Sales Forecasting Is Broken — MarketsandMarkets Launches AI Sales Analytics Hub to Help Teams Predict, Prioritize, and Perform

Delray Beach, FL, Aug. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — MarketsandMarkets, a global leader in B2B market intelligence, today announced the launch of its AI Sales Analytics Hub powered by the SalesPlay framework. This advanced platform addresses critical gaps in traditional forecasting through AI sales team optimization, account intelligence platforms, and lead enrichment software, enabling sales leaders to forecast with unprecedented accuracy and drive consistent performance.

From Gut Feel to Precision Forecasting

Despite significant investments in CRM and automation, 79% of sales teams still miss quarterly targets, with pipeline prediction accuracy hovering at just 47%. Legacy tools fail to keep pace with the complexity of modern B2B sales, leaving organizations dependent on outdated, manual forecasting methods.

The AI Sales Analytics Hub transforms forecasting into a strategic advantage by combining advanced AI sales strategy capabilities with real-time data intelligence. By analyzing historical performance, market signals, and buyer behavior patterns, the platform delivers forecast accuracy of up to 94%—nearly double the industry average. Sales leaders can proactively identify at-risk deals and optimize resource allocation weeks in advance.

Integrated AI Capabilities Driving Team Performance

The platform’s AI sales management capabilities enable personalized coaching, skill-gap identification, and rapid onboarding through AI sales team optimization. Early adopters report up to 34% improvement in individual performance and 28% faster onboarding timelines.

Its account intelligence platforms provide deep prospect insights, mapping decision-making processes, identifying key stakeholders, and integrating seamlessly with lead enrichment software. This intelligence accelerates deal velocity by delivering the context sales teams need to engage with precision.

Proven Impact Across Industries

A Fortune 500 technology leader achieved a 42% improvement in forecast accuracy within one quarter of deployment. A mid-market financial services firm shortened its sales cycle by 23% by leveraging the platform’s unified AI Sales capabilities.

Positioning for Revenue Intelligence Leadership

Industry analysts project that companies deploying integrated AI Sales Analytics solutions will outperform peers by 35% in revenue growth over the next three years. With continuous learning algorithms refining forecasts and adapting team strategies, the SalesPlay-powered hub positions B2B organizations for sustainable growth and lasting competitive advantage.

CGTN: ‘Dongji Rescue’: Humanity forged in blood and fire

'Dongji Rescue': Humanity forged in blood and fire

BEIJING, Aug. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The film “Dongji Rescue,” based on the 1942 sinking of the Japanese ship Lisbon Maru after it was torpedoed by American forces, is the moving story of Chinese fishermen from nearby Dongji Island courageously rescuing the over 1800 British POWs aboard the liner despite Japanese soldiers’ firing.

It’s not just a poignant look back at a forgotten chapter of history. “Dongji Rescue” embodies the principle that remembering history is not about perpetuating hatred, but about learning from it to safeguard peace.

When the Lisbon Maru sank, Japanese forces, instead of mounting a rescue effort, callously sealed the ship’s holds and fired upon the prisoners trying to escape.

In stark contrast to their brutality and callousness, the local Chinese fishermen, though suffering greatly under the war, showed their principle that “saving a life is a greater virtue than building a seven-storied pagoda.”

Risking their lives, they took their flimsy boats near the sinking ship to rescue hundreds of the POWs. This selfless, borderless act of compassion shone as a beacon in the darkness of war, highlighting the sense of responsibility and commitment of ordinary Chinese in times of crisis.

The film’s release is especially significant in today’s complex and volatile global landscape where some nations are still pursuing hegemonism and unilateralism in international affairs, and conflicts continue to erupt, threatening world peace.

Japan’s attitude toward historical issues remains deeply disappointing. Instead of acknowledging and atoning for its wartime aggression, it has been attempting to whitewash its history of invasion. Tokyo is distorting textbooks and justifying visits to the so-called Yasukuni Shrine, which actually commemorates over 1,000 convicted World War II war criminals. This is a desecration of historical truth and an insult to the nations Japan victimized.

As Guan Hu, director of “Dongji Rescue,” said, “Distorting and twisting history is more terrifying than forgetting it. I felt that I should tell everyone the truth through the film.”

Through the power of cinema, “Dongji Rescue” revives the memory of this true history, reminding us that history must not be forgotten, and certainly not falsified. We remember history not to perpetuate hatred or seek revenge against a particular nation but to draw lessons from it – to understand the preciousness of peace and to defend it more resolutely.

Many were unaware what happened on Dongji Island in the East China Sea during World War II and China’s role in the war. On the 80th anniversary of the War of Resistance, through films and reports, the world has learned how the Chinese fought invaders eight decades ago. These recollections bring to light the atrocities committed by Japan.

China will always be a builder of world peace and contributor to global development. By championing the vision of a community with a shared future for humanity, China contributes to global peace and development.

Eighty years ago, after 14 years of relentless war, the Chinese achieved their great victory in the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression along the victory of the World Anti-Fascist War. To mark the occasion, a batch of new films and television dramas remembering the war of resistance has been released to acclaim. The box-office earnings of “Dead to Rights” have crossed 2 billion yuan ($278.4 million).

“Dongji Rescue” is a film with profound insight and contemporary relevance. While commemorating history, it strengthens our resolve to uphold peace, inspires deeper reflection on history and aspiration for peace worldwide. It teaches us to unite, learn from history, and build a brighter future together.

Ready Player One: RZ Officially Launched a Fair-Play Blockchain Ecosystem Built on Gaming, Trust, and For the benefit of the people, Not Centralized Control

Dubai, UAE, Aug. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Ready Player One : (RZ) Saved the blockchain from the hands of centralized players — now the rise is inevitable —

In a world where the concepts of centralization, intermediaries, and financial complexity had cast a shadow over the crypto space, a single voice altered the path — it echoed across the global financial landscape and gave meaning to a name: RZ.

A man who built his name on four fundamental principles — innovation, trust, and real profit — stepped into the game. When he entered the field, he didn’t just revive the decentralized financial structure; he rewrote the crypto game in favor of the people.

Now everyone is on his team — and everyone will win.

First Principle: Saving the Blockchain from Centralized Hands — DEX

From the very beginning, RZ believed unwaveringly in decentralized exchanges (DEX), stating that “true trust in blockchain lies in the elimination of intermediaries.”

Accordingly, all of his tokens have only been listed on DEXs. No negotiation with CEX, no discounts for market makers.

Everything should be transparent, open, and fair — without discrimination, even for anonymous users. That’s how a blockchain must be.

Second Principle: Gaming is not just Entertainment, but a Financial Philosophy

For RZ, the world is a game.

He believes:

“If an economic concept is meant for the public, it must be designed like a game — understandable, enjoyable, and rewarding in reality.”

This belief is the foundation of his ecosystem — a combination of blockchain, gamification, and tokenization of businesses.

Everyone is a player, and through their activities in the game, they are profitable — not just investors.

Third Principle: When the Game is Fair, Everyone Wins

In the RZ world, there are no losers.

Why?

Because the game is designed in a way that even without financial literacy, without trading skills, without investment background — everyone can win.

His tokens are on a permanent path of growth.

He says:

“If only analysts benefit, then the ecosystem is not public.”

Unlike traditional markets, his tokens are backed by real fundamentals and purposeful liquidity — not artificial volatility.

There’s no pump and dump here.

This is what makes his market different from others.

Fourth Principle: Public Profit Since Day One

In the RZ ecosystem, growth and profit are not exclusive to those who “got in early.” Even if you enter today, you will see your investment grow.

Why?

Because all project income is injected back into the ecosystem as liquidity, enabling real development — not feeding previous investors.

He has repeatedly said:

“When a project profits, everyone profits — not just a specific group.”

Why Are RZ Tokens Always Rising?

✓ Limited supply with no Mint function

✓ Locked team and reserve wallets according to tokenomics

✓ No risky features like Mint or Blacklist

✓ Complete elimination of CEX manipulation

✓ Simple and transparent contracts

✓ Public and certified audits

✓ Ongoing liquidity growth in PancakeSwap pools

✓ And most importantly: trust in the RZ personal brand

A Quick Look at the Key Tokens of the RZ Ecosystem

MGC (MetaGamesCoin): https://metagamescoin.io

A gamified token rewarding gamers based on competitive global ranking and game activity


RZCoin: https://coin.rz.game

The core and native token of the ecosystem — used for payments, gas fees, and transaction management on the RZChain

Insurance Token: https://insurance.game

An innovative token for risk coverage aimed especially at new investors and DeFi participants; also usable in mining and gaming

Sectoral Tokens:

A collection of professional tokens for tokenizing physical assets and businesses in various sectors such as fashion, gold, jewelry, automobiles, etc.

Final Conclusion — The Game Has Changed, and the Rise Is Certain

The RZ ecosystem is not just another crypto project.

It is a movement to gamify the economy and democratize profitability.

Here, success doesn’t require you to be a trader or analyst — you just need to join the game.

Everyone wins,Together, with RZ.

Cherry AI Announces TGE, Powering Telegram’s Largest Crypto-Native AI Bot Ecosystem

With over 15 million users, Cherry AI’s ecosystem spans over 200,000 Telegram groups

Dubai, UAE, Aug. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cherry AI, the leading Web3 infrastructure layer built natively for Telegram, has announced that the TGE for its native utility token $CHERRY, is set to go live on August 14.

With over 15 million users, Cherry AI is the largest crypto-native bot platform on Telegram, providing AI-powered tools to help Web3 projects launch, grow, and engage their communities, directly where their users already are. Cherry’s ecosystem spans over 200,000 Telegram groups, with over 110,000 Web3 communities actively using its infrastructure, from trending bots to AI-enhanced raiding tools and gamified quests.

Cherry AI’s launchpad release in April was a huge success, with thousands of contributors joining the IDO on Cherry’s platform. Cherry’s telegram native bot has generated $5 million in on-chain revenue since late 2024, growing at 65% month-over-month. Its hybrid of data-rich tooling and hyper-scalable bot infrastructure gives it a unique advantage in driving Telegram-native Web3 growth, while the addition of new utilities is set to boost revenue generation in future. 50% of this revenue will go towards buyback and burns making the token extremely deflationary and valuable for users to invest early and hold long term.

While Telegram has become the de facto communication platform for crypto, the process of finding new tokens, managing growing chats, or making quick trades usually means juggling a range of tools while leaving the user vulnerable to nefarious front-running or scam activity. With Cherry, what used to take multiple tabs now takes a single slash command. Cherry’s AI scans on-chain and social signals within minutes of contract creation, surfacing early opportunities, while mods can scale communities from dozens to hundreds of thousands without hiring more people. Additionally, its built-in DEX routes trades across Solana, Ethereum, Base, and BNB Chain, while protecting users from MEV attacks.

The $CHERRY token is designed to reward active participants and fuel the Cherry AI ecosystem. Revenue from trending bots is used to buy back and burn tokens, reducing supply over time, while stakers earn a share of revenue from button ads and, for higher tiers, from Cherry’s popular raid bot. The tiered staking system unlocks bigger rewards and access to premium tools, while advertisers who pay in $CHERRY get discounts on their campaigns, creating real utility across the board.

“We are building AI-powered infrastructure to streamline on-chain operations and community coordination, with sustainable tools that solve real problems in the crypto space,” said Mohammad Ali Nasir, CEO of Cherry AI. “$CHERRY is the fuel for this growing ecosystem, rewarding the users, builders, and advertisers who power it.”

Cherry Sniper, the platform’s trading bot, has quickly become a standout success, recently reaching 10,000 active users. It’s the first bot on Telegram to offer two distinct trading modes: Sniper and Stealth. Sniper mode is all about speed and execution, giving traders lightning-fast entry tools, anti-rug protections, and gas optimization features. Stealth mode, on the other hand, prioritizes privacy and security, operating non-custodially so users retain full control of their funds at all times. Whether users are chasing fast entries or value privacy over speed, Cherry Sniper brings serious flexibility to Telegram-native trading.

Backed by early investors such as Moneylord, Overdose, Coinguru, TraderSZ, Wizz, Cherry AI is integrated or partnered with major names including NotCoin, Manta, Trojan, Maestro, bitcoin OS, LDA, and ChangeNow, creating a deeply connected Web3 tooling stack across the Telegram ecosystem.

About Cherry AI
Cherry AI provides an end-to-end stack of Telegram-native tools for community management, token discovery, and automated trading – built to support project teams, token launches, and user engagement in Web3-native environments. Its flagship product, Cherry Bot, is currently installed in over 200,000 Telegram groups and actively used by 110,000+ Web3 communities. It powers advanced buy bot alerts, moderation, raid tools, group portals, and real-time community analytics.

KUKE Music Partners with Global Classical Music Giant Naxos to Launch “Music LEGO Engine,” Reshaping Classical Music Future with AI, Blockchain and RWA

Beijing/Hong Kong, Aug. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — KUKE Music (NYSE: KUKE), a world-leading classical music content service provider, today announced a strategic collaboration with Naxos Music Group, the world’s largest independent classical music group. With a catalog of over 3 million audio tracks spanning more than 100 countries and regions, Naxos is the undisputed global leader in classical music. Under this partnership, Naxos will leverage its unparalleled content resources and service infrastructure to support KUKE Music’s exploration of artificial intelligence (AI) innovations, blockchain and RWA (Real World Assets) in classical music. The collaboration centers on building a blockchain- and AI-powered “Music LEGO Engine” designed to fundamentally revolutionize the creation, rights verification, application, and value circulation of musical content. Within the compliance framework, tokenizing the company’s music copyright assets as RWA.

Building the “Music LEGO Engine”: Modular Copyright Drives Tech Revolution

The core initiative—dubbed the “Music LEGO Engine”—will deeply structure and modularize KUKE Music and Naxos’ vast, authoritative global classical music catalog. Copyright elements (e.g., melody fragments, harmonic structures, orchestration combinations, performance styles) will be deconstructed into standardized, independently identifiable, licensable, and combinable “modules,” akin to LEGO bricks. This innovative framework will serve as critical infrastructure for future AI training and copyright monetization:

Validating Core Capabilities: The project will test KUKE Music’s ability to integrate structured copyright data and complex technical collaboration, laying groundwork for future tech-driven products.

Redefining Internal Synergy: It will establish a new paradigm for efficient collaboration between musicians and AI teams, bridging content-technology gaps and fueling organizational innovation.

Foundational for Future Growth: The Engine will underpin KUKE and Naxos’ upcoming AI-powered music creation/analysis tools and blockchain-based copyright monetization products (e.g., NFTs, financialized copyright trading), providing scalable content and operational models.

Naxos Music Platform: Blockchain Backbone for the LEGO Engine

The Naxos Music Platform (NMP), the blockchain backbone of this collaboration, will empower the “Music LEGO Engine” with robust rights verification, traceability, and value distribution. Naxos’ global content network and user base will directly serve KUKE Music’s blockchain strategy through the NMP platform:

Rights Verification & Traceability: Each music asset (including “LEGO modules”) receives a unique, immutable NFT-based copyright certificate on-chain, recording creator, licensor, and holder history to enhance enforcement and reduce disputes.

Fair & Sustainable Ecosystem:

Transparency: Smart contracts automate royalty/licensing distribution, replacing opaque legacy systems with auditable on-chain execution.

Fan-Driven Economy: NFT holders (fans/investors) share revenue based on contributions (e.g., plays), fostering a value-aligned community.

Global Payments: Platform tokens enable borderless settlement, eliminating currency barriers.

Sustainable Loop: Integrated tokenomics (payments, profit-sharing, buyback/burn) and NFT mechanisms drive long-term growth.

Building a self-sustaining growth mechanism for long-term development
The financialization interface and global reach of the “Music LEGO Engine”: NMP’s mature NFT royalty-sharing system and transparent on-chain revenue distribution mechanisms provide an ideal testing ground for the licensing, combinatorial valuation, and fractional financial investment of “Music LEGO Modules.” Modular copyrights enable finer-grained, more flexible transactions and value capture on NMP. Crucially, by leveraging Naxos’ extensive network spanning over 100 countries and regions, its massive user base, and its vast copyright catalog (which exclusively supplies core modular materials for the project’s initial phase), KUKE Music’s “LEGO Engine” and blockchain financialization initiatives will gain unprecedented global market access and content support. All global content and services from Naxos will be integrated into and dedicated to serving this innovative project under KUKE Music as a listed company.

Future Roadmap: AI, Blockchain and RWA in Concert

Beyond infrastructure, KUKE and Naxos have defined clear expansion paths through the Music Lego engine and Naxos Music Platform:

  1. AI-Driven Creation and Commercialization:
    The modular classical music “Music LEGO Modules” will serve as premium training data for professional AI models, enabling practical applications such as AI-assisted composition, intelligent orchestration, and stylized music generation. Simultaneously, the Naxos Music Platform (NMP) will facilitate on-chain rights verification and automated royalty distribution for AI-generated works.
  2. Open Creator Ecosystem: NMP will open to independent musicians (especially classical) to upload, modularize, and mint NFT-based works, accessing global markets via the Naxos-KUKE network.
  3. Innovative Fan Engagement: Combining the flexibility of the “Lego” module with a global fan base, “Fan blind boxes” (containing rare music snippets/rights) and limited NFT albums will deepen artist-fan connections.
  4. Copyright Monetization: Exploring the possibility of tokenizing “LEGO modules” for staking, lending, or portfolio investment will unlock new financial potential and leverage the AI technology for KUKE’s global assets. Within the compliance framework, tokenizing the company’s music copyright assets as RWA.

About KUKE Music (NYSE: KUKE)
KUKE Music is a global leader in classical music licensing and subscription services. With a vast premium catalog, it promotes classical music culture through tech innovation. Its next-gen blockchain streaming platform uses decentralized technology, smart contracts, and NFTs to build a transparent, fair, and sustainable music economy.

About Naxos Music Group
Naxos Music Group is the world’s largest independent classical music label, with over 3 million tracks and operations in 100+ countries.

Allesin Launches Smart Motorized Honeycomb Shades for Modern, Energy-Efficient Living

NEW YORK, Aug. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Allesin, a brand dedicated to smart shading solutions for the U.S. market, has introduced its newest release— Allesin Prestige Motorized Honeycomb Shades. True to their motto, “Your Light, Your Way,” Allesin’s smart shades give users simple, flexible control over natural light. Designed with a sleek cordless look and whisper-quiet motor, the shades combine style and function. The no-drill installation works for both renters and homeowners—no tools, no wall damage, just a simple setup. Their honeycomb structure provides insulation—keeping rooms cooler in summer, warmer in winter, and quieter year-round. With added energy savings and multiple control options—including remote, app, and voice—these shades deliver convenience for modern living.

Why the Allesin Honeycomb Collection Stands Out?

Whether you’re a homeowner or a renter, the Allesin Motorized Honeycomb Shades checks all the right boxes. If you’re comparing honeycomb shades and blinds, the Allesin smart shades are worth a closer look. For homeowners and renters exploring Allesin, it offers smart insulation, noise reduction, and light control—making it a stylish, energy-efficient upgrade for everyday living.

Allesin Motorized Honeycomb Shades

Improved Temperature Control Year-Round

These Allesin motorized honeycomb shades work like a thermal blanket for the windows. Their layered design traps air in small pockets, effectively blocking outside heat in the summer and retaining warmth in winter. From living rooms to kitchens, the shades help maintain indoor comfort—without the need to constantly adjust the thermostat.

Noise Reduction for a Calmer Home

For those living near traffic or noisy environments, the honeycomb structure significantly reduces ambient sounds. It helps transform bedrooms into sleep sanctuaries and home offices into productivity zones. For anyone comparing honeycomb shades and blinds, the sound-dampening effect here is a major bonus.

Softer Sunlight, Less Glare

The layered design also helps diffuse direct sunlight. Instead of harsh rays bouncing off screens and surfaces, the light is softened for a naturally lit, glare-free environment. It is a good choice for home offices and common areas. This light-filtering feature enhances comfort without compromising brightness.

Hassle-Free Setup, Kid-Friendly Design

Allesin motorized honeycomb shades offer a 5s quick setup

The no-drill mounting system is especially appealing to renters or homeowners looking to avoid permanent wall damage. Shades can be installed in a matter of 5 seconds. No tools, no holes, no wall damage. For those who prioritize easy installation without compromising on function, this approach offers a practical solution.
One of the standout features of the Allesin motorized honeycomb shades is its cordless, no-drill setup. No cords means no tangles—and more importantly, no safety risks for homes with curious kids or overly enthusiastic pets. The cordless design keeps things sleek, simple, and stress-free.

Smart Control, Minus the Fuss

Unlike many overcomplicated “smart” gadgets, Allesin motorized honeycomb shades are built to be simple and reliable. Whether users prefer using a handheld remote, voice commands via Alexa or Google, or controlling everything through an app, the shades adapt easily to individual routines.
Control stays flexible—tap a phone, press a button, or just say it out loud. Voice commands via Alexa or Google make everyday control effortless. The scheduled control is equally smooth: set them to open with the sunrise or close at bedtime, no extra thinking required. It’s automation that works—and fits into your day without being a distraction.

Green Shades, Lower Bills

Allesin motorized honeycomb shades:Energy Efficient and Low Maintenance

Eco-friendly doesn’t have to mean high-maintenance. The Allesin motorized honeycomb shades combine energy efficiency with everyday practicality. Their layered structure helps regulate indoor temperatures—blocking heat in summer and retaining warmth in winter—so HVAC systems don’t have to work overtime.

For sunnier spaces, there’s an added bonus: an optional solar panel that powers the shades without the need for constant recharging or nearby outlets. It’s a convenient upgrade for sunrooms, upper-floor bedrooms, or anywhere that sees strong afternoon sun.

Compared to traditional blinds, these honeycomb shades offer a smarter, more sustainable way to stay comfortable—and potentially save on energy bills in the process.

Style, Light, and the Perfect Fit

Shades aren’t just functional—they’re part of the room’s vibe. The Allesin motorized honeycomb shades come in a range of premium fabrics to match any vibe, from clean modern lines to cozy cottagecore charm. Light control is just as customizable. Blackout shades are ideal for bedrooms or home theaters, while light-filtering styles gently diffuse daylight—perfect for living rooms, kitchens, or home offices.
The fit? Always just right. Allesin offers custom sizes to match any window. Inside mount for a clean look. Outside mount to cover uneven frames. No awkward gaps. No “almost” fits. Allesin makes it easy to get that just-right look—without the hassle of standard sizes that don’t quite cut it. From blackout styles to motorized honeycomb shades, there’s a fit for every space and lighting need.

Where Allesin Smart Shades Shine

Before and after using Allesin Motorized Honeycomb Shades

Allesin Motorized Honeycomb Shades aren’t just smart—they’re versatile. Here’s where they really make a difference:

  • Bedrooms: Block out light and noise for deeper, uninterrupted sleep. Great for night owls, early risers, and light-sensitive sleepers.
  • Living Rooms & Home Theaters: Turn movie night into a real cinematic experience with blackout fabric that cuts glare and boosts contrast.
  • Home Offices: Filter sunlight, reduce screen glare, and stay focused—without turning your workspace into a cave.
  • Rentals & Short-Term Stays: No tools, no holes, no drama. Perfect for renters who want privacy and style without losing the deposit.

Cyabra Launches Brand & Entertainment Council with Industry Leaders to Combat AI-Generated Disinformation

New York, NY, Aug. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cyabra Strategy Ltd.  (“Cyabra”), the AI-powered platform for real-time disinformation detection, today announced the formation of the Cyabra Brand & Entertainment Council, featuring high-profile industry leaders including Jonny Bentwood (President of Data & Analytics at Golin), Mike G (Partner and Talent Agent at United Talent Agency), David Wander (Chief Digital Officer at Roc Nation), and Arthur Stark (former President of Bed Bath & Beyond). This new advisory panel unites experts from communications, analytics, and the entertainment space, to help Cyabra combat the escalating spread of social media disinformation.

The Council will provide strategic guidance to Cyabra’s team and partners, advising on how to strengthen solutions against such threats. The goal is to keep Cyabra and the wider industry a step ahead of these evolving attacks.

“The threat of digital impersonation and manipulated content has never been more serious for our artists and their fans,” said Mike G, Senior Partner at United Talent Agency. “Protecting artist reputations and maintaining authentic fan connections requires sophisticated detection capabilities and strategic guidance. This Council represents a crucial step forward in safeguarding the integrity of entertainment and ensuring that genuine creative expression isn’t overshadowed by digital deception.”

Launched at a pivotal moment, the Council is working with Cyabra to combat the wave of false narratives, fake accounts, and AI-generated “deepfake” content spreading across social media platforms. When disinformation moves at the speed of social, one deepfake can hurt a career, and one post amplified by fake accounts can cause brand perception to collapse overnight. Cyabra’s tools are designed to protect authenticity in an age where anyone, and anything, can be digitally weaponized.

Cyabra specializes in identifying online disinformation and monitoring emerging threats, enabling brands and public figures to safeguard their reputations. By detecting these malicious activities in real time, Cyabra empowers their customers to act on threats to brand reputation and keep online discourse authentic.

As Cyabra continues to innovate in disinformation defense, the Brand & Entertainment Council will play a long-term role in shaping industry standards for digital trust. Members will collaborate on ethical guidelines for AI, promote awareness, and inform the development of next-generation authenticity tools.

“The industry is witnessing a flood of AI-driven disinformation that can deceive audiences in seconds,” said Dan Brahmy, CEO and Co-founder of Cyabra. “By uniting Cyabra’s cutting-edge technology with industry expertise, we will help develop the standards and tools needed to safeguard authenticity across brands and the entertainment industry.”

Council Member Expertise

The Cyabra Brand & Entertainment Council, led by Cyabra’s CEO, Dan Brahmy, comprises distinguished industry leaders:

  • Jonny Bentwood, President of Data & Analytics at Golin (an IPG company), where he leads global communications strategies that transform data into actionable intelligence.
  • Mike G, Partner and Talent Agent at United Talent Agency. Representing a diverse roster of multi-genre superstars including Lil Wayne, the Kid LAROI, and Cardi B, he provides frontline perspective on talent protection.
  • Arthur Stark, Former President of Bed Bath & Beyond, brings extensive retail and brand management experience to address corporate reputation challenges in digital spaces.
  • David Wander, Chief Digital Officer at Roc Nation, brings music, sports, entertainment, industry digital strategy and platform expertise.

The formation of the Council comes at a time when high-profile incidents of digital manipulation continue to proliferate. Recent examples include deepfake videos featuring celebrities like Tom Hanks and Scarlett Johansson appearing in unauthorized content, and AI-generated music tracks that convincingly mimic artists without their consent. Global brands such as Starbucks have recently been targeted by disinformation campaigns involving fake executive announcements, coordinated calls for boycotts, and market manipulation. These tactics have led to real-world consequences such as stock volatility, public backlash, and reputational harm.

Cyabra has entered into a business combination agreement with Trailblazer Merger Corporation I (NASDAQ: TBMC), a blank-check special-purpose acquisition company.
