PARIS, July 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — European fintech Petale, which operates innovative financial services from its digital infrastructure and democratises access to new forms of property and wealth management, is strengthening its governance with the formation of a prestigious strategic board.

This non-executive management body advises the group in its strategy to align synergies between traditional finance and decentralised finance using new technologies. It is composed of:

Pr. Christian de Boissieu, Professor Emeritus of Economics at the University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, vice-president of the Circle of Economists, former president of the Economic Analysis Council to the Prime Minister and regulator at the French Financial Markets Authority and former adviser of the World Bank and the European Commission. He provides, among other things, an insight into tokenomics, currency models, financing models, as well as compliance aspects.

Dr Pascal Lorot, Doctor of Economics, founding president of the Choiseul Institute and inventor of the concept of Geo-economics, brings his strategic, diplomatic and geopolitical expertise. His brilliant track record in both the institutional and private sectors, his unique network of young international economic decision-makers and his laureates from the Choiseul Institute rewarded for their innovation and influence, are all major assets to accelerate Petale’s international expansion.

Angélique Gérard, a graduate of INSEAD, is a special advisor to Xavier Niel, Chairman of the ILIAD Group, where she was Director of Free Subscriber Relations for 22 years and Chairperson of 8 subsidiaries, and a member of the Executive Committee of Iliad, of which she is a founding director. She was noticed by the Choiseul Institute, which awarded her first place in the “100 leaders of the French economy under 40” list in 2015, thus succeeding Emmanuel Macron at the top of the list. In 2020, she was ranked among the 40 most inspiring French women by Forbes.

Gwenaelle Avice-Huet, a physics graduate and holding an engineering degree from the Corps des Ponts et Chaussées, is a member of Schneider Electric’s Executive Committee, Executive Director of Strategy and Sustainable Development. She is also a member of the Board of Directors of Air France KLM. Gwenaelle previously spent over 10 years at Engie where she was a member of the executive committee in charge of global renewable energy and Managing Director North America. Gwenaelle brings her engineering and digital skills and her knowledge of the American market.

Florence Tondu-Mélique, Chairman and CEO of Zurich France and a member of the Group’s executive team. A graduate of HEC Paris and Harvard Business School, she began her career at McKinsey & Company before joining AXA Investment Managers and then Hiscox, at the heart of the global insurance market at Lloyd’s of London, where she held various executive roles including Chief Operating Officer for Europe. She is a director of listed and private companies in France and the UK. Florence brings her skills in strategy, risk management, governance and knowledge of the financial services sector.

Kevin Polizzi, Chairman of Unitel Group and founder of Jaguar Networks, one of France’s leading providers of secure data hosting with PCI-DSS banking accreditation, telecom solutions and intelligent services. Kevin brings skills in digital transformation, cybersecurity and data governance.

The members of the strategic board all bring their experience and vision in different areas of development to efficiently cover the high demand for accountability for “entreprises à missions et impact” (French status whereby businesses commit to corporate social responsibility initiatives) and new customer uses.

“With this strategic board, we are consolidating our governance in order to accelerate our development in this new and fast growing market of asset tokenisation. As such, we will continue to create new payment, investment and asset management experiences for our customers,” Babacar N. Seck, Chairman and Founder of Petale Group.

Petale continues to deploy its technologies, automating the investment and wealth management processes. Its value proposition responds to a very open market initiated to new types of digital assets. The group is preparing to open up its financial services via its mobile application to the largest possible number of qualified investors.

Haloid Solutions Expands Access to Radio Equipment by Offering Flexible Financing and Leasing Solutions Named HaloidFLEX

Published

on

By

NEW YORK, April 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As part of Haloid Solutions’ long-term commitment to helping businesses and municipalities acquire critical communications equipment despite budgetary constraints, Haloid now offers specialized financing and leasing programs through its HaloidFLEX program.

Designed to ensure that companies and governments have the equipment they need without costly capital expenditures outlays, HaloidFLEX offers financing for equipment purchased directly from manufacturers or local radio dealers. HaloidFLEX financing offers zero percent and low-interest options as well as predictable monthly payments for qualified buyers. HaloidFLEX clients can even opt to incorporate extended support services and protections into their financing to prepare for accidents, theft, or equipment losses. This gives companies peace of mind with one low monthly payment.

For organizations that don’t want or need to own equipment long-term, the HaloidFLEX leasing program offers similar benefits with potential tax advantages. Companies can lease brand new equipment and upgrade or return it at lease-end as needed. For companies seeking flexible options – or those that are interested in upgrading to the latest technology as it becomes available – leasing makes perfect sense.

One of the added benefits of each program is that HaloidFLEX allows clients to bundle services and protections that would normally be billed separately. Accidental damage, theft, and loss protections can be put in place, so that there’s never a lapse in communication if a radio fails. Extended warranties are also available upon request, so companies can customize their financing and protection to fit their budget and safeguard their equipment simultaneously.

According to a Haloid Solutions spokesperson, “Bundling expenses simply makes sense. It reduces the need for multiple policies and flexes with organizations to ensure critical communication equipment is available when needed while guaranteeing that the company’s investment is protected for the life of the equipment.”

HaloidFLEX financing and leasing programs are available to qualified businesses and municipalities nationwide. To learn more or request a customized quote, visit HaloidSolutions.com.

Haloid Solutions is the go-to resource for U.S. businesses and municipalities in search of financing and leasing for two-way radios, walkie talkies, communications equipment, accessories, and services. Focused on reliability, affordability, and performance, Haloid strives to equip professionals in all communication-based industries with the resources they need most.

Vipboss Marks Earth Day with Renewed Commitment to Green Energy Solutions

Published

By

NEW YORK, April 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As Earth Day draws global attention to environmental responsibility, Vipboss, a specialist manufacturer and developer of lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery packs for energy storage and mobility applications, is underscoring its long‑term commitment to sustainable energy practices through its Environmental Advocacy. This advocacy is devoid of ornate language; its inspiration stems from the brand’s unwavering conviction in LiFePO4 batteries as a green energy solution. To align this message with practical action, the brand is also running a themed sales campaign on its official website during April 18th to 30th. It highlights how practical product solutions, rather than abstract concepts, can support cleaner energy use in everyday life.

Across the world, energy consumption patterns are undergoing rapid change. Households, outdoor users, and light‑mobility sectors are increasingly seeking energy systems that are safe, sustainable, and low‑emission. Within this shift, LiFePO4 batteries have emerged as a preferred technology for clean‑energy applications. Their long service life, high safety profile, and absence of cobalt, which is an element associated with higher environmental and ethical risks, position them as a responsible choice in the global transition toward greener power.

LiFePO4 technology forms the foundation of Vipboss’s approach to sustainable energy. Its extended cycle life reduces the frequency of battery replacement, lowering resource consumption and easing the environmental burden associated with disposal. The material’s inherent stability also minimizes the risk of thermal runaway, offering a safer experience in homes, recreational vehicles, and public environments. In practical use cases such as home backup systems, RV travel, and golf‑course operations, LiFePO4 batteries deliver efficient storage and stable output, helping reduce reliance on fossil‑fuel‑based energy sources and supporting lower‑carbon lifestyles.

Vipboss’s environmental advocacy extends beyond the technical advantages of its products. The brand promotes responsible energy use as an integral part of sustainable living, emphasizing that product design and informed application must work together to achieve meaningful environmental outcomes. As a provider of energy solutions for home, travel, and leisure scenarios, Vipboss continues to participate in the long‑term process of green transformation through ongoing technological refinement and product evolution.

Earth Day serves as a reminder that lasting environmental impact is built through small, consistent actions. Looking ahead, Vipboss will continue advancing safer, more durable, and more efficient energy products that support individuals and families in adopting more sustainable energy habits. Through these efforts, the brand aims to contribute enduring value to the wider adoption of clean energy and the collective pursuit of a more sustainable future.

About Vipboss

Vipboss is a specialist in the lithium battery industry, focusing on the research, production, and manufacturing of lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery packs. The company is committed to advancing battery technology with an emphasis on reliable performance, safety, and extended service life.
