The initiative is being led in partnership by Hemant Baidwan, former CISO of the Department of Homeland Security and current Executive CISO at Knox, and Kristen Tsamoudakis, VP, Head of People. Their partnership underscores the company’s focus on connecting veteran recruiting directly with business and mission needs.

As smart calendars and inkless boards emerge as the next essential home productivity tools, Nework introduces NewFlow and NewSlate, alongside storewide October Prime deals.

POMONA, Calif., Sept. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — In recent years, a quiet shift has been happening in modern homes and hybrid workspaces. As life gets busier, consumers are moving away from traditional distraction-heavy screens and paper clutter, actively seeking tools that bring calm, structure, and intention to their daily lives. Among these emerging lifestyle tech trends, two products are fast becoming must-haves: smart digital calendars that bring family schedules into focus, and inkless writing boards that offer a clean, friction-free canvas for instant ideas.

People no longer just want more technology—they want tools that seamlessly blend into their environment. Smart digital calendars give families a centralized hub to sync schedules and track chores, while inkless writing boards offer a sustainable, marker-free space to map out thoughts without paper waste.

Meeting this shift in consumer demand, audiovisual and collaborative solutions provider Nework is officially expanding its smart living portfolio this October with two brand-new releases: NewFlow (Smart Digital Calendar) and NewSlate (Inkless Writing board).

NewFlow: The Ultimate Central Hub for the Modern Home

Designed to streamline busy household logistics, NewFlow brings agendas, tasks, and routines together into one sleek, ambient display.

Seamless Syncing: Automatically integrates with Google Calendar, iCloud, and Outlook.Family-Centric Planning: Features color-coded member profiles, interactive chore lists, meal planners, and shared grocery lists.Remote Access: Adjust schedules on the go via the companion mobile app.Ambient Photo Mode: When not in planning mode, NewFlow doubles as an elegant digital photo frame that blends naturally into modern home decor.

NewSlate: A Cleaner, Distraction-Free Canvas for Ideas

Built for quick brainstorming, study workflows, and daily reminders, NewSlate provides a natural, pen-on-paper writing feel without the clutter of sticky notes or traditional dry-erase markers.

 Natural Writing Experience: Low-latency response ensures smooth, precise strokes and effortless partial or full erasing.Sustainable & Efficient: An eco-friendly, energy-efficient design that eliminates paper waste and marker ink disposal.Focused Workspace: Keeps quick notes visible without adding another notification-heavy screen to your environment.

October Savings Across Nework’s Flagship Lines

Alongside the new product introductions, Nework will participate in Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days with a limited-time 48-hour promotion from October 6 to October 7.

The promotion includes 15%-20% off the NewBoard Smart Board Series and more than 20% off the MoveMate Portable TV Series, providing early holiday shoppers with savings across Nework’s existing work and entertainment portfolio.

As consumers look to upgrade their home technology or get an early start on holiday shopping, the promotion offers savings on products designed around increasingly flexible ways of working, relaxing, and spending time at home.

The NewBoard Series is designed to support collaboration and productivity in home offices and shared spaces, bringing communication, content, and everyday workflows together on one interactive display. For entertainment, the MoveMate Series offers a more flexible viewing experience, allowing users to bring their screen to different spaces around the home rather than organizing their routines around a fixed TV setup.

Through its upcoming launches and October deals, Nework continues to focus on technology that simplifies daily tasks and integrates work, home, and personal time seamlessly.

Five-year agreement expands BNP Paribas’s access to Google Cloud’s AI-optimized  infrastructure, Gemini models and Gemini Enterprise.Initial use cases include plans to integrate Gemini models into LLM@CIB, CIB’s internal  generative AI assistant, and deploy agentic AI use cases within Corporate & Institutional  Banking (CIB).Strengthens BNP Paribas’ multi-cloud approach, aligned within its existing security and data  governance framework. 

PARIS and SUNNYVALE, Calif., Sept. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — BNP Paribas and Google Cloud today announced a  new five-year partnership, to expand BNP Paribas’ access to Google Cloud’s infrastructure and advanced AI capabilities including Gemini Enterprise and Gemini models. 

Through this partnership, Google Cloud technologies will support the expansion of BNP Paribas’ infrastructure and AI capabilities as the Bank moves towards broader deployment of agentic AI. It will also strengthen its existing multi-cloud and multi-model approach within its established security and data governance framework.

“Our role is to empower our businesses with the technology capabilities they need while maintaining a consistent framework for security and control. A multi-cloud and multi-model approach gives us  the flexibility to select, for each case, the right model, infrastructure and level of control to meet our  requirements for quality and security while delivering the best balance between cost and value. This partnership strengthens that approach and expands the options available to our businesses,” said Marc Camus, Group Chief Information Officer, BNP Paribas.

“Agentic AI marks a critical shift in how global financial institutions streamline operations, assess risk, and serve their clients. Through this five-year partnership, BNP Paribas is combining  its banking leadership with Google Cloud’s secure infrastructure and Gemini Enterprise to deploy  intelligent agents within platforms across the bank,” said Thomas Kurian, CEO at Google Cloud. 

From cloud and AI capabilities to business use case 
Through this partnership, BNP Paribas will have access to Gemini Enterprise to build, evaluate and  deploy purpose-built agents tailored to specific business needs. 

Starting with BNP Paribas Corporate & Institutional Banking (CIB):

The new capabilities will support the planned deployment of AI agents for targeted workflows,  including the preparation of corporate credit memos to assist teams, with further applications  across sales, trading, research, and structuring activities. Gemini models will be integrated into LLM@CIB, its generative AI assistant currently  available to more than 65,000 employees.

“Our approach to AI starts with the business need. We assess which technology is best suited to  each use case and deploy it within the bank’s security and governance framework. Agentic AI can  help our teams handle more complex workflows while maintaining the appropriate level of control,” said Charles Holive, Chief AI Officer, BNP Paribas CIB.

Google Cloud and Gemini technologies have already been deployed at Nickel, BNP Paribas’  payment account business within the Commercial, Personal Banking & Services (CPBS) division.  Gemini serves as the foundational model for Nickel Assist, helping 200 customer advisers find  answers to customer requests based on Nickel’s procedures and operating guidelines. 

A controlled, enterprise-grade governance framework
The use of Google Cloud will follow BNP Paribas’ existing security and data governance  requirements, which determines the type of data and workloads that can be processed in a public  cloud environment. Certain categories of data will not be stored in a public cloud environment.

Security is a key pillar of BNP Paribas’ agentic AI strategy, with each agent being authenticated and  granted access only to the resources required to perform its assigned task. The connection of AI  agents to the Group’s information systems and their respective interactions will be consequently  monitored and controlled. 

The partnership will also contribute to BNP Paribas’ existing Group-wide AI adoption program,  completing ongoing initiatives with learning opportunities ranging from foundational AI literacy to  specialized AI agent development.
