming an industrial facility into a cultural space in recent years. The new space combines exhibition halls, a library, a cinema and a concert hall, workshops, studios and artist residences, shops, a restaurant and a café, a playground and auditoriums for public events.

    Another popular place is the multi-format space “Youth of Moscow”. It was created as part of the city project of the same name. Here you can book a coworking space, a media studio, halls for events, training sessions and other areas for free. This is the place that most respondents associate with youth.

    The “Youth of Moscow” project started five years ago, and during this time the team has organized more than five thousand events – from career forums and competitions to creative festivals and educational programs. Many of them help city residents find employment and start their own business. More than three thousand initiatives of young Muscovites in various fields received support from the project.

    The selection of favorite places of young Muscovites also included Zaryadye Park, Kitay-gorod, Arbat, Vorobyovy Gory, Chistye Prudy and Khodynskoye Pole Park.

    “Get to Know Moscow”— a joint project of departments information technology, cultures, cultural heritage, education and science. The interactive guide contains, for example, photographs and descriptions of over 3,500 buildings, monuments, historical sites, over 290 walking routes and information about over 320 historical figures. Users also have access to a mobile application “Get to Know Moscow”.

    You can learn more about why microchips are being put on books in city libraries, how to walk around the capital with a personal tour guide, or plan a trip around the city and country in a couple of clicks from the final episode of the popular science film “Moscow in Digital”.

    Moscow is a city of youth. The capital offers wide opportunities for its development, creative self-expression, comfortable life and interesting leisure. The corresponding infrastructure is being created here, thousands of events of different scale and focus are held.

    In honor of the upcoming Youth Day, themed events will be held at more than 250 city venues. The flagship event will be the festival, which will take place on June 28 and 29 at Bolotnaya Square. You can find more detailed information and a map with all city events on the portal “Youth of Moscow”.

    The creation, development and operation of the e-government infrastructure, including the provision of mass socially significant services, as well as other services in electronic form, correspond to the objectives of the national project “Data Economy and Digital Transformation of the State” and the regional project of the city of Moscow “Digital Public Administration”.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: KRSU has launched a pilot implementation of the Polytechnic University course “Fundamentals of Project Activities”

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: Peter the Great St Petersburg Polytechnic University – Peter the Great St Petersburg Polytechnic University –

    A joint event for students and teachers of FADIS, ETF and the Faculty of Economics was held at the Kyrgyz-Russian Slavic University. The Polytechnic University held a seminar on the experience of implementing the mass course “Fundamentals of Project Activities” and the prospects for its replication at KRSU. Everything ended with a quiz on the basics of project management. The seminar was held by Anton Ambrazhey, Senior Researcher of the International Academic Competence Center “Technologies of an Intelligent Enterprise” of the SPbPU Digital Engineering School. This event is the first step towards another joint educational project between SPbPU and KRSU, planned for implementation within the framework of the “Roadmap” for the development of cooperation between the two universities.

    The seminar examined the methodology of project-based learning, the experience of introducing a project-based approach into the educational process, with an emphasis on developing students’ skills in teamwork, critical thinking and independent solution of practical problems in combination with the use of project tools in professional activities.

    At the quiz, teams of teachers competed against students. Participants demonstrated their knowledge in the field of project activities and creative thinking.

    The event generated great interest, the participants noted the importance of the knowledge they had gained. It all ended with a constructive conversation with potential mentors of student projects and the development of specific steps to introduce the new course into the educational process at KRSU already in the 2025-26 academic year.

    We believe that today’s meeting is only the beginning of a long journey. If our course finds a response, and a team of like-minded people appears at KRSU, then next spring we will launch a pilot project together, opening new horizons for project activities at KRSU, – Anton Ambrazhey summed up the work.

  • MIL-OSI Africa: How Africa is building a better ecosystem for entrepreneurs


    Download logo

    The Future Studio incubator in Cotonou has developed a successful coaching programme, propelling four startups to success. The Beninese innovation center is now expanding, while business support organizations across West Africa are increasing their collaboration.

    The NTF V FastTrackTech project has nurtured these developments. The ITC project brought together major players from Benin, Niger and Mali to share their experiences and build together a stronger, more inclusive entrepreneurial ecosystem.

    Future Studio: a catalyst for innovation and entrepreneurship in Benin

    Since opening a year ago in Cotonou, the Future Studio innovation center has aimed to propel Beninese innovation and digital entrepreneurship. As a partner of the Epitech school and a member of the African Education & Innovation Group, the innovation center fosters the growth of young, innovative companies, providing structured support and networking. With the support of the NTF V FastTrackTech project, the Future Studio has set up a support programme tailored to Benin’s digital ecosystem.

    ‘We can’t claim to support entrepreneurs without being supported and empowered ourselves. Thanks to the recommendations of the NTF V FastTrackTech project expert, we have gained in vision and methodology,’ said Future Studio project manager Yoann Agbo. ‘This is what enabled our Start program to take shape and achieve its first successes. We’re very proud today to see ideas become solid projects as teams grow.’ 

    After six months in the incubation program, four startups have made significant progress: they have perfected their pitch, established commercial collaborations, and intensified their discussions with potential investors. One gained international visibility by taking part in Gitex Africa.

    ‘Our intention is to provide ongoing support for the startups we have supported, and we are actively engaged in preparing a second cohort of entrepreneurs. At the same time, we plan to develop a targeted offering for more mature companies seeking accelerated growth or diversification of their offerings,’ said Yoann.

    This expertise recently earned Future Studio a contract with telecom operator MTN Benin to take charge of the operational side of a new incubation program. ‘Since supporting the NTF V FastTrackTech project, Future Studio has shown what it can do. This new partnership testifies to the trust placed in our activities,’ he added.

    Better support for African entrepreneurs

    Like the Future Studio, business support organizations walk with entrepreneurs at every stage of their journey, contributing to job creation and more sustainable, inclusive economic development. NTF V FastTrack Tech believes the creation of synergies makes African organizations more efficient by optimizing their resources.

    The project initiated an exchange session on 30 April between the Bussiness Support Structures Network of Niger (Réseau des Structures d’Appui du Niger – RESAEN), the Federation of Innovative Business Support Organizations in Benin (Fédération des Structures d’Appui à l’Entrepreneuriat Innovant – FedSAEI) and the National Council of Incubators of Mali (Conseil National des Incubateurs du Mali – CNSIM).

    Rabia Moussa is vice-president of RESAEN and co-founded the Développe-les organization in Niger.

    ‘Regular exchanges and lasting cooperation create a network of mutual support between BSOs, strengthening the entrepreneurial ecosystem as a whole. Financing issues are often at the heart of concerns,’ she said. ‘In this respect, RESAEN shared its experience and roadmap.’

    The session concluded with the formalization of several ideas and recommendations, including the need to set up a working group dedicated to the question of financing, the monitoring of new opportunities and the prospecting of new partners. Rabia also stressed the need for BSOs to clarify the roles and commiments of their governance members, so that tasks are properly assigned.

    ‘I can only encourage the holding of an annual general meeting with the publication of an activity report.

    By also adopting transparent and participative governance practices, support structures can consolidate their internal functioning and increase their impact in the service of a flourishing entrepreneurial ecosystem,’ she said.

    The nascent collaboration between Benin, Niger and Mali is just the first step towards continental synergy.

    ‘Tomorrow, the dialogue could even be extended to Burkina Faso. It is this growing synergy that will enable African talent to flourish and contribute fully to the continent’s economic development,’ she added.

    About the project

    The Netherlands Trust Fund V (NTF) program (July 2021 – June 2025) is based on a partnership between the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the International Trade Centre. NTF V supports SMEs in the digital technology and agribusiness sectors in Benin, Ivory Coast, Ethiopia, Ghana, Mali, Senegal and Uganda. Its ambition is to contribute to an inclusive and sustainable transformation of agri-food systems partly through digital solutions, to improve the international competitiveness of local tech start-ups and to support the implementation of the export strategy of IT&BPO companies.

  • MIL-OSI Asia-Pac: President Lai leads industrial listening tours to New Taipei Industrial Park, embodying the spirit of Taiwan to achieve a new economic miracle.

    President Lai Ching-Te led a delegation, including Presidential Secretary-General Pan Men-An, Presidential Office Spokesperson Kuo Ya-Hui, Executive Yuan Secretary-General Kung Ming-Hsin, Minister of Economic Affairs Ku Jyh-Huei, and the administrative team, on an “Industrial Listening Tour” at New Taipei Industrial Park on May 2. The delegation engaged in in-depth exchanges with important representatives from the region’s electronics, textile, medical equipment, HVAC, and defense industries.
    On April 3, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that he would impose a 32% reciprocal tariff on Taiwan. President Lai immediately convened industry representatives to his official residence on April 5 to listen to their concerns and officially announced the government’s response measures to the public on the afternoon of April 6, which specifically demonstrated the government’s determination to overcome difficulties with the industry. In the face of US tariff policy, the government has launched the first round of negotiations and continues to negotiate based on the three principles of ensuring national interests, maintaining Taiwan’s industrial development space, and protecting Taiwan’s industrial ecosystem.
    To respond to industry concerns, President Lai and Premier Cho have conducted nearly 20 listening tours. The Executive Yuan has approved a special bill allocating NT$410 billion, including NT$93 billion to support impacted industries and NT$100 billion to subsidize Taiwan Power Company for stable electricity supply, easing operational burdens on business.
    At the forum, New Taipei Mayor Hou Yu-Ih and Legislators Su Chiao-Hui, Wu Ping-Jui, Lin Shu-Fen, Lee Kuen-Cheng and Hung Mong-Kai attended to show their support for local industries. Industry representatives raised concerns such as ensuring a stable electricity supply, promoting the integration of SMEs into the semiconductor supply chain, shortening medical device review processes, and implementing ESCO energy-saving technologies for net-zero transformation. President Lai responded that deep energy-saving through ESCOs not only improves energy efficiency but also qualifies for tax credits of equipment investment. Minister Kuo noted that the ministry has budgeted for deep energy-saving projects that offer financial incentives based on actual savings, potentially reducing business power costs by 8-12%. Secretary-General Kung added that the government’s A+ Program encourages innovative R&D and allows companies to hire full-time professionals to support their projects.
    President Lai pointed out that according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) forecast, amid the turbulent international economic situation, the economic growth rate of most countries has declined, but Taiwan has increased its forecast from 2.7% to 2.9%, demonstrating the international community’s high recognition of Taiwan’s economic prospects and the high resilience of Taiwan’s industries. He highlighted that Taiwan has consistently grown stronger through adversity –this is the spirit of Taiwan and the hallmark of its industries.
    In conclusion, the President reaffirmed that the government will adhere to the principle of “Speed and order in balance” to advance negotiations in the face of Trump’s tariff policy. It should not only focus on speed but also ensure the overall interests of the country and promote the three major industrial strategies for the future development of Taiwan’s industries, including:
    1. Foresight and sustainability through smart innovation;
    2. Competing in space and exploring the oceans;
    3. Rooted in Taiwan, expanding globally, strengthening ties with the U.S., and promoting Taiwan to the world.
    The government is committed to driving industrial AI adoption, advancing marine industry development, transitioning to diverse green energy sources reinforcing power system resilience, and pursuing regional economic integration through bilateral investment agreements with democratic partners. With the enduring spirit of Taiwan, we are fully capable of building a resilient economy and achieving a new economic miracle together.

  • MIL-OSI: Online Payday Loans Same day No Credit Check Guaranteed Approval : Radcred Launches Instant Payday Loans for Emergency Financial Needs

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    Glendale, California, June 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Radcred has launched a digital-first lending platform to meet the rising demand for online payday loans, offering same-day funding and soft credit checks for borrowers historically overlooked by traditional banks. The new system aims to simplify access to small-dollar financing by matching applicants with licensed lenders through a fully secure online process. This platform responds to growing consumer needs for fast, flexible, and transparent lending especially in emergencies involving $400–$500.

    Rising Demand for Online Payday Loans in the U.S.

    According to the Federal Reserve, more than 60% of Americans say they wouldn’t be able to cover a $400 emergency expense without borrowing, using credit, or selling assets. This gap in short-term financial security has driven millions to seek alternative financing, with online payday loans becoming a key solution.

    Search volume for terms like “$500 loan”, “same day loan”, and “instant loan approval” has risen dramatically in 2024 and 2025, particularly among gig workers, hourly employees, and individuals with credit scores under 580. These users are looking for simple, fast funding without the long wait times or rigid requirements of traditional credit systems.

    Digital platforms like Radcred’s are helping fill this gap by enabling qualified borrowers to apply for online payday loans without visiting a storefront lender or submitting extensive paperwork.

    Radcred Launches Online Payday Loan Platform with Same Day Options

    Radcred’s lending platform connects borrowers directly to a network of licensed, state-compliant payday lenders. With soft inquiry checks and same-day loan processing, the platform is built for speed and accessibility. Unlike traditional banks, Radcred offers options for those with poor or limited credit histories.

    The platform supports applications from users across all 50 states, focusing on underserved groups such as part-time workers, gig economy professionals, and those recovering from financial setbacks. Through encrypted processing and smart-matching technology, Radcred ensures quick turnaround times often funding requests within hours.

    Borrowers can secure a $255 payday loan, a $500 loan no credit check loans or another small-dollar amount based on the offers provided by Payday lenders. 

    How Radcred’s Online Payday Loan Process Works

    Radcred’s loan process is built around simplicity and speed:

    1. Submit Application: Applicants fill out a short form with basic personal and financial information. No paperwork or faxing required.
    2. Get Matched: Radcred uses a proprietary algorithm to match users with licensed lenders based on state regulations, eligibility, and loan request.
    3. Review and Accept: Once matched, applicants can compare offers, review the APRs, fees, and terms, and accept the best loan.

    The process involves no hard credit pull, helping protect the borrower’s FICO score. All offers are presented upfront, with clear repayment timelines and fee disclosures. The platform works seamlessly on both desktop and mobile devices, ensuring broad accessibility for users in need of instant loans.

    • Age 18 or older
    • Monthly income (employment or benefits)

    What Makes Online Payday Loans Different from Installment Loans?

    While both are forms of short-term financing, payday loans are typically due in full on the borrower’s next payday, making them ideal for immediate, one-time expenses. Installment loans, on the other hand, are repaid over a set number of months with fixed payments.

    Common Uses for Online Payday Loans

    People apply for online payday loans for a wide range of urgent expenses:

    • Emergency medical bills
    • Rent shortfalls
    • Utility disconnections
    • Car breakdowns
    • Unexpected travel
    • Childcare or school-related costs

    Radcred’s platform supports same day loan decisions, helping users address financial shortfalls without delay. The goal is to provide immediate help while maintaining lender transparency and data security.

    • Same-day processing without collateral

    • Adhere to lending laws by jurisdiction
    • Disclose repayment terms clearly before agreement

  • MIL-OSI China: Autonomous driving innovation fuels AI reach worldwide

    On the outskirts of Beijing, a self-driving bus navigated effortlessly through traffic, demonstrating China’s rapidly advancing autonomous driving technology.

    Developed by UISEE, a Beijing-based unicorn, this solution is now expanding beyond Chinese capital’s streets and beginning to make its mark on the global robotaxi industry.

    These “AI drivers” have spread to countries like Singapore, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Saudi Arabia and Qatar, penetrating industries including energy, heavy industry, pharmaceuticals and chemicals, said Wu Gansha, CEO of UISEE.

    The unmanned buses operate at over 20 airports worldwide, forming a fleet of more than 1,000 autonomous vehicles that have collectively covered 5.8 million kilometers.

    These busy shuttles reflect the rising influence of Chinese companies like UISEE in the autonomous driving sector, as they secure increasing numbers of international contracts thanks to their reliable and innovative technology.

    In addition to buses, UISEE’s diverse fleet includes unmanned retail vehicles, patrol cars, cleaning vehicles, towing tractors and heavy-duty trucks, varying in size and function.

    Equipped with the latest solid-state LiDAR, the autonomous cars achieve 360-degree, blind-spot-free vision, according to Wu. While Tesla relies mainly on vision-based technology, Chinese tech firms are rolling out a multi-sensor data-driven approach globally.

    GOING GLOBAL

    UISEE is not alone in this global push. Last month, Pony.ai, a Guangzhou-based robotaxi service provider, announced a strategic partnership with Dubai’s transport authority.

    Under the partnership, Pony.ai’s robotaxi fleet is scheduled to commence test operations in 2025, with plans to start fully autonomous commercial services in 2026 in Dubai.

    “This partnership is integral to our goal of transforming 25 percent of all journeys in the city into autonomous trips by 2030, reinforcing Dubai’s position as a global leader in autonomous mobility and innovation,” said Ahmed Bahrozyan, CEO of Public Transport Agency at Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA).

    To date, Pony.ai, a partner of ride-hailing platform Uber, has obtained Robotaxi licenses in countries such as the United States, the Republic of Korea and Luxembourg.

    Last July, during the signing ceremony of the memorandum of understanding between Pony.ai and Luxembourg authorities, the country’s Minister of the Economy, Lex Delles, described the agreement as “a significant opportunity to advance Luxembourg’s technical capabilities in the smart mobility sector.”

    “We are extending our proven-in-China integrated capabilities of autonomous driving, encompassing R&D, mass production, and commercial operations, globally,” said Pony.ai’s CFO Wang Junhao.

    The UAE is emerging as one of the showcasing grounds for China’s self-driving technology.

    In April this year, WeRide announced its collaboration with Uber and the RTA to launch robotaxi services in Dubai. It came after the Guangzhou-based tech firm secured the first autonomous driving license for the UAE in July 2023. In December last year, WeRide partnered with Uber to officially introduce robotaxi services in Abu Dhabi.

    Also, Baidu’s Apollo Go has inked a deal with the RTA this March to launch autonomous driving tests and services in Dubai, marking its entry into the Middle East. It plans to deploy 100 fully autonomous vehicles in Dubai by the end of 2025 and scale the fleet to at least 1,000 by 2028.

    The global Robotaxi market will grow at a compound annual growth rate of 64.1 percent from 2025 to 2032, according to a market forecast released by Coherent MI early this year.

    TECHNOLOGICAL STRENGTHS

    The global expansion of Chinese autonomous driving companies is partly driven by the country’s “data dividend” and strong government support for developing a self-driving ecosystem.

    With the country’s advantage of a vast population, extensive road networks, diverse and complex driving conditions, and rapidly advancing AI technology, robotaxi startups in China have quickly grown into leading companies in the world.

    Baidu and WeRide were named among the top 10 vendors in the Guidehouse Insights Leaderboard Report on automated driving systems (ADS), published last December, alongside NVIDIA and Waymo.

    They are developing at least Level-4 ADS that can operate without human intervention or supervision, according to research.

    Plus, Chinese authorities have designated at least 20 cities and city clusters as pilot zones for the application of “vehicle-road-cloud” integration for intelligent connected vehicles.

    This extensive road test data has boosted international recognition of China’s robotaxi services.

    “One day, autonomous driving will liberate human hands, and we will endeavor to see ‘AI drivers’ cruising in every corner of the world,” said UISEE’s CEO Wu when he talked about his ambitious plan.

  • Tesla’s European sales slump for fifth month as EV rivals gain momentum

    Source: Government of India

    Source: Government of India (4)

    Tesla’s new car sales in Europe fell 27.9% in May from a year earlier even as fully-electric vehicle sales in the region jumped 27.2%, with the U.S. EV maker’s revised Model Y yet to show signs of reviving the brand’s fortunes.

    Overall car sales in Europe rose 1.9%, with the strongest growth coming from plug-in hybrids and cars powered by alternative fuels, data from the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA) showed.

    WHY IT’S IMPORTANT

    Tesla’s European sales have now fallen for five straight months as customers switch to cheaper Chinese EVs and, in some cases, protest against Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s politics.

    Tesla’s European market share dropped to just 1.2% in May from 1.8% a year ago.

    The revised Model Y is meant to revamp the company’s ageing model range as traditional automakers and Chinese rivals launch EVs at a rapid pace amid trade tensions.

    BY THE NUMBERS

    May new car sales in the European Union, Britain and the European Free Trade Association rose to 1.11 million vehicles, following a 0.3% dip in April, ACEA data showed.

    Registrations at Chinese state-owned SAIC Motor and Germany’s BMW rose 22.5% and 5.6% respectively, while they fell 23% at Japan’s Mazda.

    In the EU alone, total car sales have fallen 0.6% so far this year.

    That comes despite growing demand for EVs, with registrations of battery-electric (BEV), plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and hybrid-electric (HEV) cars rising 26.1%, 15% and 19.8% respectively.

    EU sales of BEVs, HEVs and PHEVs combined accounted for 58.9% of passenger car registrations in May, up from 48.9% in May 2024.

    Among the largest EU markets, new car sales in Spain and Germany rose 18.6% and 1.2% respectively, while in France and Italy they dropped by 12.3% and 0.1%.

    In Britain, registrations were up 1.6%.

    EU sales of BEVs, HEVs and PHEVs combined accounted for 58.9% of passenger car registrations in May, up from 48.9% in May 2024.

    Among the largest EU markets, new car sales in Spain and Germany rose 18.6% and 1.2% respectively, while in France and Italy they dropped by 12.3% and 0.1%.

    In Britain, registrations were up 1.6%.

    The Innovation & Technology Commission stated today that it has introduced an enhancement to the New Industrialisation Funding Scheme (NIFS) that includes streamlined procedures to speed up the process of approving applications.

     

    In addition to noting that the enhancement applies to those seeking funding support of no more than $2.8 million, the commission emphasised that the relevant applications will be processed according to the newly established streamlined procedures.

     

    It also pointed out that the aim of the enhancement is to further support enterprises in adopting smart manufacturing and seize market opportunities.

     

    Secretary for Innovation, Technology & Industry Prof Sun Dong said that the Government actively promotes the development of new industrialisation through the New Industrialisation Acceleration Scheme (NIAS) and the NIFS, injecting new impetus into Hong Kong’s economy.

     

    While indicating that enterprises are making use of the funding support from these two schemes to set up new smart production facilities in Hong Kong, Prof Sun highlighted that funded enterprises will bring to Hong Kong the relevant technologies and expertise of product manufacturing, driving the development of Hong Kong’s new industrialisation and diversified economy.

     

    Moreover, the commission announced today that the New Industrialisation Vetting Committee has supported an application submitted by J Cube Semiconductor (Hong Kong) under the NIAS.

     

    The project plans to set up third-generation semiconductor silicon carbide wafer production facilities, which fall under the advanced manufacturing technology sector.

     

    The estimated total cost of the project is over $700 million, and the expected NIAS funding amount will be $200 million.

  • MIL-OSI: New Jitterbit Partner Program Enables Global Channel to Deliver Enterprise Automation, AI Agents

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    FRANKFURT, Germany, June 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Jitterbit, a global leader in accelerating business transformation for enterprise systems, today announced the global expansion of its partner program and new Jitterbit University partner curricula. Together, they provide solution providers, consulting firms and channel technology partners clear and profitable paths toward delivering end-to-end automation and agentic AI solutions to customers.

    “With the unprecedented focus on AI, channel partners are looking at the value technology provides their customers in a whole new way,” said Jitterbit Chief Revenue Officer Luca Taglioretti. “The advent of agentic AI is their chance to deliver real business improvement to customers faster than ever before. And the new Jitterbit Partner Program was designed from the ground up with these forward-thinking partners in mind.”

    In today’s world of complex, multi-vendor IT environments, it’s imperative that a modern partner ecosystem is designed to train, enable and empower reseller and referral partners to help their customers grow in the AI era.

    “Every enterprise is looking to infuse AI into the parts of their business where it will make the most financial impact,” said Jitterbit President and CEO Bill Conner. “But with a scarcity of skilled coding resources and trusted AI technology, enterprises want solutions and resources that bring business transformation and AI together. Jitterbit’s new partner program offers technology partners real AI solutions, training and certification, and a clear path to accelerate their customers’ businesses today — not 18 or 24 months down the road.”

    Partner Benefits Designed for Quick Growth in Agentic AI, Enterprise Automation

    The new global Jitterbit Partner Program is designed from the ground up to accelerate Jitterbit partners as they provide automation, integration, low-code app development and agentic AI capabilities to a new wave of business technologists.

    The boost to Jitterbit’s channel follows the release of Jitterbit’s new layered AI and low-code Harmony platform, which allows enterprises to democratize automation, design and build end-to-end systems, and even build their own AI agents.

    “If technology partners and resellers are serious about automation and agentic AI, they need to align their strategies with vendors that are building secure, compliant and accountable AI agents the right way,” said Hermann Ramacher, CEO of ADN, a major Jitterbit distributor in Germany. “What’s attractive to ADN is that we can use Jitterbit’s platform to build agents ourselves, or outsource the work to their AI experts. It gives us the ease, speed and flexibility to deliver value for our customers and accelerate our business into the next phase of AI.”

    The first phase of the new global Jitterbit Partner Program delivers resellers and referral partners foundational benefits to scale their automation capabilities:

    • Financial Benefits & Deal Protection: Partners can benefit from competitive product discounts for new unique opportunities through deal registration and annual back-end rebates, ensuring competitive advantages and protected margins. Referral partners receive referral fees.
    • Structured Onboarding & Co-Selling: Jitterbit provides a structured onboarding program to rapidly enable partners within 90 days, complemented by a collaborative co-selling model that encourages early engagement, team-based interactions, and shared opportunities.
    • Go-to-Market Support & Growth: Reseller partners gain access to performance incentive programs, proposal-based MDF, and assigned sales executive leadership to drive joint market initiatives. Joint business plan development and rep-to-rep alignment further foster mutual growth.
    • Complimentary Training & Resources: Free online training and certification curriculum is available for all partners. Initial online product technical training and complimentary sandbox access is available for resellers, ensuring partners are well-equipped to sell and support Jitterbit solutions. Partners also have access to a dedicated support portal and various resources.

    Jitterbit University Delivers Accelerated Path toward Agentic Experience

    Jitterbit’s new partner program includes partner-specific training and certifications within the world-class Jitterbit University. This online learning platform accelerates skills transfer in the fast-moving AI market by offering:

    • Complimentary Training Library: Equip teams with essential skills through a full suite of complimentary training courses.
    • Structured Learning Paths & Certification: Gain expertise and confidence on the Harmony platform with dedicated training paths and a recognized certification program.
    • Collaborate with Jitterbit Experts: Connect and collaborate with the Jitterbit Community, a global network of Jitterbit users and experts.

    Available globally, this expanded enablement resource means Jitterbit’s channel community can quickly answer customer questions across a vast array of topics and use time-proven shortcuts to speed up implementations.

    Design, Source AI Agents within AI-Infused Harmony Platform

    According to a recent Jitterbit survey, 69% of UK and US enterprises are not currently set up to deliver agentic AI — presenting a huge opportunity for those across the IT industry looking to offer these services.

    Rather than relying on ‘off the shelf’ or ‘sameware’ tech offerings to meet this growing demand, enterprises are increasingly turning to Jitterbit Harmony to take full control of their own AI-infused future.

    “The market we operate in is more dynamic and fast-paced than ever before,” said Taglioretti. “Businesses are increasingly relying on technology to drive their success, and the demand for innovative, scalable solutions has reached new heights. Agentic AI is not just a trend — it’s a massive wave of opportunity, and together, we are perfectly positioned to ride it.”

  • MIL-Evening Report: Election flows reveal nearly 90% of Greens preferenced Labor ahead of Coalition

    Source: The Conversation (Au and NZ) – By Adrian Beaumont, Election Analyst (Psephologist) at The Conversation; and Honorary Associate, School of Mathematics and Statistics, The University of Melbourne

    Minor party preference flows for the federal election have been released, with Labor winning Greens preferences by 88.2–11.8, while the Coalition won One Nation preferences by 74.5–24.5. I also cover a SA state poll that gave Labor a massive 67–33 lead.

    The Australian Electoral Commission’s results for the May 3 federal election now show how minor parties’ preferences flowed between Labor and the Coalition. The Greens won 12.2% of the national primary vote, and their preferences favoured Labor over the Coalition by 88.2–11.8. That’s a 2.5% preference flow gain for Labor since the 2022 election.

    One Nation had 6.4% of primary votes. Their preferences favoured the Coalition over Labor by 74.5–25.5, a 10.2% preference flow gain for the Coalition. Independents made up 7.3% of primary votes, and their preferences favoured Labor by 67.2–32.8, a 3.4% gain for Labor.

    Including Trumpet of Patriots (1.9% of primary votes) with others, others made up 7.7% of primary votes and their preferences favoured the Coalition by 57.3–42.7, a 0.6% gain for the Coalition since 2022 if United Australia Party (4.1% in 2022) is included with others then.

    The AEC formally declared the poll by returning the writs on June 12. Results can be legally challenged within 40 days of this declaration, so by July 22.

    In Bradfield, Teal Nicolette Boele only won by 26 votes against the Liberals, and this result could be challenged.

    As the AEC does not want to disturb the ballot papers until any challenge is resolved by the courts, it is for now using an estimated two-party result in Bradfield (55.0–45.0 to the Liberals against Labor). Analyst Ben Raue believes this estimate is understating Labor in Bradfield by 4.4%.

    If Raue is right, the current national two-party vote (55.22–44.78 to Labor) is very slightly understating Labor.

    While One Nation’s preference shift helped the Coalition, there were compensatory shifts to Labor from Greens and independent voters. The combined primary vote for One Nation and Trumpet of Patriots was down 0.8% from 2022 to 8.3%, while independents were up 2.0%.

    Applying 2022 election flows to primary votes at this election only overstates Labor by 0.1% compared to their actual two-party vote.

    In my poll review article on June 5, I said respondent allocated preferences in final polls did not show a large gap in the Coalition’s favour from using 2022 election flows that had occurred in polls earlier in the year.

    It’s likely that Labor’s share of preferences from Greens and Teal-type independents rose close to the election. People who voted for these candidates may have been disappointed with Labor’s environmental record, but both Peter Dutton and Donald Trump helped Labor with these people.

    In the last term, the Greens were economically left-wing as well as pro-environment. Voters who supported the Greens because of their economic agenda are probably less likely to prefer the Coalition to Labor than environmental voters.

    The Poll Bludger has a graph that shows that, in federal elections since 2004, Labor’s share of Greens preferences was at a record high this election, but their share of One Nation preferences was at a record low.

    Weak Labor flows to Boele

    In Bradfield, Labor preferences favoured Boele by 68.6–31.4 against the Liberals.
    There were 16 other seats where Labor preferences were distributed between the Coalition and a non-Coalition candidate. The Labor flow to Boele was the second weakest in such seats. This weak flow almost cost Boele Bradfield.

    The only seat that had a weaker Labor preference flow to a non-Coalition candidate was Maranoa, where the non-Coalition candidate was One Nation. Labor preferences in Maranoa split 57.9–42.1 to the Liberal National Party against One Nation. In 13 of the 17 seats, Labor preferences flowed at over 75% rates to the non-Coalition candidate.

    In early April, the ABC reported Boele had made a crude sexual remark to a 19-year-old employee at a hair salon after receiving a haircut and was banned from that salon. This may explain the weaker preference flow from Labor voters.

    Weak Greens flows to Teals in Teal vs Labor contests

    There were three seats where the final two were Labor and a Teal independent: Bean, Franklin and Fremantle. In Bean and Fremantle, the Liberals recommended preferences to the Teal on their how to vote material, but not in Franklin.

    Labor held all three seats, but only by 50.3–49.7 in Bean and 50.7–49.3 in Fremantle. Labor won much more easily in Franklin, by 57.8–42.2, where they benefited from Liberal how to vote cards.

    In Bean, Greens preferences only favoured Teal Jessie Price by 50.6–49.4 over Labor, while Liberal preferences favoured her by 80.0–20.0. In Fremantle, Greens preferences favoured Teal Kate Hulett by 52.9–47.1, while Liberal preferences favoured her by 76.5–23.5. In Franklin, Greens preferences favoured Teal Peter George by 53.8–46.2.

    In Bean and Fremantle, had Greens preferences been stronger for the Teal, Labor would have lost to a more pro-environment candidate. Perhaps Labor benefited on Greens preferences owing to the Greens’ more economic left-wing agenda.

    And a national Morgan poll, conducted June 2–22 from a sample of 3,957, gave Labor a 58–42 lead, unchanged from the previous Morgan poll in May. Primary votes were 37.5% Labor (up 0.5), 31% Coalition (steady), 12% Greens (up 0.5), 6% One Nation (steady) and 13.5% for all Others (down one).

    By 43–41.5, voters thought the country was headed in the right direction, the first time right direction has led since February 2023. The overall net +1.5 rating is +48 with Labor voters, +11.5 with Greens, -43 with Coalition voters, -80.5 with One Nation voters and -17.5 with all Others.

    Labor holds massive lead in SA

    The next South Australian state election will be held in March 2026. A YouGov poll for The Adelaide Advertiser, conducted May 15–28 from a sample of 903, gave Labor a massive 67–33 lead over the Liberals (54.6–45.4 to Labor at the March 2022 election). Primary votes were 48% Labor, 21% Liberals, 14% Greens, 7% One Nation, 8% independents and 2% others.

    If the results at next March’s election reflect this poll, the Liberals would hold just two of the 47 lower house seats on a uniform swing. It would be easily their worst result in SA state history.

    In Australian electoral history, there has only been one bigger landslide: when Western Australian Labor defeated the Liberals and Nationals by 69.7–30.3 at the March 2021 state election.

    Socialist likely to be next New York City mayor

    I covered today’s AEST New York City Democratic mayoral primary election for The Poll Bludger. While preferences won’t be tabulated until next Tuesday, the socialist Zohran Mamdani leads former New York governor Andrew Cuomo by 43.5–36.4 on primary votes, and is virtually certain to win. As the Democratic nominee, Mamdani is likely to win the November general election.

    The article also covers Donald Trump’s ratings and polls in Israel.
