BOSTON, Sept. 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — TraceLink, the largest end-to-end digital network platform for intelligent orchestration of the supply chain, today announced powerful new capabilities in its Orchestration Platform for Universal Solutions (OPUS) designed to unlock unprecedented productivity. These enhancements enable finance, commercial, and IT teams to radically improve agility and productivity while reducing costs through agentic orchestration of their end-to-end supply chain.

The new capabilities, introduced across OPUS, Multienterprise Information Network Tower (MINT), Process Orchestration for Empowered Teams (POET), and Serialized Product Intelligence (SPI), deliver focused innovations tailored to specific operational efficiency challenges, yet are architected to operate as a unified platform, amplifying their impact on supply chain performance when used together.

• OPUS: Helps business users design and deploy no-code supply chain solutions that make multienterprise work easier—standardizing processes, automating everyday tasks, and improving overall efficiency.
• MINT: Quickly links a company with all of its trading partners through pre-integrated network links so they can share transactional process data to infuse shared business processes with real-time intelligence.
• POET: Gives multienterprise teams a scalable capability to manage shared peer-to-peer collaboration processes and solve problems quickly with full audit control and managed user rights—no matter where they sit in their organizations.
• SPI: Provides accurate, real-time visibility into serialized product movements so companies can reconcile inventory faster and turn compliance requirements into a competitive business advantage.

While each solution delivers meaningful improvements on its own, their true power emerges when orchestrated together—linking real-time partner data (MINT), collaborative task execution (POET), and product movement intelligence (SPI) within the OPUS environment to automate end-to-end workflows, resolve issues faster, and create enterprise-wide productivity gains.

For example:

• Inventory Reconciliation and Disruption Recovery: A manufacturer detects an unexpected stock variance in SPI, triggers a POET task that assigns corrective actions across internal teams and CMOs, and uses real-time partner data from MINT to reconcile inventory within hours—not weeks—preventing stockouts and lost sales.
• Order-to-Cash Acceleration: Commercial teams use OPUS Solution Environment to automate order entry, MINT to instantly exchange order confirmations and invoices with partners, and POET to route exceptions to the right teams for resolution—cutting order cycle time in half and improving cash flow.
• Regulatory Audit Readiness: SPI provides full product movement history, while POET collects supporting documentation from external partners via email-triggered workflows, and MINT ensures all records are synchronized—making audits faster and reducing compliance risk.

Together, these orchestrated capabilities form a linked layer that helps automate processes, resolve issues faster, and strengthen collaboration, internally and with upstream and downstream partners—driving measurable gains in efficiency, resilience, and customer service.

What Supply Chain Leaders Are Saying
At TraceLink’s FutureLink 2025 conference in Boston, Swami Iyer, CEO of Aurobindo USA, one of the world’s largest generic pharmaceutical manufacturers, said during his keynote:

“We were looking for a digital solution [OPUS] to unify our external and internal data to create visibility on a comprehensive basis for the entire supply chain. We found TraceLink to be a great partner with an extremely powerful platform, having huge potential to transform our processes to achieve a unified supply chain system.”

“Supply chains today are under constant pressure from disruptions, regulatory demands, and the complexity of working with many partners—in many cases around the world. OPUS and its solutions are designed to give companies a smarter way to manage that complexity by linking data, automating routine tasks, and surfacing issues before they become costly problems. The result is rapid decision-making, fewer disruptions, and a supply chain that’s built to adapt—and that’s the future we’re helping our customers achieve,” said Shabbir Dahod, President and CEO of TraceLink.

Unleashing Productivity Through a No-Code Agentic Orchestration Platform
Rising demands for supply chains to be more agile, intelligent, and collaborative are still undermined by fragmented systems and manual processes that slow productivity. TraceLink addresses these challenges with its B2N Integrate-Once™ model, enabling companies of any size to operate on a shared digital network. Building on this foundation, the latest platform enhancements deliver targeted innovations designed to streamline workflows, reduce inefficiencies, and accelerate decisions—working in unison across the OPUS platform to amplify enterprise-wide productivity and lay the basis for forthcoming advancements in agentic orchestration.

Orchestration Platform for Universal Solutions (OPUS)

• Improved OPUS Solution Environment (OSE) Authoring and Usability: Accelerates the speed and ease for business users to design and deploy automated workflows, such as order processing, inventory reconciliation, and partner data exchanges. These improvements shorten development cycles and allow teams to adapt processes more quickly without heavy IT involvement—boosting overall productivity.
• Increased Message Processing Throughput: Optimizes the speed and scalability of transaction handling within the OPUS platform, enabling companies to process larger volumes of multienterprise messages and data exchanges faster and more reliably—without requiring additional internal resources.

Multienterprise Information Network Tower (MINT)

• Enhanced Business Process Support: Expanded support with 50 new transaction types that positively influence 15 key business processes across commerce, logistics, and manufacturing. These additions remove manual data entry, reduce errors, and give decision-makers access to clean, reliable data.
• Accelerated Insights: Access 20+ ready-to-use end-to-end reports and dashboards covering order-to-cash, procure-to-pay, and inventory management—delivering fast, actionable insights without the requirement to build them in third-party business intelligence tools.
• New Download and Email Enhancements: Boosts flexibility by letting users download exchanged files directly from the UI and send transactions as email attachments—removing friction in day-to-day collaboration. This ensures partners can access critical documents promptly, streamline exception handling, and reduce delays in decision-making and issue resolution.

Process Orchestration for Empowered Teams (POET)

• Create/Update via Email Support: Let teams start, update, and track work items directly from email, making exception handling easier and helping issues get resolved faster.

Serialized Product Intelligence (SPI)

• Enhanced Lot and Serialized Product Monitoring: Gives teams complete visibility into product events and inventory status, enabling teams to proactively detect anomalies and discrepancies in real time—accelerating issue resolution and reducing work in keeping accurate inventory counts.

Challenge to take place across L.A. in anticipation of International Vodka Day

• The playful initiative driven by Smirnoff and global pop sensation Troye Sivan has been created to inspire people to connect and celebrate their ultimate IRL hangs with friends.
• This moment marks the next installment of the Chief Vibes OFFicer (CVO) story – picking up with Troye, who was appointed CVO in last November, to take viewers behind the scenes with a ‘Day in the life’ at Vibes HQ
• Legally we have to say that ‘Chief Vibes OFFicer’ is not a real title, and Vibes HQ is not a real place of work – both are used solely for promotional purposes (please do not tell Troye…)

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Smirnoff, the world’s no.1 vodka brand^[1], is today launching a playful briefcase drop in partnership with global pop sensation Troye Sivan, bringing people together for the ultimate IRL hang with their friends this International Vodka Day (October 4^th). The announcement comes as Troye Sivan gives fans a glimpse into a day in the life of a Chief Vibes OFFicer at Smirnoff with a tongue-in-cheek tour of Smirnoff Vibes HQ.  

Global pop sensation, Troye Sivan, gives fans a tour of Smirnoff Vibes HQ

From URL to IRL, the briefcase drop will take place in Los Angeles, Troye’s hometown when in the US, on Oct 2nd, encouraging everyone to take their plans out of the group chat to meet IRL for the ultimate group hang (21+). Dropped in iconic spots across LA, fans (21+) will piece together clues shared from Troye and Smirnoff to find the briefcases – and, in the spirit of bringing people together, to find them they’ll need a clue and to claim the prize they’ll need their crew.** Inside, the potential winners will find a personalized video from Troye and can claim their prize including a CVO-mandated weekend in Palm Springs – think sunshine, lo-fi chill and the highest of vibes.

Troye was appointed as Smirnoff’s Chief Vibes OFFicer (CVO) in November 2024, kicking off an exciting multi-year partnership with one clear aim – to get people out, get people together and Go OFF.

With an annual performance review on the horizon, it feels safe to say that Troye has delivered some 10/10 results as CVO – a headline tour across Australia with Smirnoff Club Rush afterparties in Melbourne and Sydney, shareable Out Of Office content ahead of the festive holidays, a Vibe Check with fans ahead of his headline slot at World Pride Music Festival in D.C in June and some iconic Friday work memos for those wanting to emulate his CVO energy over the last few weeks.

The next installment of the CVO story introduces viewers to Vibes HQ, an idyllic coastal compound in the sun, the perfect setting for the meticulous monitoring of vibes, mood measurement and other very important research. Equipped with a temp-controlled Smirnoff ICE room, a dimly lit break-out room and open-air team briefings – we pick up with Troye as he is busy ‘working’, before he’s called to check on the Smirnoff ICE in storage (fear not… it’s chill) and kick off a very professional productivity check-in with his office sirens.

Stephanie Jacoby, SVP Global Vodkas, said:

“Troye has done a fantastic job as our CVO over the past year and is really ramping up his action plan as we get closer to his annual performance review. We’re thrilled to be joining forces with him this International Vodka Day to bring the vibes from Vibes HQ straight to L.A. for this playful briefcase hunt that we hope will bring people together and get the plans out of the group chat and into real life – something we all crave.”

Troye Sivan, Chief Vibes OFFicer of Smirnoff, added: 

“When I joined forces with Smirnoff last year it was to create special moments by getting people together. We’ve had such a fun (almost) year of doing just that, all around the world. This briefcase drop is a great opportunity for us to invite people in and connect with their friends, bringing them into this tongue-in-cheek world that we’ve created together – I’m excited for what’s to come!”

The briefcase drop will kick off on October 2nd with cryptic clues and hints dropped from Troye, his crew and from the @Smirnoff Instagram handle. The Vibes HQ ‘Day in the life’ video is now live and will continue to show up alongside recipe content, photography and behind the scenes clips across digital, social and OOH over the coming months in key markets such as the USA, UK, Brazil and Australia – watch this space for more updates from the Smirnoff Chief Vibes OFFicer, Troye Sivan.

DUBAI, UAE, Sept. 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has introduced 24/5 trading for selected stock contracts for difference (CFDs) on its TradFi platform, expanding market access and aligning traditional assets more closely with crypto’s always-on trading model.

The launch allows users to trade stock CFDs 24 hours a day, five days a week, uninterrupted. The first batch of 20 stock CFDs is now available under the extended trading framework. Existing positions remain unaffected, and trading as well as swap fees will continue to follow current rates.

Since its debut in May 2025, Bybit’s stock CFD offering has expanded to support more than 100 equities, spanning leading technology firms such as NVIDIA, MSTR, and META, as well as crypto-related stocks including COIN and CRCL.

To further broaden accessibility, Bybit TradFi is also waiving trading fees on stock CFDs and indices through Oct. 11, 2025. During this limited-time program, eligible users can trade a range of global indices — including CHINA50, CHINAH, HK50, HKTECH, and TWINDEX — as well as all stock CFDs such as CRCL, COIN, MSTR, BMNR, SBET, and major technology equities including NVDA, TSLA, AAPL, GOOG, and INTC, at zero transaction cost.

Previously, Bybit’s stock CFD trading followed standard U.S. market hours, limiting access to approximately 6.5 hours per day. Under those constraints, traders unable to act within the daily market window could not adjust positions or hedge risk until the next session.

By introducing 24/5 trading, Bybit reduces time-zone barriers, enables continuous risk management, and allows users worldwide to respond more effectively to market developments. The change also provides cross-asset traders with a more unified experience, bridging the gap between crypto’s 24/7 market and traditional finance products.

Key benefits of the update include:

• Always available: Stock CFDs on U.S. equities can now be traded around the clock, Monday through Friday.
• Global accessibility: Extended hours reduce time-zone limitations and open participation to a wider base of traders.
• Greater control: Users can manage positions on their own schedule, rather than being restricted to U.S. market hours.

Bybit is among the first crypto-native platforms to introduce 24/5 trading for traditional financial assets. The company has positioned the expansion as part of its broader mission to bridge digital assets and traditional finance, while redefining the future of multi-asset trading.

WARSAW, Poland, Sept. 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — For those who have never visited Warsaw—on September 18, the Polish capital presented its highlights during Warsaw Day at Expo 2025 in Osaka. The programme wouldn’t be complete without prominent Warsaw figures known the world over, as well as the city’s culinary culture.

A Japanese edition of Maria Skłodowska-Curie. Albert Einstein | Letters /1911-1932, also premiered on Warsaw Day. The book documents the long-lasting friendship of two outstanding scientists. “It is a great satisfaction for us that readers in Japan will also be able to learn more about the life and achievements of a woman scientist born in Warsaw. Readers of the special Japanese edition of ‘Letters’ were impressed by the publication’s quality and accuracy,” says Paweł Moras, Director of the Warsaw Tourism Office.

A special Warsaw menu served throughout the day, developed by Maciej Nowicki—an outstanding chef and reconstructor of historical Polish dishes—enjoyed great popularity among visitors. “We were very pleased with the huge popularity of the Polish Pavilion on Warsaw Day. It was an outstanding opportunity for us to showcase what makes the capital so unique and special—the outstanding figures associated with Warsaw, and the very best of its culinary tradition. We wanted visitors to experience the atmosphere of Warsaw with all their senses—from exceptional culinary demonstrations and tastings, through meetings with enthusiasts, to the music of Fryderyk Chopin, whose compositions are an integral part of the capital’s identity. Through this experience, our guests had the opportunity to journey to the heart of the city and get to know its history, culture and traditions in a direct and extremely engaging way – Paweł Moras comments.  

On Warsaw Day, the Polish Pavilion welcomed its millionth visitor! The young Japanese boy received a pack of Polish souvenirs and also took part in a workshop on braiding challah (braided sweet bread), which he loved.

Warsaw Day ended with an evening of Chopin’s music and a tasting of dishes inspired by 19th-century Warsaw. The City of Warsaw and the Polish Tourism Organization organised the event.

Warsaw, the capital of Poland and the hometown of Maria Skłodowska-Curie and Fryderyk Chopin, awaits guests from Japan with open arms. For more information, visit www.go2warsaw.pl/jp
