GWI, the leading target audience insight company, today launches its brand-new platform that challenges the status quo in market research. The multi-million dollar investment into the new platform provides access to transformational insights, in a meaningful and visual way. Arming employees with one, consistent in-depth view of their global or local audience, the new capabilities power strategic decisions and enable deep understanding of diverse and evolving audiences.

The new platform makes it easy to be an expert on your audience with smart tools that make it simple to explore available datasets. Users are now able to rapidly access deep insights, answering the questions that matter most to make key business decisions based on facts they can trust. It aids businesses to be truly data-driven by putting accessible insights and bespoke dashboards into the hands of everyone across the organization - from decision makers in the C-suite to data analysts, researchers and marketers.

Tom Smith, CEO and Founder at GWI comments, “The new platform enables a new dawn for the future of marketing research, ensuring it is suited for today's environment which consists of rapid change of pace for business and consumers. Our data shows that 72%* of professionals globally agree that being able to adapt quickly is critical to their company’s long term success. Yet, the traditional market research industry has utterly failed the needs of its customers in today's global marketplace - a world where almost 5 billion people are permanently connected online. Uncovering really transformative insight isn’t easy, nor is it always ‘on time’. Traditional research often takes several months, and can be delayed throughout the process. Despite heavy investment, the insights can therefore quickly become outdated, whilst putting market research out of reach for nearly every single organisation.

“With our new platform combined with our tried and tested methodology, you can secure insights and answers in an instant versus a drawn out process, at a fraction of the traditional market research cost. At the same time, you can ensure organizational alignment, meaning everyone is working from a single source of truth - to tell the same story, inform the decisions that matter and deliver impactful results.”

The intuitive new platform provides access to the world’s largest harmonized ongoing study on digital consumers, representing 2 billion people globally. Users of the flagship survey, GWI Core, alone can gather insights from over 40,000 data points, from over 800,000 interviews. The new platform will foster smarter business decisions and outcomes using hyper-targeted insights into any consumer group, in local and global markets.

Octane AI Launches Phoenix, an AI Quiz Builder That Builds, Checks and Improves Quizzes for Shopify Brands21.10.2026 20:15:00 EEST | Press release

Octane AI, the quiz and zero-party data platform for Shopify brands, launched Phoenix in October, its biggest release to date. Merchants describe the quiz they want or upload what they already have, and Phoenix builds it, checks it, personalizes the results and keeps improving it with experiments. One beta customer turned a single document into a complete product-launch quiz: “I attached it to Phoenix, and it built the whole thing, all the pages. It understood everything, not just the text but the logic behind it.” Across all live Octane AI quizzes, 15% of shoppers who finish a quiz place an order. Yet building one has meant hours of writing rules by hand, custom code for design and clicking through every path to find broken results. Phoenix handles those hard parts, from building a quiz to improving it after launch. “Since day one, we've kept track of every piece of feedback from our merchants: what frustrates them and what they wish Octane AI could do. Phoenix is the result, and it k

Future Health and Bridge for Billions to Launch Programme Strengthening Health Entrepreneurship in Emerging Markets21.10.2026 18:50:00 EEST | Press release

Future Health – A Global Initiative by Abu Dhabi and Bridge for Billions will launch a new entrepreneurship programme designed to strengthen promising health ventures in emerging markets and help locally-developed solutions reach more people. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20261021719421/en/ The first phase of the programme will target around 50 entrepreneurs leading late-incubation to early-acceleration ventures in Africa and Asia. Emerging markets are home to significant health needs and entrepreneurial potential, yet many promising ventures can struggle to access the capital, specialist guidance, and health-system connections required to grow. WIPO’s Global Innovation Index 2024 reported that Latin America and Africa together accounted for around 3% of global venture-capital deals in the first half of 2024, while venture-capital values fell by 19% in Asia-Pacific and 80% in Africa.

Hephaestus Exits Stealth Having Raised $17.2M to Supply Rare-Earth-Free HTS Superconductors and Build Low-Cost Fusion Power21.10.2026 17:48:00 EEST | Press release

Hephaestus today emerged from stealth with solutions that address two of the largest cost drivers in fusion power: the high temperature superconducting (HTS) magnets that confine the plasma, and the edge-localized modes (ELMs – major plasma instabilities) that drive up the cost and complexity of conventional reactor designs. The company also announced the close of a new funding round led by CiRi Ventures. Hephaestus was founded in London in 2019 with a single mission – to help make fusion energy cheap enough to compete on the grid. Its AI plasma solver initially swept the full space of tokamak design parameters, unconstrained by the legacy designs and materials much of the industry is already committed to, and identified negative triangularity (NT), which inverts the D-shaped plasma used in most tokamaks, as the most likely configuration for low-cost fusion energy. Subsequent results from facilities worldwide, including the DIII-D, JET, and SMART, have shown that NT can deliver strong
