Milad Mahanrad Wins Global Gold Medal and Special Award for Innovation
The Global Inventors Competition, held under the banner of the E-NNOVATE 2025 International Innovation Expo, is recognized as one of the world's most prestigious events in the field of innovation and invention. This year's edition took place from June 10 to 12, 2025 in Kraków, Poland.
Organized by IBS GLOBAL, and supported by institutions such as the Polish Ministry of Development and Technology, Jagiellonian University, the Polish Patent Office, and multiple international innovation associations, the event aimed to highlight cutting-edge technological achievements and promote global scientific and commercial collaboration.
More than 530 inventions from 23 countries, including the United Kingdom, France, Germany, China, Japan, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, India, Qatar, Malaysia, the Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam, Taiwan, Iran, and Poland, were showcased at the event.
Among the standout participants was Milad Mahan Rad, who presented his invention titled:'A Real-Time Feedback System for Evaluating Musical Works Using Audio Signal Processing and Machine Learning Models.'
He was awarded both the Gold Medal of the competition and the Special Award from the United Kingdom.
This invention, situated at the intersection of music technology and artificial intelligence, captured the attention of the jury and participants for its innovative approach and practical applications in the creative industries.

Wall Street futures steady ahead of Fed's interest rate verdict
(Reuters) -U.S. stock index futures edged higher on Wednesday ahead of the Federal Reserve's monetary policy decision, while the Israel-Iran conflict entered its sixth day, with new missile strikes launched from both sides. A Federal Reserve monetary policy decision is due at 02:00 p.m. ET where policymakers are widely expected to leave interest rates unchanged at the 4.25%-4.5% range. Investors will focus on Fed Chair Jerome Powell's comments to gauge how he plans to combat the risk of rising prices, which remain a dominant concern for the central bank. The central bank is expected to balance the risk of slowing growth and higher inflation. "A lot has happened since their last meeting in early May ... given that uncertainty and the potential for fresh inflationary spikes, they're widely expected to keep rates on hold again," Jim Reid, global head of macro and thematic research at Deutsche Bank, said in a note. Money market moves show traders are pricing in about 46 basis points of rate cuts by the end of 2025, with a 56% chance of a 25-bps rate cut in September, according to CME Group's FedWatch tool. With conflict escalating in the oil-rich Middle East, markets have been on edge over the possibility of a more direct U.S. military involvement in the Israel-Iran aerial war. A source familiar with internal discussions said U.S. President Donald Trump and his team were considering a number of options, which included joining Israel in strikes against Iranian nuclear sites. At 05:37 a.m. ET, Dow E-minis were up 89 points, or 0.21%, S&P 500 E-minis were up 16.5 points, or 0.28%. Nasdaq 100 E-minis were up 75.5 points, or 0.35%. Initial jobless claims data is scheduled at 08:30 a.m. ET. Among premarket movers, shares of Tesla rose nearly 1%. Shares of stablecoin issuer Circle Internet rose 3.1% after the U.S. Senate passed a bill to create a regulatory framework for dollar-pegged cryptocurrency tokens known as stablecoins.

We're Members of the Israeli Knesset. Here's Our Message to Iranians
Advocates for ideas and draws conclusions based on the interpretation of facts and data. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. To the proud people of Iran: This is not a message to your rulers. It's a message to you—the heirs of Cyrus the Great, of Ferdowsi, Avicenna, and Rumi. For centuries, Iranian civilization was one of the most admired in the world. Your science, art, and literature helped shape humanity's understanding of beauty and wisdom. Your gardens inspired the world. Your poetry spoke of mercy, truth, and the soul. But that light has been dimmed by a regime that fears freedom. A regime that crushes dissent, bans art, jails women, and spends your national treasure on weapons, militias, and war. This week, Israel acted—not to punish Iran, but to stop the machinery of destruction that threatens the region and the world. We struck facilities and commanders tied to the regime's nuclear and terror infrastructure. These strikes were precise and limited—aimed not at the Iranian people, but at the violent ideology that endangers them too. We acted because no sovereign nation can accept the threat of annihilation. But we also acted because we believe in a different future—one we know is possible. Our two peoples have known friendship before. There was a time—not so long ago—when Israel and Iran were close partners, exchanging knowledge, trade, and good will. That friendship was not a fluke. It was a reflection of two ancient civilizations that, when working together, can bring tremendous good to the region and to the world. That potential still exists. It is only blocked by the extremist regime that came to power and tore that friendship apart. A new Middle East is taking shape before our eyes. Countries that once saw each other as enemies are working together—through the Abraham Accords—to build a region based on cooperation and shared prosperity. Israeli and Emirati entrepreneurs develop startups together. Bahraini and Moroccan students study at Israeli universities. Regional air defense is being built across borders. This isn't some distant dream—it's happening now. And a free Iran could be part of it. Israeli flags stand amid rubble and destruction in a residential area of Rishon LeZion, Israel on June 14, 2025. Israeli flags stand amid rubble and destruction in a residential area of Rishon LeZion, Israel on June 14, 2025. Khadija Toufik / Middle East ImagesWe're not naïve. We know the regime will try to crush hope. But we also know that hope is already alive. We saw it in 2009's Green Movement, in 2019's street protests, in the women-led resistance of 2022. We've seen you risk everything to sing in your language, to dance in your cities, to choose how you live and who you worship. We write to you not as rivals, but as partners in a shared struggle—against tyranny, against extremism, against the silence that fear imposes. We, too, come from a people who faced darkness. Our own state was born from suffering, but we built a democracy. We know what it means to be isolated, to be targeted, and to rise anyway. Israel is ready to work with any nation that seeks peace. And one day, we believe, that can include a free Iran—one that no longer exports weapons and terror, but science, poetry, medicine, and innovation. Imagine Iranian engineers working side by side with Israeli ones on clean energy. Imagine Iranian music echoing through regional festivals. Imagine Tehran's universities as centers of knowledge, not repression. This isn't a fantasy. It's a choice. And only you can make it. No foreign army can bring freedom. But people can. When enough citizens say, "no more." When they say, "our identity will not be defined by fear." When they say, "our children deserve a life of dignity, not propaganda." The world is watching. This is your moment—to rise on your own terms and reclaim the story of your country. History has not forgotten the beauty and greatness of Iran. And neither have we. We stand with you, coalition and opposition in Israel together—not above you, not beyond you, but beside you.
