    Hall of Famer Carmelo Anthony to Be Honored With Prolific, Career-Spanning Exhibit at Baltimore’s Enoch Pratt Free Library

    • Timed with Anthony’s Basketball Hall of Fame induction, ‘House of Melo’ exhibit offers a portal into the NBA icon’s evolution – from his early days in Baltimore to rewriting the rules in boardrooms.

    • Citywide auxiliary experiences will champion entrepreneurship with tools and connections people need to own their dreams.

    BALTIMORE, MARYLAND / ACCESS Newswire / September 4, 2025 / Coinciding with Carmelo Anthony’s enshrinement to the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, the City of Baltimore will host a “House of Melo” exhibit to celebrate the 10-time NBA All-Star, entrepreneur and philanthropist.

    The exhibit opens to the public on Oct. 25 at the historic Enoch Pratt Free Library’s Central location that welcomes half-a-million people annually. Visitors will get to see artifacts representing Anthony’s impact on culture, sports, business and social justice across multiple floors of the 350,000-square-foot Art Deco building that Anthony is now calling “House of Melo HQ.” The exhibit will run through late December.

    “This isn’t just an exhibit – this is my story,” says Anthony. ” Where I’ve been, what I’ve learned and how far I’ve come. I want people to feel inspired to dream big and know it’s possible.” He adds, “You can’t tell that story without Baltimore. This city raised me, challenged me and gave me the drive to grow. Now, I hope my journey can be a blueprint for others chasing theirs.”

    The exhibit and associated programs aim to equip people with the skills to start and sustain their business aspirations.

    Anthony’s desire to embolden future business owners is a timely one, given the current landscape of both unprecedented entrepreneurial growth and persistent hurdles.

    The U.S. Treasury reports an average of 430,000 new business applications being filed per month in 2024 with 43% of self-employed Americans being women, more than ever before. Greater than 70% of small-business owners say constant shifts in trade policy are creating a “whiplash effect”, making it difficult to plan and operate. And, the existing plethora of online courses and job-skill certificate programs appear to be falling short.

    “Carmelo embodies everything that makes Baltimore the best city in America. Determination, grit and deep sense of community pride,” shares Baltimore Mayor Brandon M. Scott. “No matter what higher heights he reaches, he always stays grounded in his values and committed to supporting the next generation – especially young people following his footsteps in Baltimore. We are so proud to celebrate his career and his legacy through this exhibition.”

    D. Watkins (award-winning writer and co-author of Anthony’s memoir) and Khalilah Beavers (Anthony’s stylist and creative director of nearly 20 years) are producing and designing the exhibit with support from creative and experiential agencies Valerie and Verb.

    According to Watkins, initial planning conversations began in November of 2024.

    “Carmelo was very adamant about anchoring the experience at the Pratt, because it’s a free library. No tickets. No reservations required. It’s a space where everyone is welcome and can be comfortable,” adds Watkins, who stressed the exhibit and all associated programming is free to attend.

    Additional details and announcements will become available at TheHouseofMelo.com, including digital tour elements for those unable to visit.

    “The Pratt Library is honored to celebrate Carmelo at this historic moment,” says Enoch Pratt Free Library CEO Chad Helton. “He means so much to Baltimore, and it’s fitting that this free exhibit and branch programs reflect both his impact and the Library’s mission. Like the Pratt, his story shows the power of making history, culture and opportunity open to everyone.”

    Beavers and team have combed through storage facilities, sports authority and longtime collaborator archives, and family and die-hard fans’ personal collections to curate the exhibit.

    “The details are everything,” shares Beavers. “We’re hitting the highlights at a new frequency, but what I’m most proud of is the care to give people access to pieces of Carmelo you can’t search for – things previously unseen and unsaid. And, giving shine to cherished art and mementos fans have created.

    “For all Carmelo has achieved, so many still see him singularly – as a ballplayer. They don’t understand he’s become a powerful businessperson, community activist and leader. Baltimore has gifted Carmelo with legendary resilience, and this overall experience will allow people to see the true magic the City of Baltimore has to offer,” says Watkins.

    Baltimore’s economy has been showing signs of stabilization and recovery in recent years, with key indicators pointing to positive growth despite ongoing challenges. Baltimore City’s unemployment rate reached historic lows, as of mid-2025 the employment rate was around 4.8% and the city recorded its fewest homicides in over 50 years.

    “What’s happening politically is a distraction that’s taken away from what we really need to talk about: helping people, skill sharing, community building and being generous with the connections you have,” says Anthony. “We’re bringing back the focus in Baltimore, at my house, where people can get inspired and have a launchpad for doing the things that feel empowering to them.”

  • Voiso Champions Industry-Tailored Customer Success for Lasting Contact Center Outcomes

    Voiso Champions Industry-Tailored Customer Success for Lasting Contact Center Outcomes

    New York, New York – September 04, 2025 – (PRESS ADVANTAGE) –

    Voiso, the AI-powered contact center platform helping global businesses deliver human-first customer experiences at scale, today reaffirmed its commitment to customer success through tailored, industry-specific onboarding and support strategies.

    With clients spanning fintech, eCommerce, travel, healthcare, and BPO sectors, Voiso has observed that a one-size-fits-all approach to implementation and support is insufficient in today’s complex contact center environment. While many organizations share common goals, improving agent productivity, increasing answer rates, and reducing handling time, the operational models and definitions of success vary significantly by industry.

    “Customer success starts with empathy, not just for the customer’s goals, but for how their business actually works,” said Dejan Begovic, Customer Success Manager at Voiso. “We’ve seen time and again that the same platform can solve different problems depending on whether you’re in finance, retail, or outsourced support. Our role is to translate the flexibility of Voiso’s platform into a configuration that feels purpose-built for each client.”

    This tailored approach begins before deployment. Rather than leading with product features, Voiso’s Customer Success team prioritizes discovery. By understanding regulatory requirements, business constraints, and operational pressures, the team is able to implement Voiso in a way that aligns with client-specific needs. For example, fintech clients often emphasize compliance and audit readiness, while BPOs typically require agility across multiple geographies and SLA transparency.

    Begovic noted that this mindset shift, from feature-focused onboarding to operational alignment, is a key differentiator. “We’re not here to show off software. We’re here to ask the right questions: What does success look like for your agents? What do your ops leads worry about at scale? That’s where real value is unlocked.”

    One case involved a client in the travel industry who initially sought only a basic call routing solution. Upon closer collaboration, Voiso’s team identified a deeper need to manage seasonal call spikes without sacrificing personalization. Using Voiso’s Flow Builder and predictive dialer, the client was able to optimize their call handling strategy, ultimately increasing customer satisfaction during peak periods.

    As Voiso scales, it continues to prioritize personalization across its Customer Success function. While the platform’s onboarding framework and dashboards are designed for efficiency, the application of those tools is deliberately individualized. Whether spotlighting specific integrations or adapting training methods, the Voiso team ensures each client journey remains context-aware and outcome-driven.

    This ethos aligns with Voiso’s brand promise: Every interaction, a human connection. “That promise applies not just to how our clients engage with their customers, but also to how we engage with them,” said Begovic. “When a client tells us we feel like an extension of their own team, we know we’ve done something right.”

    Voiso’s emphasis on tailored support is part of its broader mission to simplify contact center complexity while enabling deep, meaningful customer engagement. By combining flexible AI-driven tools with consultative, industry-sensitive onboarding, the company continues to set a new standard for contact center software partnerships.

    About Voiso

    Voiso is an AI-powered contact center platform designed to help global teams deliver seamless, human-level customer interactions at scale. Offering omnichannel capabilities, AI speech analytics, real-time dashboards, flow automation, and predictive dialing, Voiso simplifies operations across sales and support environments worldwide.

    Pimlico London Victoria Dentist Completes Major Refurbishment at McKennell Dental Practice

    City of Westminster, England – September 04, 2025 – (PRESS ADVANTAGE) –

    McKennell Dental Practice in Pimlico has completed a major refurbishment, unveiling a modernised clinic that promises to change the way patients experience dental care in the London Victoria area. Located just minutes from Victoria Station, the long-established practice has been serving the community for decades, since 1930, and has now invested significantly to upgrade its premises. The result is a contemporary and welcoming environment designed with patient comfort in mind. The development reflects the practice’s commitment to offering dentistry that combines clinical excellence with a reassuring atmosphere.

    The upgraded premises include redesigned treatment rooms, improved accessibility, and a patient lounge that prioritises comfort and calmness. The practice has also introduced the latest digital technology, from advanced radiography and 3D intraoral dental imaging to updated sterilisation systems, ensuring greater accuracy in diagnosis and enhanced safety across all treatments. The refurbishment and upgrades aim to make even routine check-ups a more positive experience, encouraging more people to attend regularly. For those seeking details about dentists in Pimlico and the Victoria area, further information is available at https://smile4u.co.uk/dentist-pimlico-london-victoria.

    McKennel Dental Practice

    The refurbishment coincides with the practice’s ongoing efforts to broaden its treatment offering and provide central London patients with a full spectrum of care. NHS dentistry as well as private general dentistry continue to form the foundation, with routine check-ups, dental hygiene appointments, emergency dental treatments and preventive advice readily available. Cosmetic dentistry remains popular, with Invisalign, teeth whitening, composite bonding and veneers offered to help patients improve their smile. Families in particular are expected to benefit from the practice’s central location and flexible appointment options.

    One of the most significant aspects of the practice’s service is its provision of dental implants. McKennell Dental Practice offers all levels of implant care, from replacing a single tooth to full arch restorations for those who have lost several teeth. These treatments are delivered in-house using advanced implant technology, giving patients reliable, natural-looking, and long-lasting results. With the new facilities in place, the team is now able to provide implant care more efficiently and in a more comfortable setting. Information about other services across the dental practices in the group can be found at https://smile4u.co.uk.

    The principal dentist, Dr Mori Shahid, noted that preventive dentistry remains central to the practice’s ethos. By encouraging patients to visit regularly and focus on good oral health, the team aims to help the community reduce the need for complex interventions in the future. The new facilities make it easier to provide these preventive services in an efficient and patient-friendly way. Whether for a nervous patient attending their first visit or a busy professional seeking a lunchtime appointment, the refurbished practice is designed to meet modern expectations.

    “The project represents not just an investment in the building, but also in the long-term health of patients in Pimlico and London Victoria,” stated Maryam Shahid, the Practice Manager. “By bringing together state-of-the-art equipment with a comfortable and accessible space, McKennell Dental Practice positions itself as a trusted destination for high-quality dentistry in central London.”

    Patients are invited to see the changes for themselves and to take advantage of the upgraded environment when booking their next appointment.

  • Jarsy, Inc.: Recognized for Excellence in the Best Pre–IPO Marketplace Sector in 2025

    Jarsy, Inc.: Recognized for Excellence in the Best Pre–IPO Marketplace Sector in 2025

    Menlo Park, California – September 04, 2025 – (PRESS ADVANTAGE) –

    NEW YORK, NY – Jarsy, Inc., an emerging fintech platform aiming to democratize retail access to high-growth pre-IPO companies, has been honored with a prestigious industry title for its contributions to the Best Pre-IPO Marketplace sector. In an investment landscape where access to premier private market opportunities remains a significant challenge, this recognition—based on a comprehensive poll of investors and financial experts—highlights the impactful progress Jarsy is making. The accolade underscores the company’s unwavering commitment to building the Best Pre-IPO Marketplace for the modern retail investor.

    This recognition highlights Jarsy’s innovative approach to leveling the playing field. A key element of this model is providing low-barrier investment opportunities, with access starting from as little as $10. This innovation is built upon a tokenized, equity-backed structure. Through this model, a dedicated Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) managed by Jarsy acquires and holds shares of private companies. Subsequently, Jarsy creates digital tokens representing a corresponding economic interest in those shares, allowing for fractional access. This structure, verified by a public Proof-of-Reserve system and integrated with flexible global payment options, simplifies a traditionally cumbersome process into a seamless, digital experience.

    “Receiving this recognition within the Best Pre-IPO Marketplace category is an encouraging milestone that reinforces our core mission: to make high-growth investment opportunities more accessible,” said Han Qin, CEO of Jarsy, Inc. “We founded Jarsy with the belief that financial empowerment stems not just from access, but from informed participation. This award validates our vision to build an ecosystem grounded in transparency and education. Our focus remains on empowering a new generation of investors to confidently back the innovations they believe in.”

    Jarsy’s intuitive platform is instrumental in bridging the critical gap between retail investors and the private market. The user experience is designed for simplicity, digitizing the often-complex transaction lifecycle. While the platform offers access related to companies such as SpaceX, Anthropic, and Stripe for illustrative purposes, all investment opportunities are based on platform disclosures and have not been independently verified by a third-party institution.

    The pre-IPO market presents a unique opportunity for early-stage value creation, yet it is fraught with complexities. Jarsy directly addresses these issues by aggregating capital and handling the intricate legal overhead. This commitment to solving user pain points is a cornerstone of what defines the Best Pre-IPO Marketplace. As the platform is still in its developing stage, prospective users should be aware of the inherent risks. The acknowledgment of Jarsy’s role within the Best Pre-IPO Marketplace landscape serves as a powerful catalyst for our continued improvement and dedication to this mission.

    Important Risk Disclosure: Jarsy, Inc. is not a registered broker-dealer or investment advisor. Investments involve risks and may not be suitable for all investors. Prospective investors should perform their own due diligence and consult professional advisors before investing.

    About Jarsy, Inc.: Jarsy is an emerging fintech platform allowing retail investors to access high-growth pre‑IPO and private equity opportunities—like SpaceX, Anthropic, and Stripe—starting from $10. By removing traditional barriers and providing institutional-grade access and insights, the platform makes it simple for anyone to build a diverse, forward-thinking portfolio of private market assets. By combining cutting-edge technology with a steadfast commitment to accessibility and investor education, Jarsy is dedicated to empowering individuals worldwide to invest in the visionary companies shaping tomorrow’s economy.

  • Big Easy Roofing Announces Expanded Service Commitment to Address Rising Roofing Demands

    Big Easy Roofing Announces Expanded Service Commitment to Address Rising Roofing Demands

    New Orleans, LA Big Easy Roofing has announced an expanded commitment to serve homeowners and businesses across Southern Louisiana, reinforcing its capacity to meet the increasing demand for qualified roofing professionals in a region shaped by severe weather and evolving insurance requirements. With more than 30 years of experience, the company continues to focus on solutions that prioritize durability, safety, and responsive service.

    The Gulf South has special difficulties for property owners. Hurricanes, seasonal storms, and prolonged humidity create constant strain on residential and commercial roofing systems. Recently, shifting weather patterns and heightened insurance scrutiny have only increased the importance of timely, reliable roofing work. Recognizing this, Big Easy Roofing is strengthening its operational footprint to ensure faster response times for emergency repairs while maintaining support for long-term replacement and improvement projects.

    According to the company, one of the primary areas of focus in 2025 will be enhancing its capacity for urgent roof replacement services. The team has invested in resources to better address these time-sensitive needs. This approach builds on the company’s decades of experience with both historic properties and modern construction, adapting proven techniques to the environmental demands of Southern Louisiana.

    “Homeowners and businesses in this region face circumstances that few other parts of the country experience,” said a spokesperson for Big Easy Roofing. “Our goal is to ensure peace of mind by addressing roofing issues quickly, safely, and in compliance with all applicable standards.” This expanded commitment reflects our ongoing role as a partner to the communities we serve.”

    Another priority for the company is supporting property owners as they navigate complex insurance claims. After hurricanes and other severe weather events, many find the claims process confusing and stressful. Big Easy Roofing continues to provide assessments and documentation to help clients move through these procedures with clarity. The company views this service as a way of reducing barriers to recovery while helping residents protect their investments.

    The service area includes New Orleans and surrounding parishes, with teams positioned to cover communities such as Metairie, Kenner, Gretna, Slidell, Covington, Mandeville, and Baton Rouge. By operating across multiple sites, the company is able to mobilize crews quickly in the aftermath of storms while maintaining the capacity for scheduled maintenance and installation projects.

    Materials and installation practices remain a cornerstone of Big Easy Roofing’s approach. Systems are constructed with products that meet or exceed regional building codes and account for the realities of high-wind zones. Installation methods adhere to manufacturer standards and local best practices, ensuring that roofs are built to withstand the unique climate pressures of Southern Louisiana.

    The company’s announcement comes at a time when demand for reliable roofing professionals is at a high point. As weather events grow more frequent and insurers set stricter requirements for coverage, property owners are seeking contractors who combine technical skill with local knowledge. Big Easy Roofing aims to meet that demand by reinforcing both its workforce and service readiness.

    A roof is more than a structural feature; it protects families, businesses, and communities. For over three decades, Big Easy Roofing has been part of that responsibility in Louisiana, focusing on projects that safeguard property and provide long-term value. With this expanded service commitment, the company affirms its role as a resource for homeowners and businesses who need solutions rooted in experience and designed for the realities of the Gulf South.

    New to The Street Signs Media Partnership with Sharps Technology (NASDAQ: STSS) as Company Announces Over $400M Solana (SOL) Treasury Acquisition

    NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 4, 2025 / New to The Street, one of the longest-running U.S. and international financial media platforms broadcasting as sponsored programming on Fox Business and Bloomberg Television, today announced a media partnership with Sharps Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq:STSS, STSSW), a medical device and drug delivery company. The announcement comes as Sharps Technology revealed its first major digital asset acquisition-over 2 million SOL, the native asset of the Solana blockchain-valued north of $400 million.This acquisition makes Sharps Technology the largest publicly-listed Solana treasury globally, funded by a PIPE Transaction which could raise up to $1 billion in aggregate gross proceeds if all of the warrants are exercised.

    Sharps Technology confirmed that its SOL acquisition was funded through a recent PIPE equity raise with up to $1 billion in aggregate gross proceeds if all of the warrants are exercised and that it will provide regular updates on holdings and performance to ensure maximum transparency for shareholders.

  • The Silent Heist: How Alzheimer’s Bankrupts Families Long Before It Steals Memories & The $2 Million Fight Back

    The Silent Heist: How Alzheimer’s Bankrupts Families Long Before It Steals Memories & The $2 Million Fight Back

    NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 4, 2025 / The inheritance was not in a will. It was buried in bank statements, drained from 401(k)s, and etched in the exhausted eyes of a daughter who sold her future to buy her mother more time. This is the legacy Alzheimer’s leaves in America; not just fading memory, but the quiet theft of financial security, dignity, and peace of mind, years before the final goodbye.

    While headlines spotlight pharmaceutical breakthroughs, the reality in millions of homes is a different story: desperate arithmetic and impossible choices. Do I pay for my child’s tuition or my parent’s memory care? Do I work the night shift to pay the mortgage, or do I stay home to provide the 137 hours of unpaid care each month? Medicare provides the cruelest answer of all: $0 coverage for long-term custodial care.

    In 2025, the Alzheimer’s Family of Friends Foundation (AFOF) is refusing to let this crisis remain invisible. The nonprofit has launched a bold $2 million fundraising campaign; not to fund distant laboratory research, but to provide direct, immediate relief to caregivers and families who need help tonight.

    The Math of Desperation

    The crisis is staggering, and the numbers tell a grim story:

    • Skilled Nursing Facilities: More than $110,000 per year; the cost of a luxury estate for a single room.

    • Home Care: $21 per hour, or more than $40,000 annually for part-time assistance.

    • Unpaid Caregiving: 137 hours per month; the equivalent of a second full-time job.

    “We’ve medicalized dementia while refusing to medicalize its care,” says Dr. Eleanor Chang, geriatric economist. “It is like diagnosing cancer but forcing patients to buy their own chemotherapy pumps.”

    This vacuum has created what AFOF calls “the underground economy of desperation.” Families are pawning heirlooms, selling military medals, and taking payday loans at 300% interest. Some even delay their own life-saving treatments to keep a parent alive.

    Donate Now to stop this cycle of despair.

    The $2 Million Lifeline: Where the Money Will Go

    AFOF’s campaign is a rebellion against financial collapse. Every dollar has a clear destination:

    1. $1.5 Million: Direct Family Assistance – Emergency grants to stop evictions, subsidize adult day care, and cover what insurance ignores; from wheelchair pads to funeral costs.

    2. $300,000: Administration & Oversight – Ensuring transparency, accountability, and efficient delivery of aid.

    3. $200,000: Marketing & Outreach – Expanding awareness and reaching isolated families who believe they are alone.

    This funding empowers AFOF’s cornerstone programs: caregiver respite hours, crisis grants, financial navigation support, and dignity funds. These aren’t abstract initiatives; they are lifelines.

    Why This Matters Now

    Alzheimer’s research is essential, but science moves slowly. Families need relief today.

    • $3,500 can prevent a family from being evicted.

    • $18,000 funds a year of adult day care.

    • $110,000 pays for a full year in skilled nursing.

    “Families are mortgaging their futures to provide care,” says Miriam Okafor, Executive Director of AFOF. “We cannot ask them to wait decades for a cure. We must give them support before dinner tonight.”

    Be part of the resistance; Donate Now.

    How You Can Help: Join the Family of Friends

    AFOF offers multiple ways for individuals and corporations to take action:

    • The 24-Hour Challenge: All donations made today will be doubled by a coalition of matching donors.

    • The Continuous Care Circle: A pledge of $100/month covers exactly what Medicare won’t; non-medical essentials that protect safety and dignity.

    • The Legacy Pledge: Designate AFOF in your estate plan, leaving future generations a legacy of compassion.

    Ways to give:

    Online: Donate now through AFOF’s secure portal.
    Corporate Sponsorships: Align your brand with a movement of dignity and compassion.
    Mail Checks To:
    Alzheimer’s Family of Friends, Inc.
    5999 Caladium Lane
    Thomson, GA 30824


    A Legacy Worth Leaving

    “When you donate to AFOF, you’re not just giving money; you’re giving peace of mind,” Okafor adds. “You are lifting the weight of impossible decisions off a caregiver’s shoulders. You are giving a family their future back.”

    The inheritance of Alzheimer’s doesn’t have to be one of financial ruin. Together, we can rewrite the legacy into one of compassion, dignity, and shared responsibility.

    Donate Now and become the lifeline a family desperately needs.
