SAN DIEGO, Jan 13, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Germany's Federal Office of Bundeswehr Equipment, Information Technology and In-Service Support and the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) have announced the procurement of eight MQ-9B SeaGuardian® Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) from General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI). The program includes four Certifiable Ground Control Stations.

From left to right: Allan McLeod, NSPA, Chris Dusseault, GA-ASI, and Joseph Lyden, NSPA.Germany joins a growing list of NATO countries that have selected GA-ASI's advanced MQ-9B RPA for its multi-domain capabilities with exceptionally long range and endurance. The platform provides pole-to-pole satellite control and de-icing capabilities to enable missions in cold climates. SeaGuardian features two multi-mode surface-search radars that deliver wide-area maritime surveillance, with an option to add Anti-Submarine Warfare capability. Additionally, MQ-9B's in-house-developed Detect and Avoid System aids its ability to fly in unsegregated airspace for domestic civilian operations, making it highly versatile for operations from Germany.In 2025, MQ-9B became the first large RPA to obtain a Military Type Certificate from the UK's Military Aviation Authority, certifying its safe operation without geographic restrictions, including over populous areas."We're thrilled that Germany has joined the list of NATO countries that have selected MQ-9B SeaGuardian," said GA-ASI CEO Linden Blue. "The proliferation of MQ-9B in Europe delivers commonality between NATO countries and for Germany, it will provide opportunities for interoperability with their fleet of P-8As."The acquisition negotiation was executed on behalf of Germany by NSPA, which has developed a contractual framework through the MQ-9 Support Partnership (MIC SP) for supporting cooperation amongst its member nations and enabling the procurement of MQ-9B for NATO Allies and Partners.

SBX Product Line Will Feature First-Ever AI-Powered Blockchain-Based Age-Gating System for Vape ProductsIKE's patented biometric BLE Bluetooth chip and blockchain-based app will enable Charlie's to ensure that underage individuals will not be able to activate or utilize the Company's age-gated products.The IKE Licensing Agreement provides CHUC with a first mover advantage in youth access prevention (one of the FDA's top priorities) and a three-year exclusivity period for age-gated nicotine analogue products.Charlie's will test market the IKE age-gating system this spring with the Company's popular SBX nicotine analogue product line; simultaneously, Charlie's intends to incorporate the revolutionary technology into its PACHA branded Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems (ENDS).COSTA MESA, CA, Jan 12, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Charlie's Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB:CHUC) ("Charlie's" or the "Company"), an industry leader in the premium vapor products space, today reported that the Company has signed a definitive licensing agreement with IKE Tech LLC ("IKE") to commercialize the first-ever AI-powered blockchain-based age-gating system for vape products in the United States.E-cigarettes and related vapor products are widely recognized as lower risk alternatives to combustible cigarettes. Accordingly, over the last 15 years, e-cigarette usage in the United States has grown significantly while combustible cigarette smoking rates have dropped. Public health advocates are pleased by this development.80-90% of adult consumers prefer flavored vapor productsBoth the e-cigarette industry and public health officials have come to recognize that 80-90% of adult consumers prefer flavored vapor products over tobacco, menthol, or "clear" flavors and understand that most adult cigarette smokers will continue using traditional combustible products if flavored vapor products are not available. However, operating on the assumption that flavored vapor products can be highly attractive to youth - and that the priority for public health must be the prevention of nicotine usage by underage consumers - to date, the FDA has not authorized for sale in the United States a single flavored vapor product.California, Massachusetts, parts of New York State, and many other regions across the country have also imposed significant restrictions or outright bans on flavored ENDS products. These bans have led to an explosion of illicit foreign products, confusion among retailers, and, most unfortunately, to the elimination of legal flavored products as an option for many adult cigarette smokers who would prefer to switch to far less harmful (flavored) vapes.In this environment, it is apparent that the only way to provide adult smokers with the flavored vapor products that they desire over far more harmful combustible cigarettes, is to "age-gate" flavored vapor products in such a way as to eliminate the possibility that underage consumers can activate or utilize the devices.Numerous companies in the vapor products industry have spent years and millions of dollars on the development of age-gating systems. Most of these systems, however, do not feature "continuous age-gating" (and may, therefore, result in a scenario where the ineffectively age-gated product is purchased by an adult consumer and subsequently used by an underage individual), or the age-gating mechanism is so complex and cumbersome that it renders the device commercially infeasible. Further, to date, no age-gated vapor product has received FDA authorization to be sold in the US market.Continuous age-gating is the only effective means of preventing youth usageCharlie's age-gated SBX Disposable vape - utilizing IKE's patented technology - prevents underage consumers from activating or utilizing the device using BLE-enabled chips and biometric authentication to control the device continuously and in real-time.In a multi-center Human Factors Validation Study designed to evaluate (i) effectiveness in preventing underage access to the ENDS products, (ii) usability, and (iii) safety, results showed:100% of users successfully completed age verification0% of underage users were able to activate a device100% of devices deactivated after a period of inactivity or loss of Bluetooth signal91% rated the app "Extremely Easy" or "Very Easy" to useErrors occurred in only 1% of task attemptsThe results of the Human Factors Validation Study confirm that the IKE age-gating system effectively prevents underage access and provides a highly user-friendly experience for adults. Full findings from the study will be published on clinicaltrials.gov, and the Abstract can be found on https://www.iketech.com/clinical-trials/protocolsCharlie's will test market the IKE age-gating system this spring with a special line of the Company's popular SBX nicotine analogue product; simultaneously, Charlie's intends to incorporate the revolutionary technology into its PACHA branded Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems (ENDS)."There is a large un-met need for technologies that can satisfy or accommodate concerns the FDA has related to youth access... which means there is a multi-BILLION market opportunity for flavored vapes that are inoperable for underage individuals," explained Henry Sicignano, Charlie's President. "We believe Charlie's could become the first Company to demonstrate to the FDA that age-gated flavored vape products are indeed ‘appropriate for the protection of public health.' Such a success would not only be game changing for Charlie's, but also transformational for the entire industry."John Patterson, President of IKE Tech explained, "IKE is establishing the blueprint for responsible vaping globally. Our agreement with Charlie's represents an industry first in deploying proprietary technologies that protect public health, enable regulatory compliance, and drive sustainable industry growth. We chose to partner with Charlie's because Charlie's non-nicotine SBX product line enables immediate deployment of age-gated technology to the US market, ahead of standard PMTA timelines. This partnership is proof that the industry can bring manufacturers, regulators, and innovators together to protect youth, secure the supply chain, and ensure responsible access for adults.""We believe age-gating is both a responsible business practice as well as a significant competitive advantage for Charlie's," commented Ryan Stump, Charlie's Chief Operating Officer. "By voluntarily age-gating a product that does not require FDA approval, Charlie's will demonstrate to public health officials - and to compliance-minded national convenience store chains - that the Company is absolutely committed to regulatory compliance and youth access prevention."About Charlie's Holdings, Inc.Charlie's Holdings, Inc.

In addition to traditional distributors and importers, we have also invited major e-commerce platforms, importers, department stores, specialty retailers, retail chains and sourcing offices, creating new cross-regional and cross-sector opportunities for the industry."Three fairs reveal multiple product trendsSeveral product trends are emerging from this year's exhibitors, pointing the way forward for the industry to gain a first-mover advantage. These trends include:Pop culture and collectibles toys: The “kidult” and toy collecting markets continue to grow in popularity, injecting strong growth momentum into the toy industry. The “Pop & Play” pavilion brings together some 150 famous local and international IPs – including top names such as B.Duck, CardFun, CR7® LIFE, Hot Toys, LAURA, Moshow Toys, Play Bonito®, Room One, threezero, TUTU MOKEY and more.

The new Happy Ageing label is being introduced at this year’s Toys & Games Fair to help buyers identify toys and related products for seniors. More than 40 exhibitors will adopt the label and showcase relevant products, including colour-sorting exercises designed by a Hong Kong exhibitor that train muscles in the thumb, index and middle fingers using clips (Booth: 1CON-015); a companion plush toy that alleviates loneliness and soothes emotions for seniors (Booth: 1D-C38); and the DIY Flip Monster from Taiwan (Booth: 1D-C13).Sustainable products stimulate demand: In recent years, more parents have opted for eco-friendly toys to reduce their environmental impact, reflecting the trend for sustainable consumption.

This trend has driven demand for educational and intellectually stimulating products.

The character Derpy is particularly well-known, with its squishy catering to the growing fanbase for KPop characters (Booth: 1E-B16). The exhibitor also features a replica of the Gonggi Tossing Game featured in Season 2 of Squid Game, bringing to life one of Korea's most iconic childhood games while allowing fans to relive the thrill of the series.Pinkfong, the Korean brand beloved by children for its Baby Shark videos and toys, makes its debut appearance with the Pinkfong Baby Shark Alphabet Learning Bus, a best-selling early-learning toy that helps preschoolers explore letters and vocabulary (Booth: 1CON-044).Interactive activities and IP development opportunities at “Pop & Play”The inaugural “Pop & Play” pavilion not only showcases trendy toys from around 150 popular IPs but also features a series of interactive elements – including photo opportunities, creative exchanges and autograph sessions – allowing buyers and the public to fully experience the pop toy culture.

香港, 2026年1月12日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 1月8日，联想控股旗下联想之星与君联资本所投手术机器人领军企业精锋医疗（02675.HK）成功登陆港交所，发行价为每股43.24港元，股票代码：2675.HK。这家公司上市首日开盘涨超38%，市值达到230亿港元。精锋医疗成立于2017年，是中国领先的手术机器人公司，是中国首家、全球第二家同时取得多孔腔镜手术机器人、单孔腔镜手术机器人及自然腔道手术机器人注册审批的公司。公司专注于手术机器人及配套器械的研发、生产与销售，产品覆盖泌尿外科、妇科、普外科、胸外科等多科室微创手术需求。精锋医疗亦是国家高新技术企业、国家专精特新"小巨人"企业，曾获2023年度国家科学技术进步奖二等奖。公司在全球共拥有700多项专利及专利申请，其中核心产品超过400项专利，创新突破打破了我国手术机器人领域进口技术的长期垄断。作为一家医疗器械行业的先进手术机器人公司，精锋医疗拥有多孔腔镜手术机器人和单孔腔镜手术机器人。弗若斯特沙利文资料显示，2024年精锋医疗在中国售出20台多孔腔镜手术机器人，在国内制造商中销量排名第一。截至2025年6月30日，公司核心产品全球销售合约量已达61台，并已完成超过14,000例机器人辅助临床手术，产品性能与可靠性得到市场验证。2025年10月，精锋医疗自主研发的精锋单孔腔镜手术机器人SP1000及单多孔手术机器人超级系统MSP2000正式获得欧盟CE认证（MDR）。这标志着全球首个"单多孔一体化"手术机器人平台成功进入国际市场，开启了由中国智慧定义的"全能微创"手术新时代。联想之星：连续出手两次，唯一一家系统布局医疗健康的早期投资机构一路走来，这家由天津大学校友王建辰和高元倩创立的公司得到了联想之星、联想控股、君联资本、红杉中国、博裕投资等众多知名投资者的支持。其中，联控旗下联想之星是股东里面唯一一家系统布局医疗健康领域的早期投资机构。按照230亿港元市值粗略计算，两笔投资已经让联想之星获得了近20倍的账面回报。"精锋医疗成功上市，也使得联想之星在人工智能、机器人领域得到进一步深化。"联想之星总裁、主管合伙人王明耀表示，"人工智能、机器人将持续改造各行各业，手术机器人是其中一个非常好的品类，会发挥越来越大的作用。"在2018年与精锋医疗初次接触，联想之星团队便发现对方在众多方面表现惊艳，但严谨的他们选择进一步调研，迅速启动了对手术机器人赛道的横向扫描与深度研究。通过走访大量医院与专家访谈，以及与业内人士交流，最终构成了他们重注前的信心与基础。感受到这家公司蕴含的发展潜力后，联想之星果断做出投资的决定，并对其追加投资。此后，借助联想之星的投后帮助和创业CEO特训班等资源，精锋医疗的发展得到进一步提速。事实上，在当时果断并坚定地投手术机器人，需要莫大的勇气和决心。能做出如此前瞻性的快速决策，源于联想之星自上而下的打法，先做深入分析，然后再寻找项目。这样的打法，也有赖于此前多年的认知、资源、经验的积累。早在2010年，联想之星便开始关注人工智能的底层技术。到了2015年，联想之星明确了人工智能、机器人会持续改造各行各业，并独立成立了投资小组，当时在硅谷的团队也在该赛道投了几十个项目。正是基于长期且深刻的认知，联想之星在2020年拿出当时一次能给到单个项目的最大金额，并且在下一轮追加投资精锋医疗，成为精锋医疗股东里唯一一家系统性布局医疗健康领域的早期投资机构。骄人成绩的取得，也源于联想之星在医疗健康领域的多年深耕。早在2010年，联想之星便将医疗健康作为重点投资布局的领域之一，成为最早系统布局医疗健康领域的早期投资机构之一。随着优秀的项目越投越多，这家投资机构在医疗健康领域形成了"生物医药"与"数智医疗"两大板块。在联想之星的布局中，生物医药包括创新药、基因技术与服务、诊断与高值耗材等；数智医疗则是利用人工智能、大数据、机器人等技术，对药物研发、医疗器械、医疗服务、保险支付与健康管理等各方面进行升级赋能的机会。随着科创赛道竞争白热化，联想之星表示将选择坚持投更"新"投更"精"。"投更新，是要在行业明确的趋势和拐点到来之前，提前进行预判；投更精，是要在估值上涨的前提下，优中选优。"在王明耀看来，人工智能、机器人、大数据等最新技术与整个医疗产业的结合，实际上蕴含着非常大的机会，"基于联想之星的能力和经验积累，我们未来在医疗健康领域会继续加大投入。"君联资本：与社保基金中关村自主创新专项基金首次迎来投资企业上市联想控股旗下君联资本与社保基金中关村自主创新专项基金（以下简称"社保中关村专项基金"）亦在2024年、2025年三次投资精锋医疗。投资后，君联资本充分发挥在医疗科技领域的深厚产业资源与投后服务能力，在公司战略规划、高端人才引进、全球市场拓展等方面提供了支持，助力公司巩固技术壁垒并加速产品商业化落地。作为中关村"先行先试"改革之一，社保中关村专项基金首次迎来投资企业上市，这一里程碑事件不仅彰显了君联资本在硬科技领域的敏锐洞察力和投资能力，更凸显了长期耐心资本在支持科技创新方面迈出的重要一步。君联资本表示：精锋医疗的成功上市，是其以原创技术突破国际垄断，引领中国手术机器人产业发展的标志性成果。公司凭借全面的产品布局、经临床验证的卓越性能以及快速商业化的能力，不仅在国内市场迅速确立领导地位，更在国际舞台上展现出强大竞争力。期待公司以上市为新起点，持续加大研发创新与生产投入，进一步拓展临床应用与全球市场，赋能全球外科医生与患者，为推动中国高端医疗装备的自主可控与产业升级做出更大贡献。长期以来，君联资本在医疗健康领域进行系统性布局，重点关注生物技术、创新药、医疗器械及AI+医疗等前沿方向。在高端医疗器械与医疗机器人赛道，君联资本表示，将持续看好具备底层技术创新和全球商业化能力的优秀企业。 Copyright 2026 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

LONDON, Jan 9, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Capital Margin Trade, a leading online brokerage firm, recently announced the launch of tools designed specifically for structured market execution, placing practicality ahead of feature volume. The initiative reflects a broader effort to refine how traders interact with the platform on a daily basis, particularly in environments where clarity, timing, and execution discipline tend to outweigh visual appeal or experimental features.The Capital Margin Trade trading platform is built around a straightforward premise. Trading tools should work together smoothly and remain accessible under real market conditions. Market access, charting, and order management are combined within a single interface, reducing the need to switch between sections during active trading. Over time, this type of structure often proves more valuable than frequent interface changes that require constant readjustment.Charting has been one of the more fully formed components of the platform. With multiple chart time frames, layered indicators, and customizable chart layouts, users have an opportunity to evaluate price action without extraneous distractions. The tools continue to remain stable even in times of increased volatility, which is often when stability can become a major issue. While the platform does not aim to replicate institutional-grade software, it offers sufficient analytical depth to support structured technical analysis and routine market monitoring.Execution tools on the Capital Margin Trade broker platform follow a similar logic. Orders can be placed and managed without interrupting the broader workflow, allowing traders to stay focused on market movement rather than interface navigation. Real-time price feeds across supported instruments provide continuous visibility, helping users react as conditions change. Execution speed, as with any platform, remains dependent on market conditions, though overall performance is generally consistent during standard trading hours.Risk management features are integrated directly into the trading process. Users can input a stop-loss and/or take-profit level at the time they enter a trade, or adjust those levels once their trades are active. This provides users with the opportunity to make decisions based upon their own risk assessment without forcing the use of pre-defined automated strategy templates. While some traders may look for deeper automation, others may value the ability to remain closely involved in managing exposure.Beyond execution and charting, the Capital Margin Trade trading platform includes a market overview section that offers context without constant interruptions. Instead of relying on frequent alerts, traders can access summarized information when needed. This quieter approach supports independent analysis and may suit users who prefer to interpret data rather than respond to prompts.Accessibility across devices remains consistent. The Capital Margin Trade broker infrastructure is web-based, allowing traders to access accounts from desktops, laptops, tablets, or smartphones without additional downloads. While mobile trading naturally limits screen space, essential functions such as monitoring positions and placing orders remain available, which can be useful for traders managing positions away from their primary setups.In terms of the way the user interacts with the platform, there are multiple layers of operational complexity. The account settings, margin controls, and view of all open positions are clearly defined and separate from each other, allowing for greater ease of managing exposure to risk without having to navigate through layers of menu options. During active market phases, this clarity can help reduce operational friction. Traders seeking highly customized algorithmic environments may find the setup more manual, though this appears intentional for users who prefer hands-on control.Funding and withdrawal processes follow established industry standards. The platform supports commonly used payment methods and prioritizes reliability over experimentation. While options may seem limited for users seeking alternative payment solutions, transaction procedures remain clear and supported by standard verification processes.Security is treated as a baseline requirement rather than a headline feature. Capital Margin Trade trading platform operations include user verification protocols and encrypted data handling designed to protect account access and transactional information without adding unnecessary complexity to daily use.Overall, the ongoing development of Capital Margin Trade broker services suggests a measured, methodical approach. The emphasis has shifted from seeking rapid expansion and numerous new features every few weeks to maintaining a consistent and reliable trading environment. The steady, long-term nature of this strategy could be attractive to those who have become accustomed to using a platform that they feel comfortable with over time, as opposed to having to adjust to rapidly changing tool behavior and workflow changes at short notice. In addition, for traders who place high value on stability, consistency, and predictability in their trading activities (i.e., those who are able to derive long-term benefits from the familiarity of a consistent trading environment), this long-term approach will likely lead to a more productive long-term trading experience than one based on continuous upgrades.About Capital Margin TradeCapital Margin Trade is an online brokerage firm that provides web-based access to global financial markets, utilizing a web-based trading platform. Capital Margin Trade is focused on providing useful tools to assist traders, along with a stable, functional platform structure that supports traders who take a disciplined, execution-oriented approach to trading versus traders who want to constantly experiment with feature-rich platforms.Media ContactBrand: Capital Margin TradeContact: Media Relations TeamWebsite: https://capitalmargintrade.com Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
