BUENOS AIRES, Argentina, Aug. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Biosidus, an Argentine biotechnology company with more than four decades of experience in the development and manufacturing of biosimilar medicines, announced that its new bioreactor plant is now operational, increasing the company’s biologics production capacity and reinforcing its ability to support potential international demand.

Cellebrite Brings Battlefield Intelligence to the Armed Forces with Launch of Portable Tactical Extraction Kit (C-TEK)

Built around Cellebrite’s industry-leading digital forensics capabilities, C-TEK helps forward-deployed teams quickly triage data from phones, SIM cards, drones and portable media to advance their missions

TYSONS CORNER, Va. and PETAH TIKVA, Israel, Aug. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Cellebrite DI Ltd. (Nasdaq: CLBT), a global leader in AI-powered Digital Investigative and Intelligence solutions for the public and private sectors, today announced the launch of the Cellebrite Tactical Extraction Kit (C-TEK), a ruggedized, all-in-one mobile forensics field kit packaged in a standard-size backpack, giving military teams the hardware, software and power to access and analyze devices at the point of capture. Designed for units operating in disconnected environments, C-TEK equips the armed forces to act on device data in real time, strengthening tactical, operational and strategic decision-making at the speed modern conflict demands.

As digital devices increasingly shape the course of modern conflict, the intelligence they hold is now critical to a mission, revealing locations, connections and operational plans. However, this intelligence has a short half-life. When a military unit has only minutes to complete a mission, the value of digital data can be lost if the device isn’t extracted on the spot. Mission-critical data and intelligence are lost or an enemy battlefield advantage gained. Furthermore, sending devices to a lab and waiting days or months for analysis often means the information may be outdated and unusable by the time it is returned.

C-TEK closes that gap by bringing extraction and analysis capabilities to the edge. It is a ready-made bundle of ruggedized hardware and Cellebrite software engineered to access a wide range of phones, computers and other devices in the field. C-TEK is designed first for military units operating in disconnected environments, where sensitive site exploitation is a core mission task and the speed of the data extraction directly affects follow-on operations. Rather than routing devices to a lab or relying on a single trained analyst, units can deploy C-TEK across the team, extending the capability to every operator.

“Battlefield intelligence has an expiration date measured in minutes, not months,” said Marcus Jewell, chief revenue officer at Cellebrite. “With C-TEK, we are equipping the armed forces — not just a trained intelligence analyst — to capture and act on that data before it disappears. This is about giving units the tools to fulfill their missions with the intelligence they need, exactly when and where it matters most. We are committed to putting more cutting-edge intelligence tools directly in the hands of the operators who protect nations, so that no critical piece of intelligence is left behind.”

C-TEK marks the first step in a broader Cellebrite effort to build an end-to-end field intelligence solution for defense and intelligence customers around the world. The Company is developing a portable version of its Pathfinder analytics platform, an on-premises AI capability, an upgraded CFID V4 for drone forensics and a mobile kit that enables small teams to quickly set up digital forensics operations without existing local infrastructure for short-term deployments. These innovations will expand and extend Cellebrite’s capabilities further toward the edge of operations.

About Cellebrite

Cellebrite’s (Nasdaq: CLBT) mission is to protect communities, nations and businesses as a global leader in digital investigative and intelligence solutions. More than 7,000 global law enforcement agencies, defense and intelligence organizations and enterprises trust Cellebrite’s AI-powered software portfolio to make forensically sound digital data more accessible and actionable. Cellebrite technology allows customers to accelerate nearly 3 million legally sanctioned investigations annually, enhance sovereign security, elevate operational efficacy and efficiency, and enable advanced mobile research and application security. Available via cloud, on-premises and hybrid deployments, Cellebrite’s technology enables its customers around the globe to advance their missions, elevate public safety and safeguard data privacy.

Paris Saint-Germain and Coca-Cola France are pleased to announce a new global partnership through 2029, marking the return of the collaboration between two of the world’s most recognized brands.

A new Coca-Cola experience at Parc des Princes

As part of the new partnership, Coca-Cola and Paris Saint-Germain will soon unveil a new experiential space at Parc des Princes, designed as a gathering place open to all supporters.

Richard Heaselgrave, Chief Revenue Officer, Paris Saint-Germain

For more than twenty years, we have shared in the collective passion of Paris Saint-Germain fans.

G-P Delivers Compliant Global Workforce Intelligence to Enterprise AI Tools

G-P’s new MCP Server securely connects real-time global employment data and insights to Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and existing corporate agentic workflows

BOSTON, Aug. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — G-P (Globalization Partners), the leader in AI-driven global employment, ranked No. 1 by industry analysts, today announced the launch of its Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server. The new technology enables organizations worldwide to securely stream real-time global workforce data directly into their preferred AI tools, including Anthropic Claude, OpenAI ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Cursor and core HR and payroll systems like Workday, ADP, Paylocity and SAP.

Global workforce data has historically been fragmented across static databases or isolated behind complex API integrations. Introducing AI into global HR and compliance workflows requires rigorous oversight to navigate international labor laws, privacy regulations like GDPR and localized compliance schemas. The G-P MCP Server solves this challenge by serving as an enterprise-grade, secure bridge between an organization’s broader AI ecosystem and G-P’s proprietary global employment infrastructure.

“AI systems are only as reliable as the data and security guardrails behind them,” said GK Konduri, chief product officer at G-P. “With our MCP Server, G-P is enabling true, enterprise-grade agentic workforce management, bringing more than a decade of global HR intelligence and compliance directly into our customers’ existing AI environments. Organizations can now build and deploy powerful, compliant agentic HR workflows inside the AI interfaces their teams already use.”

Powering Real-Time Agentic HR Workflows

G-P’s MCP Server transforms how global HR and People Operations teams access workforce insights. HR professionals can now interact with international workforce data directly inside their preferred AI interfaces turning static employee databases into instant, strategic workflows, including:

• Instant localized reporting: Eliminates hours of manual data aggregation. Simply ask an AI assistant a question such as “Show me a list of EOR employees in Budapest, Hungary with their benefit details” and instantly get a verified table with localized benefit packages and exact costs in local currency backed by G-P deterministic intelligence and local compliance schemas.
• Context-aware follow-ups: HR teams can dive deeper into employee records without re-keying data. Natural follow-up prompts like “How much time off does Sarah Jenkins have?” or “What is her benefits enrollment status?” leverage real-time context without requiring low-level API configurations or repetitive prompting. 
• Automated change management: HR teams can use change request APIs to streamline employee updates, like salary or title changes, by automatically triggering localized compliance workflows powered by G-P’s Global Compliance Engine (GCE). 
• Custom agentic automation: HR operations and People Analytics teams can connect MCP-compatible tools to build tailored HR dashboards, automate routine employee lifecycle tasks and build custom workflows directly within their existing workspaces. 

Enterprise Governance & Security Architecture

Easy to install in any compatible client, the G-P MCP Server ensures high security, data privacy and operational governance across AI interactions:

• Human-in-the-loop guardrails: Built-in safety mechanisms automatically re-route high-risk agentic actions, requiring explicit human review and approval to maintain control and accountability.
• Deep security design: AI agents may only access specific data payloads that the user is authorized to view, with integrated redaction capability.
• Lossless context delivery: Prioritizes complete compliance information delivery with industry leading accuracy and specificity.
• Universal interoperability: Operates seamlessly across any MCP-compatible software suite, transforming general-purpose tools into specialized global workforce intelligence engines with a single click.

By bridging existing enterprise systems with G-P’s deep proprietary global HR, legal and compliance expertise, we continue to set the standard for secure, compliant and scalable global employment.

About G-P

G-P (Globalization Partners) is the leader in global employment, ranked No. 1 in every industry analyst report.
