New Orleans – October 13, 2026 -- Entergy shareholders have invested nearly $45 million in community-based environmental projects across Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas over the 25-year life of the utility's Environmental Initiatives Fund (EIF), the company said as it marked the anniversary.

Shareholder-funded EIF granted $1 million to 11 partners in 2025

Established in 2001, the EIF is a shareholder-funded grant program. In 2025 alone, it provided $1 million to 11 partner organizations. Their work spans wetland restoration, tree planting, biodiversity education and green infrastructure development.

Entergy said the fund complements its broader environmental initiatives, including long-term climate commitments and coastal restoration partnerships.

Phoenix – October 13, 2026 -- B2Gnow has released its Public Dashboards module, which lets public agencies, certifiers and general contractors publish program reports on an agency portal without requiring stakeholders to log in.

The module bundles prebuilt reports that use B2Gnow's Power Analytics, which is powered by Microsoft Power BI. The vendor says the reports are meant to cut the volume of staff inquiries by giving stakeholders direct, self-service access to program data.

Reports cover certification status and graduation tracking on infrastructure projects

The dashboards draw on infrastructure project program data. Examples include construction firm graduation statuses and project goal tracking, which public agencies, certified vendors and prime contractors use to complete work on public infrastructure projects.

Irvine – October 13, 2026 -- ATTOM has released version 1.0 of Semantic Views for its property data delivered through Snowflake, adding a layer of business context intended to help AI systems interpret and query complex real estate datasets.

ATTOM builds the semantic layer on Snowflake's native technology

The offering uses Snowflake's native Semantic View technology. It defines how ATTOM's property data points connect and should be used, so customers no longer have to build and maintain that knowledge themselves. ATTOM said it drew on decades of experience curating and standardizing property data.

Four customer benefits target AI development speed and accuracy

ATTOM lists four intended outcomes:

Global – October 13, 2026 -- Monogoto, a cloud-based connectivity provider operating in 200+ countries, has received recognition in this year's Merit Awards for its Software-Defined Connectivity Cloud, which manages public cellular, private LTE/5G and satellite networks from a single platform.

Monogoto replaces single-carrier lock-in with software control of device fleets

The platform lets businesses connect, manage and secure devices through software rather than depending on one carrier. Monogoto applies the logic of software-defined networking, long used in enterprise IT, to connected devices.

Co-founder and CTO Maor Efrati said customers can change networks, policies and security settings over the air across an entire fleet "without touching a single device."

San Jose – October 13, 2026 -- Wiwynn, Ayar Labs and Global Unichip Corp. (GUC) are showing the first live demonstration of a compute system that integrates GUC's ASIC with Ayar Labs' TeraPHY optical engine and SuperNova light source while streaming real-time health telemetry, at OCP Global Summit 2026.

Demo moves CPO from rack-level architecture to platform integration and functional validation

The demonstration advances the companies' earlier rack-level architecture collaboration. Wiwynn's system integrates GUC's multi-chip packages (MCPs) with TeraPHY optical engines (OEs), powered by the Ayar Labs SuperNova light source. Telemetry is continuously polled from the OEs inside the MCPs and displayed in real time, showing the optical link is up within the system.

Global – October 13, 2026 -- Tenable has released Nessus detection plugins built from CIQ's security advisories, so CVEs that CIQ has already fixed on Rocky Linux from CIQ Pro (RLC Pro) hosts now resolve in scan results instead of showing as unpatched.

Community advisories left CIQ fixes uncounted on pinned LTS hosts

RLC Pro LTS lets customers pin a host to a minor release and keep receiving security fixes on it. Even-numbered minor releases receive four years of security patching, and CIQ documents those fixes in its own advisories.

Tenable's existing Rocky Linux plugins draw on community Rocky Linux advisories, which do not include CIQ's. Nessus therefore compared a pinned host against the latest release, and a CVE that CIQ had already fixed on that release could still appear as unpatched. The same gap applied to packages CIQ adds beyond community Rocky Linux.

Atlanta – October 13, 2026 -- RangeWater Real Estate and Nippon Steel Kowa Real Estate Co. (NSKRE) have broken ground on Ellory House, a 274-apartment community with 39,000 square feet of integrated retail, at the center of the 73-acre Lulah Hills redevelopment in the Atlanta area.

Ellory House anchors EDENS' redevelopment of the former North DeKalb Mall

Lulah Hills is EDENS' mixed-use project on the site of the former North DeKalb Mall. Ellory House is co-sponsored by EDENS and will sit directly on Lulah Avenue, the development's main street, across from Lemon Park, its largest green space.

The building adds a residential offering to a broader plan that includes 320,000 square feet of grocery-anchored, high-end retail, along with for-sale and rental housing oriented around a walkable Main Street.

Tampa – October 13, 2026 -- HAEVN, a city-by-city matching network, has launched Meetup Spots, a program that charges local businesses $99 per month to be recommended to matched singles deciding where to meet, starting in Tampa, Florida, and Austin, Texas.

HAEVN guarantees 10 recommendations a month or the next month is free

Participating coffee shops, restaurants, bars and activity venues commit for an initial three months. HAEVN guarantees at least 10 recommendations per month; a business that receives fewer gets its next month free. There is no cap on additional recommendations.

HAEVN counts one recommendation as one placement within a Match or Recommendation. Both people in that introduction see the same Meetup Spot.

Orlando – October 13, 2026 -- Land id, a proptech mapping platform with more than 50,000 users and more than three million maps created, will present its AI-powered property insights to land brokers at two industry events in October, starting October 14 at United Country's annual conference.

Roberson presents AI Insights, Map Tours and CarPlay at United Country on October 14

Founder Steve Roberson will speak at the Grand Cypress Resort in Orlando, Florida, on the session "What's New in Land id: AI Insights, Map Tours & CarPlay." He will then travel to the Fort Worth Stockyards in Texas to speak at Keller Williams's 2026 Land Summit on October 21-23.

United Country has operated for more than a century. Keller Williams was founded in 1983. Both events draw land and ranch professionals to discuss brokerage strategies, emerging technologies and growth opportunities.

SAN FRANCISCO – October 13, 2026 -- Avive Solutions will deploy 30 Avive Connect AEDs as First Aid Sponsor of the 2026 Head of the Charles Regatta (HOCR), supporting HOCR Emergency Services medical staff during the October 16-18 event in Boston and Cambridge.

Organizers expect about 325,000 unique spectators, 11,500 competitors and 2,400 volunteers at the world's largest three-day rowing competition.

AEDs will cover the full course on bikes, boats and at fixed stations

The devices will be split across three deployment points along the Charles River course, which runs about three miles from the Boston University Boathouse to Herter Park:
