Los Angeles – September 15, 2026 -- iodyne will run its Pro Mini Smart Drive live across four partner booths at IBC2026 in Amsterdam, marking the first time European attendees see the device operating in real production workflows rather than a display case.

Westminster, Colorado – September 15, 2026 -- Trimble has unveiled four new GNSS receiver modules — the BD1090, BD1092, BD1092i and BX1092i — built on its next-generation Maxwell 8 technology, targeting OEM integrators in geospatial, marine, construction and mining sectors facing rising GPS jamming and spoofing threats.

New JammerGuard system defends against full spectrum of jamming signals

The centerpiece of the launch is Trimble JammerGuard, a comprehensive anti-jamming and anti-spoofing capability that deploys automatically and independently. Unlike conventional anti-jamming tools that counter only select jammer types, JammerGuard is designed to handle jamming broadly while authenticating that reported positions are genuine.

Las Vegas – September 15, 2026 -- Superfruit Juice Company LLC has launched its SOPREMETM Soursop brand on Amazon, marking a new phase in the company's push to expand wholesale distribution of soursop-based beverages across the United States.

Company positions SOPREME as world's first premium soursop juice brand

SOPREMETM Soursop makes a 100% pure juice with pulp derived from a single ingredient: non-GMO soursop fruit, scientifically known as Annona muricata and also called guanabana or graviola. The fruit is widely consumed across the Caribbean, Latin America, Africa and Southeast Asia but remains largely unfamiliar to U.S. consumers, a gap the company is targeting for growth.

Washington – September 15, 2026 -- Exiger has compressed what was estimated as a three-year, $180 million platform overhaul into a four-month, $20 million sprint, launching an AI-native version of its 1Exiger supply chain and trade compliance platform with backing from Carlyle, Insight Partners, and JMI Equity.

Exiger's new AI development engine writes 95% of first-generation code

The company's AI product development lifecycle (AI-PDLC) automates each stage of software development, integrating with Exiger's secure CI/CD pipeline atop a proprietary dataset the firm describes as the largest in supply chain, defense, and corporate intelligence, spanning three trillion data points. CEO Brandon Daniels said the platform allows a team of a few hundred 'Experience Builders' and engineers to match output typically requiring 10,000 staff engineers at larger firms.

Stuttgart – September 15, 2026 -- Stuttgart-based ERP vendor Planat GmbH has launched an 'AI Ready' strategy that lets manufacturing SMEs integrate artificial intelligence tools without committing to a single vendor or deployment model.

Planat decouples AI integration from fixed vendor lock-in

Marco Bux, Principal Product Manager and Head of Development at Planat, said the ERP system is built so that customers can select AI technologies and operating models that match their own requirements rather than being forced into a predetermined path. "AI Ready means for us that new AI technologies should be integrable in the future without users having to commit early to a specific route," Bux said, framing the approach as a matter of investment protection for mid-sized manufacturers.

Washington – September 15, 2026 -- NGP VAN has rolled out a redesigned Bulk Upload workflow aimed at eliminating one of the most error-prone tasks for Democratic and progressive campaign staff, automatically detecting file types and flagging formatting issues before an import runs.

New workflow catches errors before data enters the system

The updated tool performs pre-validation checks that surface formatting and matching problems ahead of an import, replacing a process that previously required staff to manually identify file types and troubleshoot errors after uploads failed. Column mapping is now automated, matching spreadsheet fields directly to NGP VAN's data fields and cutting repetitive manual setup.

NEW YORK – September 15, 2026 -- Macabacus has launched Deck Check AIR, an AI-powered review tool embedded directly in PowerPoint, as up to 62% of finance teams report shipping AI-generated errors in financial models and deal documents to clients.

Deck Check AIR audits financial logic across entire presentations

The tool uses generative AI to scan every slide in a deck, flagging miscalculations and logic inconsistencies rather than just formatting issues. It was built to review high-stakes documents including pitch books, investment committee memoranda, M&A consequences analyses, portfolio reviews, and board materials.

Berlin – September 15, 2026 -- Midea has sold more than 10 million air conditioners using the natural refrigerant R290 since 2018, cutting an estimated 5.2 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent emissions, the company said at IFA 2026 in Berlin.

Midea holds the top spot in R290 air conditioner production for a 16th consecutive year

The company positioned itself as the world's largest manufacturer of R290-based air conditioning units, citing the refrigerant's near-zero CO2 footprint, absence of PFAS chemicals, and roughly 10% higher energy efficiency compared with conventional alternatives. Midea said the emissions avoided through its R290 sales volume are comparable to the carbon absorption capacity of 6.2 million hectares of Amazon rainforest. A cutaway model at its booth let visitors view the compressor technology in operation.
