San Francisco – October 29, 2026 -- Arango, a graph-native data platform provider, has opened an expanded office in Cologne to host customer training and architecture workshops, and it convened its first Customer Advisory Board there with 12 customers on October 22.

The office is located at the Deichmannhaus, Bahnhofsvorplatz 1. It extends Arango's presence in Germany and the DACH region and gives customers and partners across EMEA direct access to the company's engineering and technical teams.

Arango targets two production bottlenecks for AI agents and graph workloads

The workshops address two problems the company says enterprises face when moving to production. AI agents struggle when answers depend on connected, current data across multiple sources, and can miss context without the relationships, freshness and supporting evidence that tie data together.

OCONOMOWOC – October 29, 2026 -- Liberty Systems, a maker of on-site nitrogen generation and compressed air systems, is more than doubling its production capacity from three bays to seven by moving its headquarters and production from Waukesha, Wis., to a 100,000-square-foot facility in Oconomowoc.
