ONCORE INNOVATIONS TO PRESENT AT HOULIHAN LOKEY’S ONE GLOBAL CONFERENCE

Buffalo, NY  – OnCore Innovations, creators of the Genius™ Ball — the world’s first smart golf ball delivering real-time putting and short game data — today announced its participation in the upcoming ONE Houlihan Lokey Global Conference, taking place May 13–15, 2025, at the New York Marriott Marquis.

Buffalo, NY  OnCore Innovations, creators of the Genius™ Ball — the world’s first smart golf ball delivering real-time putting and short game data — today announced its participation in the upcoming ONE Houlihan Lokey Global Conference, taking place May 13–15, 2025, at the New York Marriott Marquis.

Keith Blakely, CEO of OnCore Innovations, will represent the company as a featured panelist on “Down the Fairway: Insights in the Golf Market,” part of the Consumer Track on May 14. The panel will be moderated by Nathan Pund of Houlihan Lokey and will include leaders from Foray Golf, Imperial, Rapsodo, and TRUE linkswear.

Now in its largest-ever format, the ONE Global Conference is expected to host over 4,800 participants, representing 370 companies across 160+ sectors — making it one of the most comprehensive investment banking conferences of the year. OnCore’s inclusion signals growing interest in the convergence of sports, performance analytics, and connected product ecosystems.

“We’re honored to join this world-class event alongside some of the most forward-thinking brands in golf,” said Blakely. “As technology transforms every corner of sports, Genius is pioneering a new data category in putting and short game play — giving players and coaches unprecedented insight from the ball itself.”

The Genius Ball captures high-frequency motion data (including speed, direction, launch angle, skid, and more) directly from the moment of putter impact. Launching in 2025, it is poised to redefine how golfers train, fit equipment, and improve performance in their short games — where over half of strokes in a round are played.

While Genius is launching in golf, its underlying sensor platform and motion analytics engine have applications across a wide range of ball sports, including baseball, cricket, and lacrosse. By embedding intelligence directly into the ball, OnCore aims to unlock a new layer of data for athletes and coaches—capturing insights that were previously invisible and enabling smarter training, injury prevention, and performance enhancement in sports where precision and motion mechanics matter.

Finally, by starting with golf, OnCore has tackled the most demanding application first — where the ball is the smallest, the required data is extremely precise, and the g-forces from golf club impacts are among the highest in sports. This engineering challenge has enabled OnCore to develop a ruggedized, miniaturized platform that can be seamlessly adapted for larger ball, lower-impact sports.

About OnCore Innovations

OnCore Innovations is a sports technology company redefining performance training through sensor-enabled equipment and intelligent software. Its flagship product, the Genius Ball, is the first smart golf ball designed to capture putting and short game stroke data directly from the ball. For more information, visit www.geniusball.golf.

California jumps to world’s No. 4 economy. Can that last? – East Bay Times

California in 2024 claimed the world’s fourth-largest economy, by some curious math. Whether the state remains at this high, bragging-rights perch is very much in doubt.

California in 2024 claimed the world’s fourth-largest economy, by some curious math.

Whether the state remains at this high, bragging-rights perch is very much in doubt.

California businesses produced $4.1 trillion worth of goods and services in 2024, according to the latest gross domestic product estimates from the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis. GDP is a broad measurement of economic production and is useful for comparisons of business heft.

When California’s economy is put on a global scale, only three nations were more productive last year, according to GDP stats from biannual reports from the International Monetary Fund.

The U.S. is easily No. 1 with $29 trillion, and it would still be tops without California. Next is China at $18.8 trillion. And there’s Germany at $4.66 trillion.

The “big news” is that California managed to bump up from its long-standing No. 5 ranking on this global totem pole by edging past Japan, which produced $4.03 trillion in GDP last year.

California is an economic powerhouse because its 18-million-people-strong workforce isn’t just the nation’s largest, it produces highly valued products. For all the talk of California’s “anti-business” policies, no state comes close to the Golden State in business output.

Texas is the nation’s No. 2 in GDP at $2.7 trillion. My trusty spreadsheet, using California’s bragging-rights calculations, found Texas ranks as the world’s No. 8 economy, on par with Italy.

New York’s $2.3 trillion GDP is No. 9 globally. That’s Canada’s ballpark. Florida, at $1.7 trillion, is No. 16, or roughly the size of Indonesia. And Illinois, at $1.1 trillion, is No. 19, comparable with Saudi Arabia.

Big headaches

Think about the challenges California’s lofty global ranking economy faces.

Start with the strength of the U.S. dollar. Its rise has been a relative economic norm for over a decade.

These economic rankings are made possible by converting the worldwide business output into its top currency, the American one. A strong U.S. dollar makes domestic output pricier to our global trading partners. It also devalues foreign production.

So ponder how currency gyrations affected the calculations of Japanese growth.

Throughout 2024, the Japanese yen lost 11% of its value compared with the U.S. dollar. That’s a key reason why Japan’s GDP growth was 2.9% for the year in yen, but only 0.1% in dollars.

That story is different today. In 2025’s first four months, the two currencies flip-flopped. The yen has appreciated 10% against the dollar as currency traders weigh trade wars started by the Trump administration and what they will do to the world’s business production.

It’s possible that California would lose the No. 4 spot on the GDP scorecard if output were priced at today’s currency rates.

Then there’s India, with an economic competition I’ve previously mentioned when writing about California’s GDP rank.

India is the world’s most populous nation with 1.46 billion people. California has “only” 40 million. India is blooming into one of the world’s economic superpowers that will surely surpass California’s output some year soon.

India’s $3.91 trillion GDP in 2024, just behind Japan. The IMF projects then Indian economy to grow 6.2% in U.S. dollars in 2025. Assuming California’s GDP can grow at the estimated 1.8% U.S. rate, the Indian economy could surpass the Golden State this year.

Of course, the immense wildcard in any chat about the world’s economy today is the business turmoil created by the Trump administration. Its ever-changing attempts to right what it perceives as the world’s unfair trading practices makes any business forecast a raw guestimate, at best.

We see new U.S. tariffs and ensuing retaliation by the targeted nations – plus talk of ripping up existing trade deals. Which national economies will win or lose these trade wars – not to mention California’s globally focused business climate? Who ends up where on the 2025 global GDP ladder?

It’s a big unknown.

Slow ending

California’s No. 4 global ranking is a fun fact, but it can’t hide a decidedly cooling economy.

Look at the state’s GDP growth against its domestic competition.

Last year, California’s business output grew 6% using the same GDP math. That was ninth-best among the states and topped the 5.3% national expansion.

However, the year’s end was worrisome.

GDP growth in California cooled to a 4% annual rate in the fourth quarter. A key factor is that the state’s information industries – from Silicon Valley to Hollywood – faced steep challenges.

That end-of-the-year expansion ranked No. 40 among the states and trailed the 4.8% U.S. pace.

So, California’s economic growth cooled by 33% when comparing all of 2024 to its finish. The nation’s growth shrank only 9%. And only four states slowed more than the Golden State.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 2 (ANI): Gokul V Subramaniam, President of Intel India and Vice President of the Client Computing Group, showcased Intel’s expanding role in India’s content and innovation ecosystem during the Waves Summit 2025 in Mumbai.

Speaking to ANI, Subramaniam emphasized Intel’s commitment to powering India’s growing media, gaming, and educational sectors through cutting-edge AI and processing technologies.

“Waves is an amazing opportunity, especially for content creators working in audio and video. At the core of all this is data — and data is what Intel is all about,” he said.

“We are working across multiple aspects of computing — from data centers to AI-enabled personal devices — to enable content creation at every level, from large media conglomerates to individual YouTubers.”

Subramaniam explained how Intel’s advanced processors and AI accelerators are helping streamline content workflows.

“For the big players, our data center CPUs and AI accelerators are making content creation faster and more AI-driven. And for individual influencers, our AI PCs enable quick video editing and high-quality content generation.”

He also highlighted the transformation of India’s gaming landscape.

“India has a significant population of gamers. Many have moved from mobile gaming to high-performance, network-based games on laptops. With Intel’s innovations in performance, audio-video capabilities, and affordability, we see huge potential in this space.”

One of the most exciting developments Subramaniam revealed was Intel’s collaboration with Tejas Networks and Sankhya Labs to bring TV tuner capabilities directly into laptops.

“We’ve integrated broadcast TV tuner and demodulator technology into laptops, in partnership with Tejas and Sankhya Labs. The antenna is built inside the device, allowing users to receive broadcast content without needing internet access. This has massive potential for educational content delivery — students can access lessons without paying for data or facing online distractions. With our AI PCs, this content can also be transcribed and translated in real-time.”

Subramaniam emphasized that Intel’s broader vision is to bring AI everywhere — from the cloud and network to the edge and personal devices.

“India is not just a massive consumer base — it’s a creative powerhouse. With the right tools and innovation, we believe the country can lead in content creation, gaming, and digital learning.”

The Waves Summit 2025 brought together industry leaders, tech innovators, and media professionals to explore collaborations and showcase India’s potential as a global media and tech hub.

On Thursday afternoon, Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated WAVES (World Audio Visual and Entertainment Summit). The four-day summit with tagline “Connecting Creators, Connecting Countries” is poised to position India as a global hub for media, entertainment, and digital innovation by bringing together creators, startups, industry leaders, and policymakers from across the world.

In line with Prime Minister’s vision of leveraging creativity, technology, and talent to shape a brighter future, WAVES integrates films, OTT, gaming, comics, digital media, AI, AVGC-XR, broadcasting, and emerging tech, making it a comprehensive showcase of India’s media and entertainment prowess. WAVES aims to unlock a USD 50 billion market by 2029, expanding India’s footprint in the global entertainment economy.

At WAVES 2025, India also hosts the Global Media Dialogue (GMD) for the first time, with ministerial participation from 25 countries, marking a milestone in the country’s engagement with the global media and entertainment landscape.

The Summit also features the WAVES Bazaar, a global e-marketplace with over 6,100 buyers, 5,200 sellers, and 2,100 projects. It aims to connect buyers and sellers locally and globally, ensuring wide-reaching networking and business opportunities.

WAVES 2025 witnesses participation from over 90 countries, with more than 10,000 delegates, 1,000 creators, 300+ companies, and 350+ startups. The summit will feature 42 plenary sessions, 39 breakout sessions, and 32 masterclasses spanning diverse sectors including broadcasting, infotainment, AVGC-XR, films, and digital media. (ANI)
