Bloomberg Expands Chatbots in IB for Easy Collaboration Across Firms

Chatbots help IB community save time and surface insights in secure communications with counterparties

NEW YORK, May 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Bloomberg today expanded its IB Connect solutions to transform the way financial professionals interact with their counterparties and collaborate with front-, middle-, and back-office colleagues. IB Connect: Cross-Firm Chatbots (“bots”) is an add-on service that helps Bloomberg Anywhere users bring in-house, proprietary bots to IB chat rooms with multiple firms.

Why it’s important: Clients can build their bots to automatically surface relevant information from their internal applications and share it in their IB communications with other firms. This includes status updates from order management systems, market reports from research content management platforms, and trade ideas from client relationship management tools. By bringing a bot into an IB chat room, colleagues and counterparties can get information by directing a question to the bot without having to leave their discussions.

How it works: The solution uses a two-way API enriched with Bloomberg’s NLP to provide structured data and context to IB chats directed to the bot. That technology is fine-tuned for capital markets and understands finance lingo to help make communications more machine-readable. Whether a bot is posting a notification or responding to a user query, relevant information like order updates and market commentary can be delivered by the bot in neatly organized visuals called BCards. The bots can also post free text, tables, links and @mentions. IT teams can customize bots for their firm’s unique tech stacks, in line with Bloomberg’s API protocols.

The big picture: The bots complement Bloomberg’s suite of IB Connect solutions designed for users to seamlessly integrate their IB communications with in-house workflow tools, helping streamline collaboration with colleagues and counterparties. This new solution builds on IB Connect: Intra-Firm Chatbots as part of Bloomberg’s efforts to make it easier for the IB community to network across the buy- and sell-side and collaborate on multi-asset investment opportunities.

Roger Birch, Head of Product: Communication and Collaboration Systems for IB at Bloomberg, said: “Financial market professionals spend too much of their valuable time pivoting between applications and juggling hundreds of chat requests. By welcoming Cross-Firm Chatbots, we’re helping our clients build information hyperloops so they can focus on what truly matters in their chats with counterparties – delivering insights, building client relationships, and sharing the next big trade idea.”

How Schools Can Choose Interactive Donor Recognition That Lasts Beyond GivingTuesday

Published

on

By

Rocket Alumni Solutions outlines practical evaluation criteria for schools seeking to preserve donor stories and support year-round stewardship.

BOSTON, Nov. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — With GivingTuesday and year-end giving approaching, Rocket Alumni Solutions is sharing practical considerations for schools choosing an interactive donor Hall of Fame or digital donor wall. The starting point is the story a school wants to tell: who contributed, what they made possible and how their generosity connects to the community.

A donor’s name can lead visitors to the history of a scholarship, a renovated performing arts space or a program that shaped generations of students. Interactive recognition gives schools room to preserve that context alongside photographs and other media, with collections that can grow as new contributions become part of the school’s history.

For advancement teams, the year-end planning question extends beyond how a display looks at launch. Schools also need to understand how people will find donor stories, who will keep them current and what the project will require over time.

Compare the experience, upkeep and full cost

Schools comparing donor recognition platforms can use six questions to structure demonstrations and written proposals:

Can visitors find the story? Test searches using a donor’s name and browse the collections a visitor would expect. Check whether each profile explains the contribution and its connection to the school.Who keeps recognition current? Ask a staff member to add a profile, correct a name and update a photograph during the demonstration. Confirm who handles content preparation, review and future updates.Can people use it comfortably? Review text readability, contrast, navigation and the physical reach of the campus display. Ask vendors to demonstrate accessibility features and provide documentation for the school’s review.What can each story include? Compare support for photographs, video and written narratives. Confirm any media limits and whether staff can add context without rebuilding the collection.Does it fit the wider school story? Evaluate how donor recognition can sit alongside alumni profiles, academic achievements, arts programs and athletic history while remaining easy to find.What does the written quote cover? Separate recurring software costs from hardware, installation and other services. Confirm content-upload assistance, support hours, renewal terms and responsibility for ongoing maintenance.

Plan for recognition throughout the year

A manageable first collection might focus on scholarship supporters or the people behind a campus project. Before publication, schools should verify names, secure permission for photographs and personal stories, and confirm each donor’s recognition preferences, including requests for anonymity.

Advancement, communications and athletics staff can agree on how stories will be organized and who will approve changes. A clear owner and an update schedule help the collection remain useful after a campaign ends or staff responsibilities change.

Recognition should also be evaluated on its own terms. Schools can review whether profiles are accurate, stories are easy to discover and visitors can use the experience.

Connect campus recognition with online discovery

Rocket Alumni Solutions’ History Showcase supports donor recognition alongside alumni stories, school achievements and historical collections. Recognition sites can be explored on the web as well as on a compatible campus touchscreen, and staff can maintain content through Rocket’s editor.

Schools can bring a sample donor story and their evaluation questions to a demonstration to discuss content preparation, display placement, support and project-specific pricing.

About Rocket Alumni Solutions

Rocket Alumni Solutions partners with more than 1,500 schools and organizations, including the PGA Tour, New York University, Arizona State University and Virginia Tech. The company helps communities celebrate achievements, preserve their history and recognize the people who shaped them.

Rocket Alumni Solutions’ touchscreen software maintains an 80 Net Promoter Score, reflecting exceptional ease of use and customer satisfaction.

Rocket Alumni Solutions serves schools and organizations of all sizes. Every plan includes unlimited storage, pre-built templates, remote content management and plug-and-play setup. Schools receive ongoing support as their recognition collections grow.
