Ryvid introduces fresh new Colorways and Accessories for Anthem Electric Motorcycle, plus new Financing options

Ryvid, Inc

Following last month’s announcement of a complete 3D parts catalog available to owners of the American-built Ryvid Anthem electric motorcycle, the California-based company is continuing to expand at a phenomenal rate. The month of March is filled to the brim with announcements, headlined by two new colors for the 2024 Ryvid Anthem, including the distinctive Photon Blue and Plasma Yellow. These colorways join the existing line up of Galactica Black, Rapid White, Carbon Grey and Atomic Gold, expanding customer choice to six desirable colors. And thanks to the 3D Parts Catalog at ryvid.com, existing Anthem owners will be able to purchase body panels in the latest colors or even mix and match. The vibrant new Photon Blue and Plasma Yellow are perfect for the Spring and Summer, helping to ensure the clean lines of the Ryvid Anthem really stand out. ACCESSORIES Another new Ryvid initiative is its Accessories range, which will enable owners to personalize and customize their Anthem. As a special incentive for new owners, Ryvid is offering a $350 Accessories Bundle Credit for anyone purchasing an Anthem before April 15, 2024, allowing the new Accessories to be supplied with the bike. The Accessories are intended to make the electric motorcycle more convenient for users, providing a frequently-requested cargo rack, for example, which can carry up to 25 lb. The rack takes advantage of the threaded holes in every Anthem frame, which were always intended to fulfil this function. Other useful Accessories include a phone mount, Level 2 charging adapter, and helmet lock. Owners can also choose to change the color of their Anthem seat and bodywork or order a replacement battery. The full list of new Ryvid Accessories includes the following: Anthem Rear Rack - $195 Handlebar Phone mount - $55 Anthem Charging Cable 110V - $25 Anthem Charging Cable 220V - $40 Level 2 J-plug Charging Adapter - $95 Anthem 4.3 kWh Battery Pack with Integrated Fast Charger - $3995 Anthem Seat (4 color options) - $250 Helmet Cable Lock - $35 Power Controller Upgraded by ASI - $995 The high-performance Power Controller Upgrade by ASI is a simple plug-n-play swap, allowing Anthem owners can enjoy a 30% increase in acceleration without sacrificing range. The ASI Controller Kit includes a wiring harness that plugs straight into the Anthem. DIY installation instructions are available for new and existing Anthem motorcycles. Customers who order the ASI Controller with a new Anthem will only pay a discounted $800 for the controller once it’s ready to ship in April. FINANCE PLANS By popular demand, Ryvid has partnered with FreedomRoad Financial to offer competitive rates and extended term financing options. To see if an applicant qualifies, they simply click the “I Want to Finance” option on the Anthem page at ryvid.com and a member of the Lightning Squad will walk them through the process. The introduction of the new San Bernardino, CA factory facility has led to faster production schedules. This has not only allowed the company to ship the Anthem within four weeks of order completion, but customers can now select from four shipping options. This includes California collection and expedites national delivery to ensure new customers are enjoying the Anthem Electric as soon as possible. At the point of purchase, all California residents will pay tax and registration prior to shipping, ensuring their Anthem is ready to go upon arrival. Residents of all other states will pay the applicable tax and registration at their local DMV. SHOWS, DEMOS & MODEL LAUNCH At the Mama Tried motorcycle show in Milwaukee, WI in February, Ryvid was not only an event sponsor but supported the entry of a modified Anthem by Thor Drake from SeeSee Motorcycles. Competing in the Ryvid-sponsored EV class race, he placed third after an exciting battle. Additionally, Ryvid displayed the Anthem and provided demo rides to show attendees. Looking forward to April 19-21, Ryvid will be a title sponsor of The One Motorcycle Show in Portland, OR. There are big plans for this community event, which will again see the Anthem on display and available for demo rides. As a custom motorcycle show, many customized Anthems will also be on display for the first time, inspiring current and future owners. However, the major news is that Ryvid will debut its brand-new electric motorcycle at The One Moto Show, giving visitors and attending media the chance to see this exciting new model in the flesh for the very first time. More details will be revealed next month, but the groundbreaking concept will offer a revolutionary approach to motorcycle design, purchasing and customization. We can’t wait to reveal it to everybody at The One Moto Show and beyond.

Diamonds of Tomorrow: Adamas One Corp. (NASDAQ: JEWL) and the Lab-Grown Evolution

Adamas One Corp. (JEWL)

In the realm of luxury, few items hold as much allure and fascination as natural diamonds. Yet, beneath their shimmering surface lies a shadow of environmental concerns and sustainability issues. With the global demand for diamonds soaring to unprecedented levels, questions about their ecological footprint have begun to loom large. However, amidst this burgeoning awareness, a compelling alternative has emerged: lab-grown diamonds. Offering a sustainable and environmentally-friendly alternative to their mined counterparts, lab-grown diamonds have witnessed a meteoric rise in popularity among consumers. The market for lab-grown diamonds is on an upward trajectory, fueled by increasing adoption in the fashion, jewelry, and industrial sectors. According to a report by Allied Market Research, the global lab-grown diamonds market was valued at $24.0 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach a staggering $59.2 billion by 2032, boasting a robust compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.6%. Enter Adamas One Corp. (NASDAQ: JEWL), a key player in the evolving landscape of the diamond industry. Positioned amidst a shift towards sustainability, Adamas One Corp. is at the forefront of pioneering greener practices in diamond production. In January of last year, Adamas One unveiled its financial results for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022. The company's revenue milestone, exceeding $1.78 million in lab-grown diamond sales, marked a pivotal shift from research and development to commercial production. CEO Jay Grdina's strategic vision emphasized the importance of reaching full manufacturing capacity at the Greenville, S.C., facility by May 2023, laying the foundation for sustained growth. Scaling for Growth Throughout last year, Adamas One focused on scaling its production capabilities to meet growing demand. By March 2023, the company had achieved full production capacity at its South Carolina facility, boasting 12 reactors producing approximately 3,000 rough carats of diamonds monthly. This achievement positioned Adamas One Corp. as a leading player in the lab-grown diamond market, poised to generate over $12 million in annual revenue from its Greenville operations. November 2023 marked a significant milestone for JEWL with the successful creation of colorless lab-grown diamonds in the D, E, and F color ranges. This breakthrough, resulting from extensive internal R&D efforts, underscored the company's commitment to quality and innovation. CEO Jay Grdina's strategic roadmap highlighted the strategic importance of this development, particularly in meeting the stringent demands of the jewelry and technology sectors. A transformative moment for JEWL occurred in November 2023 with the establishment of Adamas Technologies, a wholly-owned subsidiary dedicated to harnessing lab-grown diamond solutions for the technology industry. Led by seasoned industry professionals, including COO Jerry McGuire, Adamas Technologies positioned itself at the forefront of semiconductor innovation. The subsidiary's focus on research, partnerships, and deployment underscored Adamas One Corp.'s commitment to diversification and market expansion. Setting the Stage for Growth Just last month, JEWL reaffirmed its strategic initiatives and market penetration efforts through a comprehensive shareholder update. The company's multifaceted approach encompassed delivering high-quality lab-grown diamond materials, launching the Elle Jolie luxury jewelry line, and leveraging its IP and R&D capabilities to explore new sectors, notably the technology industry. CEO Jay Grdina's forward-looking vision emphasized the company's commitment to sustainable growth and value creation for shareholders. More recently, March 2024 brought accolades for Adamas One Corp. as it received the prestigious title of "Best Lab-Grown Manufacturer for 2023" from Manufacturing Technology Insights Magazine. This recognition underscored the company's unwavering dedication to innovation and excellence in lab-grown diamond manufacturing, reinforcing its position as an industry leader. Charting the Future In a strategic move to accelerate innovation, Adamas One Corp. (NASDAQ: JEWL) today announced the formation of a Board of Advisors for its subsidiary, Adamas One Technologies. Comprising esteemed industry experts, the board will provide invaluable guidance as Adamas One Technologies explores novel applications for lab-grown diamonds in the semiconductor industry. This initiative reflects the company's commitment to fostering collaboration and driving technological advancements. “We are honored to have such distinguished industry experts join the Board of Advisors for Adamas One Technologies," stated Jerry McGuire, COO of Adamas One Corp and newly appointed board member. "Their collective wealth of experience and expertise will undoubtedly propel Adamas One Technologies to new heights as we explore the vast potential of lab-grown diamonds in semiconductor applications. I am excited to collaborate with this esteemed group as we drive innovation and shape the future of technology." As Adamas One Corp. (NASDAQ: JEWL) continues to push the boundaries of innovation in the lab-grown diamond industry, investors can expect continued growth and market leadership. With a steadfast focus on quality, sustainability, and technological innovation, Adamas One Corp. remains poised to shape the future of the diamond industry.

Beyond Big Tech - How Brand Engagement Network (NASDAQ: BNAI) Is Shaping The Future Of AI

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Generative AI has taken the world by storm but the not-so-secret reality is it's largely owned by Big Tech. While many thought that AI would become a thriving competitive ecosystem where start-ups and established companies alike could take advantage of new technology, the truth is much more stark. Almost every startup, new player and even AI research lab relies on Big Tech. They depend on the computing infrastructure of Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT), Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) and Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) to train their AI systems, as well as the extensive consumer market reach of these firms to deploy and market their AI products. In fact, many AI companies opt to license and rebrand AI models – in a method referred to as “wrapping” – that were originally developed and sold by these tech giants or their affiliated startups. While these systems may be operational, it begs the question; ‘By using AI, are we granting even more power to these industry behemoths?’ It's an important question to consider, especially when it seems like every week there is a new congressional hearing with Big Tech CEOs to gain transparency into their systems. AI is certainly the way of the future, but smaller companies shouldn’t be run out of the equation by Big Tech either. The AI Company Standing Up To Big Tech And Setting Itself Apart Brand Engagement Network (NASDAQ: BNAI) (BEN) seems to be making a splash in the AI industry. The pure-play AI company's target market encompasses client service businesses seeking heightened efficiencies and enhanced customer experiences. Having commenced operations in 2018 and initiated its generative AI in 2019, the company is committed to furthering the future of AI. The company has spent the past several years acquiring patents to enhance sound and image processing, sensor data and AI perception and understanding. The company released its AI/3D avatar prototype in 2020, showcasing BEN's ability to blend cutting-edge technology with immersive user experiences. BEN’s AI has distinguished itself from competitors through 16+ perception, understanding, and response AI modules that facilitate a truly human-like interaction in the ways it can listen, see, speak, and react. Another way it distinguishes itself is through its data. It isn’t like most LLMs, where there is a risk of the conversational AI “losing its mind,” infringing copyrighted information, or hallucinating. In other words– businesses determine the parameters of what BEN’s AI can and cannot say. BEN’s AI assistants are walled gardens for each business, meaning they learn and are trained on what the business specifies they learn and train on and the benefits are contained to that individual instance. It truly is the businesses’ AI. BEN’s full stack solutions can be ring fenced and operate without access to 3rd party systems or without an external internet connection for companies where maximum data security and compliance are a must. BEN has just announced the successful completion of its business combination with DHC Acquisition Corp., under which DHC shareholders approved the transaction at its extraordinary general meeting held on March 5, 2024. The combined company will now operate under the name of Brand Engagement Network Inc., and it commenced trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market on Friday, March 15, 2024. Its common stock is traded under the ticker symbol BNAI, while publicly traded warrants will be traded under the ticker symbol BNAIW. “We are pleased to complete our business combination with DHC and begin our next chapter. As a pure play public AI company, we expect BEN will continue to lead the design of business-safe AI solutions. We are committed to AI that delivers to our customers personalized consumer engagement, superior CX, productivity and performance through helpful, friendly AI assistants,” said BEN CEO Michael Zacharski. “We are incredibly grateful to our leadership team, employees and partners around the world for their support in our journey. We are looking forward to the future and believe BEN is well-positioned to capitalize on significant growth opportunities and generate substantial value for all stakeholders.” With Big Tech dominating the AI industry, companies like BEN are a breath of fresh air. Not to mention, its technology, in many ways, supersedes some of the limitations of existing AI. For businesses that want a tailored customer experience and are looking to cut costs with AI, BEN’s technology could be the solution. Featured photo by Growtika on Unsplash.

Atlas Lithium (NASDAQ: ATLX) Announces Appointment Of Seasoned Lithium Expert Brian Talbot As Chief Operating Officer

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Atlas Lithium (NASDAQ: ATLX) is a little-known company that has positioned itself to take advantage of Brazil's Lithium Valley, which holds an estimated 85% of the country's lithium reserves. With a focus on sustainable mining practices, Atlas Lithium aims to develop and produce high-quality lithium concentrate to meet the increasing demand for lithium-ion batteries in industries like electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy storage systems. To help achieve its ambitious goals, the company has announced the addition of Brian Talbot to its management as Chief Operating Officer and a member of the Board of Directors, effective April 1, 2024. Mr. Talbot is a renowned executive in the lithium sector with over 30 years of experience in mining operations. He has a strong DMS plant development and operation track record, having worked at major lithium companies. “When speaking with global lithium investors, Brian Talbot is a name that is clearly revered as a ticket for success. The fact that Atlas Lithium can attract such exceptional talent speaks volumes about our culture and the potential of our project. We wholeheartedly welcome Brian to our Board of Directors and to lead our development and exploration technical teams,” said Marc Fogassa, the company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Previously, Mr. Talbot served as the Chief Operating Officer at Sigma Lithium Corporation (NASDAQ: SGML), overseeing the development of the Grota do Cirilo project. He also held positions at Galaxy Resources (ASX: GXY), where he significantly increased production at Mt. Cattlin and Bikita Minerals in Zimbabwe, the longest-running hard-rock lithium mine in the world. With Mr. Talbot's expertise, Atlas Lithium aims to enhance its operational capabilities and drive early revenue strategy, with anticipated first revenues and production commencing in Q4 2024. Mr. Talbot shared, “After visiting and studying in detail Atlas Lithium’s properties, I firmly believe there is a strong alignment between my expertise in expediting hard-rock lithium projects to production and the solid foundation that the Company has already built. This opportunity allows me to further advance Atlas Lithium’s strategic direction as a member of its Board of Directors, while also fostering my professional growth as a leader in the lithium space.” Talbot will be joining a diverse team of experienced professionals, including geology leaders with nearly 30 years of lithium exploration experience, former Galaxy Resources (ASX: GXY) executives, and the former Chairman of Allkem. Leading the company's Board is Marc Fogassa, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The company's leadership team combines global mining expertise with a deep understanding of U.S. capital markets, which should aid the company on its path to success. As the globe races to reduce carbon emissions, EVs and renewable energy storage systems will need a steady supply of lithium to remain operational. The global lithium market size was valued at $38.2 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach $230.4 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 22.1% from 2023-2031. Although Atlas Lithium has yet to achieve widespread recognition, the company boasts a strong team of industry leaders with extensive backgrounds and expertise in their respective fields. Talbot is the latest addition to the company, and its commitment to ensuring quality leadership should help position Atlas Lithium to emerge as a major supplier of this crucial resource.
