Shareholder Urges Microsoft to Boot Jeffrey Epstein Pal from Board of Directors

NLPC

In a letter to the lead independent director for Microsoft Corporation, National Legal and Policy Center has asked for the removal of billionaire Reid Hoffman from the company’s board of directors, due to his hyper-partisan political activities and his connections to the late convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, whose private island Hoffman visited in 2014. NLPC owns stock in Microsoft and is also sponsoring a shareholder proposal at this year’s annual meeting, which will be held on December 7, 2023. LinkedIn, which was co-founded by Hoffman, was acquired by Microsoft in December 2016. He joined Microsoft’s board in March 2017. As NLPC’s Paul Chesser wrote in his letter to the company’s top independent director, Sandra Peterson, Hoffman has shown poor discernment in his associations, poor judgment in his political and social actions, and utter disregard for Microsoft’s reputation and shareholder value. “Reid Hoffman’s wealth and arrogance have clearly gone to his head and he appears to think he doesn’t have to be accountable to anyone,” said Chesser, who is director of NLPC’s Corporate Integrity Project (CIP). “Whether its visiting ‘Pedophile Isle’ with Jeffrey Epstein, or calling the likely 2024 Republican presidential nominee ‘The Disease President,’ or simply advising aspiring entrepreneurs to ‘ignore your customers,’ Hoffman obviously would rather satiate his sensual impulses than properly oversee the fiduciary responsibilities of a major technology company,” said Luke Perlot, associate director and chief researcher for the CIP. In the heavily footnoted letter to Microsoft, NLPC pointed out three major reasons that make Hoffman unsuitable for the board: his close association with Epstein; his unrestrained, hyper-partisan political urges; and his hypocritical views regarding “civic participation” and his own company’s censorship practices. Excerpts from the letter: According to Axios, Mr. Hoffman and Mr. Epstein both aggressively fundraised for the [MIT Media Lab], with Mr. Hoffman also inviting Mr. Epstein to join him at an August 2015 dinner in Silicon Valley that included tech entrepreneurs Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg and Peter Thiel. In an email to Mr. Thiel, according to the Wall Street Journal, “Hoffman wrote that Epstein was a ‘mostly fun, very interesting guy, you may find him perverse, but very smart on biology, computation, macro econ.’”… Mr. Hoffman’s extremely poor judgment leaves many unanswered questions. Recognizing Mr. Epstein as “perverse,” how did Mr. Hoffman justify ongoing collaboration with the convicted pedophile, who maintained his own luxury island to traffic underage girls to fulfill the sexual desires of himself and his associates? How could a highly educated, savvy and instinctive tech billionaire agree to visit such a place, with such a person, with such a detestable reputation, unless it was intentional, showing utter disregard for his own image and that of the businesses and organizations with which he is identified? … MotiveAI, another firm credited with “with backing from billionaire LinkedIn chairman Reid Hoffman,” ran ads through associated limited liability companies that featured offensive content and disinformation…. Facebook pages with MotiveAI associations made sexist comments about former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard and Republican megadonor Rebekah Mercer. One such page called Rep. Gabbard a “C.W.I.L.F.,” which stands for a “Congresswoman I’d like to f---”… Mr. Hoffman…could easily advocate for [LinkedIn] to remain open to all for reasoned political debate, but there is no evidence that he does. In fact, his own history indicates that he encourages such snubs. As a self-styled expert on venture capital-funded startups…Mr. Hoffman recommends one counterintuitive business practice for an alleged path to success: “Ignore your customers.” Is this an image that Microsoft wishes to project? NLPC called for Peterson to ask for Hoffman’s resignation, and if he refuses to do so, then to seek his removal. Hoffman is listed as a nominee for re-election to the board on the company’s proxy statement. “Reid Hoffman has been very successful in business but he has shown very poor judgment,” said Peter Flaherty, chairman of NLPC. “Wealth should not be an exemption from decent behavior. Microsoft will be a better company when Hoffman leaves the board.” Founded in 1991, NLPC promotes ethics in public life and government accountability through research, investigation, education, and legal action. ### For more information or to schedule an interview with Paul Chesser, contact Dan Rene at 202-329-8357 or drene@nlpc.org.

Meet CenterPoint Securities, Broker To Your Favorite Traders

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga Day traders like Humbled Trader, Madaz Money and Kristjan Kullamägi have an almost cult-like status among their followers even if their approaches differ. One thing they do have in common is their reliance on CenterPoint Securities to execute their trades. The brokerage, which just entered the Canadian market, is loved by many active traders, particularly those interested in complex trading strategies. Humbled Trader, for example, just ranked it best brokerage for shorting for those with large accounts (over $30,000). So what’s so great about this broker getting attention from your favorite traders? A lot, according to its fan base. A Fast And Reliable Trading Platform Take its advanced trading platform for starters. It offers active traders and investors a sophisticated trading screen that includes advanced charting, level 2 data and 30+ unique order routing options. It's a favorite with traders because of its specialized routes, smart routing technology and direct market access. It's fast, reliable and fully customizable, which is what active traders need. Large Inventory Of Hard-To-Borrow Stocks CenterPoint is designed for the serious trader. It is built from the ground up for active traders and investors, which is why its list of hard-to-borrow stocks is a big draw. These are stocks that traders want to short but find that borrowing the shares needed is difficult. It often means having a broker locate the shares which takes time and added fees. CenterPoint relies on its in-house stock loan desk along with multiple outside resources, giving traders multiple options. CenterPoint makes it easy, too. All you have to do is enter the ticker and number of shares to borrow, and the short locate tool does the work. If there are shares available, you will know how much it costs to borrow them before executing the trade. You don’t pay any fees unless you accept the locate. The hard-to-borrow list is updated daily as is its list of over 5,000 easy-to-borrow stocks. With both lists, traders have a lot of options to potentially make money. The locate tool is backed by an in-house securities lending team that’s skilled at finding hard-to-borrow stocks. CenterPoint also has over a decade of experience, which attracts active traders who want to deal with professionals. At CenterPoint, over 100 million shares are located monthly, and more than 20,000 locate orders are filled. The average order fill size is over 4,000. Experience Matters Being able to lend customers hard-to-borrow stocks is a big reason traders come, but that’s not the only reason they stay with the brokerage, which is backed by ClearStreet – the fintech with over $400 million in capital. CenterPoint has top-notch customer support that often gets accolades in reviews. The company requires only $30,000 to open an account and gives customers a 14-day free trial. You can test drive it without any upfront costs. CenterPoint may not offer commission-free trades, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t cheap. Commissions are as low as $0.001 per share. Locate fees vary by time, stock and how many shares are available. Active traders are also rewarded for trading – as trading volume increases, commission fees decrease. Every CenterPoint client is also eligible for the company’s locate discount program, with discounts of up to 30%. CenterPoint may not be for the casual trader, but active ones seem to be flocking to it thanks to its reputation for finding hard-to-borrow stocks, its advanced trading platform and competitive pricing. For those active investors looking to short a large variety of stocks, it can be just the tool they need. This post contains sponsored content.

Trust Stamp Has Presented A Viable Technology for The Alternative To Detention Market

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga The incarceration industry capitalizes on the assumption that incarcerating people is necessary. This assumption has led to the establishment of detention facilities that sometimes prioritize financial gain over the welfare of detainees. While there may be instances where detention is necessary for national security or public safety reasons, it is important to recognize that more humane alternatives to detention exist. Trust Stamp Inc. (NASDAQ: IDAI) is working to create viable alternatives to detention facilities. The company specializes in trust and identity services used globally and has launched its new Tap-In Band TM as an alternative to detention. The Tap-In Band is a wrist-worn, tamper-resistant band that is hypoallergenic and equipped with NFC technology. This technology enables discrete check-ins and communication with people who are enrolled in community-based supervision programs. By using the GPS and NFC technology in a user's mobile phone, the Tap-In Band allows the user to verify their location and well-being. They can tap the band to their phone to gain direct access to a personalized web portal with messaging and other features. The use of the Tap-In Band also enhances facial biometric authentication, which uses the phone's camera. The band is tamper-proof, and Trust Stamp holds the patent covering multi-factor authentication using a band and biometric authentication. Unlike current ankle and wrist-worn technologies, the Tap-In Band does not have a battery. This removes concerns about battery failure and the inconvenience of charging. Additionally, the band doesn't contain GPS tracking technology, which can ease user apprehension about intrusive monitoring. If someone tries to remove the band, the band will permanently notify tampering, even if the band is competently repaired. The Tap-In Band also uses Trust Stamp's patented IT2 identity tokenization process, which allows users to biometrically authenticate without storing any biometric images or templates. Gareth N. Genner, Trust Stamp’s Chief Executive Officer shared, “The Tap-In Band is the result of three years of market discovery and development and is a game-changer. The band is battery-free and has a fitness band-styled design that provides secure authentication without imposing embarrassment or discomfort. We are not publicly releasing final images of the customizable aesthetic design but I will say that the Band is available in a variety of colors with optional design features that ensure that the underlying use-case is not obvious to an onlooker. The use of our IT 2 identity tokenization, combined with data flows that do not require any data to be received or processed by Trust Stamp or any other vendor, ensures that the legitimate privacy and safety concerns that are raised by legacy technologies are removed with the Tap-In Band. While the Tap-In Band can be used for continual monitoring programs, we believe that the highest and best use is to support programs that require scheduled or randomly triggered check-ins.” Alternative programs to detention, like Trust Stamp’s Tap-In Band, offer a more compassionate and cost-effective approach. Not only are these programs more humane, but they also provide significant savings to society. Instead of investing in expensive detention facilities, these programs offer affordable alternatives that allow individuals to remain in the community while their cases are being processed. These programs typically have a high success rate, ensuring compliance with proceedings while providing support and supervision. This post contains sponsored content.

Nearly A Third Of Japan’s 36 Million Seniors Are At Risk Of Aging Frailty – Could Lomecel-BTM, Longeveron’s (NASDAQ: LGVN) Cell Therapy Help?

Benzinga

By Rachael Green, Benzinga Nations all over the world are getting older, but Japan is leading the charge, with nearly a third of its total population over 65 — making Japan the oldest society in the world. While longer lifespans are great news, the growing number of seniors is bringing increased attention to the issue of aging frailty and its impact on the quality of life in those lengthening golden years. As people age, it can be common for systems in the body to start declining, including a decline in muscle mass and a slowing down of the immune system. The cumulative effect of this and other age-related decline is sometimes referred to as aging frailty, and for people with aging frailty, there appears to be increased vulnerability to death or severe disability as a result of minor events like a fall or a mild infection, as well as increased risk of not surviving common surgeries that become increasingly needed as people age. Over the last few years, aging frailty has risen rapidly in Japan, from 11.5% of adults 65 and older in 2017 to over 17% today. Meanwhile, over 31% of Japanese seniors are pre-frail, meaning they meet one or more criteria for frailty and are at high risk of becoming frail in the next few years. To address this emerging crisis, Longeveron (NASDAQ: LGVN) is currently conducting clinical trials to evaluate Lomecel-B™, its off-the-shelf cell therapy candidate, as a potential treatment for aging frailty. Might Lomecel-B™ Help Target Underlying Causes Of Aging Frailty? Lomecel-B™ is made from medical signaling cells (MSCs) derived from the bone marrow of healthy adult donors. It is believed that MSCs travel to sites of damage or inflammation in the body and may promote cellular regeneration and repair. In a previous Phase 2b trial on aging frailty, a single intravenous (IV) infusion of Lomecel-B™ was shown to have improved the walking distance during a six-minute walk test after nine months. Another clinical trial is ongoing in Japan, with the first patient having been dosed in April, 2023. The trial will enroll approximately 45 patients who will be randomly split into three groups. One group will serve as the placebo-control group, while the other two will each receive either a low or high dose of Lomecel-B™ in a single infusion. If approved, Lomecel-B™ could become the first FDA-approved treatment in the United States for Aging-related Frailty on the market, filling an unmet need that appears likely to become more prevalent in the coming years.

Amid Economic Uncertainty, Businesses Are Looking For Services That Help Drive Growth – Givex Can Help

Benzinga

By Austin DeNoce, Benzinga In a landscape riddled with economic uncertainties that don’t seem to be eased by the Federal Reserve’s aggressive monetary policy, inflation is sending shockwaves across industries, demanding adaptive business models. Various industries are grappling with the rippling effects of these economic changes, but some – due to the nature of their businesses – are better equipped to adapt than others. Amid this climate, Givex Corp.’s (OTCQX: GIVXF) (TSX: GIVX) SaaS model seems to exhibit meaningful signs of resilience, illustrating the company's ability to withstand the challenges of inflation and broader economic hardship. Givex's strength lies in its revenue stream. While inflation influences the purchasing power of money, it doesn’t necessarily alter the frequency with which businesses utilize services like the one Givex provides or the value these companies provide. But to understand this fully, we need to grasp the core of what Givex offers. The Givex Platform At A Glance Since its inception in 1999, Givex has established itself as a premier SaaS platform, concentrating on capturing intricate details of consumer-merchant transactions, be it in-store or online. This capability enables merchants to conduct business seamlessly and efficiently and provides them with invaluable insights into customer behavior. By understanding these patterns, businesses can refine their strategies, enhance offerings and ultimately, drive higher profits. Central to Givex's offerings are its omnichannel point-of-sale (POS) solution, gift card solutions, loyalty programs and more. All these services capitalize on the power of real-time data analysis. The platform's emphasis on capturing detailed customer interactions – pivotal in this data-driven era – provides businesses with a competitive edge. Additionally, Givex's robust infrastructure, backed by PCI Level 1 certification, ensures data reliability and security. The ability to seamlessly integrate with other systems further enhances its appeal to businesses seeking adaptability without sacrificing stability. Why Merchants Seem To Be Flocking To Givex Givex's success in attracting a wide array of merchants is made clear by its range of clientele and the holistic value it brings to businesses. Renowned brands like Marriott International (NASDAQ: MAR), Best Western, 7-Eleven, and Wendy's Company (NASDAQ: WEN) are just a few names in a growing list of enterprises that have found value in partnering with Givex. With its comprehensive tech solutions spanning gift cards and GivexPOS to loyalty programs and payment services, Givex is a catalyst for growth across countless sectors. Givex’s ability to capture detailed transactional insights could prove invaluable in a business landscape where understanding customer behavior is critical to success. Moreover, customers aiming to stay afloat during inflationary periods may view Givex as a much-needed tool for insight-driven improvement. In the face of economic fluctuations, businesses desire partners that can drive transformative change to combat challenges like inflation. And Givex, with its comprehensive suite and a track record of reliability, emerges as that crucial partner. Givex's Revenue Streams To offer clarity on exactly how Givex generates revenue, below is the company’s multifaceted business model: Recurring Revenue Streams: Monthly and regular recurring service fees are foundational to Givex's revenue structure. Transactional components, including card production and individual transaction fees, also contribute significantly. Digital And Online Services: Revenue is generated from online ordering platforms and affiliated applications. Managed services and associated development fees further improve this segment. Hardware And Technical Solutions: Hardware sales encompass a variety of equipment, ranging from POS systems to kiosks, Kitchen Display Systems (KDS) and unattended retail units. Installation and support fees are levied for the seamless integration and upkeep of these solutions. Payments And Financial Services: Givex offers various payment and financial solutions, encompassing Merchant of Record services, GivexPay and GiftPass, each contributing to its revenue. This comprehensive approach ensures that Givex maintains a steady and diversified income stream, bolstering its financial resilience through economic rain or shine. Financial Durability Givex’s SaaS model, combined with its various revenue streams, helps to ensure a reliable cash flow. And the numbers would seem to support that – for Q2 2023, Givex showcased revenue growth of 15%, reaching $19.4 million and proving that even in inflationary climates, certain business strategies can thrive. The 20% growth in the Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) for the trailing twelve months (TTM) further solidifies Givex's position. The ARR's surge, increasing by $11.8 million to hit $71.1 million by June 2023, subtly underscores the company's ability to offer consistent value, even when the broader economy struggles. The company also reports that no single client brings in more than 2% of revenue – another indicator of resilience because it means that if one client does leave, it doesn’t have a very large impact. Furthermore, the company’s low client churn rate of less than 1% also highlights client trust and satisfaction; a trust that Givex can deliver effective solutions irrespective of economic headwinds. An Inflation-Resilient Anchor In Economic Uncertainty? In times of economic unpredictability, businesses seek stability and growth potential. Givex offers both. As inflation continues to influence various industries, Givex's SaaS model and its robust platform seem to demonstrate resilience and the promise of steady growth.
