  • Max Amini and Bobby Samini Launch Initiative to Raise Awareness of Current Events in Iran and Stand in Solidarity with the Iranian People

    Max Amini and Bobby Samini Launch Initiative to Raise Awareness of Current Events in Iran and Stand in Solidarity with the Iranian People

    LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESS Newswire / March 2, 2026 / Internationally recognized comedian and public figure Max Amini and renowned celebrity trial attorney and advocate Bobby Samini today announced the launch of a new awareness initiative dedicated to shining a light on the ongoing events in Iran and supporting the courageous Iranian people in their struggle for freedom against the Islamic Republic of Iran.

    Max Amini highlighted the cultural and emotional significance of the initiative.

    “As someone with deep ties to the Iranian community, this is personal,” Amini said. “Art, comedy, and storytelling have always been tools to connect people and speak truth. We want the world to see, hear, and stand with the people of Iran as they courageously fight for their rights. We are hopeful that we will soon witness a free and democratic Iran. We must stand with the people of Iran at this critical time. We know that the regime will respond with unprecedented brutality against its own people.”

    Bobby Samini, whose family roots trace back to Iran, emphasized the deeply personal nature of the effort.

    “The unfolding strikes in Iran have ignited a fragile but undeniable sense of hope among millions who have long dreamed of a free, democratic nation-one where dignity, liberty, and human rights are not crimes, but guarantees. Samini said. “Especially among Iran’s youth, there is a growing belief that meaningful change is finally within reach. Yet that hope is inseparable from grave concern. The Islamic regime has used overwhelming violence against its own people to maintain power, and they will again resort to mass bloodshed-even on a catastrophic scale-rather than relinquish control. Tragically, over fifty thousand young people have paid for it with their lives. Women and girls have been specifically targeted and the subject of horrific sexual abuse. History will mark this as the Iranian people’s most difficult hour.”

    “We are witnessing unprecedented humanitarian violations in Iran,” said Samini. “This movement is driven by Iran’s young generation – Generation Z students, artists, and young people who refuse to inherit silence and repression. They have shown extraordinary courage.”

    Through media outreach, social campaigns, and partnerships with human rights organizations, the initiative will focus on:

    • Raising global awareness of the ongoing situation in Iran

    • Highlighting stories of protesters and affected families

    • Encouraging public support for the Iranian people’s fight for freedom

    Additional details, upcoming activations, and ways to support will be announced in the coming weeks.

  • TCS Blockchain and PayPal Drive Financial Innovation in Trucking & Transportation Industry

    Digital Asset Settlement of Freight Invoices Delivers Savings, Speed and Transparency

    CASPER, WY / ACCESS Newswire / March 3, 2026 / TCS Blockchain, a transportation trade finance provider, and PayPal USD are engaging to scale solutions for trucking and transportation companies (carriers). The collaboration will allow more carriers to settle freight invoices faster and cheaper, utilizing digital assets on blockchain rails.

    For nearly half a century, carriers have been forced to sell freight invoices to factoring companies (financial intermediaries) to avoid 30-180 day pay terms – often surrendering 30% or more of their net revenues just to get paid. Together, a leader in transportation trade finance and a leader in digital payments and digital assets, TCS Blockchain and PayPal USD are solving the cash-flow challenges in North American supply chains.

    TCS Blockchain settled the world’s first freight invoice on-chain in 2022 and has now utilized nearly 30,000,000 TCS Tokens in B2B settlement. TCS provides same-day funding, in non-exclusive agreements, with no reserve fees, up to 90% cheaper than traditional invoice factoring.

    “If we were designing B2B payments from scratch, we wouldn’t accept months‑long settlement and layers of fees. We’d expect speed, transparency, and 24/7 availability,” said May Zabaneh, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Crypto at PayPal. “The engagement with TCS Blockchain demonstrates how on‑chain settlement can upgrade legacy payment flows in cash‑critical industries, proving that digital assets can drive real economic activity.”

    “TCS is on pace for over one billion in annual freight invoice flows in 2026. Those flows will first move through TCS Token – on the INX-Republic exchange – and then through the PYUSD stablecoin,” advised Todd Ziegler, TCS Blockchain CEO. “With PayPal USD, TCS can offer even greater savings on invoice settlement to carriers, and the best fuel card on the market. The engagement is a tremendous win for truckers, freight brokerages, and at-scale carriers.”

    Blockchain and digital assets are already driving value in the $3 trillion-dollar industry:

    • Savings: Up to 90% cheaper than traditional invoice factoring

    • Speed: TCS supports same-day settlement, 365 days per year, no banking rails needed

    • Transparency: Public and immutable transaction data, verifiable by all parties

    Transportation carriers can utilize TCS solutions with ease. After onboarding with TCS, carriers set up an account at INX-Republic, permitting the settlement of invoices by seamlessly converting TCS Tokens to U.S. Dollars with just a few clicks. The PYUSD stablecoin will serve as the back-end settlement currency for all related flows.

    About TCS Blockchain

    TCS Blockchain settled the world’s first freight invoice on-chain, and now offers the best user experience in the $3T+ North American transportation industry. TCS supports truckers, brokers, and at-scale carriers – and benefits consumers and households – by disintermediating factoring incumbents and mitigating financial waste in supply chains.

    About PayPal USD (PYUSD)

    PayPal USD is issued by Paxos Trust Company, N.A., a fully-chartered trust company regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). Reserves for PayPal USD are fully backed by U.S. dollar deposits, U.S. Treasuries and similar cash equivalents, and PayPal USD can be bought or sold through PayPal and Venmo at a rate of $1.00 per PayPal USD.

    PayPal, Inc. (NMLS ID #: 910457) is licensed to engage in Virtual Currency Business Activity by the New York State Department of Financial Services.

  • Jaguar Health Secures an Additional $3 Million Payment from Future Pak for Mytesi and Canalevia-CA1

    As announced, Jaguar received an up-front payment of $16M of non-dilutive capital in January 2026 upon entering U.S. license agreement with Future Pak for Mytesi® and Canalevia®-CA1 – Jaguar’s two commercialized crofelemer drugs – an agreement that is fully aligned with company’s strategy to concentrate crofelemer development efforts on human rare-disease intestinal failure indications

    SAN FRANCISCO, CA / ACCESS Newswire / March 3, 2026 / Jaguar Health, Inc. (NASDAQ:JAGX) today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary Napo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (collectively, with Jaguar Health, Inc., “Jaguar”) has received a $3 million payment from Future Pak, LLC (“Future Pak”) following termination by Jaguar of the buy-back provision of the U.S. licensing agreement Jaguar entered in January 2026 with a Future Pak affiliate, which allows Future Pak to continue to commercialize Mytesi beyond five years. Jaguar will continue to manufacture Mytesi and Canalevia-CA1 for Future Pak.

    Under the terms of the agreement, Future Pak became the exclusive marketer for Mytesi (crofelemer), Jaguar’s FDA-approved novel prescription drug for the symptomatic relief of noninfectious diarrhea in adult patients with HIV/AIDS on antiretroviral therapy, and Canalevia-CA1, Jaguar’s crofelemer prescription drug for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced diarrhea in dogs. Jaguar was provided with $16 million of non-dilutive capital in January 2026 upon closing of the agreement with Future Pak, with an additional $2 million due to Jaguar upon completion of post-closing conditions. Per the terms of the agreement, Jaguar also has the opportunity to receive up to $20 million in milestone payments and other future payments.

    “As announced, the agreement has a buy-back option that provides Jaguar with the unilateral right to repurchase all of the licensed rights from Future Pak starting five years after the agreement effective date, provided that certain regulatory milestones are met,” said Lisa Conte, Jaguar’s founder, president, and CEO. “Per the terms of the agreement, Jaguar receives $3 million by terminating the buy-back option. In the interest of generating additional non-dilutive capital for Jaguar, I am pleased to announce that we have received the $3 million payment from Future Pak.”

    “Our agreement with Future Pak is fully aligned with our strategy to concentrate Jaguar’s crofelemer development efforts on human rare-disease indications, particularly intestinal failure, where we continue to advance business development discussions with additional potential partners,” Conte said.

    Crofelemer continues to advance as a potential treatment for rare forms of intestinal failure, including intestinal failure due to short bowel syndrome (SBS-IF) and microvillus inclusion disease (MVID). Multiple investigator-initiated and company-sponsored studies of crofelemer are ongoing in the U.S., the European Union and the United Arab Emirates, with initial proof-of-concept data showing significant reductions in parenteral support (PS) requirements in pediatric MVID and SBS-IF patients.

    Jaguar’s intestinal failure program is expected to continue to provide clinical proof-of-concept milestones, and the company is targeting Breakthrough Therapy designation for crofelemer for the indication of MVID, with a planned filing of an NDA (New Drug Application) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for this indication in the first half of 2027.

    Intestinal failure is a debilitating condition that often requires patients to receive life-sustaining fluids, electrolytes and nutrients through intravenous administration, which consists of total parenteral nutrition (TPN) with supplemental intravenous fluids, which together constitute PS. Many intestinal failure patients require PS up to 7 days a week, and sometimes for 20 hours or more per day. While crucial for intestinal failure patients, PS is associated with significant toxicities to patients, similar to some toxicities associated with chemotherapy, often causing serious health problems including infections, metabolic complications, and liver and kidney function problems. These symptoms may emerge at any time in intestinal failure patients and often become life-threatening.

    About Crofelemer

    Crofelemer is a novel, oral plant-based prescription medicine purified from the red bark sap, also referred to as “dragon’s blood,” of the Croton lechleri tree in the Amazon Rainforest. Napo Pharmaceuticals has established a sustainable harvesting program, under fair trade practices, for crofelemer to ensure a high degree of quality, ecological integrity, and support for indigenous communities.

    About the Jaguar Health Family of Companies

    Jaguar Health, Inc. (Jaguar) is a commercial stage pharmaceuticals company focused on developing novel proprietary prescription medicines sustainably derived from plants from rainforest areas for people and animals with gastrointestinal distress, specifically associated with overactive bowel, which includes symptoms such as chronic debilitating diarrhea, urgency, bowel incontinence, and cramping pain. Jaguar family company Napo Pharmaceuticals (Napo) focuses on developing and commercializing human prescription pharmaceuticals for essential supportive care and management of neglected gastrointestinal symptoms across multiple complicated disease states. Napo’s crofelemer is FDA-approved under the brand name Mytesi® for the symptomatic relief of noninfectious diarrhea in adults with HIV/AIDS on antiretroviral therapy. Jaguar family company Napo Therapeutics is an Italian corporation Jaguar established in Milan, Italy in 2021 focused on expanding crofelemer access in Europe and specifically for orphan diseases.

    About Mytesi®

    Mytesi (crofelemer) is an antidiarrheal indicated for the symptomatic relief of noninfectious diarrhea in adult patients with HIV/AIDS on antiretroviral therapy (ART).

  • Introducing Smart Import(TM), RightCapital’s Revolutionary AI-Powered Tool to Reduce the Time to Manually Input Plan Data by 70%

    Smart Import’s new AI features enable advisors to create new and update existing financial plans faster than ever before.

    SHELTON, CT / ACCESS Newswire / March 3, 2026 / RightCapital, the fastest-growing financial planning software for financial advisors, today announced a first-of-its-kind tool in financial planning software to transform the client plan data entry process. The Smart Import feature leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to read data from documents uploaded into RightCapital, identify information relevant to a client’s financial plan, and translate that information into financial plan inputs. This solution addresses one of the key challenges for financial planners: maintaining accurate and up-to-date information within client plans. Advisors and their assistants can leverage this feature to support new or existing client plans. RightCapital’s internal testing indicated significant time savings, with many test cases showing time savings of 70% or greater when compared to manually entering data.

    “At RightCapital, we are constantly exploring new solutions to help advisors deliver high quality financial plans with efficiency,” said Shuang Chen, co-founder and CEO of RightCapital. “We identified that the most time-consuming component to financial planning in RightCapital is data entry. With Smart Import, we can automate much of this data entry, creating significant efficiencies for advisors.”

    Smart Import is designed to read and reformat unstructured data into structured data that can be added into a client’s financial plan. Advisors can simply upload documents – such as meeting transcripts, investment statements, and client emails – directly into RightCapital. Once uploaded, the system will automatically identify key income, savings, expenses, goals, net worth details, and investment account holdings information which the advisor can review and approve before uploading into a new or existing financial plan.

    “Updating and maintaining accurate financial plans requires a lot of time,” said Nicole Schmitt, CFP®, CRPC®, Wealth Management Adviser at LightSquare Wealth Management. “I’m excited to leverage Smart Import to streamline much of this client data management work. The flexibility to upload a range of different file types including meeting transcripts will be a huge lift for our team.”

    Smart Import is the latest RightCapital update to enhance financial plan data entry and maintenance. This announcement comes just months after RightCapital launched Optical Character Recognition (OCR) offerings to automate financial plan transitions from both eMoney and MoneyGuide.

    Effective immediately, Smart Import is available to all RightCapital users at no additional cost. To learn more, visit www.rightcapital.com/book-demo/.

  • Digital Rights Network Launches First Global Platform Connecting Real Estate and Content Creators to Monetize the Digital Layer of the Physical World

    More than $400 Billion in value and over 11 Billion in Square Footage registered as buildings become digital content affiliates driving revenue for property and IP owners.

    LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / March 3, 2026 / Digital Rights Network today announced the launch of its groundbreaking platform designed to connect real estate owners with content creators, media companies, brands, and IP holders to monetize the digital layer of real-world properties. The platform enables property owners to register and manage their Digital Rights while allowing creators to deploy immersive 3D and augmented reality (AR) content on buildings transforming the physical world into a scalable, rights-protected content network.

    As augmented reality, spatial computing, and AI-driven media rapidly move from screens into physical environments, buildings are increasingly being used as canvases for digital advertising, entertainment, and social content, often without the consent of property owners. Digital Rights Network provides the missing infrastructure, creating a transparent marketplace where property owners and content creators can collaborate, transact, and share value.

    Founded by five-time Emmy® Award-winning producer and augmented reality pioneer Neil Mandt, Digital Rights Network operates as both a digital rights platform and a next-generation distribution network for the physical world. Through the platform, television networks, YouTubers, influencers, celebrities, and brands can form partnerships with property owners to display immersive AR content on buildings’ digital layers, reaching consumers directly. Each participating property functions as a digital content affiliate, generating new revenue with no cost, hardware, or operational burden to the owner.

    “Every building has both a physical footprint and a digital presence,” said Neil Mandt, Founder and CEO of Digital Rights Network. “Until now, that digital layer has been unregulated and unclaimed. Digital Rights Network gives ownership, structure, and opportunity to that space, allowing property owners and creators to decide what appears, who profits, and how the real world evolves in an augmented future.”

    The platform utilizes secure, blockchain-based verification to publicly record Digital Rights ownership and manage licensing, compliance, and monetization. Digital Rights Network unites industries including real estate, media, advertising, insurance, data, finance, and government, providing the legal, financial, and technical foundation for digital content in physical space.

    How Digital Rights Network Works:

    • Register Properties: Real estate owners establish Digital Rights for their assets

    • Onboard Creators & IP Owners: Media companies, creators, and brands access verified properties for content partnerships

    • Policy & Compliance: Governments and municipalities define guidelines for acceptable AR content

    • Monetize: Licensed transactions are facilitated and recorded on blockchain through the platform

    • Protect: Proprietary technology supports automated compliance and insurance frameworks

    Early Adoption and Market Traction:

    During its invite-only beta, Digital Rights Network has registered more than $400 Billion value , including participation from leading real estate organizations such as BXP, Colliers, and BOMA/Chicago.

    Registered properties include:

    • BXP assets such as Prudential Tower, Salesforce Tower, Times Square Tower and the GM Building

    • 29 million square feet of Colliers-managed properties

    • Iconic landmarks including the Flatiron Building (NYC), One Chicago, TD Garden (Boston), and major Las Vegas resorts such as Treasure Island

    • Mixed-use and retail destinations managed by WS Development

    “Buildings are the intellectual property of our industry and deserve the same level of protection and monetization as other forms of IP,” said Bryan Koop, Executive Vice President at BXP. “Digital Rights Network provides a framework that finally recognizes that value and generates a new stream of revenue for property owners.”

    “This technology will fundamentally change how people interact with the built environment,” said Steve Weikal, Industry Chair of the Real Estate Transformation Lab at the MIT Center for Real Estate. “Few platforms have the global relevance and scalability of Digital Rights Network; it applies to every building, in every city.”

    As the internet expands beyond screens and into streets, skylines, and shared spaces, Digital Rights Network is establishing the trusted infrastructure that defines ownership, enables creativity, and unlocks new economic opportunities in the augmented world.

    About Digital Rights Network:

    Digital Rights Network is the first global platform and content network built to monetize real-world assets by connecting real estate owners with content creators, media companies, and IP holders. The company enables property owners to register and manage the Digital Rights associated with their buildings defining how those assets are represented, protected, and monetized across augmented reality, digital media, and emerging spatial computing environments.

    More than a real estate technology platform, Digital Rights Network functions as a new kind of distribution network for the physical world. Through the platform, television networks, YouTubers, influencers, brands, and celebrities can partner with property owners to deploy immersive 3D and AR content on buildings reaching consumers directly. Each property becomes a dynamic content affiliate hosting premium digital experiences while generating new, recurring revenue opportunities for both sides.

    By uniting the Digital Property Rights, content creation, and real-world distribution into a single ecosystem, Digital Rights Network establishes a scalable framework for how real estate, media, and culture converge in the augmented era. Since its launch, the platform has registered more than $400 billion in real-world assets, setting the foundation for how real estate, entertainment, and digital expression coexist in the next generation of the internet.
