As the first IR Ops Platform, Q4 is eliminating piecemeal IR solutions by utilizing secure AI to create smart workflows that remove tedious administrative tasks that, if mishandled, could significantly impact Investor Relations Officers (“IROs”) and the organization. By leveraging AI, Q4 ensures accurate and efficient completion of these tasks, equipping IR teams with the capacity to focus on their strategic priorities. Gone are the days of disjointed solutions that lack interoperability, each with their tech that leaves IR leaders with incomplete and disconnected data. With a customizable interface based on the world’s largest set of proprietary investor data, everything an IR team needs is now available on a single platform, maximized for efficiency through AI integration.
“Our extensive experience in IR, including our time as a public company, allows us to fully understand the challenges of investor relations and how to overcome them,” said Darrell Heaps, Founder and CEO of Q4. “The IR Ops Platform was purposefully and securely built as an all-in-one solution with AI at the forefront so IR teams can be more efficient, effective, and ultimately help drive premium valuations for their companies.”
The future of IR is here with AI Earnings Co-Pilot, providing AI accelerated earnings preparation by generating tailored first drafts of earnings scripts from past press releases and earnings results without data privacy or security concerns, saving tens of hours of management time during earnings preparation. IROs can unlock new levels of insights from their IR program with the AI Performance Dashboard experience through key peer insights now aggregated in one centralized location, including succinct earnings transcript summaries, news highlights, and stock movements.
Connected data that unifies piecemeal IR solutions provides leading indicators and insights around potential investors, current shareholders, and circling activists so IR teams can take confident action and connect with quality investors. IROs are able to instantly identify recurring participants across their earnings events with unparalleled access to analytics, unveiling new opportunities for engagement and targeted outreach. With simplified earnings lifecycle management, website updates are published 16 times faster than competitors and events boast a 99% platform reliability rate, creating a trusted and intelligent digital destination for investors.
“By creating a single, powerful platform for investor relations, we are increasing the value we provide to our issuer and agency clients, enabling them to successfully implement their IR strategies with unprecedented speed and precision,” remarked Heaps. “We’re proud to be at the forefront of innovation in the IR space and we’re committed to helping IROs thrive.”

Forrester’s 2027 Budget Planning Guides: After A Year Of Caution, Business And Tech Leaders Are Ready To Invest Again15.7.2026 11:00:00 CEST | Press release
While leaders are betting on growth, in the age of AI, spending more is no longer enough According to Forrester’s (Nasdaq: FORR) 2027 Budget Planning Guides, business and technology leaders are approaching 2027 with renewed confidence as they increasingly accept volatility as a permanent feature of the business environment. After a year of more cautious spending, more than 80% of leaders expect their budgets to increase over the next 12 months, with as many as one-quarter anticipating growth of 10% or more. But planning in the age of AI demands more than bigger budgets: Increasing investment without modernizing operating models, strengthening data foundations, and improving AI readiness will only accelerate fragmented data, duplicated work, and technical debt. To realize AI’s full potential, leaders must rethink their strategies and prioritize investments in operational foundations, governance, and experimentation that drive tangible outcomes. This year, optimism is widespread across f
Post-Quantum’s Algorithm - Classic McEliece - Achieves Global ISO Standardization to Protect the World From Quantum Cyber Attack15.7.2026 10:00:00 CEST | Press release
Ultra-secure encryption algorithm added to ISO standard for Asymmetric Ciphers Classic McEliece is first PQC algorithm to achieve global standardization Organisations in 177 ISO member states can now adopt Classic McEliece to remain secure from attack by both classical and quantum computers Governments including Germany and the Netherlands already recommend the highly secure Classic McEliece algorithm due to its unmatched security credentials It’s proven that today’s encryption is vulnerable to attack by a sufficiently mature quantum computer running Shor’s algorithm - a catastrophic event commonly known as Q-Day. Even before such a cryptographically relevant quantum computer emerges it is known that adversaries are stealing encrypted data now, which can be decrypted later - also known as Harvest Now, Decrypt Later (HNDL). Google’s recent use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to optimise Shor’s algorithm reduces the number of physical qubits required to break today’s encryption, therefor
Thredd Joins The Visa Agentic Ready Programme, Bringing Agent Network Readiness To Issuers Across Europe, Starting With Zilch15.7.2026 09:00:00 CEST | Press release
Thredd, the AI-first issuer processing platform, today announced it has joined the Visa Agentic Ready programme, enabling issuers across Europe to participate in agent-initiated payments without rebuilding their payments infrastructure. Consumer payments platform Zilch will be among the first issuers on the platform to enable agent-initiated payments for its cardholders. As a processor and enabler, Thredd sits at the trust layer of the payments ecosystem. By joining the programme, Thredd is ready to support Visa and its clients as the market moves into agentic commerce. Agentic commerce introduces a new type of payment initiator: An AI agent acting on a cardholder's behalf. The core payments principles do not change. Cardholder permission, issuer approval, authentication and fraud monitoring all still apply. What changes is how trust is established and enforced at the point an agent transacts. Taking a Zilch customer as an example, a cardholder might ask an AI agent to find a product w
