Oracle opens new R&D centre in Morocco
US tech giant Oracle has launched a new research and development (R&D) centre in Casablanca, Morocco, to advance its cloud and AI technologies. The facility aligns with the company's agreement with the Moroccan Ministry of Digital Transition to enhance R&D capabilities in the country. It was inaugurated by Morocco's Government head, Aziz Akhannouch, and Digital Transition and Administration Reform Minister, Amal El Fallah Seghrouchni. The facility, equipped with advanced tools, leverages Oracle's cloud infrastructure, AI, and machine learning (ML) to create solutions for modern businesses and society, the company said. It spans seven floors, featuring an auditorium, restaurant, two gyms, meeting spaces, and prayer rooms. In a statement, Seghrouchni said: 'Establishing the Oracle R&D centre in Morocco reinforces that Morocco is a key player in digital innovation. 'It can compete with global powers thanks to its local talents, skilled youth, and a rapidly maturing ecosystem. Morocco asserts its technological leadership in support of its own development and that of the continent.' The centre, one of ten global Oracle R&D hubs, will employ 1,000 Moroccan IT professionals. Oracle added that it is engaging with top Moroccan institutions to recruit engineering graduates as interns, with 94% of eligible interns last year securing full-time R&D roles. Oracle executive vice president Craig Stephen said: 'Establishing a new Oracle R&D centre in Morocco reflects our commitment to innovation and inclusion—leveraging the country's growing tech talent and strategic location to build cutting-edge solutions for Africa, the Middle East, and beyond.' Beyond R&D, Oracle plans to establish two public cloud regions in Casablanca and Settat. These regions will provide enterprise cloud services to African organisations, enabling migration of critical workloads to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure while ensuring compliance with local regulations. The cloud regions will support modernisation of applications and innovation in AI, data, and analytics for enterprises, startups, universities, and investors across the region. In March 2025, Oracle committed to a $5bn investment over the next five years to enhance its AI-driven cloud services in the UK. This initiative aims to strengthen Oracle Cloud infrastructure in the UK and support the government's efforts to promote AI innovation and adoption across multiple sectors.

QS Energy Receives Initial Order for Multi-Year AOT Technology Deployment
Multi-Billion-Dollar Program With Up To 400 Units Ordered to Modernize Crude Transport Infrastructure TOMBALL, TX / ACCESS Newswire / June 20, 2025 / QS Energy, Inc. (OTCQB:QSEP), a leader in crude oil transport technology, has received a major order to deploy its Applied Oil Technology (AOT) across Southeast Asia and Africa. This marks a breakthrough moment for QS Energy and supports global efforts to modernize and decarbonize crude infrastructure. DELIVERING ON A PROMISE OF INNOVATION AND SUCCESS This initial order of five (5) AOT units launches a broader multi-phase deployment under a government-backed program with VIPS Petroleum. Valued at $25 million with the estimated expected full payment in this quarter, this order kicks off up to a $2 Billion 400-unit framework for South East Asia and Africa. The remaining 395 units will be delivered in milestone-based phases with a 50/25/25 payment structure, ensuring strong cash flow for QS Energy, commencing in Q3 and Q4 2025. AOT's proven results helped open doors with energy ministries and national oil companies. This deal is made possible by VIPS Petroleum, QS Energy's exclusive regional distributor contracted in 2024. Cecil Bond Kyte, CEO of QS Energy, stated: "This order proves our technology's readiness to transform crude transport. With VIPS and the support of ministries and operators, we're setting a new global standard for efficiency and sustainability." THE TECHNOLOGY TRANSFORMING CRUDE TRANSPORT Independently validated through peer-reviewed studies, field trials, and Temple University testing, AOT tackles one of the industry's oldest problems-how to move oil more efficiently. Since the days of Rockefeller's Standard Oil, the sector has battled viscosity, drag, and energy loss. AOT reduces viscosity by 10% or more using electric fields, lowering pump pressure and energy costs. Built for tough, continuous operation, each unit undergoes strict testing to ensure long-term performance. MADE IN AMERICA, BUILT FOR THE WORLD QS Energy proudly designs and manufactures AOT systems in the U.S., powered by American workers. Our partners include: Industrial Screen and Maintenance, a manufacturer with 56+ years of experiencePrecision Urethane, a family business - urethane leader for 55+ yearsReadyFlo, a turnkey ASME pressure vessel specialistForward-MFG, experts in custom electronics and sensors Their dedication helped make this historic deal possible. EXPANDING GLOBAL PARTNERSHIPS AND FINANCING This agreement positions Southeast Asia and Africa as leaders in modern crude transport and job creation. The success of this model is driving expansion talks with Australia, the Middle East, and other regions. QS Energy and VIPS Petroleum are finalizing additional deals to replicate this structure and broaden AOT deployment globally. SECURE IMPLEMENTATION AND COMPLIANCE QS Energy is committed to full transparency through regular updates and strict compliance with U.S., Southeast Asian, and African standards. The program is backed by milestone payments and top-tier financial guarantees, minimizing risk. Lessons from past deployments guide a robust execution plan to ensure every phase meets deadlines and quality benchmarks. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS QS Energy will earn a share of incremental barrels gained through AOT-enabled flow increases, creating long-term performance-based revenue. LOOKING AHEAD With deployment underway, QS Energy is focused on accelerating its role in the energy transition. AOT's cost savings and environmental benefits position it for major global impact.

Ditchit Detonates Iconic Twitter Bird to Symbolize Launch of Local Marketplace
DOVER, DE / ACCESS Newswire / June 20, 2025 / In a fiery spectacle worthy of Silicon Valley lore, Ditchit - a rising star in the online marketplace space and rival to OfferUp - has made headlines by purchasing and then blowing up the original 560-pound Twitter bird sign once perched atop the company's San Francisco headquarters. The marketing stunt, filmed in the Nevada desert with a 15-person production crew, four Tesla Cybertrucks, and a Hollywood pyrotechnics expert, marked a symbolic farewell to legacy tech monopolies and a bold introduction to Ditchit's mission: to build a local marketplace that puts people before profits. "Elon Musk rebranded Twitter to X to support free expression. At Ditchit, we're doing the same for local marketplaces," said Ditchit spokesman James Deluca. "Today's platforms are filled with ads, fees, and algorithms that prioritize businesses over people. Ditchit is different-free to use, ad-free, and designed to support real communities and real sellers." The 12-foot-tall Twitter logo, affectionately known as "Larry," was purchased at auction for $34,000 earlier this year. While the initial acquisition was driven by nostalgia, the company ultimately decided to transform the artifact into a symbol of disruption. The resulting video, now live on YouTube, shows the massive sign's explosive end outside of Las Vegas, capturing a cinematic moment that's already garnering viral attention. But "Larry's" story doesn't end in smoke. Fragments of the sign have been salvaged and will be sold on the Ditchit app in a sealed-bid auction starting today. 100% of proceeds will go to the Center for American Entrepreneurship, a nonprofit that champions startup innovation and supports the next generation of entrepreneurs. "Many entrepreneurs get their start on local marketplace apps," Deluca added. "We're here to support that journey-not just through our platform, but through action." With the stunt, Ditchit isn't just selling a piece of tech history. It's signaling a new era for digital marketplaces - one powered by transparency, accessibility, and the belief that local economies deserve better. About DitchitDitchit is a community-first local marketplace built for everyday buyers and sellers. Unlike traditional platforms, Ditchit is ad-free, fee-free, and designed to keep transactions simple and fair. Founded in 2024, the Ditchit app is available for iOS and Android.
