Cloud Tech ETF soars 32% year-to-date. Managing Director Anthony Ginsberg reveals global cloud boom

HANetf

HAN-GINS ETF managing director Anthony Ginsberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the Cloud Tech ETF's impressive performance in a recent interview. The Cloud Tech ETF has gained over 32% year-to-date and about 20% over the past year, driven by its diversified portfolio of cloud holdings. Unlike other players focused solely on the US, this ETF maintains a global approach with 15% of its weightage in Asia. The convergence of AI and cloud technology has significantly contributed to its success, with players like Palo Alto Networks and video streaming platforms benefiting. Notably, the Microsoft-Activision acquisition is also seen as a cloud play. The ETF features 100 holdings that are equally weighted and rebalanced every six months, ensuring comprehensive coverage of the cloud ecosystem. Ginsberg attributed the rise in cloud adoption to a recessionary environment that has led to outsourcing of servers and reduced IT staff. He projected cloud spending to reach 50% of all IT enterprise spending by next year and an additional trillion dollars in cloud expenditure by 2026. Cloud services offer cost savings and facilitate remote work and cybersecurity. Asia, particularly in gaming, is a major contributor to cloud usage. The ETF's unique design encompasses infrastructure, software as a service, and platforms as a service, capturing the entire cloud ecosystem. Ginsberg expects the cloud market to double in size within three years, especially as more enterprises transition to outsourcing. The flexibility of multi-cloud platforms is facilitating data sharing across regions and industries. Contact Details Proactive Investors +1 604-688-8158 na-editorial@proactiveinvestors.com

Tech megatrend success: HAN-Gins Index fund managing director shares strategies for over 45% growth

HANetf

Anthony Ginsberg, managing director of the HAN-GINS Megatrend ETF, joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the success of their tech Megatrend ETF. The fund, with a 45% surge this year and 20% year-over-year growth, capitalizes on the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Distinguished by its diversified approach, the ETF encompasses AI, robotics, cybersecurity, cloud, and electric vehicles, standing apart from standard tech funds. Unlike NASDAQ, the ETF maintains a global benchmark, with the US accounting for only 58-59%, promoting broader diversification. Ginsberg emphasized the equal-weighted structure of the fund, rotating profits every six months across its eight subthemes. This approach differentiates the Megatrend ETF from NASDAQ's heavily weighted allocation to large-cap stocks like the FAANGs. Ginsberg noted the emphasis on Asia, with over 20% exposure, compared to 10% in the US. Tech's transformative role was highlighted, driven by AI's projected quadrupling in expenditure to $2.5 trillion, influencing cloud and cybersecurity domains. Ginsberg also acknowledged the impact of remote work and key acquisitions, such as Microsoft's $75 billion Activision deal. Overall, this strategy leverages the tech megatrend's global scope and diversified portfolio to achieve notable returns.

This Fandom Social Media App Based on AI Harnesses The Economic Power Of Fandom – And Shares It With Its 26 Million Users

Benzinga

By Rachael Green, Benzinga Hanryu Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: HRYU) launched Version 2.0 of its K-culture fandom platform, FANTOO, this month. The 26 million users currently using FANTOO will now get personalized content and a more user-friendly interface. Here’s a closer look at what the global fandom social media platform offers users and how it’s generating earnings for the company and its shareholders. What Is FANTOO? Unlike other fandom apps that are centered around a single artist or group, FANTOO is a global platform for all fandoms. Its current user base spans 150 countries, but real-time multilingual translation erases language barriers so users can connect with each other over their shared interests regardless of language or location. The fandom-oriented social media app gives fans a place to join or start clubs focused on their favorite artists, shows and more. They can unpack the latest episode of their favorite K-drama with fellow fans, vote for their favorite K-pop artist in monthly contests, and create content to share in clubs or the main feed. That includes webcomics, fan art, fan fiction and other fandom-related content. What separates the app from any other social media platforms out there, though, is a unique reward system that actually allows users and content creators to earn money on their fandom content and interactions. Creating content, posting, liking, sharing and other activity in the app is rewarded with FP points. Those points can be used to make purchases in the app or be converted into your local currency and withdrawn. Another way users can earn is by selling things on the fan shop, an eBay-like platform for buying and selling merchandise and collectibles related to their favorite fandoms. FANTOO 2.0 Comes With Multiple Revenue Streams Right now, Hanryu generates the bulk of its revenue through advertising, generating over $889,000 from that stream in 2022. Brands advertising on the platform have access to a highly engaged audience along with the data analytics needed to get their message in front of the users most likely to be interested. But the company has added additional sources of revenue throughout this year, including transaction fees, user-created content, merchandise and live shows streamed on the platform. Looking ahead, Hanryu has more big plans in store for FANTOO including expanding the range of fandoms that can gather on the platform and a metaverse version of the platform where fans can meet and explore the different features of the app in virtual reality. The company also announced a partnership this month with SALTLUX, a South Korea-based AI tech company that’s developed an AI-powered conversational virtual assistant. SALTLUX bears the distinction of holding the most AI and big data-related patents in Korea. Through the partnership, Hanryu plans to adapt the technology to create personalized AI assistants and chatbots. Slated to launch later this year, the service will use voice synthesis and deep learning technology to allow fans to have realistic conversations with an AI that sounds like their favorite celebrities. Chang-Hyuk Kang, CEO and Director of Hanryu Holdings, commented on the development, "We are pleased to partner with SALTLUX to integrate AI into FANTOO. This advanced technology will provide our loyal userbase with an enhanced experience on FANTOO. Launching our conversational virtual assistant is only the beginning of AI capabilities on our platform." This post contains sponsored content.

How Shapeways Is Helping Small And Midsized Manufacturers Digitize Their Operations Through Its Proprietary Software

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Shapeways Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: SHPW), a major player in the field of digital manufacturing, is currently redefining the global manufacturing industry. Shapeways is achieving this shift through enabling on-demand manufacturing and simplifying complex production through its proprietary software system. The company is helping other small and midsized manufacturers do the same, providing access to Shapeways’ proprietary software and supporting them in digitizing their operations, growing revenue, and expanding manufacturing capabilities. “The manufacturing industry is one of the largest markets that has yet to be digitized. We see large manufacturing companies investing in digital transformation, but the smaller and midsized players have often missed out,” shared Gregory Kress, CEO of Shapeways. “We want to help them achieve the same benefits as those larger companies.” Realizing a need–and recognizing the opportunity–to reshape manufacturing, Shapeways responded with the launch of OTTO, a proprietary software platform that streamlines ordering, performs file analysis, and accelerates production. OTTO offers advantages beyond optimizing labor efficiency, asset utilization, and inventory costs. This powerful software platform also strengthens relationships between manufacturers and their customers, encouraging growth and paving the way for future opportunities. Acquiring MFG in 2022, Shapeways further reinforced the connection between their manufacturers and buyers by deploying software features and services to the platform. MFG.com now provides an end-to-end procurement and management system, helping manufacturers increase productivity and revenue. The MFG service benefits business owners, industrial designers, and engineers. Shapeways recently introduced MFG Materials, a new software offering on the MFG platform. This addition provides manufacturers with access to a wide range of raw materials at an average discount of 15% off list prices. Reflecting Shapeways' commitment to the manufacturing sector, this innovative solution is designed to tap into the large and growing global raw materials market, with aluminum alone valued at $169.8 billion in 2021. This market is projected to reach $277.5 billion by 2030, according to Precedence Research. Building on user feedback, Shapeways also developed MFG Transactions within the MFG platform. Requested by 92% of MFG buyers, this practical solution allows manufacturers to handle invoices and payments directly. Shapeways introduced the 3D Model Viewer too, a sophisticated tool that simplifies the quoting experience, showcasing all the files a potential buyer uploads with their RFQ (including 2D files). The 3D Model Viewer not only enables interactive highlighting and grouping of intricate details, but also delivers precise measurements and superior visualization techniques. Leading with world-renowned expertise and advanced software, Shapeways is well-positioned to revolutionize the manufacturing landscape. By extending their innovative, on-demand manufacturing services and software to a broad range of industries, Shapeways allows other companies to tap into their knowledge and insights to remain competitive in an ever-changing modern market.
