Putting The Supply Back In Supply Chain Integration System? — Nisun Claims To Have Solutions To The Crisis

Nisun International Enterprise Development Group Co., Ltd

Disruptions to the supply chain have caused massive economic damage in the past couple of years. Restrictions on global supply networks meant that the average country lost over $180 billion to supply chain disruptions while the U.S. lost $228 billion, according to a recent survey. However, these setbacks may also provide potential new opportunities as those both upstream and downstream in the supply chain seek new innovations. Some U.S. companies that managed to protect their supply chain despite global disruptions reportedly include technology company Cisco Systems Inc. and pharmaceutical company Johnson & Johnson. Nisun International Enterprise Development Group Co. Ltd. is one example of a company looking to fill the supply chain management vacuum. Based in China, Nisun aims at a sophisticated supply chain integration (SCI) through an ecosystem that it reports is made to fulfill all the financial and logistical needs of partnering companies. It is seeking to solve the integration of industry and finance to create a supply chain system serving as an essential intermediary in both upstream and downstream transactions. It also has the goal of helping small- to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which it says it accomplishes by providing SMEs with capital access through a closed-loop financial technology platform. Learn More about Nisun International Enterprise Development Group Co., Ltd by gaining access to the latest research report! Linking Businesses For A Stronger Supply Chain Nisun is focusing its partnership efforts in five industries: e-commerce, gold, coal, chemical and agriculture, aiming to create a network out of this $305 billion cluster. The company seeks to provide collaborators with logistics and warehousing along with modernized financial services. One example of SME collaboration Nisun provides is with the merchants in the Henan Wanbang International Agricultural Product Logistics Park. Fintech (Shanghai) Supply Chain Management Co. Ltd ( Fintech Digital,) a supply-chain management subsidiary of Nisun, serves agricultural merchants by providing them with financial and logistical solutions. The downstream merchants place purchase applications, which Fintech Digital then negotiates and fulfills with its network of upstream suppliers, ensuring quick response to merchant product needs. Nisun also partnered with two companies to help with streamlining and digitizing the agricultural goods supply chain in late 2021. Through its partnerships with Sichuan Wanglianxing Agricultural Technology Development Co. Ltd. and Henan Xingyue Communication Technology Co. Ltd., Nisun hopes to bring its supply-chain expertise and resources to China’s National Rural Revitalization Program and modernization of the Chinese agricultural industry. A subsidiary of Fintech Digital and a controlled affiliate of Nisan, Fanlunke Supply Chain Management (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. signed a deal with Yunnan Pinhutang Distillery Co. Ltd., which brings them into the Chinese medical market. This supply-chain and procurement contract, with the plan to expand to sales, hopes to maximize the upstream and downstream market trading and meet the greater demand for Pinhutang products, which are available on online stores such as JD.com Inc. and Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. Through these strategic partnerships, Nisun may help produce solutions to the supply-chain crisis and make itself a bigger player in the supply chain. It claims its current success will continue into the future and maintain its 74% annual growth year on year. Similar companies in the supply chain and fintech space include NETSOL Technologies NTWK, 360 DigiTech, Inc. QFIN, Katapult Holdings KPLT, and FinVolution Gr FINV To learn more about Nisun, click here.

Lucidity makes cloud storage smarter as it secures $5.3m funding round

Lucidity

Nearly half of businesses are migrating their data to the cloud to create a competitive advantage and remain innovative. However, Cloud comes with its own set of challenges if not managed well. And to deliver the elusive ROI from cloud, cloud storage orchestration platform Lucidity has been helping businesses get truly cloud-native. The startup is today announcing a $5.3M seed funding round led by AlphaWave Investments with participation from Beenext, Blume Ventures, BoldCapital, NuVentures and Sparrow Capital to help ramp its international expansion plans. This funding round follows a $500k pre-seed round led by Beenext in 2021 along with 10+ super angels. Lucidity has built a “NoOps” orchestration layer that can sit on top of cloud storage making storage faster, efficient and cheaper, while enabling cloud-native functionalities. Using Lucidity, businesses will be able to unlock their block storage capabilities making it 70% cheaper and 10X faster with zero code changes and at the click of a button. Lucidity takes care of any hassle of storage provisioning and eliminates any potential downtime which could lead to business and reputation loss. Lucidity was envisioned by Vatsal Rastogi, who had gained extensive experience working as a developer at Azure, Microsoft and then later, working closely with the infrastructure team at Swiggy. He teamed up with Nitin Bhaduria, who has spearheaded the growth of multiple SaaS platforms from scratch, with his last role as the Head of Sales in Tracxn. Together, they established the company in 2021, as the duo brought Lucidity to life. Nitin Bhadauria, co-founder of Lucidity, commented: “Post the pandemic, businesses flocked aggressively to the cloud to ensure business continuity. However, the vast majority resorted to a ‘lift & shift of data’ approach for a quick migration. Whilst this provided a quick fix, they remain elusive of the ROI promised by cloud vendors. Lucidity is unlocking the ROI of cloud storage at a click of a button. “70% of the storage costs are wasted today because of manual cloud management and risks of downtime. And to add to that challenge, the skill curve required to adopt a cloud-first culture with the teams becomes an added barrier. Lucidity is solving these problems and much more”. Dirk van Quaquebeke, Managing Partner at BeeNext, commented: "Lucidity positions themselves at the interesting intersection of what I call cloud transient where large enterprises transition from on-prem to cloud and there is a lot of slack to be captured in terms of value. Lucidity is building something that will have a very strong GTM fit in a market that is extremely large and global in nature. How Lucidity identifies and solidifies their problem statement alongside their clients gives us a lot of comfort in them." Andrew C. Martinez, Alpha Wave Global, stated, ”Lucidity makes cloud storage management, not only more streamlined and reliable, but also increases cloud storage performance while saving a significant amount of money. What was more impressive for us is that this wasn't just a theoretical concept, but rather something on full display as proof of concepts with customers who are now onboarding on the Lucidity platform” About Lucidity Lucidity is the most trusted software-defined storage NoOps orchestrator. It unlocks cloud block storage capabilities making cloud storage reliable, performant, and economical with zero effort. With its industry-first multi-cloud “Auto-Scaler”, Lucidity helps Enterprises, DevOps and FinOps teams instantly observe their block storage to become 70% cheaper, 10X faster and eliminate downtime with zero code changes.Lucidity enables cloud optimization even for your legacy applications, as infra ops teams can now unlock cloud-native functionalities for block storage apps without any code changes. IT managers, VP Infrastructure, IT Directors and leading CIOs alike have all trusted Lucidity in becoming cloud-ready and have adopted the NoOps cloud experience. If you would like to be a part of the NoOps cloud experience as well, visit us at www.lucidity.cloud Contact Details Lucidity Bilal Mahmood +44 7714 007257 b.mahmood@stockwoodstrategy.com Company Website https://www.lucidity.cloud/

SHENZHEN, CHINA - Media OutReach - 8 September 2022 - Following the release of ColorOS 13, OPPO today unveils a new Aquamorphic Wallpaper[i] in collaboration with the estate of Op Art artist Julian Stanczak (1928-2017) with Stanczak’s work Blue Diffusion # 2 on OPPO Theme Store Art+ Channel.

FutureTrack® by Union Savings Bank, a Goal-Based Planning Service Offers Unique Combination of Personal Coaching, Financial Insights and Digital Tools

Union Savings Bank

Union Savings Bank, a Danbury, Conn.-based community bank, announces the availability of “FutureTrack® by Union Savings Bank,” a goal-based planning service for customers. The program is designed to help customers achieve a variety of life goals – home ownership, starting a family, college planning, saving and budgeting, retirement and more – through one-on-one support with personal FutureTrack coaches and on-going financial insights and digital tools for managing finances. “We know people have diverse financial goals at varying stages of life, and each person defines success differently. But going it alone can be daunting,” said Rick Judd, USB’s Executive Vice President overseeing FutureTrack. “FutureTrack is an opportunity for people to finally feel like they are not tackling financial decisions on their own. Our FutureTrack coaches will help guide people so they can tackle life goals one at a time, building financial habits that will help them throughout their financial journey.” Judd also stated that with inflation rising and recent studies showing that nearly two-thirds of Americans are considered financially unhealthy, FutureTrack is more important than ever. The first step with FutureTrack (click to view:15 videos) is to book an appointment with the FutureTrack team for an assessment. A FutureTrack coach will ask questions about the person’s current financial situation, future goals, both short- and long-term. From there, the coach and “FutureTracker” set a plan on how to achieve those goals. The FutureTrackers will then receive frequent check-ins, educational materials, and recommendations to support them on their unique financial journey. To book an appointment, people can visit any USB branch, book an appointment online, or call the Customer Service Center at 866-872-1866. To become a “FutureTracker” and receive ongoing support, a relationship with USB is required, which enables the customer to take full advantage of the digital tools. Judd also explained that FutureTrack provides the perfect combination of human and technological support that people desire. “Access to ongoing coaching with an assigned FutureTrack coach with regular check-ins, our artificial intelligence (AI) tool like Spending Insights that help monitor spending habits, and USB Round-Up that enables customers to round up USB debit card purchases and automatically move that money into a savings account, plus educational information – all work together to help customers achieve their goals. We know there is a significant need for this kind of service based on industry research and feedback from our customers, and we don’t believe there’s anything quite like FutureTrack in the local community bank space.” According to Forbes “Most consumers are ’goal-oriented’ and focused on long-term savings goals. When it comes to those goals…people are hungry for more help reaching them and personalized advice at key moments. Increasingly, that help could come from artificial intelligence. A recent Accenture survey of North American banking customers discovered 46 percent are willing to use ‘robo-advice,’ 40 percent would consider switching banks to get more personalized service, and 39 percent said they want their financial institution to provide ‘actionable financial advice on a proactive, real-time basis.’” Judd adds, “This is not a one-and-done program ─ it is an ongoing understanding of the customer and their financial goals. FutureTrack is here for our customers throughout their journey, no matter the changes along the way.” In terms of the certified coaches, there are currently 23 Union Savings Bank FutureTrack coaches, and the Bank has more currently going through the certification process. The plan is to add more coaches on an on-going basis, as well. Each coach has completed extensive training through BVS Performance Solutions, a leading financial training company. The coaches are also trained to help customers navigate the various products and services Union Savings Bank offers and can direct customers to various subject matter experts, like mortgage loan originators, financial advisors, and business banking loan officers. Judd said that FutureTrack is yet another example of how the bank is using technology combined with personal service to benefit customers in their daily lives. “This service is designed to enhance the customer experience and help our customers feel like they have a trusted partner they can rely on. It’s less transactional and more relationship-driven and ultimately helps improve financial well-being, all of which are part of our mission.” For more information, please visit FutureTrack www.unionsavings.com/futuretrack. Established in 1866 and headquartered in Danbury, Conn., Union Savings Bank is a $3.0 billion mutual bank dedicated to being the bank of choice. As a full-service financial institution, Union Savings Bank provides banking, mortgage, investment, trust and insurance products throughout western Connecticut with 25 offices in Bethel, Brookfield, Canton, Danbury, Goshen, Kent, Litchfield, Marble Dale, Monroe, New Fairfield, New Milford, Newtown, Ridgefield, Roxbury, Southbury, Torrington and Washington Depot.

Secure Like Swiss? The Data Privacy Company That Reports Globalizing Its Currency Options

Sekur Private Data Ltd

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, more people than ever are choosing to stay home, according to a new Pew Study. This may raise additional concerns around cybersecurity if more and more aspects of life go virtual. In 2021 the cybersecurity industry saw over $50 billion in spending worldwide, and this number is forecasted to increase as more work is done from home and more measures are needed to protect both company and private data. Individuals and businesses around the globe may need solutions that work locally for them. Sekur Private Data Ltd. (OTCQX: SWISF) is one company that reports trying to find innovative solutions to these data protection problems. Companies that are dependent on U.S.-based cloud servers such as Google Cloud, offered by Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL), are also subject to a subpoena under the 2019 Clarifying Lawful Overseas Use of Data (CLOUD) Act. Sekur is hosted in Switzerland to take advantage of the strict Swiss data privacy laws. It harnesses what its website describes as “proprietary military-grade encryption security” to protect its private, International Standards Organization (ISO)-certified data centers. Sekur says its platform provides secure messaging and email services as well as data storage, document management, and password management service — and that it also partners with companies like PartnerStack and Ingram Micro Inc. (NYSE: IM) to host a Sekur Business Suite platform. It has recently expanded its operations, hoping to make its platform an appealing international option. Currencies And Chats Both Part Of A Global Push Sekur entered the American market in July 2021 and in July 2022 launched its multicurrency, multilingual platform. This was part of Sekur’s global mass market launch to make it available for both private and business use internationally. Sekur’s multicurrency platform enables customers to avoid paying the often-expensive bank and credit card fees on currency exchange. It also creates a more seamless experience, ensuring users can use the platform in their own language. Since Sekur launched the multicurrency platform, it has expanded to include eight currencies from over 30 countries. These are USD, CAD, AUD, NZD, SGD, CHF, EUR and GBP. This gives customers in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Switzerland, any Eurozone country and the United Kingdom the ability to pay for the platform with their local money. Customers from outside these regions are still able to access the platform and will be charged in U.S. dollars. Sekur also plans to make its platform available in Japanese and accept JPY. Sekur saw a sales increase of 5,600% in the first quarter of 2022 when compared with the first quarter of 2021, while subscriber signups for the platform jumped by over 1,900%. This growth seems to be an indication that the multicurrency offering should foster even more growth Internationally, as Sekur is growing its global footprint.. Another component of Sekur’s platform, Chat-By-Invite, has as of August, enabled chats in 61 countries. Chat-By-Invite allows Sekur users to communicate securely via SekurMessenger by sending an SMS or email invitation to non-Sekur users. After hosting the conversation, the user who initiated the chat can delete the conversation from all users and at the server source. This initiative has been used by Sekur customers to communicate with people in Argentina, Australia, Austria, Bahrain, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Croatia, Cyprus, Csech Republic, Denmark, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Guatemala, Honduras, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Kuwait, Lichtenstein, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Malta, Mexico, Monaco, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Norway, Oman, Panama, Peru, Poland, Portugal, Qatar, Romania, Saudi Arabia, Serbia, Singapore, Slovakia, Spain, Sri Lanka, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States of America, and Vatican City. This list suggests that Sekur may see future growth in South and Central America, where it already has seen some success, and Europe, Asia, Australasia and the Middle East. Sekur Private Data Ltd. is a Cybersecurity and Internet privacy provider of Swiss hosted solutions for secure communications and secure data management. The Company distributes a suite of secure cloud-based storage, disaster recovery, document management, encrypted e-mails, and secure communication tools.
