HELSINKI Turkish tech startups gathered to meet investors and innovation enthusiasts at this week’s Slush 2024 startup conference in Helsinki, Finland. Participants from more than 100 countries, including 400 from Türkiye, attended the event to represent their countries. The Turkish startup ecosystem demonstrated their competence to investors from all around the world in competitions to find opportunities to reach new markets and customers, attract investments, and develop business partnerships with international tech firms. More than 24 Turkish tech startups were present, including Apra Engineering, Archi's Academy, Bilbordia, From Your Eyes, Hardal, Hiwell, Invamar, Kfobi, Kimola, Mirai Technology, MOVE ON, Pardon, SmartIR, STAGE, Techsign, Tedaarik, Theclio, Tiplay, Wastespresso, Yuppy Games, Newky, Craftgate, and WASK. Turkish startups at the event introduced their products in artificial intelligence (AI), smart fabrics, fintech, video games and gaming technologies, education, digital health, sports, software, finance, and robotics. Thoufeeque Saheer, the founder of Archi’s Academy, told Anadolu that he had always wanted to establish a startup in a subject he knows and share his experience and knowledge with others. Saheer worked in software engineering in the US and moved to Türkiye in 2018 after marrying a Turkish person. Saheer said Türkiye offers many opportunities as a country with a young population. He said young people in Türkiye lack practical experience to get a job after getting a degree but his company’s education can help them with practical experience. His company is looking to expand to Europe and the US, as well as other regions down the line, he said. Rahsan Ilkay Yorulmaz, the founder of Arpa Engineering, told Anadolu that the firm installs smart systems in production stages, as well as creating “virtual engineers.” “We provide pioneering solutions in industry and we are quite ahead,” he said. Merve Aydiner, the founder of Invamar, which produces data-collecting smart fabric products, told Anadolu that the firm works on smart textiles which can read people’s health data at all times to monitor their ailments, and that the firm is showcasing its wares to the European market for the first time at the event. Aydiner said Invamar aims to become a unicorn in half a decade, meaning a startup worth $1 billion. Ali Ozan Ozcicek, founder of the online therapy platform Hiwell, told Anadolu that the firm came to the event to meet global investors as it aims to be one of the largest health technology firms in Europe in the next five years. Ozcicek said they offer psychotherapy services in eight countries via 1,500 psychologists, and the firm aims to add doctors to the platform in the days ahead. Hakan Erdogan, co-founder and CEO of the fintech startup Craftgate, told Anadolu that the firm’s goal is to meet other startups and investors at the event as they are expanding abroad for the first time by opening a branch in Spain, and want to expand to Latin America and Europe in the long term. Erdogan said Türkiye’s young population contains a lot of talent, urging young people to establish their own startups, especially in fintech. Slush 2024 started on Wednesday and ends on Thursday. *Writing by Emir Yildirim in Istanbul
Kingstone Companies' chief accounting officer sells $80,395 in stockSMU has plenty to play for when it closes the regular season against California on Saturday afternoon in Dallas. The Mustangs (10-1, 7-0 Atlantic Coast Conference), who checked in at No. 9 in the latest College Football Playoff rankings on Tuesday, would like to send their seniors off the right way. They would also like to complete a perfect regular season before appearing in the ACC title game in their first year in the conference. Most importantly, they want to continue to strengthen their playoff case. "You've got the College Football Playoff, so every game matters. That's what's so cool about it now. The regular season is important," SMU coach Rhett Lashlee said. "We'd like to finish well in everything we do, particularly on Saturday, to finish off the regular season, continue our momentum into the following week. Hopefully, continue to show the committee and others that we're worthy of continuing to play this year." The Mustangs are a worthy playoff team to date. Kevin Jennings has established himself as one of the top quarterbacks in the country, throwing for 2,521 yards with 17 touchdowns and seven interceptions. He also has rushed for 315 yards and four TDs. Brashard Smith has been another standout, rushing for 1,089 yards and 13 TDs. Defensively, the Mustangs rank tied for 14th in the country with 20 takeaways. "Obviously they've had a phenomenal season," Cal coach Justin Wilcox said of SMU. "As soon as you turn the tape on, it doesn't take very long to see why their record is what it is. They're very, very good really in every phase of the game - extremely explosive and quick and fast. They've got a dominant D-line. We've got a lot of challenges in front of us and our guys are excited for that." Cal (6-5, 2-5) is coming off an emotional win, defeating rival Stanford 24-21 on Saturday to secure a bowl berth. The Golden Bears will appear in consecutive bowls for the first time since 2018-19 and are now looking to clinch their first winning season since 2019. SMU is not overlooking Cal, as all five of the Golden Bears' losses have come by one score. "You'd be hard-pressed to find a better 6-5 team in America," Lashlee said. "I think you can conservatively say they very, very easily could be 9-2." Cal is led by quarterback Fernando Mendoza, who has thrown for 3,004 yards with 16 touchdowns and six interceptions. Tight end Jack Endries leads the team with 555 yards receiving, while wide receiver Nyziah Hunter has caught a team-leading five touchdowns. Defensively, Cal has the ACC's top scoring defense (20.7 points per game) and is tied with Clemson for the ACC's best turnover margin (plus-13). Defensive back Nohl Williams is the star of the group -- he leads the country with seven interceptions. Even though oddsmakers are heavily favoring SMU, Cal is going into the game with a simple mindset. "Our task at hand is to make the best bowl game right now," Mendoza said. "And the way to do that is to go into Dallas, give it our best and ruin SMU's season." Saturday will mark the first conference meeting between these ACC newcomers, and just the second meeting between the programs all time. SMU won a 13-6 game back in 1957. --Field Level MediaSmart Sensors Market Surge: From USD 58.2B in 2022 to USD 240.95B by 2031 11-27-2024 09:40 PM CET | IT, New Media & Software Press release from: SkyQuest Technology Group Smart Sensor Market Scope: Key Insights : Smart Sensors Market size was valued at USD 58.2 billion in 2022 and is poised to grow from USD 68.15 billion in 2023 to USD 240.95 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 17.10% during the forecast period (2024-2031).

It also carries what could be vast implications for the Trump administration's policies on issues including taxes and the regulation of artificial intelligence, not to mention clashing mightily with the notion that Trump's brand of populism is all about helping the working man. Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison. Photo / Getty Images The presence of the Silicon Valley crew during critical moments also reflects something larger. Silicon Valley was once seen as a Democratic stronghold, but the new generation of tech leaders – epitomised by Musk – often has a right-wing ideology and a sense that they have an opportunity now to shift the balance of power in favour of less-fettered entrepreneurship. Brian Hughes, a spokesperson for the presidential transition, said Trump and Musk are "great friends and brilliant leaders". "Elon Musk is a once-in-a-generation business leader, and our federal bureaucracy will certainly benefit from his ideas and efficiency," he said. This article is based on interviews with more than a dozen people with insight into the transition, including people who have participated in the process. Most spoke on condition of anonymity to preserve their relationships with Trump. Innovation and deregulation The tech leaders in Trump's orbit are pushing for deregulation of their industries and more innovative use of private sector technologies in the federal Government, especially the defence industry. About a dozen Musk allies took breaks from their businesses to serve as unofficial advisers to the Trump transition effort. Broadly, the group is pushing for less-onerous regulation of industries such as cryptocurrency and AI, a weaker Federal Trade Commission to allow for more deal-making and the privatisation of some government services to make Government more efficient.

This hidden iOS 18 feature could save your holiday road tripMétis society questions Indigenous heritage claims of Cloverdale-Langley City Liberal candidate
The vice-president of the Waceya Métis Society is publicly questioning Liberal candidate Madison Fleischer’s claimed Métis identity. Callum Robinson, VP for Waceya, whose office is located in Cloverdale, issued a that said the society was “disappointed” Fleischer was unable to “provide any evidence to substantiate her Métis heritage.” Fleischer is running as the Liberal Party candidate in the upcoming byelection for the riding of Cloverdale-Langley City. Fleischer has identified, publicly, as Métis. According to the statement, at a meeting held Nov. 23, Fleischer “was unable to substantiate her claims with any documentation or historical connections to Métis communities.” Robinson told the , “there were many inconsistencies in her story.” These included: “claimed correspondence with our president, which didn't exist; and “stated her great-grandmother from North Dakota as proof of Métis heritage.” He said the society is "distancing" itself from her claims of Métis identity. “We ask that (Fleischer) take the necessary steps to properly research and verify her Indigenous heritage before making any further public assertions," the statement continues. "The integrity of Métis identity is not to be taken lightly, especially in public office, where the representation of our community must be accurate, respectful, and legitimate.” In an emailed statement to the , Fleischer said she self-identifies as Métis because of what she knows about her great-grandmother’s heritage. “I am currently collecting the necessary documentation to go through the application process to receive Métis Nation British Columbia (MNBC) citizenship,” she wrote. “I have always been vocal about not yet holding MNBC citizenship, and I removed Métis from my social media bios to ensure there was no confusion in my identification.”On the Monday after a recent loss, Carolina Panthers guard Robert Hunt held a group of players captivated by his locker. The 6-foot-6, 323-pound lineman, who signed a five-year, $100-million deal in the offseason, wasn’t talking about football. He was telling a life story, one of many that make him the heart of the Panthers’ locker room. A Locker Room Favorite Rookie center Andrew Raym , whose locker is next to Hunt’s, couldn’t hide his admiration. “Robert is probably the greatest personality we have in here,” Raym said. “He’s nothing but love, nothing but happiness all the time. People love talking to him. He’s always got a smile on his face, always has something funny to say. “It’s always about us and hanging out with the crew.” Hunt’s vibrant personality has been a stabilizing force for the Panthers during a challenging 4-12 season. His leadership has helped young players like Raym and veterans like left tackle Ikem Ekwonu stay motivated through struggles. On-Field Impact Hunt’s arrival significantly improved the Panthers’ offensive line, which had been a major concern. Last season, quarterback Bryce Young was sacked an NFL-high 62 times. This year, that number has dropped to 24, thanks in large part to Hunt’s presence. “He loves the game,” said do-it-all lineman Brady Christensen . “You can tell by the way he plays, that energy and excitement. And we feed off of him. He’s one of the best guards in the NFL.” While Hunt has been dominant in the run game, there’s room for improvement in pass protection. The Panthers’ offensive line ranks last in pass block win rate, holding blocks for 2.5 seconds just 51% of the time. Hunt ranks 44th out of 64 guards in pass block win rate, a decline from his 2023 performance with the Miami Dolphins when he had the lowest pressure rate (1.3%) among guards. Ekwonu, the team’s left tackle, also ranks near the bottom in pass and run block win rate. Upgrades in the offseason, particularly at left tackle, could further solidify the line. Leadership Beyond the Field Hunt’s energy extends beyond his play. Offensive coordinator Brad Idzik praised his infectious enthusiasm, highlighting moments like Hunt celebrating downfield in Las Vegas or during Chuba Hubbard ’s big runs in Germany. “His energy,” Brad Idzik said. “It’s infectious. The plays you see, like [at Las] Vegas where he’s celebrating downfield ... in Germany he’s celebrating when Chuba is breaking free, that’s infectious. “You feel that in practice every day. He’s just loose and playing confident. ... And your personality comes through on tape.” Quarterback Bryce Young echoed the sentiment. “He represents somebody we want to be as an offense,” he said. “And he’s super cool to be around, funny to talk to.” “You can definitely see the non-verbal, the intensity he has, coming back saying little things like, ‘Let’s finish this,”’ Young said. “We all feel that energy, that intensity. We all play off that.” A Storyteller and Mentor Off the field, Hunt is known for his storytelling. Whether after a win or loss, he’s the same jovial presence, lifting spirits and keeping the team grounded. “I’m a good storyteller,” Hunt said with a grin. “I make you interested, reel you up, and then I give you the punchline. It may not be a good one, but I get you excited for it.” Hunt’s work ethic, however, is what inspires his teammates the most. “Being a dawg, being hungry in the run game, just working no matter what—that’s Rob,” said Hubbard, the NFL’s seventh-leading rusher with 1,195 yards. Ekwonu added, “That’s a little less obvious on the field, but it’s definitely cherished in the locker room. “He definitely keeps it light, and that’s always good. But he flips that switch when he’s on the field. It’s fun to watch.” No Regrets After the Dolphins made an offer Hunt felt undervalued his talent, he entered free agency. The Panthers moved quickly to sign him, addressing a glaring need after their guard-center combination allowed 35 sacks last season. Now 28, Hunt embraces his role as a veteran mentor and locker-room leader. He’s optimistic about the team’s future with Young developing into a franchise quarterback, but he remains focused on staying true to himself. “When I came here, I called one of my good friends that I look up to as a mentor,” Hunt said. “He’s like, ‘Just be you.’ And that’s what I’ve always done. If people gravitate to me, they do. If somebody thinks I’m some kind of different cat, they can think that. “But I’m gonna be me ’til the day I die.” This report used information from ESPN .
