Ullevaal Stadium Among the First in the World to Install FIFA Quality Pro Certified LED Lighting System

The state-of-the-art TLC for LED® lighting system at Ullevaal Stadium has made Norway’s national stadium one of the few in the world with FIFA Quality Pro Certification.
Home to Norway’s national football team, Ullevaal Stadium opened in 1926 and has a rich history of hosting significant sporting and entertainment events. When stadium ownership at the Football Association of Norway (NFF) decided to upgrade the venue’s lighting, they envisioned a system with the most advanced LED technology for the best possible playing, viewing, and entertainment experience.
“Our main priorities for the new lighting system were that it was a modern and future-oriented system that created the perfect playing conditions for our players, is easy to use, and could put on exciting light shows,” said Jørgen Søgård, Chief Technology Officer at Ullevaal Stadium.
While the new system, which was designed by Musco and installed by Asto Elektro, achieved those goals, it also came with another significant benefit – certification through the FIFA Quality Programme for Floodlights.
Developed in collaboration with football associations, lighting industry leaders, and test institutes around the world, the FIFA Quality Programme for Floodlights certifies that a lighting system meets elevated, specified standards of quality and performance.
As the first-ever FIFA Preferred Provider for Floodlight Systems, Musco custom designed the TLC for LED® system at Ullevaal to achieve those performance standards, making it one of just a small handful of stadiums worldwide with the designation.
“Ullevaal Stadium holds a special place in the hearts of Norwegians, and that was something the NFF and everyone involved in the project wanted to honour,” said Chris Limpach, Musco’s Director of Europe, Middle East, and Africa Business. “The high standards they set along with the FIFA designation just demonstrate their commitment to providing the best possible stadium experience. It was an exceptional project to be a part of.”

Logical Intelligence Achieves 76 Percent on Putnam Benchmark, Highlighting Shift Beyond Large Language Models to Language-free, Mathematically Grounded Models2.12.2025 15:15:00 CET | Press release
Over the last decade, artificial intelligence (AI) has been largely built around large language models (LLMs). These systems are based on a language and guess words in a chain in the form of tokens. As a result, they frequently hallucinate and require vast compute and power infrastructure to solve tasks. The moment systems like public safety, national infrastructure, and industrial automation need logic, LLMs break and introduce safety risks. Token-free language independent models represent a new direction for AI. They do not predict words. They search for correct solutions and require less compute. Logical Intelligence is the first company building exclusively around mathematically derived, non autoregressive EBM (Energy Based Model) reasoning. Today, Logical Intelligence announced that its Aleph tool achieved a 76 percent score on the Putnam Benchmark, one of the most demanding mathematical reasoning tests in artificial intelligence. The benchmark measures a model’s ability to solve

Invisible IT Emerges as Workplace Transformation Evolves, Lenovo Research Finds2.12.2025 15:00:00 CET | Press release
Four out of five IT leaders say their systems can’t keep up and are turning to AI-powered automation to make IT seamless, predictive, and proactive. The next step in workplace transformation is invisible technology that fades into the background so that support is automated and seamless, according to a Lenovo global survey of IT leaders released today. Most employees only notice IT when it slows them down and interrupts processes. Invisible IT is the opposite. It means technology that anticipates needs, prevents issues before they happen, and personalizes support automatically. Achieving Invisible IT, the newest report in Lenovo’s ongoing Work Reborn series, explores how AI and automation are redefining the digital workplace and employee experience. Of the IT leaders who participated, 79% aspire to deliver seamless, proactive support that minimizes disruption for employees, but only 21% have achieved predictive issue resolution. The results underscore an urgent need for organizations t
Wasabi Launches Covert Copy, a Completely Invisible and Indestructible Copy of Data for a Higher Level of Cloud Storage Security2.12.2025 15:00:00 CET | Press release
Key takeaways:A patent pending innovation in data protection that affords the best protection yet from ransomwareEnables account managers to create a hidden, immutable copy of data that is invisible to anyone inside the corporate networkSupports wide range of compliance requirements across all industries Wasabi Technologies, the hot cloud storage company, has expanded its cyber resilient cloud storage capabilities with Covert Copy, a patent pending, advanced ransomware-resistant storage solution that allows users to create a locked, hidden copy of storage buckets to ensure critical data remains untouchable, even in the event of a cyberattack. The selected data is logically air gapped and cannot be seen, accessed, modified or deleted, without multi-user authentication approval, protecting it from any type of malicious attack. Covert Copy strengthens and simplifies traditional air gap strategies by creating a copy of data that is not only isolated, but unable to be detected at all. As th
Incode Launches Deepsight, the World’s Most Accurate Deepfake Defense2.12.2025 15:00:00 CET | Press release
Validated by Purdue University, this breakthrough AI system protects enterprises from deepfakes, synthetic identities, and AI-generated fraud at scale Incode Technologies, the global leader in identity security and fraud prevention, today announced the launch of Deepsight, a breakthrough AI defense that detects and blocks deepfakes, injected virtual cameras, and synthetic identity attacks with unmatched accuracy. When Identity Can Be Faked, Everything Breaks As AI systems increasingly interact and transact autonomously, the ability to instantaneously separate real people from AI-generated fakes becomes critical. Deepsight’s multi-modal AI analyzes video, motion, and depth data to expose inconsistencies that synthetic media cannot reproduce, all in under 100 milliseconds and without adding friction. “Deepfakes have evolved beyond novelty. They are now a major fraud weapon,” said Ricardo Amper, Founder and CEO of Incode. “When identity can be faked, everything breaks. Deepsight restores
