SAN FRANCISCO, July 9, 2024 /CNW/ — SEMI today announced its inaugural Midwestern U.S. event, SEMIEXPO In The Heartland, during SEMICON West 2024. Scheduled to debut April 1-2, 2025, at the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis, the new annual event will feature discussions on the deployment of smart manufacturing tools, technologies, and methods supporting the creation of semiconductors, as well as gather stakeholders in the semiconductor, sensor, and mobility ecosystems to address technical issues and supply chain dynamics.

During the opening of SEMICON West, Joe Stockunas, President of SEMI Americas, commended Eric Holcomb, Governor of Indiana, as well as the Applied Research Institute, the Indiana Economic Development Corporation, Purdue University, and Visit Indy, for their partnership and support in bringing the event to Indianapolis.

“With growing activity for both automotive electronics and smart manufacturing in the Midwestern region, SEMIEXPO In The Heartland will provide a key opportunity for collaboration,” said Stockunas. “These are important end markets that are advancing the semiconductor industry on the path to $1 trillion in annual revenue, and we’re excited to kick off our inaugural event in Indianapolis.”

SEMI selected Indianapolis as the event location due to its strong local communities for both automotive electronics and smart manufacturing, in addition to its proximity to Purdue University and its robust pipeline of semiconductor engineering talent.

Indiana’s economy is experiencing serious positive momentum. We’ve spent decades cultivating the industries and economies of the future and I’m so grateful leaders like SEMI continue to take notice,” said Gov. Holcomb. “I couldn’t be prouder of the way Indiana has answered the call to support U.S. innovation and growth in the semiconductor industry. As our leadership role continues to expand, Indiana will be centrally involved in solving the myriad of challenges that lie ahead by advancing the key innovations that will power the world around us. Bringing the semiconductor industry to the Midwest for this inaugural event will further showcase our advanced manufacturing leadership and position Hoosiers and our shared economy for even more industrial growth opportunities.”

SEMIEXPO In The Heartland will feature participation from the SEMI communities for its Smart Mobility initiative, which brings together microelectronics stakeholders and the automotive and broader mobility ecosystems to address technical issues and supply chain dynamics, and its Smart Manufacturing initiative that helps microelectronics manufacturers accelerate Industry 4.0 technology deployment. SEMI will announce additional details on exhibiting and speaking at SEMIEXPO In The Heartland, and on sponsoring and attending, leading up to the event.

MISSION, Kan., Nov. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — (Family Features) Many people would agree the holidays are one of the happiest times of the year – but also one of the most stressful. Replace the stress with smiles by cooking easy, delicious dinners that can help make the season a breeze and bring a little holiday happiness to mealtime.

Spend less time in the kitchen and more time with family by turning to easy-to-prepare potato recipes that can make the whole family happy.

For example, when you’re busy trying to cook multiple things at once, free up precious oven real estate while saving time with these Herby Holiday Air Fryer Little Potatoes. For a busy weeknight during the holiday season, potato dishes like this one can be made in an air fryer and customized with a few of your favorite pantry staples. If you don’t have fresh herbs on hand, dried will do the trick.

This recipe and many others can be streamlined with Little Potatoes, which come pre-washed, are small enough they don’t need to be cut and are a fresh, whole food grown on family farms so you can feel good about serving them to your loved ones.

Remember, easy can still be fabulous and festive. This Warm Winter Potato Salad with Cranberries offers the best of both worlds as it comes together in around 7 minutes with seasonal pops of red and green.

This family-friendly side features A Little Roasted Garlic, Rosemary & Thyme Microwave Ready Little Potatoes that simply need to be steamed in the microwave for 5 minutes then tossed with the included seasoning pack – no boiling or peeling required. It’s truly a holiday shortcut, and you can make the recipe even easier by using store-bought honey mustard vinaigrette if you’re short on time to make it from scratch.

The Hashgraph Association Partners with Blockchain for Energy to Strengthen Carbon Emissions Management for the Energy Sector

Published

on

By

Built by Blockchain for Energy, B4Ecarbon has revolutionized emissions management in the energy sector, providing decentralized solutions for increased transparency and accountability.

ZUG, Switzerland, Nov. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Today, The Hashgraph Association (THA), a Swiss-based organization and leader in digital innovation, announced its collaboration with Blockchain for Energy (B4E), a leader in decentralized digital solutions for the energy sector. This partnership aims to enhance efficient, traceable, and transparent transactions built on a decentralized energy ecosystem. As part of the collaboration, THA will expand its Hashgraph Enterprise Grant Program (HEP) to include Blockchain for Energy’s emissions management solution, B4ECarbon, which leverages Hedera’s DLT to drive transformations in the energy sector. 

The Hashgraph Enterprise Grant Program (HEP) is designed to accelerate the development and deployment of enterprise use cases on the Hedera network.

B4ECarbon is the energy industry’s first comprehensive emissions management solution, leveraging blockchain, artificial intelligence, and IoT systems. This decentralized AIoT design model addresses the urgent need for accurate, transparent, and verifiable emissions-related data.

The solution provides an intelligent and highly-secure digital framework for data-driven verification processes of ecological claims, aligning with regulatory bodies and capital markets. The B4E Carbon solution offers industry-wide support, including Oil and Gas, CCUS, and Geothermal Energy.

B4ECarbon leverages the power of Hedera, Hashgraph’s advanced distributed ledger technology, and the Guardian open-source platform. This creates a secure, traceable, auditable, and efficient decentralized infrastructure for data management and transparency. Hedera’s DLT, artificial intelligence, and IoT systems make B4ECarbon the new standard for digitally measuring, reporting, and verifying emissions claims. By combining AIoT with DLT technology, the platform enables operational efficiency, improves data quality and transparency, and strengthens overall management and analytics, reducing the risk of greenwashing and fraud. 

Notable B4E representatives include global and international firms in the energy sector, such as Chevron, ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips, Repsol, Chesapeake Energy, Devon Energy, Schlumberger, and Enovate AI.

The tokenization inherent in B4ECarbon champions data integrity and interoperability by adhering to the frameworks and standards set forth by the Interworking Alliance (IWA). B4ECarbon representatives are actively engaged with the IWA to foster the further development of IWA frameworks. 

Speaking on the importance of The Hashgraph Enterprise Program (HEP), Kamal Youssefi, President of The Hashgraph Association, stated, “At The Hashgraph Association, we are proud to continue supporting companies that deliver environmentally sustainable solutions in an innovative and compliant way. The B4ECarbon platform fits perfectly into our Hashgraph Enterprise Grant Program and overall mission, providing an intelligent and secure digital framework for validating environmental claims. This comprehensive emissions management solution serves industries such as oil and gas, geothermal, and hydrogen.”

Speaking on the benefits of the collaboration, Rebecca Hofmann, Founder and President of Blockchain for Energy, said, “We are very excited to be working with The Hashgraph Association, combining our in-depth industry expertise with THA’s substantial technical resources. Together, leveraging Hedera DLT, we are providing energy companies and leaders with a robust solution for producing high-quality, transparent, and immutable emissions-related data. This not only eliminates the potential for greenwashing and fraud but also prevents double counting in emissions claims.”
