BLUE SHIELD OF CALIFORNIA LAUNCHES FOOD AS HEALTH INITIATIVE WITH SUPPORT FOR ALAMEDA COUNTY COMMUNITY FOOD BANK
Image File
Original HTML

The investments will support medically tailored meals, culturally congruent resources, family nutrition programs, and other community-based solutions that connect healthcare and nutrition to improve health outcomes and advance equitable access to care. This initiative reflects the nonprofit health plan's commitment to addressing the social drivers of health, combating chronic disease, improving access to nutritious food, and advancing long-term healthcare affordability.

As the first investment under Blue Shield's new statewide Food as Health initiative, Blue Shield and Alameda County Community Food Bank (ACCFB) today announced a $300,000 multi-year investment to expand the food bank's Food as Medicine program, which provides home-delivered, medically supportive food and nutrition education to eligible Medi-Cal members managing chronic conditions.

Blue Shield is the program's first and largest corporate sponsor investment, helping Alameda County Community Food Bank's pioneering Food as Medicine program to serve more people and strengthen the infrastructure, data collection, and evaluation needed to sustain and expand the program.

"Nutritious food is one of the foundations of good health," said Mike Stuart, president and CEO of Blue Shield of California. "As a nonprofit health plan, we have an important role to play in helping people live healthier lives. Access to healthy food can improve health outcomes, help prevent and manage chronic conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, and hypertension, and support more affordable healthcare over the long term. We're proud to partner with Alameda County Community Food Bank to help build healthier communities and healthier futures."

The announcement was made during a volunteer event at the food bank's Oakland facility, where Blue Shield employees assembled Food as Medicine boxes and welcome kits for program participants. Leaders from both organizations, community stakeholders, and participants gathered to celebrate the program's impact and the role of nutrition in improving health outcomes.

Food as Medicine participants receive 12 weeks of home-delivered, medically supportive food, including fresh produce, proteins, healthy pantry staples, and nutrition education. Developed from a successful diabetes prevention pilot, the program expanded to support people with chronic conditions and became the first food bank in California to leverage funding from California Advancing and Innovating Medi‑Cal (CalAIM) to provide medically supportive food to eligible Medi-Cal members. Since 2024, the program has grown from an initial cohort of 20 participants to serving more than 400 people annually, reflecting growing demand for nutrition-based approaches that complement traditional medical care.

"Serving as a food justice organization means pushing the boundaries of what it means to be a food bank," said Regi Young, executive director of Alameda County Community Food Bank. "Food insecurity is one part of a complex picture impacting our community — and our Food as Medicine program addresses the intersection between our core work and healthcare. As our first and largest corporate sponsor for the program, Blue Shield's investment will expand our existing model and be a catalyst to share this model with other partners, potentially reshaping how chronic disease is addressed in the future."

The Alameda County Community Food Bank investment is the first of seven investments that will be awarded through Blue Shield's Food as Health initiative. Additional investments supporting food-security organizations across California will be announced in the coming months.

American Infrastructure Alliance Launches First Nationwide Partnership Between Labor &amp; Business to Advance Responsible Data Center Infrastructure Growth
Image File
Original HTML

Coalition will advocate for common-sense guardrails that protect water resources, hold down energy costs, and ensure communities share in the benefits of responsible development

WASHINGTON, Sept. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The American Infrastructure Alliance (AIA) today launched the first nationwide coalition of labor and business focused on establishing responsible, enforceable guardrails for data center development at the state and local level.

AIA's inaugural members include The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW), The International Association of Iron Workers, The United Association of Union Plumbers and Pipefitters (UA), The International Association of Sheet Metal, Air, Rail and Transportation Workers (SMART), The International Association of Heat and Frost Insulators and Allied Workers (HFIAW), the Ohio State Building & Construction Trades Council, ACT Ohio, QTS, SoftBank, SB Energy, OpenAI, Blackstone, CoreWeave, Prologis, Skybox, Rowan, American Real Estate Partners (AREP) and its vertically integrated data center platform, PowerHouse Data Centers, Related Digital, and Digital Realty.

AIA's goal is to support and shape coordination between industry, labor, local communities, and elected officials to advance the long-term investment that data centers bring to communities and regions across the country. While AIA is not focused on the upcoming election, the coalition's work will begin ahead of and continue through the 2027 state legislative sessions, establishing approaches that can carry this work forward for years to come.

This begins by developing common-sense, locally-grounded standards, not by implementing a one-size-fits-all template. AIA will support the ongoing discussions that policymakers, local leaders, and communities are having in key states to build clear frameworks for data center growth that protect natural resources, enforce accountability, create high-wage local jobs, strengthen our economy, and deliver durable benefits for homeowners, school districts, local businesses, and more.

"Our members are proud to lead the way in modernizing our energy infrastructure and strengthening our economic and energy security for decades to come. Blanket bans on necessary infrastructure projects would set back our economy and threaten good middle-class jobs. The IBEW is committed to responsible development that benefits workers, communities, and our nation," said Kenneth Cooper, IBEW International President.

"At a time when much of America's traditional manufacturing base is under pressure, data center development represents a critical opportunity for the U.S. to lead by building, investing, and creating skilled, high-paying jobs here at home. American workers and communities should have a seat at the table as this critical infrastructure is built," said Michael Coleman, General President of SMART. "We're proud to be part of AIA's efforts to support growth that delivers real benefits, creates sustained opportunity, and holds companies accountable to workers and communities."

"For more than 137 years, the men and women of the United Association have protected our most precious resource: water. And since the invention of the Internet, UA members have built, maintained, and powered the data centers that enable daily life as we know it. As the future of data center construction enters a new chapter, we cannot settle for anything less than the highest standards of quality and safety," said Mark McManus, General President of the United Association. "Our gold-standard training and registered apprenticeship programs mean our members are the best trained and most highly skilled craftspeople in the industry. We are proud to join this coalition to chart a clear path forward, so that United Association members can continue to protect the health of the nation."

"Responsible growth requires clear expectations for everyone involved," said Tag Greason, Co-CEO of QTS. "Communities should have confidence that new development will be accompanied by transparent commitments regarding resource use, infrastructure investment, economic opportunity, and community benefits. In the coming weeks, AIA will release a set of principles that can serve as a practical starting point for policymakers, industry leaders, workers, and local stakeholders in the places that we call home."

AIA's approach is grounded in its own polling across key states, which shows support for data center development shifting from deep skepticism to clear majority support, once enforceable guardrails are proposed and detailed. Informed by this research, AIA will support state policies and standards that:

- Protect water and local resources. Development should include transparent, binding commitments to water stewardship and infrastructure.

- Require projects to pay their own way. Data center developers and operators should pay for the energy and infrastructure needed, protecting households, ratepayers, and local communities from added costs.

- Create good jobs and long-term workforce opportunities. Development should support workers and skilled trades for years to come.

- Deliver visible local benefits. Projects should strengthen schools, roads, community infrastructure, and local institutions.

- Ensure operators are accountable. Communities need clear, binding standards and oversight.

AIA's key operating states currently include Texas, Georgia, Ohio, Iowa, Pennsylvania, Indiana, and South Carolina. Efforts in these states will be led by local initiatives with potential for further state expansion over time.

About the American Infrastructure Alliance

The American Infrastructure Alliance is a labor-business coalition advocating for responsible development of core infrastructure that strengthens our economy, creates good jobs, and puts communities first. We support clear state-set guardrails for data centers to ensure that facilities operate responsibly and transparently, and that communities still benefit from these investments. AIA works with Democrats and Republicans alike to build guardrails that allow responsible growth while protecting communities.

JAAM AUTOMATION LAUNCHES NEW AI PLATFORM TO BRING PEOPLE, SYSTEMS AND AI TOGETHER TO MANAGE COMPLEX BUSINESS PROCESSES

JAAM AUTOMATION LAUNCHES NEW AI PLATFORM TO BRING PEOPLE, SYSTEMS AND AI TOGETHER TO MANAGE COMPLEX BUSINESS PROCESSES

- M. by jaam brings Agentic Work Management to existing business processes, helping organisations understand how work gets done and gradually give AI more responsibility

- Launch comes as 88%[1] of organisations use AI, but only 7% have fully scaled it, highlighting the challenge of moving from AI adoption to business-wide impact

LONDON, Sept. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- jaam automation has today launched M. by jaam, a new AI platform that brings people, systems and AI together, helping businesses understand how work gets done and gradually give AI more responsibility.

Business processes rarely run through a single system or team. Work, knowledge and decisions are spread across people, applications and different stages of a process, making it difficult for AI agents to understand what needs to happen next. As businesses move from experimenting with AI to asking it to take on real work, connecting AI to the wider business context is becoming critical.

M. by jaam coordinates work across people, systems and AI agents, giving organisations the visibility and control to introduce AI at their own pace. With 88%[2] of organisations now using AI but only 7% having fully scaled it, the challenge is shifting from adoption to making AI work effectively across the business. McKinsey found that while 80% of employees say AI has improved their individual productivity, only 37% of organisations report a positive impact on EBIT.

M by Jaam's Context Engine

At the heart of M. is its Context Engine, which brings together information about the organisation, its knowledge and the work happening now and over time. This helps M. understand how work moves through the business and what needs to happen next, giving AI the context it needs to work within existing processes. As work happens, M. can learn from decisions, outcomes and patterns to improve future work and automation.

M. can use its own AI agents, as well as agents that a business has already built, allowing organisations to build on existing AI investments rather than start again.

Andrew Murphy, Chief Strategy Officer and Co-Founder at jaam automation said, "Many businesses have adopted AI incredibly quickly but are struggling to make it work across the business. Every organisation has its own processes, systems, people and ways of doing things. If we're going to ask AI to take on more of that work, it needs to understand how the business actually works."

He continued: "Business context is a bottleneck in AI adoption, and that's the thinking behind M. by jaam. Businesses can build that understanding through the work they're already doing, then introduce AI where it makes sense and give it more responsibility as confidence grows."

Built around the technology businesses already have

M. is designed to work with the technology businesses already use, including Microsoft Azure AI, Copilot and Power Platform, as well as other business systems, the in-built agents within M. and custom-built applications. With the number of active Microsoft 365 agents growing 15x in a year[3], M. gives organisations a way to bring together the AI capabilities they already have alongside people, systems and business processes. Businesses can also bring their own AI agents into M., allowing them to build on existing investments rather than start again

Lucy Bourne, Co-Founder at Oaka Studio (a specialist Microsoft partner growth and strategy consultancy) said "AI is changing how organisations work, however successful adoption is about more than introducing new technology. It's about bringing AI, people and existing systems together in a way that is practical, secure and governed. M. by Jaam provides a way to introduce AI progressively while maintaining visibility and control. Its alignment with the Microsoft ecosystem and ability to work with Microsoft Partners also provides a practical route for organisations already invested in Microsoft technologies to explore what agentic work can look like in practice."

M. helps businesses move towards more automation, at their own pace

M. has been created to let organisations start with the technology and processes they already have, then introduce AI assistance, automate parts of the work and gradually increase the amount that AI can handle.

M. takes organisations through five stages:

- Analyse – Understand requirements, information, knowledge and processes.

- Build – Turn that understanding into the structures and work needed.

- Work – Support live work with the right context and information.

- Intelligence – Monitor progress, spot risks and flag where action is needed.

- Optimisation – Identify where AI, agents and automation can improve the process.

The launch comes as businesses face a growing challenge in coordinating AI agents alongside people and existing technology. Gartner identified "Universal Orchestration" as an emerging enterprise challenge in February 2026, as organisations look to coordinate AI agents, bots and people across different systems and vendors.

M. sits within this wider shift towards Agentic Work Management, helping businesses coordinate work across people, systems and AI while building the context needed to introduce greater automation

About jaam automation

jaam automation helps organisations automate complex business processes, combining people, systems and AI to make work more efficient, resilient and scalable. Building on decades of experience in business process automation, jaam applies AI and Agentic AI to help organisations automate more complex work while maintaining the control and oversight they need.

About M. by jaam

M. by jaam is an Agentic Work Management platform from jaam automation that orchestrates work across people, AI agents and business systems. Its Context Engine brings together organisational knowledge, business processes, live work and historical data, giving people and AI the context they need to work effectively.

M. enables organisations to introduce AI progressively, deciding where people remain involved and where AI can take on greater responsibility. Its goal is to help businesses automate more routine work while enabling people to focus on judgement, creativity and direction.

AZP Insurance Specialists Certifies Gateless Smart Underwrite® Under New AI and Insurance-Backed Risk Framework
Original HTML

AZP Insurance Specialists Certifies Gateless Smart Underwrite® Under New AI and Insurance-Backed Risk Framework

Decades of mortgage-risk and claims experience lay the foundation for a framework designed to drive AI trust, adoption and insurable risk management.

PHOENIX, Sept. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AZP Insurance Specialists ("AZP"), a mortgage-risk insurance and technology-certification specialist, today announced the Platinum certification of Gateless Smart Underwrite®, an AI-driven mortgage underwriting solution, under AZP's AI Mortgage Technology Certification framework.

AZP AI Mortgage Technology Certification

The certification framework was developed from decades of actual mortgage representation-and-warranty risk, underwriting and claims experience. It is designed to independently evaluate artificial intelligence and advanced technology providers serving mortgage manufacturing and, for qualifying technologies and transactions, provide a pathway to separately underwritten insurance-backed risk protection for defined representation-and-warranty exposures, including covered repurchase losses.

AZP and its predecessor organizations have placed representation-and-warranty insurance on more than 5 million mortgage loans representing more than $2 trillion in mortgage principal. Insurance-backed protection is provided through a Lloyd's of London policy underwritten by Munich Re, subject to applicable underwriting requirements and policy terms, conditions, limits and exclusions.

"There will be no shortage of organizations willing to issue an AI certification badge. Our approach begins somewhere very different—with decades of actual mortgage risk and claims experience. We know what good systems look like, what creates uninsurable risk and what happens when something goes wrong."

— Arthur J. Prieston, Esq., CMB, Chairman, AZP Insurance Specialists

Gateless Becomes First Platinum-Certified Technology Provider

Gateless is the first technology provider certified under the AZP framework and has achieved Platinum, the highest of four certification levels. The designation reflects Gateless' demonstrated governance, controls, auditability, operational maturity and risk-management infrastructure, together with the performance of more than 230,000 loans manufactured and sold by lenders using Smart Underwrite® without a single claim.

"From the beginning, we've believed AI underwriting had to earn the confidence of lenders through measurable performance, strong controls and transparency. AZP's independent certification, together with the availability of separately underwritten insurance-backed protection for qualifying clients and transactions, provides another level of validation as Smart Underwrite® continues to be deployed across the industry."

— Rick Lang, President, Gateless

AI Adoption and Lender Confidence

As artificial intelligence becomes more deeply integrated into mortgage underwriting and loan manufacturing, lenders and institutional mortgage participants are increasingly focused not only on what technology can do, but also on the governance, controls, accountability and financial risk surrounding its use.

"Technology has to deliver real results—faster underwriting, greater accuracy and more efficient operations—while keeping lenders in control. Gateless understands what it takes to make automation work in the mortgage business. Independent certification adds confidence that the technology is backed by the discipline and accountability lenders need to adopt it at scale."

— Phil Shoemaker, Chief Executive Officer, The Loan Store

TYGO Investor Alert: Shareholder Rights Law Firm Robbins LLP Reminds Investors of the Class Action Lawsuit Against Tigo Energy
Image File
Original HTML

SAN DIEGO, Sept. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Shareholder rights law firm Robbins LLP reminds investors that a class action was filed on behalf of persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Tigo Energy (NASDAQ: TYGO) securities between February 24, 2026 and August 4, 2026, inclusive (the "Class Period"). Tigo provides solar and energy storage solutions, including module level power electronics ("MLPE") designed to maximize the energy output of individual solar modules.

The complaint alleges that Tigo misled investors regarding the viability of the Company's EG4 partnership.

Investors who suffered significant losses during the Class Period may be eligible to participate in the lawsuit and should contact Robbins LLP.

Why Was Tigo Sued?

According to the complaint, on August 25, 2025, Tigo announced a manufacturing and marketing partnership with EG4 Electronics ("EG4"), a company that manufactures solar energy products. Per Tigo's press release, the partnership was intended to "produce Tigo optimized inverters and Module Level Power Electronics (MLPE) together with EG4 solar inverters."

On May 5, 2026, Tigo issued its first-quarter 2026 financial results projecting revenue for FY 2026 of $130-135 million, and projected revenue of $30–$32 million for Q2 2026 specifically.

Plaintiff alleges that these statements were materially false and/or misleading at the time they were made because: (1) the projections were based on the launch of the EG4 partnership and attendant revenue; (2) however, the EG4 partnership would not provide material revenue until

Q4 2026 at the earliest; and (3) therefore, there was no basis for the projections.

Why did Tigo Stock Drop?

The complaint alleges that on August 4, 2026, Tiga reported its 2Q 2026 financial results in a press release. The press release stated that Tigo's Q2 revenue was $25.4 million, versus the Company's prior guidance of $30–$32 million. Furthermore, the Company revised its full-year 2026 guidance downward, reducing it from $130–$135 million to $100–$110 million—a midpoint reduction of approximately 20.8%.

The release quoted defendant Tigo's CFO, who stated that "[t]he revision to our full-year 2026 outlook reflects our U.S. optimized inverter partner's shift of its go-to-market launch to the fourth quarter, the slower ramp of our new GO Battery, and a more gradual recovery in Europe." The "optimized inverter partner" referenced in the above quote is EG4. On this news, Tigo's stock price fell from $2.04 on August 4 to $1.29 per share on August 5, a drop of approximately 37%.

Who May Be Eligible to Participate in the Tigo Class Action?

The lawsuit seeks to represent investors who purchased Tigo securities between February 24, 2026 and August 4, 2026. Investors who suffered losses during that period may have legal rights under the federal securities laws.

What Is a Lead Plaintiff?

The lead plaintiff is a court-appointed investor who represents the interests of all class members throughout the litigation. Stockholders who wish to lead the class action should contact Robbins LLP for information.

Serving as lead plaintiff is not required to share in any potential recovery. Investors who do not seek appointment may remain absent class members if the case proceeds and later resolves successfully.

Does It Cost Anything to Participate?

No. Robbins LLP represents investors on a contingency fee basis.

Honest Lasers Announces Global Launch of the Honest Pro

Honest Lasers Announces Global Launch of the Honest Pro

The Swiss-made triple-wavelength diode laser combines European components with integrated contact cooling for aesthetic and medical clinics.

ROGGWIL, Switzerland, Sept. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Honest Lasers announces the global launch of the Honest Pro. The new clinical-grade diode laser system is manufactured in Switzerland with European components and combines three wavelengths within one platform. Honest Pro was developed for aesthetic and medical clinics that need consistent energy delivery, long-term equipment stability, and technology built for regular clinical use.

The launch expands Honest Lasers' work in professional diode laser manufacturing as the company marks nearly a decade in the sector. Its engineering approach focuses on system performance across repeated treatments, including component durability and consistent energy output.

Three Wavelengths Operate in One System

Honest Pro uses a triple-wavelength architecture combining 755, 808, and 1064 nm wavelengths. Each wavelength interacts with melanin and reaches different depths, allowing practitioners to treat a range of hair and skin characteristics in a single system.

The architecture supports a maximum pulse rate of 10 Hz. Honest Lasers designed the system around stable fluence delivery during repeated use, an area the manufacturer identifies as important when clinics evaluate equipment beyond peak specifications.

For clinic owners, those engineering details can affect how a laser fits into a treatment schedule. Equipment used throughout a workday must operate predictably across successive appointments, placing demands on the complete system as well as its individual specifications.

Cooling Accompanies Energy Delivery

Temperature management is another component of the Honest Pro design. An integrated contact cooling system reaches temperatures as low as -5°C to help protect the epidermis during treatment.

Combining cooling with the three wavelengths allows the system to manage energy delivery while addressing the skin surface. Honest Lasers developed the platform for use across all skin types, with the wavelength configuration balancing melanin absorption and controlled penetration depth.

The handpiece is rated for more than 50 million shots. That lifespan reflects the company's focus on equipment designed for sustained professional use, where component longevity can factor into purchasing and operational decisions.

Swiss Engineering Shapes the Launch

Honest Lasers manufactures the Honest Pro in Switzerland using European-origin components. The company says this manufacturing approach reflects its emphasis on precision, energy stability, and system reliability throughout the equipment's working life.

The global launch also establishes the direction Honest Lasers plans to pursue as it expands its presence among aesthetic practitioners, dermatologists, and medical clinics. Future development will continue focusing on diode laser engineering and equipment designed for consistent use in professional settings.

The launch brings that engineering approach to clinics worldwide as Honest Lasers expands access to its Swiss-manufactured system. The company plans to continue developing diode laser technology around the demands of long-term professional use.

About Honest Lasers: Honest Lasers is a Swiss manufacturer of professional diode laser systems for aesthetic and medical clinics. The company develops triple-wavelength technology using European components, with an engineering focus on energy stability, cooling, component durability, and predictable operation.

Its Honest Pro system combines 755, 808, and 1064 nm wavelengths with integrated contact cooling and a handpiece rated for more than 50 million shots.

Rocket Mortgage Becomes First Home Lender to Use VantageScore as its Preferred Scoring Model on All Eligible Loans
Image File
Original HTML

Announcement follows testing showing more clients meet credit requirements and benefit from lower costs using VantageScore 4.0

DETROIT, Sept. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Rocket Mortgage, part of Rocket Companies (NYSE: RKT), today announced it will become the first mortgage lender to use VantageScore 4.0 as its preferred credit scoring model for all eligible loans. After roughly four months of testing, the company found that VantageScore helped more clients qualify and move forward in the mortgage process, while also reducing credit scoring costs.

During the fourth quarter of 2026, the company will default to VantageScore 4.0 for mortgages that will be delivered to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, VA home loans and any other eligible mortgages.

"The mortgage industry has relied on one credit scoring model for decades. Competition is healthy, especially when it can lower costs and expand responsible access to homeownership. We did the work, compared the models and chose the one that helped more qualified clients," said Jay Bray, CEO of Rocket Mortgage. "With our mission to 'help everyone home' this decision only made sense. We thank Director Pulte for his leadership in encouraging multiple credit scoring models that ultimately benefit the American homebuyer."

With innovation and competition, Rocket Mortgage is seeing there are improved ways to help people buy and refinance homes. So far this year, the company obtained 1.4 million credit reports using both VantageScore and FICO. Rocket Mortgage did an extensive study that helped the company determine VantageScore 4.0 opens access to some clients who wouldn't be served otherwise, and many are able to secure a mortgage on better pricing terms. For those who saved money with VantageScore 4.0, the savings was an average of $1,600 at closing. FHFA and Director Pulte are encouraging competition and innovation in pilot programs. Rocket Mortgage is now ready to shift credit scores to the latest technology and will continue to evaluate new options as they become available.

VantageScore 4.0 evaluates how a person's credit behavior changes over time, including patterns in balances and payments. The model incorporates rent and utility payment information when it is included in a consumer's credit file, enabling it to generate scores for some consumers whose limited credit histories leave them without a score under conventional models, for aspiring homeowners, that additional financial history gives lenders more information to assess their creditworthiness.

The transition will apply to all Rocket Mortgage direct-to-consumer loan products that currently allow VantageScore use. For now, mortgages for investment properties and second homes, home equity loans, FHA loans, jumbo loans and some other products will still use FICO scores. Rocket Pro, the division of Rocket Mortgage that provides home loans through mortgage broker partners, will provide both VantageScore and FICO to mortgage brokers, as part of its commitment to broker optionality. In addition to credit, mortgage approval also depends on income, debt, assets, property and other loan requirements.
