WILSONVILLE, Ore., June 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — TargetPath, the leading global consultancy for brand acceleration and organizational scale, has appointed tech executive Suezette Yasmin Robotham as Senior Partner and Chief People Experience Officer. Robotham will lead the newly formed People, Culture, and AI Advisory practice focused on enabling managers to become strategic leaders in AI adoption and organizational effectiveness.

The launch of Robotham’s advisory arrives as organizations face growing pressure to deliver measurable results leveraging emerging technologies, while keeping people at the heart of innovation. The practice will help brands maximize AI adoption and effectiveness by training people leaders to think more strategically about implementation, operational risk, and team performance. Built to close the gap between AI investment and AI results, the advisory is designed to ensure people leaders have the strategic capacity required to guide teams through adoption and organizational change.

“As a full-service business accelerator for the past 17 years, TargetPath has helped companies ranging from early-stage companies to global Fortune 500 achieve their potential faster with a higher probability of success. We have seen firsthand that sustaining growth requires internal infrastructure to evolve alongside the business, especially today in a rapidly changing landscape,” said Deena Ghazarian, Managing Partner, TargetPath. “Suezette brings exceptional experience building leadership and organizational strategy inside some of the world’s most influential technology companies, including Meta, Google, and Salesforce. Her expertise will be invaluable to clients navigating growth, scale, and AI adoption, and we are thrilled to welcome her as Senior Partner and Chief People Experience Officer.”

The People, Culture and AI Advisory places leaders and managers at the center of cultural transformation, helping organizations integrate innovations like AI into the way organizations do work every day. Rather than dictating technology strategy from the top or training employees in isolation, the advisory will support organizations in building the leadership fluency, cultural readiness, and operational frameworks that enable people leaders to guide teams through AI implementation and create organizational change driven from within.

Drawing on her expertise in Agentic AI and enterprise leadership, Robotham will also lead the development of a companion HR technology platform designed to support employee onboarding, engagement, and retention through AI-powered tools and agents that create more personalized and connected employee experiences.

“AI is accelerating the pace at which companies need to evolve,” said Robotham. “However, technology alone does not create scale. Sustainable growth requires talented people and a culture strong enough to support innovation and adaptability. Organizations need systems, processes, executive alignment, and strategic vision capable of supporting growth, AI adoption, and long-term enterprise value. I’m excited to bring the lessons and systems built inside some of the world’s most influential technology companies to the next generation of category-defining businesses.”

Robotham has spent two decades designing the leadership, talent, and culture systems that high-performing organizations rely on, including leadership roles across Salesforce, Google, Meta, and Gartner. Her work has included building executive pipelines, succession frameworks, recruiting programs, and multimillion-dollar partnerships at Fortune 500 scale across the globe. At Salesforce, Robotham designed and led the organization’s Executive Recruiting programmatic strategy, and she served in a coveted international rotation leading the EMEA DEI Strategy across 19 countries and was certified as a Salesforce AgentBlazer Innovator focused on emerging AI technologies. She began her career in education reform at Teach For America and The New Teacher Project, where her belief that systems should serve people, not the other way around, first took shape. Robotham is also the author of the bestselling self-help book Beyond Titles: Fearlessly Leading as Your Authentic Self, which reached #1 on Amazon. Robotham holds an M.S. in Urban Policy Studies from Georgia State University and a B.S. in Human Resource Development from the University of Florida, where she is a Hall of Fame inductee and former member of the Alumni Association Board of Directors.

MARRAKECH, Morocco, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The International Association of Anti-Corruption Authorities (IAACA), an independent and non-political anti-corruption organisation with over 190 member anti-corruption authorities (ACAs) worldwide, will co-host IAACA Annual Conference 2026 in Marrakech, Morocco next month together with the Independent Commission Against Corruption of Hong Kong, China (ICAC) and the National Authority for Probity, Prevention and Fight Against Corruption of Morocco (INPPLC) to chart a path for the global graft fight and explore cutting-edge approaches to tackle emerging corruption challenges.

Themed “Building on 20 Years of Legacy: Drawing Strength from the Past, Guarding Global Integrity for the Future”, the international event will not only mark the 20th anniversary of the IAACA, but also provide a dynamic forum for IAACA members to exchange insights and enhance co-operation.

Calling on international counterparts to participate in the conference scheduled for November 25, IAACA President Mr Woo Ying-ming, who also serves as ICAC Commissioner, said that “As the IAACA marks its 20th anniversary, the conference will bring together global anti-corruption community at a pivotal moment for collective action. I anticipate that the valuable insights and new approaches generated through the international synergy will chart a resilient strategic path for us to navigate integrity risks and draw strength from our shared legacy to guard global integrity for generations to come.”

During the conference, renowned international experts from the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), Basel Institute on Governance, the International Anti-Corruption Academy, and global anti-corruption and law enforcement agencies and institutions will shed light on harnessing artificial intelligence in the fight against corruption, safeguarding integrity within global climate and biodiversity frameworks and analysing global corruption measurement and systemic effectiveness.

Following the conference, the ICAC, the INPPLC, the IAACA and the UNODC will co-organise a training seminar on leveraging AI in combating corruption.

While the ICAC and INPPLC will share how AI and new technology can reshape the future of anti-graft enforcement and corruption prevention, the UNODC will provide a global perspective on using AI models in financial crime investigations and addressing the operational relevance, legal robustness and adaptability across jurisdictions.

Viettel moves 100 million subscribers to home-grown cloud-native charging in three months – with zero downtime

HANOI, Vietnam, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Viettel High Technology Industries Corporation (Viettel High Tech), part of Viettel Group, has migrated more than 100 million subscribers and some 5,000 tariff plans at Viettel, Vietnam’s largest mobile operator, to vOCS 4.0, its in-house cloud-native charging system. The three-month cutover ran on a live national network with no service disruption.

Replacing a charging system is one of the riskiest projects an operator can undertake, which is why many stick with legacy platforms. Viettel High Tech reduced the risk through real-time data synchronization, parallel running and a phased cutover, with instant rollback at every stage.

The project won the Telecom Review Excellence Awards 2026 prize for Best Technology Deployment in Asia, a first for a Vietnamese company.

What it means for operators:

Scale: more than 300,000 transactions per second at latency below 5 milliseconds, across 2G–5G and fixed services on one platformLower cost: up to 50% less hardware investment than the previous generation, by sharing infrastructure with the networkAgility: new tariff plans in hours instead of days, new features three times faster and deployments about 30% fasterResilience: two active data centers about 2,000 km apart and automatic recovery in under two minutes

Viettel High Tech developed every core layer in-house, from a telecom-grade cloud-native platform and NFV-MANO orchestration to real-time charging, subscriber and balance management.

“Passing rigorous tests of real-time self-diagnosis and self-recovery is what allows an operator to keep its promise of 24/7 service to customers,” said Luu Manh Ha, CEO of Viettel Networks, which operates the system on Viettel’s network in Vietnam. “Above all, owning the charging system means an operator is not dependent on foreign vendors – it safeguards digital sovereignty and preserves business flexibility.”

“The charging system is where an operator’s business strategy turns into revenue in real time,” said Nguyen Minh Quang, CEO of Viettel High Tech. “We believe vOCS 4.0 is ready to help operators worldwide capture the value of 5G and digital services.”

In 2017, vOCS 4.0’s predecessor, vOCS 3.0, replaced a foreign vendor’s platform for 90 million Viettel subscribers. Across both generations, vOCS serves more than 220 million subscribers in 11 countries. Viettel High Tech now offers vOCS 4.0 to operators worldwide.
