SINGAPORE, Nov. 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Located in the UK, GiftChill recently revamped its website. As an international leader in the gift card industry, GiftChill offers a unique one-stop-shop experience for customers seeking to purchase gift cards online. Customers can now use the GiftChill website to browse hundreds of featured gift cards, check product reviews, and order gift cards online.

The GiftChill website offers a simple, secure online registration process that takes most people less than 60 seconds to complete. Once the registration process is complete, account holders can place orders for gift cards with just a few clicks.

Upon completion of their online purchase, customers can expect to receive their gift card code instantly. Each gift card code is delivered to the email address the customer provided during registration. Codes are accompanied by instructions that include helpful tips about using the gift card online or in stores.

GiftChill’s updated site also plays a key role in helping customers save money when purchasing gift cards. Because GiftChill does not have to integrate with credit card companies or Paypal, GiftChill is able to minimize overhead costs. The savings are passed along to customers who are able to buy gift cards at a lower price. The new website may soon feature daily specials to enable GiftChill customers to maximize their ROI.

Customer privacy is a top priority for the GiftChill team. In contrast to other websites that require buyers to provide a large amount of detailed personal information, GiftChill’s registration process requires customers to provide the bare minimum amount of information that is required by law. Account holders can therefore complete transactions with peace of mind knowing that every effort has been made to protect their privacy.

GiftChill takes their commitment to privacy a step further by enabling customers to buy gift cards through their website using six popular cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin and USDC. This means buyers are never required to enter their credit card information when making a purchase. Additional payment options are also under consideration as the GiftChill team strives to combat any unnecessary credit card use on their website.

Providing buyers with a hassle-free purchasing experience is a primary goal for GiftChill. By keeping the registration process simple and offering attractive payment modalities, customers can enjoy a fast, seamless buying experience. At the same time, customers never have to settle for an uninspiring gift card purchase. The GiftChill site features over 200 gift card options that change every day.

To learn more about their discounted gift cards, you can contact them on Support@giftchill.co.uk. Their dedicated team of professionals is committed to providing customers with a wide variety of affordable gift card options.

Modelo, UFC, and Rebuilding Together Bring Local Gym Revitalization Efforts in Seattle

Gym refurbishments empower the Fighting Spirit at Cappy’s Boxing Gym with help from UFC fighter and Washington native Michael Chiesa

CHICAGO, Nov. 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Modelo, the beer brewed for those with The Fighting Spirit™, along with long-standing partner UFC®, the world’s premier mixed martial arts organization, and national housing nonprofit, Rebuilding Together, announced the completion of renovations to Cappy’s Boxing Gym located in the Central District of Seattle, Washington. Cappy’s Boxing Gym is the fourth and final gym that Modelo, UFC and Rebuilding Together will renovate this year as a part of their initiative to boost the Fighting Spirit across the nation at select gyms that make a positive impact in their communities.

“The work that Modelo has been able to do with UFC and Rebuilding Together revitalizing local gyms is an incredible victory for everyone involved,” said Rene Ramos, Vice President of Lifestyle and Experiential, Sponsorships for Constellation Brands. “We look forward to unveiling the next steps for this social impact program to continue our dedication to creating more unified, resilient and prosperous communities.”

UFC welterweight and Washington native, Michael Chiesa, lent a helping hand in the renovation process at Cappy’s. Chiesa won the lightweight tournament during Season 15 of The Ultimate Fighter earning a contract with the world’s premier mixed martial arts organization in 2012. Since his debut inside the Octagon, Michael has become a fan favorite, registered an 11-5 record and currently ranks No. 7 in the welterweight division.

“It is an honor to have the opportunity to be involved with revitalizing a business that is assisting athletes in my home state,” said UFC welterweight Michael Chiesa. “The work that Modelo and UFC are doing will help a new generation to embrace their Fighting Spirit and feel inspired to go out and achieve their dreams- no matter what challenges they face.”

Founded in 1999, Cappy’s Boxing Gym has been a beloved Seattle institution for decades, offering community members a safe space to train and take boxing classes while improving overall fitness. Focused on creating a positive environment where athletes of all background can grow physically and mentally, Cappy’s offers scholarships to cover membership fees and hosts free public workouts in local parks. In addition, the gym recently launched a program with a budding nonprofit organization, Minority Veterans of America, to offer special classes focused on health and wellness for veterans.

“Boxing is much more than just physical fitness,” said Cappy’s Boxing Gym Owner Mike Priebe. “When I took over Cappy’s, I made it my mission to help athletes develop skills inside the gym that can help them in real life scenarios. The work Modelo, UFC and Rebuilding Together are doing for us will help take that mission to the next level.”

As the pandemic hit the Seattle area hard and the gym was forced to close in-person classes, Cappy’s quickly adapted to offering virtual classes on a pay-what-you-can model to continue serving its members throughout lockdown. The funds provided by Modelo and UFC helped Priebe make up for income lost during the pandemic and he was able to bring in a local artist to paint murals on the gym’s walls and get new equipment including heavy bags, gloves and focus shields and mitts.

“The completion of the Seattle project marks the fourth successful gym revitalization initiative with Modelo and UFC,” said Caroline Blakely, President and CEO of Rebuilding Together. “It is incredible that we have been able to do so much good for local communities across the nation through small businesses that play a vital role in the health and overall well-being of its residents.”

This community-based initiative coincides with the extension of the ongoing partnership between Modelo and UFC that first established Modelo as the “Official Beer of UFC” in 2018.

“UFC is pleased to extend the partnership with Modelo, an amazing brand that shares our unmatched commitment to a passionate fan base,” said Paul Asencio, UFC Senior Vice President of Global Partnerships. “We are excited about the work we accomplished this year to revamp gyms and inspire athletes across the country and look forward to seeing the next generation of fighters come from these communities.”

The gym revitalization program is another proud step for Modelo in its ongoing commitment to support the Fighting Spirit in communities across the nation. Model has donated funds to help alleviate the education debt of military veterans, funded the provision of essential supplies, equipment and resources to protect healthcare workers throughout the pandemic, and supported COVID-19 relief programming and related small business loans.

Nasdaq Private Fund Manager Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Data Will be Free to Investors on February 16, 2022

Nasdaq Working with ILPA and FCLTGlobal to Ensure Data Standardization

NEW YORK, Nov. 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Nasdaq has today announced that it will collect and make its private fund manager diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) data available for investors free of charge via the Nasdaq eVestment platform in an effort to improve transparency and disclosure standardization across the industry. The data will be available starting on February 16, 2022.

Nasdaq has worked with the Institutional Limited Partners’ Association (ILPA) and FCLTGlobal to ensure its data collection aligns with ILPA’s newly published Diversity Metrics template, and respective guidelines published by each group. By aligning to these industry standards for private fund manager DEI data, Nasdaq aims to reduce barriers to information being shared and in turn increase ease of access and transparency for asset owners into the DEI efforts of private fund managers.

Private fund manager DEI data will be accessible to qualifying institutional asset owners within Nasdaq eVestment’s private markets database, which includes profiles on more than 6,000 private fund managers detailing investment strategy, fund performance and more.

“Fund managers have experienced significant challenges in trying to comply with requests from investors asking for different data points in varying formats,” said Katey Bogue, Vice President and Head of Nasdaq Private Fund Solutions. “We first need to remove that friction and then we can support meaningful changes through accurate and reliable data. Through our collaboration with ILPA and FCLTGlobal we hope to provide an efficient and streamlined framework for DEI disclosure and enhanced transparency for the investment community.”

Private fund managers are invited to provide their data to Nasdaq’s eVestment platform beginning today, to ensure their firm is accurately represented prior to access being granted to qualifying institutional asset owners. In line with the templates published by ILPA and FCLTGlobal, Nasdaq’s eVestment platform will collect and make available information on:

  • Diversity metrics for investment company firm ownership, investment committee and professionals.
  • Aggregated diversity metrics for board and senior management of private funds’ portfolio companies.

Diversity dimensions include gender, race/ethnicity and identification as LGBTQ+, veterans and persons with disabilities.

“We’re thrilled to see Nasdaq adopt the designations and structure of our Diversity Metrics template into their DEI data collection initiative and to also take a significant step in driving transparency into the level of progress the industry is making around diversity,” said Jen Choi, Managing Director of Industry Affairs, ILPA. “Ensuring consistency of how information is communicated across the industry by aligning with the guidelines we and FCLTGlobal have published will also have a positive impact on the empowerment of limited partners, which we’re always pleased to support.”

Nasdaq’s collaboration with ILPA and FCLTGlobal underscores the demand from asset owners to understand the state of DEI across their entire portfolios – both public and private markets strategies. Today’s announcement is an expansion of the DEI initiative announced in June to provide investors with free access to traditional asset manager and hedge fund manager DEI data through its eVestment database. To read more about that effort, please click here.

Opanga Announces the Availability of Merlin: Radio-Aware Machine Learning RAN Analytics

SEATTLE, Nov. 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Today, Opanga is announcing the availability of its breakthrough RAN Analytics platform which, for the first time, uniquely combines the power of big data and data science with radio-aware machine learning to modernize RAN planning, improving mobile consumer experience and materially increasing RAN CAPEX and OPEX efficiency.

“As a first for wireless, we’re deploying our innovative radio-aware machine learning and data science tech to overhaul the traditional RAN investment and CAPEX allocation process,” said Dave Ryan, Opanga CTO. “Our RAN Analytics solution, branded Merlin, modernizes the way network engineers can ensure that every penny of CAPEX they deploy provides measurable consumer experience benefits for their customers.”

Opanga’s RAN Optimization technology has been deployed by operators worldwide yielding material RAN performance improvement. The radio-aware machine learning tech at the core of Opanga’s RAN Optimization solutions is now leveraged by Merlin to resolve the age-old challenge of the wireless industry – lack of insight into the closed and proprietary RAN. Using Merlin, operators can more accurately target, and scale RAN CAPEX based on explicit real time consumer experience metrics while proactively ensuring that every future CAPEX investment will yield a strong and measurable ROI.

“The industry’s march to ORAN is gaining momentum fast which is really great to see,” said Ryan, “but there is no reason for operators to wait for ORAN to realize some of that great vision. Merlin is deployable on a single server in today’s traditional or virtualized mobile data centers and provides much of the ORAN concept in terms of RAN insight – today. Operators don’t currently have a way to definitively couple RAN CAPEX, their most dominant cost, directly to consumer experience, the fundamental product they sell. Merlin provides these desperately needed business analytics right now”.

About Opanga Networks

Transformational 4G and 5G Network Performance

Opanga is the global leader in delivering radio-aware machine learning solutions to improve RAN performance and analytics. Our solutions are deployed in the mobile core at software speed and scale. Opanga is focused on delivering innovative software solutions for 4G, 5G and ORAN networks.
