Top IPO law firm praises DFIN’s sophisticated tech and 24/7/365 service

CHICAGO, Sept. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — DFIN (NYSE: DFIN), a leading global risk and compliance solutions company, announced today that Wilson Sonsini, a leading IPO law firm that has represented technology pioneers associated with thousands of milestone innovations, is the first law firm to leverage DFIN’s ActiveDisclosure concierge platform to streamline the IPO process for its client, OneStream, Inc.

The news brings together two leaders in the business of preparing companies for initial public offerings. Wilson Sonsini has advised more U.S. technology companies on their IPOs than any other law firm and was named one of Fast Company’s Top 10 Most Innovative Companies in North America for its forward-thinking approach to improving client service with technology.  DFIN is the global leader for IPO services with 700+ traditional IPOs filed and 350+ SPACs serviced over the last six years, including a majority of PE- and VC-backed IPOs.

Wilson Sonsini utilized ActiveDisclosure’s sophisticated technology and experienced DFIN support team, which includes filing, project management, and layout experts.

“ActiveDisclosure’s enhanced functionality, paired with DFIN’s 24/7/365 premium service, provided a great client and user experience,” said Michael Nordtvedt, Co-Head of Wilson Sonsini’s Capital Markets practice. “We were thrilled to work with DFIN to support the OneStream IPO and anticipate that ActiveDisclosure will continue to significantly boost the efficiency of IPO processes.”

Wilson Sonsini is a tech-forward law firm that brings a passion for innovation, accuracy, and efficiency to their work,” said Craig Clay, President of Global Capital Markets at DFIN. “We are excited that a law firm with such deep IPO expertise is leveraging ActiveDisclosure, which has been enhanced with the features and functionality that instill the control and trust legal professionals need.”

Here’s How It Works
ActiveDisclosure transforms the IPO registration statement process and addresses some of the biggest pain points for legal firms guiding clients through an IPO. It provides an ecosystem of digital workflows, allowing attorneys to securely share documents for real-time reviews and comments by clients, bankers, auditors, and other stakeholders using ActiveDisclosure’s role-based collaboration features.

Attorneys can also leverage DFIN experts 24/7 to execute work that doesn’t require strategic legal expertise, including managing projects, tracking deadlines, providing project guidance and recommendations, laying out documents, and more. In addition, ActiveDisclosure offers:

Innovative Collaboration Features: Users can make, track, compare, and print change pages only on-demand.The Power to Retain Control of Processes and Documents: This saves time in drafting and editing documents and ensures accuracy by enabling lawyers to focus on high value activities while requesting DFIN for support.In-App Collaboration with DFIN Service Staff:  Users can assign tasks for execution by DFIN experts 24/7/365.

Streamlining the IPO process for clients 
“ActiveDisclosure significantly streamlined our Form S-1 drafting process, boosted efficiency, and enabled close collaboration with our client,” said Victor Nilsson, Wilson Sonsini partner. “The collaboration capabilities and security features saved time and helped us mitigate risks at every step.”

Historically, law firms have drafted and filed the Form S-1 using financial and other information provided by clients — a manual process that typically requires hundreds of hours of work. ActiveDisclosure transforms this process with modern collaboration software, enabling attorneys to spend more time focusing on client legal matters. It saves time in what is inherently a resource-intense, deadline-driven process.

After an IPO, a DFIN team sets up the issuer for successful transition into post-IPO financial reporting and SEC filing. That’s why clients who benefit from ActiveDisclosure during their IPOs are better prepared for post-IPO SEC compliance, including the preparation and filing of Forms 10-Q and 10-K.

“What If We Had This in 2020?” Data Viz 4 Good Bridges the Fortune 100 Data Gap for the Social Sector

Published

on

By

SAN FRANCISCO, May 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Data Viz 4 Good (DV4G) today announced the launch of its ImpactIQ platform, a breakthrough SaaS solution transforming how the social sector visualizes mission-critical data.

For founders Tyra Jean and Vanessa Francesca Ortega, both Ronald E. McNair Baccalaureate Scholars, the mission began with a pivotal question: “What if we had Data Viz 4 Good at Syracuse University back in 2020?”

CEO Tyra Jean—a former Public Policy & International Affairs Fellow at UC Berkeley and current D.S.W. candidate at the University of Southern California—developed the concept after bridging two vastly different worlds. “I worked as a data consultant for Fortune 100 companies and saw firsthand the massive gap in data infrastructure across the nonprofit sector,” said Jean. “We’re bringing enterprise-grade technology to the organizations that need it most.”

This vision, combined with the duo’s technical pedigree, has positioned them as emerging leaders in the next generation of AI-powered social infrastructure and frontrunners for Forbes’ 30 Under 30.

The platform’s technical moat is anchored by the COO Vanessa Francesca Ortega — Posse Alumni, SU Remembrance Scholar, and Newhouse’s Dean Branham Scholar. She is the founder & CEO of Civic Trust Systems, the core operating system powering municipal-scale AI platforms, including HellogovAI Inc.

“ImpactIQ is built on infrastructure originally designed to power secure, large-scale government service delivery,” said Ortega. “Through Civic Trust Systems, I developed the AI delivery model and user experience architecture that enables platforms like Hellogov. We are now applying that same level of security and privacy to the social sector.”

By leveraging Civic Trust Systems, DV4G delivers government-grade security, privacy-first data handing, and scalable AI intelligence— without the complexity of cost of traditional enterprise systems.

As a free resource for the sector, the founders co-host a DV4G Podcast on Instagram (@DataViz4GoodHQ). The next episode explores how ImpactIQ’s privacy-first architecture not only protects sensitive community data but also strengthens grant readiness and institutional trust.

DV4G is currently scaling ImpactIQ for global researchers, nonprofits, and mission-driven organizations seeking to modernize how they measure and communicate impact.

Pirelli further strengthens its commitment to the country. Investment and output expansion details will be communicated in the coming months following the finalization of the development plans

MILAN and WASHINGTON, May 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Pirelli is reinforcing its long-term commitment to the United States with a key step in its product and industrial strategy. The Georgia plant, already dedicated to the most technologically advanced products for the U.S. market—both in the High-Value segment and in Motorsport—will be further enhanced by the production of connected tires featuring Cyber™ Tyre technology. This development highlights the strategic importance of the U.S. for Pirelli’s global growth roadmap, strengthening the company’s integrated industrial and technological presence in the country.

The announcement comes as Pirelli participates in the SelectUSA Investment Summit, the flagship event promoted by the U.S. Department of Commerce, where Cyber™ Tyre is being showcased as a core innovation shaping the future of smart mobility. 

Cyber™ Tyre is the world’s first hardware-and-software system capable of collecting data and information from sensors embedded in tires, processing them through Pirelli’s proprietary software and algorithms, and, by communicating in real time with the vehicle’s electronics, enabling new functionalities integrated with driving and control systems to enhance the driving experience and increase safety levels, as well as supporting connected infrastructure.

In a highly advanced market such as the United States, where digital and smart mobility solutions are rapidly expanding, Cyber™ Tyre represents a distinctive competitive advantage for Pirelli.

At SelectUSA, Cyber™ Tyre was showcased at the Georgia State booth, a particularly meaningful presence given Pirelli’s industrial footprint in the state, where it has been established for more than 20 years.

“The start of Cyber™ Tyre production in our Rome, Georgia plant is a significant milestone for Pirelli in this country,” said Claudio Zanardo, CEO of Pirelli North America. “It reflects our commitment to bringing advanced technologies like Cyber™ Tyre closer to the market, further strengthening our industrial footprint and innovation capabilities in the United States.”

To further enhance the role of Rome as a high-tech production site, Pirelli is finalizing the introduction of the latest version of the MIRS (Modular Integrated Robotized System) production process. It will be the most advanced manufacturing process for high-end, premium production within the entire Pirelli Group, and is exclusive to the Georgia factory. The process further enhances robotized production capabilities, increasing productivity, flexibility, and quality.

It is a highly digitalized system that enables a direct link between product design and its industrial application.

This development lays the groundwork for growth in Pirelli’s production capacity in Rome, an integral part of the Group’s industrial development plans, and will further strengthen Pirelli’s presence in the United States—one of its most important and strategic markets.

The Rome, Georgia, plant specializes in high-value tire production for the North American market. It also hosts a dedicated R&D center, further strengthening its role in technological development and product innovation.

The facility is recognized for its responsible sourcing practices, including the use of FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council®)-certified natural rubber, underscoring the company’s broader environmental commitment across its supply chain.
