Cyberattacks And Supply Chain Disruptions Put Focus On FiscalNote’s (NYSE: NOTE) Dragonfly Security Intelligence To Help Leading Organizations Build Resilience Through Intelligence

Benzinga

By Jad Malaeb, Benzinga In today's interconnected world, businesses face various geopolitical risks that can significantly impact their operations and bottom line. The risks are plentiful and various, but some have taken a specific spotlight in light of recent trends. Cybercrime, for example, proliferated during the COVID-19 pandemic, posing extreme risks to government entities, corporations and individuals, and the trend looks to be continuing in 2023. The COVID-19 pandemic also highlighted the vulnerability of global supply chains, with lockdowns and travel restrictions causing disruptions that closed down thousands of businesses and brought thousands of others to the brink of disaster. Current geopolitical risks extend beyond these two issues. Rising tensions between the East and West initiated by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine have spurred murmurs of a potential third World War. Trade sanctions on Russia’s allies have placed pressure on the price of commodities, causing massive fluctuations in the price of oil and gas in Europe. Tensions have even migrated further East toward China and Taiwan which have created risks to global security. Geopolitical risks can pose some of the largest threats to governments and businesses. To mitigate these risks, private and public organizations need access to real-time intelligence and analysis that can help them anticipate and respond to potential threats. The recent acquisition of Dragonfly Eye by FiscalNote Holdings Inc. (NYSE: NOTE), a technology company specializing in AI-driven global policy and market intelligence solutions, provides a platform that can help businesses and governments achieve this goal. Dragonfly Eye: An Intelligence Solution To Geopolitical Risks Dragonfly Eye is a UK-based security and geopolitical intelligence provider offering a range of advisory services to help organizations manage and respond to security and political risks. They provide real-time mission-critical intelligence to security, crisis management and risk professionals across multinational companies, financial institutions, public sector entities and NGOs. Their flagship Security Intelligence and Analysis Service (SIAS) platform is used by nearly half of the top 30 companies in the FTSE-500 and 90% of the world’s top 11 banks. Their services are divided into three categories: Security Risk, Political Risk, and Systems and Solutions, which include management consulting for corporate security and risk intelligence. Dragonfly’s services help organizations manage geopolitical risks such as supply chain issues and foreign cyber attacks by providing early warning detection and forecasting to anticipate threats, risk rating systems around potential major disruptions, and access to critical analysts and embedded intelligence. Their intelligence-led security support and consultative political risk management services for investors in emerging markets are designed to help security decision-makers evaluate and respond to threats and risks. With the acquisition of Dragonfly, FiscalNote becomes a significantly enhanced platform to provide businesses with solutions to supply chain disruptions, cybersecurity attacks and other geopolitical risks.

Sundance Institute Receives $4 Million Endowment Gift from Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria

Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria

Today the nonprofit Sundance Institute announced the largest endowment gift in its history, a $4 million dollar endowment to the Institute’s Indigenous Program from the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria (FIGR). The opportunities created through the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria | Sundance Institute Endowment will provide support for Indigenous artists from California-based tribes, both federally and non-federally recognized. The gift will allow Sundance Institute to expand the offerings already available to artists through the Indigenous Program, an integral component of the Institute’s work that officially began in 1994 and has been woven into the organization’s values since its inception in 1981, when Native American filmmakers were invited by founder Robert Redford to participate in the originating meetings of Sundance Institute and its first filmmaking lab. The endowment gift was facilitated by FIGR Tribal Chairman Greg Sarris, who himself was a participant in Sundance Institute’s 1992 Screenwriters Lab. In the immediate future, the endowment will create a new fellowship for emerging and mid-career Indigenous artists with a project in development or production, providing critical financial and creative support. The Graton fellows will each receive a grant of $25,000, yearlong creative mentorship from Indigenous Program staff, access to creative and professional development opportunities, and support to attend the Sundance Film Festival. The gift will also support the creation of scholarships with Sundance Collab, Sundance Institute’s digital learning space for artists from around the world. Applications are open from now until August 28, 2023 for the first round of fellowships and scholarships to be distributed in 2024. “As a nonprofit, the Institute is so grateful to Greg Sarris and the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria on this incredibly generous gift that will ensure we are able to continue meaningfully supporting the development of the careers of Indigenous storytellers from tribes throughout the state of California,” said Joana Vicente, Sundance Institute CEO. “It means a lot to us that so many Native talents will be provided a space to learn, connect, and create thanks to this substantial support, and we’re especially appreciative of Greg for giving back to the Sundance family he has belonged to for decades.” “So much of cinema’s history and the establishment of the American film industry has been created within California, but very rarely has it ever included the people on whose very land sustained it. That’s why it’s so heartening to think of all the artists that will benefit from this generous gift,” said Adam Piron, Director of Sundance Institute’s Indigenous Program.“The ripple effect of the opportunities created through this endowment will be significant. Our program is dedicated to empowering a broad range of Indigenous voices, and we’re so excited to be able to expand our mission, specifically to California Indigenous tribes, with the addition of the fellowship and Collab scholarships.” “When I was a part of the Screenwriter’s Lab at Sundance in 1992, I witnessed firsthand the incredible support that the Institute provides to all artists, but Indigenous talent specifically,” said Greg Sarris, Tribal Chairman of the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria. “We are excited to see the creative breakthroughs from future fellows and scholarship recipients. Supporting and nurturing these artists will open up pathways to success for the entire California Indigenous creative community and enable us to tell our stories.” Sundance Institute has a rich history in supporting Indigenous storytellers who have made successful careers working in the film and television industry. Over the years, we have championed Sydney Freeland, Sterlin Harjo, Sky Hopinka, Blackhorse Lowe, Fox Maxy, Caroline Monnet, Shaandiin Tome, Erica Tremblay, Taika Waititi, and more. The Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria | Sundance Institute Endowment will help Sundance further grow this community. Interested applicants must be affiliated with a tribe within the state of California and can learn more here. *** About the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria Graton Rancheria is a federally recognized Indian tribe comprising Coast Miwok and Southern Pomo Indians. Legislation restoring federal recognition to the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria was signed into law in December 2000. Tribal lands are located in Rohnert Park, Sonoma County, Calif.

$1.1 Trillion Was Invested In The Transition To Clean Energy In 2022 – This Company Reports Capitalizing On The Trend With Its First-In-Class Thematic ETFs

Benzinga

Thematic exchange-traded funds (ETFs) take advantage of long-term market trends, and the portfolios for these funds are often involved in industry-shaping innovations. At the start of 2023, thematic ETFs totaled $84.6 billion in assets under management (AUM). An example of a company leading the charge in clean energy market-focused ETFs is Sprott Asset Management, a subsidiary of Sprott Inc. (TSX: SII) and a global asset manager with differentiated and real asset portfolios. Sprott Asset Management has a first-mover advantage, with the only ETF to offer pure-play exposure to a wide variety of critical minerals and mining equities. Critical minerals are the natural materials required for the generation, transmission and storage of clean energy. As low carbon and clean energy infrastructure is adopted across the globe, the need for critical minerals, such as lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese and graphite, is increasing rapidly. By 2040, one model predicts that demand for copper and rare earth elements will increase by 40%, while nickel and cobalt demand will increase by 70%, and lithium by almost 90%. A record-breaking $1.1 trillion was invested globally into low carbon energy transition in 2022, in part to meet the demand for critical minerals. However, it is estimated that the average needs to be about quadruple what is being spent now to meet net-zero targets. Sprott’s Pure-Play Thematic ETFs Sprott Inc. was founded in 1981 and has spent decades establishing itself as a global investment leader in precious metals and energy transition minerals. It has primarily been involved in upstream mineral companies, such as mining and development companies. Sprott Asset Management has been able to leverage its parent company’s network of industry relationships. Its Energy Transition Materials ETF (NASDAQ: SETM) is unique because it provides pure-play access to companies at the heart of the clean energy transition. Each security undergoes a process of rigorous selection so that every company in the portfolio is hand-picked from a wide range of possible assets. As part of the index construction process, the company looks at the 90,000+ companies with global primary security equities. It then applies a series of screening criteria, using competitive analysis and in-house research, to select the top companies for investment. It also conducts periodical rebalancing based on its weight criteria. Because of Sprott’s extensive background in the mining industry, the Energy Transition Materials ETF can target companies upstream in the mining and material acquisition process. These companies are more likely than downstream companies to be recipients of the increased global funding in the clean energy transition, according to the company. Sprott Asset Management offers a range of other ETFs in the critical minerals sector. These include its Lithium Miners ETF (NASDAQ: LITP), Junior Copper Miners ETF (NASDAQ: COPJ), Uranium Miners ETF (NYSE Arca: URNM), and Junior Uranium Miners ETF (NASDAQ: URNJ), and its Nickel Miners ETF (NASDAQ: NIKL).

Minuteman Press in Nashville, TN Completes Exterior Full-Wrap Rebranding of the Iconic Grand Ole Opry House Music Venue

Minuteman Press International Inc

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Grand Ole Opry House, owned by Ryman Hospitality Partners, is one of the most legendary music venues in the USA. Thanks to Minuteman Press franchise owner John Taylor and his team at Minuteman Press in Nashville, the face of the Grand Ole Opry House now looks as good on the outside as the music sounds on the inside. What started out as a sales call and business cards order ten years ago has evolved into a trusted branding partnership between Minuteman Press in Nashville and Ryman Hospitality, and the result of that partnership includes incredible projects like this one – the full-wrap exterior rebranding of the Grand Ole Opry House. Minuteman Press in Nashville is located at 415 Spence Lane, Nashville, TN 37210. John Taylor has owned the business since January of 2014 and is a member of the President’s Club for top performers across the Minuteman Press franchise system. John shares key details on working to complete this huge project on such an iconic venue. How did the project with the Grand Ole Opry come about? John Taylor: “We acquired them as a client about ten years ago. It originated with a sales call at the original The Ryman Auditorium, in downtown Nashville. The first order was a few sets of business cards. Their parent company is Ryman Hospitality. Working inward through the marketing department at Ryman Hospitality, a relationship developed. They have a lot of printers, but we stayed in touch, cross-selling where possible. Ultimately, we set them up on an online portal ordering system for their printed collateral and admin items for their various brands. We make it a habit to deliver all prospects our "Portfolio Thumb-drive". It is branded Minuteman Press and goes to them pre-loaded with our most impressive projects in categorized folders. That led to us becoming one of their trusted branding partners, I would like to say their preferred branding partner. We've done projects from Nashville to New York City for them as they open new venues.” What specifically did you do for this project? John Taylor: “We have done multiple projects at the Grand Ole Opry House. Regarding this project: It is an extraordinary surface, in that it is stamped concrete. It is made to look like a ‘rough-cut cedar’ wooden surface, with deep woodgrain and over a half-inch depth difference between the faux planks. There are two installation processes in this type of project. One is to install and register the panels together (58" wide panels). The second process is to heat and press the vinyl into the grain and contours with a heat gun/torch and foam hand roller, roughly 4" at a time. We measured, scaled and templated the whole project. We printed the vinyl on an HP 360 Latex printer, then laminated the vinyl on a GBC roll laminator (3M IJ-480 Vinyl with 3M 8520 Matte Overlaminate). We used our 55' boom truck and a rented 45' boom lift to install. The first team and truck would hang and register the vinyl. The second lift would have a heat gun, a torch, and roller to get into the grain, and a single installer with very tired arms. We blocked off an area to work every morning so tours could still safely operate every 30-60 minutes. We installed in close coordination with the security team every day and evening to avoid periodic live shows in the evenings altogether." What was the timetable / what did it take to complete the project? John Taylor: “The exterior, as all large branding projects do, began with an intense set of measurements and a write-up of all inclusions and challenges with the surface(s). We then created an Illustrator template for their art department, advising best practices and highlighting any areas to which they should pay special attention during design. The timetable was roughly 7 weeks, synopsized below: We surveyed the first week and provided them a template for artwork technicals and construction. It took them 2-3 weeks to develop art, get the individual artists' approvals, and the necessary internal management approvals. We removed the old banners and aluminum hardware, as well as prepped/cleaned the building during that period. I asked for 7-10 days to produce the vinyl. It took about a week to print, laminate and cut. We should have been able to install it in roughly one week with a crew of three. It ended up taking two weeks since the Grand Ole Opry has shows every couple of days, which limited our time (we had to be packed up and out of the way by 3 pm). The weather was also a factor." TIME LAPSE VIDEO: Full-wrap rebranding of the face of the Grand Ole Opry House – Spring 2023 – Minuteman Press, Nashville: How happy are you with the completed project? What has been the feedback you’ve received? John Taylor: “I'm extremely happy with it. I really am humbled and honored to be given the opportunity. Now, for the less-than-humble perspective; it was an intense scope of work... and we got the job done! We've had only positive feedback about this installation and people are loving the new face of the Grand Ole Opry House. My favorite reaction was from a security guard that said, ‘I haven't seen this many people stop and have their pictures taken in front of the building in years and years!’. He's been there over 15 years, so that was so gratifying to hear him say that.” John concludes, “To have our hard work appreciated, especially on such a large-scale project, it’s just a great feeling of accomplishment.” For Minuteman Press products and services and to find your local Minuteman Press, visit https://minuteman.com.
