Striver, which is the brainchild of Entrepreneur Tim Chase and international football legends Gilberto Silva and Roberto Carlos, is a user-generated content platform that aims to change the way people use social media by creating a toxicity-free online environment that allows users to engage in meaningful discussions and share their progressing talents, without the fear of online abuse and bullying. Safety is the core ingredient and Striver selected global AI provider GoBubble after extensive market assessment. Online safety and protecting users from digital harm are of huge importance, ensuring that user profiles, user-generated content, and comments are moderated. GoBubble are pioneers in content moderation technology with their Emotion AI. Instead of keywords or context analysis, Emotion AI scans for UGB (user-generated behaviour) across multiple languages in text, image, video, audio, and emojis to identify and block toxic and potentially harmful content. Co-Founder and CEO at the majority female-run GoBubble, Danielle Platten, said: “We’re proud of the global impact Emotion AI is having in reducing revenue-harming experiences in platforms and saving the human cost of toxic content, for both users and the need for human moderators. “It’s wonderful to unveil the power of Emotion AI at Web Summit through its integration with Striver. We’ve already seen a massive impact from supporting clients in esports, gaming, sports, and corporates, so to be able to help future generations of football enthusiasts in this way is fantastic.” Tim Chase, Striver CEO, said: “For us, there was only one provider we wanted to work with, GoBubble. Their pedigree in innovation and the fact we can use their easy system to build our own content moderation AI meant we could achieve our ambition of changing the way people use social media, creating new ways for fans to interact with their heroes and giving users an online community where they can share their talents without the fear of being abused. Using GoBubble’s Emotion AI we have been able to gamify sentiment, allowing users to build a sentiment rating based on their positive interactions on the platform.” GoBubble’s global-patent-pending AI offers above 90% accuracy (market average is between 70 and 80%) and is fully bespoke to a client. They have the user-friendly building blocks to know they can shape their very own AI to support their commercial objectives. All this includes a personalised analytics dashboard for a deeper understanding of the sentiment within their platform. The technology was created to address the ever-increasing issue of online abuse, by experts in the field of digital safeguarding, law enforcement, online trust and safety, and big tech including Google, Facebook, and Twitter.

FORGOTTEN MOM LAUNCHES CAPITAL CAMPAIGN FOCUSING ON MOTHERS WITH ADDICTION, A DRAMATICALLY UNDERSERVED POPULATION

Forgotten Mom Inc.

In an effort to improve outcomes and better support mothers struggling with addiction, a capital campaign for Forgotten Moms is launching today in Florida. According to data collected by the National Institute of Health (NIH), 22M Americans struggle with addiction, 23M are in addiction recovery, and 45M are directly impacted by addiction. Of those checking into treatment centers, 32% are mothers. Additionally, these women need inpatient and outpatient treatment, as well as housing to keep families together and mothers supported. Historically, many women are pushed through the court system on drug charges, where they may end up in jail, separated from their children, with many children going into foster care. Dr. Anita Cocoves, from the Critical Incident Stress Management Team of the Treasure Coast in Florida says, “As we continue to see issues with the opioid epidemic and treatment, women continue to be homeless, without care, and emotionally hopeless. They desperately need treatment, education, and longer-term support to stay healthy.” Farid Dallal, Advisor to NueroPsychiatric Addiction Treatment of Port St. Lucie, Florida, has been underwriting treatment for the last five years with his own money and has spent close to $200,000 providing scholarships for treatment service and access to over 500 people. In 2016, he created the charity, non-profit Forgotten Mom, and is now raising funds to build out a new treatment and housing facility, along with longer-term resource and education supports. Dallal says, “In the past two years, we have lost three non-profits in the South Florida area who have served these women. There is nothing for them. They need a place that is safe, trustworthy, and somewhere to keep their families together. We will be providing longer term educational support as well, to prevent relapse.” The Forgotten Mom Capital Campaign seeks to raise $2.68M and will run through 2023 with a fundraiser and documentary film in development now. They continue to build awareness and services regionally, nationally, and internationally for this necessary treatment. Adriana Cottet, lead coordinator of the capital campaign, adds, “We invite everyone to donate to this critically underserved population. Our goal is to expand our services through this capital campaign and continue to serve more women and their families.” For more information, see www.forgottenmoms.org or info@forgottenmoms.org About Forgotten Mom: Forgotten Mom Inc. (FMI), is a registered (501(c)(3), non-profit initiative established in 2016 to address, support, and find help for the dramatically underserved population of mothers struggling with the disease of addiction. www.forgottenmoms.org Contact Details Farid Dallal +1 646-640-6099 info@forgottenmoms.org Company Website http://www.forgottenmoms.org

Minuteman Press Florida Franchise Owners Celebrate 15-plus Years in Business

Minuteman Press International Inc

Minuteman Press International is proud to acknowledge the following franchisees in Florida who are celebrating 15 years in business. Below you will find their insights on owning a business as well as their advice to other aspiring entrepreneurs and Minuteman Press franchise owners. Kathy Collier Alford Minuteman Press, Town ‘n’ Country, FL “I am not sure where 15 years has gone. Before I opened my shop in November 2007, I was in retail management for 25 years opening new markets all over the country. When I decided to do something different, all I knew is that I wanted to work for myself. Minuteman Press was in the Entrepreneur Franchise 500 and looked interesting. My brother originally brought Minuteman Press to my attention as I would have never thought about owning a print shop because I did not know anything about the industry. We contacted the Florida Regional VP, went on a few shop tours, and here I am 15 years later! In the beginning, Minuteman Press has a system for growing your business, and I followed it. You must get plugged in! I did not even know what networking meant. I joined and visited various local groups and met so many people in the beginning that I still print for today. I joined a Chamber of Commerce; I got involved in philanthropy groups that I never had time for in my corporate life. I got involved in the community around my shop, and all of these experiences have been super rewarding. I would never have thought that owning my own printing franchise could help me grow as a person. I learned about all of these amazing things that I did not even know were going on, and I feel super blessed. Minuteman Press also has systems in place to help with pricing and growing my customer base. The Minuteman Press FLEX software has helped tremendously; FLEX has taken us to a whole new level of technology, pricing, emailing, invoicing, etc. If I was to dole out any advice to a new owner it would be to: Teach your staff customer service and treat them right; you cannot do this alone (they are part of my family) Get to know your neighborhood, join groups, and get involved Do the things that have worked that Minuteman Press has already proven can work Build relationships and customer referrals (referrals are the best compliments you can get) Use SEO to your advantage Work hard and you will earn it!” Ken & Lisa Rose Minuteman Press, Clermont, FL Ken Rose is the former Co-Director of Training for Minuteman Press International. Ken and his wife Lisa moved to Florida and from Long Island and they have now owned Minuteman Press in Clermont for 15+ years. Ken shares the following advice that carried over from his time at Minuteman Press International that has helped him achieve success and longevity over the years as a Minuteman Press franchisee: No matter what is going on, you have to have a positive attitude Plan your day the night before and arrive early Do what you say you’re going to do, and do it (Roy Titus, co-founder, Minuteman Press International) Be proud of what you do & always tell people who you are & what you do (Roy Titus) Be active in the community through clubs and organizations, and be visible Pay yourself a fair wage (Roy Titus) Jeff Reich Minuteman Press, Cape Coral, FL Jeff Reich has been the owner of Minuteman Press in Cape Coral, FL for 15+ years. Short and sweet, the advice Jeff shares is as follows: Understand your customers' expectations and exceed them Be persistent Deliver great quality In congratulating these owners, Florida Regional Vice President Larry Trimble says, “I am thrilled to be able to celebrate these impressive milestones with Kathy, Ken & Lisa, and Jeff as well as all of the incredible Minuteman Press franchisees across Florida who have achieved such accomplishments. It is a pleasure to be able to support them with their businesses and I look forward to continuing to do so.” For more information on #1 rated Minuteman Press franchise opportunities and to see more Minuteman Press franchise reviews, visit https://minutemanpressfranchise.com.

Black Women, Breast Cancer and the Tests That Can Save Lives

YourUpdateTV

A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/13nWSPuDIAs The death rate from breast cancer continues to decline, according to a new report from the American Cancer Society. But there's a wide, worrisome gap in Black women's outcomes that remains unchanged. Black women are more likely to die from breast cancer than white women. While breast cancer incidence rates among Black and white women are close, mortality rates are markedly different, with Black women having a 41% higher death rate from breast cancer. Black women are disproportionally affected by more aggressive breast cancers because of their biology. A recent study showed that Black women are significantly more likely to have genomically High Risk tumors compared to white women, despite having the same clinical factors. This means that, all other things the same – right down to their age and the size of their tumors – the Black women in the study were more likely to have a more aggressive type of cancer. The way we can address some of these disparities is through genomic tests like MammaPrint and BluePrint, which look at 150 important genes within a tumor to estimate the risk of recurrence of that cancer. The number of genes/RNA analyzed by MammaPrint and BluePrint is higher than any other test, and captures the diversity of pathways that allows for consistent results regardless of race and ethnicity. With that information, we as physicians can make more informed decisions with our patients about what their optimal treatment plan should be. There are a few available genomic tests utilized in the clinic to guide discussions around chemotherapy benefit. One example is MammaPrint/BluePrint which are the most comprehensive tests with the most consistent results across diverse groups of patients, compared to other tests. In addition, only the BluePrint test can catch tumor subtypes that may look less dangerous, but actually behave more like triple negative breast cancer when you further classify. This is a very aggressive kind of cancer, that is over-represented among Black women. It is very important the gene expression profiling result a woman receives about her tumor is consistent and reliable regardless of her ethnicity and race, like MammaPrint and BluePrint’s. Studies showing mis-categorization of risk in minority populations due to under-representation of these patients in genomic studies and clinical trials that lead to the approval of these tests is alarming. Every woman with breast cancer has the right to know the correct and clear biological information from her tumor, regardless of her skin color, so she can make timely decisions about her treatment with her care team. For more information about gene expression profiling, including resources that can help you talk to your doctor to make sure the test being offered will work best and most accurately for you, go to Agendia.com.

With Labor Market Still A Concern, Are There Endless Opportunities In The Online Learning Market For This Burgeoning AI Company?

Amesite Inc.

Learn More about Amesite Inc. by gaining access to the latest research report Many organizations are struggling with the digital transformation efforts they have begun, according to David Rogers, a professor at Columbia Business School in New York City. While the reasons vary, the most common is that there is a talent and skill shortage. While upskilling could be the solution, not many organizations prioritize it. As PA Consulting Chief Research Officer Charlene Li says in the “Digital Transformation Refocused: New Goals Require New Strategies” report published by Harvard Business Review, not enough businesses focus on the transformation part of digital transformation, which is about people. Bridging the Gap With Ed-Tech? Amesite Inc. (NASDAQ: AMST) is an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered software company providing cloud-based learning and content creation ecosystems for educational institutions, businesses and organizations. Amesite recently launched Version 5 (V5) of its AI-driven online learning platform. The upgraded version was built for scale-ability to deliver to large user bases with features that lead the industry. V5 also offers the capability to integrate the platform with other software programs and partner sites seamlessly. Amesite’s V5 platform equips customers with a holistic learning ecosystem and offers capabilities from an e-commerce solution to auto-enrollment of users to streamlined deployment in just 24 hours. The U.S. Department of Labor Statistics says there are more than 65,000 medium and large companies. With the current skill and talent shortage, most of these organizations could be looking to onboard, train and upskill a large number of their employees. Amesite says its V5 platform is scalable and capable of meeting the needs of over 65,000 customers. The launch of V5 is part of Amesite’s long-term goal of becoming a leader in the e-learning space alongside players such Coursera Inc. (NYSE: COUR) and 2U Inc. (NASDAQ: TWOU). The global e-learning market was valued at $215 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach $1 trillion by 2028. With V5, Amesite also aims to help with workplace training both in the U.S. and globally. The U.S. workplace training industry had a market value of $165 billion in 2020, according to Statista. Global Market Insights reports that by 2028 the industry is projected to reach $1 trillion. Partnership Deals Amesite has had a number of collaborations and its partnership with Wayne State University’s College of Engineering is a proof point that Amesite is building systems that retain customers – and enable them to scale. The company announced the expansion of its partnership with the university, which will integrate its V5 e-commerce solution into its system. The new development will enable learners to register, pay and enroll for courses directly on the university’s website, increasing the accessibility and engagement of Wayne State University’s nearly 30,000 engineering alumni and hundreds of thousands of other professionals. Amesite says its platform will help Wayne State and other partnering universities scale globally, by delivering tailor-made programs suited for their learners. By offering on their own brands, universities can use Amesite’s solutions to leverage their strengths, rather than compete their products against other universities’ offerings on common sites. The results speak for themselves considering that Wayne State reports 98% retention across its Amesite-powered programs in the three years it has worked with the company. Amesite also highlighted the platform’s capabilities and recently reported on the successful delivery of a “Full Scale, Global Enterprise Learning Solution” for the EWIE Group of Companies (EGC) in a press release and case study. “We know that people are our most important resource. Having people with the most advanced skills is a huge competitive advantage for us,” said Jay Mullick, President of EWIE Group of Companies. “Amesite is at the center of all our business process training at EGC. We have appreciated the support of their team throughout the relationship. Using Amesite’s global upskilling technology platform enables our people to gain the know-how to meet our most demanding customers’ needs, quickly and efficiently.” For Amesite, the market potential looks significant and promising because of the many thousands of educational institutions, organizations and businesses seeking the type of services the company offers. The company’s list of recent achievements also includes winning an exclusive partnership with NAFEO, a national membership organization that represents 106 HBCUs (Historically Black Colleges and Universities ). With this partnership, the Company is targeting $10M in revenue, by raising support for NAFEO to launch partnerships with its member Colleges and Universities — this represents a massive opportunity with a large group of educational institutions in its own right and could point toward further success for additional significant partnerships. NAFEO members enroll more than 700,000 students, they have 72,000 faculty, and 7 million alumni worldwide.

The company uses machine learning to offer a mass customized experience to learners. Its customers include businesses, universities and colleges, K-12 schools, and non-profit organizations.
