Citybiz Interview with Tony Gruebl, President of Think & Jeff Musgrove, MD of Executive Advisory and PE & Venture Support

Citybizlist

In this second interview citybiz asks Baltimore-based Think’s Tony Gruebl, the firm’s president and founder, and Jeff Musgrove, managing director of executive advisory and PE and venture support, to discuss the company’s recent acquisition of Ventrue and why it puts the company on the path to offering services nationwide. In September, Think purchased Ventrue LLC, a Naples, Fla.-based shared services company for an undisclosed price. As part of the transaction Think signed a partnership agreement with Naples Technology Ventures (NTV), a venture capital fund that invests in technology companies. Think will provide technology and advisory services to support NTV’s acquisitions. The Ventrue and NTV deal opens new markets for Think, primarily with private equity and venture capital firms. Musgrove says potential clients are disruptors operating in insurtech, fintech and healthtech. Through Ventrue, Think can plug into these companies and advise them along the business lifecycle in three primary areas: diligence, integration and optimization. “I have been a big believer that there is a gap to be filled by a firm like Think in that space as a trusted partner to the PE or VC firm who can go in and perform those critical functions for them,” Musgrove said. “So, they don’t need to build it. We have the expertise.” To hear more from Gruebl and Musgrove, click the below video.

Robotic Research Applauded in 2020 GovCon Awards for Both Contractor and Program of the Year

Robotic Research

Robotic Research LLC, a global leader in autonomy and localization technology for government and commercial customers, announced today they received multiple honors during the 18th Annual Greater Washington Government Contractor (GovCon) Awards, the Washington, D.C. region’s premier event honoring leaders in the government contracting community. The company’s financial and operational accomplishments were recognized with their award of Contractor of the Year, and their WarLoc™ product, a wearable localization device for GPS-denied environments, was announced as Program of the Year, an honor reserved for the most exemplary contracted program among all of the applicants. “We are deeply honored to be recognized by the Northern Virginia Chamber of Commerce and the Professional Services Counsel for our success in delivering autonomy and localization technologies that have helped transform defense and transportation operations around the world,” said Alberto Lacaze, president of Robotic Research. “It’s been an extremely busy and successful few years for us. We have expanded applications for our AutoDrive® autonomy kit with defense customers and have used its past performance to broaden our work in the commercial sector. We introduced new products like Pegasus™, our first-of-its-kind hybrid, transformable drone, to defense and commercial industries. Our WarLoc™ product, the evening’s Program of the Year, was successfully delivered to warfighters, even in the face of a pandemic. It takes an amazing team as well as the support of highly collaborative customers and partners to make this quantity and speed of innovation possible. We thank all of them for supporting our creative process, which has allowed us to solve critical challenges with new thinking and fresh approaches. I am proud of our employees for their endless support and commitment to our customers’ success. Congratulations to the Robotic Research team on this accomplishment.” WarLoc™ is a unique, GPS-denied localization device for dismounts, designed to increase the safety and security of warfighters and first responders. The mobile, boot-mounted device calculates a user’s position in GPS-denied locations, ensuring continued team visibility even within hostile and degraded environments challenged by GPS jamming and communications dropouts. WarLoc™ is powered by Robotic Research’s Prometheus AI, a collaborative system framework that dramatically improves accuracy and reliability of the full system by sharing and combining localization solutions on the edge. Prometheus AI is central to Robotic Research’s comprehensive autonomous vehicle solutions, all of which are helping U.S. military forces better coordinate safe and effective operations, helping to save soldiers’ lives in the most challenging environments. “Thank you so much for the award,” said Kyle Smith, Director of Advanced Technologies and WarLoc™ Project Manager at Robotic Research. “I’m humbled by the role we’re allowed to play in serving the country’s warfighters and first responders. It’s been amazing to see this technology mature over the past 14 years, and none of it would be possible without our extremely skilled team, from engineers to technicians, administrative staff to trainers – and everything in between. I’d also like to thank all of our government team members, with special gratitude to Armaments Center.” In 2019, Robotic Research received orders for 700 WarLoc™ units from the U.S. Army, which was the first commercialized order for product. The order marked a historic achievement in the long history and development of this innovative technology, which was born out of a Small Business Innovative Research contract with the U.S. Army’s Combat Capabilities Development Center Armaments Center in 2006. WarLoc™ has since been deployed to active troops in various U.S. and overseas locations. Founded in 2002, the Greater Washington Government Contractor Awards honors the leaders and legends of an industry that is vital to society and its citizens.

Hearing Aids: How to Pick the Right Type for You or a Loved One

D S Simon Media

It might sound unbelievable, but your hearing is as unique as your fingerprint. It’s true. Someone’s hearing experiences are individual to them, and the way they hear sounds is different to anyone else. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/m7KImn3BebQ Yet, the most commonly worn hearing aids use a standardized approach modeled on an ‘average ear’, which can often compromise sound quality with 93% reporting trouble hearing in noisy environments and 55% getting confused about where sounds come from. In fact, hearing loss can cause a person to miss out on hearing the moments that matter most. The problem is so big that according to the National Institutes of Health, nearly 30 million Americans have a hearing loss and could benefit from using hearing aids but fewer than 16% have ever used them. Just like a fingerprint, each person’s hearing is unique. Yet, the most commonly worn hearing aids use a standardized approach modeled on an‘ average ear’, which can often compromise sound quality. ReSound ONE is a long-awaited breakthrough that gives everyone a solution individualized precisely to their own hearing anatomy. ReSound ONE is an entirely new class of hearing aids that offers a truly individualized hearing experience and the best sound quality for every user. ReSound ONE is available in rechargeable and non-rechargeable models. For further information and to take a free hearing test, visit the ReSound.com.

Acacia Group Companies Scoop Up Two Innovation Awards for Tech Taking On COVID-19 Challenges

Acacia Group

The Acacia Group, operational investors in technology and services companies, announced today that two of its portfolio companies were recently named Industry Innovator award winners for their groundbreaking technologies in the 2020 Government Innovation Awards presented by Defense Systems, FCW, GCN and Washington Technology. Applied Insight was recognized for its cloud testing and emulation platform, SHIFT, and ID Technologies was celebrated for its endpoint security platform, Archon. Both technologies have been used to support the federal government in tackling the challenges created by the COVID-19 pandemic by providing remote work solutions for national security customers. “Fostering innovation has long been at the heart of Acacia’s investment approach across our portfolio,” said Gavin Long, partner with The Acacia Group. “As a result, all of our platform companies have had significant success with developing proprietary technologies that overcome major technical and cultural hurdles for their public sector and commercial customers. Today, their technologies are enabling mission progress for thousands of users across the federal government and industry, including newly remote workforces. These awards are fantastic recognition for our teams at Applied Insight and ID Technologies and validate our continued backing of their substantial product development programs.” Both Archon and SHIFT are proprietary technologies that address some of the most critical needs facing the federal government today. ARCHON - ID Technologies has taken its first Industry Innovator award for its Archon endpoint security platform. The Archon solution suite, which incorporates a Commercial Solutions for Classified compliant laptop or phone coupled with secure cloud connectivity, provides a uniquely secure way for mobile users to access sensitive or classified data. It is enabling remote workforces to continue their work within systems that are vital to national defense, a mission-critical task since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. At such a crucial time, Archon is enabling greater productivity for tactical mission users and greater security for mission-sensitive systems. SHIFT - Applied Insight’s SHIFT technology is transforming the performance of mission-critical software developed for restricted cloud regions. By emulating those regions, SHIFT enables developers to make their applications fully “region ready” before they are deployed to the high side. As a result, using SHIFT helps avoid costly mission delays and accelerates customer access to the latest commercial innovations. Significantly, SHIFT solves a major customer staffing problem, as it allows uncleared developers to do their best work on the low side. Applied Insight is an award winner for the second consecutive year, having been honored in 2019 for its innovative Altitude Managed Cloud platform. The Government Innovation Awards celebrate the transformative government projects, individual change agents and industry partners that are reimagining public-sector IT. The Industry Innovator awards recognize the vital role that the private sector plays in the government IT community. More information on the awards, including all the award winners, can be found online at https://governmentinnovationawards.com/events/2020/information/industry-innovators.aspx.

RTCORE is Evaluating Applying for a Commercial Banking License

RTCore Inc

October 29, 2020, RTCORE Inc. (OTC Markets: “PPPS”), a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”) is evaluating the opportunity to apply for a U.S. Commercial Banking License, which the Company believes would be synergistic with its innovative CoreBanking system and negotiations for the acquisitions of Conquest Insurance Group and Spanish Moss Premium Finance Co. RTCore is a Cloud-native Banking System delivering real time digital transaction processing and settlements, with multi-bank, multi-lingual and multi-currency capabilities, while achieving high levels of operating efficiencies. The recent notice issued by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) allowing banks to securely embrace digital assets is a major step forward in the quest for banks to provide digital services broadly to the market. Additionally, the OCC further clarified its position on the provision of banking services to stablecoin issuers as long as the stablecoins are backed by fiat currencies on a one-to-one ratio. According to Company COO John Kelly, “The decision to begin evaluating the opportunity to create a post-modern 'de novo' bank is owed to the knowledge and experience of our management team, combined with a new banking platform whose design can successfully address the pent-up market demand for innovative digital banking products and services processed in a highly secure and regulated real time environment.” RTCore’s Chairman and CEO, Phil Walton stated “The software includes sophisticated KYC and AML monitoring, reporting and analytics. By putting our money where our mouth is, should our efforts prove successful, a new bank with a complete set of digital banking products and services running on real time settlement rails, could quickly become a market leader in the digital transformation of our legacy-based banking industry.” The Company may choose not to create a 'de novo' bank. If it does choose to move forward, there is no guarantee that it would receive the requisite licenses and approvals, or otherwise have the ability to do so. Regardless of the outcome, the Company will continue to market the RTCore System to interested Financial Services organizations worldwide. About RTCORE Inc. Headquartered in Charlotte, NC, RTCORE Inc. is an industry leader in the design, development and commercial deployment of Cloud-native, real time transaction processing software for the global financial services industry.

Comodo Releases Historical Statistics for Enterprise Customers

Comodo

Comodo, the world’s leader of next-generation cybersecurity announced that it has released historical statistics for its enterprise customers and will publish updates on a regular basis. Comodo’s Transparency Page lists weekly historical data sets that includes scores and statistics from millions of endpoints on thousands of different networks. Built with the goal of providing transparency and building trust, it represents a health check for enterprise customers and drills down to both device view and file view, providing percentage data for the following: Device View Percentage of active devices with malicious activity (in containment Percentage of active devices on known good state (no unknowns) Percentage of active devices that have seen malicious activity (API virtualized) Percentage of infection/breach File View Percentage of unknowns that turns out to be clean Percentage of unknowns that turn out to be a potentially unwanted application (PUA) Percentage of the unknowns that turned out to be malware “Our reporting for the month of October shows zero infections and zero breaches, which represents data collected from our enterprise users on millions of endpoints, from thousands of different networks,” said Alan Knepfer, President and Chief Revenue Office with Comodo. He continued, “This clearly demonstrates the power of Comodo attack surface reduction (ASR) and the efficacy of protection without detection. Every unknown executable, which these files were, were running in kernel API virtualization mode.” Comodo’s Dragon platform with Advanced Endpoint Protection (AEP) is a complete cloud-native framework that delivers a zero-trust architecture to protect and defend endpoints. Its patent-pending auto containment technology has active breach protection that neutralizes ransomware, malware and cyber-attacks. The auto containment runs any unknown executable in a kernel API virtualized mode, thereby offering attack surface reduction (ASR) which neutralizes ransomware attacks. The Dragon platform also utilizes a Default Deny security posture with Default Allow usability to provide a most comprehensive protection against zero-day threats, while having no impact on end-user experience or workflows. Comodo’s Valkyrie analyzes and gives a trusted verdict for every file – no other company will analyze and give trusted verdict for 100% of the files on a network. Comodo’s platform shares intelligence and is therefore more secure than disparate products that claim best of breed but don’t share information. Comodo has architected its cybersecurity product to maximize intelligent sharing between every component of the platform, therefore providing superior security. Alan continued, “Transparency and trust are key in the cybersecurity industry. And while a hundred percent security cannot be promised by anyone, showing these types of stats is a critical component for building the foundation for that transparency and trust. We are calling on all cybersecurity vendors to start publishing similar statistics, as well. We firmly believe this type of visibility is good for the industry and for end users. Only companies with subpar products that rely on marketing and don't want to be found out will be hesitant to publish these types of statistics.” About Comodo Comodo is the world’s leader of next-generation open source cybersecurity, with the industry’s most disruptive innovations. We help customers stop breaches with groundbreaking auto containment technology that neutralizes ransomware, malware and cyber-attacks. Our complete cloud-native framework delivers a zero-trust architecture with active breach protection for the most comprehensive defense against zero-day threats.
