Atlantic City casino industry contributed nearly $120,000 during inaugural Meal on a Mission event hosted by Hard Rock Atlantic City, expanding efforts to combat food insecurity across South Jersey

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J., June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Atlantic City casino industry and the Community FoodBank of New Jersey (CFBNJ) reached a major milestone in their ongoing effort to fight food insecurity, announcing the Casinos Unite Against Hunger campaign has raised nearly $400,000 since its launch in May 2025, which is the equivalent of providing more than 1.2 million meals to those in need.

The milestone was reached during CFBNJ’s inaugural “Meal on a Mission: A Chef’s Tableside Experience,” held on June 12 at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City. The event brought together community leaders, acclaimed chefs, local businesses and supporters committed to addressing food insecurity throughout South Jersey.

“Meal on a Mission is a powerful example of what can happen when the Atlantic City community comes together around a common goal,” said George Goldhoff, president, Casino Association of New Jersey (CANJ). “Through our partnership with the Community FoodBank of New Jersey, Atlantic City’s casino industry is helping to create a meaningful, lasting impact for our families facing food insecurity throughout our region.”

During Meal on a Mission, the Atlantic City casino industry collectively donated nearly $120,000 to CFBNJ. This included a $50,000 donation from the CANJ, along with a $50,000 donation from Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City in honor of its eighth anniversary. The inaugural event was made possible by Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City as Host and Culinary Visionary Sponsor, CANJ as Culinary Visionary Sponsor, Caesars Entertainment Atlantic City as Executive Chef Sponsor, and Borgata Hotel, Casino & Spa and Ocean Casino Resort as Epicurean Sponsors. Chefs and restaurants from Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa, Caesars Entertainment Properties, Golden Nugget Atlantic City, and Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City participated in the event.

Casinos Unite Against Hunger is a collaborative initiative launched in May 2025 by the Atlantic City casino industry in partnership with the Community FoodBank of New Jersey to address food insecurity in communities across South Jersey. In addition to financial support, casino employees have volunteered with CFBNJ initiatives and participated in community outreach efforts. During the 2025 holiday season, the industry participated in a mobile food pantry in Ventnor and helped provide 1,200 turkeys to families in need. In 2026, in addition to sponsoring Meal on a Mission, Caesars Entertainment Atlantic City donated $20,000 to support the CFBNJ, and the MGM Resorts Foundation donated $10,000.

“Every day, too many individuals and families around New Jersey face difficult choices between paying bills, keeping a roof over their heads, and putting food on the table,” said Elizabeth McCarthy, President & CEO of the Community FoodBank of New Jersey (CFBNJ). “We are incredibly grateful for the support of organizations like the Casino Association of New Jersey as we work to eliminate hunger in the Garden State.”

CFBNJ is New Jersey’s largest anti-hunger, anti-poverty organization, providing food to more than 800 local food assistance organizations across 15 counties and connecting neighbors with resources that support long-term stability.

Trupeer AI Appoints Former UiPath APAC President & CEO Raghu Subramanian to Accelerate UK Enterprise Growth

Published

on

By

LONDON, June 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Trupeer AI, the workflow knowledge layer for teams and AI agents, today announced the appointment of Raghu Subramanian as President and Chief Business Officer as the company accelerates its expansion in the United Kingdom, one of Europe’s most knowledge-intensive enterprise markets. Backed by RTP Global, Salesforce Ventures and trusted by more than 50,000 teams in over 100 countries, Trupeer is strengthening its leadership team to scale adoption across enterprises, financial and professional services firms, and technology-enabled business services companies.

The United Kingdom represents a strategic priority for Trupeer. London’s financial services and professional services sectors rank among the most compliance-documented, knowledge-intensive industries anywhere in the world, where process knowledge is a regulatory artifact, not a nice-to-have. UK enterprises are also among Europe’s largest buyers of global business services, operating capability centres across multiple countries, placing them squarely on the demand side of the cross-border knowledge distribution challenge Trupeer is built to solve. For organisations managing teams and processes across geographies, the ability to capture knowledge once and deploy it in 120+ languages is operational infrastructure, not a feature. The depth of this opportunity is already visible in Trupeer’s deployments: a FTSE 100 company used the platform to train thousands of employees across a multi-country IT transformation, saving over 9,000 hours in the process.

Raghu joins from a distinguished career at the forefront of enterprise automation. As a founding member of the management team at UiPath, he was part of the core executive team that helped build the company into a $35+ billion NYSE-listed enterprise. He established UiPath’s India operations in 2016 and later served as President & CEO for India and APAC. Bringing over 25 years of enterprise technology leadership, Raghu has built and scaled enterprise businesses across global markets, with deep expertise in automation, business process management, and enterprise AI adoption. Prior to joining UiPath, he served as CTO of EXL Service.

At Trupeer, he will lead the company’s next phase of commercial expansion, with a sharp focus on UK-headquartered enterprises and the demand side of European global capability centre networks. Trupeer’s platform transforms unstructured, multimodal workflows into SOPs, guides, training assets, studio-quality videos, and continuously updated, AI-ready context for employees and intelligent agents, delivering knowledge transfer in 120+ languages.

Shivali Goyal, CEO and Co-Founder, Trupeer AI, said, “Raghu has spent decades helping organisations adopt and scale transformative technologies and brings deep experience in building enterprises globally. Having seen first-hand the challenges enterprises face in organisational knowledge and agentic AI enablement, Raghu immediately resonated with our vision and the momentum Trupeer has built globally. His expertise will help us strengthen our commercial capabilities, deepen partnerships, and unlock the next phase of growth at Trupeer.”

Raghu Subramanian, President and Chief Business Officer, Trupeer AI, said, “Enterprises have long struggled to get real value from AI, and the reason is fragmented context. The knowledge that makes AI useful sits trapped in people’s heads and scattered across tools. In the agentic AI era, where agents are only as good as the context they run on, that gap becomes the difference between AI that works and doesn’t. This is the gap Trupeer was built to close. I look forward to partnering with enterprises and organisations across the globe to build the context layer that makes enterprise knowledge structured, accessible, and actionable, and AI genuinely useful.”

About Trupeer

Trupeer AI is the workflow knowledge layer for enterprises that enables teams and AI agents. The company helps organizations capture critical operational knowledge that is often trapped in the minds of subject matter experts and scattered across tools, transforming it into structured, accessible, and queryable knowledge. Its platform captures enterprise workflows and turns unstructured, multimodal input into SOPs, guides, studio-quality videos, training assets into 120+ languages and continuously updated, AI-ready context that intelligent agents can leverage, making institutional knowledge accessible, actionable, and queryable. Backed by RTP Global and Salesforce Ventures, Trupeer supports more than 50,000 teams in over 100 countries, including Fortune 100 enterprises, Global Capability Centers and technology-enabled business services companies.

Resilience Actions, a Re Sustainability Initiative, Launches ECOHUB.IN to Power India’s Climate and Circular Economy Innovation Ecosystem

Published

on

By

HYDERABAD, India, June 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Resilience Actions, the social and environmental impact initiative of Re (Re Sustainability), has launched ECOHUB.IN, a sustainability-focused incubator designed to support early-stage enterprises working in climate and clean-tech, pollution management, resource efficiency, circular economy, and sustainability innovation.

The initiative is aimed at startups that have moved beyond the ideation stage and are ready for commercial scale, with a working Minimum Viable Product (MVP), a committed team, and a clearly defined market opportunity.

As India advances towards a low-carbon and circular economy, the demand for innovative sustainability solutions continues to grow. However, many promising ventures face challenges in scaling due to limited access to mentorship, catalytic capital, industry partnerships, pilot opportunities, and business validation. ECOHUB.IN has been established to bridge these gaps and help transform high-potential sustainability ventures into scalable businesses capable of delivering measurable environmental and social impact.

Through the incubator, participating startups will gain access to mentorship, technical and business advisory support, investment-readiness assistance, pilot-to-commercial pathways, ecosystem partnerships, and opportunities for industry integration. A key differentiator of ECOHUB.IN is its connection to Re’s extensive operational ecosystem, enabling selected ventures to engage with domain experts, validate solutions in real-world environments, and explore pathways for commercial deployment and scale.

Commenting on the launch, Masood Mallick, Managing Director and Group CEO, Re (Re Sustainability), said:

“India’s sustainability transition will not be driven by infrastructure alone. It will be driven by innovation, entrepreneurship, and the ability to scale ideas that solve real environmental challenges. Through ECOHUB.IN, we are creating a platform that brings together innovators, startups, industry leaders, investors, academia, and policymakers to accelerate solutions that are commercially viable, environmentally responsible, and capable of delivering measurable impact.

India has no shortage of ideas. What is often missing is the ecosystem that helps transform those ideas into scalable enterprises. ECOHUB.IN is designed to bridge that gap by providing mentorship, industry access, business validation, and pathways to commercial adoption. By combining the strengths of innovation with the experience and operational ecosystem of Re Sustainability, we hope to enable the next generation of climate and circular economy entrepreneurs to build solutions that contribute meaningfully to India’s sustainability journey and create lasting value for society, industry, and the planet.”

Over time, ECOHUB.IN aims to strengthen India’s sustainability innovation ecosystem by supporting ventures that reduce pollution, improve resource efficiency, advance circularity, create green jobs, enable decarbonization, and contribute to a more resilient future.

Applications for the inaugural cohort will open shortly through ECOHUB.IN.
