25.3.2025 09:00:00 CET | ACCESS Newswire | Press release
SINGAPORE, SG / ACCESS Newswire / March 25, 2025 / SK tes, a leading provider of global technology lifecycle services, is delighted to announce that it is now an accredited Living Wage employer in the United Kingdom. This commitment reflects SK tes' dedication to fair compensation and improving the quality of life for its employees.
The UK Living Wage is an hourly rate set independently and updated annually, based on the cost of living. It is distinct from the government's minimum wage, ensuring that employees earn enough to comfortably cover basic living expenses. The scheme is championed by the Living Wage Foundation, which encourages employers to voluntarily adopt higher pay standards.
By joining the Living Wage scheme, SK tes ensures that all its UK-based employees receive wages that better reflect the actual cost of living. This voluntary decision not only benefits the employees but also fosters a more motivated and productive workforce.
SK tes's decision to become a Living Wage employer aligns with its core values of integrity, responsibility, and innovation. By ensuring fair compensation, SK tes not only upholds its ethical standards but also contributes to a stronger, more equitable society.
"We believe that our success is deeply connected to the well-being of our employees," says Gordon Cripps, General Manager of SK tes UK. "By committing to the Living Wage, we are investing in our people, who are the heart of our company. We hope to inspire other businesses to join us in this important movement."

DENVER, CO / ACCESS Newswire / May 20, 2026 / Ten years ago, algorithmic trading was the exclusive territory of investment banks and hedge funds. Today, a retail trader with $100 and a smartphone can access the same class of automated execution that once required a team of quants and millions in infrastructure. That's not an exaggeration. It's the shift that's quietly reshaping stock and forex markets, and AI trading agents are at the center of it. The Old Way Is Breaking Down Manual trading made sense when markets moved slowly enough for humans to keep up. That world no longer exists. Forex markets process over $7 trillion in daily volume. Crypto trades around the clock across hundreds of exchanges. Stock prices react to news in milliseconds. The information moves faster than any individual trader can process, and emotions, such as fear, greed, and hesitation, make an already difficult job even harder. The traders who thrived in this environment were either exceptionally disciplined o

Business Leaders Still Primarily Use AI for Simple Tasks, Study from General Assembly and EZRA Finds19.5.2026 15:00:00 CEST | Press release
Those who have received leadership-specific AI training more likely to use AI more often and more strategically NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / May 19, 2026 / A new survey of more than 500 U.S. and U.K. business leaders found that while they are increasingly confident in their own AI skills, the most common use cases of the technology at the leadership level remain simple tasks like searching for information (69%), summarizing documents (68%) and drafting emails (58%).
