Digital Radio Solutions for Small and Medium-Sized European Businesses

CHICAGO, June 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — For small and medium-sized businesses, reliable, high-quality communication is essential. These businesses require the audio quality and features digital radio systems provide but often find current options oversized, overpriced and unnecessarily complex.

With 65 years of experience in the two-way radio sector, Cobra Electronics has addressed these needs with the launch of its first DMR Tier II product line. Designed specifically for demanding business environments, these radios deliver dependable digital performance without the cost, bulk or complexity common in competing solutions.

The Performa Digital Series reflects Cobra’s focused approach to solving real-world business communication challenges. The line-up is cost-effective, easy to deploy and simple to use.

The Performa line-up includes two models for different work environments: the Performa 600 Digital prioritises wearability and simplicity for highly mobile teams, while the Performa 850 Digital delivers enhanced range, power and customisation for larger or more demanding sites. Both suit industries where coordination and mobility are critical, including hospitality, education, warehousing, event management and facility operations. On multi-shift, fast-moving sites, this DMR Tier II Compliant line-up will help teams communicate clearly, respond quickly and stay aligned throughout the workday.

“Clear, reliable communication is critical to keeping teams running efficiently, but many SMBs have been priced out of digital solutions,” said Jonas Forsberg, CEO of Cedar Electronics. “With the expansion of the Performa line-up to include digital, we’re making high-performance digital communication more accessible and scalable, giving businesses the reliability, durability and flexibility they need to stay connected effectively and operate with confidence.” 

Purpose-Built Solutions for Different Operational Needs

Performa 600 Digital – The Performa 600 is a compact, lightweight, digital radio built for teams that value comfort and agility. With a full 2-watt power output, a fixed antenna and a clear LED channel display, it delivers consistent, dependable communication in a wearable form factor.

Performa 850 Digital – The Performa 850 is a higher-powered digital radio designed for larger facilities, outdoor job sites and multi-storey operations. With 4-watt output, it offers extended coverage, a removable antenna and a dot matrix display for greater flexibility and customisation, making the 850 a more advanced option for organisations that require more scalability and customisation as their operations evolve.

Designed for flexible deployment, the Cobra Performa Digital Series is compatible with most DMR Tier II products currently on the market, allowing organisations to transition to digital at their own pace without replacing entire systems at once. Both models are built for durability, featuring IP67 waterproofing and MIL-STD-810H certification to ensure reliable performance in demanding conditions.

Cobra’s new Performa Digital radios are distributed exclusively through Airsys in Europe. The Cobra Performa Digital Series radios will start shipping this autumn. To learn more, visit https://eu.cobra.com/

WorkVue Launches YourVue: The Career Platform Built Around What Makes You Irreplaceable

Published

on

By

LONDON, June 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The job market is broken. Not because people lack value, but because the systems designed to recognise it were never built for them.

WorkVue is changing that. Today, the company launches YourVue, an AI-powered career navigation platform that helps people understand exactly what they bring to the world of work, and find the clearest path to where they want to go next.

The timing is deliberate. As AI, automation, and large-scale layoffs continue reshaping industries globally, millions of professionals are navigating a market that has never felt more disorienting. One candidate with 25 years of experience applied to nearly 300 roles, tailoring every application, and received almost no meaningful response. Others are screened out by automated systems before a human ever sees their name. “Job hunting in 2026,” one user told WorkVue, “can be very dehumanising and make you feel small.”

YourVue was built for them. And key features of YourVue include:

AI-powered transferable skills analysisPersonalised career mappingSkill gap insights and next-step guidanceLabor market-informed recommendations

Unlike generic job platforms or one-size-fits-all tools, YourVue maps users’ skills, values, and lived experience against real labour market data, surfacing transferable skills, career paths they may never have considered, and concrete next steps grounded in who they actually are.

“After founding Gapsquare, I saw firsthand how data could shine a light on what people bring to work,” said Dr. Zara Nanu MBE, Co-Founder of WorkVue. “YourVue takes that further, closing the gap between what people know they’re capable of and the opportunities available to them.”

Launching alongside the platform is WorkVue’s Keep Hiring People campaign, a direct response to its viral We Asked AI series, featuring real professionals and the human qualities no algorithm can replicate: judgment, adaptability, empathy, resilience, purpose.

The qualities that make people irreplaceable have never been in doubt. They just needed a platform that could see them.

YourVue is available now at app.workvue.io

Fortune Launches Inaugural Fortune Crypto 100, Ranking the Most Influential Companies and Protocols in the Global Digital Asset Ecosystem

Published

on

By

The Fortune Crypto 100 highlights leaders across 10 categories spanning traditional finance, decentralized finance, venture capital, mining, stablecoins, DATs and ETFs, and more.The ranking recognizes both crypto-native leaders and traditional financial institutions, reflecting the rapid institutionalization of digital assets and their growing importance to investors, businesses, and markets worldwide.Fortune also debuts the Fortune Crypto Innovators list, recognizing emerging companies and protocols advancing the industry through breakthroughs in technology, infrastructure, security, and adoption.

NEW YORK, June 11, 2026 /CNW/ — Fortune today unveiled the inaugural Fortune Crypto 100, a definitive ranking of the companies and protocols shaping the digital asset ecosystem. The ranking recognizes both crypto-native pioneers such as Coinbase and Uniswap and established financial institutions including JPMorgan and Robinhood, reflecting the industry’s growing reach across global finance.

The list of 100 companies and protocols spans ten categories ranging from Fintech to Venture Capital to Mining. The categories each feature individual rankings from 1 to 10. Together, the companies featured in the 10 categories illustrate how digital assets and blockchain technology have become increasingly integrated into Wall Street, global capital markets, and the broader financial system.

“This list is a testament to the people and companies who built on the initial vision of Satoshi Nakamoto, and created a major new industry, often in the face of government hostility. The list also comes at a critical juncture for a digital asset industry that is increasingly being defined by Wall Street and big business,” said Fortune Crypto Editor, Jeff John Roberts. Read the intro to the list here.

In the tradition of the iconic Fortune 500, the list was independently compiled by the editorial team at Fortune Crypto. The list is based on a series of rigorous methodologies, and is informed in part, by a survey of top crypto professionals. The results also reflect financial and technical analysis by Inca Digital, which provides data, analytics, and expertise to the world’s leading exchanges, financial institutions, regulators, and government agencies.

“Evaluating digital assets means looking past the trends and analyzing the data that isolates real signals. Inca brought financial and technical analysis across markets, sentiment, and on-chain activity to the Fortune Crypto 100 list. This is what a higher benchmark for tracking the industry looks like,” said Adam Zarazinski, CEO of Inca Digital.

For the full rankings, methodology and category definitions, and to read about the companies on the Crypto 100 list, go to: https://fortune.com/ranking/crypto/2026/.

Along with the Crypto 100, Fortune is also debuting the inaugural Fortune Crypto Innovators list, recognizing organizations that are helping to advance the digital asset ecosystem through breakthrough technology, infrastructure, security, research, adoption, and other meaningful contributions to the industry. While the Crypto 100 highlights the sector’s most influential companies and protocols, Crypto Innovators shines a light on the builders, enablers, and pioneers whose work is helping shape the future of blockchain and digital assets beyond traditional measures of scale.

The Fortune Crypto 100 and Fortune Crypto Innovators lists recognize 130 companies and protocols shaping the future of digital assets. While the Crypto 100 is dominated by U.S.-based organizations, reflecting the scale, maturity, and institutional adoption of the American market, the companion Crypto Innovators list highlights emerging leaders from across Asia-Pacific, Europe, Latin America, and Africa.

Collectively, the two lists underscore a defining characteristic of the ever-evolving blockchain economy: while market leadership remains concentrated in a handful of established hubs, innovation is increasingly global, with new technologies, infrastructure, and business models being developed around the world.

Veteran industry executive and Atria Wealth Solutions co-founder also invests in the wealthtech advisor AI platform

SAN FRANCISCO, June 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — DataDasher AI, an artificial intelligence platform built for financial advisors, today announced that wealth management executive Kevin Beard has joined its advisory board and made a significant investment in the wealthtech company.

Beard brings more than 30 years of experience across advisor recruiting, enterprise growth strategy, and broker-dealer leadership. He co-founded Atria Wealth Solutions.

“For more than three decades, I’ve watched administrative work pull advisors away from clients and growth, and now AI providers promise to change that dynamic,” Beard said. “But most AI solutions are vaporware, offering limited efficiencies and surface-level intelligence. DataDasher is built around the actual work advisors do every day, so it addresses that problem in a way the whole firm benefits. DataDasher is becoming foundational to how serious advisory firms operate.”

DataDasher helps advisory firms automate meeting preparation, client summaries, and follow-up workflows while surfacing relevant client insights across their existing systems. The platform integrates with Redtail, Orion and Bento Engine, giving advisors a centralized workflow layer across meetings, notes and follow-up. It is SOC 2-certified.

“Kevin has spent decades helping shape how wealth management firms grow and operate,” said Alexander Kearns, CEO and co-founder of DataDasher. “He understands what advisors need on the ground and how enterprises evaluate technology at scale. His decision to invest in DataDasher, both as an advisor and as an investor, reflects where serious operators see this industry heading.”

Beard co-founded Atria Wealth Solutions, where he served as chief growth officer, helping grow the firm to nearly 2,500 advisors and close to $1 billion in annual revenue before its acquisition by LPL Financial. He has held senior roles at AIG Advisor Group, Royal Alliance Associates and Rehmann. Wealth Solutions Report named Beard a top Black leader in wealth management in both 2022 and 2026, while InvestmentNews recognized him as a top figure in wealth management innovation in 2023.
