Larry Peck, Former VP at Autodesk, Joins Riffyn as Vice President of Engineering

Riffyn, a global provider of cloud software for scientific process design and data analytics, announced today that Larry Peck has joined the company’s executive team as Vice President of Engineering. Larry will lead the expansion of Riffyn’s engineering team and the development and delivery of new product capabilities as Riffyn fulfills its vision for computer-aided design and machine learning in the sciences.

“I am profoundly delighted to have Larry join the Riffyn leadership team,” said Tim Gardner, Founder/CEO of Riffyn. “With his decades of experience in Computer Aided Design software at Autodesk, Larry is perfectly suited to advancing the development of Riffyn’s unique technology for “scientific blueprints”, our patented computer-aided-design approach to science that delivers clean, contextualized, and connected data. Larry brings a track record of exceptional product, engineering and organizational achievements that will serve us well as he grows the team and engineering capability.”

Larry has spent over 20 years leading global software teams of 12 to 1200 engineers in the US, Asia and Europe in the successful development and delivery of software products focused on design, manufacture, collaboration, and lifecycle management. He oversaw all of Autodesk’s software development in Shanghai and Singapore, delivering significant gains in operational efficiency. Larry repeatedly delivered software that achieved double-digit percentage increases in year-over-year revenue for the Manufacturing digital design market. He also effectively integrated global teams distributed at sites in Asia, Europe and the US.

Mr. Peck noted, “I have spent much of my career at Autodesk developing structured design and data capture tools for mechanical industries — tools that have conferred enormous benefits to those industries, but are largely missing in the life sciences. I’m thrilled to join Riffyn and help realize the company’s vision for transformative digital design tools in the life science industries.”

Forrester Reveals The Top 10 Highest-Performing Brands In Its 2026 Global Total Experience Score Rankings​ At Its CX Events9.6.2026 09:30:00 CEST | Press release

Introduced last year, the Total Experience Score evaluates the combined influence of brand and customer experience on overall brand perception among both noncustomers and customers According to Forrester’s (Nasdaq: FORR) 2026 global Total Experience Score rankings of 375 brands evaluated across Asia Pacific, Europe, and North America in 2025 and 2026, 41% improved their scores while only 3% declined. A compelling total experience — calculated by combining Forrester’s Customer Experience Index (CX Index™), Brand Experience Index (BX Index™), and, for the first time, the new Employee Experience Index (EX Index™) into a unified view of performance — can drive outsized growth for brands. While brand experience and customer experience can each drive revenue independently, the impact multiplies when they are orchestrated together as a unified total experience. In the US, for example, companies delivering a strong total experience see significantly higher returns from retention and enrichment

IQM Announces Novel Quantum Error Correction Approach Toward Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computing9.6.2026 09:00:00 CEST | Press release

New approach delivers cutting edge performance, while significantly reducing hardware complexity IQM Quantum Computers, the global leader in superconducting quantum computers, has developed a novel quantum error-correcting code that achieves up to three orders of magnitude lower logical error rates than the surface code, also requiring up to eight times fewer physical qubits. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260609533201/en/ IQM´s breakthrough technology, called barbell codes. Unlike many alternative high-performance quantum error-correction approaches, the new code also maintains a comparatively low hardware complexity, marking a significant advancement toward scalable fault-tolerant quantum computing. Quantum error correction remains one of the defining challenges in the race toward practical quantum computing. Errors introduced by noise must be corrected faster than they accumulate, a requirement that previo

Estonia Raises the Bar for Secure Digital Identity in Europe With New eID Cards Developed With Thales9.6.2026 09:00:00 CEST | Press release

The Estonian Police and Border Guard Board has begun the issuance of the country’s new electronic identity (eID) cards, marking a major milestone in the ongoing modernisation of Estonia’s renowned digital identity programme.

ISO/TC 251 Recognizes Ampowr as the Only BESS Operator With a Fully Integrated ISO Stack9.6.2026 09:00:00 CEST | Press release

ISO/TC 251 and NEN, the Netherlands national standards body, profile Ampowr alongside Rijkswaterstaat, the US Army Corps of Engineers, Novo Nordisk and Veolia after an in-depth methodology interview with Executive Director Andrew Elwell. ISO/TC 251, the international technical committee that authors the ISO 55000 family of asset management standards, has published a case study profiling Ampowr's integrated certification methodology. Authored by NEN, the Dutch national standards body, the study is now publicly available in the ISO/TC 251 case studies library alongside profiles of Rijkswaterstaat, the US Army Corps of Engineers, Novo Nordisk, and Veolia. ISO/TC 251 approached Ampowr directly. NEN subsequently conducted an in-depth interview with Executive Director Andrew Elwell, examining how Ampowr operates its five certifications (ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO 27001 and ISO 55001), as a single integrated system rather than separate compliance silos.
