HANetf launches Future of Defence UCITS ETF

HANetf Holdings Limited

HANetf Head of ETF Research Tom Bailey visits the Proactive London studio to speak with Thomas Warner about the company's newly-launched Future of Defence UCITS ETF (LSE: NATO). Bailey explains the idea behind the fund and what makes it unique, emphasising the fact that it will only include companies based in NATO member states or within the broader NATO+ group. He also highlights the 50/50 weighting of the fund between traditional defence companies and those focused on cybersecurity - a field of conflict that Bailey says is growing quickly in importance.

tutorrio data engineering leerprogramma opent voor nieuwe aanmeldingen

Klarrio

De inschrijvingen voor het tutorrio data engineer leerprogramma van Klarrio zijn opnieuw geopend: een uitgebreid, praktijkgericht programma dat beschikbaar is voor iedereen, ongeacht leeftijd, geslacht, formele onderwijsachtergrond in IT of financiële situatie. In slechts negen maanden kunnen deelnemers data engineering onder de knie krijgen met een jobcontract bij het Antwerpse systeemintegratie- en softwareontwikkelingsbedrijf Klarrio. Uit de meest recente Digital Economy and Society Index (DESI 2022) blijkt dat het aandeel ICT-specialisten in België weliswaar iets hoger ligt dan het EU-gemiddelde, maar dat het land nog steeds kampt met een aanzienlijk tekort aan deze professionals. "Hoewel er veel goede initiatieven zijn om het tekort aan vaardigheden in IT aan te pakken, is er onvoldoende aandacht voor data-engineering," zegt Kurt Jonckheer, Chief Executive Officer bij Klarrio. "De vraag naar data engineers zal de komende jaren naar verwachting blijven groeien. Scholen kunnen simpelweg niet voldoende data engineers op de markt brengen met vaardigheden en kennis die voldoen aan de vraag vanuit de industrie. tutorrio fungeert als een katalysator die Klarrio versnelt in het uitbreiden van zijn competentiecentrum in Europa." "Ook al willen veel mensen data-engineering studeren, ze kunnen het zich vaak niet veroorloven of krijgen niet de kans om dat te doen," zegt Bram Stes, Head Coach bij tutorrio. "Klarrio wil dit probleem oplossen met een 'verdien terwijl je leert'-model. Dit betekent dat de geselecteerde kandidaten kunnen deelnemen aan het tutorrio programma zonder collegegeld te hoeven betalen, en ze ontvangen een competitief beloningspakket vanaf de dag dat ze beginnen met hun studie." tutorrio staat open voor iedereen met affiniteit met coderen en een basiskennis van en interesse in informatica, of ze nu aan het begin van hun carrière staan of toe zijn aan een carrièreswitch. Tijdens de cursus kunnen ze een stevige basis in software engineering opbouwen door een unieke combinatie van lessen op locatie die worden gegeven door Klarrio experts, zelfstudie en groepsopdrachten. Wat tutorrio onderscheidt van andere aanbiedingen is Klarrio's toewijding aan open-source software: deelnemers leren de nieuwste, veelgevraagde geavanceerde frameworks te gebruiken. Het curriculum behandelt ook onderwerpen zoals cloud-economie en ethische overwegingen met betrekking tot gegevensbescherming en privacy. De inschrijvingen voor het volgende programma zijn op 4 juli 2023 geopend en zullen eind november sluiten. De lessen beginnen in januari 2024. Geselecteerde kandidaten beginnen hun studie als Klarrio medewerkers en worden junior data engineers na afronding van het programma.

tutorrio Data Engineering Learning Program Opens for New Applications

Klarrio

Applications are once again open for Klarrio’s tutorrio data engineer learning program—a comprehensive, hands-on training available to every aspiring data engineer with an affinity for coding, regardless of age, gender, formal educational background in IT, or financial situation. In only nine months, participants can master data engineering while already having a job contract with Klarrio, an Antwerp-based systems integration and software development firm. The latest Digital Economy and Society Index ( DESI 2022 ) shows that while the share of ICT specialists in Belgium is slightly higher than the EU average, the country still suffers from a significant shortage of data engineering professionals. “Though there are many great initiatives to tackle the skills shortage in IT, there’s an insufficient focus on data engineering,” says Kurt Jonckheer, Chief Executive Officer of Klarrio. “Demand for data engineers is expected to grow exponentially in the coming years, but most formal education still focuses on data science.” “Schools today cannot bring enough data engineers to the market with the necessary skills and knowledge to meet the current level of industry demand. tutorrio acts as a catalyst for training talented data engineers, accelerating Klarrio in extending its center of competence in Europe.” “Although many people want to study data engineering, they often can’t afford to do so, or they just don’t have the opportunity,” says Bram Stes, Head Coach at tutorrio. “Klarrio aims to solve the problem with an ‘earn while you learn’ model. This means that selected candidates can participate in the tutorrio program without paying a tuition fee, and receive a competitive remuneration package from the day they start their studies.” tutorrio is open to everyone with an affinity for coding, and a basic understanding of and interest in computer science, whether they’re just starting their career or looking for a change.

Nationalized Resources, Major M&A Bids And Rebounding Lithium Prices: Sprott Asset Management’s ETFs Cover Major Critical Minerals

Benzinga

By David Willey, Benzinga Sprott Asset Management, a subsidiary of Sprott Inc. (NYSE: SII), is a leading global exchange-traded funds (ETFs) asset manager with a specialty in precious metals and energy transition investments. Sprott’s line of Energy Transition ETFs invests exclusively in key critical minerals, the natural materials necessary to create, transmit and store clean energy. Investing in these minerals is key to advancing the clean energy transition, a top priority for governments and corporations around the world. Around $1.1 trillion was invested in clean energy in 2022, making it the first year that clean energy investments have matched fossil fuel investments. While around two-thirds of energy globally is still sourced from fossil fuels, the net-zero goals in the Paris Agreement – signed by 195 parties – meaning that at least 80% of energy will need to become sourced by low-carbon alternatives to meet current objectives. Clean energy investment has received a boost recently from the moves made by several countries toward nationalizing their natural resources. Chile, which has the largest lithium reserves in the world and is the second-largest producer of lithium, has begun nationalizing its lithium industry. This follows Mexico’s decision to nationalize its lithium resources last year. Chile’s move will increase government spending on clean energy and will attract foreign investment. Another sign of what a market strategist called “long-term bullish news” in the sector is its aggressive mergers and acquisitions. The largest lithium producer in the world Albemarle (NYSE: ALB) recently made a $3.7 billion buyout offer for mining company Liontown Resources (OTCMKTS: LINR). However, Liontown’s board unanimously rejected the offer, stating that it substantially undervalued the company and its operations, popping the company’s share price and overall interest. The last commodity cycle for M&A in critical minerals was 2006/7. During that time over $100 billion was used for acquisitions of companies involved in nickel, copper, and other minerals. Since the 2000s, the demand for critical minerals has gone up and is expected to continue rapidly increasing until 2040. Sprott’s ETFs Hold Key Positions In Growing Market Sprott Asset Management has a line of ETFs that the company believes have strong positions in the critical mineral market. Its Sprott Energy Transition Materials ETF (NASDAQ: SETM) has 110 holdings and is the only pure-play critical minerals ETF on the market. Parent company Sprott Inc has decades of experience building relationships with key players in the mining industry. This means that SETM includes a roster of mining and other upstream companies. These are well-positioned in the industry, as Sprott says upstream companies are more likely to receive government investment during the transition to clean energy. “2022 was a global wake-up call regarding the importance of energy transition and security,” said John Ciampaglia, CEO of Sprott Asset Management, when the company launched its ETFs in February of 2023. “Due to years of underinvestment, demand for many energy transition materials now outstrips supply. We believe mining companies focused on energy transition minerals are well positioned to benefit from the significant investments that will be required over the coming decades.” Another fund is the Sprott Lithium Miners ETF (NASDAQ: LITP). The only pure-play lithium mining ETF, LITP is also composed of upstream mining companies. This placement will be key in coming years, as demand for lithium may increase by 40 times between 2020 and 2040. The price of lithium has also seen a continuing rebound after its recent dip — up over 70% since April 25th, and expectations are that the price could continue to climb as demand increases. A third Sprott ETF is the Sprott Uranium Miners ETF (NYSE Arca: URNM). Nuclear power, which is dependent on uranium, is a reliable and efficient source of energy. As such it may become a popular alternative for countries looking to replace fossil fuels. URNM had seen an 11.24% year-to-date (YTD) increase as of April 30, outperforming other commodities that declined more than 7%. Other ETFs from Sprott Asset Management include its Junior Copper Miners ETF (NASDAQ: COPJ), Junior Uranium Miners ETF (NASDAQ: URNJ), and its Nickel Miners ETF (NASDAQ: NIKL).
