Cognite, a global leader in industrial software, today announced an extension of its long-term frame agreement with OMV, the international, integrated oil, gas, and chemicals company headquartered in Vienna/Austria. Leveraging Cognite's leading Industrial DataOps platform, Cognite Data Fusion ®, OMV will expand its digital transformation program, DigitUP, to also include a more robust Asset Performance Management (APM) solution, strengthening OMV's position as a global digital leader in the industry.

The collaboration will accelerate OMV's digital transformation and drive operational improvements that make the organization more effective and unlock data-driven business opportunities along the entire value chain.

Cognite Data Fusion® is an integrated part of OMV's enterprise architecture, and the platform is used to liberate and consolidate data of surface data domains. OMV has built several use cases and applications on top of this liberated data and can now easily scale up to physical assets. Cognite Data Fusion® is key to contextualizing data across OMV’s ecosystem to accelerate the development and adoption of digital applications.

Cognite Data Fusion® powers OMV's surface data hub and enables rapid scaling of digital solutions across assets in Austria, New Zealand, and Romania. The OMV and Cognite collaboration thus far has resulted in the deployment of solutions within both production and maintenance optimization leading to a reduction of time needed to plan the inspections by 50% and 6% deferment savings on production.

In the next phase of this long-term agreement, OMV will expand its APM capabilities to include integrity management, as well as integration with computerized maintenance management systems for integrated activity planning across different operations disciplines. This expansion of DigitUP will empower users in maintenance, inspection, operations, and sustainability roles with a robust suite of digital solutions to support their decision-making, reduce costs, and maximize asset performance.

"We are excited for the next phase of our collaboration with OMV. As asset performance management evolves from pure maintenance to a more holistic look at an operation's reliability and sustainability, the complexity of data, analysis, and digital solutions to support it also grows. OMV is tackling this challenge head-on, and we are proud to support their continued commitment to being a leader in digitalization in the industry," says Dr. John Markus Lervik, co-founder and Chief Strategy & Development Officer, Cognite.

Cox Capital Announces Tender Offers for Class I Shares of Blackstone Private Credit Fund and HPS Corporate Lending Fund23.9.2026 13:00:00 EEST | Press release

Cox Capital Partners (“Cox Capital”) announced today that Cox Capital Retail Secondaries Fund I, LP (the “Purchaser”), a private investment fund managed by an affiliate of Cox Capital, has commenced two separate cash tender offers to purchase Class I shares of Blackstone Private Credit Fund (“BCRED”) and HPS Corporate Lending Fund (“HLEND”). Both funds recently reported that their Q3 2026 repurchase programs were substantially oversubscribed. BCRED and HLEND received repurchase requests representing an estimated 10% and 11.5%, respectively, of shares outstanding. The funds’ established frameworks generally target quarterly repurchases of 5% of shares outstanding, although the amount may be increased at the discretion of the applicable fund. Cox Capital developed its secondary program to provide shareholders with an additional path to liquidity when a fund's own quarterly repurchase program does not satisfy their full request. The offers are independent of the target funds and do not mo

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
