Tickets now available for 2024 Air|Water Southern California Porsche Event

Luftgekuhlt

Following its successful debut in 2023 at Luftgekühlt 9 on Mare Island near San Francisco, Air|Water will henceforth become its own event, separated from the groundbreaking Luft series (which will continue to cater exclusively to air-cooled Porsches). The first independent Air|Water event will take place in Costa Mesa, CA and tickets can be purchased from air-water.com. Owners of every kind of street-driven and racing Porsche can register and enter to display their vehicle at the event. Unlike the incredibly successful Luftgekühlt show series, which changes venue for each occasion, Air|Water plans to call Costa Mesa its home for the foreseeable future and has the space to expand its offering into new experiences for the Porsche enthusiast. The venue functions as the perfect backdrop for what will certainly be one of the largest single brand automotive days, with a diverse format catering to some of the most legendary personalities and all walks of vintage and modern Porsche cars. Air|Water is about race and street, vintage and modern, two- and four-door, combustion and electric, sports cars and SUV, air- and water-cooled engines. Attendees can expect a family environment with plenty of food and beverage options, vendors, aftermarket specialists, custom builders and restoration icons. The show’s model mix was previewed at last year’s Northern California event, with everything from the latest 911 GT3 RS to the current Porsche Penske 963 race car, as well as vintage 356s, survivor 914s, transaxle 944s, overland Cayennes, and much more. Some of the most storied race cars from Porsche‘s past will continue to stand out as fan favorites, and this will remain a headline feature of Air|Water. Owners who wish to display their street or race Porsche at Air|Water should register via air-water.com when purchasing admission tickets. Areas within the venue will be curated for specific storylines. As for the tenth edition of Luftgekühlt, dedicated exclusively to air-cooled Porsche models, it will host its tenth Anniversary show later in 2024. As is tradition, the celebration will commemorate another unforgettable experience for visitors. In the meantime, owners of air-cooled models are invited to join the festivities at Air|Water on April 27 in Costa Mesa. Please note, Air|Water is a private, ticketed event and will remain available while supplies last. Brands and companies wishing to exhibit or partner with Air|Water can use the contact form here: air-water.com/pages/event EDITOR’S NOTE Images from Air|Water are available here: dropbox.com/scl/fo/8wnrm3k1gh32sca4vqu0n/h?rlkey=gzy6evqp5x32vrxa2f1h9hau4&dl=0 A video from the first event in San Francisco is available to download and share here: dropbox.com/s/rcjz2j8h185sqnm/AIRWATER_PROMO_16x9_MASTER.mp4?dl=0 ABOUT AIR|WATER From the creators of Luftgekühlt comes the largest single-brand automotive experience to hit Southern California. It embarks on a fresh format that traces Porsche's journey from its inaugural moments to the contemporary masterpieces and most cutting-edge examples of today. For more information, visit air-water.com ABOUT LUFTGEKÜHLT In the Porsche vernacular, Luftgekühlt represents all the air-cooled cars in the manufacturer’s history, from the Pre-A 356 through the 993 model line, which ended in 1998. A true Porsche happening, Luftgekühlt is an experiential car culture event centered around a tightly curated list of historically significant or interesting cars, both street and race. There is no set formula for our events, but we're excited by cool venues, fun people, and creative expression, so you can bet those elements will always be included. The team strives to develop wild ideas that celebrate the passion we have for all things air-cooled, including exciting collaborations with likeminded people and brands.

Taking the Guesswork Out of Finding the Right Therapist with Two Chairs

YourUpdateTV

A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/_XF1w-pVxZs While more Americans are seeking therapy than ever before, many people are matched with the wrong therapist. Two Chairs, the leader in connecting patients to the right therapist, has developed a solution called Matchmaker, an industry-leading technology platform that expertly connects people with the right therapist based on their health history, personal background, and clinical needs. Research shows that a strong client-therapist relationship is the key to great therapy but finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming. Knowing where to start and what makes a great patient-therapist match saves time and increases the likelihood of success. Data shows that the majority of people attend just one therapy session before quitting: ● 1 in 5 patients quit therapy prematurely because they don’t trust their therapist. ● Data finds that a strong patient-therapist relationship is the single best predictor of therapy success. ● Recent research shows that an average 15-20 sessions are needed for 50% of patients to recover. When Two Chairs hires a new therapist, Matchmaker analyzes their strengths, experiences, and skill sets, zeroing in on clinical presentations, diagnoses, focus areas, and demographics. For example, a therapist highly skilled in treating panic disorders may be less adept at addressing postpartum depression. Conversely, a clinician who has limited experience in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy may demonstrate a high level of expertise in utilizing Dialectical Behavior Therapy. This meticulous process ensures that the precise therapist-patient pairing is fine-tuned to match an individual's needs. Two Chair’s Matchmaker process considers over 300 factors, including therapy types (such as dynamic, emotion-focused, cognitive-behavioral, etc.), clinical styles, specific disorder expertise (anxiety, mood, trauma, addiction, eating, personality, etc.), life stages, relationships, identity, and more. Additionally, therapists can stipulate therapeutic approaches they choose not to practice, serving as a safeguard for both patients and clinicians. This comprehensive analysis ensures a tailored and optimal match for individuals seeking therapy. Established with the goal of providing the highest quality outpatient mental health care system in the United States, Two Chairs boasts an impressive patient retention rate, with 90% of their patients continuing to a fourth session—significantly surpassing the national average of 33%. Key to their treatment success is one of the most rigorous and sophisticated clinician-patient matching processes on the market. Two Chairs’ newly launched Matchmaker features further empower clinicians to practice at the top of their license, allowing them to focus on cases they are most skilled in treating. On January 10th, a media tour was conducted featuring Colleen Marshall, Vice President of Clinical Care at Two Chairs and a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist, to discuss the new Matchmaker feature and the importance of measuring outcomes to ensure clients get better faster. With a growing team of 500 licensed clinicians across 90 areas of expertise, Two Chairs has more than 20 million covered lives. Topics that Colleen Marshall discussed during the media tour included: ● Why a strong client-therapist relationship is crucial for effective therapy. ● Why it’s important to prioritize your mental health and destigmatize getting help. ● Reasons why people quit therapy, emphasizing the importance of a good therapist match for a long-term relationship that will lead to better outcomes. ● Why Two Chairs' developed the Matchmaker feature, delving into how it works to improve therapist-patient connections. For more information, visit TwoChairs.com About Two Chairs Two Chairs was founded in 2017 with a mission to build a world where everyone has access to exceptional mental healthcare. We're creating a better experience for both patients and clinicians by starting with an in-depth, research-backed matching process to ensure the ideal patient-therapist fit, offering hybrid care that gives patients and clinicians flexibility between in-person and virtual sessions, and measuring outcomes to ensure patients get better faster.

Consumer Edge Data Reveals Most Verticals Achieved Positive Global Growth in H2 2023

Consumer Edge

Data from Consumer Edge (CE), a provider of global consumer data-driven insights, uncovers winners and losers across the globe in H2 2023. The report reveals which key industries experienced gains across the US, UK and EU. Notably, the most discretionary categories such as luxury and department stores were absent from the list. Online retailers, pet products/services, discount/club stores, ground transportation, health products/services grocery and limited-service restaurants were the only industries that grew sales across all geographies. “In reviewing our global spending data, the CE Insight Center uncovers winners and losers among key industries during the second half of 2023,” said Michael Gunther, Vice President and Head of Insights at Consumer Edge. “These takeaways highlight shifts in consumer behavior and can help companies develop specific themes and targets for 2024.” Online retailers stood out on the upside, as growth accelerated into H2 following a solid performance in the beginning of the year. Luxury: Consumer spending on luxury items declined across all three geographies. As inflation continues to squeeze real incomes and aspirational shoppers pull back on particularly pricey items, luxury became the worst performer out of all the industries in the US and UK and the second worst in the EU (second only to travel). This decreased appetite for direct-to-consumer luxury spilled over into the full-price department store space across the globe. Apparel, Accessories and Footwear posted mixed results, as strength in fast fashion offset softness in the other categories. Consumer spending at fast fashion brands grew in the US, UK and EU, as the challenging macroeconomic environment and strained budgets generated increased interest in more affordable items. Consumer spend growth was negative globally for the higher-ticket women’s apparel/accessories sub-industry. Restaurant spending growth decelerated from H1 to H2, although both full-service and limited-service ended 2023 on a positive note. The average check increased compared to 2022 as food and labor inflation persists. Consumers visited limited-service restaurants more in 2023 than in 2022, but trips declined for their full-service peers, reflecting an environment of strained consumer budgets and trade-down behavior. Home and Garden sales in the US declined in H2 2023 as high mortgage rates and limited supply continued to pressure housing market activity. Sales increased modestly in the UK and EU, although growth softened versus H1 2023, consistent with many other areas of the consumer economy. “Brands can identify impactful shifts in consumer behavior and new emerging trends by reviewing transaction data,” Gunther said. “By leveraging this data, companies can make more informed data-backed business decisions in the year ahead.” Insights Methodology The Consumer Edge Insight Center (CEIC) provides timely insight into global spending trends for consumer industries and individual brands built from transaction data across the US, UK and Continental Europe. About Consumer Edge Consumer Edge (CE) provides data-driven insights focused on the global consumer. Founded in 2009 by CEO Bill Pecoriello, CE is a data and insights as a service (IaaS) company delivering unparalleled views into global consumer spending behavior coupled with deep industry knowledge and analytical expertise. CE solutions provide key stakeholders across the corporate and investment landscapes with best-in-class tools to enable enhanced strategic decision-making.

A Milestone in Web3 Governance: STORM Chosen as Legal Counsel for 1inch DAO

STORM Partners

STORM Partners, a leading Web3 solutions provider based in Geneva, has been voted by an overwhelming majority as the legal counsel for 1inch DAO. The decision sets a historic precedent for decentralized autonomous organizations, as it becomes the first time that a DAO has directly hired legal counselling services and delegated its legal representation before third parties. This decision also represents a bridge between the decentralized ethos of a Web3 DAO and the legal and regulatory stability provided by a centralized legal counsel. With STORM Partners’ extensive track record of Web3 client partnerships, this convergence signifies a seamless union of two realms, forming an ideal synergy aligned with the DAO’s objectives. It also marks a significant stride in addressing the multifaceted legal challenges faced by DAOs in today’s evolving landscape, such as regulatory compliance, contractual agreements, governance frameworks, liability protection, intellectual property rights, and defense against external claims The voting was closed on Tuesday night, with an overwhelming 96.46% approval. This is a one-of-a-kind case, as the Swiss company, as legal counsel, proposed the DAO to be engaged and have detailed the characteristics of their mandate. Thus, 1inch DAO has chosen and conferred upon STORM Partners a power of attorney to legally represent it before third parties. “ We are honoured that the 1inch token community has entrusted us as the legal counsel for their DAO. Our team is dedicated to safeguarding their interests with the utmost commitment. This engagement, being 'fully decentralized,’ marks a significant step forward in the journey towards legal recognition of decentralised organizations. It's not just a milestone for us but a testament to the evolving landscape of legal frameworks adapting to innovative governance models,” said Nicola Massella, director of the Legal and Compliance department at STORM Partners. The importance of legal counsel for 1inch DAO cannot be overstated, given the intricate challenges posed by regulatory risks, liability concerns, contractual ambiguities, governance complexities, and the imperative need for legal recognition as a legitimate entity in multiple jurisdictions. We are thrilled to embark on this new chapter with STORM Partners. This partnership not only represents a significant milestone for 1inch Network but also for the broader decentralized finance space. As we navigate the complex regulatory landscape, this collaboration stands as a testament to our dedication to innovation while upholding our core principles. We are enthusiastically looking forward to the future, confident that this union will bolster the robustness and credibility of DeFi, enabling us to continue to expand the horizons of what’s achievable”, added Jordan Reindl, Governance Lead at 1inch.
