Concordium and Arivu partner to Combat Greenwashing with Blockchain Verification

ZUG, Switzerland, March 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Concordium announces it is partnering with Arivu, a Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS) provider that specializes in ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) reporting verification. The partnership aims to tackle the growing issue of greenwashing by providing companies with verified ESG data, evidence, and assurance.

Arivu’s platform leverages blockchain verification to reduce costs and minimize effort when it comes to audit and compliance, representing a more cost-effective and efficient way for companies to report ESG data and do their part in the fight against climate change.

With the latest European research calling out a reported 42% of “green” claims for being “exaggerated, false, or deceptive,” greenwashing is a dangerous practice that negatively impacts both a company’s reputation and bottom line. The partnership with Arivu is a testament to Concordium’s commitment to fighting climate change through the use of groundbreaking blockchain-based solutions, as was the case with previous collaborations with ClimaFiEnerginet and Carbotanix

Through its EasyWriter product, Arivu provides off-chain companies and projects with an easy-to-use interface for different use-case requirements. The platform supports both small and large payloads, with small payload data containing the hash of the binary data, blockchain name, and transaction ID, and large payloads being written to file storage public blockchains.

Arivu is on a mission to provide companies with a trusted way to own, prove and share their sustainability transition by making it easier to identify and manage risk exposure across supply chains. With Concordium’s enterprise-grade blockchain technology, Arivu’s EasyWriter platform can verify ESG data and provide immutable proof of its accuracy. 

“We are delighted to partner with Concordium to help companies solve the challenge of investor and public trust in their sustainability claims. Our combined capabilities are a game-changer for corporates.”  Matthew Nelson, CEO of Arivu.

“Together, Concordium and Arivu are working towards a more transparent and sustainable future, where ESG reporting is verified and accurate, and greenwashing is a thing of the past,” says Torben Kaaber, Head of Commercial at Concordium.

Tencent Music Entertainment Group Introduces TME UNI Chart on Billboard to Promote Chinese Music in Global Markets

SHENZHEN, China, Feb. 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Tencent Music Entertainment Group (“TME,” or the “Company”) (NYSE: TME and HKEX: 1698), the leading online music and audio entertainment platform in China, today announced the integration of TME UNI Chart on Billboard’s official global website, introducing the most popular Chinese music to a worldwide audience while bringing broader international opportunities to Chinese musicians and high-quality works.

As a global music media brand, Billboard has built a strong reputation among artists, fans, and the industry at large over the past century. Billboard powers the ultimate global music destination and magazine, featuring unrivaled reporting on music news, issues, trends, while providing the industry’s definitive charts, including the most complete and well-respected database of charts across all music genres.

Entering 2023, TME has expanded TME UNI Chart’s data resources, building the most comprehensive and credible dataset through multi-dimensional statistical algorithms. Besides the existing seven platforms, including TME’s QQ Music, Kugou Music, Kuwo Music, and WeSing, the chart now also incorporates the data from JOOX, a music streaming service for Hong Kong and South East Asia, and Weixin Video Accounts, a short video platform within China’s most popular app, WeChat. In addition, it provides data relating to radio stations. TME UNI Chart now covers the most data resources in the Chinese music market.

Launched in 2018, the TME UNI Chart is designed to leverage data technologies to present the authentic popularity of music in China. Through years of upgrades to its dataset and algorithms, and optimization of multi-dimensional evaluation standards, the chart has become an indicator of popularity of new Chinese music releases.  

The TME UNI chart contains data collected from hundreds of millions of music streams, and the TME Wave Chart is a list based on the professional perspectives of over a hundred musicians. Together, the two charts have built a ranking ecosystem for TME, presenting the Chinese music scene with a comprehensive, authentic, impartial and objective view to provide valuable references to music lovers, musicians and the industry.

Through this partnership with Billboard, TME UNI Chart will not only promote the exchange of data between global authoritative music charts but also help Chinese artists receive more attention from overseas audiences, resulting in the promotion of high-quality Chinese music throughout the world. 

TME has long been striving for the construction of global cultural communication channels and platforms for Chinese original music. In 2022, partnering with Billboard, TME announced the “Chinese Music Gravity Project”, a first-of-its-kind initiative dedicated to championing Chinese music across the globe. The two parties have since implemented a number of initiatives to promote Chinese original music on the global stage. TME will continue the deep strategic cooperation with Billboard to bring selected music content to music lovers and to promote the presence of Chinese original music globally.

“Today sees another step towards ‘better BIM,'” said Solibri CEO Ville Kyytsönen. “Solibri’s mission is to improve the quality of digital construction. BIM is essential in this mission – it is the ‘single source of truth.’ Solibri is improving the quality of models by bringing quality checking as part of the model authoring process. With Solibri Inside, we improve the process by enabling more QA early in the process before coordination takes place.”
