[1] Anyone who has worked in the
financial services sector will at least be aware of Bloomberg Terminal, a research, data and analytics platform used to garner real-time insights on the financial markets.
Bloomberg Terminal has emerged as something of an industry standard, used by more than 300,000 people at just about every major
financial and investment-related corporation globally — but it costs north of $20,000 per user each year to license, a fee that is exceedingly high for many organizations.
This is something that OpenBB has set out to tackle, by democratizing an industry that has been "dominated by monopolistic and proprietary incumbents" for the past four decades — and it's doing so with an entirely open source approach.

[2] California headquartered Reputation, a company known for offering a massive suite of products for
reputation experience management (RXM), has launched a new AI-driven product to help enterprises better track their competitors and understand what they need to do to improve their business and
market positioning.
Companies of all sizes have this need to keep an eye on the entire competitive landscape, including their
rivals' latest steps and what's moving the needle for them. However, doing this successfully is close to impossible, as there's too much data to look at. One can track official announcements, maybe major Twitter trends, but continually sifting through what the public is saying about the competitors and their products, services is quite a task in itself.
To solve this, Reputation has developed a tool known as Competitive Intelligence. The platform mobilizes a large chunk of
unstructured data in the public domain to provide relevant insights into the market and the active competition.

[3] This week Sarcos Technology and Robotics Corporation
announced a merger with RE2 Robotics, creating a team dedicated to delivering robots that can solve difficult and dangerous problems for the aviation, construction, defense, energy and medical industries.
The
marketplace for robotic solutions is growing and diverging. Some companies like Boeing or AeroVironment are pursuing the military market by building drones and mobile platforms designed for the battlefield. Others like iRobot and Samsung continue to target consumers who need household help tackle chores like vacuuming.
Sarcos and RE2 grew up working on defense projects, but they're now aiming to expand and take on industrial roles. They're particularly interested in supporting and maybe even replacing humans working in
unstructured spaces, where complete automation is difficult today.
