SVRN Acquires FastNEAR, Expanding Its Role Operating Essential NEAR Infrastructure

Published

on

The company’s first acquisition as SVRN, Inc. brings in a core provider of network access and data services, along with its founding engineers, and deepens its participation in the NEAR ecosystem.

NEW YORK, Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — SVRN, Inc. (NASDAQ: SVRN) today announced that it has acquired FastNEAR, a provider of the RPC (Remote Procedure Call) infrastructure that applications on NEAR Protocol use to read information from the network and submit transactions to it. FastNEAR is now a wholly owned subsidiary of SVRN, and its co-founders, Evgeny Kuzyakov and Mike Purvis, have joined the company. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Most people who use a digital wallet or application never see the systems behind it. When a wallet displays a balance, a developer looks up a past transaction, or an application submits a payment, the request goes to servers that hold a current copy of the network and respond on its behalf. FastNEAR operates those systems for a large share of NEAR: a fleet of servers handling requests to read from and write to the network, archival infrastructure that stores its complete transaction history, and NEARDATA, a key data feed used by developers. FastNEAR serves more than 3.5 billion requests a month with more than 100 terabytes of data, powering the NEAR ecosystem. 

SVRN’s treasury gives shareholders exposure to NEAR, and the company has steadily expanded its strategies beyond management of its digital assets to actively operating the NEAR network and advancing the ecosystem. SVRN stakes its treasury with validators that secure the network, and it participates in NEAR’s governance, including co-authoring the program approved in February 2026 that pays MPC (multi-party computation) node operators for their performance. Acquiring FastNEAR extends that participation to the services NEAR’s developers use every day. It also adds an operating business with an established customer base whose value is distinct from the price of NEAR.

FastNEAR’s services will continue without interruption for existing customers. SVRN intends to invest in the reliability and capacity of FastNEAR’s infrastructure and to build additional products and services on it.

“Everything built on NEAR depends on infrastructure most people never see,” said Sal Ternullo, Chief Executive Officer of SVRN. “When a wallet shows a balance or an application submits a transaction, something has to answer, quickly and correctly, every time. FastNEAR has done that for a large share of the ecosystem, run by a small team that kept its prices low because it wanted the network to grow. Operating that infrastructure puts us close to real demand. We can see where usage is growing and what developers need that doesn’t exist yet. That knowledge will shape where we invest next, and FastNEAR is the first of several steps we plan to take to drive adoption of NEAR’s products.”

D.Law Opens Its Doors Online With “Our Space,” a Photographic Tour of the Pasadena Headquarters

Published

on

By

PASADENA, Calif., Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Most law firms show you a lobby and a conference table. D.Law is showing you the whole building.

Today D.Law, the California employment firm that fights for workers, launched Our Space, a new page on www.d.law that opens up its Pasadena headquarters to anyone curious about where — and how — the firm works. The page features 40 professional architectural photographs captured over two days, including aerial drone shots, wide panoramas of the open floors, and the signature spiral staircase at the heart of the office.

But the page isn’t a real-estate listing. Alongside the architecture are candid moments of the people who fill it: a hallway catch-up, a quick conversation between floors, a team heading downstairs. The message is simple: the space and the people are one story.

“I designed this building around one idea: people do their best work when they feel like they belong somewhere. The open floors, the staircase, the natural light all exist to bring the team together. Seeing it captured this way, with the team moving through it, is exactly how it was meant to be lived in,” said Rick Corsini, the architect who designed D.Law’s headquarters.

“Every day, we tell clients they deserve a workplace that respects them. This office is us holding ourselves to that same standard. When candidates ask what it’s like to work here, we can finally just send them a link,” said Edgar Davtyan, Head of Strategy and Growth at D.Law.

The launch builds on a run of recognition for D.Law’s culture. The firm was named to Inc.’s Best Workplaces list in both 2025 and 2026, ranked #1 Best Place to Work in Los Angeles by the Los Angeles Business Journal in 2023, and named a Top Law Firm by the LA Times in 2026.

Our Space sits in the “Join Us” section of www.d.law, next to the firm’s Careers, Summer Associate, High School Internship and Paralegal Training programs. For attorneys, paralegals and staff weighing their next move, it offers something a job listing can’t: a look at the place they’d walk into every morning.

Take the tour at d.law/our-space.

About D.Law

D.Law is a plaintiff-side employment law firm representing California workers in wrongful termination, wage and hour, discrimination and harassment, retaliation, and protected leave cases. Founded by Emil Davtyan, the firm has 200+ employees across 16 California offices and is headquartered at 250 N. Madison Ave., Pasadena, CA 91101. Learn more at d.law.

LiquidJet Diamond Coldplates can increase AI Factory profitability by up to 35%

Published

AI Industry Unicorn, Frore Systems’ latest coldplate innovation, LiquidJet Diamond, improves extreme
hotspot cooling, significantly increasing the efficiency and profitability of AI Data Centers

SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Frore Systems today announced LiquidJet Diamond, a new AI Factory liquid cooling coldplate featuring an integrated diamond spreader. The accelerating demand for AI Tokens, coupled with energy scarcity, is spurring hyperscalers to find new ways to increase the efficiency of AI Factories. LiquidJet Diamond Coldplate boosts AI Tokens/Watt and revenue by 35% compared to traditional skived coldplates, with the increased revenue flowing directly to profit.

LiquidJet Diamond builds on the previously announced Frore Systems LiquidJet coldplate. LiquidJet coldplate employs a unique 3D ultra short-loop multi-stage design which can be precisely customized to the power map of each GPU, including extreme hotspots. This precision is critical as GPUs grow in complexity and power draw to meet AI demand. LiquidJet delivers 12 oC reduction in GPU die temperature which directly translates to 25% higher Tokens/Watt efficiency. LiquidJet Diamond adds an additional spreader with integrated diamond wafers to the coldplate bottom, positioned precisely at the hotspot locations. LiquidJet Diamond delivers an additional 10 oC reduction in hotspot die temperature, boosting increase in Tokens/Watt to 35%.

“AI Factories are facing major performance barriers,” said Seshu Madhavapeddy, Founder and CEO of Frore Systems. “GPUs are increasing power density and creating extreme hotspots which, if not properly cooled, hinder the GPU from maximizing performance. LiquidJet Diamond, which features an integrated diamond spreader in addition to innovative 3D ultra short-loop multi-stage design, can cool extreme hotspots up to 770 W/ cm2, unleashing high-performance AI GPUs and delivering even more AI Tokens/Watt.” He continued, “When each GPU is more efficient, each AI Token costs less to produce, and more AI Tokens can be generated within the available power budget, using the same AI Factory infrastructure. This increases AI Factory profitability, while conserving local resources.”

Power available to AI Factories is finite and expensive to expand. Utility interconnection, transformer capacity, and physical power delivery infrastructure are all limiting factors on total AI Factory power draw and are areas which have local communities increasingly concerned. Facing this power constraint, AI Factory operators understand that power is a strategic asset, and every watt allocated must be used to generate tokens as efficiently as possible.

“If each AI Factory could produce 35% more AI Tokens with the same resources by deploying LiquidJet Diamond, hyperscalers would reach their growth goals faster with fewer AI Factories,” Seshu commented. “Each new AI Factory costs tens of billions of dollars to build and more to operate, so the ability to generate more AI Tokens/Watt with existing resources can significantly increase profits, conserve energy and make a significant difference to all stakeholders.”

LiquidJet® Diamond: The innovative 3D ultra short-loop multi-stage coldplate built for the rapid growth of AI

LiquidJet Diamond performance compared to a skived coldplate:

Hotspot cooling: over 150% higher max power density75% higher heat transfer efficiency16 – 22 ºC cooler GPU30 – 35% more AI Tokens/WattSeamless drop-in upgrade 

Designed to scale to meet AI data center demand, in both size and volume.

LiquidJet addresses the industry’s most pressing thermal challenges — not only through superior performance and hotspot management, but also through its ability to scale to hyperscaler volumes.

Traditional skiving cannot deliver the exacting thermal performance demanded by today’s AI GPUs. Newer approaches such as ECAM (electrochemical additive manufacturing, also known as 3D metal printing) offer design flexibility but cannot meet hyperscaler quality, reliability, volumes, or timelines. LiquidJet combines the precision of semiconductor fabrication with high-volume manufacturing capability — satisfying both the performance and scale requirements of leading AI data center coldplate deployments.

Higher thermal performance and high-volume manufacturing are not the only challenges LiquidJet solves. GPU die sizes are increasing dramatically. Die sizes range from 1,488 mm2 NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra all the way to 46,225 mm2 Cerebras Wafer-Scale Engine, roughly 30x the footprint. With LiquidJet, Frore Systems has pioneered the only coldplate manufacturing process capable of supporting not only the power and performance, but also the size requirement of these larger AI GPUs. 

See LiquidJet in action

At the 2026 OCP Global Summit, Frore Systems is showcasing its latest innovations with live demos of LiquidJet and LiquidJet Diamond Coldplates delivering cooling for the 2300W NVIDIA Rubin and 770 W/cm² extreme hotspot density, along with LiquidJet Nexus, the integrated coldplate system for ½ U compute trays.

By

AI agents for retail grocery procurement are reaching scale — 100 million transactions this year. GSC opens in London, where 84 of every 100 makers are.

VANCOUVER, BC and LONDON, Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — GreenCore Solutions Corp. (GSC) today introduces its 0–100 Agentic Density Scale for the grocery market: three markets — the UK, the European Union with Switzerland, and the USA — set to 100, and each market read as a number on that scale. Sales and makers are each read on the scale on their own; each adds to 100 by itself.

Sales: USA 42 • Europe 52 • UK 6Makers: USA 16 • Europe 81 • UK 3

On the scale, the shelf and the makers sit in different places. The USA is 42 of sales and 16 of makers. The UK and Europe are 58 of sales and 84 of makers — five makers for every one in the USA. Nearly 40% of Europe’s shelf is own-label, made by contract manufacturers with no consumer brand. The market the industry calls “the CPG market” is where grocery is bought; 84 of every 100 makers are somewhere else, and most of them have no brand to be found by.

What the agents already do

GSC’s AI agents have handled 100 million agentic transactions on the record year to date. 40% came from Europe, 20% from the USA, and 40% from the rest of the world. The agents are already buying where the shelf is. Everyone else measures what people bought. GSC measures what the agents are buying.

GSC opens in London

GSC today opened a sales office in London, UK, under its new company GreenCore Solutions (UK), at Medius House, 2 Sheraton St, London W1F 8BH, reached at gsc-em.co.uk.

A2A-Grocery.co.uk, the agentic commerce hub for retail grocery, carries 353,510 makers across 20 markets. 201,297 of them are in the UK, the EU, Switzerland and the USA. The London office puts the European makers — the 81 — in front of the AI agents buying for grocery retailers in every one of the 20 markets, human in the loop on every order. The UK’s own 12,130 food and drink manufacturers are the first door.

“Makers with AI agents get found, get checked and get ordered — in the markets they sell in today and the ones they want next,” said Matthew Keddy, CEO of GreenCore Solutions Corp. “On GSC’s Agentic Density Scale 84 of every 100 makers are in the UK and Europe. A2A-Grocery.co.uk is their ad-free marketplace, and London is the door.”

UK and EU makers are served in-region from day one. GSC’s record is answered from Microsoft Azure UK South for the UK, and from seven Azure regions across the EU and Switzerland — France, Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Italy, Spain and Poland — plus Google Cloud Enterprise, Madrid. A maker’s data stays in its market.
