Pro League Network, NBA Legend Kevin Garnett and Big Ticket Sports to Launch “str33t,” 3x3 Pro Streetball League

Pro League Network

Pro League Network (PLN), the leading sports entertainment company producing fun, bettable sports, and Kevin Garnett’s sports venture arm Big Ticket Sports announced today a joint-venture to launch str33t, a new 3x3 professional streetball-style basketball league. The first str33t series is expected to launch in early 2024 and will feature teams competing over 4 weeks from some of the best streetball cities. Players will compete as men, women and co-ed teams and play under FIBA 3x3 rules with daily and season-long prize pools. Teams will square off in a round robin format culminating in a final championship. 3x3 basketball debuted as an Olympic sport at the Tokyo Olympics. “HoopItUp is the leader in 3x3 and I’m excited to work with the PLN team to create a professional series with str33t that gives the incredible 3x3 players a major platform to show what they can do to fans across the country,” said Garnett. With the partnership, Kevin Garnett, and Big Ticket Sports become investors in PLN, which recently announced its seed funding from IA Ventures and Eberg Capital. Garnett will also advise on the strategic direction of the str33t league. Big Ticket Sports owns and operates HoopItUp, the grassroots 3x3 basketball tour which has had millions of participants in city-based events since 1989. “The fast-paced 3x3 games along with the raw and organic energy of streetball is going to be so exciting for these co-ed professional ballers,” said PLN co-founders Bill Yucatonis and Mike Salvaris. “And to build it with an NBA legend and leader like KG is at a whole other level." With roots in urban areas in the U.S. since the 1980s, 3x3 has become one of the most popular forms of basketball worldwide in recent years. The Olympics introduced 3x3 basketball to its basketball program at the Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics. “With the average 3x3 basketball game taking less than 20 minutes, we believe str33t is tailormade for digital consumption and sports betting. We are thrilled to be collaborating with Bill, Mike and the PLN team on this dynamic venture,” said George Daniel, CEO of Big Ticket Sports and HoopItUp.

News Release

Will Cardano (ADA), Borroe.Finance ($ROE) or SUI (SUI) Reach $1 First?

Blockchain Digest

NFT trading volume has been declining leading to fears about how Cardano's (ADA) network activity will be affected. Likewise, Sui (SUI) has been on a consistent fall since it launched its Mainnet in May 2023. Meanwhile, analysts say profit projections seem to lie with Borroe.Finance, the decentralized lending marketplace. $ROE is already one of the most popular new ICOs. Yet, can it outclass ADA and SUI? Let's see what analysts are saying. >>BUY $ROE TOKENS NOW<< Borroe.Finance ($ROE): Connecting Web 3 Businesses to Easy Loans Timely and efficient funding is crucial to the development of any sector of the business world. This is more true of the Web 3 industry, which often struggles to find funding opportunities. With a strong recognition of this need, Borroe.Finance ($ROE) was created. The platform uses community-based lending to create efficient avenues to instant cash. Borroe.Finance companies raise funding from supportive communities by facilitating the trade of future and outstanding invoices. When users want to raise funds on Borroe.Finance, they allocate future earnings that they'll sell at discounted prices. Once allocated, these future invoices are minted into collateralized NFTs and placed on a live market. Borroe.Finance's creative use of NFTs to solve real-world problems makes it one of the top DeFi projects. Furthermore, perks like discounted marketplace fees, priority notifications, and voting rewards make Borroe.Finance ($ROE) attractive to investors. Over 100 million $ROE tokens have been sold since the start of Borroe.Finance’s presale. $ROE's current price is $0.0150 in Stage 2 of its presale. When $ROE's presale ends, it would have grown by 166.6% to reach $0.0400. Projections are pretty realistic, considering its Beta Stage investors have already pocketed 50% ROI to date. >>BUY $ROE TOKENS NOW<< Cardano (ADA) Affected by Decline In NFT Market A report from CryptoSlam shows a consistent decline in NFT trading volume. The reports have caused concern in Cardano's (ADA) community. Cardano (ADA) has become one of the most popular NFT networks in recent years. Yet, the decline in general NFT activity is set to affect Cardano's user adoption. As Cardano's community panicked over falling NFT activity, ADA has fallen in the market following the September market crash. ADA was trading at $0.27 on August 29. By September 25, it fell by 11.1% to $0.24 as the market was overwhelmed with bearish pressures. Cardano's falling DeFi activity will undoubtedly affect ADA’s possible recovery. Analysts say Cardano's (ADA) falling adoption will worsen as it faces competition from Solana and Ethereum. With Cardano's continued decline in NFT activity, ADA could drop to $0.22. SUI Records Sharp Drop Since Mainnet Launch in May The bearish pressures in the market over the past few months have taken a sharp toll on Sui. Despite launching its mainnet on May 3, 2023, SUI has fallen sharply. The September 1 market crash has worsened SUI's market performance. It was trading at $0.58 on August 27. By September 1, the market crashed, sending SUI's price down by 17.2% to $0.48. The bearish pressure continued, causing SUI to close at $0.44 on September 25, falling by 8.3%. SUI has lost over 50% value from its May 3 price of $1.40 after its mainnet launch. Given the rising bearish pressures, analysts say SUI might not recover until next year. If this happens, SUI could fall to $0.39.

Revenue Management Solutions, iMotions Partner to Unlock Revenue Opportunities through Menu Optimization

Revenue Management Solutions

Revenue Management Solutions (RMS), a global provider of data-driven analytics and tech-enabled solutions for restaurants, has partnered with iMotions, the world's leading software platform for studying the drivers behind human behavior, to deploy the latest human behavior technologies to improve menu engineering and unlock revenue opportunities. The partnership connects restaurant brands with the iMotions software suite, an advanced human behavior research tool with cloud data collection features. iMotions’ unique cloud-based solution uses a participant’s own webcam and a browser interface to collect data using eye tracking, facial expression and emotion recognition technologies, allowing for research to be deployed among any audience at any time, anywhere in the world. RMS then analyzes the research, giving restaurant brands exclusive access to unique metrics like the RMS Focus Score™, which quantifies consumers’ focus across the menu using multiple factors such as average duration and revisits to specific locations on the menu. The research can reveal what information consumers are truly processing on restaurant menus versus simply skimming the content. Restaurant brands gain a clearer understanding of how participants view online restaurant menus and the factors influencing their ordering behavior. RMS then applies more than 25 years of industry-leading data analytics expertise for some of the world’s largest restaurant brands to uncover opportunities for menu optimization and profit potential. “The way consumers engage with restaurants has completely transformed, but many menus are still designed based on pre-digital guidelines,” said Ryan Garner, Director of Research and Consumer Analytics at RMS. “Our pilot study identified clear gaze paths, dead spots and hot spots in digital restaurant menus — information we can translate into profit-building menu insights for our clients.” RMS and iMotions conducted the first pilot study using online eye-tracking and online facial expression analysis in late 2022, confirming that the medium affects where consumers begin when viewing an online menu (gaze paths), what they skip (dead spots) and where they spend their time (hot spots). RMS also tested when customers are most open to suggestive selling and what types of content are most impactful. These insights challenged conventional industry practices and allowed for advancement in menu engineering, all designed to drive profitability. “The restaurant business is the latest industry to recognize how the study of nonconscious behaviors using biometric technologies can challenge conventional wisdom and unlock new opportunities,” said Peter Hartzbech, iMotions Founder and CEO. “Consumer preferences, habits and lifestyles constantly evolve, and what were once impactful perspectives change. Those willing to tap into these modern tools and technologies will better understand today’s consumers and emerge most successful, while those who choose to stick with the status quo will fall behind.” The announcement builds on a collaboration that first began in 2019 with revolutionary menu design research in labs at the University of South Florida’s Muma College of Business. The study was regarded as the most comprehensive consumer menu ordering examination in 30 years. Contact RMS today to learn how menu research can benefit your restaurant. ### About Revenue Management Solutions Revenue Management Solutions (RMS) is committed to supporting restaurants through ever-changing times. Today, more than 50 major brands in 40-plus countries trust RMS. Its data-driven analytics and tech-enabled solutions optimize sales, menus and a brand’s financial health.

This Renewable Energy Company Eliminates The Barriers To Clean Energy Transition By Financing And Managing The Projects For Its Customers

Benzinga

By Rachael Green, Benzinga As demand for renewables continues to grow amid soaring fossil fuel prices and increasingly unreliable grid infrastructure, Correlate Energy Corp. (OTCQB: CIPI) seems to be positioning itself as a key player in the emerging clean energy market. The distributed energy company that provides custom clean energy solutions at no upfront cost to commercial customers reported over $4.1 million in revenue in its second quarter, representing a significant increase over the same quarter last year when it brought in $236,690 in revenue. Here’s a look at how Correlate’s business model works and what it’s looking forward to in the months ahead. Correlate Removes The Barriers Of Cost And Complexity When Transitioning To Renewable Energy Correlate’s service starts with an in-depth audit of a customer’s existing energy usage and goals. From there, the distributed energy company develops a customized operating strategy that might include a mix of solar installations, battery storage and other microgrid infrastructure along with energy efficiency upgrades and utility contracts. That mix is tailored to the company with the goal of not just helping it transition to clean energy but doing so in a way that both cuts costs and generates positive cash flow. Once the strategy is finalized, Correlate takes it a step further by collaborating with its existing network of solution providers and co-developers to actually implement those solutions at a cost-effective price, nationwide – while also often providing 100% financing so that Correlate’s customers aren’t paying any upfront costs. In May, for example, Correlate announced that it had secured $11.9 million in financing to build a 5.2-megawatt solar project for the EnerSys headquarters in Reading, Pennsylvania. Installation began in Q3, and when completed, it will become one of the largest commercial solar installations in Pennsylvania to date. In July, the company announced a joint venture with eDGe Renewable Partners to deploy up to $100 million in initial financing as well as technical and engineering resources to support solar energy projects and microgrid infrastructure nationwide for partners. After implementation, Correlate continues to work with that customer to monitor and maintain that new energy system using the company’s proprietary systems. For customers, this model eliminates the complexity, time and upfront costs of transitioning to clean energy. For Correlate, it helps reduce that initial resistance to making that transition while forming multiyear relationships with customers that could yield future sales opportunities. Renewable Energy Is Rapidly Becoming More Affordable Over The Long Term Compared To Fossil Fuel In an interview with Financial Survival Network, Correlate CEO Todd Michaels spoke about the rising costs and increasing volatility and unpredictability that come with existing non-renewable fuel sources like oil, coal, or natural gas. “The compounded average increase on electricity is 7% right now,” Michaels said. “It might go down one year because of some change. But on a compounded basis, it has never gone down since the 70s.” Meanwhile, a renewable source like solar has not only gotten cheaper over the years as technology advances, it gets even cheaper over the long term because generating your own power eliminates the risk of fluctuating fuel input costs. Moreover, with a microgrid – a series of technologies that give you the option to switch between pulling power from the grid or pulling it from your power source – you’re no longer at the mercy of a centralized grid that could be taken down by, say, a wildfire if you’re in California or a heat wave if you’re in Texas. “If the grid goes down because of a weather event,” Michaels explained. “You can choose to go off the grid and operate your own with your own sources of generation, storage, and managing your loads.” What was once relegated to a handful of early adopters has now become something that just makes economic sense. However, the cost of installing that clean energy infrastructure and the complexity of navigating a renewable energy industry that is still highly fragmented and confusing have become huge barriers even for companies who want to make the transition. That’s why Correlate provides a service as comprehensive as it does. By offering 100% financed solutions and coordinating the installation and monitoring and maintenance afterward, Correlate makes it as easy as possible for companies to achieve their energy goals. Moving forward, Correlate will make that unique approach even more cost-effective through its upcoming M&A strategy aimed at scaling its operations and services to improve efficiency and expand its range of solutions. “There’s a huge opportunity to work with decade-old businesses that are doing good work but don’t have sophisticated systems and processes, the ability to raise capital, or the project finance team to help fund their projects,” Michaels said during the interview. To help structure those potential partnerships and acquisitions, it appointed Eli Albrecht to its board of directors last month. The acclaimed M&A lawyer with extensive experience in the renewable energy sector will help the company drive roll-up opportunities in the highly fragmented clean energy landscape.

Copper Prices Rebound As Global Clean Energy Transition Drives Diversified Demand Growth

Benzinga

By Rachael Green, Benzinga After erasing the solid July gains both made in July in the first half of August, both copper and copper mining stocks seem to be rebounding in the second half of the month. The slide in the first half of the month came as China posted weaker-than-expected imports and exports for July, including declining vehicle sales and a dip in copper imports. The decline in copper prices was short-lived, though, as the overall market sentiment on the metal seems to have reversed despite the weak economic data from China last month. Like many of the metals needed in the clean energy transition, copper is rallying on the growing urgency and capital investment in reducing fossil fuel dependence. Copper is not only an important material in batteries, but also in a wide range of other components of energy storage tech and the electricity grid. A recent report from Trading Economics highlighted the dip in copper futures prices but pointed out that price levels did not decrease too far due to “market players flagged large incoming copper deficits, with current production levels failing to keep up with increasing demand for electrification”. Copper Markets Are Becoming Less Dependent On Chinese Demand For the last twenty years or so, copper prices have been largely driven by Chinese demand. The nation accounts for half of the global demand for the metal as its rapidly expanding economy created a massive need for copper to build the electrical infrastructure to power new and increasingly industrialized cities. That’s why the weaker-than-expected Chinese economic data at the start of the month were able to wipe out copper’s July gains so quickly. But, as the current rebound in prices reveals, market sentiment on the metal is gradually becoming less tethered to Chinese demand. As economies all over the globe look to transition away from fossil fuels, they’re investing more in infrastructure upgrades and new technologies that will enable them to meet their energy needs with clean and renewable sources. Many of those upgrades and new technologies are going to require copper. As such, demand for the metal is not just expected to grow but to diversify, making slight fluctuations in Chinese consumption less impactful on the overall copper market. The Critical Minerals Market Review estimates that achieving net zero emissions by 2050 — the target set by the 196 parties that signed the Paris Agreement in 2015 — global copper consumption will need to grow 60% by 2040. Meanwhile, like many other critical metals, supplies are low and struggling to keep up even with current demand levels. As demand continues to outstrip supply, miners could potentially enjoy significant revenue growth on rising copper prices, and the ones that can find new sources and open up new mines could generate strong returns for investors. Add Clean Energy Transition Exposure To Your Portfolio With Sprott ETFs Sprott Asset Management, an asset management firm that’s been focused on precious metals for decades, now offers two ETFs for investors who want broad exposure to the potential copper boom. Sprott Junior Copper Miners ETF (NYSEARCA: COPJ) tracks an index of exploration or early-stage copper miners while Sprott Energy Transition Materials ETF (NYSEARCA: SETM) tracks a broad portfolio of metals and other minerals that are playing a key role in the transition to a net zero economy.

Multi-Billion Dollar Treatment Market For Lung Infection That Causes Over 200,000 Hospitalizations Annually With Elderly, Young At Most Risk Has Game-Changing New Entrant

Benzinga

By David Willey, Benzinga Read the latest report on NanoViricides here The CDC recently issued a warning that Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), a common and highly contagious lung infection that can cause bronchitis and pneumonia, is on the rise in the Southeastern United States – and the very young and the elderly are the most at risk of developing severe incidences of RSV. Every year, there are over 2 million outpatient (non-hospitalized) cases of RSV in children under 5, and RSV is the leading cause of hospitalizations for young children. There are up to 80,000 hospitalization cases for children under 5, and there are also up to 160,000 cases of patients over 65 getting hospitalized with RSV. Up to 300 children under 5 and 10,000 adults over 65 die of RSV annually. Despite this serious disease, there were no vaccines or good treatment options until recently. The recently approved vaccines from GSK plc (NYSE: GSK) and Pfizer (NYSE: PFE) also have severe limitations. These vaccines are only for use in patients aged 60 and over. However, these vaccines can involve side effects, including atrial fibrillation, Guillain-Barré syndrome and another potentially related disorder. A recently approved vaccine for pregnant women to protect the newborn infant upon birth has the risk of preterm births. In July 2023, the FDA also approved Beyfortus, an antibody treatment for children delivered as an injection to help prevent the development of RSV. Beyfortus was developed by Sanofi (NASDAQ: SNY) and AstraZeneca (NASDAQ: AZN). It is expected to be better than a previously approved antibody (palivizumab, trade name Synagis, developed by MedImmune, now marketed by SOBI – Swedish Orphan Biovitrum) for the same indication. Like the vaccines, however, there are side effects associated with these protective antibody treatments, which can include anaphylaxis, a severe allergic reaction. Yet, there are no treatments for RSV infection except for severe hospitalized cases when children at risk of dying are given the toxic drug ribavirin at very high doses as a last resort. The market for therapeutics for RSV was worth $1.8 billion in 2022 and will reach $8.73 billion by 2031 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.9% during the forecast period, according to a recent report from Growth Plus Therapeutics. Note that there were no real treatments, only one protective antibody, Synagis, available in 2022. The therapeutic used for treating RSV is Ribavirin, a highly toxic compound also used as a therapy for hepatitis C. However, Ribavirin carries with it some severe side effects, including the destruction of red blood cells, leading to liver, kidney and spleen toxicities and failures – which limit its use to patients with a high risk of progressively severe RSV. The primary concerning side effect of Ribavirin is anemia, a decrease in red blood cells that can cause a drop in hemoglobin. Ribavirin-induced anemia can manifest within two weeks of starting the therapy and can get worse as the drug dosage increases. NanoViricides Treatment For RSV NanoViricides (NYSE American: NNVC), a leading developer of antiviral treatments through its nanomedicines platform, is developing a safe and effective alternative therapeutic for RSV. Its drug candidate, NV-387, has already been shown to not have the toxicity or side effects associated with Ribavirin, according to the company. It reports that in the recent pre-clinical animal study, NV-387 almost matched the efficacy of Ribavirin with no toxicity. This animal study was designed to mimic the lethal lung pneumonia in infants caused by RSV infection. Importantly, NV-387 is already in phase 1 human clinical trials as the active ingredient in the company’s COVID drug candidate NV-CoV-2. The company has just reported that it was found to be completely safe, with no side effects found to date, in this continuing phase 1 Study. For this reason, the company anticipates soon being able to advance NV-387 to a phase 2 human clinical trial against RSV. If the results of animal studies are replicated in humans, this nanoviricides drug could become truly a game-changer in the treatment of RSV infections.
