FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Oct. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — HEX, the next-generation protective gear line from McDavid, today announced the launch of its most advanced performance apparel collection yet, engineered with cutting-edge design to deliver lightweight, flexible, and breathable protection for athletes who compete at the highest level. NBA superstar Kyrie Irving will play a leading role in showcasing the new products, bringing his experience and passion for performance to the forefront as HEX redefines what modern protective gear can deliver.

Irving has worn HEX products throughout his NBA career and continues to embody the fearless, high-intensity play style that HEX was built for. His influence and inspiration have been key to advancing the new HEX launch, helping shape gear that gives athletes the confidence to push harder, play tougher, and perform at their peak.

“HEX gives me peace of mind on the court.

Kyrie embodies the toughness, creativity, and intensity that HEX represents.”

Carbyne Receives Frost & Sullivan’s 2025 North America Product Leadership Recognition for Excellence in Emergency Cloud Call Handling

Recognition underscores Carbyne’s fully cloud-native architecture and market-leading capabilities in modernizing emergency cloud call handling technologies

SAN ANTONIO, Oct. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Frost & Sullivan is pleased to announce that Carbyne has received the 2025 North America Product Leadership Recognition in the emergency cloud call handling industry for its outstanding achievements in advancing next-generation emergency communication technologies. This recognition highlights Carbyne’s consistent leadership in delivering cloud-native, mission-critical solutions that empower emergency response teams with the clarity, coordination, and confidence to act and drive measurable operational efficiency when every second counts.

Frost & Sullivan evaluates companies through a rigorous benchmarking process across two core dimensions: strategy effectiveness and strategy execution. Carbyne excels in both, demonstrating its ability to align strategic initiatives with the growing demand for real-time, cloud-first, AI-powered public safety communication platforms.

“Carbyne’s architecture is cloud native. Unlike competitors who adopt a hybrid approach, retaining core call control and legacy call-taking systems on-premise while layering cloud-based applications on top, Carbyne operates entirely in the cloud,” said Brent Iadarola, Vice President of Frost & Sullivan. “This design enables seamless integration, scalability, and real-time AI capabilities without the constraints of legacy infrastructure.”

Guided by a long-term growth strategy anchored in product leadership, Carbyne has consistently demonstrated its ability to adapt and lead in modernizing the evolving emergency communications landscape with resilient performance. The company’s strategic investments in cloud-based platforms and advanced AI-driven automation have enabled it to scale effectively across North America and globally, serving mid-to-large Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) that are modernizing emergency response,  while minimizing operational disruptions.

Innovation remains central to Carbyne’s approach. Built on the Carbyne platform, its flagship APEX™ call handling system consolidates real-time voice, video, chat, and device-based location into a single, unified interface, enhancing efficiency for emergency call centers and first responders. Advanced features, including patented live video integration, AI-powered translation, and automated dispatch protocol assistance, further streamline call handling and improve response outcomes.

“Innovation in public safety isn’t about keeping up – it’s about staying ahead,” said Amir Elichai, CEO and co-founder of Carbyne. “This recognition from Frost & Sullivan reflects our team’s commitment to building a more connected, intelligent, and resilient emergency communications ecosystem – one that ensures every community gets the fast, trusted response it deserves.”

Carbyne’s unwavering commitment to operational excellence and customer success has further strengthened its market position. By eliminating the inefficiencies of legacy multi-platform systems, the company delivers faster dispatch times, improved situational awareness, and greater coordination across emergency response agencies. Its scalable cloud-native architecture provides flexibility, cost efficiency, and resilience for public safety organizations navigating the demands of a rapidly changing environment.

Frost & Sullivan commends Carbyne for setting a high standard in innovation, execution, and market responsiveness. The company’s vision, AI-driven innovation pipeline, and customer-first culture are shaping the future of emergency cloud call handling and driving tangible results at scale.

Each year, Frost & Sullivan presents the Product Leadership Recognition to a company that demonstrates outstanding strategy development and implementation, resulting in measurable improvements in market share, customer satisfaction, and competitive positioning. The recognition highlights forward-thinking organizations that are reshaping their industries through innovation and growth excellence.

Frost & Sullivan Best Practices Recognition

Frost & Sullivan’s Best Practices Recognitions honor companies across regional and global markets that exhibit exceptional achievement and consistent excellence in areas such as leadership, technological innovation, customer experience, and strategic product development. Each recognition is the result of a rigorous analytical process in which Frost & Sullivan industry experts benchmark performance through comprehensive interviews, deep-dive analysis, and extensive secondary research. The goal is to identify true best-in-class organizations that are driving transformative growth and setting new industry standards. Contact us: Start the discussion.

bunq Accelerates Global Expansion with Premium Rewards Proposition Powered by Ascenda

Neobank elevates customer value and deepens engagement through Ascenda’s global rewards network

NEW YORK, Oct. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Ascenda, the loyalty company that powers growth for the world’s leading financial institutions, today announced its new partnership with bunq, Europe’s second-largest neobank. The collaboration elevates bunq’s loyalty program, unlocking superior rewards that power its users’ international lifestyle.

bunq’s skyrocketing trajectory – marked by its recent 20 million user milestone and plans for US expansion – is underpinned by a relentless user focus. As “the first bank people love to use,” bunq’s success is built on making life easy by using tech to remove the hassle of money admin. The new partnership with Ascenda is marked by a shared vision for superior user experiences and technology-driven innovation.

Enabled by Ascenda’s unrivaled loyalty ecosystem, bunq users across Germany, France, Spain, Ireland, and the Netherlands can now use their points to access a new range of aspirational rewards, such as airline miles. The collaboration showcases how innovative financial institutions are embedding premium, high-value rewards directly into their core products. The expanded loyalty proposition strengthens bunq’s appeal to new and existing customers, fueling customer acquisition and increasing stickiness.

“We’re excited to bring one of our most-requested features to users: earning airline miles, just by using their bunq card. At bunq, we’re all about making life easy. Our partnership with Ascenda helps us do exactly that: helping our users earn travel rewards from everyday spending to support their borderless lifestyle,” said Tom Bilske, Head of New Products.

“Loyalty is no longer a simple add-on to financial products – it’s a core engine for revenue and growth,” said Josh Berwitz, Chief Commercial Officer of Ascenda. “This new partnership demonstrates how a disruptive leader can leverage differentiated customer value to win in the market. bunq is making everyday banking truly rewarding and we’re thrilled to power their success.”

About bunq

Founded in 2012 by serial entrepreneur Ali Niknam, bunq has brought lasting change to the European banking industry. By having its users at the heart of the business and building a product rooted in their wants and needs, bunq quickly scaled to become the second-largest neobank in the EU. Serving those with an international lifestyle across the European Economic Area, bunq makes life easy for location-independent people and businesses, starting from the way they manage money: how they spend, save, budget, and invest.

Pioneering many things considered impossible, bunq was the first bank to get a European banking permit in over 35 years, raised the largest series A round ever secured by a European fintech (€193 million), and was the first EU neobank to achieve structural profitability at the end of 2022. On its mission to build the first global neobank for digital nomads, in April 2025, bunq announced it’s fast-tracking its entry in the US by applying for a broker-dealer license and planning to reapply for the full banking license later the same year.

About Ascenda
