Nouar Hamze, CEO of Allegro DVT, commented: “Although the AV2 codec specification was finalized only a few weeks ago, we are already seeing strong early demand worldwide. We have already delivered our AV2 D440 Decoder IP to three customers, underscoring our commitment to innovation and technology leadership.

Mentimeter Launches Three New Tools for Better Leadership23.9.2026 10:00:00 EEST | Press release
Mentimeter is launching an engagement suite with three new tools: Menti Live, Menti Form and Menti Pulse. Through interaction, insights and recommendations, the new suite enables organizations to engage people live, collect input asynchronously and track important signals over time. Today’s launch expands Mentimeter’s platform beyond live presentations, helping turn participation into new ways of understanding what people think, know and need. “Most organizations have plenty of data, but surprisingly little understanding of what their people actually think. These new tools give leaders a way to turn participation into company-wide performance – in the room, afterward and over time. That creates better input for action and, ultimately, better leadership,” says Johnny Warström, CEO and founder of Mentimeter. Three tools for different moments of engagement Menti Form collects input asynchronously. It allows for shared reflection and gives people the opportunity to contribute regardless of
