Through the Term Sheet and the License Agreement, the Company intends to, in collaboration with EFFORCE Group, launch and operate a digital asset exchange based on Young Platform S.p.A’s proprietary digital asset exchange platform.

In addition to the proposed technology license, TROOPS and Young Platform S.p.A. intend to actively collaborate on the configuration, integration, deployment, enhancement and future evolution of the platform.
This announcement follows TROOPS’ previously disclosed conditional sale and purchase agreement with EFFORCE Group, which is expected to expand the Company’s capabilities across digital assets, sustainability-focused initiatives, and technology-driven financial services.
“This agreement represents an important milestone in the execution of our digital asset strategy,” said Damian Thurnheer, President and Chief Executive Officer of TROOPS. “By combining access to proven exchange technology and source code with direct collaboration between our engineering teams, we expect to significantly accelerate the development of our exchange infrastructure while retaining the flexibility to customize and expand the platform over time.”
The initiative complements TROOPS’ recently announced strategic developments, including its proposed business combination with EFFORCE Group and the previously announced appointments of Jacopo Visetti and Sergio Carloni, further strengthening the Company’s technology, operational and industry expertise as it expands its presence in the digital asset sector and advances related digital asset licensing arrangements.

Best Reddit Marketing Agency for Enterprise Brands: Nicely Network Named by Better Business Advice
Published
2 hours agoon
November 1, 2026By
NEW YORK, Nov. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Nicely Network has been named Best Reddit Marketing Agency for Enterprise Brands for November 2026 by Better Business Advice, recognizing its work combining Reddit campaigns, high-authority article placements and search visibility reporting for large brands.
The recognition focuses on enterprise portfolios: matching individual product categories to the questions buyers ask and tracking how published content contributes to discovery across search and AI platforms.
Enterprise Portfolios Require Coverage at the Product Level
For a large brand, search demand spans individual products, use cases, comparison criteria and markets. Nicely Network’s campaign model starts with those distinctions, defining objectives and identifying communities where relevant recommendations are being sought.
Its current materials describe work with 300+ brands, including Fortune 500 companies, across sectors such as technology, retail, finance, travel, beauty and wellness. That range is relevant to enterprise organizations managing several categories, each with its own vocabulary and buying considerations. A furniture query about extension mechanisms, for example, calls for different content from a discussion about outdoor equipment or diagnostic testing.
Category Results Connect Visibility With Buyer Response
The agency’s current media kit and pitch deck present examples across consumer categories, with results reported separately for exposure, website visits and sales:
Furniture: A series of Reddit discussions is credited with $150K in tracked sales, 21,190 clicks to the client’s website and 1M organic discussion views.Outdoor products: The materials report 60K AI mentions per month and 48M monthly AI impressions across seven AI platforms, following growth from near-zero mentions.Health diagnostics: An article placement recorded 16,924 article views and 2,483 clickthroughs.
These examples show different stages of response. Mentions indicate brand presence in AI answers, views record content exposure, and clicks capture visits beyond the published content. Tracked sales provide a separate commercial measure.
Evidence Behind the Best Reddit Marketing Agency for Enterprise Brands Selection
Across its work, Nicely Network reports 15,000+ AI citations and $150M+ in tracked sales revenue. Its pitch deck also reports 8,000+ Reddit discussions and 160M+ discussion views. These are agency-reported portfolio figures, alongside the category examples presented in its materials.
The Best Reddit Marketing Agency for Enterprise Brands recognition centers on the relationship between campaign scale, category relevance and measurable response. Enterprise coverage requires a process that can connect specific buying questions to content and reporting across a broader portfolio.
“Every product category brings its own buying questions,” said a spokesperson for Nicely Network. “The planning task is to connect those questions to useful content and then measure which discussions and articles contribute to discovery.”
From Buyer Questions to Reddit and Article Placements
Campaign planning begins with an objective, such as supporting a product launch, increasing AI visibility or driving conversions. The team then identifies relevant subreddits and develops discussions around high-intent search queries, with brand mentions introduced in the context of the topic.
Nicely Network pairs this Reddit activity with high-authority article placements. Those articles address category keywords and buyer questions while presenting product information and links that readers can follow to the brand’s website.
The combined approach gives a campaign multiple content formats for the same area of demand. A discussion can explore practical buying considerations through questions and replies, while an article can organize category information into a structured explanation.
How Searchable Content Can Enter AI Answers
Nicely Network operates as a Reddit marketing and AI-SEO agency. Its generative engine optimization, or GEO, and LLM optimization work addresses brand discoverability across ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Google AI Overview and Perplexity.
The strategic premise is that relevant, publicly accessible discussions and articles create source material that search-enabled AI systems may retrieve when answering related questions. Their text connects a brand with specific products, attributes and use cases. Google’s guidance states that a page must be indexed and eligible for a search snippet to appear as a supporting link in its AI search features.
This makes the substance of each page relevant to the campaign: its usefulness depends on how clearly it addresses the query and explains the product’s role in that category.
Reporting Separates AI Visibility From Commercial Response
The agency’s reporting framework covers AI mentions, citations, impressions and share of voice, alongside screenshots of discussions and articles ranking for targeted Google searches. Content reporting includes views and engagement, with clickthroughs, conversions and sales tracked through affiliate links or UTM parameters where available.
Ongoing updates identify performing content during the campaign, followed by a detailed report. For enterprise teams, these measures support decisions about which categories and queries need further coverage. They also distinguish a brand’s appearance in an AI answer from a visit or purchase attributed through a tracking link.
Enterprise Engagements Across Products and Markets
The current materials recommend engagements of 3 to 12 months, with a recommended monthly investment of $15,000 to $30,000. Campaign scope is based on keyword targets, product categories and the mix of Reddit discussions and article placements.
Custom enterprise engagements are available for agencies managing multi-brand portfolios and for large brands seeking coverage across multiple categories or markets. This structure allows objectives, content priorities and reporting to be planned around the portfolio’s requirements.
Better Business Advice’s November selection of Nicely Network as Best Reddit Marketing Agency for Enterprise Brands reflects that enterprise focus: category-specific content, coordinated publication across Reddit and high-authority websites, and reporting that connects visibility with trackable customer response.

Huawei and Longgang International Arts Center Unveil a Global Intelligent Venue Showcase
Published
2 hours agoon
November 1, 2026By
SHENZHEN, China, Nov. 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The On-Site Meeting for the Longgang International Arts Center Global Intelligent Venue Showcase & D+ Opening Ceremony was successfully held in Shenzhen. The event brought together government officials, industry leaders, and art experts for in-depth discussions on intelligent campus development. Huawei and Longgang International Arts Center officially launched a global intelligent venue showcase, demonstrating the powerful fusion of technology and artistry to drive ongoing innovation and usher in a new era for intelligent venues.
Where Tech Meets Art: Intelligent Venue Upgrade
Michael Ma, Vice President of Huawei and President of Huawei’s ICT Product Portfolio Mgmt & Solutions Dept, highlighted Huawei’s end-to-end engagement in the Longgang International Arts Center project, from physical construction to digital and intelligent space enablement. Huawei has consistently integrated innovative ICTs with the venue’s business scenarios, collaborating with partners to prioritize intelligent construction, premium experience, smart operations, and green, low-carbon practices. This approach has positioned the Center as a world-class cultural venue with advanced digital and intelligent capabilities. Looking ahead, Huawei will continue investing in foundational technologies and driving the integration of innovative ICTs with artistic environments, empowering cultural venues to elevate their services and operations.
At the event, the Longgang International Arts Center Global Intelligent Venue Showcase was launched, and the Digital Art Gallery (D+) officially opened, with representatives from the government, Huawei, and the Center in attendance to mark the occasion.
Exploring the Intelligent Venue: E2E Digital and Intelligent Transformation Across Construction, Management, and Operations
Wu Zhaohui, CTO of Longgang International Arts Center, shared their frontline venue operations experience in a speech titled “New Art Landmark, New Operations Practices.” He highlighted that Shenzhen’s cultural venues are rapidly evolving toward higher quality and greater diversity. Positioned as a new tech-art landmark in the Greater Bay Area, the D+ pursues a unique approach that combines deep artistic engagement, a strong technology foundation, and smart operations. Built on Longgang International Arts Center’s advanced digital and intelligent infrastructure, the venue uses data to drive operations across consumer-focused (C-end) scenarios, business (B-end) collaboration, and government (G-end) public services. This strategy fosters a sustainable ecosystem and establishes a new model for smart art spaces.
Eric He, CEO of Huawei Campus Team, delivered a keynote on how technology is reshaping art spaces. He described architecture as frozen art and emphasized that digital and intelligent transformation—from design blueprints to venue agents—is key to making buildings smart and spaces dynamic. Huawei supports the entire venue lifecycle spanning construction, management, and operations with its 10 Gbps campus network and digital platform. These “dual hubs” have helped Longgang International Arts Center achieve six advantages: intelligent construction, efficient operations, green and low-carbon practices, immersive spectating experiences, personalized services, and user operations. Looking ahead, Huawei plans to collaborate with industry partners to develop scenario-based applications, integrate regional industries, establish standards through alliances, and drive innovation-led transformation, shaping intelligent spaces and a better future together.
A third-party comprehensive assessment rated Longgang International Arts Center as “excellent” for its digital and intelligent performance in smart energy-saving and carbon reduction, achieving the highest energy efficiency class. Zhang Xiang, Deputy General Manager of Potin-tech (Beijing) Technology under CAICT, presented the results, and Weng Yizhao, CEO of Shenzhen Zhuoyue Culture Development, accepted the certificate on behalf of the venue.
Tian Ding, Senior Vice President of HMN Tech, stated that the company is dedicated to creating richer smart scenario experiences for Longgang International Arts Center and other campuses, supporting venue campuses in achieving robust operations and ongoing innovation.
Attendees toured the venue’s Intelligent Operation Center (IOC), enjoyed the DomeArt Gallery’s light show, and explored the “Great Beauty of China” exhibition in the Flight Hall as well as the “Boundless Realm” exhibit in the CAVE, fully immersing themselves in this intelligent venue.
Moving forward, as OpenHarmony and AI continue to evolve, more cultural landmarks like Longgang International Arts Center will transcend time and space, sharing the fusion of technology and artistry with wider audiences and shaping a brighter future together.
