SINGAPORE, Nov 19, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Top executives from the IT distribution and technology vendor sectors convened today at the inaugural GTDC APJ-Summit 2024 to discuss the current position and future outlook of these critical communities. The Summit underscored the essential role distributors play in scaling emerging technology sales and adoption and developing new opportunities through digital marketplaces and alliances with hyperscalers.Frank Vitagliano emphasizes the rising value of distribution as he opens the inaugural GTDC Summit APJ.The vast scale and economic and cultural diversity of the APJ region necessitates local expertise. As vendors adopt varied approaches to managing channels, they are increasingly relying on distributors to support emerging markets while focusing internal resources on more mature communities. This strategy provides greater reach, especially in areas where direct coverage would be inefficient, and represents a broader shift towards optimizing orchestration through partnerships."Distributors are ideally positioned to bridge complex regional and in-country dynamics, with local representatives who understand cultural and language nuances to best support the objectives of their vendors and partners. Focusing on enablement programs and relationship-building allows distributors to create strategic value that ensures the successful adoption of advanced technologies across diverse APAC markets," said Frank Vitagliano, CEO, GTDC.IT spending across Southeast Asia and India is accelerating, driven by SMBs embracing digital transformation through cloud software, cybersecurity, and logistics investments. This digital shift generates increased demand for cloud infrastructure, managed services, and robust security solutions. Simultaneously, according to IDC, AI adoption is further fueling the region's technological momentum, with spending in this area expected to reach $78 billion by 2027, with a 25% annual growth rate. Distributors empower those advances while transforming the customer experience and operational efficiencies across these key sectors.Vendors also rely on distributors to meet the rising demand for AI, sales, and technical support as the region struggles with talent shortages, especially in these key areas.Distributors are meeting these demands while unlocking new opportunities using advanced data analytics. Channelnomics CEO Larry Walsh emphasized these organizations' capabilities for identifying "white space" and expanding partner networks. "While data provides direction, its true value lies in transforming insights into actionable strategies for partners. Distributors are pivotal in redefining go-to-market models, guiding partners through business-enhancing engagements and maximizing channel potential."Other Memorable Highlights from Summit APJThe summit focused on the changing dynamics of IT distribution, emphasizing the increasing importance of Southeast Asia and India in the global tech sector. Key sessions included:John Marrett from the EIU spoke to the rapidly expanding marketplace and described the ways technical innovation is changing businesses and communities. From shifts in monetary and fiscal policies to currency fluctuations and international financial institutions' activities, he highlighted the impact of these movements on the APJ's IT community.Avneesh Saxena of IDC showed how innovation affects global IT relationships and creates new opportunities for the channel. He emphasized the key industry trends, barriers, and investments and explored the evolving dynamics between partners, vendors, and distributors.Larry Walsh of Channelnomics examined the often-overlooked pieces of the vendor-distributor relationship and hit on other key findings of their recently released study with GTDC. Focused on the Asia-Pacific region, the new report shows vendors how to maximize the value of their distribution relationships.Vitagliano also moderated a panel discussion with senior distribution executives, including William Ong,VST ECS;V.S. Hariharan, Redington Limited; Luis Lourenco, Ingram Micro; Jaideep Malhotra, TD SYNNEX; and Patrick Aronson, Westcon-Comstor.

SINGAPORE, Nov 18, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Despite Singapore’s abundant sunlight, Vitamin D deficiency remains a prevalent health issue, affecting millions of people. This deficiency significantly compromises bone health, leading to osteoporosis, a “silent disease” due to its subtle onset. Research indicates that bone health begins to decline at age 25, making it crucial to address this issue, especially as Singapore’s population continues to age. The urgency to combat this silent epidemic has never been greater.As sedentary lifestyles and poor dietary choices become increasingly common, the impact of osteoporosis is alarming: one in three women and one in five men over the age of 50 in Singapore are affected. Known as the “sunshine vitamin,” vitamin D plays a critical role in efficient calcium absorption, essential for maintaining bone density and preventing osteopenia and osteoporosis. Without adequate vitamin D, the body struggles to absorb calcium, increasing risk of fractures and leading to deteriorating bone health.In line with World Osteoporosis Day on 20 October, LAC (pronounced as L-A-C) is dedicated to raising awareness about the importance of bone health and empowering individuals to take preventive measures to optimise their bone density. By incorporating calcium-rich foods or supplements, ensuring adequate Vitamin D intake and regular physical activity, individuals can significantly reduce the risk of osteoporosis.LAC FullCal® combines calcium, magnesium and Vitamin D in a golden ratio, making it vital for maintaining strong bones, teeth and muscle function. This unique formula not only reduces the risk of osteoporosis but also improves calcium absorption, making it an excellent option for maintaining optimal bone health. With its all-in-one solution, individuals no longer need to rely on three separate supplements to achieve the same benefits, offering both enhanced convenience and cost savings.LAC Joint Protec®, formulated with a proprietary blend of ingredients such as Glucosamine, Chondroitin and Collagen, work together to alleviate joint stiffness and discomfort while enhancing mobility and flexibility.

Ltd.（簡稱“目標公司”）合併，從而使公司獲得合併實體100%的已發行和流通普通股（簡稱“交易”）。在本次交易中，公司向目標公司的股東發行了10,000,000股公司普通股（簡稱“公司股份”），每股發行價格被視為0.56美元。此前曾計劃由公司承擔目標公司在3,499,997份認股權證方面的義務，這些認股權證在交易完成時可轉換為公司股份。然而，交易各方已對條款進行了修訂，公司不再承擔該項義務。根據適用的加拿大證券法律，此次發行的公司股份不受轉售限制。關於項目：通過此次交易，公司收購了位於斯洛伐克的三個礦產勘探項目：Trojarová 銻金項目、Tiennesgrund 銻金項目和 Medvedi 錫項目。公司計劃根據《國家文書43-101礦產項目披露標準》（簡稱“NI 43-101”）為 Trojarová 項目製作一份技術報告。此外，公司還計劃根據適用的證券法律要求提交一份業務收購報告（Business Acquisition Report）。關於 Trojarová 銻金項目根據公司於2024年10月30日發布的關於 Trojarová 項目的新聞稿，Trojarová 於20世紀70年代末被發現，並在1983年至1995年間成為大規模地表和地下勘探的重點。該期間共完成了63個核心鑽孔，總鑽探長度達14,330米，同時從1990年開始進行1.7公里的地下開發工作，包括一條300米長的隧道，連接到礦化區腳牆內700多米長的巷道，並在礦化區內設置了7條橫切巷道用於取樣。這些勘探工作最終形成了一套多卷本的研究成果，涵蓋鑽探日誌、分析報告、鑽探平面圖、礦床模型研究、岩相學研究、冶金研究等。所有研究由斯洛伐克地質研究所完成，並於1992年發布了一套多卷本的報告。根據這份歷史報告，Trojarová 的資源估算使用了蘇聯解體後俄羅斯分類體系的斯洛伐克版本，而這一體系與加拿大礦業、冶金和石油協會（CIM）制定的資源與儲量分類標準並不直接兼容。斯洛伐克地質研究所——負責 Trojarová 所有勘探和地下開發工作的國家機構——將資源分類為“P1”，這一分類在 CIM 分類體系中最接近於“推測礦產資源”。根據 CIM 的定義，“推測礦產資源”是基於有限的地質證據，並通過適當取樣技術從露頭、溝槽、礦坑、作業和鑽孔等位置估算的資源。1992年的報告包含一張表格，列出了十種不同的歷史資源估算情景，其中五種集中於礦化系統的銻成分，五種集中於其金成分。這些估算表格分別顯示了隨著品位提高而噸位減少的趨勢。Trojarová 歷史資源估算情景（來源：Michel 等，1992）如需查看該圖表的增強版本，請訪問：https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10818/230288_a61f2007c4ec68b4_001full.jpg 在完成合併後，公司將通過確認鑽探計劃驗證這一歷史資源估算，以便根據《國家文書43-101礦產項目披露標準》（National Instrument 43-101）將 Trojarová 的礦產資源分類為當前資源。顯示軍事金屬公司在斯洛伐克項目位置的地圖如需查看該圖表的增強版本，請訪問：https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10818/230288_a61f2007c4ec68b4_002full.jpg 投資者關係活動：公司宣布已簽訂與營銷和投資者關係相關的協議。根據2024年10月24日的新聞稿，公司聘請了 Clarkham Capital（簡稱“Clarkham”）提供投資者關係服務，重點針對德國股票市場和德語投資社群，以支持公司在法蘭克福證券交易所上市（簡稱“Clarkham協議”）。Clarkham 協議將於2024年11月18日生效。根據協議條款，Clarkham 將提供包括社交媒體管理、內容創建、分發、數位營銷在內的服務，例如在多種金融平台和新聞通訊上撰寫文章和報導、在德國翻譯和發布新聞稿，以及其他與公司商定的營銷服務（簡稱“Clarkham服務”）。該協議有效期為兩個月，公司將一次性支付200,000歐元（約合298,340加元）作為服務費用。Clarkham 服務將由 Sebastian Korbach 代表 Clarkham 提供，聯繫方式為 +44-20-38839398 或 cc@clarkham.com。Clarkham 與公司不存在任何直接或間接的利益關係，也無權獲取公司或其證券的任何權益。此外，公司與 Robert Sinn（簡稱“Sinn”）簽訂了一項一次性媒體服務協議。根據協議，Sinn 將提供包括視頻內容創建、分發和數位營銷在內的服務，這些服務將與一段視頻採訪相關，並將在 BNN Bloomberg 等投資平台上發布（簡稱“Sinn服務”）。Sinn 服務將於2024年11月20日開始，公司將一次性支付2,500美元作為服務費用。Sinn 的聯繫方式為 +352-613-2850 或 ceotechnician@gmail.com，地址為 Suite 508, 416 SW 1st Avenue, Fort Lauderdale, FL, 33301。Sinn 與公司不存在任何直接或間接的利益關係，也無權獲取公司或其證券的任何權益。2024年11月15日，公司與 GRA Enterprises LLC（以國家通貨膨脹協會 [NIA] 名義經營）簽訂了一項媒體服務合同（簡稱“NIA協議”）。根據 NIA 協議的條款，NIA 將為公司提供包括社交媒體管理、內容創建、分發、數位營銷在內的服務，以及其他公司與 NIA 商定的營銷服務（簡稱“NIA服務”）。這些服務將通過諸如 BNN Bloomberg 和 Benzinga 等受歡迎的投資者平台進行分發。NIA 協議的期限為三（3）個月，預計於2024年11月18日左右開始。公司將一次性支付 NIA 30,000美元作為服務費用。Gerard Adams 將代表 NIA 為公司提供服務，其聯繫方式為 +973-277-7674 或 inflationusceo@gmail.com，地址為 112 Camp Lane, Mooresville, NC 28117。公司不會向 NIA 提供任何形式的證券作為補償。Gerard Adams 和 NIA 與公司不存在任何直接或間接的利益關係，也無權獲取公司或其證券的任何權益。本新聞稿的技術內容已由 Avrom E.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 15, 2024) - Military Metals Corp. (CSE: MILI) (OTCQB: MILIF) (FSE: QN90)(the "Company" or "Military") is pleased to announced that it has closed its previously disclosed transaction, pursuant to which 1509149 B.C. Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, amalgamated with 1458205 B.C. Ltd. (the "Target") such that the Company has acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares in the capital of the amalgamated entity (the "Transaction").In connection with the Transaction, the Company issued 10,000,000 Common shares in the capital of the Company (the "Company Shares"), at a deemed issuance price of $0.56 per Company Share, to the shareholders of the Target. Previously, it was contemplated that the Company would assume the Target's obligations in respect of 3,499,997 share purchase warrants, which were to become exercisable into Company Shares on closing, however the parties to the Transaction have amended the terms, and such obligation is not being assumed by Military. The Company Shares issued are not subject to resale restrictions under applicable Canadian securities laws.About the Projects:The Transaction results in the Company acquiring three mineral exploration projects in Slovakia, being the Trojarová antimony-gold project, the Tiennesgrund antimony-gold project, and the Medvedi tin project. It is the intention of the Company to produce a technical report under National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") in connection with Trojarová. The Company also intends to file a Business Acquisition Report for the Transaction in accordance with the requirements of applicable securities laws.About the Trojarová Antimony-Gold ProjectAs first reported in the Company's news release regarding Trojarová dated October 30, 2024, discovered in the late 1970s Trojarová was the focus of extensive surface and underground exploration from 1983 to 1995, with 63 core holes completed for a total of 14,330m, along with 1.7km of underground development starting in 1990, ultimately comprising a 300-meter-long adit connected to a 700-plus meter-long drive in the footwall of the mineralized zone with seven crosscuts into the mineralized zone for sampling purposes. These efforts culminated in a multi-volume study comprising drill logs, analyses, drill plans, maps and sections, deposit model studies, petrographic studies, metallurgical studies and more, culminating in a multi-volume compendium of reports produced by the Slovak Geological Institute published in 1992. The historical estimate at Trojarová was classified using the Slovak version of the newly post-Soviet Russian classification system, which is not directly comparable to or compatible with the western system as defined by the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy & Petroluem ("CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources & Mineral Reserves"). The Slovak Geological Institute, the State agency that carried out all exploration and underground development work at Trojarová, classified the resource as "P1" in the Slovak version of the Russian classification system. P1 is closest within the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy & Petroleum's ("CIM") classification system to "Inferred Mineral Resources," which is defined by the CIM as that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity and grade or quality are estimated on the basis of limited geological evidence gathered through appropriate sampling techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill holes.The 1992 Report contains a table featuring ten alternate historical resource estimates, five focused on the antimony component of the mineralized system and five on its gold component, each group of five featuring decreasing tonnage at increasing grade for antimony and gold, respectively. This table is shown below.Historical alternate resource estimate scenarios for Trojarova(source: Michel et al, 1992)To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10818/230288_a61f2007c4ec68b4_001full.jpgUpon completion of the Amalgamation, the Company will move forward to verify this historical estimate through a program of confirmation drilling so that it is able to classify mineral resources at Trojarová as current, in accordance with National Instrument 43-101.Map showing the location of Military's properties in SlovakiaTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10818/230288_a61f2007c4ec68b4_002full.jpgInvestor Relations Engagements:The Company further announces entry into agreements related to marketing and investor relations.

JAKARTA, Nov 13, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - PT PLN (Persero) is promoting participation with the global community during the 29th Conference of the Parties (COP29) hosted in Baku, Azerbaijan, from November 11 to 22, 2024. This initiative is in harmony with the nation's objective of an energy transition towards sustainable energy self-sufficiency.Hashim Djojohadikusumo, Indonesia's Special Envoy to COP29Hashim Djojohadikusumo, Indonesia's Special Envoy to COP29, stated that under President Prabowo Subianto's leadership, Indonesia is committed to sustaining existing commitments made by preceding presidents to accelerate the energy transition and mitigate climate change."We will keep our commitments and develop new programs led by President Prabowo. Among these is an initiative to add 100 gigawatts of new power generation over the next 15 years, with renewable energy accounting for 75% (75 gigawatts). This ambitious initiative will necessitate USD 235 billion in investment," Hashim remarked at the opening of the Indonesian Pavilion at COP29 on Monday, November 11.Hashim also highlighted additional commitments, such as carbon emission reduction through Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology. Indonesia is prepared to collaborate with multinational companies and other stakeholders interested in investing in this sector."Indonesia is blessed with vast saline aquifers, both onshore and offshore, providing an estimated carbon storage capacity of 500 gigatons," Hashim said.Indonesia invites international stakeholders to join in combating global warming, he noted, as the impact of climate change in Indonesia is part of a broader global challenge. "This journey will take years; it cannot be done overnight. It requires funding, technology, and knowledge," Hashim emphasized. Minister of Environment Hanif Faisol Nurofiq expressed optimism about the role of the Indonesian Pavilion at COP29, not only for Indonesia but also as a platform for global collaboration on climate mitigation solutions."The COP29 theme strongly aligns with our (Indonesian) pavilion theme, 'Sustainability Stronger Together.' This concept reflects our belief that through cooperation among nations, sectors, and communities, we can address climate change effectively," Faisol noted.The Indonesian Pavilion has three main objectives: representing Indonesia's climate diplomacy, promoting Indonesia's comprehensive climate mitigation efforts, and exploring new ideas, partnerships, and opportunities for strengthening climate resilience worldwide. Minister of Forestry Raja Juli Antoni emphasized that economic growth must be balanced with environmental protection, particularly forest conservation. He urged all stakeholders to participate in these efforts to achieve sustainable economic growth. "I encourage everyone to address our current forestry issues together. Collaboration is our collective responsibility to protect and conserve our forests, making them a source of prosperity for future generations," Raja Juli remarked. PLN CEO Darmawan Prasodjo reiterated PLN's commitment to support the Indonesian government's goal of adding new power generation capacity to achieve sustainable energy self-sufficiency. He noted that PLN has developed a roadmap and is expanding partnerships with local and global stakeholders."As the backbone of Indonesia's energy security, PLN is optimistic about achieving this target through a transition strategy focused on renewable energy and continuous sustainable development," Darmawan explained. To meet these goals, PLN has planned a Green Enabling Transmission Line to deliver clean energy from renewable sources in remote areas. Spanning 70,000 kilometers, this transmission network will connect Indonesian islands and transport clean electricity to urban demand centers. Darmawan also stressed that PLN continues to increase its renewable energy generation capacity and harness Indonesia's clean energy potential. "PLN is committed to developing supporting infrastructure, including smart grids, smart control systems, intelligent distribution, and battery storage systems to maximize renewable energy use," he stated. Collaboration, Darmawan emphasized, is essential. "PLN actively participates in global events like COP29 to strengthen partnerships for achieving sustainable energy self-sufficiency." "Global community efforts, including sustainable investments, technology transfer, and supportive policies for renewable energy development, are crucial," Darmawan concluded.Source: Antara for PLN ( https://web.pln.co.id/en/sustainability/sustainability ) Copyright 2024 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
