FTN Network announced today that it has closed its seed funding round, oversubscribing its goal of $3 million in just two months from a group of private investors, led by investor Perry Gershon and a TechStars investment fund. Along with the raise, FTN saw tremendous growth in multiple areas of its business in Q3 of this year, headlined by over $1.05 million in quarterly total revenue, a 52% increase when compared to Q3 of 2022. FTN expanded throughout the year, signing football data guru Aaron Schatz, creator of the industry leading DVOA analysis, acquiring new fantasy business tools that helped FTN widen its customer base, and launching The FTN Fantasy Show on SiriusXM Radio, a compliment to FTN President Jeff Ratcliffe’s own industry leading presence on CBS television and SiriusXM Radio. FTN’s consumer subscription businesses alone are on par to exceed $1 million annual revenue for 2023, and nearly 60% growth over 2022. Additionally, the company is restructuring with Kevin Adams, FTN’s Founder and CEO, selling a majority of his equity to Gershon and taking on an advisory position with new responsibilities. Perry Gershon becomes FTN’s new Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately. Gershon, a career businessman, spent over 25 years as an industry pioneer in commercial real estate finance. Perry started his business ventures by developing and operating one of New York City’s first sports bars in 1987, the Polo Grounds. Perry was also the 2018 Democratic nominee in New York CD-1 for the House of Representatives. Former FTN CEO Kevin Adams will remain on FTN’s expanded Board of Directors in his new role and will also serve the Company in an advisory capacity as its Chief Strategy Officer. “With the success FTN has had in 2023, it’s key to continue to build on the foundation that Kevin and the rest of the team have created,” Gershon said. “The recent success gives us momentum and direction as we continue to develop FTN into the industry standard for those looking to get a leg-up when betting or playing fantasy sports.” About FTN Network FTN Network is a fantasy sports and betting media company with a thriving suite of consumer products along with an expanding sports data and analytics vertical that specializes in delivering business-to-business solutions.

The Avenue of Stars Management Company
HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 5 December 2023 - Hong Kong's Avenue of Stars lit up in the glitziest fashion on Friday night (30 November) as French fashion house Louis Vuitton took over the promenade for its first-ever fashion show in the city. Overlooking Hong Kong's stunning skyline, Victoria Harbour and the revitalised Victoria Dockside, Louis Vuitton's Men's Pre-Fall 2024 show was a nod to the city's cultural vibrancy and nautical past, and showcased Hong Kong's allure as a world stage for mega, cultural events. Led by Louis Vuitton men's creative director Pharrell Williams, the Avenue of Stars was transformed into a sandy beach, as models marched down digital displays of lapping waves. One of the biggest spectacles of its kind in Asia, hundreds of international stars and socialites lined the promenade, including Louis Vuitton CEO Pietro Beccari, French actor Tahar Rahim, American rapper Pusha T, Chinese idol band TNT, South Korean actor Song Joong-ki, as well as Hong Kong celebrities Chow Yun-fat, Aaron Kwok, and Louis Koo. The success of the momentous event was attributed to facilitation from the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) Government, which offered its full support to Louis Vuitton, including coordination of approvals, venue usage and layout, as well as crowd control, ensuring the show advanced smoothly from conception to fruition, and all planned in only a few months. The Sports and Tourism Bureau and the Leisure and Cultural Services Department also played instrumental roles in staging the remarkable event. Ending with a riveting light show above Victoria Harbour, where a squadron of choreographed drones displayed "LVers" (a combination of Louis Vuitton's monogram with the word "lovers"), the show sent a message of positivity to Hong Kong and the rest of the world. The event was livestreamed on Louis Vuitton's social media accounts, attracting over 10 million views, and is still reaching eyeballs on multiple social media platforms transmitting snapshots of the magnificent show to the globe. Hong Kong's international comeback as a hub for mega cultural events The Hong Kong SAR Government attaches great importance to enticing international and mega arts and cultural events, cultivating Hong Kong as an arts and cultural metropolis and tourist attraction. Locals and tourists alike can expect more acclaimed events in the city over the coming year. Contact Details Isabel Kwok +852 6475 7796 isabel.kwok@citigatedewerogerson.com

Starting from this year, TISDC begins its collaboration with local governments, including Chiayi City Government, the Cultural Affairs Bureau, Chiayi City Government, and the Cultural Affairs Bureau, Kinmen County Government. The competition encompasses three categories: Product Design, Visual Design, and Digital Animation. With "compassion" as the theme of this year, the competition invited students from all over the world to observe and care more about the world and their surroundings. With a compassionate and caring mindset, they can make the world a better place. The award ceremony of the 2023 Taiwan International Student Design Competition was held at Eslite Performance Hall in Songshan Cultural and Creative Park in Taipei City on December 1st, 2023. This year, a total of 18,367 entries representing 1,161 universities, colleges, departments, and schools from 56 countries and regions participated in the competition. The jury panel consisted of international professionals. During the preliminary selection, 741 works were shortlisted by 112 professionals from 31 countries, with 38 jurors from Taiwan and 74 from abroad, accounting for 34% and 66% respectively. The final selection was held face-to-face and the judging panel consisted of professional judges from Taiwan and 21 representatives from international design associations, making it a diverse group of 41 judges from all five continents. Eventually, 85 works were selected as winners, which means only 4% of the works can be a finalist and the winning rate was even as low as 0.46%. It shows how rare and precious it is to stand out from all the other works. The prizes are listed as the following: 1 grand prix of the year and 1 gold, 3 silver, 3 bronze, and 12 honorable mentions for each category (sponsored by the Ministry of Education); 21 international design association special prizes (jointly sponsored by iSee Taiwan Foundation and Sayling Wen Cultural & Educational Foundation); 3 environmental sustainability awards and six regional special awards (established by TPCA Environment Foundation); one special award and two honorable mentions in collaboration with the Chiayi City Government.
