Product Launch

Boston – September 22, 2026 -- QuEra Computing and Hewlett Packard Enterprise have agreed to integrate neutral-atom, fault-tolerant quantum computing systems with the HPE Cray supercomputing platform, giving enterprises and national laboratories an on-premises route to quantum capabilities alongside cloud access.

QuEra and HPE target hybrid quantum-classical workflows for on-premise deployment

The collaboration will let HPC centers run classical computation on Cray systems while offloading select subproblems to QuEra's quantum hardware within the same facility. The companies are pursuing integrated testbeds, hybrid algorithm co-design, software interoperability, and system-level performance benchmarking ahead of deployment.

QuEra and HPE have worked together since 2025, and HPE showcased a magic-state demonstration featuring QuEra's technology at HPE Discover Las Vegas 2026.

Ottawa, ON – September 22, 2026 -- The Federal Aviation Administration has extended its partnership with Solace to modernize SWIM, the national data network that has distributed real-time flight plans, surveillance data, weather events and airspace notices since 2011.

FAA rolls out Enhanced SWIM Cloud Services built on the Solace Platform

The extension supports delivery of Enhanced SWIM Cloud Services (ESCS), an overhaul of SWIM's developer experience and data exchange model. ESCS will enable bidirectional data flow, allowing FAA Data Partners to publish data back into the network and participate directly in collaborative decision-making rather than only receiving feeds.

Oakland – September 22, 2026 -- Fair Trade USA has launched Stories of Impact, a public data platform built on its Impact Intelligence Hub, giving buyers and consumers an interactive view of the supply chains behind Fair Trade Certified products.

Platform launch precedes October's Fair Trade Month campaign

The rollout arrives days before Fair Trade Month, timed to give the public early access to impact data as the organization's annual campaign begins. This year's campaign theme is "Fair Trade Future."

Site combines mapping, producer stories and 2025 metrics

The platform includes an interactive impact map, a producer story library covering 2023 to present, visualized 2025 impact metrics, eco-region overlays showing the environments tied to specific certified products, and cross-regional project themes spanning multiple commodities.

New York – September 22, 2026 -- PulsePoint has launched DTC Explorer, a self-service workspace that lets pharma marketers build and publish clinically-informed consumer audiences in hours instead of the longer timelines previously required for custom segment creation.

New tool cuts audience-building time by connecting clinical claims data to consumer targeting

DTC Explorer draws on PulsePoint's proprietary Bespoke Audiences, which are built from de-identified diagnosis, drug, and treatment claims. Users can filter by consumer demographics, clinical signals, prescribed drugs, insurance provider, geography, or NPI list, reviewing real-time aggregate device and consumer counts as they refine selections before publishing directly to the PulsePoint platform for activation.

Minneapolis – September 22, 2026 -- Perforce Software has launched Delphix Synthetic Data, a tool it calls the first AI-native solution capable of generating realistic, referentially intact test data across enterprise systems on demand.

Perforce says the tool cuts test data wait times from weeks to minutes

The platform automatically scans metadata, schemas, and data relationships across source systems, removing the manual configuration required by legacy synthetic data tools. Developers, testers, and AI agents can describe the data they need using natural language prompts and receive it immediately, according to the company, rather than waiting days or weeks as with prior methods.

Perforce positions the tool for use cases where production data is restricted, incomplete, or unavailable, including new feature development, edge-case testing, and agentic development workflows.

Beijing – September 22, 2026 -- ADAMA Ltd. (SZSE 000553) has launched Actagon®, a ready-mix pre-emergent herbicide for wheat growers in India, targeting the herbicide-resistant grass weed Phalaris minor.

ADAMA combines two active ingredients into a single ready-mix formulation

Actagon® blends pyroxasulfone and metribuzin in one liquid formulation applied pre-emergence, eliminating the need for on-farm tank mixing. The dual-mode combination is designed to deliver long-lasting control of Phalaris minor along with other grass and broadleaf weeds while supporting resistance management strategies.

Launch targets Punjab and Haryana, India's top wheat-growing states

The rollout focuses on regions where Phalaris minor pressure is highest and farmers face mounting difficulty controlling the weed. Actagon® is registered in India, with commercial launch expected in September 2026.

San Francisco – September 22, 2026 -- The Biological Computing Co. (TBC) has partnered with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to bring what it calls the world's first neuron-derived AI video model to market, cutting inference costs by 80% and speeding generation by 5x compared to the base open-source model.

TBC's software layer runs on standard AI infrastructure without new hardware

The optimization is delivered through a proprietary software layer derived from measurements of living neural activity. The layer adds less than 0.1% to the underlying model's footprint, requires no biological hardware, and demands no change to existing customer workflows, according to TBC.

San Francisco – September 22, 2026 -- Handshake, the career network for the AI economy, has launched AI Skills Studio, a free learning hub offering hands-on AI projects to more than one million employers on its platform. The tool was built with partners including Clay, Figma, Gamma, Google, Lovable, Notion, OpenAI, Replit, Salesforce, Southern New Hampshire University, and Vercel.

Job seekers complete AI 'missions' in 10 to 45 minutes using real practitioner tools

AI Skills Studio offers personalized, project-based missions that produce a tangible output, ranging from automated workflows to working software. An AI Skills Instructor guides learners through the process, and early users have built interactive games, data dashboards, personal portfolios, and sales and marketing tools.

Poughkeepsie, N.Y. – September 22, 2026 -- Marist University and IBM have launched an Innovation Incubator equipped with an IBM z17 mainframe, extending their five-decade partnership into university-wide artificial intelligence research.

IBM z17 mainframe brings enterprise-scale AI computing to Marist campus

IBM provided the z17 system to give students and faculty access to enterprise technology built for the performance, security and reliability demands of large organizations, enabling hands-on application development and testing.

Atlanta – September 22, 2026 -- Siemba has launched general availability of Siemba MCP, a Model Context Protocol server that lets security and engineering teams run penetration tests and generate finished security analysis by chatting directly with AI assistants, eliminating the need for a separate dashboard login.

Six packaged skills replace manual dashboard analysis

Siemba MCP ships as a single plugin containing a connector and six named skills: Test Analysis, Kill Chain, Critical Briefing, Remediation Plan, Attack Surface, and CISO Report. Test Analysis reads login screenshots to diagnose failed authenticated test runs caused by bad credentials or unexpected multi-factor prompts. Kill Chain maps individual findings into full attack paths, rating each chain by its weakest link rather than raw severity and naming the single fix that breaks the most chains at once.
