Shapeways Enables and Empowers Small to Midsized Manufacturers Through Digitization

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Greg Kress, the CEO of Shapeways Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: SHPW), recently appeared on the Let’s Talk Supply Chain podcast. During the discussion, Kress highlighted the gaps in the digitization of the manufacturing industry and explained Shapeways’ role in addressing these challenges. As a leader in the field of digital manufacturing, Shapeways continues to redefine the global manufacturing industry by providing on-demand manufacturing and simplifying complex production processes through proprietary software. The company is helping small and midsized manufacturers do this by providing access to Shapeways’ proprietary software and supporting them in digitizing their operations, growing revenue and expanding manufacturing capabilities. “Small and midsized manufacturers are enabling incredible amounts of innovation in the US,” said Kress. “They are driving the manufacturing industry—and the amount of available work out there is enormous. Our goal is to enable them to be really successful.” Kress compares his business model to what Toast (NYSE: TOST) did for the restaurant industry. Toast is a cloud-based restaurant management software that has essentially brought much of the restaurant industry into the 21st century. Shapeways is using that inspiration to provide small and midsized manufacturing companies with the resources they need to succeed and expand. “Previously no one had access to industrial grade manufacturing equipment without investing millions of dollars and having a ton of know-how and time,” said Kress. “Now, Shapeways is allowing anyone to get access to on-demand manufacturing services at scale,” Shapeways is democratizing the manufacturing industry and expanding accessibility so that small to midsized companies can excel in their craft. The company has invested millions of dollars in the digitalization of end-to-end operations and building scalable software that caters to the market. On the podcast, Kress discussed how the pandemic has been a wake-up call for the company, regarding the need for better workflows in manufacturing overall, sharing: “COVID has re-set the playing field. The amount of on-shoring we’re seeing is significant, and with the level of supply chain flexibility that’s required moving forward, there’s a different expectation. Those two challenges require businesses to take a step back and reexamine their approach in how to solve them.” In many ways, Shapeways has become that solution. Realizing a need–and recognizing the opportunity–to reshape manufacturing, Shapeways responded with the launch of OTTO, a proprietary software platform that streamlines ordering, performs file analysis, and accelerates production. OTTO offers advantages beyond optimizing labor efficiency, asset utilization, and inventory costs. This powerful software platform also strengthens relationships between manufacturers and their customers, encouraging growth and paving the way for future opportunities. Shapeways acquired MFG in 2022 to provide further support to manufacturers and buyers by adding new software features and services. MFG allows buyers—including engineers, product designers, and inventors—to submit requests for quotes (RFQs) to MFG’s network of independent manufacturers. This enables buyers to get multiple quotes quickly, at no cost. Manufacturers also benefit from the opportunity to gain new leads and build customer relationships. Shapeways isn’t content to stop there though. With increased investment in MFG, the platform now offers new orders and transactions features that streamline process management and payments, aimed at increasing efficiency for both manufacturers and buyers. Shapeways recently introduced MFG Materials too, a new feature providing paid members with access to a wide range of raw materials at 15 to 50% off list prices. Kress shared that the company has experienced success with customers under their multi-tiered model: "Our customers typically upgrade very quickly. The payback period is very fast. If you close one order on the platform, you’ve paid for your investment in MFG for the next two years. There’s a very strong ROI associated with the process." Shapeways seems well-positioned to revolutionize the manufacturing landscape, and Kress is confident in the company’s unique offerings within the industry. By extending their innovative, on-demand manufacturing services and software to a broad range of industries, Shapeways allows other companies to tap into their knowledge and insights to remain competitive in an ever-changing modern market.

Boost Mobile is Now Offering New Customers Unlimited Wireless for Only $12.50 for Their First Month

Benzinga

In the midst of rising inflation rates and economic downturns, individuals are feeling the pressure to reduce their expenses in any way possible. One area where people are looking to make substantial savings is their recurring bills, such as phone bills. As the cost of living continues to increase, households are reevaluating their budgets and searching for alternatives that better align with their tighter financial constraints. One carrier that solves this problem is Boost Mobile (NASDAQ: DISH) – offering one month of unlimited data for $12.50 for your first month as part of their introductory offer. 1 The pressure to save is particularly evident among young adults in their 20s and 30s, who, perhaps unsurprisingly, often continue to stay on the same cell phone plans that their parents signed them up for during their school years. Despite progress in various aspects of their lives, such as shouldering their own financial responsibilities and repaying student loans, up to 53% of millennial adults are still on their parent’s plan. Those who do pay for their own cell phone bills are often looking for plans that don’t break the bank but still provide good coverage. For those looking for phone plans that offer reduced rates or better value for money, Boost Mobile is a budget-friendly option. With Boost Mobile individuals can effectively trim their monthly expenditures without sacrificing essential communication. When it comes to prepaid providers, Boost Mobile is one of the best in the game. CNET recently named Boost Mobile’s $25 unlimited plan 1 one of the “ Best Prepaid Phone Plans.” One of the best aspects of Boost Mobile is their approach to contracts, or rather, the absence of them. With no contracts, users have the flexibility to choose plans that align with their needs without being tied to long-term commitments. Boost Mobile also boasts some of the lowest prices in the market, making it an attractive choice for budget-conscious individuals. The broad coverage provided by Boost Mobile ensures reliable connectivity across numerous locations. Boost plans to leverage its 2.5 GHz spectrum and deploy Massive MIMO radio technology to achieve this goal. The Massive MIMO technology can deliver greater capacity than current LTE systems, which will enable Boost to offer faster speeds, increased network capacity and an overall better experience for its wireless customers. Another distinguishing feature is the eSIM capability, allowing users to activate their service digitally without the need for a physical SIM card. Additionally, Boost Mobile enables users to roam in Mexico for only an additional $5/mo., ensuring seamless communication while traveling. All of Boost Mobile's plans include unlimited talk and text, along with hotspot capabilities, offering users comprehensive communication options. The company’s BoostOne app also offers a unique feature where users can bill credits by participating in various activities like playing games. These features and benefits make Boost Mobile a solid choice for consumers seeking a convenient, reasonably priced and feature-rich mobile service provider while having fun in the process! Boost Mobile has recently introduced a new unlimited plan that is just $12.50 for the first month – offering unlimited talk, text and data for $25 per month. 1 This plan stands out from the crowd as it is not tied to 12-month increments, unlike the 12-month plan offered by players like Mint Mobile. This offer is only available to new Boost customers who bring their own phone or purchase a full SRP phone from Boost Mobile. This promotional offer includes a free SIM Kit, which is valued at $9.99, and free shipping, adding even more convenience and savings to the package. This deal is compatible with most unlocked GSM phones, allowing customers to enjoy these benefits without the need to purchase a new device. The company's commitment to providing value to its customers is evident in its no-contract policy. The company’s BoostOne app also offers daily discount opportunities. Given all the benefits it offers, Boost Mobile seems to be a highly attractive choice for those seeking a reliable and cost-effective cell phone service provider. Get this offer now before it goes away. 1 After 30GB high speed monthly data allotment is exceeded, speeds may be reduced for the remainder of the month. Taxes and fees extra. Requires AutoPay.

RIP Wall Street vs. Main Street

Benzinga

Whenever the retail news talks about Wall Street vs. Main Street, I just chuckle. Wall Street vs. Main Street is long gone. The new market structure is entirely different now, with exciting new opportunities for retail traders and investors. The term “Wall Street” referred to the giant Sell-Side Institutions, the big banks and investment firms which once dominated the market. Big banks were the power and money behind most transactions. That dominance ended in 2008 with the banking debacle of that era. “Wall Street” has never been the same. Banks are struggling. Should you be worried? No. What you should be focused on are the Giant Buy-Side Institutions, which I call “the Dark Pools” since they transact orders on hidden Dark Pool venues. They are now the dominant force behind the scenes. They create a slow but massive liquidity draw when millions of shares of stock are bought slowly over time. This creates a huge hidden opportunity for both retail traders and investors. The Big Banks are always in the news. Not so with the Dark Pools, but they control 130 trillion dollars of assets under management worldwide. While the big banks’ revenue growth is eroding due to the growth of crypto currencies and all the variables of blockchain technology, the Dark Pools have been buying up huge quantities of the top crypto currencies to create new ETFs and other new investment and trading products. They are already making huge profits on these new derivatives. Peer-to-Peer transactions are growing in popularity. The banks’ role as intermediaries, as “vital and necessary to the global monetary system,” is in question. When all transactions are digital and the use of virtual wallets is the new normal, will we need banks as intermediaries for transactions between corporations, small businesses, consumers or government? Meanwhile, the Dark Pools manage the vast majority of 401(k)s and other retirement accounts. THEY are vital to the stability of the middle class of America. The Giant Buy-Side Institutions are usurping the big banks’ profitability from underwriting IPOs. The NASDAQ Private Market (NPM) is a new “professionals-only” stock market exchange where Buy-Side Institutions can invest in private companies much earlier in the cycle. Banks are no longer in control of which private companies will IPO, as the Buy-Side Institutions invest in these private companies via the NPM before they go public. Banks will experience a sharp reduction of profit from underwriting IPOs because the Buy-Side Institutions used to be their Preferred Clients, who bought shares of stock directly from the banks, which sold the majority of the shares to the Buy-Side Institutions well ahead of the IPO date. Banks are still used by most corporations for corporate “buybacks” of shares of a company’s public stock, but even that may end soon as new-technology financial companies, hedge funds and other firms can offer trading floor transactions instead of using the Bank of Record for buybacks. Or, the corporations may hire highly skilled traders and use AI as a means of managing buybacks. So “Wall Street,” aka giant banks and financial services, is not the force driving the huge growth of the stock market. This is an irreversible condition of an evolving global financial system. There is no “Main Street.” The millions of Americans who trade or invest in stocks are not one mindless group all behaving the same way. Each group trades and invests in a totally different way. This affects how stock prices move. Retail Long Term Investors. The SEC estimates about 70 million FAMILIES have invested in the stock market. As long-term investors, they are usually profitable. They have experience and some basic market knowledge. Retail Traders. This group is mostly trying to day trade, so they lose more money than any other group. They are largely gamblers and speculators with minimal market experience. Semi-Professional Traders. These individuals Trade as a Business full-time, similarly to independent professional traders. They have IRS business status for tax purposes. Smaller Funds Managers. These companies or individuals work with less than $3 billion in assets under management to as small as $100,000. They are considered “retail” as they lack experience or knowledge and tend to react to news similarly. They are no longer required to file SEC reports. MEME stock trading groups. This is a large group of higher-income younger-generation investors and traders who follow a retail-side guru. They trade the same “meme” stocks all at once to move the market deliberately in huge swings of price. Stock Market Cycle of Market Participants from TechniTrader® Thinking in terms of “us” vs. “them” is not the right attitude for successful trading in the financial markets. With a better understanding of the market participants–their goals, knowledge level, hold duration, how they trade, etc.–a well-educated trader or investor can identify when they are active and follow the market participant that best aligns with their goals. This is why I created the stock analysis method called “Relational Technical Analysis,” which is based on the Cycle of Market Participants. Visit my website to learn more.

Lastly, the Cannes Docs-in-Progress Award winner Island of the Winds, documenting 20 years of history of the Losheng Sanatorium, and PALIMPSEST: traces of a name by Éric Rohmer's frequent collaborator, editor and director Mary Stephen, will both be present at the Documentary Features and Series sessions.

Producers and/or directors behind each project will also attend pitching workshops organized by TCCF between October and November. Besides showcasing their projects on stage in front of local and international buyers during TCCF, they will also have the chance to meet one on one with key players looking to invest in each of the IPs. 2023 TCCF PITCHING Date: November 7-10 Place: Taipei New Horizon 6F, Songshan Cultural and Creative Park Complete list of selected entries: tccf.tw/en/pitching-selected-entries Complete list of award partners: tccf.tw/en/pitching-awards Contact Details Jaime Costas Nicolás +886 2 2311 7007 jaime.costas@ddg.com.tw Wengin Hsu +886 2 2745 8186 wengin.hsu@taicca.tw

Shiba Inu (SHIB) & Litecoin (LTC) Slide, Borroe.Finance ($ROE) Grabs Investor Spotlight

Blockchain Digest

Shiba Inu ($SHIB) has fallen in contrast to the popularity of its Shibarium upgrade. Likewise, Litecoin ($LTC) is in the red zone after the SEC's disappointing announcement. Meanwhile, token holders seem bullish on Borroe.Finance ($ROE ), after it realized a 25% increase. Borroe.Finance is a short-term capital generation platform. Its services are unique. But are they unique enough to make $ROE a good crypto to buy now? >>BUY $ROE TOKENS NOW<< SHIB Price Prediction: Shibarium Transactions Surpass 2.75 Million Shiba Inu's ($SHIB) Shibarium network has seen its transaction count rise to 2.9 million since its August 16 launch. This milestone represents an important advancement for Shiba Inu ($SHIB), given its massive potential for network activity improvement. Shiba Inu's ($SHIB) price has been affected positively by Shibarium's growing popularity. Some analysts expect a market rise soon due to anticipation of Bitcoin Spot ETF approvals in October. In such a scenario, Shiba Inu ($SHIB) could rise further, given the growing adoption of Shibarium. The token could increase to $0.000008110 when the market enters the next bull run. Litecoin ($LTC) Slides Following Negative Bitcoin News On August 31, 2023, The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) delayed its decision on Spot BTC ETF applications. The announcement disappointed many investors who were anticipating the first-ever Spot Bitcoin ETFs. As a result, many top altcoins, such as Litecoin ($LTC) and Bitcoin Cash, dropped sharply. Before the news went viral, Litecoin ($LTC) was trading at $68.89 on August 29. Yet, it fell to $64.93 by September 20 - a day after the SEC's announcement. Notably, Litecoin's ($LTC) drop came after the halving of its block rewards. On August 2, Litecoin ($LTC) halved block rewards from 12.5 $LTC to 6.25 $LTC. Analysts say Litecoin ($LTC) could fall further if the SEC doesn't give positive news on Bitcoin Spot ETFs in October. Litecoin ($LTC) could drop further, falling to $58.99 if the SEC disappoints investors again. Borroe.Finance ($ROE): Bringing Interest To Decentralized Invoice Financing Invoice financing is not a new concept. For a long time, companies have been able to take loans using their future and outstanding invoices as collateral. Yet, the traditional invoice financing industry has fallen short of meeting the needs of firms in the Web 3.0 industry. Borroe.Finance ($ROE) is a decentralized solution that offers the best invoice financing, lower costs, and instant approvals. The platform uses AI technology to assess credit worthiness before giving out loans. Furthermore, Borroe.Finance uses fractionalized NFTs to smoothen the process of allocating collateral. Borroe.Finance also allows companies to customize funding requests to reflect the needs of their organizations. This means that users can add special discounts to make their funding requests more attractive. Furthermore, they can add a social media Share2Earn program, further boosting their requests' desirability. Borroe.Finance is also an opportunity to invest in businesses with low-risk and high-reward potential. $ROE is in Stage 1 of its presale, yet excitement is rising following its 25% increase from its beta Stage. It is trading at $0.0125. Yet all eyes are on the end of its presale when Borroe.Finance ($ROE) will rise to $0.040. When $ROE reaches $0.040, it will have realized a 300% increase from its initial price. A 300% increase will make Borroe.Finance ($ROE) one of the best DeFi coins.
