Experian Brings Trusted Agentic AI to Financial Services With the Launch of Agent Operating System™2.6.2026 16:05:00 EEST | Press release
Experian today announces the launch of the Agent Operating System™, a trusted agentic AI layer within the Experian Ascend Platform, unveiled at Money20/20 Europe. The Experian Agent Operating System is designed to help financial services organisations move successfully beyond AI experimentation and safely scale agentic AI to transform decision-making, customer experiences, and day-to-day operations. It enables AI agents from Experian, clients and partners to work together through a common trust, semantic and orchestration layer, supported by clear controls, auditability and human oversight. The launch comes as financial services firms accelerate investment in AI but continue to face major barriers to scaling adoption. New Experian research* shows that nearly half of global organisations (48%), say integrating data into AI workflows remains difficult, while a third cite poor data lineage and a further third say data is siloed across teams and systems. At the same time, consumers are inc
High Q Technologies and Creative Biostructure Announce Strategic Partnership Expanding Global Access to Quantum-Enabled EPR Spectroscopy2.6.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Press release
High Q Technologies, a developer of quantum-enabled electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy systems, and Creative Biostructure, a structural biology Contract Research Organization, today announced a strategic partnership to support broader adoption of EPR spectroscopy for studying protein dynamics in pharmaceutical and biotechnology research. EPR spectroscopy is increasingly relevant as drug discovery turns toward disordered, flexible, and disease‑relevant protein systems that cannot be fully understood through static structural methods alone. However, broad adoption of EPR has historically been limited by instrument and workflow complexity, and the need for dedicated technical expertise in experimental design and data interpretation. Leveraging quantum sensor technology, FATHOM® EPR has overcome these challenges. By providing unique measurements of long‑range distances, FATHOM® EPR enables researchers to probe conformational ensembles and molecular motion implicated in toda

New Tacton Research Reveals Only 7% of Manufacturers Have Achieved End-to-End Value Chain Connectivity2.6.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Press release
Tacton, a global leader in Configure, Price, Quote (CPQ) solutions for manufacturers of complex, highly configurable products, today released its annual State of Manufacturing report, revealing that rising product complexity is exposing critical cross-functional gaps despite continued investment in digital transformation and AI. Based on a survey of 280 manufacturing leaders in eight countries, the research found that 67% now describe their products as “very” or “extremely” complex, a 20-point increase in just one year. At the same time, only 7% use the same product configuration rules across every team and system involved in selling and building products, which is critical for reducing margin risk because of siloed functions and data. The report highlights a growing industry reality: while digital transformation has modernized operations, rising complexity is exposing disconnects between systems, team, and data throughout the manufacturing lifecycle.
