This event will be led by space scientists Tara Ruttley, Metavisionaries’ Director of Sciences (former associate chief scientist at NASA), and James Green, ISU’s Core Co-Chair, & former Chief Scientist of NASA. They will guide participants through a hands-on activity in Técnico Superior Técnico, Portugal, where SSP is taking place.
Metavisionaries aims to bring access to the space economy and frontier technologies through web3 to democratize education and provide global, interdisciplinary, and immersive learning opportunities to learners around the globe.
This is the beginning of a partnership that will gather educators, scientists, and industry experts to deliver interdisciplinary curricula and prepare students for the future of work, which is closely aligned with SSP’s philosophy. The SSP is an intensive two-month program hosted every year. It offers participants a unique and comprehensive professional development experience, covering all aspects of space programs and enterprises.
Wasim Ahmed, CEO for Metavisionaries, explained that the pandemic accelerated the rate of technology adoption in the education sector. Web 3.0 and the Metaverse are paving the way for education to be reimagined. In that sense, the partnership with ISU showcases the university's determination to play a leading role in shaping and enabling the transformation to prepare future generations for the future of work.
This immersive activity will allow the ISU to enter the world of the metaverse and provide learning in a way that participants have never experienced before. Following this activity ISU, Metavisionaries & Ice Cubes will share more details about joining the College of Business and Economics at Qatar University to launch a global business sustainability space challenge related to the FIFA World Cup.

Starlink’s global broadband service depends on processing and routing large volumes of real-time data, including inter-satellite optical link traffic, orbital mesh routing decisions, adaptive beam steering, and the high-throughput downlink required to serve its customers. The X2 delivers 12.8 Tbps of switching capacity using state-of-the-art 100G SerDes and TSMC’s N5 process, providing a power-efficient, ultra-low-
Payments Leaders Unprepared for 2026 Disruption, Warns ACI Worldwide11.12.2025 14:36:00 EET | Press release
Most global payments leaders lack a clear roadmap to navigate the seismic changes coming in 2026 , according to the latest Top Ten Payments Predictions from ACI Worldwide (NASDAQ: ACIW), an original innovator in global payments technology. With AI-driven intelligence, next-gen authentication, new regulatory frameworks, and soaring demand for instant, embedded, and secure payments, the industry is entering an era of structural disruption. However, ACI’s recent report Payments in Transition: Leadership in an era of transformation reveals that only 36% of payments executives have a clear long-term modernization roadmap, leaving many without a strategic vision for transformation. “In 2026, payments disruption won’t be incremental—it will be structural,” said Philip Bruno, Chief Strategy and Growth Officer at ACI Worldwide. “Real-time is now the baseline, digital assets are entering regulated ecosystems, and AI is transforming every layer of the value chain.
