Published

on

LONDON, Feb. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — In a significant move for fintech, NayaOne announces a $4.7 million funding round led by EJF Capital, with Valley Ventures, the corporate venture capital arm of Valley Bank and Carthona Capital also on board. This investment is a testament to NayaOne’s growth and potential to transform financial services with its innovative sandbox-as-a-service platform.

 

 

NayaOne’s proven platform enables a radical reduction in technology adoption cycles within the finance sector.  Financial institutions can now swiftly navigate the fintech landscape, fostering partnerships that were once hindered by traditional, slow-moving processes. This is particularly relevant today, as a mere 5% of banks choose to develop tech in-house, highlighting the growing reliance on external fintech innovations for strategic advancements.

The timing of NayaOne’s platform aligns perfectly with the industry’s urgent shift towards digital transformation, offering flexibility and speed for revenue growth, customer retention, or crisis recovery.

Karan Jain, CEO of NayaOne, emphasises the significance of this funding round, it’s a nod to the opportunity and magnitude of the challenge we’re tackling in financial services. “It’s about more than just growth; it’s about setting the pace in a sector that’s fundamentally rethinking how it evolves”

Echoing Jain’s sentiment, EJF Ventures’ Michael Cherepnin points to the strategic inflection point: “We’re still in the early stage of a tech revolution in banking and capital markets, and NayaOne stands out as the critical infrastructure enabling the next big leap forward.”

Valley Ventures’ Managing Partner, Neal Kapur sheds light on the tangible edge NayaOne provides: “Our collaboration has dramatically streamlined how we vet fintech vendors, positioning us well ahead in the Digital Transformation and AI race.”

Dean Dorrell of Carthona Capital, reflecting on their early bet with this being their second round with NayaOne, adds, “Watching NayaOne’s journey from an early-stage hopeful to a fintech trailblazer has been nothing short of inspiring. This round is a launchpad for what’s next.”

With its latest funding, NayaOne is poised to redefine finance services. As everything moves to being digital first, NayaOne’s technology enables FIs to achieve their strategic outcomes by successfully navigating through the chaos and complexity of vendor technology.

Our Sandbox as a Service platform and marketplace of vetted Fintechs accelerates the adoption of emerging technologies and streamlines vendor collaboration.

By

Acculon Energy has announced a strategic partnership with HiNa Battery Technology Co. to bring HiNa’s sodium-ion (Na+) battery solutions to the U.S. market. This collaboration aims to replace traditional lead-acid systems in commercial and industrial applications with superior Na+ technology, offering improved safety, performance, and energy density. Acculon selected HiNa after rigorous testing of multiple suppliers, recognizing their Na+ technology as superior for data centers, grid modernization, and other critical markets.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Oct. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Acculon Energy, a leading U.S.-based developer and manufacturer of advanced battery systems, is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with HiNa Battery Technology Co., a global leader in sodium-ion (Na+) technology and cell manufacturing. This partnership marks a major step in bringing HiNa’s innovative Na+ battery solutions to the U.S. market as a part of Acculon’s energy storage solutions for commercial and industrial applications.

For the past two years, Acculon Energy has conducted extensive research and testing on the sodium-ion supply base. Using its world-renowned cell testing and validation facilities, Acculon has evaluated several suppliers and performed extensive comparative testing of cylindrical and prismatic formats. Acculon found that HiNa’s Na+ technology is one of the top performers in the field.

The alliance between Acculon and HiNa is focused on replacing traditional lead-acid battery systems, and the rapidly expanding stationary energy markets to support data centers and grid modernization, where safety, reliability, and performance are paramount. Na+ batteries offer distinct advantages over lead-acid, LFP, and NMC batteries, particularly in discharge and recharge times, cold temperature performance, and system energy density. Beyond these important characteristics, industrial and commercial markets are seeking Na+ technology to mitigate concerns about the intrinsic volatility of lithium-ion battery materials and supply chains.

The partnership will leverage Acculon Energy’s “safety beyond standards” philosophy, along with its proprietary CORE architecture, a chemistry-agnostic battery system that allows for maximum flexibility in both voltage and capacity, together with the best-in-class commercial Na+ battery cell HiNa is offering. Acculon’s wholly-owned Battery Management System (BMS) provides a ground-up solution optimized to provide reliability, safety, and performance in varied applications.

Additionally, Acculon’s battery modules and BMS are undergoing rigorous testing to meet UL standards, including listings for UL 2271, 2580, and 1973, ensuring that the highest levels of safety and performance are achieved.

“Our partnership with HiNa accelerates our mission to deliver the highest safety and lowest total cost of ownership products to our customers,” said Andrew Thomas, president of Acculon Energy. “Coupled with the GWh module manufacturing we are bringing online in Q1 and HiNa’s GWh cell capacity that’s up and running, our alliance gives US industrial markets access to safe, scalable Na+ products..”

“We are very excited to see this strategic alliance between HiNa and Acculon Energy to bring the better cost-performance, improved safety, and more sustainability than the most cutting-edge sodium-ion battery technologies are offering in the post-lithium era,” said Stan Sun, VP of HiNa Battery, “Through our partnership, we are more than confident and dedicated to continuously delivering the best-in-class and commercial-ready sodium-ion batteries and solutions to US market. “

Acculon Energy is currently accepting orders for its Na+ CORE components and is developing fully custom solutions as a result of the alliance. The partnership between Acculon and HiNa represents a major leap forward in the energy storage industry by delivering a better cost-performance, safer, and more sustainable alternative to legacy lead-acid and lithium-based battery technologies.
