Vimeo’s new AI-powered video hub, Vimeo Central, unlocks a video-first strategy for enterprise

Published

on

Distributed teams, buried knowledge, and security and compliance risks amplify the need for video management that’s centralized, easily accessible, and actionable.

NEW YORK, Feb. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Vimeo, the world’s most innovative video experience platform, today announced the launch of Vimeo Central, a secure, AI-powered video hub. Designed for business leaders and their teams, Vimeo Central empowers employees to communicate through video, extract actionable insights from a centralized source of truth, and become a more connected and productive organization.

Why it matters: Video communication is becoming the dominant medium for company-wide communication. This shift has resulted in the fragmentation of crucial information hidden within the archives of one-off meeting recordings, obscured in town hall replays, and buried within video walkthroughs. The decentralization of knowledge across disjointed workplace tools has made it challenging for employees to find and share relevant information, leading to poor collaboration, low employee engagement, and decreased productivity. Additionally, valuable knowledge is confined in videos that are currently one-dimensional and not engaging.

IDC Analyst Marci Maddox: “Video has tremendous value, both as a communication medium and a continuous knowledge source. IDC research shows that organizations today are targeting video for team collaboration and employee engagement with the goal to improve productivity. These companies need a secure, centralized video hub to assist employees in their daily tasks and tap into the collective knowledge only possible at scale with AI-powered video tools.”

Vimeo [interim] CEO Adam Gross: “In today’s distributed work era, effective team collaboration and employee engagement carries new urgency. Companies like Whole Foods, eBay, and Zuora are already using Vimeo Central because they’re prioritizing how they help their employees create, find, and share knowledge across their teams through the unique power and possibility that video provides. With Vimeo Central, companies of all sizes can become video-first organizations.”

Key features of Vimeo Central include:

Video Library – an enhanced Video Library featuring integrations with Zoom, Webex, Google Drive, Dropbox, and Box for ease of upload, advanced search, and embedding videosVimeo AI – AI-powered tools that allow you to automatically condense hours of video into a short highlight reel, generate video details and text-based summaries, and ask the video any question to get to that exact moment in the recordingCapture – a recording studio with a built-in teleprompter; a new editor to polish your message; and collaboration tools and integrations to help drive a more connected workflowEvents – a highly engaging viewing experience, Venues, designed to promote audience interaction and foster employee connectionAnalytics – team-level analytics to understand who watched and for how long, and a robust API to generate a holistic picture of how employees engage

Vimeo Customer Tien Tzuo, CEO of Zuora: “Video is core to how we run Zuora – how we engage employees, collaborate across teams, and connect with customers. Vimeo gives us a centralized suite that makes our asset library and editing tools easily accessible to all our employees – enabling us to become a video-ready enterprise.”

Vimeo Partner Connie Wu, head of business development at Asana: “We are excited to continue our partnership with Vimeo and bring video into Asana workflows, streamlining the way teams work across multiple tools. Video is important to how teams communicate in a hybrid world, and our integrated product experience enables organizations to collaborate more effectively by capturing video recordings directly within our platform.”

MediSun Energy and EMSTEEL Launch UAE’s First Pilot to Transform Desalination Brine into Blue Energy and Magnesium Carbonate

Published

on

By

SINGAPORE, May 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — MediSun Energy, a Singapore-based integrated brine management company, has partnered with EMSTEEL (ADX: EMSTEEL) (“the Group”), one of the largest publicly traded steel and building materials manufacturers in the region, to launch Project Elixir — the UAE’s first pilot system that transforms desalination brine into renewable blue energy and magnesium carbonate. This groundbreaking initiative introduces a circular model that converts industrial waste into clean energy and sustainable materials, aligning with the UAE’s goals for innovation, decarbonization, and resource efficiency.

The project is supported by an AED 100 million R&D fund launched by ADQ, an active sovereign investor with a focus on critical infrastructure and global supply chains, in 2022. The fund forms part of ADQ Growth Lab, a community of innovators across ADQ’s portfolio that realises the company’s commitment to accelerating innovation and R&D with a focus on unlocking growth opportunities and driving value creation and sustainability across priority sectors of the UAE’s economy.

The pilot will be installed at EMSTEEL’s steel business unit in Abu Dhabi, where MediSun Energy will deploy two integrated systems. The WEGen RED system treats 500 cubic meters of desalination brine per day, generating “blue energy” while consuming less power than conventional processes. The WEGen Green Pilot processes 30 cubic meters of brine daily, captures carbon dioxide, and produces up to 300 kg of magnesium carbonate (MgCO₃) per day — a low-carbon alternative to traditional additives used in steelmaking.

By combining carbon capture and energy recovery, Project Elixir transforms desalination brine — typically treated as waste — into a valuable resource. The recovered magnesium carbonate will be trialed as a sustainable substitute for dololime in EMSTEEL’s electric arc furnace (EAF), supporting the company’s efforts to reduce emissions and advance green steel production.

Eng. Saeed Ghumran Al Remeithi, Group CEO of EMSTEEL, said: “This collaboration with MediSun Energy marks a significant step in redefining industrial sustainability. The ability to convert desalination brine into clean energy and valuable materials directly supports our decarbonization strategy and aligns with national objectives for circularity and innovation. Project Elixir reflects EMSTEEL’s commitment to advancing green steel production while reinforcing the UAE’s leadership in industrial transformation.”

Dusun Kim, CEO of MediSun Energy, said: “This pilot represents a breakthrough for industrial sustainability in the UAE. By turning brine waste into clean power and green materials, we’re demonstrating a circular model for the future of steelmaking. We’re proud to partner with EMSTEEL on this historic initiative.”

Scheduled for installation in mid-2025, the pilot will be implemented without disrupting existing operations. MediSun will lead engineering, installation, and operations, supported on-site by EMSTEEL and Emirates Electrical & Instrumentation Company (EEIC), which will assist with local assembly and integration.
