Nike sues Edison Chen for breach of contract
The company is seeking USD 126,615 from Edison and his company Juice Los Angeles, stating that they owe Nike that amount of money for goods and services that they provided to the company.
It is noted that the amount was originally stated as USD 126,615,000, but was later amended as it was due to a clerical error.
The lawsuit came after Edison announced his streetwear brand Clot's collaboration with Nike's rival, Adidas. However, it is noted that the new collaboration has nothing to do with Nike's filing of the lawsuit.
It is noted that Edison's brand announced their cooperation with Adidas at Clot's spring 2024 show, stating that their new collection will be called Adidas Originals by Edison Chen.
Both parties have made no comments regarding the said lawsuit.

Uber Freight CEO Lior Ron Leaves $5.1B Unit For Waabi's AI-First Driverless Trucks: 'Most Positioned To Lead The Transformation'
Uber Freight founder and CEO Lior Ron is leaving the top job to become chief operating officer at self-driving truck startup Waabi, Bloomberg reports. Ron, who built Uber's (NYSE:UBER) freight and logistics unit into a $5.1 billion business, will lead Waabi as it works to launch fully driverless trucks in Texas before the end of this year. According to TechCrunch, Ron's move comes as autonomous freight technology nears commercial viability, and Waabi prepares to scale operations against deep-pocketed rivals like Aurora, which has already launched the first driverless trucking route in the U.S. Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) veteran Rebecca Tinucci, who TechCrunch says spent six years building the automaker's charging network, will replace Ron as head of Uber Freight after Tesla cut its charging staff last year. Ron will remain chair of Uber Freight while taking on his new role at Waabi, Bloomberg reports.

Ron and Raquel Urtasun Reunite to Drive AI-First Autonomy to Market Waabi founder and CEO Raquel Urtasun told TechCrunch that Ron will lead go-to-market strategy, expand key partnerships, and bring Waabi from its current development stage to "commercialization at scale." She pointed to his track record of scaling Uber Freight from inception to a multibillion-dollar revenue operation as proof that he can guide Waabi through its next phase. Ron and Urtasun share a history in the sector, TechCrunch says. Ron co-founded self-driving truck company Otto, which Uber acquired in 2016, while Urtasun served as Uber's chief scientist for self-driving research between 2017 and 2021. Ron said his decision to join Waabi was driven by timing and the scale of opportunity in autonomy, telling TechCrunch, "If the most impactful thing to do in the next decade is autonomy, and if the timing is right, then for me it's really about joining forces with who I think is most positioned to lead the transformation." Ron described the career shift as "like going back to the roots" in an interview with Bloomberg.

You can Inside Waabi's $287.7M AI-First Platform and Virtual Test World Founded in 2021, Waabi has raised $287.7 million, including a $200 million Series B in 2024 led by prominent investors, such as Uber and Khosla Ventures. Urtasun told TechCrunch the company's "AI-first" approach allows it to develop and validate self-driving systems with fewer resources and in less time than competitors. Central to Waabi's development is Waabi World, a closed-loop simulator that trains and tests its self-driving software by generating real-time scenarios, including accidents and construction zones, without physical risk. According to TechCrunch, earlier this year, Waabi declared its system "feature complete," meaning it had all the necessary capabilities to operate without a human driver and was now focusing on performance improvements and validation ahead of its driverless launch. The company plans to begin operations in Texas, which TechCrunch says has become a hub for autonomous freight testing and deployment, but has not disclosed the specific routes or launch partners. Waabi is collaborating with Volvo Autonomous Solutions to build custom autonomous trucks for its Lior Ron Says Freight Operators 'Could Not Wait' For Waabi's Depot-To-Door Driverless Trucks Ron told TechCrunch that demand from freight operators is strong, noting that chief supply chain officers and major carriers he met at Uber Freight "could not wait" for self-driving trucks. He added that Waabi's trucks will be able to drive directly to customer depots, avoiding the need for costly transfer terminals, and will deliver a "commercial-ready solution" for operators looking to integrate autonomy quickly. With Aurora's public market funding and head start on commercial routes, TechCrunch says that Waabi's leadership is betting that its leaner, AI-driven approach will help it compete and scale faster in the race to lead autonomous freight in the U.S. Read Next: In a $34 Trillion Debt Era, The Right AI Could Be Your Financial Advantage — Image: Shutterstock Up Next: Transform your trading with Benzinga Edge's one-of-a-kind market trade ideas and tools.

Cardinals place outfielder Victor Scott II on 10-day IL with left ankle sprain
ST. LOUIS (AP) — The St. Louis Cardinals placed outfielder Victor Scott II on the 10-day injured list before Sunday's series finale against the New York Yankees. Scott had an MRI and it revealed he has a left ankle sprain. He collided with the outfield wall in pursuit of Aaron Judge's home run in the third inning of Saturday's game, a 12-8 Yankees victory. Outfielder Nathan Church and left-handed pitcher Anthony Veneziano have been selected from Triple-A Memphis. Right-handed pitcher Roddery Muñoz was optioned to Memphis. Church will start in center and hit ninth. Scott was hurt when he was trying to rob Judge of a home run. Scott almost brought back the Yankees slugger's first career home run against the Cardinals after going high above the center-field wall with his glove. He landed awkwardly on his left ankle. Scott has played in 116 games this season. He is hitting .223 with five home runs and 35 RBIs. Scott has 31 stolen bases. Two starters also remain out of the St. Louis lineup — first baseman Willson Contreras (right foot contusion) and second baseman Brendan Donovan (left foot/groin soreness). Contreras was hit by a pitch on the foot Tuesday and hasn't played since. Alec Burleson has started each of St. Louis' four games at first base since Contreras has been sidelined. Donovan has been dealing with leg and foot injuries since being removed from a game against Toronto on June 10 with a sprained capsule in his left big toe. He has not played in the series against the Yankees. ___ AP MLB:
