Launch of Europes first global airline industry ETF offers investors pure play exposure to rebounding airline industry Submitted 14/06/2021 - 10:58am The launch of Europes first global airline ETF, US Global Jets UCITS ETF (JETS) on the HANetf platform will deliver exposure to the airline industry as it tracks companies within the commercial airline, aircraft manufacturing, and airport & terminal services industries. The JETS airline ETF will list on the London Stock Exchange in June and will be passported for sale across Europe. Pre-Covid, the airline industry was booming as carriers streamlined operations, improved their balance sheets, and managed to grow profits by introducing more ancillary (non-ticket) fees. The coronavirus disrupted the industry tremendously, but as vaccinations start ramping up around the world and the global economy re-opens, investors are now presented with a unique opportunity to access the recovery story. There is no doubt that 2020 was a difficult 12 months for airline stocks, but from a value investors perspective, this means the industry is on sale at a deep discount.

CO2 Delivery Solutions help greenhouses achieve up to 30% more plant yield Secures first commercial feasibility study in the EU with French ag firm PAT SA Now debt-free with a two-year financial runway What CO2 GRO does: CO2 GRO Inc (CVE:GROW) (OTCQB:BLONF) (FRA:4021) is dedicated to increasing the growth and value of all indoor plants using its advanced CO2 Delivery Solutions. For decades, the Toronto-based company has noted that CO2 gassing has only been used in expensive indoor sealed greenhouses that achieve up to 30% more plant yield. Higher yields are only possible if over 1,000 parts per million (ppm) CO2 levels are maintained throughout the year. Even expensive sealed greenhouses struggle to maintain these levels consistently throughout the year, as up to 50% of the augmented CO2 gas escapes from greenhouses naturally and even more escapes when the greenhouse is vented in warmer months. In response, the company developed its CO2 Delivery Solutions to help all greenhouses achieve up to 30% more plant yield consistently throughout the year.

Benioff-backed software startup helps companies get smarter about climate risk Heather Clancy Thu, 06/03/2021 - 01:30 Will that new $50 million factory be threatened by flooding or wildfires? How many buildings in your companys real-estate portfolio might require climate-adaption retrofits? Questions such as these are fueling a flood of early-stage investment in climate tech that crosses over into the enterprise software realm, as companies seek to integrate data about emissions, resource consumption and risk with more traditional measures of operational efficiency. Indeed, one of the more intriguing venture deals I''ve read about this spring came in late May, when a group of investors including well-known Silicon Valley figures Chris Sacca and Marc Benioff chipped in $30 million for a Series A round for London-based venture Cervest. The funding, led by venture capital firm Draper Esprit, brings Cervests total backing to $36.2 million. "Climate tech has grabbed a lot of attention recently, with good reason," noted Draper Esprit partner Vinoth Jayakumar. "But solutions come from understanding the problem climate intelligence is a new $40 billion market category, which seeks to provide us with answers." Cervest, founded and fronted by former banking and agribusiness exec Iggy Bassi, is developing a platform called EarthScan that corporations can use to map physical assets and assess potential exposure to climate risks. "You need climate science that is at the service of business decisions," Bassi told me.

Summary List Placement Japanese mega-investor Softbank has funneled $250 million into Indian fintech startup Zeta, marking continued investor appetite for companies disrupting legacy banking. The funding comes from Softbank's Vision Fund 2, a multibillion-dollar fund focused on tech startups. Softbank's first Vision Fund backed companies like Uber and WeWork to mixed success. Zeta provides software to financial institutions to power credit, debit, and pre-paid cards, alongside buy now, pay later and deposit services. Companies can plug in via an application programming interface, or API. For example, French hospitality group Sodexo (also a minority investor in the business), uses the platform to manage its employee benefits system and distribute cards for its meal pass offering. "Banks today use several disconnected monolithic software vendors that have been around for 20-plus years," Bhavin Turakhia CEO and cofounder of Zeta said. "As a result they are slow to innovate, provide poor user experience and end up with lower income and higher costs, operating in an inefficient manner." The Bangalore, India-based fintech, founded in 2015, has brought in one of the largest funding rounds for a banking tech company to date at a unicorn valuation of $1.45 billion.

In March, residents in Oranmore, Galway, Ireland, started buying the latest Samsung devices , including the Galaxy S21 Ultra phone. For some, the enthusiasm of a new phone was only part of the joy; the delivery of that phone added a new layer of excitement to the purchase. The devices were delivered by drone. Working in conjunction with drone-as-a-service company Manna , Samsung is testing drone delivery in the Irish countryside. But phones are not the only thing residents of Oranmore are ordering. Dublin, Ireland-based Manna has been working with other brands such as food delivery firm Just Eat , famed ice cream brand Ben & Jerry's and grocery chain Tesco to make deliveries throughout Galway. Bobby Healy, founder and CEO of Manna, told Modern Shipper that some of the orders have been unusual. There was an order for a single head of broccoli, an order for a large melon with nappy cream placed at 9 p.m. at night, and a husband sitting outside the hospital waiting for his wife to give birth who ordered a coffee and croissant for delivery to his vehicle.
