Gurobi Optimization, LLC, creator of the world’s fastest mathematical optimization solver, today announced the release of Gurobi Optimizer 9.5. This release provides customers with an even faster compute engine, with impressive performance improvements across all supported problem types.

Gurobi 9.5 also includes new features that make it well suited for enterprise use, including:

  • Seamless Docker Deployments: Run Gurobi in container environments, easily, with the Gurobi Web License Service (WLS).
  • User-Level Management: Manage users and assign permission levels in a centralized location, by integrating Gurobi Compute Server and Cluster Manager with LDAP repositories.
  • Better API Key Management: Label API keys with descriptive information in the Cluster Manager to simplify API key tracking and management.

Customers will discover over a dozen enhancements across the product, such as native support for Apple M1, powerful new heuristics for non-convex quadratic models, norm constraints, deterministic work measures, memory limit parameters, and more user control of IIS computation, as well as improvements to callbacks and tuning.

Pure Lithium Receives Australian Patent for "Lithium Metal Anode and Battery"6.8.2026 23:49:00 EEST | Press release

Pure Lithium Corporation, a vertically integrated next-generation lithium metal battery technology company, today announced that the Australian patent office has granted the company a patent (AU2025271196) titled “Lithium metal anode and battery.” Australia mines roughly half of the world’s lithium, yet has no domestic battery production at all; every battery the country uses is imported. The granted patent is directed to ways in which Pure Lithium’s technology can change that. Rather than trying to catch up in lithium-ion, Australia can leapfrog the incumbent technology and establish a next-generation industry. As worldwide demand for batteries grows, every country capable of making batteries needs to be making them. That is Pure Lithium’s central goal: opening up markets around the world through battery technology that enables local, independent supply chains, keeping pace with demand and strengthening economies. China controls the lithium-ion battery supply chain and manufactures th
