State calls on Dallas residents to “swipe right” on settling down in Oklahoma

OKLAHOMA CITY, Feb. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — In a daring move that challenges traditional marketing, Oklahoma is infiltrating the digital dating scene with an innovative campaign concept to entice Dallas residents to “swipe right” on settling down in Oklahoma. That’s right – Oklahoma is popping up where you least expect it on Hinge and Bumble, ready to steal your heart and your zip code.

The campaign, developed by The Oklahoma Department of Commerce (Commerce), boasts an audacious strategy to leverage popular dating apps and showcase the unique charms of Oklahoma. The initiative, known as “Date Oklahoma,” sets out to persuade Dallas residents to consider Oklahoma as their new home.

And here’s the kicker – these aren’t your typical paid ads. These dating cards are legit. Imagine swiping right on your favorite dating app, and instead of another dinner date, you find a whole new future.

“We’re not just crashing the dating scene with this campaign, we’re also addressing a critical need in our economy,” Commerce Director of Marketing and Communications Becky Samples said. “While Oklahoma has a historical track record of low unemployment rates, our workforce still has more than 29,000 open roles across various industries to sustain and enhance the state’s robust economic growth. This initiative is about supporting Oklahoma businesses by inviting those who can make a significant impact on our workforce to settle down in our extraordinary and vibrant state.”

The campaign is designed to resonate with young adults on the cusp of significant life decisions — those eager for a mix of opportunity, affordability and vibrant living. Targeting young professionals and former Oklahomans considering a return home, the initiative finds its audience on popular dating apps like Bumble and Hinge, where settling down is a shared aspiration.

Through male and female profiles resembling typical dating cards, the initiative showcases the state’s impressive low cost of living, scenic views and more that contribute to increased quality of life. And rest assured, these profiles aren’t a catfishing attempt, but rather a transparent invitation to explore the possibility of starting the next chapter in Oklahoma.

Offering the nation’s ninth-shortest average commute to work, the state is leading in sectors like aerospace, film, energy and biotech, providing a wide array of career opportunities. In 2021 and 2022, interstate migration reached a decade-high, with nearly eight million people relocating. Oklahoma ranks ninth in the nation for net migration, indicating increased popularity in the ongoing urban sprawl. The “Date Oklahoma” initiative goes on to showcase the abundance of opportunities associated with “swiping right” and deciding to settle down in the Sooner State.

“Oklahoma is a place of growth and opportunity where innovation means tradition, where progress thrives alongside heritage and where everyone is welcome,” Samples continued. “There are so many reasons why Oklahoma is a great place to live. Not only do we have more affordable rent and housing prices than most of the country, but we also offer entertainment, career opportunities and so much more. With this out-of-the-box campaign, we will reach young Dallas individuals ready to settle down in our wonderful state.”

The campaign invites people to “Live the Flyover Life” and embrace the endless opportunities waiting for them in Oklahoma. The state is home to more than 500 museums, including the First Americans Museum, the Oklahoma Contemporary Arts Center and the Philbrook Museum of Art. For outdoor lovers, there are adventures in every corner, from Turner Falls to Robbers Cave State Park and more.

“Oklahoma is ready to welcome new residents with open arms,” Samples added. “We’re excited for Dallas residents to swipe right on Oklahoma and discover the rich fulfilling life that awaits them here. We encourage anyone that sees us on their dating app to take a screenshot and let us know on social media.”

(SZSE: 300502), a leading innovator and provider of advanced optical transceiver solutions, announces the release of its OSFP 1.6T DR8/DR8-2 and 2xFR4 transceivers enabling the next generation high bandwidth networks for AI/ML clusters and cloud datacenters.

Eoptolink 1.6T OSFP transceivers have 8 electrical host interfacing lanes and 8 optical lanes operating at 212.5Gb/s (106GB with PAM4). Equipped with the industry’s latest DSP, these modules support transmission distances of up to 2km without the need to regenerate the FEC. The 1.6T DR8 and DR8-2 modules comes with either one MPO-16 adapter for point-to-point (P2P) connections or two MPO-12 adapters for 2x800G breakout applications. The 1.6T 2xFR4 modules are designed with a dual duplex LC connector running with 2 pairs of fibers only, which could help users to save fiber resources compared to DR8 and DR8-2 versions.

The 1.6T DR8/DR8-2 and 2FR4 Portfolio consists of: – 

EOLO-13T-5H-XMX    OSFP 1.6T DR8, 1×1.6TbE, 500m, MPO-16
EOLO-13T-5H-XDX    OSFP 1.6T DR8, 2x800GbE, 500m, Dual MPO-12
EOLO-13T-02-XMX    OSFP 1.6T DR8-2, 1×1.6TbE, 2km, MPO-16
EOLO-13T-02-XDX     OSFP 1.6T DR8-2, 2x800GbE, 2km, Dual MPO-12

TULUFAN, China, Sept. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — On September 19, employees of State Grid Tulufan Electric Power Supply Company came to State Power Investment Zhongli Tenghui Qiquanhu Photovoltaic Power Station to provide comprehensive technical support and guidance for new energy enterprises.

Seven wind power and photovoltaic power generation enterprises, including Xinjiang Jize Power Generation Company in Tulufan, have obtained 6.035 million KWH of grid electricity by purchasing 6,035 “green certificates” to achieve “green electricity – green electricity” and achieve green energy use in the whole link of new energy power generation.

The green power certificate, referred to as “green certificate”, is the only certificate that identifies the production and consumption of renewable energy power. Promoting the all-green operation of new energy power generation is an important measure to promote the green consumption of renewable energy.

“Before, we were just ‘producers’ of green electricity. Now the buyers of green certificates have become green electricity consumers, and the production process is fully green.” Qiquan Lake photovoltaic power station inspection officer Forzati Dilishati said.

Since the launch of the green electricity and green certificate market, State Grid Tulufan Electric Power Supply Company has actively promoted green electricity trading, promoted the supply of green electricity and green certificates in multiple scenarios, promoted the rapid promotion and popularization of related services in Tulufan, and helped build a new power system.

In the first eight months of this year, the cumulative volume of green electricity transactions in Xinjiang reached 1.174 billion KWH, 93.83 times that of the whole year of 2022.
