Roger Spitz Ranked #6 Futurist in the Americas (Global Gurus) and #6 Global Thought Leader on Management (Thinkers360), Announces 2027 Keynotes

Thinkers360 Top Voices 2026 and Global Gurus rankings precede a new keynote program on disruption, strategic foresight, and AI, a TEDxJacksonville talk, and a new speaker reel

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Futurist keynote speaker Roger Spitz, Chair of the Disruptive Futures Institute, ranks #6 in the Americas and #15 worldwide in Global Gurus' 2026 World's Top 30 Futurist Professionals, and #6 in Thinkers360's Top 50 Global Thought Leaders and Influencers on Management. He enters 2027 with a new keynote program, a scheduled TEDx talk, and a new speaker reel.

In October 2026, Thinkers360 also named Spitz among its Top Voices 2026, a distinction spanning October 2026 through October 2027, and features him in its Top 50 on Artificial Intelligence. Leading speaker agencies and platforms rank him among the top futurist keynote speakers for disruption, strategic foresight, and AI.

Spitz is scheduled to speak at TEDxJacksonville 2027: You Are Here on January 16, 2027. His 2027 keynote program adds "Metaruptions & Structural Unpredictability: The AAA Framework Response" and "The Law of Inaction: Agency and Leadership for Compressed Decision Windows" alongside the Visionary Trilogy (Mindset Shift, Intelligence Shift, Leadership Shift). The program examines how leaders strengthen decision-making, anticipate systemic disruption, and preserve agency as AI and Metaruptions reshape strategy.

The new 2026–2027 keynote speaker reel is available at disruptivefutures.org/speaking. Recent and upcoming engagements include Meta's Conversations 2026 in London; the PREA Investors Fall Conference in Washington, DC; the IdDC Board Directors' Summit in Santiago, Chile; and the RIMS ERM Conference in Columbus, Ohio.

"Leaders no longer choose between acting and waiting — inaction is itself a decision, and often the costliest one," said Spitz. "The 2027 program is built around that reality: developing the agency to decide effectively while the ground keeps moving."

Original HTML

NEW YORK, Oct. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ --

What is this about: Rosen Law Firm is investigating potential civil securities claims.

Why Rosen Law: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles.

Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered billions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors.

Retail Trading Platforms Post Record Quarters as Investor Apps Multiply
Image File
Original HTML

VANCOUVER, BC, Oct. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Wall Street Investor News Commentary - Four publicly listed retail investing platforms now report more than 41 million funded accounts between them, and two of them reported record quarters this summer. The pattern is the same across all of them: more people are managing their own money from a phone, and the platforms competing for them are adding research, data and AI tools alongside the trade button. Active Companies from around the markets include: Robinhood Markets, Inc. (NASDAQ: HOOD), Webull Corporation (NASDAQ: BULL), Futu Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: FUTU), eToro Group Ltd. (NASDAQ: ETOR), Morningstar, Inc. (NASDAQ: MORN).

Not every investor needs a brokerage to follow the market. A growing set of free tools sits one step before the trade, built for people who want to watch prices, understand why a stock moved and keep a watchlist without paying for a terminal. Those tools now compete on the same features the brokerages use to win accounts: live quotes, plain-language explanations and AI research.

Quote Daddy is one of them. It is a free stock-tracking app for the web, iPhone and Android with live watchlists for U.S. stocks and ETFs, interactive charts, insider activity from SEC Form 4 filings, alerts, and one-tap AI briefings that explain in plain English why a stock moved. It also tracks the latest SEC 13F holdings of well-known investors and congressional disclosed trades. Its research tool, Luxor IQ, turns live prices, a year of trend data, fundamentals, news and analyst ratings into a research note written by AI, with three free reports a day. There is no credit card and no paywall; accounts are free at quotedaddy.com.

Below are five listed platforms in the same space, the investor-facing apps and research services that millions of self-directed investors use, and what each reported in its latest quarter.

YSS Investors Have Opportunity to Lead York Space Systems Inc. Securities Lawsuit
Image File
Original HTML

NEW YORK, Oct. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of York Space Systems Inc. (NYSE: YSS): (i) common stock pursuant and/or traceable to the registration statement and prospectus (collectively, the "Registration Statement") issued in connection with York Space Systems' January 2026 initial public offering ("IPO"); and/or (ii) securities between January 29, 2026 and May 11, 2026, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period"), of the important October 30, 2026 lead plaintiff deadline.

So what: If you purchased York Space securities you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

What to do next: To join the York Space class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/cases/york-space-systems-inc/join or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than October 30, 2026. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

Why Rosen Law: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered billions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

Details of the case: According to the lawsuit, defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) York Space's onboard mission and payload software was not fully functional before satellites were launched; that (2) this ongoing trend presented a risk to York Space's contracts with the SDA, deceived the Pentagon's Space Development Agency (the "SDA") with false advertising to win its contracts, cut corners, and delivered satellites whose mission-critical software was not completed; and (3) as a result of the foregoing, defendants' positive statements about York Space's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the York Space class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/cases/york-space-systems-inc/join or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

KAPSARC TO JOIN 25TH WPC ENERGY CONGRESS IN RIYADH AS NATIONAL PARTNER

More than 20 KAPSARC leaders, researchers, and experts to contribute across the Congress's Executive, Technical, Synergy, and Special Programmes

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, Oct. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- KAPSARC participates as a National Partner in the 25th WPC Energy Congress in Riyadh, bringing its leaders and experts into discussions addressing some of the most important issues shaping the future of energy.

Taking place from 11 to 15 October 2026 under the theme "Pathways to an Energy Future for All," the Congress will be hosted in Saudi Arabia for the first time in its history. First held in London in 1933, the Congress will bring together government leaders, industry executives, policymakers, researchers, and innovators in Riyadh to examine the forces reshaping global energy systems, from security and investment to technology and sustainability.

KAPSARC's participation extends across the Congress's Executive, Technical, Synergy, and Special Programmes, alongside additional sessions and activities, reflecting the breadth of the Center's research and policy expertise. KAPSARC President Fahad Alajlan and Dr. Ghadah Alarifi, Dean of the KAPSARC School of Public Policy, are among KAPSARC's speakers in the Executive Programme.

Across the Congress, KAPSARC experts contribute research and policy perspectives on energy supply and demand, energy access, natural gas, ESG and governance, the Circular Carbon Economy, artificial intelligence, mobility, and lower-emission pathways for refining and petrochemicals.

Within the Special Programme, KAPSARC leads a Knowledge Sprint session titled "Generative AI for Evidence-Based Oil Markets," examining how generative AI can support oil-market analysis and policy research. The session explores AI-assisted data workflows, econometric and scenario analysis, responsible AI practices, and the translation of technical findings into decision-ready insights.

KAPSARC also participates in the World Café through a session on "Carbon Dioxide Removal Technologies," bringing together experts, policymakers, and practitioners to examine the prospects for scaling engineered carbon-removal solutions. The discussion covers direct air capture, bioenergy with carbon capture and storage, and biochar, alongside the economic, infrastructure, regulatory, carbon-market, and regional considerations influencing their deployment.

In the Synergy Programme, KAPSARC experts contribute to discussions on "Accelerating the Circular Carbon Economy Through Joint Action" and "AI Partnerships for Energy Innovation," bringing research-based perspectives to the intersection of energy, technology, and sustainability.

KAPSARC's dedicated pavilion provides another platform for knowledge exchange and engagement throughout the Congress. Structured around five thematic hubs, the pavilion brings together KAPSARC research, analytical tools, and expertise across the Oil Hub, Transportation Hub, Clean Energy Hub, AI Hub, and Collaboration Hub. Together, the hubs provide visitors with an integrated view of selected research areas and emerging issues shaping energy systems, while creating opportunities for engagement with policymakers, industry leaders, researchers, and other Congress participants.

The pavilion also features the KAPSARC School of Public Policy (KSPP) and the Saudi Energy Leaders Assembly (SELA), providing additional platforms for policy education, leadership development, and knowledge exchange.

Through its participation across the Congress's programmes and sessions, alongside its dedicated thematic pavilion, KAPSARC connects Saudi-based research and policy expertise with international discussions on energy security, investment, technology, and sustainability.

STARMUS VIII Announces Two Young Changemakers as Junior Medal Winners
Image File
Original HTML

Valeria Corrales receives the Junior Stephen Hawking Medal and Aneeshwar Kunchala receives the Junior Jane Goodall Earth Medal

CANARY ISLANDS, Spain, Oct. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- STARMUS VIII, the premier international festival of science, music and exploration, is proud to announce the recipients of two special distinctions celebrating the next generation of scientific and environmental leaders.

Valeria Corrales, from Spain, will receive the Junior Stephen Hawking Medal, in recognition of her exceptional work bringing science, programming and technology to young audiences.

Aneeshwar Kunchala, from the United Kingdom, will receive the Junior Jane Goodall Earth Medal, honouring his remarkable dedication to wildlife conservation, biodiversity and inspiring children to protect the natural world.

Although their work focuses on different fields, both young changemakers share a conviction at the heart of STARMUS: knowledge should inspire action, and age should never be a barrier to making a difference.

Valeria Corrales — Junior Stephen Hawking Medal

Valeria Corrales began her journey in science communication at the age of ten, when she co-founded the educational platform ValPat in 2018 alongside her mentor Patricia Heredia.

What began as an initiative to make science and technology more accessible has grown into a major Spanish-language STEM education platform, with more than 750 videos and 240,000 YouTube subscribers.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Valeria and Patricia offered 100 consecutive days of free online STEM classes, helping thousands of children across Spain and Latin America continue learning during lockdown.

Valeria has since received national and international recognition. She was named among Forbes Spain's 23 Changemakers in 2023, became a finalist for the Princess of Girona Social Award in 2025, and was selected as a Top 10 finalist for the Global Student Prize from nearly 11,000 applications and nominations across 148 countries.

Now studying Computational Media at the Georgia Institute of Technology, she continues to explore how science, technology, creativity and storytelling can transform education.

Her achievements reflect the spirit of Stephen Hawking's belief in the power of curiosity and the importance of sharing scientific knowledge with everyone.

Aneeshwar Kunchala — Junior Jane Goodall Earth Medal

At just eleven years old, Aneeshwar Kunchala has already become an internationally recognized voice for wildlife conservation and environmental education.

His extraordinary journey began when he was only four, after learning about a whale that had died because of plastic pollution. That experience inspired a mission to protect animals and encourage others to care for the natural world.

Since then, Aneeshwar has reached international audiences through television documentaries, educational programmes, public speaking, journalism and art.

His work includes appearances and productions for BBC, Sky Kids and Channel 5, while his conservation message has reached audiences at major international events and institutions.

Aneeshwar holds three Guinness World Records and has received honours including the Diana Award and the British Citizen Youth Award. He has also been named a young ambassador for the National Trust and became the first young columnist for National Geographic Kids UK. He has also been recognized with the Young Scientific Explorer honorary award - from the Scientific Exploration Society.

His work combines scientific curiosity, compassion for animals and an extraordinary ability to communicate with younger generations.

His guiding message captures the simplicity and urgency of his mission:

"Save the animals and make sure the world looks beautiful."

The Junior Jane Goodall Earth Medal recognizes not only his achievements, but also his determination to inspire a generation that sees the protection of biodiversity as a shared responsibility.

Two Young Voices, One Shared Future

Stephen Hawking dedicated his life to understanding the Universe. Jane Goodall transformed our understanding of the natural world and our responsibility to protect it.

Through these two Junior Medals, STARMUS celebrates the continuation of their legacies in a new generation.

Valeria Corrales is helping young people discover the power of science and technology. Aneeshwar Kunchala is inspiring them to protect the extraordinary diversity of life on our planet.

Together, they represent a powerful message: the future of science and the future of our planet belong to those who are curious enough to ask questions and courageous enough to act.

The awards will be presented during STARMUS VIII, taking place in Tenerife and La Palma, Canary Islands, from 17 to 22 October 2026, under the theme The Search for Truth. The Festival will bring together some of the world's leading figures in science, space exploration, technology, music and the arts to explore the importance of evidence, knowledge, reason and scientific thinking in an increasingly complex world.

Solvely.ai Makes the Case for AI That Builds Human Capability

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Solvely.ai, an applied AI company, outlined its approach to AI agents for learning: helping people build understanding and skills, rather than simply completing tasks.

Co-founder Richard Weiqi Zhang shared this perspective at Funding Conviction, a September 18, 2026, webinar on education investment and the future of learning. Hosted by Edtech Insiders, the discussion featured Reach Capital's Steve Kupfer and Minerva's Ben Nelson.

"Learning has to make the person more capable," said Zhang. "The goal is still to empower the learner, not to replace them."

Building learning-specific intelligence

To support this approach, Solvely develops its own specialized models and agent systems for learning. It uses education-domain post-training to tailor models to specific learning tasks. Its agentic system identifies instructional content in images and documents, segments individual questions and routes each problem to the appropriate solving algorithm and visualization tools. Its agent architecture brings models, context and educational tools together to create explanations, visual exploration and practice. For problem-solving, Solvely cross-checks responses across multiple models.

An Anthropic case study shows how Solvely uses Claude to create interactive visualizations that learners can explore by changing inputs.

From answers to understanding

With Solvely's AI math solver, learners can work through text or image-based questions with step-by-step explanations, ask follow-up questions and explore problems visually through whiteboard explanations. For exam preparation, they can turn their own course materials into study guides, flashcards and quizzes for review and practice.

For writing review, its AI detector provides signals for closer examination, not proof of authorship. Its published AI-text detection research details how the company develops, fine-tunes and evaluates task-specific models. Users remain responsible for reviewing output and following applicable academic requirements.

Industry recognition

Solvely was named to Nasdaq and Notable Capital's inaugural Prosumer AI 40, alongside OpenAI, Anthropic, Cursor and Lovable. It was also selected for the 2026 GSV Cup 50, recognizing 50 of the world's most promising EdTech startups.

Rosen Law Firm Encourages Azenta, Inc. Investors to Inquire About Securities Class Action Investigation - AZTA
Image File
Original HTML

NEW YORK, Oct. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ --

Why: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, continues to investigate potential securities claims on behalf of shareholders of Azenta, Inc. (NASDAQ: AZTA) resulting from allegations that Azenta may have issued materially misleading business information to the investing public.

So what: If you purchased Azenta securities you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement. The Rosen Law Firm is preparing a class action seeking recovery of investor losses.

What to do next: To join the prospective class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/cases/azenta-inc/join or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action.

What is this about: On August 24, 2026, Azenta filed with the SEC a current report on Form 8-K which stated that on "August 22, 2026, John P. Marotta resigned as President and Chief Executive Officer of Azenta, Inc. (the "Company") and as a member of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board"), effective as of August 22, 2026 (the "Effective Date")."

On this news, Azenta's stock fell 12% on August 24, 2026.

Why Rosen Law: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered billions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

KAILAS Launches "Stay Warm, Stay Together" Campaign Celebrating the Bonds Behind Every Climb

CHENGDU, China, Oct. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- KAILAS stands as one of the world's three full-category climbing brands. Its new campaign, "Stay Warm, Stay Together," celebrates the trust and mutual support at the heart of climbing. Featuring Jon Otto, Principal of Chengdu Leadclimb Outdoor Instruction Center; alpinist Zhang Qingwei (Ye Ren); KAILAS athletes Liu Junfu and Zhou Song; and internationally renowned alpinist Aleš Česen, the campaign explores the bonds that help climbers face demanding mountain environments. Zhang Qingwei and Zhou Song received the Best Climbing Achievement Award at the 19th China Outdoor Golden Rhino Awards.

Every partnership has its own story. Jon Otto and Ye Ren have known each other for two decades, sharing technical knowledge before going on to teach and climb together. Through joint training and increasingly challenging alpine climbs, Liu Junfu and Zhou Song have developed a strong understanding. Česen has built trusted partnerships across countries and cultures through shared expertise, sound judgment and a common passion for the mountains.

In challenging alpine conditions, a trusted partner offers practical and emotional support. Reliable equipment is equally essential, particularly at high altitude, where low temperatures and demanding terrain test climbers' limits.

Designed around the needs of snow-mountain climbing, the KAILAS GT Glacier Traverse Series balances warmth, protection and lightweight performance. Selected styles feature goose down with a fill power of up to 1,000, paired with ZERO-Gravity Ultralight Fabric for an exceptional warmth-to-weight ratio. This combination helps climbers stay warm while reducing unnecessary weight.

"Stay Warm, Stay Together" reflects the warmth of human connection and dependable technical gear. KAILAS develops equipment for climbers, from high-altitude down jackets and technical shells to climbing hardware. Its products are tested and refined in real mountain environments, with performance, protection and safety at the core.

Since late September, campaign imagery has appeared on outdoor digital screens across 13 cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Shenzhen and Macao, bringing climbing stories and culture to a wider audience.

For KAILAS, climbing is more than an individual pursuit. Beyond technical expertise and reliable equipment, trust, cooperation and the people who stand beside us matter just as much. Through this campaign, KAILAS celebrates the partnerships that help climbers overcome challenges and move forward together.

Stay Warm, Stay Together.

AI Revenue Questions Pull Semiconductor Stocks Off October Highs

AI Revenue Questions Pull Semiconductor Stocks Off October Highs

VANCOUVER, BC, Oct. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Stock Preachers News Commentary - Semiconductor equities began October on firm footing, with the iShares Semiconductor ETF advancing for five consecutive sessions and the sector's largest company reaching a record high, before retreating through the week ended October 9. Sentiment shifted on Thursday, when the Financial Times reported that OpenAI had told investors its annualized revenue was nearing $50 billion at the end of September, below the approximately $70 billion figure that had been cited in media reports. Because semiconductor valuations are closely tied to expectations for AI infrastructure spending, the report weighed on the group, and the PHLX Semiconductor Index finished the week lower while the broader market was more resilient. Active Companies from around the markets with current developments this week include: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (NYSE: TSM), NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ: NVDA), Intel Corporation (NASDAQ: INTC), Arm Holdings plc (NASDAQ: ARM), Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: MU).

The pullback follows a period of substantial gains. The PHLX Semiconductor Index was up 73% year to date as of late September, and several of the sector's largest constituents have recorded triple-digit gains in 2026. Higher long-term Treasury yields and a rise in crude oil prices added pressure midweek, as higher discount rates tend to weigh most on companies valued on long-term growth expectations.

Company-specific developments shaped performance within the group. Two companies reported record milestones early in the week, while others faced open questions regarding a manufacturing partnership, ongoing litigation and the sustainability of AI-related demand.

In other industry developments and happenings in the market this week include:

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (NYSE: TSM)

TSMC shares reached a record high on October 5 after Elon Musk confirmed early-stage discussions about a role for the company in his planned Terafab chip complex in Texas, calling them "just discussions." On October 8 the company reported September revenue of NT$511.86 billion, up 54.6% from a year earlier and down 0.6% from August, bringing revenue for the first nine months of 2026 to NT$3.90 trillion, up 41.1%.

NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ: NVDA)

NVIDIA shares reached a record high on October 5, bringing their year-to-date gain to approximately 24.8% and their advance since the August 26 earnings report to approximately 14%. The company has also shown relative strength during recent sector weakness: on September 28, when semiconductor shares declined on AI safety concerns, NVIDIA advanced after announcing a $150 billion share buyback authorization and releasing two open-source tools designed to help control AI agents.

Intel Corporation (NASDAQ: INTC)

Intel shares declined on October 5 after Musk indicated that TSMC could participate in Terafab, a project Intel joined as a partner in April. On October 8 Musk said his companies will build and operate the Texas complex and that another chipmaker could at most sublease part of the site. Intel has said it will remain involved, although the scope of its role has not been finalized. Despite the decline, Intel shares were up approximately 215% year to date as of the October 5 close.

Arm Holdings plc (NASDAQ: ARM)

Arm shares declined during a five-day jury trial in federal court in Wilmington, Delaware, where Qualcomm alleges that Arm breached their licensing agreements and sought to undermine Qualcomm's dealings with Meta Platforms. Arm denies the claims. The case went to the jury on October 9, and the judge has not yet ruled on whether a clause that could let Qualcomm stop paying royalties for five years is enforceable. Arm reports earnings on November 4.

Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: MU)

Micron shares declined alongside other memory producers despite Rosenblatt raising its price target to $1,900 from $1,500 on October 6, citing a beat-and-raise quarter and the potential for buybacks. Memory producers had advanced with the broader group in early October before sentiment shifted later in the week.
