The Clean Economy Employment Now («CLEEN») Project Launches Nation’s First Database with Actionable Ideas for Federal Leaders to Combat Climate Change, «Build Back Better,» and Advance Climate Justice

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The CLEEN Project announces the launch of our nation’s first co-operative database of actionable ideas to combat climate change, Build Back Better, and advance climate justice. Designed specifically for federal leaders, <a target="_blank"…

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The CLEEN Project announces the launch of our nation’s first co-operative database of actionable ideas to combat climate change, Build Back Better, and advance climate justice. Designed specifically for federal leaders, the database is searchable by the Biden-Harris administration’s «Build Back Better» industry verticals, governmental authority, and specific types of governmental action, such as public-private partnerships, procurement, tax credits, and White House-led initiatives.

«There now exists a common home for climate solutions that dramatically eases idea discovery and sharing by federal leaders and helps amplify the great work of climate-focused think tanks, environmental justice organizations, private sector actors, and policy experts. This new and inclusive home is the result of the commitment and enthusiasm of hundreds of climate leaders and experts who want to help the Biden-Harris Administration tackle some of our nation’s most pressing problems.» 
Jeffrey Tannenbaum, Advisory Board member; Founder, sPower LLC

«In less than 20 years, we have gone from decarbonization of the electricity grid being impossible to the President of the United States saying that it has to be done by 2035. There is an essential role for the government to play in setting the rules not just in electricity but in all areas that need to be decarbonized, and this is a powerful tool that will help advance the battle against climate change.»
Jigar Shah, Advisory Board member; Co-Founder, Generate Capital; Founder, SunEdison.

«Frontline communities have borne the brunt of climate change. As we Build Back Better, it’s critical that we not continue to perpetuate economic and environmental injustices. In addition to proposing policies that center equity and primarily serve frontline communities, we screened recommendations to prevent adversely impacting already overburdened communities.»
Anna Lising, Advisory Board member; Climate Justice Advocate

«We have taken a highly pragmatic approach by focusing on actionability and are delighted to note that more than two-thirds of the current database can be implemented under existing government authority. It is a great mix of actionable ideas and some heavier lifts that may get across the finish line as part of a stimulus bill or budget reconciliation.»
Greg Kats, Advisory Board member; CEO, Smart Surfaces Coalition

«Federal climate leaders now have access to a first-of-a-kind database of concrete, actionable policies to rapidly ‘Build Back Better.’ Many of Clean Energy for Biden’s 13,000 volunteers contributed to The CLEEN Project to build this inclusive and robust database for tackling carbon pollution while supporting a clean economy.»   
Nidhi Thakar, Advisory Board Member; Co-Chair, Clean Energy for Biden; Former Senior Advisor for Loan Programs Office, US Department of Energy

This decade will be the most decisive ever in human history in what we enact to address the climate crisis, equity, and health. The CLEEN Project is an innovative structure that addresses some of the finest of what we can devise in policy, technology, financing, organizing and deployment strategies that will be valuable to all levels of government, the private sector, and civil society. I’m personally hoping we can find a way for the Project to continue and expand through the first year of the new Administration.» 
Heidi VanGenderen, Advisory Board Member; Former Director of Public Engagement, US Department of Energy

ALPHARETTA, Georgia, 27 de enero de 2021 /PRNewswire/ — 

Un número récord de nuevos clientes empresariales, grandes mejoras de producto y expansión geográfica impulsan un crecimiento e ingresos sin precedentes.

ALPHARETTA, Georgia, 27 de enero de 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Stonebranch, un proveedor líder de soluciones de orquestación y automatización de servicio, anunció un crecimiento e ingresos récord en 2020, impulsados por la incorporación de numerosos clientes empresariales, importantes actualizaciones en tecnología y la expansión en la región de Asia Pacífico.

Stonebranch_Logo

Stonebranch añadió un número récord de nuevos clientes empresariales en 2020, impulsando los más altos ingresos de la compañía desde que se fundó en 1999. Contribuyendo también al fuerte rendimiento de la compañía estuvieron las nuevas y mejoras integraciones con herramientas de terceros y el actual desarrollo de las capacidades de orquestación de DevOps. Además, Stonebranch abrió un nuevo eje regional Asia-Pacífico en Kuala Lumpur, Malasia en enero de 2020, que ha permitido a la compañía capitalizar la demanda de rápido crecimiento de la región para orquestación de servicio y software de automatización, lo que incluye automatización de la carga de trabajo.  

«Stonebranch tuvo un 2020 muy fuerte, empezando con ingresos récord», explicó el consejero delegado de Stonebranch, Giuseppe Damiani. «Alcanzamos estos resultados gracias a seguir reforzando nuestras relaciones con los clientes actuales, manteniendo una cuota de retención de más del 99 por ciento. También añadimos un número récord de nuevos clientes empresariales. El fuerte rendimiento de Stonebranch es una prueba no solo de la experiencia y dedicación de nuestro equipo, sino también de la plataforma de orquestación y automatización de servicio de alta clase de Stonebranch, el Universal Automation Center

El Universal Automation Center (UAC) permite a las empresas orquestar empleos y cargas de trabajo automatizados en tiempo real en entornos TI híbridos cada vez más complejos, infraestructuras nativas de la nube y carteras de big data. Reconocido por analistas líderes, como Gartner y EMA, el UAC en 2020 obtuvo también el estatus de ‘High Performer’ de los usuarios finales en el mercado de la tecnología G2.  

Damiani continuó: «Durante más de 20 años, Stonebranch ha sido un proveedor de confianza de soluciones de automatización TI para una amplia sección cruzada de industrias. Mientras las empresas escalan sus productos y servicios digitales, los equipos I&O están replanteando el que una vez fue un enfoque oportunista y basado en silos a la automatización. El equipo de Stonebranch está trabajando estrechamente con nuestros clientes para ayudar a derribar estos silos de automatización y lograr sus objetivos de transformación digital».

Stonebranch siguió realizando mejoras importantes de año en año al Universal Automation Center. Estas mejoras están diseñadas para ayudar a las empresas a cubrir el vacío entre entornos de nube y en premisas, lo que permite a las organizaciones impulsar la agilidad centrada en el cliente como parte de sus iniciativas de nube, big data y DevOps.

Las mejoras al Universal Automation Center incluyen nuevas y actualizadas integraciones con herramientas de terceros para ayudar a orquestar entornos TI híbridos, incluyendo integraciones con proveedores de servicios de nube; soluciones de gestión de servicio TI; soluciones utilizadas en la cartera de big data; herramientas de colaboración en el sitio de trabajo ampliamente utilizadas, y contenedores y soluciones de automatización de contenedor.

Además, Stonebranch se centró en unificar a los desarrolladores con equipos IT Ops para apoyar la creciente demanda de empresas que han adoptado una metodología DevOps. Las mejoras con el UAC incluyen infrastructure-as-code, jobs-as-code y orquestación de las herramientas de automatización utilizadas en la cadena de herramientas DevOps.

«Tenemos todas nuestras expectativas puestas en que 2021 sea otro año fuerte para Stonebranch. Liderando la lista está nuestro próximo nuevo lanzamiento –la versión 7.0- del Universal Automation Center. Creada mano a mano con nuestros clientes, la UAC 7 promete ayudar a los clientes empresariales a obtener niveles totalmente nuevos de orquestación y automatización de servicio», concluyó Damiani.

Tennessee Sports Betting Extends History-Making Start With $180 Million December, According to PlayTenn

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Tennessee’s online sportsbooks continued to gain momentum, reaching $180 million in wagers in December to close 2020 with the best two-month debut in U.S. sports betting history. An untested market before launching in November, Tennessee is off to the kind of start that almost no one could have predicted, according to analysts from <a target="_blank"…

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Tennessee’s online sportsbooks continued to gain momentum, reaching $180 million in wagers in December to close 2020 with the best two-month debut in U.S. sports betting history. An untested market before launching in November, Tennessee is off to the kind of start that almost no one could have predicted, according to analysts from PlayTenn, which offers news and analysis of the fledgling Tennessee gaming market.

«Tennessee launched with what many thought were a lot of question marks, but it is proving to be The Little Engine that Could,» said Jessica Welman, analyst for PlayTenn.com. «It seemed operators were slow to get to the state, many were concerned the 10% hold mandate would tamp down demand, and there were questions on whether or not the Tennessee Education Lottery was up to the task of regulating the industry. Those concerns seem like a distant memory now as Tennessee has catapulted itself into becoming a major player in the U.S. industry in just two months.»

In a December that featured four NFL Sundays, down from five in November, bettors placed $180.9 million in wagers, according to official data released Tuesday evening by The Tennessee Education Lottery. That topped November’s $131.4 million handle by 37.6%. December’s wagers produced a «win» of $13.9 million for the operators, up from $13.2 million in November. And the month’s win injected $3.1 million into state coffers.

Through the market’s first two months, Tennessee has:

  • Generated $312.3 million in bets, by far the most of any legal sports betting jurisdiction in U.S. history. The next closest was Indiana, which produced $126.9 million.
  • Shattered the records for the best first month and the best second month. Indiana held both records, hitting $35.2 million in September 2019 before reaching $91.7 million in October 2019. 
  • Set a new standard for operator revenue with $27.1 million. Indiana generated $20.1 million in its first two months.

Tennessee’s hot start can be attributed to several major factors. First, the state launched its sports betting industry with online sports betting. Secondly, with no retail component in the state, there was no in-person registration requirement for online sports betting, which can artificially depress a market. None of Tennessee’s seven neighboring states offered online sports betting during the Volunteer State’s first two months, and only two, Arkansas and Mississippi, are home to any retail betting. And the Tennessee Titans’ playoff run spurred local interest.

«Tennessee launched under near-perfect conditions and that can be seen in the early results,» said Dustin Gouker, analyst for PlayTenn.com. «Even with added competition from Virginia now going live, Tennessee’s start has established the state as a significant player in the U.S. And I don’t see anything that will stop the market’s momentum in the short-term.»

Tennessee is now the nation’s seventh-largest sports betting market with plenty of growth still to come.

Only four sportsbooks are in operation so far. But more are expected soon. That includes the imminent launch of TwinSpires as well as WynnBET and William Hill.

«Having FanDuel and DraftKings, the nation’s two largest operators, in place at launch has helped fuel Tennessee’s surge,» Welman said. «But more high-quality operators will help mature the market. As good as Tennessee’s start has been, the best days are still to come.»

Misty Copeland Launches Mustang Mach-E Social Challenge to Honor Unique Strength of Women – #ShowSomeMuscle

DEARBORN, Mich., Jan. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Now more than ever, women are flexing their muscle as we work to navigate through challenging times. From essential workers to teachers, nurses, rising political leaders and poets, women are demonstrating the kind of strength it takes to keep pushing forward – both in the workplace and at home.

DEARBORN, Mich., Jan. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Now more than ever, women are flexing their muscle as we work to navigate through challenging times. From essential workers to teachers, nurses, rising political leaders and poets, women are demonstrating the kind of strength it takes to keep pushing forward – both in the workplace and at home. Ford is paying tribute to all of the formidable women leading the way with the launch of the Mustang Mach-E #ShowSomeMuscle social media challenge. #ShowSomeMuscle encourages everyday heroes to share their personal stories of perseverance, ingenuity, compassion, creativity and more.

American ballet dancer Misty Copeland, professional basketball player Gabby Williams and Ayana Lage, an advocate for social justice, helped kick off the challenge earlier this week. These talented, accomplished women are sharing their personal stories of unique strength and triumph, and nominating the inspirational women in their own lives to also #ShowSomeMuscle.

«After 20 years of performing, the loss of live shows and the purpose that gave me has taken its toll,» said Copeland. «But I have been inspired by and have witnessed real courage and resilience, and seen strength in vulnerability as we remain hopeful of an end to the pandemic. That’s why I’m honored to be among the first voices to share my story in the Mustang Mach-E #ShowSomeMuscle challenge and to celebrate the women who continue to inspire me.»

Through #ShowSomeMuscle, Ford is providing a platform – and an iconic symbol – to spotlight all of the inspirational women who are redefining what real muscle looks like.

«With Mustang Mach-E, Ford is redefining the conventional idea of a muscle car,» said Emma Bergg, Ford global electric vehicle communications manager. «Through this challenge, we’re highlighting that muscle is not only physical form and brute strength – it encompasses innovation, empathy, creativity, compassion and resilience.»

To illustrate the spirit of the challenge, Ford is working with Detroit-bred fine artist and muralist Sydney James to create custom artwork for a limited-edition #ShowSomeMuscle T-shirt.

«My body of work is about strong women,» said James. «My inspiration for the Madonna of Muscle art featured on this shirt is a leader, entrepreneur and hustler in the Detroit community – one whose image exudes so much more than physical strength.»

Highlights of the accomplishments of these talented heroes sharing their stories include:

Misty Copeland: With 20 years of professional ballet under her belt, Copeland made history by becoming the first African American woman to be a principal dancer at one of the nation’s most prestigious dance companies. She is the author of three bestselling books, Life In Motion, Ballerina Body, and Bunheads.

Gabby Williams: Professional basketball player, Williams brings dominating athleticism and dynamic skill to the court. With a flair for music and fashion and a mind for activism, Williams is a power forward, was the No. 4 draft pick, and plays in Hungary.

Ayana Lage: Tampa-based blog curator Lage has made a name for herself as an outspoken advocate for social justice. As a new mother, she has been open with her followers about postpartum mental health.

Aircraft Communication System Market: Highlights

Aircraft operation hugely depends on efficient communication from aircraft to ground, aircraft to aircraft, and ground to aircraft. All aerial vehicles including helicopters and unmanned aerial vehicles need an efficient communication system to operate flawlessly. A basic communication system involves the transmission and reception of voice and/or data in the form of electromagnetic waves. Communication is carried out in several frequencies allocated by the International Telecommunications Union (ITU). This spectrum of frequencies ranges from 30 kHz to 30,000 kHz and is divided into bands for convenience.

Aircraft communication systems account for ~20% share of the total avionics’ equipment market. With increasing ACARS volume and rapidly evolving customer needs, there have been ceaseless developments in the communication systems market ranging from wireless communication equipment to surging use of data link and SATCOM-based communications.

Though the market efficiently dodged the B737max grounding debacle in 2019, the rapid spread of pandemic in 2020 hit the market like a bolt out of the blue, bringing in sudden changes in the business, disconcerting the entire industry. The aircraft communication systems market recorded a massive downturn of -25% YoY in 2020, wrecking the hopes of another successful year in 2020.

Nevertheless, the long-term scenario still seems lucrative, backed by strong industry fundamentals coupled with the stakeholders’ unmatched ability to strive through the crisis. The aircraft communication systems market is likely to follow suit, moving parallelly with the industry’s rebound, experiencing a gradual recovery in demand from 2021 onwards, translating to sales of US$ 3.3 Billion in 2026.
