Strategic collaboration enables seamless technology transition as Storage Star doubles its managed portfolio

BLUE BELL, Pa., July 10, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Self Storage Manager, Inc. (SSM), a leading provider of enterprise property management software for the self-storage industry, is proud to announce the successful onboarding of 60 newly acquired Storage Star properties to the SSM Cloud platform in a single day, supporting one of the company’s largest expansion initiatives to date. With the acquisition, Storage Star has doubled the number of properties it owns, marking a significant milestone in the company’s continued growth.

SSM’s dedicated data migration, implementation, training, and client success teams collaboratively worked with Storage Star team at every stage, from migrating critical customer and operational data to validating configurations, training personnel, and coordinating go-live activities, which allowed all 60 locations to begin operating on the SSM Cloud platform in a single day.

“This implementation reflects exactly what our team is built to do,” said Kat Shenoy, CEO & Chairman of Self Storage Manager, Inc. “Large-scale conversions require much more than technology; they require experienced people, disciplined project management, and a true partnership with the client. We have the resources, well-defined processes and most importantly the confidence to migrate large number of properties in a single day. When operators are making significant investments in growth, they need a technology partner that can execute with confidence. We’re honored that Storage Star entrusted us with such an important milestone in their company’s history.”

Matt Garibaldi, Chief Executive Officer of Storage Star, credited the close collaboration between the two organizations for the project’s success.

“Doubling the size of our portfolio is an exciting milestone for Storage Star, but it also presented a significant operational challenge. The Self Storage Manager team was an outstanding partner throughout the entire process. Their preparation, communication, and commitment gave us confidence every step of the way, and the successful launch of all 60 properties in a single day exceeded our expectations. We appreciate the dedication their entire organization brought to this project. SSM top management, including their CEO Kat Shenoy, were available to our team right from the beginning of the implementation project until the successful onboarding of all properties. We have ambitious growth plans and are looking forward to a long term and mutually beneficial partnership with SSM for years to come.”

The implementation further demonstrates Self Storage Manager’s ability to support operators of all sizes—from independent owners to large multi-state portfolios—with proven migration expertise and scalable implementation processes designed to minimize disruption.

SHANGHAI, Nov. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Pigeon, a global leader in baby feeding and care, returned to the China International Import Expo (CIIE) for the fourth consecutive year, showcasing baby care products and research innovations from around the world, together with its latest achievements in product development, smart manufacturing, and sustainability in China.

Bringing Together Global Feeding Expertise to Celebrate the Boundless Joy of Newborn

The joy of welcoming a baby is a feeling families everywhere share. Cultures and ways of living differ from country to country, but the love for a baby is universal.

As a highlight of this year’s exhibition, Pigeon has brought together, for the first time at CIIE, its most popular baby bottles from markets around the world, each bottle carries global newborn blessings, backed by Pigeon’s decades of feeding research. The Lamb Blessings Newborn Bottle Gift Set, inspired by traditional Chinese zodiac, also makes its debut at the show.

Pigeon has also created a dedicated newborn care area, showcasing products and solutions developed for the essential moments of a newborn’s daily routine—from feeding and cleansing to delicate skin care.

Building on Local Innovation and Smart Manufacturing to Support Families Worldwide

With more than two decades of experience in China, Pigeon continues to strengthen its local R&D, manufacturing, and supply chain capabilities. What began with bringing products and advanced technologies from around the world to China has grown into a comprehensive network of local research, product development, and smart manufacturing capabilities.

At this year’s CIIE, the Shanghai Climate Week 2026 Climate Lighthouse White Paper was officially unveiled, with the Green Manufacturing Project at Pigeon’s Shanghai Qingpu factory selected as a model case study. Through the use of clean energy, automated production processes, greater energy efficiency, and the development of more sustainable products, the project is enhancing product quality, manufacturing efficiency, and environmental performance in tandem.

Pigeon is also bringing the benefits of greener manufacturing directly to the products families use every day. The SofTouchⅢ Pure Series feeding bottles, combine science-based feeding, elegant design, and a commitment to reducing carbon emissions. The series reduces its carbon footprint through the use of lower-carbon raw materials and clean energy in production.

Looking ahead, Pigeon aims to bring more insights and innovations developed in China to parents and babies worldwide, sharing the boundless joy of welcoming newborn with families across cultures and borders.

Home Companion Robot Mobo to Debut Globally and Open Pre-orders as AiMOGA Showcases Its Robot Family at the 2026 OMODA & JAECOO International User Summit

Published

By

WUHU, China, Nov. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As AI becomes part of everyday family life, how will it transform the homes of the future? The 2026 OMODA & JAECOO International User Summit, co-presented by CHERY, OMODA|JAECOO, ICAUR, Lepas and AiMOGA, took place in Wuhu from October 19 to 24 under the theme “DRIVE TO THE NEXT VIBE.” During the summit, AiMOGA Robotics officially launched Mobo—its consumer-grade humanoid robot for home companionship—and opened global pre-orders. The launch took embodied AI into the home, extending proven automotive-grade technologies and supply-chain capabilities beyond vehicle manufacturing to a broader ecosystem of intelligent living.

Meet Mobo: A Thoughtful, Expressive and Caring Companion. A key highlight of the summit, Mobo makes its global debut with pre-orders opening worldwide. Having previously appeared at the World Robot Conference and the World Manufacturing Convention, it has already drawn strong interest. Powered by AiMOGA’s proprietary MoAgent AI brain, Mobo goes beyond rigid single-command responses: it independently breaks down complex instructions and plans long-horizon tasks, turning Q&A into goal-driven assistance. Designed for family life, it combines spatial perception with multimodal interaction—autonomous navigation, dynamic obstacle avoidance, and voice-plus-vision conversation that identifies objects and makes companionship feel natural. With a full-body motion system of 22 degrees of freedom, it delivers smooth movements and dance routines, remembers each family member’s habits and preferences, and builds in privacy protection from the outset—a companion blending advanced technology with warmth and care.

Bringing Automotive Expertise to Robotics. Unlike start-ups building from scratch, AiMOGA draws on the extensive automotive engineering experience and global R&D network of CHERY and its brands—OMODA|JAECOO, ICAUR and Lepas—adapting proven technologies, including high-precision environmental perception and automotive-specific large AI models, for robotics. During the summit, its full robot portfolio will appear in zones recreating real-world applications: police robots patrolling mock traffic settings, healthcare robots guiding visitors, Mornine acting as an AI presenter, the Argos Pro quadruped demonstrating following and load carrying, and Mobo offering hands-on demonstrations as pre-orders open. AiMOGA already operates robots across more than 100 use cases—from dealerships and retail to traffic management, security, education and healthcare—with cumulative deliveries exceeding 3,000 units across more than 60 countries and regions.

Beyond Automotive Manufacturing. As these brands move from vehicles into robotics, they extend accumulated R&D, supply-chain and manufacturing expertise to wider intelligent applications; automotive–robotics integration provides the industrial foundation, while the MoAgent brain supports understanding, planning and execution. Guided by the philosophy “In Somewhere, For Somewhere, Be Somewhere,” CHERY, OMODA|JAECOO, ICAUR, Lepas and AiMOGA are bringing intelligent technology into everyday life and delivering meaningful support to people worldwide.
