NEW YORK, March 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Beyond Ordinary Events, Inc. and POSSIBLE, the premier marquee marketing event, announced today exclusive content that will debut at the 2024 event designed to drive awareness and conversation around cultural and social inclusivity in marketing. This programming will explore the changing social, economic, and demographic trends that have an impact on the future of marketing and how brands can effectively communicate with their audience.

This track will delve into how cultural intelligence can transform marketing strategies, drive businesses to new heights and empower marketers to adapt to changing consumer behaviors that resonate with Gen Z and beyond.

“This year, we aim to embrace the cultural richness of Miami combined with the unlimited creativity and inspiration of our industry community by welcoming diverse thought leaders and storytellers to POSSIBLE. Through our partnerships with Google, Group Black, TelevisaUnivision, Digilearning, She Runs It, and others, POSSIBLE will grow into a well-rounded, immersive event experience by bringing inclusive marketing pioneers to the forefront,” said Christian Muche, Co-Founder and CEO of Beyond Ordinary Events. “As POSSIBLE continues to grow, we want to ensure that representation, cultural diversity, unique perspectives and amplifying all voices remains a key pillar in our efforts.”

POSSIBLE takes place at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach on April 15-17. POSSIBLE is a tentpole event that brings together the most influential marketing and business leaders, as well as visionaries from technology, digital, media, entertainment, and culture.

The following partners will be a part of the discussion around inclusivity in marketing at POSSIBLE:

Built in partnership with Performance Paradigm, H:H breaks learning paradigms using experiential design to create and sustain behavior change focused specifically on navigating systems, behaviors, and the weight we carry in service of transformative human connection.

Through dedicated programming and partnerships, they will put a spotlight on the Latino community, showcasing the influence of la cultura during what has quickly become one of the preeminent events for our industry. Across music, sports, food, films and so much more, Latinos are front and center, and TelevisaUnivision’s goal is to help marketers meet the moment in reaching and more meaningfully connecting with this growing population.

Corgi Insurance Announces Artist Residency to Support Local Creatives at Corgi Cafe

Published

on

By

SAN FRANCISCO, July 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Corgi Insurance has announced the launch of its Artist Residency Program, a new initiative designed to support artists, illustrators, writers, photographers, filmmakers, and creators working at the intersection of technology and culture.

The residency will be based at Corgi Cafe, the company’s 24/7 community space in San Francisco built for founders, engineers, investors, and operators. Since opening, the cafe has become a home for hackathons, demo days, founder dinners, product launches, and late-night building sessions. With the residency, Corgi is expanding that community to include the creatives documenting, interpreting, and shaping this moment in technology.

Residents will receive workspace at the cafe’s central warehouse in San Francisco, featuring 30-foot ceilings, creative tools and materials, access to Corgi’s network of founders and builders, and opportunities to showcase their work through exhibitions, talks, installations, publications, and community events. The program gives artists proximity to the people and ideas driving technological change while bringing creative perspectives and storytelling into the startup ecosystem.

The launch reflects Corgi’s belief that the next generation of iconic technology companies will be built not only by engineers and operators, but also by writers, designers, filmmakers, and artists capable of translating complex ideas into culture.

“I fell in love with art and culture while working in crypto and digital art. Seeing creators flourish around community and new technology shaped me deeply, and that vision now lives on through Corgi Cafe,” said Trevor Owens, Head of Cafe at Corgi. “Some of the most important movements in digital art emerged not from institutions, but from people gathering in shared spaces, experimenting together, and supporting one another’s work. We want to bring that same ethos to Corgi Cafe. San Francisco has an incredible community of local artists, and the Artist Residency is our way of investing in the people documenting, interpreting, and shaping this moment in technology and culture.”

The Artist Residency is an effort to make Corgi Cafe a place not only where companies are built, but where culture around technology is created. Applications for the inaugural Corgi Artist Residency are now open. Local artists interested in joining San Francisco’s builder community and creating work alongside founders, engineers, and operators can apply today. The residency will launch in San Francisco before expanding to additional Corgi Cafe locations across the country. Apply here: corgicafe.com/residency

Infobip research reveals APAC businesses scaling AI-powered defenses to counter surge in automated fraud

Fraudsters are leveraging AI to automate and personalize attacks, but enterprises are fighting back

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, July 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — New research from global AI-first cloud communications platform Infobip reveals a growing surge in AI-powered fraud and enterprise defenses. Analyzing billions of interactions globally, Infobip’s 2026 Fraud & Security Report highlights a year of dramatic contrasts. There have been record volumes of blocked fraudulent traffic alongside the rapid scaling of intelligent, AI-powered defenses.

The report reveals that while fraudsters are using AI to scale and personalize harmful messaging, leading to a 77% increase in detected threats, businesses are responding in kind. Adoption of AI-powered fraud detection grew by 71% year-on-year, while pattern-based detection increased by 105%, underscoring a shift toward adaptive security.

Matija Ražem, Chief Commercial Telecom Officer at Infobip, said: “Fraudsters are using AI to automate and scale campaigns faster than ever, but AI-powered protection is evolving just as fast. The significant growth in AI-driven detection proves that leading organizations are no longer treating security as an afterthought, they are building it directly into their communication infrastructure.”

The report also highlights distinct fraud trends emerging across the Asia Pacific region.

Across APAC, enterprises are navigating an increasingly complex fraud environment as digital engagement and mobile-first banking continue to accelerate. At the network level, APAC is among the most technologically advanced regions based on Infobip data. Operator firewalls are highly automated, while mature AI-powered detection models can identify and block most threats without human intervention.

At the enterprise level, however, OTP-based fraud remains a significant challenge in several key markets. Certain territories continue to record elevated suspicious authentication rates, indicating structural fraud patterns rather than isolated campaigns.

Regulatory scrutiny is also intensifying across the region. In countries such as the Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, and India, regulators have introduced stronger authentication requirements, reflecting a broader regional shift toward treating SMS OTP vulnerabilities as both a security and compliance priority.

This growing focus on fraud prevention is driving stronger enterprise action across APAC. For example, PLDT Enterprise strengthened security across Smart’s network after deploying Infobip’s SMS and Voice Firewall. The deployment helped reduce spam, smishing, and fraudulent SMS traffic, blocking more than 1.3 billion spam and fraud attempts while improving SMS delivery and overall network security.

“In APAC’s rapidly growing digital economy, trust is emerging as a key competitive advantage, and businesses need to make Network APIs a core part of their fraud prevention and authentication strategy. Companies should consider leveraging Network APIs’ capabilities such as Number Verify, SIM Swap detection, KYC Match, and Device Location Verification to better stay ahead of evolving threats while delivering seamless customer experiences. By taking this a step further and orchestrating these capabilities through a CPaaS platform, businesses can create a centralized, resilient security framework that helps reduce fraud without disrupting the user experience,” commented Goran Valjak, Director of Telecom Growth and Strategy Asia at Infobip.
