on

DUBAI, UAE, Dec. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Phygital International today announces that the Games of the Future 2025, hosted in the UAE will kick off on 21st November.

The action-packed, multi-day tournament promises to be the undisputed highlight of next year’s global sporting calendar. The glittering spectacle will bring together nations from all over the world, all with their sights firmly set on the ultimate goal: being crowned champions at the Games of the Future 2025.

Phygital clubs from around the world will also be delighted to hear that the first four phygital disciplines for the Games have been officially revealed as Phygital Football, Phygital Basketball, Phygital Shooter, and Phygital Dancing – with a wide range of further exciting disciplines to be announced over the coming months.

Marrying perfectly the physical and digital sporting worlds, the Games of the Future is a groundbreaking concept that redefines conventions by incorporating advanced technologies into competitive disciplines. Players compete in their chosen discipline across two rounds: the first focuses on physical sporting performance, followed by a second round where players look to showcase their digital gaming prowess.

Qualifying for a hotly contested place at the undeniable pinnacle event in the phygital sporting calendar is well underway. World Phygital Community (WPC) members have already held GOTF Minors, which featured rival phygital athletes from specific parts of their country competing against each other in their chosen disciplines. The winners from the GOTF Minors have progressed to the GOTF Majors, where they will face GOTF Minor winners from their country.

The next step on the path to the Games of the Future is for the GOTF Major winners from around the world to compete in the GOTF 2025 Qualifiers, where only the top performing clubs will secure a coveted spot at the 2025 in November.

Nis Hatt, CEO of Phygital International, shared his enthusiasm for the journey ahead: “We are excited to lead the charge in shaping the future of sports as we set the stage for a landmark event at the Games of the Future 2025 in the UAE.

“This is more than just a competition – it’s a convergence of global talent and innovation, where the world’s best will come together in an unprecedented arena. Through phygital sports, a cutting-edge blend of physical and digital competition, we’re redefining the possibilities in athletics and unveiling a transformative new chapter in the world of sports. We can’t wait to witness these future champions thrive and inspire.”

The UAE’s selection as host, officially announced during the inaugural World Phygital Summit in Istanbul, Turkey, in June 2024, further solidifies its position as a global leader in cutting-edge sports and esports events. The event will highlight the Emirates’ world-class capabilities in hosting global sporting tournaments and align with the UAE’s broader vision to be a gaming and technological advancement hub. The UAE’s commitment to fostering a dynamic gaming ecosystem, supported by its cutting-edge infrastructure and government-backed initiatives, will undoubtedly create a perfect environment for this sporting spectacle.

The Games of the Future is open to all, welcoming participants and spectators from all backgrounds. Stay tuned, further details will be unveiled as this event draws closer.

Mili and Egnyte Partner to put Client Documents to work in Financial Advice

Published

By

The partnership brings Egnyte’s secure content platform and Mili’s AI agents together, so advice firms can deliver more comprehensive, personalized advice at scale.

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Mili, an AI platform for wealth management firms, and Egnyte, a leader in secure content collaboration, intelligence, and governance, today announced a partnership that brings Mili’s AI agents to client documents in Egnyte. Advisors work from a file or a whole client folder alongside data from the firm’s CRM, portfolio and planning systems, under each advisor’s Egnyte permissions.

Kitces Research finds that reviewing client documents is the most common way advisors use AI. Its productivity research puts a new financial plan at 15 to 40 hours of team time.

Advisors use Mili’s agents to model the tax cost of moving a client’s accounts into the firm’s strategy, weigh a rebalance against unrealized gains, summarize a bonus agreement and build a financial snapshot from a statement. The agents link answers to their sources and flag what an analysis may still need.

David Ringler, Managing Director at Onyx Bridge Wealth Group ($1.6B+ AUM), said, “Egnyte and Mili are two valuable pieces of technology in our stack, and bringing them together has changed how our practice runs. Mili’s meeting prep and planning agents have become significantly better with Egnyte data behind them.”

Chirag Gandhi, Co-Founder and CEO of Mili, said, “How many clients an advice firm can serve well has long been capped. It is set by the work of understanding each client’s financial life. Agentic AI is changing that, helping advice firms uplift client capacity by accelerating the delivery of high-quality advice.”

Kyle Blair, Director of Global Financial Services at Egnyte, said, “Egnyte helps financial services firms accelerate critical business operations by turning document-heavy tasks into faster, connected, and revenue-generating workflows. Our partnership enables Mili’s AI agents to securely access and work on customer data within Egnyte for better business outcomes.”

The integration is live for mutual customers. Building on Mili’s work with hundreds of advice firms, it aims to put a firm’s full client knowledge into its advice.

About Egnyte

Egnyte is a leader in secure content collaboration, intelligence, and governance, trusted by more than 23,000 customers to increase employee productivity, drive operational efficiencies, and secure mission-critical content. Egnyte’s AI-powered platform empowers organizations to create, share, and protect their information at scale, with specialized solutions designed to meet the unique needs of organizations in architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC), financial services, life sciences, and other industries.
