Weber Shandwick and ZENDATA Cybersecurity Partner on Integrated Cyber Crisis Solution Across EMEA
This collaboration reflects a growing demand from boards, CEOs and communications leaders for a unified approach to cyber resilience, which addresses both the technical and reputational dimensions of modern crises. The Weber Shandwick–ZENDATA Cybersecurity alliance will initially launch from regional hubs in London, Geneva and Dubai, with a view to serving clients across Europe, the Middle East and beyond.
'This partnership is a powerful extension of Weber Advisory and a direct response to client needs,' said Alphonse Daudre-Vignier, Executive Vice President, Corporate, Weber Shandwick. 'Managing a cyber crisis has long required more than a technical fix; it's a test of leadership, trust and stakeholder confidence. By combining our strengths with ZENDATA Cybersecurity, we're giving clients the integrated capabilities they need to anticipate, manage and recover from digital threats with greater agility and authority.'
ZENDATA Cybersecurity brings cutting-edge cybersecurity services to the partnership, including proactive threat hunting, dark web monitoring, and rapid incident response. These technical capabilities will be integrated with Weber Advisory's proven crisis communications frameworks and strategic counsel.
Steven Meyer and Isabelle Meyer, Co-CEOs of ZENDATA Cybersecurity, have noted a widespread and dangerous trend: 'Companies consistently overestimate their readiness to face modern cyber threats. With this partnership, we're redefining what preparedness looks like. By fusing our cybersecurity expertise with Weber Shandwick's crisis communications leadership, we're helping organisations not just react, but respond with resilience and control.'
The offering will include joint cyber crisis simulations, scenario planning, real-time incident response and recovery support. The integrated solution builds on Weber Shandwick's recent launch of RADIUS – an operational AI-powered issues and crisis platform developed in collaboration with clients – now enhanced with ZENDATA Cybersecurity's cyber threat intelligence.

Stocks cautious before tariff updates, US inflation data
Equity markets moved little in cautious European and US trading Monday as investors await key US inflation data this week that could offer guidance on rate cuts long sought by President Donald Trump. Reports that chip giants Nvidia and AMD would give Washington a 15-percent cut of the revenue from AI sales to China also bolstered expectations of a new pause on Washington's tariffs against China. "The market seems very relaxed ahead of tomorrow's deadline on US-China trade talks, reflecting the assumption an extension is in the offing and a deal will eventually be reached," said AJ Bell investment director Russ Mould. Also in view is a high-stakes summit between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday in Alaska, which could pave the way for a Ukraine ceasefire and ease tough Western sanctions against Moscow. London's FTSE 100 index edged higher but Paris and Frankfurt closed lower, pulled down in particular by defence stocks as investors calculated the chances of an end to the Ukraine key Wall Street indices came under moderate pressure after the Nasdaq climbed to another record high on Friday, bolstered by solid earnings from tech giants in particular. "Markets are bracing for a surprisingly busy week, with several key events and data releases likely to shape sentiment," notably US inflation, said Jim Reid, managing director at Deutsche Bank. The US consumer price index on Tuesday could provide grist for Trump's campaign against Federal Reserve chief Jerome Powell. Powell has been in the president's crosshairs over his refusal to cut interest rates while awaiting the impact of Trump's tariffs blitz on the economy.

Reboot Expands AI Education in Bahrain with First-of-its-Kind Programs to Equip Youth with Future-Ready Skills
Reboot Coding Institute, the Kingdom's largest tech hub and coding program focused on nurturing future tech talent, is strengthening its commitment to advancing Bahrain's AI capabilities with two new initiatives designed to empower professionals and youth with future-ready skills. Reboot will launch the AI Generalists Program this September, with the goal of training 1,000 individuals per year. The program is designed to equip Bahraini professionals with practical AI skills to enhance productivity, integrate AI tools into business operations, and drive innovation across sectors such as Industry & Manufacturing, Oil & Gas, Education, Start-Up, and Healthcare. The course covers key topics such as AI-assisted automation, prompt engineering, ethical AI use, and hands-on applications in sectors like education, finance, and healthcare. Participants who complete the program will receive Ministry of Labor accredited certificates, gaining a competitive edge in an evolving job market. Complementing this professional focus, Reboot will also lead the AI First Training Program at Youth City 2025, introducing young learners aged 15 and above to coding and generative AI through immersive, project-based workshops. Designed by 01Edu, the program will be the first of its kind to be conducted in the GCC, blending coding fundamentals with AI exploration in a gamified, collaborative learning environment. In just five days, participants will progress from no prior experience to creating functional web projects, developing teamwork and problem-solving skills, and understanding how AI can be used as a creative tool rather than a replacement for human effort. These initiatives build on Reboot's broader AI education framework, which also includes an AI Specialization Track within its flagship two-year coding program. This six-month, project-based deep dive takes learners through the full data science pipeline using Python, covering data analysis, machine learning, natural language processing, and deep learning. Reboot's impact is already evident through its growing community of graduates working as AI Engineers at leading organizations, including Raincode, where they build AI solutions for banks and companies across Europe; KPMG's AI Department, contributing to enterprise and government-level AI and ML solutions; and Al Salam Bank, where they support the bank's internal AI solutions team. 'Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping every sector, and it's crucial that Bahrain's workforce is ready to lead, not just adapt. Through the AI Generalists Program and the AI First workshops at Youth City 2025, we're making AI skills accessible to both professionals and the youth, helping them apply these tools ethically and effectively. Combined with our in-depth AI specialization track, we're creating clear pathways for anyone to move from AI fundamentals to advanced applications that solve real-world challenges.' said Yanal Jallad, Reboot's Managing Director. These initiatives reaffirm Reboot Coding Institute's role as a leading provider of future-focused tech education in Bahrain, bridging the gap between emerging technologies and real-world applications.
