COMUNICATO STAMPA – CONTENUTO PROMOZIONALE

Air Partner’s private jet and group charter services now operate as Wheels Up across the U.K. and globally, extending the company’s integrated, concierge-level customer experience worldwide

ATLANTA, May 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Wheels Up Experience Inc. (NYSE: UP), a leading provider of on-demand private aviation, today announced the completion of its global brand transition, bringing Air Partner’s private jet and group charter services in the United Kingdom and globally under the Wheels Up brand. The move completes the global integration that began in the United States earlier this year and establishes a unified Wheels Up identity across all key markets.

Alongside the brand transition, Wheels Up has fully launched its integrated, concierge-level customer engagement model in the U.K. Designed to reduce handoffs and strengthen accountability, the model organizes dedicated sales and service teams around the customer journey, from initial inquiry through booking, trip delivery, and ongoing support.

It also allows us to build on more than 65 years of Air Partner heritage as a core strength of the Wheels Up platform.”

The integrated approach delivers a more consistent customer experience across regions and trip types, gives customers seamless access to the full Wheels Up portfolio, including private jet charter, group charter, and flexible private-commercial travel, enabled by the company’s first-of-its-kind strategic partnership with Delta Air Lines, and strengthens long-term relationships through more coordinated, personalized service.

“Today’s step brings together the best of both organizations under one global brand,” added Mark Briffa, Chief Sales Officer of Wheels Up and former Chief Executive Officer of Air Partner. “For our customers throughout the world, this means access to the same deep expertise they have relied on for decades, now backed by the full scale, fleet, and technology of Wheels Up. It is a stronger proposition on every front, and we are excited for what comes next.”

Air Partner Cargo will also continue to operate under its existing name, maintaining its specialist focus and dedicated expertise in global shipping and courier services.

Hyland Debuts its New Partner Program Designed to Scale the Agentic Enterprise

Immediapress — Wed, 27 May 2026 14:32:00 +0200

COMUNICATO STAMPA – CONTENUTO PROMOZIONALE

Hyland rebuilds its partner program to reduce friction, align execution, and move agentic AI from experimentation to enterprise scale execution

CLEVELAND, May 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Hyland, a global leader in enterprise content management (ECM) and the pioneer of the content-powered agentic enterprise, today announced the launch of the Hyland Global Partner Network. This reimagined partner program is designed to help partners confidently build the next generation of the agentic enterprise, powered by Hyland’s trusted foundation of content intelligence, industry specific AI, and enterprise grade governance. Built for modern SaaS, cloud adoption, and autonomous operations, the program unifies Hyland’s global partner ecosystem under a single, consistent framework to reduce friction, increase transparency, and accelerate shared growth.

“At a time when enterprises are evolving how work gets done, partners are no longer just routes to market, they’re essential collaborators of the future,” said Nanette Lazina, senior vice president of global channels & OEMs at Hyland. “The Hyland Global Partner Network reflects a clear commitment: to build the world’s most trusted and engaged partner ecosystem and to make Hyland the easiest company to partner with globally as we lay the foundation for the agentic enterprise.”

A Program Designed for the Way Modern Enterprises Grow

The Hyland Global Partner Network is intentionally structured to align with how modern partners operate today, and how they want to grow tomorrow. Inspired by leading SaaS ecosystems, the program delivers a clear, tiered, and globally scalable model that reinforces trust, belonging, and long-term collaboration.

Key elements of the program include:

“By simplifying how we engage, aligning outcomes, and giving partners the tools and transparency they need to scale, the Hyland Global Partner Network strengthens how we go to market together,” said Andrew Steane, vice president of global partners program at Hyland. “It enables our partners to focus on what matters most, helping customers move faster and realize the real value our AI-first technologies and solutions.”

Rather than forcing partners into a single path, the program emphasizes flexibility and modularity, enabling partners to expand their role with Hyland over time as their business evolves.

Built to Reduce Friction and Inspire Pride

Hyland developed the Global Partner Network around a set of guiding principles that shape every aspect of the program: reduce business friction, be consistent and transparent, build mutual commitment, and scale with simplicity. These principles extend beyond structure into how partners experience Hyland day-to-day, from synchronized training and enablement to shared planning, co‑selling, and customer success motions.

“The Hyland Global Partner Network represents exactly the kind of evolution the market needs right now as customers move from isolated automation to intelligent, governed outcomes at scale,” said Matt Charlson, CEO of DataBank. “This new program makes it easier for partners like DataBank to collaborate deeply with Hyland, co‑innovate with confidence, and deliver measurable success for customers as they build the agentic enterprise.”

The new program introduces a consistent, transparent partner economic model that rewards meaningful contribution and performance rather than single transactions. Partners benefit from competitive base discounts with earned upside tied to measurable outcomes such as deal registration, growth, and new customer acquisition, along with flexible incentives designed to evolve as market conditions and partner strategies change. This model ensures strong alignment between partner actions, customer value, and Hyland’s strategic priorities, especially accelerating cloud adoption and the Content Innovation Cloud™ to help customers power the agentic enterprise.

And in return, this gives partners clear visibility into how success is defined, earned, and scaled, reinforcing trust and predictability across the ecosystem.

Laying the Foundation for the Agentic Enterprise

As enterprises move from static workflows to intelligent, autonomous operations, Hyland sees partners as essential to turning AI innovation into real-world customer outcomes. The Hyland Global Partner Network is a critical operating model for that next phase, enabling partners to design, build, deploy, and manage intelligent solutions on Hyland’s platform while delivering consistent value at scale.

Merach S29R2: la cyclette autoalimentata che libera gli utenti dagli abbonamenti fitness mensili

Immediapress — Wed, 27 May 2026 13:47:49 +0200

COMUNICATO STAMPA – CONTENUTO PROMOZIONALE

LONDRA, 26 maggio 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Le fit bike connesse spesso richiedono abbonamenti mensili continuativi anche molto tempo dopo l’acquisto dell’hardware, ma la nuova Merach S29R2 adotta un approccio diverso. Combina funzionamento autoalimentato, resistenza automatica intelligente e connettività opzionale tramite app, incluso il supporto per piattaforme di terze parti popolari come Zwift e Kinomap, senza vincolare le funzionalità principali a un abbonamento obbligatorio. Progettata per un uso domestico flessibile, rende gli allenamenti accessibili e senza abbonamento.

Libertà senza fili in qualsiasi stanza

Ciò che distingue la S29R2 dalle altre smart bike è la sua indipendenza dalle prese di corrente. Utilizzando un sistema di generazione integrato, la bici converte l’energia della pedalata nella potenza necessaria per alimentare i suoi componenti elettronici e il display integrato, eliminando la necessità di prese a muro, cavi di ricarica o sostituzioni della batteria.

Con la prima corsa del pedale, il display LCD si attiva automaticamente, mostrando i dati relativi alle prestazioni tra cui tempo, velocità, distanza, calorie bruciate e livello di resistenza. Grazie alle ruote anteriori di trasporto e a una configurazione senza fili, la fit bike può essere facilmente spostata da una stanza all’altra, sia per un allenamento veloce in soggiorno che per una pedalata più lunga vicino alla finestra del balcone.

Resistenza intelligente che risponde in tempo reale

Invece di affidarsi a una tradizionale manopola manuale per la regolazione della resistenza, l’S29R2 utilizza un sistema di resistenza elettronica controllato tramite i pulsanti sul display integrato o i programmi di allenamento basati sull’app. La manopola meccanica rimanente funziona esclusivamente come comando di frenata e arresto di emergenza.

Quando è collegata a piattaforme di ciclismo virtuale compatibili, la fit bike regola automaticamente la resistenza per adattarsi ai cambiamenti del terreno in tempo reale, rispondendo in meno di tre secondi per simulare salite, discese e condizioni di guida mutevoli. Il sistema include anche sette programmi di allenamento automatici preimpostati.

Progettata per il fitness quotidiano a casa

La Merach S29R2 è stata lanciata il 26 aprile 2026 ed è disponibile su merachfit.de al prezzo consigliato al pubblico (RRP) di 659,99 €. I prezzi su Amazon possono variare.

Informazioni su Merach

Fondata nel 2018, Merach sviluppa attrezzature per il fitness domestico connesse e prodotti per il benessere destinati a consumatori in oltre 50 paesi. L’azienda impiega più di 1.000 persone e dal 2021 fornisce attrezzature alle squadre sportive nazionali cinesi, anche in occasione dei Giochi Olimpici di Tokyo, Pechino e Parigi.

Sicurezza, accordo tra Comune e vigilanza privata

Giovanni Fiorentino — Wed, 27 May 2026 12:50:15 +0200

AGLIANA – E’ stata presentato in Comune, ad Agliana, il nuovo progetto “Agliana più Sicura“. Un piano che, spiegano il sindaco Luca Benesperi e la giunta, si pone l’obiettivo di intervenire sulla sicurezza ed in particolare di contrastare il degrado nel centro cittadino. L’amministrazione comunale ha stipulato un contratto di quattro mesi con la vigilanza privata di Sicuritalia, per una spesa di circa 6mila euro.

Un milione di euro per l’apicoltura toscana: al via i finanziamenti per la campagna 2026-2027

Wed, 27 May 2026 12:16:42 +0200

La giunta regionale della Toscana ha dato ufficialmente il via alla campagna apistica per l’annualità 2026-2027, approvando una delibera che mette a disposizione del settore un budget complessivo di un milione di euro.

Lo stanziamento viaggerà su due binari paralleli. Più della metà dei fondi sarà affidata alle associazioni di categoria maggiormente rappresentative, con lo scopo di finanziare le attività di aggiornamento professionale, l’assistenza tecnica alle aziende, la promozione e le strategie di difesa dalle malattie e dai parassiti. La quota restante andrà invece a supportare le azioni dirette dei singoli apicoltori, i quali potranno impiegare le risorse per acquistare macchinari e sistemi di gestione, ripopolare gli sciami, razionalizzare le transumanze, lottare contro le patologie e garantire l’alimentazione di soccorso agli alveari qualora si verifichino crisi climatiche accertate da Ismea e certificate dal Ministero.

Per il presidente della Regione, Eugenio Giani, si tratta di una misura di vitale importanza per il territorio: “L’apicoltura rappresenta un presidio fondamentale per la biodiversità, la tutela dell’ambiente e la qualità delle produzioni agricole toscane. Con questo milione di euro confermiamo l’impegno della Regione nel sostenere concretamente un comparto strategico, aiutando le aziende ad affrontare le difficoltà legate ai cambiamenti climatici e alla diffusione delle patologie degli alveari”.

Un concetto condiviso e ampliato dall’assessore all’agricoltura, Leonardo Marras: “Investire sull’apicoltura significa investire sull’innovazione, sulla sostenibilità e sulla competitività delle nostre imprese agricole. Le risorse stanziate consentiranno sia di rafforzare il lavoro delle associazioni di categoria sia di sostenere direttamente gli apicoltori negli interventi necessari a migliorare la produzione e la gestione aziendale”.

Per accedere ai contributi, gli operatori dovranno attendere l’imminente pubblicazione dei bandi attuativi e presentare la propria domanda esclusivamente attraverso il portale telematico ARTEA. Le prospettive per i richiedenti si preannunciano rosee, forte dei dati registrati nelle stagioni precedenti. Nelle scorse campagne, infatti, le istanze dei singoli produttori hanno sempre ottenuto una copertura finanziaria totale, mentre i progetti associativi sono stati sostenuti per oltre l’80 per cento. Più in generale, l’erogazione effettiva delle risorse complessive si è sempre mantenuta al di sopra dell’85 per cento rispetto alle assegnazioni iniziali di bilancio.

Pistoia, mimetica e ‘Carta Esercito’ per ingannare gli anziani: la fuga sul Suv a noleggio finisce in carcere

REDAZIONE — Wed, 27 May 2026 11:41:21 +0200

PISTOIA – La comunità pistoiese si dimostra ancora una volta un ostacolo insormontabile per i malintenzionati. Un vile tentativo di raggiro, architettato nei minimi dettagli nella frazione di Bottegone, si è infatti ritorto contro i suoi stessi creatori, conclusosi con l’arresto in flagranza di due “pendolari del crimine” grazie all’incredibile sangue freddo della vittima designata.

Il fatto risale al pomeriggio del 25 maggio, in un contesto urbano già in stato di massima allerta: nelle ore precedenti, infatti, il centralino dell’Arma aveva registrato una raffica di segnalazioni per tentativi di truffa analoghi andati a vuoto, oltre a inquietanti avvistamenti di persone in tenuta mimetica per le vie della città.

Intorno alle ore 15,30, il telefono fisso di un 63enne residente a Bottegone ha squillato. Dall’altro capo del filo, un uomo si è qualificato come appartenente ai Carabinieri, raccontando una storia drammatica: il figlio del cittadino pistoiese era rimasto coinvolto in un grave incidente stradale con feriti. Per evitargli immediate e pesanti conseguenze con la giustizia, il finto militare ha preteso il pagamento di almeno 4.500 euro, da saldare in contanti o in gioielli. Per rendere la minaccia più credibile, il truffatore ha aggiunto che era stato il giovane stesso a svelare dove fossero custoditi i valori in casa, preannunciando l’arrivo a domicilio di un collega per il ritiro del bottino.

Il piano criminale, tuttavia, aveva una falla colossale: il 63enne non ha alcun figlio. Compreso immediatamente l’inganno, il cittadino non si è fatto prendere dal panico. Per non far saltare la copertura, ha assecondato l’interlocutore mantenendo attiva la chiamata sul telefono fisso e, usando contemporaneamente il proprio cellulare, ha lanciato l’allarme al 112.

La risposta delle forze dell’ordine è stata fulminea. I militari della Sezione Radiomobile della Compagnia di Pistoia, congiuntamente ai colleghi della Stazione di Agliana, hanno circondato la zona, piazzandosi in osservazione sia dentro che fuori dall’immobile. Poco dopo, la rete si è chiusa attorno a un Suv Nissan Qashqai, risultato noleggiato a Striano (in provincia di Napoli).

Gli occupanti del veicolo, un uomo del 1985 con precedenti specifici e una donna del 1992, entrambi originari del Napoletano, sono stati bloccati. La perquisizione sul posto ha fatto emergere tre smartphone, capi di abbigliamento mimetico e una ‘Carta Esercito’ intestata alla 32enne, la quale ha provato a giustificarsi affermando di usarla per l’accesso ai circoli militari.

I due sono stati arrestati per tentata truffa aggravata in concorso. Dopo le procedure di rito disposte dall’Autorità Giudiziaria, l’uomo è stato tradotto nel carcere di Pistoia, mentre la complice è stata portata nella casa circondariale di Sollicciano a Firenze. L’auto è stata rimossa dal Soccorso Aci locale, mentre tutti i reperti sono passati nelle mani dell’Ufficio Corpi di Reato del Tribunale pistoiese.

Nel complimentarsi per l’ottima sinergia tra cittadinanza e istituzioni, il Comando Provinciale dei Carabinieri rinnova l’appello alla popolazione: nessuna forza di polizia o ente statale chiederà mai la consegna a domicilio di soldi o preziosi. In caso di chiamate sospette, la regola d’oro resta una sola: riagganciare e chiamare subito il 112.

Newel Health e Gerresheimer lanciano una collaborazione strategica per supportare le pharma nell’era delle terapie digitali integrate

Immediapress — Wed, 27 May 2026 11:26:39 +0200

COMUNICATO STAMPA – CONTENUTO PROMOZIONALE

La partnership combina la piattaforma H-Core e le competenze di Newel Health nello sviluppo di software medicali digitali con l’esperienza di Gerresheimer nei sistemi di somministrazione dei farmaci, nel confezionamento farmaceutico primario, nei dispositivi connessi e nella digital health.

L’obiettivo è supportare aziende farmaceutiche e biotech nello sviluppo di endpoint digitali, real-world data e soluzioni che integrano farmaco, dispositivo e software medicale in percorsi terapeutici più personalizzati.

BASILEA, Svizzera, 27 maggio 2026/PRNewswire/ — Newel Health, azienda specializzata nella progettazione, sviluppo e gestione di software medicali digitali per partner del settore life sciences, e Gerresheimer, system and solution provider globale per sistemi di somministrazione dei farmaci, dispositivi medici, confezionamento farmaceutico primario e soluzioni di digital health, annunciano una partnership strategica per aiutare aziende farmaceutiche e biotech a sviluppare nuove terapie integrate.

La collaborazione nasce in un momento in cui il settore pharma guarda con crescente interesse a soluzioni capaci di andare oltre il farmaco tradizionale: software medicali, dispositivi connessi, endpoint digitali e dati real-world stanno diventando strumenti sempre più importanti per misurare, personalizzare e supportare la terapia lungo tutto il percorso del paziente.

Con questa partnership, Newel Health e Gerresheimer intendono offrire alle aziende farmaceutiche un modello integrato per sviluppare soluzioni farmaco + dispositivo + digitale, combinando competenze cliniche, tecnologiche, regolatorie, produttive e distributive.

Da un lato, Newel Health porta la propria esperienza nello sviluppo di software medicali digitali, SaMD, algoritmi clinici, analytics abilitati dall’intelligenza artificiale e soluzioni basate sulla piattaforma H-Core. Dall’altro, Gerresheimer contribuisce con la propria esperienza nei sistemi di somministrazione dei farmaci, nel confezionamento farmaceutico primario, nei dispositivi connessi, nella digital health e nei canali di contatto con le farmacie.

Insieme, le due aziende si propongono come partner strategici per le pharma che vogliono integrare endpoint digitali, real-world data e AI nello sviluppo clinico e nella commercializzazione, senza dover costruire internamente un’intera infrastruttura digitale, tecnologica e di dispositivi.

“L’esperienza di Gerresheimer nei sistemi di somministrazione dei farmaci, nella produzione e nei dispositivi connessi, insieme alla competenza scientifica di Newel Health, alla piattaforma H-Core e ai nostri software medicali digitali, supporterà le aziende farmaceutiche nel portare la medicina personalizzata ai pazienti in modo sicuro e affidabile,” ha dichiarato Ervin Ukaj, Chief Executive Officer di Newel Health.

“Combinando la nostra esperienza nei SaMD, nei real-world data e nell’AI con la presenza globale di Gerresheimer, i suoi dispositivi connessi, le competenze nel confezionamento e nella digital health, aiutiamo il settore pharma a progettare e sviluppare endpoint digitali, software medicali certificati e soluzioni integrate farmaco + digitale in diverse aree terapeutiche.”

“La collaborazione con Newel Health rafforza il posizionamento di Gerresheimer come system and solution provider all’intersezione tra farmaco, dispositivo, confezionamento e soluzioni digitali,” ha dichiarato Mithun Ratnakumar, Director, Head of Digitalization & New Business Models di Gerresheimer.

“Insieme, permettiamo alle aziende farmaceutiche di implementare soluzioni conformi, scalabili e pronte all’uso, senza dover costruire o gestire autonomamente l’intera infrastruttura digitale e tecnologica.”

Cosa prevede la partnership

Nell’ambito della collaborazione, Newel Health e Gerresheimer lavoreranno con aziende farmaceutiche e biotech su quattro aree principali.

Endpoint digitali per studi clinici e post-market

La partnership punta a progettare e validare endpoint digitali basati su dati generati da dispositivi connessi e sensori. L’obiettivo è misurare lo stato del paziente in modo più continuo, oggettivo e accurato, sia durante gli studi clinici sia nei contesti post-market.

Software medicali digitali basati su H-Core

Le aziende svilupperanno e gestiranno software medicali digitali costruiti sulla piattaforma H-Core di Newel Health, con funzionalità a supporto del monitoraggio, del decision-making, dell’aderenza terapeutica e del tracciamento dei sintomi.

Queste soluzioni potranno essere allineate a terapie specifiche e a percorsi clinici definiti, con l’obiettivo di supportare il paziente e generare dati utili per sponsor, clinici e partner farmaceutici.

Real-world data e insight guidati dall’AI

Un’altra area chiave riguarda la possibilità di combinare dispositivi connessi, software medicali e infrastrutture dati sicure per generare dataset longitudinali di alta qualità.

Questi dati potranno alimentare analytics avanzati e modelli di intelligenza artificiale, offrendo alle aziende farmaceutiche insight più profondi sul comportamento dei pazienti, sull’aderenza alla terapia e sull’evoluzione della malattia nella vita reale.

Soluzioni integrate farmaco + dispositivo + digitale

La collaborazione prevede anche lo sviluppo di soluzioni integrate attorno al medicinale, in cui le piattaforme connesse di Gerresheimer per la somministrazione dei farmaci e i dispositivi connessi vengono combinati con i software basati su H-Core di Newel Health, i modelli AI e la user experience.

L’obiettivo è creare soluzioni coerenti, sicure e scalabili, capaci di collegare farmaco, dispositivo, dati e supporto digitale in un unico percorso terapeutico.

Questo approccio consente alle aziende farmaceutiche di andare oltre i progetti pilota isolati e costruire asset digitali e di dati replicabili, utilizzabili in diverse aree terapeutiche e in più mercati.

Informazioni su Newel Health

La Toscana dell’agroalimentare sbarca in Polonia: a Varsavia la vetrina delle eccellenze Dop e Igp

Wed, 27 May 2026 11:03:13 +0200

La diplomazia del gusto toscano fa tappa nell’Europa dell’Est. Nella giornata di oggi, 27 maggio, gli spazi del Warsaw Presidential Hotel di Varsavia ospitano un’importante vetrina dedicata all’agroalimentare regionale di altissima fascia. L’obiettivo della Regione Toscana, promotrice e finanziatrice dell’appuntamento, è quello di spingere l’internazionalizzazione delle filiere certificate, creando nuove sponde commerciali e culturali oltre i confini nazionali.

I protagonisti del gusto e il mercato polacco

A rappresentare l’identità culinaria regionale ci sono sei specifici consorzi di tutela: Cinta Senese Dop, Finocchiona Igp, Pecorino Toscano Dop, Prosciutto Toscano Dop, Olio Toscano Igp e Olio Terre di Siena Dop. Queste eccellenze sono la punta di diamante di un sistema produttivo che vanta numeri imponenti, con oltre trentadue marchi tra Dop e Igp nel solo comparto del cibo, a cui si sommano le cinquantotto denominazioni del settore vitivinicolo.

La scelta della Polonia come trampolino di lancio non è casuale. Il Paese rappresenta oggi uno dei bacini europei più dinamici e recettivi per l’esportazione tricolore. I consumatori polacchi mostrano un’attenzione crescente verso la tracciabilità e la qualità dei prodotti agricoli, una sensibilità testimoniata anche dalle cinquanta denominazioni d’origine già riconosciute a livello locale.

Il programma: dalle degustazioni agli accordi commerciali

L’incontro di Varsavia è stato appositamente strutturato per mettere in contatto diretto i produttori con un pubblico di operatori altamente qualificato. Il cuore dell’evento ruota attorno a sessioni di degustazione tecnica che permettono agli ospiti di esplorare le peculiarità territoriali e le tradizioni di ciascuna denominazione.

Il primo momento di approfondimento, focalizzato sui due consorzi dell’olio extravergine, è affidato alla guida di Emiliano Castagna, degustatore ufficiale Airo. La seconda sessione, incentrata sui restanti prodotti tutelati, vede invece la conduzione della chef Cristina Catese, volto noto della televisione locale e presidente della Federazione italiana cuochi in Polonia. La rassegna prosegue poi con una fase strettamente operativa, dedicata agli incontri bilaterali (i cosiddetti incontri ‘B2B’) e alle interviste della stampa, organizzati presso i singoli desk delle aziende per stimolare nuove relazioni utili allo sviluppo sul mercato dell’Est.

L’iniziativa costituisce solo la prima tappa di un più ampio calendario promozionale. La missione si inserisce in un accordo pluriennale siglato tra l’amministrazione regionale e la Camera di commercio di Firenze, con la parte organizzativa curata dall’azienda speciale PromoFirenze in stretta collaborazione con la Camera di Commercio e dell’Industria Italiana in Polonia. Nei prossimi mesi, le istituzioni toscane continueranno ad accompagnare i consorzi verso nuovi appuntamenti sui mercati esteri, con lo scopo di consolidare la competitività delle imprese e valorizzare nel mondo uno stile di vita profondamente legato alla sostenibilità e alla tutela della biodiversità.

Cato Networks Appoints Tristan Elder as Vice President of EMEA Channel to Drive Partner Growth Across Region

Immediapress — Wed, 27 May 2026 09:31:04 +0200

COMUNICATO STAMPA – CONTENUTO PROMOZIONALE

Channel veteran to expand the Cato ecosystem across the EMEA region

TEL AVIV, Israel, May 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Cato Networks, delivering the leading network security platform for the AI era, today announced the appointment of Tristan Elder as Vice President of EMEA Channel. This move underscores Cato’s commitment to scaling its regional partner ecosystem and capitalising on the surging demand for AI security solutions. In this key leadership role, Elder will drive Cato’s EMEA channel initiatives, expanding the company’s partner programme with a strategic focus on global systems integrators, managed service providers, consulting firms and strategic resellers.

Elder joins Cato from ExtraHop Networks, where he led the EMEA channel business. Before ExtraHop, he was part of the early leadership team at CrowdStrike, where he helped build and scale the company’s operations across EMEA during its high-growth years. He brings a proven track record of growing enterprise channel businesses across financial services, government and large enterprise accounts.

This strategic appointment comes at a pivotal time as enterprise demand for AI security expertise intensifies across EMEA. Organisations are increasingly relying on their channel partners for guidance on AI governance, security risk and the secure deployment of AI technologies. Cato provides partners with the scalable foundation to meet this growing demand, enabling them to support enterprise customers across the full deployment and management lifecycle.

“From the first day, I am already seeing huge demand for strategy meetings with existing and new Cato partners,” said Elder. “Coming into a fast-growing channel ecosystem is both wonderful and challenging, and I look forward to working with our partners to make sure we grow together even faster.”

“We are pleased to welcome Tristan to Cato Networks as our new Vice President of EMEA Channel,” said Karl Soderlund, Global Channel Chief at Cato Networks. “What stood out about Tristan is not just his experience, but that he has been through this kind of journey before: building a channel business in a high-growth environment, working closely with partners, and helping teams scale. That perspective is exactly what we need as we continue to grow and invest across the region.”

This appointment reinforces Cato’s strong market trajectory. The company closed 2025 with annual recurring revenue (ARR) exceeding $350 million, a strong 43% year-over-year increase that outperformed the SASE market average. This growth was further fuelled by a $409 million Series G funding round within the past year, which propelled its valuation beyond $4.8 billion and brought total investment to over $1 billion. Additionally, Cato made a strategic acquisition of Aim Security, enhancing its specialised capabilities in securing AI interactions.

For media or partners who would like to meet with Tristan at the upcoming Infosecurity Europe 2026 show in London (June 3-4), see this page.

PingPong partners with Visa to launch Card to Account Payment Solution for global businesses

Immediapress — Wed, 27 May 2026 08:01:38 +0200

COMUNICATO STAMPA – CONTENUTO PROMOZIONALE

PingPong’s new Business Payment Solution Provider (BPSP) offering enables corporate buyers to settle any supplier invoice using their existing commercial card, including suppliers that do not accept card payments, extending working capital by up to 45 days without additional debt. The solution is live in the UK, EU and Hong Kong, with rollout to the US and Singapore scheduled across 2026.

LONDON, May 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — PingPong, the embedded financial infrastructure for global businesses, today announced the launch of Card to Account Payment Solution, a new Business Payment Solution Provider (BPSP) offering developed in partnership with Visa. The solution enables businesses to settle any supplier invoice using their existing commercial credit card, even when the supplier does not accept card payments.

PingPong is one of only three foundational providers chosen by Visa for this BPSP programme, a recognition of PingPong’s licence depth, compliance infrastructure and global payout capability.

Closing the gap between card rails and supplier bank accounts

Mid-market and enterprise finance teams face a familiar squeeze. Bank financing can be expensive and many B2B suppliers, particularly across the EU and UK, do not accept cards. Under a traditional wire transfer cash leaves the business on Day 1 to Day 3, with no way to extend payment terms without straining supplier relationships.

Card to Account Payment Flexibility removes that barrier, allowing buyers to pay by card. The supplier receives the funds as a standard bank transfer, in T+0, T+1 or T+2 for most currencies, exactly as they would under a wire. No supplier onboarding required, no change to the supplier’s workflow, no disruption to the relationship. The buyer retains 45+ days of working capital without taking on debt.

David Messenger, CEO of Global Businesses at PingPong, said “Most B2B suppliers don’t accept cards, which leaves a vast portion of corporate spend stranded outside the most efficient working capital tool businesses already hold. PingPong’s Card to Account solution closes that gap. Partnering with Visa to bring this to market reflects the standard of compliance, capital safeguards and global reach that serious commercial card programmes now demand. It is also the next step in scaling our embedded financial infrastructure into the corridors and product verticals where global businesses actually move money.”

PingPong x Visa partnership

Trust in B2B payments is not just an attribute, it’s our core product. CFOs and treasury teams moving high-value invoices through a new payment rail need confidence that the provider sitting between buyer and supplier is regulated, capitalised and operationally resilient. Our partnership with Visa provides that confidence at the point of decision.

Lucy Demery, SVP Head of Visa Commercial Solutions, Europe said:

“Businesses need more flexibility in how and when they pay. Through our partnership with PingPong, we’re extending the value of commercial card rails beyond traditional acceptance, enabling secure payments and improving working capital for buyers and suppliers.”

About PingPong

Since 2015, we’ve been building the embedded financial payment infrastructure for global commerce. Our compliance-first payment solutions deliver real-time processing, transparent pricing, and regulatory coverage across 60+ licences for secure global growth. From our New York founding, we’ve scaled to 40 offices worldwide with 1,500+ employees, processing over $350 billion for enterprises and startups expanding internationally.

About Visa

Visa (NYSE: V) is a world leader in digital payments, facilitating transactions between consumers, merchants, financial institutions and government entities across more than 200 countries and territories.

Perhaps for children, language has never been a prerequisite for connection. Through play and shared experiences, natural connections formed effortlessly, with post-event surveys showing high levels of satisfaction.

Of ANO-NE Kids Club users, 51% are inbound families from more than 30 countries and regions. Since opening, staff have repeatedly observed how naturally children from different countries connect beyond language or cultural differences. During this event, those moments became especially visible through activities encouraging cooperation, shared play and communication among children who had only just met.

“Watching the children play together, I felt that adults may be the ones who become too conscious of language barriers,” said Mao Mochizuki of the Management Planning Office at Cosmos Hotel Management. “Perhaps children are natural travelers in ways adults sometimes forget. Or perhaps it is because spaces like ANO-NE Kids Club exist that these kinds of moments can happen.”

Post-event surveys showed an average satisfaction score of 9 out of 10. Parents also expressed appreciation for being able to spend time independently while knowing their children were enjoying a safe and engaging experience.

As family travel continues to evolve, more parents are seeking experiences that support both their children’s needs and their own time during their journey. “What ANO-NE Kids Club hopes to do is actually very simple,” said Mochizuki. “We want parents to truly take a breath during their trip, while children create their own memories with friends their own age.”
