MEDORA, N.D., July 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Following the historic July 4 grand opening of the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library, the institution’s Board of Trustees today announced that O’Keefe, its founding chief executive, has been named President & CEO of The WNET Group, the parent of New York’s flagship PBS station and one of the most respected independent public media organizations in the country. O’Keefe will remain CEO of the Library through September 18, 2026.

“The successful opening of the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter and the timing is right for this transition,” said Hilary Hamm, Chair of the Board of Trustees. “The Board is deeply grateful to Ed for seven years of leadership in bringing this vision to life and equally confident in the exceptional team leading the institution every day. We have launched a national search for the Library’s next leader and are committed to ensuring the organization continues to grow, inspire, and thrive for generations to come.”

The leadership transition comes at a moment of extraordinary momentum for the institution. Since its July 4 debut, the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library has welcomed more than 40,000 participants and counting, enrolled almost 3,500 members, and attracted more than 1 million website visitors, reflecting tremendous national interest in Theodore Roosevelt’s enduring legacy and the Library’s immersive participant experience.

“This Library was never intended simply to tell the story of Theodore Roosevelt. It is about our shared responsibility to carry forward the principles he championed: leadership, citizenship, and conservation,” said Theodore Roosevelt V, the President’s great-great-grandson and a member of the Board of Trustees. “Ed O’Keefe understood that from the very first day. He built a place that does more than honor Theodore Roosevelt; it asks every person who walks through its doors what kind of citizen they intend to be. The Roosevelt family is proud of what he has built and confident that the institution he leaves behind will continue to embody his boldness, ambition, and sense of possibility. We are thrilled to see him bring that same visionary energy back to public media.”

When Edward F. O’Keefe took the helm of the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library, there was no land, no architect, and no museum to design — only the conviction, shared by the Roosevelt family, former Governor Doug Burgum and the North Dakota Legislature, that Theodore Roosevelt’s story deserved a home in the Badlands that shaped him.

“Building this Library alongside the people of North Dakota and our partners across the state has been the honor of my career,” said O’Keefe. “What we set out to do is now real, thriving, and welcoming thousands of participants, and I leave day-to-day leadership with complete confidence. Public media has a vital role to play in American life, and I’m eager to take up that work.”

The Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library’s Board of Trustees has launched an Executive Search Committee and is actively working to identify the Library’s next leader. During this process, the Library’s leadership team will continue to ensure continuity in operations, programming, and the world-class experience that has defined the institution.

About the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library
The Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library opened in Medora, North Dakota, on July 4, 2026. Designed by Snøhetta and organized around the pillars of Leadership, Citizenship, and Conservation, the Library is an independently operated institution supported through a public-private partnership, including a State of North Dakota operating endowment. It is governed by the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Learn more at trlibrary.com.

Percent’s institutional-grade infrastructure powers deal structuring, investor onboarding, compliance framework and marketplace mechanics to bring private credit products to market

NEW YORK, July 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Percent, the platform powering modern private credit markets through access, liquidity and data, today announced that Trillium Technologies, a diversified investment company, has built its own branded investment marketplace on Percent’s institutional-grade infrastructure. The marketplace introduces Trillium Technologies’ compute credit, convertible note offering, demonstrating Percent’s ability to help companies turn emerging asset classes into investable private credit offerings without building the capital markets stack from scratch.

Compute credits, a unit of prepaid or allocated computing capacity, are one of the most novel structured credit products in the market today. These credits are often used in cloud platforms, AI services, or infrastructure providers that convert monetary value into a fixed pool of usable resources with a specific redemption rate and an expiration window. Yet, they are an emerging, trillion dollar asset class based on the capacity of data centers. The launch comes as demand for AI infrastructure financing is outpacing what traditional capital markets were built to support. Cloud computing companies require new ways to finance capacity and private credit is increasingly becoming a bridge between technological innovation and financial markets. Percent gives companies like Trillium Technologies the capital markets foundation to structure, distribute, and manage these products seamlessly.

“Compute credits represent exactly the kind of emerging asset class that private credit infrastructure should be able to support,” said Prath Reddy, CFA, Co-Founder and CEO of Percent. “Trillium saw an opportunity to bring a novel, real-world asset to investors and needed the capital markets foundation to do it with speed, compliance and operational rigor. That is what Percent was designed to do. Our platform has structured and distributed over $2 billion in private credit, and that infrastructure works whether the underlying asset is a consumer loan portfolio or compute capacity backing AI workloads. We’re building the rails for private credit’s next chapter.”

Percent’s infrastructure supports private credit products across asset classes, giving companies the core systems needed to administer and scale investment products. For a first-of-its-kind asset like compute credits, that foundation helps reduce the time, cost and complexity of building a marketplace while allowing Trillium Technologies to stay focused on its market, investors and long-term growth.

“Compute credits have become one of the defining resources of the digital economy. Trillium is focused on turning that resource into a transparent, liquid, investable asset,” said J. Christopher Mizer, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Trillium Technologies. “With Percent providing the capital markets foundation behind our marketplace, we can move faster, operate with greater confidence, and leverage our team to build the compute credit economy for investors and innovators.”

As demand for compute power accelerates, driven by AI, data analytics, scientific computing, and large-scale cloud workloads, Trillium bridges technology infrastructure and capital markets by enabling compute to behave like traditional commodities or financial securities.

Trillium Technologies closed its first round on July 10, with subsequent capital raises expected to follow. As the company continues to grow its marketplace, the relationship also expands the Percent ecosystem into a category expected to generate significant deal flow as compute capacity becomes a more important financial asset.
