KANSAS CITY METROPOLITAN AREA, Sept. 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — This September, Pickleman’s Gourmet Café is proud to partner with the Brave Like McKenna Foundation to stand with kids and families battling pediatric cancer.

McKenna Royer was only 11 when she lost her fight with Diffuse Midline Glioma (DMG), a rare and aggressive pediatric brain cancer, on February 26, 2024. Through every treatment and every setback, McKenna showed a spirit that never quit. She inspired everyone around her with her joy, grit, and courage.

Her mom, Janell Royer, a Pickleman’s franchisee, knows the fight up close. She saw the harsh realities of pediatric cancer and the lack of resources for families. After McKenna’s passing, Janell made a promise: no family should face this diagnosis without hope, help, and community. That promise became the Brave Like McKenna Foundation.

The foundation funds groundbreaking research and provides real, practical support for families. From easing medical costs to creating bright moments of joy in the middle of the fight.

How You Can Join In
All month long at Pickleman’s, guests can:

– Donate $1 and get a coloring page to spark creativity.
– Donate $5 and receive a pin. Wear it proudly to show you’re part of the fight!

Every dollar goes directly to the foundation. Together, we can turn sandwiches into support and meals into momentum for kids who deserve a future full of possibilities.

“This isn’t just a cause for us, it’s family,” says Doug Stritzel, Founder and CEO of Pickleman’s. “Through Janell, we’ve seen how one child’s bravery can move mountains. Now it’s our turn to move with her.”

Stop by your local Pickleman’s this September and leave knowing you helped bring light to a child’s darkest days. Together, we can help brave kids fight an even braver battle.

DALIAN, China, Sept. 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — With an open and inclusive welcome, Dalian, China’s famed “Football City”, hosted the ultimate showdown in university football. On September 17, the 2025 FISU Football World Cup grandly kicked off at Suoyuwan Stadium, bringing together 24 elite university sides from 17 countries for a festival of fierce rivalry and new friendships on the pitch.

 

The tournament will be staged under the philosophy of “green, innovative, humanistic and spectacular”. The design of the mascot “Lianbao  Spotted Seal”, which is modeled on the rare spotted seals of Dalian’s National Nature Reserve, not only embodies the competitive spirit of young athletes, but also signals Dalian’s commitment to marine-ecosystem conservation and green development.

The tournament innovatively deploys cutting-edge technology to streamline operations and enhance the overall experience. The Dalian Football Youth Training Base now runs a UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) inspection system equipped with HD and thermal-imaging cameras to monitor turf health in real time and fine-tune maintenance, greatly boosting efficiency. Across both digital and on-site touchpoints, AI chatbots deliver real-time, accurate support to participants, proof that technology is truly driving the tournament.

Human-centred hospitality underpinned every stage of the tournament. Thirteen Dalian universities offered dedicated, one-on-one support to overseas squads, and more than 280 student volunteers staffed reception, media and operations desks throughout the event.

On the field, players from every continent threw everything into tackle and counterattack; Off the field, diverse cultural-exchange activities ran in parallel. Three nightly shows of “Hello Dalian•Youth Aloft” mixed Chinese opera with hip-hop and left stadium corridors ringing with applause. Across the bay in Donggang, players filmed ferries gliding between skyscrapers as if sailing down a street. At Dalian Forest Zoo, the adorable giant pandas stole the show as the biggest stars. On Dongguan Street, the players stepped into the history museum and listened intently to the story of Dalian. As they toured the city, they experienced its natural scenery, cultural heritage and modern energy.

FISU President Leonz Eder hailed the event as “a milestone” and called China “our closest and most valued partner.” Drawn together by football, students from across the world left Dalian with new friends and lifelong memories, turning the tournament into a bridge for youth culture and people-to-people ties.

15-year plan aims to eliminate tens of thousands of vacant properties, restore neighborhood housing markets—making it the largest community investment initiative in the city’s history

BALTIMORE, Sept. 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Amid a growing national housing shortage, Baltimore is leading the nation’s most ambitious housing redevelopment program – supported by $1.2 billion in public investment commitments – and is aiming to leverage an additional $5 billion in private-sector financing, according to the Greater Baltimore Committee (GBC). This comprehensive, 15-year strategy will initially revitalize more than 37,000 vacant or at-risk properties, tipping market conditions for private development across an additional 33,000 houses and lots.

“This initiative demonstrates the strength and alignment of our region in addressing vacancy at scale,” said Mark Anthony Thomas, president of the GBC. “As a core economic development priority, the public dollars committed to this effort are designed to catalyze significant private-sector investment, grow our population, and strengthen neighborhoods. By bringing together civic leadership, private capital, and community partners, Baltimore is setting a new national benchmark for city revitalization.”

Unlike programs focused on single buildings, Baltimore’s strategy addresses vacancy at the block level—recognizing that housing stability, neighborhood vitality, and quality public spaces go hand in hand. In addition to revitalizing homes, the intention is to align investments in infrastructure, commercial corridors, parks, and community spaces, taking a holistic approach to neighborhood renewal. The work is being led by the GBC, the Mayor’s Office, and BUILD Baltimore, and is being coordinated through Reinvest Baltimore, which Gov. Wes Moore established via executive order in October 2024. 

Baltimore is proving what’s possible when a city invests boldly in its future,” said Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott. “With over a billion dollars in public funding, strong private-sector partnerships, and deep community engagement, we’re not just reducing the number of vacant homes—we’re transforming entire neighborhoods and creating lasting economic opportunity for our residents.”

To date, the effort has secured:

  • $300 million from the City of Baltimore, including a first-of-its-kind affordable housing tax increment financing (TIF) program. This tool uses future increases in property tax revenue from revitalized areas to fund improvements today, accelerating redevelopment.
  • $900 million from the State of Maryland, pledged over the coming years to support housing and neighborhood reinvestment.

Together, these commitments mark essential steps toward reaching $3 billion in public funding over the next 15 years.

“We’re committed to transforming Baltimore’s neighborhoods by addressing vacancy with urgency and precision,” said Secretary Jake Day, Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development. “We’re not just filling empty houses—we’re building stronger, safer, and more connected communities through collaboration at both the local and statewide level.”

Public Financial Management Systems (PFM), a national consulting firm that advises governments on fiscal strategy, projects more than $7.3 billion in economic value from the program over the next 30 years, driven by increased tax revenue, job creation, and rising property values. The plan for private sector investment, developed by Forsyth Street Advisors, suggests multiple funding structures, including innovative tools like shared-appreciation mortgages and scattered-site rental loans for small developers. PNC, Bank of America, JPMorganChase, and T. Rowe Price are already engaged in the effort, and GBC is leading the development of a strategy to secure additional private-sector commitments through a new family of funds. 

This week, GBC issued a Request for Information (RFI) to find a partner to design a private capital strategy that directs funds to support this mission. GBC and its partners aim to mobilize capital through a structured set of investment vehicles that align with both market realities and public priorities.

Baltimore’s approach builds on the proven success of ReBUILD Metro in East Baltimore, which focused on whole-block revitalization. Over the last two decades, ReBUILD Metro has invested over $125 million in East Baltimore, remediating over 500 vacant properties and lots into new homes and assets – reducing vacancy by over 90% in the first two focus areas and substantially increasing both neighborhood population and average home values, without displacing existing residents. Originally funded through philanthropic support, the program is now scaling with state funds, providing a tested model for this citywide effort.

About the Greater Baltimore Committee
The Greater Baltimore Committee (GBC) is the leading economic and civic organization for the Baltimore Region, providing insightful economic and civic leadership to drive collective impact. GBC is powered by more than 300 private sector partners, including large, mid-size, and small companies; nonprofits; foundations; and educational and healthcare institutions, the GBC is dedicated to fostering the prosperity of the Greater Baltimore region. Founded in 1955, the GBC merged in 2022 with the Economic Alliance of Greater Baltimore—an organization that marketed the region for business investments—and hired its first new leader in more than two decades. In 2024, GBC launched the “Bold Moves” initiative, a new economic brand designed to showcase the region’s ambition, innovation, and momentum in attracting business and talent to Greater Baltimore.

AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — 1st Commercial Credit, a leading provider of receivables-based financing solutions, has announced the successful funding of a Brazilian produce exporter supplying fresh fruit and vegetables to U.S. buyers. The transaction was facilitated through 1st Commercial Credit’s Vendor Pay Express platform, an innovative early-payment solution designed to accelerate supplier payments while preserving standard invoice terms for buyers.

Solving Cross-Border Cash Flow Challenges

Exporting perishable products requires significant working capital to cover harvesting, packaging, and logistics before payment is received from U.S. buyers. Traditional banks and factoring companies are restricted from financing PACA-related receivables, making timely funding difficult for produce exporters. By using Vendor Pay Express, the Brazilian exporter secures accelerated payments on approved invoices, keeping its supply chain funded and shipments delivered on time.

“Fresh produce exporters face intense pressure to maintain cash flow while meeting the demands of U.S. distributors and retailers,” said Raul Esqueda, President of 1st Commercial Credit. “Vendor Pay Express bridges this gap by paying exporters promptly, while giving buyers the comfort of keeping their negotiated credit terms.”

How Vendor Pay Express Works

The Vendor Pay Express platform allows suppliers to submit invoices electronically. Once approved by the U.S. buyer, payment is accelerated to the exporter, and a replacement invoice is generated to the buyer. This ensures:

  • Early payment for the exporter, eliminating working capital strain.
  • No change in terms for the U.S. buyer, who continues to pay on their usual schedule.
  • Strengthened supply chain reliability, as growers and packers in Brazil are paid faster.

Expanding Market Reach

The facility stabilizes cash flow for the Brazilian exporter while enabling larger purchase orders and broader U.S. distribution. With Vendor Pay Express able to approve PACA receivables, Brazilian and other foreign companies selling to U.S. buyers can qualify, giving importers consistent supply, stronger vendor relationships, and streamlined payment processing.

“Vendor Pay Express is more than funding—it’s a compliant platform that builds trust between international suppliers and U.S. buyers,” said Raul Esqueda, President of 1st Commercial Credit.

About 1st Commercial Credit

1st Commercial Credit is a leading invoice factoring company providing receivable-based financing, purchase order financing, and supply chain solutions to businesses across the United States and internationally

Green data centers have redefined digital infrastructure by integrating renewable energy, liquid and immersion cooling, and intelligent energy management systems to support sustainability at scale. These innovations deliver higher power usage efficiency, reduced carbon emissions, and compliance with tightening global regulations, driving adoption across hyperscale facilities, colocation providers, and enterprise data centers.

By embedding eco-designed technologies into core operations, green data centers ensure long-term resilience, regulatory alignment, and cost optimization for energy-intensive workloads. This infrastructure enables organizations to power AI-driven applications, cloud services, and high-density computing environments more efficiently, while reducing dependence on fossil fuel-based systems and mitigating environmental impact.

Green air cooling infrastructure segment is expected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period

Green air cooling is expected to become the dominant thermal management solution in data centers, driven by the need for energy efficiency and sustainability. Key components include computer room air handlers (CRAH) and computer room air conditioning (CRAC) units, which utilize chilled water and refrigerant-based systems, respectively, to maintain optimal temperature and humidity levels. These units are enhanced with variable-speed fans, advanced controls, and high-efficiency motors to minimize energy consumption. Eco-friendly air-cooled chillers complement these systems by employing low global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants and incorporating free-cooling modes that use ambient outdoor air, further reducing energy demand. Additional strategies such as hot/cold aisle containment, variable airflow management, and intelligent monitoring systems dynamically adjust cooling based on real-time demand, optimizing efficiency.

Emerging vendors and solution providers have opportunities to capitalize on this trend. Carrier’s investment in ZutaCore, announced in February 2025, exemplifies the industry’s shift toward advanced thermal solutions. The partnership aims to deliver scalable, energy-efficient cooling systems that address the increasing thermal demands of modern data centers. To tap into these opportunities, vendors should develop innovative cooling technologies that enhance energy efficiency and support sustainability objectives. Collaborations with established players, participation in industry partnerships, and continuous innovation will be crucial for gaining a competitive edge in the evolving data center cooling market.

Software segment is poised for the fastest growth rate during the forecast period

The software segment is expected to exhibit the highest CAGR in the Green Data Center Market, driven by increasing demand for intelligent automation, energy optimization, and regulatory compliance. Data center infrastructure management (DCIM) software provides comprehensive real-time visibility into power usage, cooling efficiency, server utilization, and environmental conditions, enabling operators to identify inefficiencies, optimize resource allocation, and maintain high availability. Building management systems (BMS) integrate electrical, mechanical, and HVAC systems, automating energy-efficient operations across the facility while regulating lighting, temperature, and airflow to reduce waste and improve cooling efficiency.

Compliance software ensures adherence to environmental standards, industry regulations, and sustainability certifications such as LEED or ISO 50001, automating reporting and facilitating audits to provide transparency and accountability. Specialized software solutions, including AI-driven predictive workload management and energy analytics platforms, dynamically adjust cooling, power distribution, and IT workloads based on real-time demand, minimizing environmental impact and reducing operational costs. Emerging vendors and solution providers can capitalize on this growth through strategic partnerships and technology integration. For instance, in August 2025, Vertiv acquired Waylay NV, a Belgium-based AI-powered software provider, to enhance monitoring, optimization, and operational efficiency across its data center systems. By developing innovative software solutions, collaborating with established players, and leveraging AI and analytics capabilities, vendors can deliver sustainable, efficient, and regulatory-compliant green data center operations while tapping into high-growth market opportunities.

Additionally, Schneider Electric announced collaborative AI data center reference designs with NVIDIA in December 2024 that enable liquid cooling at densities up to 132 kilowatts per rack, illustrating supplier responses to higher rack power and efficiency requirements.

Federal and commercial developments in 2024 and 2025 are reshaping procurement timelines and technical requirements. The White House issued an executive order in July 2025 to accelerate federal permitting of large data center projects and supporting infrastructure. By streamlining approvals for facilities above 100 megawatts or with capital expenditures of at least USD 500 million, the order directly supports faster deployment of next-generation green data centers, enabling quicker integration of renewable power, liquid cooling systems, and energy-efficient designs. Schneider Electric introduced and validated new electrical and liquid cooling reference designs through 2024 and into 2025, creating repeatable deployment pathways for integrators and owners. Vendors and solution providers should prioritize prevalidated liquid cooling stacks, modular electrical skids, facility-level heat recovery, and enhanced DCIM to meet immediate procurement demands under faster permitting regimes and greater availability of renewable power.
