SPAS representatives boarded the crypto express to the world of digital assets at the Bybit headquarters, sharing unique perspectives as educators and first-hand insights from Liu at the frontier of the digital economy.

“We are proud to welcome the SPAS family to Bybit’s headquarters, and we hope this will become the starting point of SPAS students’ blockchain journey. The value of blockchain education is not only giving students a headstart in understanding the digital economy, but also to inspire them to think about changing the world for the better with a powerful technology that will one day be entirely at their disposal,” said Helen Liu, COO of Bybit.

“It is a great honor for Saint Paul International School to establish a meaningful partnership with Bybit, a global leader in blockchain technology. This visit to Bybit’s headquarters in Dubai was more than just a meeting; it was a precious opportunity to build a foundation of deep mutual trust,” said Ryan Kim, Head of SPAS. “Bybit’s warm-hearted commitment to providing scholarships for Saint Paul International School students and planning continuous social contribution programs deeply moved us all. We firmly believe that, with its sincere vision and values, Bybit will continue to shine as a world-leading company,” he said.

The SPAS delegation toured the Bybit Crypto Ark Experience Store, a new venue at Bybit’s Dubai headquarters that showcases blockchain innovation and provides an open space for crypto collaborations. Since opening, the store has attracted hundreds of visitors, entrepreneurs, and crypto enthusiasts contributing to the regional ecosystem.

Established in 2015, SPAS operates four campuses across Korea’s major metropolitan areas and is recognized as a leading American educational institution with full accreditation from multiple organizations.

Google Cloud AI Helps Formula E in Groundbreaking ‘Mountain Recharge’ Energy Feat

Published

GENBETA car completes Monaco E-Prix lap powered solely by regenerative braking after AI-planned mountain descent; the feat was filmed and produced by Red Bull Media House

MONTE CARLO, Monaco and LONDON, May 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — In a daring demonstration enabled by Google Cloud’s AI capabilities, Formula E successfully charged its GENBETA prototype race car using only regenerative braking during a 1,000-vertical-meter mountain descent – generating enough energy to complete a full lap of the iconic Circuit de Monaco. Leveraging the Gemini API via Google AI Studio, Formula E planned the optimal “Mountain Recharge” route down a French alpine pass, analyzing data in real time to maximize energy recuperation.

The groundbreaking “Mountain Recharge” project, undertaken in collaboration with Google Cloud, Formula E’s Official Cloud Technology Services Partner and Official Cloud Security Partner, highlights the significant energy efficiency of Formula E vehicles. During races, the competing cars must regenerate approximately 40% of their required energy through braking. 

The challenge involved the GENBETA car descending the Col de Braus mountain road in “free-wheel mode”, starting with only minimal energy for system power-up. Driven by Formula E Test Driver James Rossiter, the car successfully generated the 1.6 to 2.0 kWh needed for the 3.337 km Monaco lap solely through gravity and optimized braking – equivalent to fully charging nearly 60 Google Pixel 9 Pro XL devices. The feat was filmed and produced by Red Bull Media House.

To determine the feasibility and plan the execution of the “Mountain Recharge” Formula E utilized several Google Cloud technologies:

Google AI Studio: The Gemini API via Google AI Studio was used to analyze the complex variables of the descent. The AI model helped identify and analyze optimal braking zones, calculate the impact of speed-to-weight ratios and gravitational forces, and refine driving angles to maximize energy regeneration.BigQuery: Google Cloud’s unified, serverless data to AI platform collected, stored, and analyzed real-time telemetry data transmitted from the car during the descent, providing crucial insights for verification and analysis.Firebase: Google Cloud’s application development platform, Firebase was used to rapidly build and host the intuitive dashboard application that allowed race engineers to visualize real-time car telemetry data from BigQuery on their Chromebooks and Pixel devices.NotebookLM: Google’s AI-powered research and writing assistant, NotebookLM, was used throughout the project lifecycle to consolidate technical specifications, logistical plans, and engineering data, streamlining collaboration between Formula E and Google Cloud teams.

Alex Aidan, VP Marketing, Formula E said: 

“This isn’t just another attention grabbing racing story – it’s a case study in how high-efficiency regeneration and cloud-based AI can revolutionise how we think about mobility, energy optimisation and sustainability. The challenge we faced illustrates the kind of real-world problems Google Cloud’s technology and that of our wider partner group can solve – whether it’s regenerative braking for road cars, dynamic route planning for delivery fleets, or efficient energy management in smart cities. It’s about developing technology that is designed to handle everyday circumstances and engineered to outrun. 

“At Formula E and with the GENBETA project, we’re all about pushing the boundaries of what’s possible and doing things others have never dreamed of. The way our partnership with Google Cloud has rapidly evolved and our longstanding relationship with ABB not only shows the potential for technology to transform racing, but how global brands are bringing their narratives and products to life through impactful collaboration.

Guillaume Roques, Senior Director, EMEA Marketing, Google Cloud said: “Google Cloud thrives on helping partners solve unique challenges with data and AI, and the ‘Mountain Recharge’ project is a fantastic demonstration of how AI can tackle complex, real-world challenges. Using our technologies, we were able to model the intricate physics of the descent and precisely calculate the regeneration potential. This isn’t just about race cars; it’s about how our AI capabilities can help any organization optimize for efficiency and sustainability by turning data into actionable insights.”

Annual feature celebrates graduating business students for achievement and influence

SAN FRANCISCO, May 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Poets&Quants, the leading news source for graduate business education, has released its 11th annual Best & Brightest MBAs feature, which honors 100 of the most accomplished full-time MBAs from the Class of 2025.

“This year’s class could be described as more female and more international, with a stronger military presence,” says Jeff Schmitt, Poets&Quants’ senior writer, who launched the series in 2015. “What really distinguished Best & Brightest students this year was that they built things. They launched ventures early in their careers or started clubs or events at their business schools. They weren’t trying to maintain what already existed or follow the usual paths. They were creating something new – and they provided others with enrichment and opportunities as a result.”

This 2025 class features MBA graduates including Wharton School’s Simi Shah, a successful entrepreneur who has been invited to the White House twice and made the 2025 Forbes “30 Under 30” in Media. Mark O’Connell, a graduate of the University of Michigan’s Ross School, helped re-write the U.S. Maines combat training curriculum – and Ohio State’s Kyle Schembechler did the same for the U.S. Field Artillery School. At the University of Virginia’s Darden School, Amanda Golden has transitioned from covering the 2020 presidential election for NBC News to becoming a venture capitalist. By the same token, Evan Rizvi made the leap from opera singer to strategist at Boston University’s Questrom School.

To compile this year’s Best & Brightest MBAs, Poets&Quants reached out to 82 top graduate business schools worldwide to nominate their best candidates for the honor. Responses were judged by P&Q editorial according to four criteria: extracurricular involvement, academic and professional achievements, insightful responses, and faculty recommendations. Ultimately, P&Q received 220 nominations, including submissions from elite institutions ranging from INSEAD to the University of Chicago’s Booth School. By gender, Best & Brightest women outnumber men by a 60-to-40 margin, with 54 students hailing from outside the United States. The Boston Consulting Group also hired 8 Best & Brightest MBAs from the Class of 2025, the most of any employer.

As part of this feature, each MBA receives an in-depth profile, which covers subjects ranging from their proudest achievement to their favorite business movie. Over the coming months, Best & Brightest will also spotlight the best student responses related topics like their favorite faculty members, biggest school myths, and most interesting school traditions. 

The “Best & Brightest MBAs” is the second of a four-part series recognizing the world’s top business students. In April, Poets&Quants For Undergrads unveiled its 100 Best & Brightest Undergraduate Business Majors of 2025. This summer, Poets&Quants will also recognize its “Best & Brightest Executive MBAs” and “Best & Brightest Online MBAs.” In the fall, P&Q will continue its “Meet the Class” series that highlights the top incoming full-time MBA students at over 40 top business schools.
