This is a critical step for the Company's ability to receive the permit to assemble and operate its lithium processing plant and to process the mined ore at the facility.Atlas Lithium filed its operational permit application on September 1, 2023. Since then, the Company's Neves Project has been inspected by the Agency's technical team, an essential step in the permitting process. During the last twelve months, Atlas Lithium received multiple sets of technical questions from the Agency's staff which the Company addressed timely, leading up to the issuance of the Agency's comprehensive report with the favorable recommendation for the approval of the Company's permit application.Marc Fogassa, CEO of the Company, commented, "This milestone announcement is one of the most significant developments in Atlas Lithium's history. We extend our gratitude to the numerous experts from the environmental agency of the state of Minas Gerais who thoroughly analyzed our project and concluded with their recommendation for approval of our permit.

According to HubSpot’s research:High costs is the leading challenge faced by Singapore business (44%) with one in five (22%) saying it’s the biggest challenge they are facing.Intense competition (39%), rising costs of reaching audiences (35%), and channel saturation (34%) emerged as other top challenges in attracting and retaining customers among Singapore businesses.Less than half (43%) of Singapore businesses strongly agree that their data and systems are effectively interconnected to provide a cohesive and comprehensive view of their customers.The average business in Singapore has to switch between 58+ distinct applications just to manage their customer interactions.Nearly eight in ten (76%) of Singapore businesses also do not have enough data or the right data to make their AI usage effective, while about a third (34%) have not ‘started talking about generative AI at all’.SINGAPORE, Sept 23, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - HubSpot, the customer platform for scaling businesses, has released new data showing that many Singapore companies are contending with insufficient quality data and a disjointed tech stack even as costs and competition continue to rise.Andy Pitre, EVP of Product, HubSpot, launching Breeze at INBOUND 2024Go-to-market teams—marketing, sales, and service—hold the keys to customer happiness, revenue generation, and ultimately business growth. But today, GTM teams are struggling to keep up, let alone drive growth, thanks to intense competition, increasing costs to reach prospects and customers, and channel saturation. To make matters worse, their tech stacks are falling short.Nearly half of Singapore businesses participating in a HubSpot survey cited high costs (44%) as their number one challenge, with one in five (22%) saying it’s the biggest challenge they are facing. This aligns with data from the Singapore Business Federation, which identified increasing manpower and utilities costs as key contributors to business expenses.The survey also found that intense competition (39%), rising costs of reaching prospects and customers (35%), and channel saturation (34%) are impacting the ability of Singapore businesses to effectively attract and retain customers, potentially limiting their growth potential. Inability to compete against their peers could create additional pressures on Singapore businesses, especially with the country recently ranked the world’s most competitive economy worldwide.While technology has traditionally been viewed among Singapore businesses as a tool to augment competitiveness and allow them to punch above their weight, barriers remain when it comes to quality data and a modern tech stack.HubSpot’s findings indicate that less than half (43%) of Singapore businesses agree that their data and systems are effectively interconnected to provide a cohesive and comprehensive view of their customers. This can significantly increase complexity in managing customer interactions and experience, with the average business in Singapore needing to switch between more than 50 distinct applications just to manage customer interactions. As a result, many businesses may struggle to gain a consolidated view of their customers, leading to disconnected data and a suboptimal customer experience.“Needing to switch between more than 50 applications to manage customer interactions is not only detrimental to efficiency, but could also lead to inaccuracies as businesses try to align insights across disparate data sources. Having a single source of truth for customer data is essential to build and maintain meaningful customer relationships,” said Dan Bognar, Vice President & Managing Director of JAPAC, HubSpot. “Technology can give businesses a helping hand, however our findings show that data connectedness and a unified tech stack are presenting significant opportunities for local businesses looking to improve prospecting and customer retention.”An overall lack of quality data could also have had an impact on local adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) powered tools. According to HubSpot’s survey, nearly eight in ten (77%) of Singapore businesses felt they did not have enough data or the right data to make their AI usage effective. Perhaps as a consequence, about a third (34%) have not ‘started talking about generative AI at all’.“Operating in the world’s most competitive economy is no easy feat, requiring a delicate balance between manginging increasing costs, while delivering an impactful customer experience. At HubSpot, we are committed towards equipping businesses with applications that are easy to use, fast to implement, and delivered on a unified platform. This helps to align marketing, sales, and service teams with a unified view of their customer.” said Bognar.To help businesses grow better in today’s environment, HubSpot is committed to building easy, fast and unified tools.

SINGAPORE, Sept 21, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Choosing the right credit card from a vast array of options can offer long-term benefits for consumers. Some cards might provide valuable perks like redeemable points, while others offer appealing cashback rewards or even miles that never expire. Choose the credit card that would align with your current spending and offer you substantial benefits as well.Here are some ways to narrow down the choices based on a few factors below:Key Considerations When Choosing a Credit CardBefore you apply for a credit card, it is necessary to identify the best card for you and the one with features designed to meet your specific needs. For instance, are you looking for rewards, convenience, card security and extra financial flexibility? You can then easily filter out the options that meet your requirements.Card Benefits and FeaturesCredit cards can be powerful allies in managing finances and enhancing your lifestyle when used wisely. By understanding and leveraging the benefits and features, you can make the most of your card and achieve your financial goals.Exclusive Privileges:There is a wide range of travel, dining and shopping deals with your credit card merchants. You can redeem points, miles, or cash rebates on your cards. Compare the selected credit cards to check on the sign-up bonus and rewards to make your best choice.Reward programs: Earn reward points, miles, or cashback when you spend on your credit card.Travel benefits: Some cards offer travel insurance, airport lounge access, and other travel-related perks.Fraud protection: Credit cards typically offer robust security features and fraud protection, safeguarding you against unauthorized transactions.Pay bills and earn rewards: Pay your daily bills and earn reward points or miles at the same time.Instalment payment plan: Many cards allow you to convert large purchases into affordable instalments while still earning rewards.Select the Best Value Providing Credit CardAfter identifying the credit cards that suit your needs, you can further refine your selection by focusing on the added value each card offers. For example, if you compare credit cards with cash-back rewards, consider those that provide higher cash-back percentages or bonuses in categories where you spend the most. If several cards meet these criteria, you can then weigh other benefits, such as lower annual fees, introductory offers, or additional perks like travel insurance or purchase protection.Some credit card annual fee charges come with welcome bonus miles which exceeds the value of the annual fee payment. While selecting the card, it is important to know the amount that will be charged annually, so it doesn't come as a setback when you must pay for it.Final ThoughtsWith a multitude of credit card options available, selecting the right one can greatly enhance your financial experience. The ideal card can simplify your transactions and provide access to valuable benefits such as exclusive discounts, travel perks, and personalized rewards. Take the time to research the various types of credit cards to find one that aligns with your spending habits and preferences.

TORONTO, ON, Sep 17, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Ripple Therapeutics today announced a collaboration and option-to-license agreement with AbbVie to develop RTC-620, a next generation, fully biodegradable, sustained release drug delivery intracameral implant with repeat dosing capabilities to reduce intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open-angle glaucoma (OAG) or ocular hypertension (OHT). This collaboration leverages AbbVie's expertise in eye care and Ripple's innovative drug delivery platform.Ripple's patented technology platform is based on a discovery that drugs can be engineered into controlled release pharmaceuticals without the use of polymers or excipients. These proprietary prodrugs undergo surface erosion to give zero order release kinetics and are highly customizable to tailor both drug dose and duration. Because there are no polymers or excipients, once the drug is gone, the implant is gone with no pro-inflammatory degradation products, which supports repeat dosing."We're pleased to partner with AbbVie, a worldwide leader in ophthalmic therapeutics," said Tom Reeves, President and Chief Executive Officer, Ripple Therapeutics. "By combining our drug delivery platform with AbbVie's research, clinical, regulatory and commercial capabilities, we hope to deliver a meaningful impact on the lives of people living with glaucoma."Millions of people are living with glaucoma, one of the leading causes of vision loss. New treatment options are needed to help patients challenged with topical drops or who are at risk for vision loss and looking for alternative treatment options."At AbbVie, we strive to find innovative solutions to build our portfolio of vision-preserving therapies," said Michael Robinson, M.D., Vice President and Therapeutic Area Head, Ophthalmology, AbbVie. "We are excited to partner with Ripple to further advance the development of RTC-620."Under terms of the agreement, Ripple will lead preclinical development of RTC-620. Upon exercise of the option, AbbVie will lead the clinical and commercialization activities. Ripple will receive an upfront payment of $21.8 million from AbbVie and is eligible to receive up to $290 million in aggregate option fees and milestones, as well as tiered royalties on net sales.About Ripple TherapeuticsRipple Therapeutics Corporation is a privately held clinical stage company focused on improving ophthalmic therapeutics with controllable sustained delivery implants without the use of polymers or excipients. Our novel therapeutics provide better outcomes for patients, easier management of care for physicians and lower cost for payors. www.rippletherapeutics.comPiper Sandler acted as the exclusive financial advisor to Ripple.For further information:Media: Julie Fotheringham, jfotheringham@rippletherapeutics.com, 416-951-7988SOURCE: Ripple Therapeutics Copyright 2024 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
