BOSTON and FREIBURG, Germany and LONDON and DUBAI, United Arab Emirates and SINGAPORE and SYDNEY, Nov. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Jedox, the world’s most adaptable planning and performance management solution, was named a Leader in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Financial Planning Software. Jedox was recognized by independent analyst firm Gartner, based on its completeness of vision and ability to execute.

Jedox AI-powered solutions accelerate finance transformation with effective planning, budgeting, forecasting and analysis.

Jedox solutions, built with JedoxAI technology designed for global finance leaders, provide faster access to accurate information so organizations can operate efficiently and uncover new opportunities that increase revenue. The platform connects real-time operational and financial data through hyperautomation to automatically create a replica or “digital twin” of a business so leaders can model any scenario, plan, budget and forecast effectively, and make sound decisions.

Over the last five years, before AI became mainstream, CFOs used Jedox AIssisted™ planning wizards to understand future demand and predict customer churn through AI-enhanced forecasts. Today JedoxAI is a digital business partner to finance leaders by summarizing complex financial information and providing a catalyst to ad hoc reporting through Gen AI natural language interrogation of data within the Jedox platform. Use cases include applying Gen AI to draft management commentary on forecasted business performance or summarize long-range plans based on key drivers of performance.

“We’re thrilled to be named a Leader in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Financial Planning Software,” said Florian Winterstein, CEO of Jedox. “We believe it reflects the confidence our 2,800 customers and global partner ecosystem place in Jedox. Through our AI-powered solutions for planning, budgeting, forecasting and analysis, organizations are accelerating their digital transformation from siloed processes to collaborative integrated business planning, outperforming their goals, and achieving greater business value.”

As most people understand Microsoft Excel, they quickly master the Jedox platform and its drag-and-drop management reporting and dashboarding. This simplifies adoption and change management within the office of finance and allows for better and faster transformation consistent with the way people like to work. Capturing ad hoc insights within dashboards and formatted financial and tabular views of budgets, forecasts, and plans enables companies to understand their drivers and focus effective performance management.

“Our R&D, engineering, and product development engine plans to deliver even more enterprise-ready applications of predictive analytics and Gen AI to the office of finance,” said Dr. Rolf Gegenmantel, Chief Product Officer of Jedox. “We’ve listened to the market through a global series of Jedox Elevate roadshows and customer roundtables. From this listening tour, our roadmap was shaped towards building more pre-built functional use case templates we call Best Practice Accelerators. We want our customers to increase collaboration, so they deepen their understanding of connections between financial and operational planning, and performance management, to further support autonomous finance operations and heightened value creation.”

2024 will end with record revenue for Jedox, high customer satisfaction and best-in-class retention rates, and global customer growth in diverse industries on six continents including Tony’s Chocolonely, Li&Fung, Schaeffler, Saudi Aramco, Deutsche Telekom, Henkell & Freixenet, and Sandvik.

January 11, 2025

Docking Drawer, the leader in in-drawer outlet solutions, is set to showcase its newly configured Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages at the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) in Las Vegas this February 2025.

SAN RAMON, Calif., Jan. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Docking Drawer’s Unwavering Dedication to Safety

“At Docking Drawer, we’re not just creating products; we’re setting new standards for safety and functionality.”

When it comes to safety, no one in the industry matches the focus and innovation of Docking Drawer. Their Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages bring a unique, forward-thinking solution to an often-overlooked area in kitchen design. These safety outlets automatically de-energize an appliance garage power source when the cabinet door is closed, ensuring that appliances are safely powered off when contained inside the cabinet.

Docking Drawer is also the only company dedicated to creating in-cabinet electrical solutions that meet the strict code requirements of the Canadian marketplace. Their Safety Interlock Outlets are designed to make in-cabinet electricity compliant in Canada while offering consumers in all regions an additional layer of safety for in-cabinet power.

Advanced Limit Switch Technology

Docking Drawer’s Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages utilize an advanced Limit Switch system, designed to work seamlessly with power outlets concealed by a cabinet door. This intuitive feature detects when the cabinet door is closed, instantly cutting power to the connected outlet and all powered appliances.

Now Compatible with Any Appliance Garage Door

An updated Limit Switch feature now offers different switch options to accommodate all appliance garage door types, including traditional cabinet doors, pocket door setups, and more. The newly designed Limit Switch now offers two functions to choose from:

Power Off When Limit Switch is Depressed: This state is ideal for traditional cabinet doors, where closing the door depresses the switch to cut power safely.Power On When Limit Switch is Depressed: This state is perfect for pocket doors, where the door being pushed back upon opening activates the switch, turning the power on.

Customizable Connectivity

The flexibility of Docking Drawer’s solutions also allows for connecting multiple limit switches to a single safety outlet or vice versa, offering customization options to adapt to the unique demands of any project.

“At Docking Drawer, we’re not just creating products; we’re setting new standards for safety and functionality,” states Scott Dickey, founder of Docking Drawer. “Our Safety Interlock Outlets represent the culmination of our dedication to innovation and empowering homeowners and professionals with safer, more organized spaces—even beyond the kitchen and bathroom.”

Join Us at KBIS 2025

Don’t miss the opportunity to experience the future of kitchen safety. Visit Docking Drawer at KBIS 2025 in Las Vegas this February to see firsthand how their Safety Interlock Outlets are revolutionizing appliance garage safety.

Development of an International Critical Minerals FrameworkEstablishment of Centers of Excellence to build capacity in sustainability (Morocco), talent development (South Africa), and technology innovation (Saudi Arabia).Advancements in Certification Systems to ensure responsible mineral sourcing.

His Excellency Khalid Al-Mudaifer, the Vice-Minister for Mining Affairs of Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources, emphasizes that, “The meeting is an important step towards achieving sustainable development in the minerals sector globally. It is an ideal platform for delivering solutions, developing legislation on best practices in the field of sustainable mining, and exploring ways to invest in mining projects to achieve economic and social development in producing countries.”

Joining him are high-profile leaders, including ministers from supplier and financing like Brazil, South Africa, DRC, India, Egypt, Italy, Nigeria, Qatar, Pakistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Malaysia, Thailand, Morocco, Indonesia, France, USA and the United Kingdom, discussing opportunities for global cooperation.

“This year, discussions will seek to enhance collaboration between governments, industry, and communities to drive more investment in minerals, and development through value addition in supplier countries. We want to support the pressing need for sustainable mining practices, resilient supply chains, and value-driven partnerships in the minerals industry.”

Importantly, the outcomes of the Ministerial Roundtable are not confined to the event itself but form an ongoing, year-round program. Regional Coordination Groups will continue to drive the implementation of key initiatives.

“FMF is emerging as the largest global hub for minerals collaboration and action – no other platform brings together government ministers and senior industry leaders at this scale.” Al-Mudaifer concluded.
