Today’s Column- The AI Eye- Watching stock news, deal tracker and advancements in artificial intelligence

Stocks discussed: (NYSE:ACN) (NasdaqGS:MSFT) (NasdaqGS:LOGM)

Accenture (NYSE:ACN) is teaming with Microsoft (NasdaqGS:MSFT) to help entrepreneurs maximize social impact and sustainability. Specifically, the collaboration will pair Microsoft Research India with Accenture Labs, leveraging the former’s Center for Societal impact through Cloud and Artificial Intelligence (SCAI), to “focus on the areas of agriculture, education and healthcare,” initially engaging “with startups in Africa, the Middle East and South Asia.” Paul Daugherty, group chief executive-Technology and chief technology officer at Accenture, commented:

"Our experience shows that by applying emerging technologies to critical challenges facing society, we can accelerate social transformation. This collaboration is a great illustration of delivering on ‘value’ and ‘values’ — creating tangible business and social value while aligning with people’s values. By providing social impact entrepreneurs with direct access to the combined power of Accenture and Microsoft’s technology expertise, we can help significantly improve access, equality, inclusion, education, health, sustainability, and the environment."

LogMeIn, Inc. (NasdaqGS:LOGM) has announced enhancements to its AI-powered Bold360 customer engagement suite that will provide “improved real-time guidance and knowledge management tools to agents.” The improved suite includes: the Dynamic Customer Information Card, which shows agents real-time customer activity, Agent Statistics to spur internal motivation and improve agent performance, and Visitor Blocking, which allows agents to “stop communication with customers that conduct themselves improperly.” Ryan Lester, Senior Director of Customer Engagement Technologies at LogMeIn, explained:

“Agents know what makes customers happy, but they need better tools to deliver that experience and data to show them how to improve. With these Bold360 updates we’re able to empower agents with data: both the data they need to better serve customers and the data they need step up their own performance. The end result is greater productivity and, therefore, greater happiness among customers and agents.”


Global Deep Learning Market Could Grow $7.2 Billion from 2020-2024

A report from Technavio finds that the global Deep Learning market has the potential to grow by $7.2 billion from 2020 to 2024 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of nearly 45 percent. An excerpt from the report snapshot outlines key drivers and trends anticipated:

Deep learning is popularly used in machine learning, which involves the use of artificial neural networks with several degrees of layers. Moreover, each of these layers has a certain degree of functionality and is mainly used for representing vast amounts of data to ease the process of decision making. Furthermore, the application of deep learning-powered applications widens as massive volumes of digital data are produced at an unprecedented rate across industries. Additionally, the increase in funding in the field of deep learning has encouraged several start-ups to apply this technology across a wide range of industry verticals. For instance, fraud detection, visual recognition, logistics, insurance, and agriculture are some of the application areas of deep learning. Therefore, the increasing number of startups, coupled with the widening application of deep learning, will drive the growth of the global deep learning market during the forecast period.

#Defense #Stock News: A2Z Technologies (TSXV: $AZ.V) Lists on Frankfurt Stock Exchange; @A2Z_Advanced

#Defense #Stock News: A2Z Technologies (TSXV: $AZ.V) Lists on Frankfurt Stock Exchange; @A2Z_Advanced


Vancouver, BC - March 4, 2020 (Investorideas.com Newswire, Homelanddefensestocks.com) A2Z Technologies Canada Corp. ("A2Z" or the "Company") (TSXV:AZ.V) (FSE:A23.F) announced today the listing of the Company's shares on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (FSE) under the symbol A23.


"The Frankfurt Stock Exchange is a highly recognized exchange, and we view this as being very beneficial to further creating shareholder value. Having a Frankfurt listing presence increases our exposure and investor reach and serves as a base for doing business in Germany and throughout the member states of the European Union," stated Mr. Bentsur Joseph, A2Z's Chief Executive Officer.

"As we look to further build the Company's revenue, sign additional deals, and grow our business with the revolutionary, life-saving FTICS system in the Automobile Industry, increasing the German and European investor base that is focused on our Company is a very positive development," further stated Mr. Joseph.

About A2Z
A2Z Technologies Canada Corp. is an innovative technology company based out of Israel, specializing in military technology and expanding into the civilian markets. A2Z has been operating for over 30 years and has a client base with 75 recurring clients, including the Israel Defense Forces, Security Forces, and Ministry of Defense among others. A2Z plans to leverage their cash flow-generating core-business to expand into the civilian robotics and automobile markets.

According to Zion Market Research, the Military Robotics space is expected to reach $53.93B by 2027 for a projected CAGR of 13.5%. (Summary of Report)

Highlights:
Core Business: A2Z's line of products include unmanned remote-controlled vehicles of various sizes designed for intricate bomb disposal, counter terrorism, and fire fighting, as well as energy storage power packs/generators. A2Z also provides maintenance services to both external and in-house complex electronic systems and products to over 75 clients.
A2Z has been an Israel Ministry of Defense contractor for over 30 years and a significant portion of its business is long-term service contracts.

Expansion into Civilian Markets: To drive growth, A2Z plans to adapt its military technologies for the much larger civilian markets. One patent-pending product is a capsule (FTICS) that prevents vehicle fires resulting from collisions. A2Z has also been granted a patent for a smart vehicle cover device that protects automobiles from natural elements while the vehicle is parked and is stowed away safely in the vehicle's bumper when not in use.

Fuel Tank Inertia Containment System (FTICS): In the event of a collision, the FTICS installed into the fuel tank prevents the ignition of fuel, thereby mitigating the spread of fire and explosion, minimizing risk to human life and property damage. According to the NFPA, from 2014 to 2016, an estimated 171,500 highway vehicle fires occurred in the United States, resulting in an annual average of 345 deaths, 1,300 injuries, and $1.1 billion in property loss annually.

A full video explainer of the FTICS technology can be found here: https://vimeo.com/385098839

Management: CEO Bentsur Joseph's previous venture, Comfy Interactive, was acquired by Shamrock Holdings, the family investment firm founded by Roy Disney. Previously, Bentsur Joseph was the chairman of Elad Hotels whose holdings include the Plaza Hotel in New York City.

Bentsur Joseph has a ~64% ownership stake in the business with 30,000,000 shares subject to an escrow agreement.

Today’s Column- The AI Eye- Watching stock news, deal tracker and advancements in artificial intelligence

Stocks discussed: (NYSE:IBM) (NYSE:INFY) (EPA:ALBFR)

IBM (NYSE:IBM) has announced a global alliance with digital services and consulting provider Infosys Limited (NYSE:INFY) to “help enterprises accelerate their digital transformation journey using the IBM public cloud.” This alliance will allow Infosys to “offer its clients services around IBM's cloud native and open technologies, such as AI, blockchain, analytics and more.” Ravi Kumar Singisetti, President, Infosys, commented:

"Enterprises cannot truly succeed at digital transformation without leveraging cloud - be it transforming processes, expanding into new markets, launching new products, automating operations or elevating customer experience, cloud is the true enabler to complete digital transformation. But enterprises, especially in highly regulated and data sensitive industries are worried about privacy, regulatory compliance, security and system downtime as they embark on this transformation journey. Our collaboration with IBM will help enterprises across industries address these concerns and accelerate their digital transformation journey on IBM public cloud."

At an event celebrating its UK expansion and the opening of a Tech Hub in Birmingham, AI firm Sidetrade SA (EPA:ALBFR) announced its intention to invest some £30 million ($38.48 million USD) in AI by 2025. The investment plan will focus on R&D, innovation and tech skills, and “builds on Sidetrade’s solid expertise in areas such as machine learning, natural language processing and automated business processes.” Julian David, techUK CEO, who attended the Tech Hub opening, commented:

“The UK is a global leader in Artificial Intelligence. It is home to start-ups and scale-ups developing innovative AI applications across many sectors from healthcare to finance. The UK is also leading the way in working to find solutions to the challenges of bias and transparency in algorithmic decision-making, as well as how we can use emerging technology to provide positive outcomes for our society and economy, and tackle major issues such as climate change. We are pleased to see Sidetrade will be joining us on this path. Its investment is a sure sign that the UK, and Birmingham in particular, is an attractive place for AI businesses who are ambitious to scale and make a difference to innovation, business, and jobs.”

Global AIaaS to Grow by $15.14 Billion from 2020-2024

A report from Technavio finds that the global Artificial Intelligence-as-a-Service (AIaaS) market is projected to grow by $15.14 billion with a compound annual growth rate of more than 48 percent from 2020 to 2024. An excerpt from the report snapshot outlines key drivers in the market:

The use of advanced infrastructure at a reduced cost will be one of the primary factors driving AIaaS market growth. The development of AI requires high investments in hardware like software and sensors, maintenance, and repair costs. The software also needs to be upgraded frequently to meet the changing environmental needs. To avoid these direct costs in the implementation and maintenance of AI, enterprises are preferring to outsource these tasks to AIaaS providers, thereby driving artificial intelligence-as-a-service market growth.
The use of AIaaS for human interaction with machines using natural language processing (NLP) is one of the key artificial intelligence-as-a-service market trends. This technology is growing rapidly, driven by the growing human-to-machine interactions and availability of powerful computing and big data. Its applications include customer service chatbots and virtual assistants. For these applications, enterprises can use AlaaS and pay only for the time NLP was used. This will lead to an increase in the adoption of AlaaS during the forecast period. As a result of these factors, the market will register a CAGR of over 48% during the forecast period.
