We're incredibly proud to share that Wireside Communications Co-CEOs RJ Bardsley and Joya Subudhi have been named to the 2026 Innovator 25 Americas by PRovoke Media. What makes this recognition especially meaningful is that PRovoke essentially made this year's class an "Innovator 26," noting that RJ and Joya's contributions were impossible to separate when evaluating the impact Wireside has made over the past year. Since founding Wireside, RJ and Joya have built the agency around a simple belief: the most powerful stories create connection. That philosophy became The Community Effect—our commitment to bringing together reporters, analysts, influencers, creators, clients, and communities around ideas that matter. Over the past year, that approach has come to life through programs including Infineon Technologies's OktoberTech, NTT RESEARCH's Upgrade conference, the NTT Experience at Expo 2025 Osaka, and the NTT R&D Forum, helping make complex technologies more accessible, relevant, and human. As Joya shared with PRovoke, "The future belongs to those who build connections, not just content." We're honored to see RJ and Joya recognized among the communications leaders helping shape the future of our industry, and grateful to our clients, partners, and team members who bring these ideas to life every day. Congratulations, RJ and Joya, on this well-deserved recognition. lnkd.in/eKKfQUWs #Innovator25 #Communications #Leadership #Innovation #AI #CommunityEffect #WiresideCommunications

#AI in insurance is moving beyond demos and into execution. The real challenge isn’t access to AI, it’s the legacy systems and technical debt that prevent insurers from deploying it effectively in production. In a recent piece for @IIReporter, @AnthODonnell, highlights an important point: insurers won’t realize meaningful AI value until they address the legacy systems and technical debt underneath their operations.

We’re entering a new phase of enterprise AI, one where success is no longer defined by how much data you have, but by how effectively you can turn it into agent-driven business outcomes. A recent @Forbes piece from @WillTownTech, he highlights this major shift: traditional data platforms are evolving from passive catalogs into active intelligence layers that power agentic AI systems. Wireside client, @Alation, is helping enterprises move from “data management” to outcome-driven intelligence, where AI agents rely on trusted metadata, context and governance to take action across the business. 🔗forbes.com/sites/willtownsen… #AgenticAI #AI #AIAgents #TechNews #TechPr

The next phase of IoT connectivity is clearly moving toward unified, flexible, and intelligent network orchestration, and (client) @transatel is right in the middle of that shift. In a recent podcast with @embedded_comp on next-gen IoT infrastructure, Cédric Jarkovsky, Director of Product Development & IoT Business, highlighted how the industry is evolving beyond traditional connectivity models. A few key themes stood out: 🔹 eSIM and private 5G enabling truly global, seamless deployments 🔹 End-to-end IoT visibility across devices, networks, and applications 🔹 AI-driven anomaly detection improving reliability and operations at scale Give it a listen to learn more: embeddedcomputing.com/techno… #AI #5G #TechPr #IoT #TechNews
