Suunto Introduces Suunto Run
The Smartest:
Among its 34 different sport modes, the Suunto Run offers new run-specific modes for the marathon and track, each with unique features to elevate those activities. In marathon mode, runners have access to real-time estimated results to assist in fine-tuning efforts on the fly for optimal performance, while track mode optimizes the experience of speed work on the track, accurately recording every lap.
The Suunto Run includes a suite of smart features, including Ghost Runner mode, which enables runners to virtually race their friends on the same segment.
The Fastest:
Combining minimalist design, including a weight of only 36 grams, with maximum functionality, the Suunto Run is an ideal companion for runners training to reach their next big goal. The Suunto Run was developed in collaboration with runners worldwide to provide an intuitive interface to access a 360-degree training experience.
Other key features include weather updates, alarms, and activity monitoring, ensuring the watch remains useful beyond training sessions. The Suunto App seamlessly integrates with the watch's upgraded operating system, providing deeper insights into training, activity levels, and recovery. Runners can also store and manage MP3 audio files, allowing them to listen to their favorite music on the go without needing to carry a phone or a separate music device while exercising.
The Brightest:
Delivering up to 12 days of battery life with daily use, Suunto Run allows runners to focus on training instead of battery management. Its highly accurate GNSS navigation feature allows users to review their running routes on the watch and within the Suunto app post-training. Additionally, the breadcrumb navigation feature enables users to follow routes even when offline.
The Suunto Run comes in four color options with a comfortable textile strap that ensures a secure fit. The watch is also compatible with all 22mm-wide accessory straps from Suunto, giving users even more customization options. Suunto Run will retail for $249 USD ($349 CAD) and is available through suunto.com, amazon, and select retailers.

About Suunto
In 1936, our founder, Finnish inventor Tuomas Vohlonen, pioneered a new standard for precision in navigation with his field compass, which was stronger, steadier, and more accurate than any other handheld navigational tool in existence. It was the first of many products built to withstand the harsh conditions of Finland.
In the near century since then, Tuomas's spirit of innovation has continued to chart Suunto's course. From some of history's first dive computers and high-altitude wrist altimeters to the GPS watches of modern day, Suunto continues to be a trusted companion for outdoor adventurers across the globe. It remains our primary mission to support explorers, athletes, and weekend warriors alike, giving them the tools to dive deeper, climb higher, and push the limits of human potential.

Asian Automakers Invest in Digital, Electrified Future
SYDNEY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Automotive and mobility companies in Asia Pacific are developing advanced digital vehicle platforms and features to stay competitive amid rapid electrification and changing consumer expectations, according to a new research report published today by Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a global AI-centered technology research and advisory firm. Asia Pacific is a key region in the development of new vehicle platforms and features. As regulatory and market pressures grow and change, manufacturers continue to advance both their products and their methodologies. The 2025 ISG Provider Lens ® Automotive and Mobility Services and Solutions report for Asia Pacific finds that the market for electric and hybrid vehicles in the region continues to grow, driven in part by government support, urbanization and environmental concerns. Interest in and development of autonomous vehicles (AVs) is also accelerating, led by rapid developments in China and Southeast Asia. These trends, along with rising demand for connected cars with new digital capabilities, are driving innovation throughout the region's industry. 'Asia Pacific is a key region in the development of new vehicle platforms and features,' said Michael Gale, partner and regional leader, ISG Asia Pacific. 'As regulatory and market pressures grow and change, manufacturers continue to advance both their products and their methodologies.' Automotive manufacturers and service providers are increasing their investments in Asia Pacific to build up production and technology infrastructure for the new age of electric and software-defined vehicles, the report says. This includes investments in battery technologies, localized supply chains and public-private partnerships. Companies are transforming automotive engineering and production with digital advancements to increase their agility, accelerate time to market and respond more quickly to changing consumer demands, ISG says. By using digital twins to simulate products under development, manufacturers are eliminating the cost of some physical prototypes, while physical prototyping itself is becoming faster and less expensive with 3D printing. Some companies are moving toward the use of blockchain technology for trust and transparency throughout the development process, further reducing timelines. Automakers in Asia Pacific are increasingly focused on enhancing customer experience through digital features such as advanced driver assistance and AI-powered service recommendations, the report says. Vehicles are becoming defined by software more than by hardware, especially with over-the-air updates that allow manufacturers to significantly improve features over time. The emergence of software-defined vehicles is reshaping product design and development and helping to clear a path to new mobility models such as car-sharing and subscriptions. As vehicle platforms and development approaches evolve, service providers are gaining competencies to assist automakers from product inception through testing, refinement and manufacturing, ISG says. 'Electrification, digitalization and new ownership models are changing nearly every aspect of the automotive business,' said Shirish Madhukar Kulkarni, lead author of the report. 'Service providers need to expand and strengthen their capabilities to help manufacturers in Asia Pacific succeed in this new environment.' The report also examines other automotive and mobility trends in Asia Pacific, including the growing imperative for more sustainable operations and the evolution of automotive retail channels.

Dailymotion Advertising Introduces EchoAI: The Conversational Ad Format Powered by AI
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dailymotion Advertising, the video marketing suite developed by Dailymotion, announces the launch of EchoAI, an exclusive video ad format that combines a conversational AI engine trained on the advertiser's proprietary content with a creative experience designed by Dailymotion's Creative Studio. With EchoAI, brands can now engage audiences in real-time conversations directly from their video ads, across all screens (desktop, mobile, tablet, and connected TV). EchoAI allows users to ask questions about promoted products or services, discover personalized offers, or locate a store - all without leaving the video experience. This innovative format fits squarely into a mid-funnel strategy, offering brands a new way to capture attention and facilitate a smooth journey from interest to consideration. Conversational technology that drives engagement EchoAI relies on a conversational agent trained exclusively on the advertiser's proprietary content (website, documentation, FAQs), ensuring a reliable, coherent, and brand-safe experience. The interactions generated are analyzed to provide qualitative insights into consumer expectations. EchoAI is now available in open beta across all markets where Dailymotion Advertising operates. It supports more than 20 languages and is immediately accessible to advertisers looking to explore new mid-funnel engagement strategies. The goal of this beta phase is to identify pioneering brands and demonstrate EchoAI's value and potential through real-world activations. ' For too long, brands have been talking at consumers. The real promise of generative AI isn't just faster content creation - it's the ability to build genuine dialogue. With EchoAI, we're launching the first video ad experience designed for this shift: helping brands move from broadcasting to conversation. A breakthrough innovation that enables personalized relationships at scale - and gives rise to a new generation of 'promptable' brands,' says Hamza Kourimate, Chief Marketing Officer at Dailymotion B2B. ' EchoAI was born from a strong belief: AI doesn't replace creativity - it enhances it. The challenge was to design a format where technology steps back to make room for a fluid, meaningful user experience. By integrating real-time dialogue into video storytelling, we've reimagined the narrative around exchange - and opened up a new path for creativity in the age of AI,' adds Luis Ryder, Head of Creative Studio at Dailymotion Advertising. An AI strategy focused on impact and performance With EchoAI, Dailymotion Advertising takes a new step in embedding artificial intelligence into its ad solutions. Already recognized for its advanced use of AI in contextual targeting and content recommendation, the company now enriches user experiences through interactive formats that adapt in real time to consumer intent. By leveraging multimodal analysis and language processing technologies, Dailymotion Advertising delivers smarter, more relevant campaigns - fully aligned with the needs of a cookieless world. EchoAI is part of a broader strategy that puts AI at the core of Dailymotion Advertising's transformation. It marks the first step toward new capabilities designed to create greater value for both brands and users. This momentum will accelerate in the coming months with the gradual introduction of complementary innovations. here.
