LAWRENCE, Kan.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- NetXD, the financial-technology company powering banks and institutions across 10 countries, is excited to announce its full-stack infrastructure bridging traditional (TradFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi). The platform unifies its programmable ledger, global payments hub including stablecoins with a proof of reserve, bank-grade HD wallet (for self-custody), Large Action Model (LAM) and an AI engine allowing institutions to launch and manage tokenized products, move money safely, and streamline middle- and back-office workflows without replacing legacy cores.
'NetXD makes innovation a profit engine as it should be,' said Suresh Ramamurthi, Chairman of NetXD. 'By freeing institutions to deliver what customers want, when they want it, without messy integrations or the associated runaway costs.'

The release follows the Senate's passage of the bipartisan GENIUS Act, the first U.S. regulatory framework for stablecoins, underscoring the market's need for fully collateralized, compliance-ready digital-asset infrastructure.
Key benefits delivered to financial institutions:
XD Ledger: Enterprise-grade, programmable, immutable ledger with smart contract support that runs as a sidecar core alongside existing infrastructure. Institutions can tokenize deposits and other digital assets, settle transactions in real time across both fiat and stablecoin rails and enforce Zero Trust, auditable governance; all without ripping out legacy systems.
XD Payments: A unified payments API that lets financial institutions move money through every major rail (ACH, Wires, RTP®, FedNow®, Visa Direct, Visa DPS Forward, Visa B2B Connect, and blockchain networks including stablecoins). Instead of juggling separate integrations and settlement rules, institutions route all payment types through one cloud-native platform with real-time tracking, automated compliance checks, and built-in FX.
XD AI: Transform institutional operations by turning complex contracts and policies into executable workflows powered by our Large Action Model (LAM). We have expanded the TradFi capabilities to execute transactions across multiple blockchains and dApps including wallet creation, fund movement, payment execution and smart contract generation. Running on NetXD's programmable ledger, XD AI eliminates manual middle- and back-office work, enabling Zero Ops automation. From encoding vendor agreements as smart contracts to settling payables in fiat or stablecoins with full audit trails, XD AI delivers cost savings, speed, and compliance at scale.
Enterprise HD Wallet Suite: Self-custodial wallet secured by Zero Trust architecture and hierarchical-deterministic key management to access multiple chains and tokens including stablecoins. NetXD's HD Wallet is further secured by asymmetric cryptography, enterprise-grade real time risk controls and 360 degree review of all transactions and protected by killswitches.
'NetXD makes innovation a profit engine as it should be,' said Suresh Ramamurthi, Chairman of NetXD. 'By freeing institutions to deliver what customers want, when they want it, without messy integrations or the associated runaway costs.'

General Mills' Progresso Soup Drops Campaign Wins Gold and Silver Lions at Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity

CANNES, France & MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Progresso TM Soup Drops – the first ever 'soup you can suck on' – continued to dominate the cold and flu conversation this week, earning a Gold Lion for PR and Silver Lion for Brand Experience & Activation at the 2025 Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. While most folks flock to the cough drop aisle at the first sign of a cold, this past January, Progresso said, 'Hold my spoon!' and moved out of the soup aisle to offer the classic, hearty flavor of Progresso Chicken Noodle Soup in a SOUPrising new format. The savory, hard candy drops were available only during National Soup Month – the height of cold and flu season – to remind consumers of the comfort found in a bowl of Progresso Soup. And fans loved the creative approach, selling out the limited-edition drops in just minutes and generating more than two weeks of conversation across social media and from morning shows to late night talk shows. 'At General Mills, we're focused on building iconic brands with bold, culturally relevant ideas,' said Doug Martin, chief marketing officer for General Mills. 'Progresso Soup Drops were the spark of joy fans were looking for during cold and flu season, and while their response certainly showed we got it right, to be recognized among the top 1% of creative campaigns globally is an incredible honor.' In addition to the Gold and Silver Lions, Progresso Soup Drops was shortlisted across the Creative Strategy, Direct, PR and Brand Experience & Activation categories. In partnership with an agency roster led by Edelman, alongside Knechtel Inc., Yaniv Consulting, The Social Lights and Promotion Management Center across product development, paid influencer and website development, Soup Drops and Progresso dominated sick season this year. The cheeky drops were conversation-drivers and attention-grabbers that served as an entry point to the Progresso Soup portfolio, driving an increase in top-of-mind awareness, brand association and ultimately sales for the brand. About General Mills General Mills makes food the world loves. The company is guided by its Accelerate strategy to boldly build its brands, relentlessly innovate, unleash its scale and stand for good. Its portfolio of beloved brands includes household names like Cheerios, Nature Valley, Blue Buffalo, Häagen-Dazs, Old El Paso, Pillsbury, Betty Crocker, Yoplait, Totino's, Annie's, Wanchai Ferry, Yoki and more.

Fifth Third Announces Three-Year, $20M Investment in North Nashville

CINCINNATI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Fifth Third (NASDAQ: FITB) and Nashville leaders announced today that North Nashville will join the Fifth Third Neighborhood Program, bringing an influx of $20 million over three years to help revitalize the community. 'Fifth Third could not be more excited to bring our innovative Neighborhood Program to North Nashville,' said Kala Gibson, chief corporate responsibility officer for Fifth Third. 'We piloted our place-based economic development program back in 2019 and rolled it out in nine neighborhoods across our footprint in 2021. We have invested nearly $255 million since that time and witnessed generational, transformative change. We're thrilled about the opportunity to apply what we've learned and help North Nashville realize similar outcomes and impact.' In partnership with Affordable Housing Resources, Inc., Pathway Lending and United Way of Greater Nashville, Fifth Third and lead technical assistance partner Enterprise Community Partners will help community members implement their economic mobility roadmap that will help advance economic mobility and financial inclusion for the residents and businesses of North Nashville. To support this work, Fifth Third is pledging a $20 million investment in traditional financial and philanthropic capital in North Nashville over the next three years, including $1 million each to Affordable Housing Resources and the United Way from the Fifth Third Foundation. 'As a long-time resident of North Nashville I welcome this investment in our neighborhoods,' said Nashville Mayor Freddie O'Connell. 'We've been trying to shift how we invest in North Nashville. Recently, we've taken a special budgeting process and directed hundreds of thousands of dollars into four North Nashville Council districts. Then, we put $1 million directly into a multi-year effort anchored at Matthew Walker Comprehensive Health Center focused on lowering blood pressure. We've started to lower electric bills through a new insulation partnership with NES. And at least $7 million in federal funding to help North Nashville continue to recover from the long-term impacts of the 2020 tornado. 'Now we will amplify those investments with a $20 million commitment from Fifth Third that will result in community development through housing preservation, small business assistance, and vacant lot activation. Community members will see the results starting later this year,' Mayor O'Connell said. Nashville's economic mobility roadmap includes several key focus areas: growing housing and homeownership, such as by developing and preserving affordable housing; investing in small businesses and community wealth-building, such as by expanding access to capital and business planning; investing in people-based programs and services, such as by supporting education-to-career pathways; and investing in infrastructure and environmental priorities, such as by addressing tornado damage and highway impacts. 'I am thrilled that North Nashville has been selected for Fifth Third's Neighborhood Program,' said David Briggs, Tennessee region president for Fifth Third Bank. 'The North Nashville community embodies both the rich history of this city and the promise and challenges of its future. This investment of financial and intellectual capital illustrates Fifth Third's commitment to ensuring that all the members of the North Nashville community can share in its growth and truly make their lives a Fifth Third Better.' Fifth Third prioritizes broadening financial access and neighborhood revitalization through its Neighborhood Program, a community development initiative launched in 2021 which creates and implements innovative place-based strategies to effect positive change in historically disinvested neighborhoods across the Bank's 11-state consumer bank footprint. The program is pioneering a new place-based approach to community development by partnering with a lead partner organization, Enterprise Community Partners, and local organizations to build ecosystems that drive real change through both financial and social investments. This collective ecosystem approach is focused on identifying solutions to key challenges in partnership with the community, with the goal of creating lasting, transformative change. The place-based concept was piloted in 2019 in Detroit's Gratiot & Seven Mile neighborhood. Two years later, the program expanded into the Neighborhood Program, adding nine additional neighborhoods in seven states. Through the Neighborhood Program, Fifth Third has directly invested nearly $255 million across the nine neighborhoods. That investment helped catalyze over $200 million in additional investment. The result: $455 million in total Fifth Third-driven investments and tangible community impact, including: 584 new rental homes developed to increase the supply of affordable rental housing; 437 existing homes preserved; 1,932 homeowners assisted through purchase assistance, classes, repairs, and other programs; 926 small businesses supported through technical assistance and other programs; 70 key positions filled to help community organizations build capacity; $25 million in philanthropic investment by Fifth Third.
