mimik Ignites Abu Dhabi Edge AI Revolution—New Joint Venture Builds a Global Blueprint for Industrial Edge Agentic AI




mimik Ignites Abu Dhabi Edge AI Revolution—New Joint Venture Builds a Global Blueprint for Industrial Edge Agentic AI

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#ADAutonomousSummit–mimik, a global pioneer in device-first Continuum AI and agentic software, has signed a strategic MOU to establish mimik UAE, in partnership with Next71 Ltd and ASK Holding LLC, key local investment vehicles driving Artificial Intelligence innovation in the region. The partnership, announced during Abu Dhabi Autonomous Week, aligns with Abu Dhabi’s vision to position the UAE as a global leader in AI and sovereign technology development. The creation of mimik UAE underscores the partners’ strong commitment to advancing the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and the Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Technology Council (AIATC) to accelerate the nation’s sovereign digital capabilities and innovation ecosystem.

“Together with mimik we are reimagining what’s possible — building a smart, sustainable economy where intelligence exists everywhere, for everyone,” said Sara Dhafer Alahbabi, Director of SPV and Portfolio Relations at Next71. “mimik UAE will empower local industries and innovators with the autonomy, flexibility, and security required to push artificial intelligence to every level of the Emirates’ AI ambitions.”

By decentralizing AI, mimik UAE will accelerate the Emirates’ pledge to create a diversified, knowledge-based economy driven by sustainability and innovation that serves every citizen. The strategic partnership marks a decisive move beyond traditional cloud computing as mimik’s technology enables distributed intelligence across devices, vehicles, and infrastructure, turning cities into interconnected, autonomous systems that adapt in real time.

The other partner in the joint venture, ASK Holding, states, “We’re not chasing another cloud trend—we’re building sovereign intelligence where life happens on our roads, in our ports, across our factories, and in every small business. Together with mimik and Next71, we are moving the UAE from cloud-first to citizen-first AI—private, resilient, and real-time. This partnership turns devices into doers and data into new industries, new jobs, and safer communities—built in Abu Dhabi, for the UAE.”

As humanity enters the age of the agentic economy, the world is shifting from a cloud-dominant, app-based SaaS model to an era defined by billions of intelligent agents and a knowledge-as-a-Service (KaaS) economy valued in the trillions. This transformation demands a new kind of software infrastructure, one that is distributed, autonomous, and deeply contextual.

“We are entering the age of the agentic economy,” said Fay Arjomandi, Founder and CEO of mimik. “With built-in sovereignty and execution, along with sustainability and energy cost savings, mimik provides the most valuable tech stack for the agentic-native economy. The mimik platform enables operational freedom and control, while simultaneously delivering customers the flexibility they need to grow their businesses.”

Device-First Continuum AI represents an evolution. It is local and offline-first, yet effortlessly connected, enabling every device—robot, sensor, or machine—to become self-aware and contextually intelligent. These devices process and act at the edge, collaborating dynamically with each other and with humans to form an adaptive, decentralized intelligence network.

mimik UAE will become a cornerstone in Abu Dhabi’s agentic future, fuelling AI innovation, cultivating advanced talent, and strengthening regional data sovereignty. Together, the partners in the mimik UAE joint venture envision Abu Dhabi as the world’s leading hub for physical AI, where intelligence transcends centralized data centers to form a living, evolving mesh of interconnected systems that grows alongside society itself.

About mimik

mimik powers the Agentic Economy with Agentix-Native software that turns everyday devices into intelligent collaborative systems. Its software platform enables real-time inference across smartphones, cameras, drones, robots, machines, and servers. By creating a Device-First AI continuum across endpoint devices and the cloud, mimik gives a way for enterprises to operationalize agentic AI, scale intelligence, and optimize performance and cost.

mimik Ignites Abu Dhabi Edge AI Revolution—New Joint Venture Builds a Global Blueprint for Industrial Edge Agentic AI




mimik Ignites Abu Dhabi Edge AI Revolution—New Joint Venture Builds a Global Blueprint for Industrial Edge Agentic AI

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#ADAutonomousSummit–mimik, a global pioneer in device-first Continuum AI and agentic software, has signed a strategic MOU to establish mimik UAE, in partnership with Next71 Ltd and ASK Holding LLC, key local investment vehicles driving Artificial Intelligence innovation in the region. The partnership, announced during Abu Dhabi Autonomous Week, aligns with Abu Dhabi’s vision to position the UAE as a global leader in AI and sovereign technology development. The creation of mimik UAE underscores the partners’ strong commitment to advancing the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and the Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Technology Council (AIATC) to accelerate the nation’s sovereign digital capabilities and innovation ecosystem.

“Together with mimik we are reimagining what’s possible — building a smart, sustainable economy where intelligence exists everywhere, for everyone,” said Sara Dhafer Alahbabi, Director of SPV and Portfolio Relations at Next71. “mimik UAE will empower local industries and innovators with the autonomy, flexibility, and security required to push artificial intelligence to every level of the Emirates’ AI ambitions.”

By decentralizing AI, mimik UAE will accelerate the Emirates’ pledge to create a diversified, knowledge-based economy driven by sustainability and innovation that serves every citizen. The strategic partnership marks a decisive move beyond traditional cloud computing as mimik’s technology enables distributed intelligence across devices, vehicles, and infrastructure, turning cities into interconnected, autonomous systems that adapt in real time.

The other partner in the joint venture, ASK Holding, states, “We’re not chasing another cloud trend—we’re building sovereign intelligence where life happens on our roads, in our ports, across our factories, and in every small business. Together with mimik and Next71, we are moving the UAE from cloud-first to citizen-first AI—private, resilient, and real-time. This partnership turns devices into doers and data into new industries, new jobs, and safer communities—built in Abu Dhabi, for the UAE.”

As humanity enters the age of the agentic economy, the world is shifting from a cloud-dominant, app-based SaaS model to an era defined by billions of intelligent agents and a knowledge-as-a-Service (KaaS) economy valued in the trillions. This transformation demands a new kind of software infrastructure, one that is distributed, autonomous, and deeply contextual.

“We are entering the age of the agentic economy,” said Fay Arjomandi, Founder and CEO of mimik. “With built-in sovereignty and execution, along with sustainability and energy cost savings, mimik provides the most valuable tech stack for the agentic-native economy. The mimik platform enables operational freedom and control, while simultaneously delivering customers the flexibility they need to grow their businesses.”

Device-First Continuum AI represents an evolution. It is local and offline-first, yet effortlessly connected, enabling every device—robot, sensor, or machine—to become self-aware and contextually intelligent. These devices process and act at the edge, collaborating dynamically with each other and with humans to form an adaptive, decentralized intelligence network.

mimik UAE will become a cornerstone in Abu Dhabi’s agentic future, fuelling AI innovation, cultivating advanced talent, and strengthening regional data sovereignty. Together, the partners in the mimik UAE joint venture envision Abu Dhabi as the world’s leading hub for physical AI, where intelligence transcends centralized data centers to form a living, evolving mesh of interconnected systems that grows alongside society itself.

Best’s Market Segment Report: AM Best Maintains Stable Outlook on New Zealand’s Life Insurance Segment




Best’s Market Segment Report: AM Best Maintains Stable Outlook on New Zealand’s Life Insurance Segment

SINGAPORE–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#insurance—AM Best is maintaining its stable outlook on the New Zealand life insurance segment, based in part on improving economic conditions, ongoing regulatory refinements that support market discipline, digitalisation efforts and robust capital adequacy levels among its insurers.

While there are indications that New Zealand’s economy is experiencing signs of a recovery, AM Best anticipates muted premium growth in the life insurance segment over the short-to-medium term. Persistent cost of living pressures, high household debt levels, and weak real wage growth continue to constrain discretionary spending on protection products.

According to the report, prolonged competitive pressures are expected to support product optimisation and promote heavier discounting and incentives for new customers. “These trends can erode new business margins and further increase lapse risk, which has been elevated in recent post-pandemic periods,” said Yi Ding, associate director, AM Best. “In addition, compliance and system investments linked to regulatory requirements continue to weigh on short-term profitability.”

The Financial Markets (Conduct of Institutions) Amendment Act 2022 (the CoFI Act), which took effect on 31 March 2025, requires insurers to operate under a fair conduct principle, ensuring policyholders are treated ethically and transparently throughout the product life cycle. Insurance companies have already absorbed substantial expenses to meet the IFRS 17 requirements, effective since January 2023. Now with CoFI implementation underway, insurers face further investment in governance frameworks, staff training, and technology to ensure compliance.

“Smaller insurers and those with large legacy portfolios are under greater pressure to modernise systems and strengthen oversight while maintaining profitability,” Ding said.

AM Best will discuss New Zealand’s insurance industry in further detail at its Insurance Market Briefing – Auckland, which will take place at 3:30 p.m. (GMT+13) on Thursday, 13 November 2025, at Level 2/204 Quay Street, Auckland. Presentations and a Q&A session will run to 5:30 p.m. (NZDT); a networking reception will immediately follow.

Workers at Aimbridge-operated hotels in Los Angeles and Philadelphia strike during event-filled weekend, UNITE HERE reports




Workers at Aimbridge-operated hotels in Los Angeles and Philadelphia strike during event-filled weekend, UNITE HERE reports

Workers at hotels owned by RLJ Lodging Trust on both coasts walk off the job in effort to win wages and benefits that enable them to afford to raise families in the cities where they work

LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–In the shadow of the Hollywood Bowl, hotel workers at the Hilton Garden Inn hotel in Hollywood started a picket line at 6 AM local time today.

The 160-room hotel, owned by RLJ Lodging Trust and operated by Aimbridge Hospitality, expected high occupancy this weekend for one of the last Hollywood Bowl concerts of the year.

In Philadelphia, workers at the Wyndham Historic District hotel—also owned by RLJ Lodging Trust and operated by Aimbridge—walked off the job earlier today, just ahead of the Thanksgiving travel season.

“Whether we strike is up to the employers and how willing they are to pay us fairly for the work we do,” said Maria Christina Velasquez, a shop steward with UNITE HERE Local 11 and laundry attendant at the Hilton Garden Inn Hollywood since 2019. “We’re ready for anything.”

“Hotel workers like me go on strike to win raises that keep up with the rising cost of living, pensions, high quality union healthcare, and safe workloads,” said Brent Allen, a restaurant server and member of UNITE HERE Local 274 at the Wyndham Historic District since 2023. “We’re going to welcome millions of visitors to Philly in 2026, but most of us can’t pay our basic bills. We deserve to be able to live dignified lives but that can only happen if the hotel owner and operator pay us what we deserve.”

RLJ Lodging Trust (NYSE: RLJ) owns a portfolio of nearly 100 hotels across 23 states and the District of Columbia. The company just this week announced a year-over-year drop in both revenue and net income. According to campaign filings, between July and September of this year, RLJ Lodging Trust donated $25,000 to the effort to defeat a $30 minimum wage for hospitality workers that the Los Angeles City Council passed in May.

Aimbridge hospitality operates hotels across the world under known brands like Hilton, Hyatt, and Windham. Aimbridge-operated properties were among the last to settle during the 2023–2024 Southern California Hotel Strike, the largest hotel strike in modern U.S. history.

UNITE HERE Local 11 is more than 32,000 hospitality workers in Southern California and Arizona who work in hotels, restaurants, universities, convention centers, and airports.

UNITE HERE LOCAL 274 is 4,000 private-sector hotel and food service workers at stadiums, universities, cafeterias, and hotels throughout the Philadelphia region.

Both are affiliates of UNITE HERE, a labor union representing 300,000 workers in gaming, hotel, and food service industries in North America.

FIS Launches Innovative Asset Servicing Management Suite to Unlock Operational Efficiency Across Asset Servicing




FIS Launches Innovative Asset Servicing Management Suite to Unlock Operational Efficiency Across Asset Servicing

Key facts

• FIS Asset Servicing Management Suite helps capital investment work harder by unlocking operational efficiencies across all areas of asset servicing.
• The comprehensive suite covers corporate actions processing, proxy voting, class actions claims, operational claims and tax reclaim management.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Global financial technology leader FIS^® has announced the launch of FIS Asset Servicing Management Suite, a comprehensive suite of automated and integrated solutions which help unlock operational efficiency across all areas of asset servicing.

The suite combines the traditionally separate critical functions of corporate actions processing, proxy voting, class actions claims, operational claims and tax reclaim management to revolutionize asset servicing, creating a seamless experience which helps capital investment to work more efficiently and underscores FIS’ commitment to unlocking financial technology to the world.

Why FIS Asset Servicing Management Suite Matters

Asset servicing is under growing pressure. Many organizations are relying on multiple vendors which leads to fragmented data, inefficiencies, and a greater chance for mistakes. This fragmented infrastructure also makes cost control harder and amplifies operational risk, which could have a negative impact on customer satisfaction. This lack of operational agility and complexity can significantly hinder the effectiveness of asset servicing operations.

To address these challenges, FIS Asset Servicing Management Suite represents a fundamental shift in how financial institutions approach asset servicing operations. This single, integrated platform provides transparency and control across the entire asset servicing lifecycle.

The unified platform can replace the need for multiple vendors and minimizes data fragmentation, providing accurate and streamlined data to provide better insights. By automating workflows that previously required extensive manual intervention, the suite enables institutions to focus on strategic value creation rather than operational maintenance. Additionally, the suite reduces risk, improves decision-making, provides cost efficiencies and enhances the overall client experience.

Matt Stauffer, head of Back Office Solutions at FIS, said: “Operational inefficiencies in asset servicing directly translate to real financial losses for everyday investors. When corporate actions are processed incorrectly or proxy votes fail to reach their intended destination, or qualification to participate in class action opportunities are not identified, it is not just institutions that suffer – it is also the customers whose pensions and savings depend on these systems working flawlessly. FIS Asset Servicing Management Suite helps to eliminate the fragmented and often overlooked post-trade infrastructure that creates these risks, unlocking operational efficiency across all areas of asset servicing.”
