Saabsoft Launches Integrated Real Estate Technology Platform for Developers and Brokers in the UAE

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, March 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Saabsoft Technologies, a leading Bitrix24 Partner UAE and recipient of the Best Bitrix24 Partner in the Middle East award, has announced the official launch of its fully integrated Real Estate Technology Platform designed to serve property developers and brokerage firms across Bitrix24 UAE and Bitrix24 Dubai markets.

The newly launched platform introduces a comprehensive Project Inventory App tailored specifically for real estate developers. The solution enables advanced 2D and 3D unit visualization, real-time inventory tracking, pricing management, availability control, and structured sales workflows — allowing developers to manage projects from launch through completion within a centralized system.

Complementing the inventory solution is Saabsoft’s customized Real Estate Finance Module, built to address the operational needs of property developers. The module includes instalments schedule management, revenue tracking, commission calculations, cash flow monitoring, and comprehensive financial reporting. A fully customized Executive Finance Dashboard provides real-time insights, empowering leadership teams with accurate data to support strategic decision-making.

For real estate brokers, Saabsoft offers its dedicated Listing App, enabling streamlined property management alongside customized KPI dashboards that track agent performance, deal pipelines, conversion ratios, and commission structures. This integrated approach ensures that brokerage operations, sales monitoring, and performance analytics are managed within one unified ecosystem.

A significant component of the announcement is Saabsoft’s technology partnership with Property Finder, one of the Middle East’s largest property portals. Through native integration developed by Saabsoft, clients can publish listings directly to Property Finder and other listing portals while automatically capturing qualified leads into Bitrix24. This eliminates manual data entry and consolidates portal leads, direct inquiries, and CRM activities into a single platform.

As part of its end-to-end digital transformation strategy, Saabsoft also provides Website Development services fully integrated with both the Project Inventory App and the Listing App. Developers and brokers can publish properties directly on their corporate websites while automatically routing inquiries into the same centralized Bitrix24 system. This ensures synchronized inventory management, unified lead capture, and complete operational visibility.

“Our goal is to provide companies with a real estate CRM more than a traditional one,” said Ashraf Soubhi, Managing Director of Saabsoft Technologies. “Through our expertise in Bitrix24 UAE and Bitrix24 Dubai implementations, we deliver a fully connected ecosystem that integrates project inventory, finance, listing portals, and website development into one powerful and scalable solution.”

Saabsoft currently serves more than 600 companies across the Middle East, delivering enterprise-grade digital transformation solutions across real estate, government, healthcare, and enterprise sectors.

With this announcement, Saabsoft reinforces its position as a leading real estate technology provider in the region, offering developers and brokers a comprehensive, single-platform solution that enhances efficiency, transparency, and long-term growth.

Zoom introduces next-gen Zoom Virtual Agent to automate end-to-end customer resolution

  • New virtual agent capabilities reduce customer effort, prevent repeat contacts, and give service leaders confidence to scale automation
  • With 43% of consumers saying chatbots fail to resolve their issues, Zoom Virtual Agent 3.0 can help organizations close that gap

SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Today Zoom Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZM) unveiled Zoom Virtual Agent 3.0 (ZVA), the next evolution in agentic automation. ZVA introduces a new execution architecture and expanded AI capabilities designed to resolve customer issues end to end, seamlessly hand off to human agents, and help enterprises shift from transactional service interactions to connected customer relationships.

Organizations face growing pressure to automate more customer service interactions as volumes rise and cost efficiency becomes a priority. Enterprises are entering what Zoom calls the “resolution economy,” where competitive advantage is defined not by speed, but by first-contact resolution, reduced repeat contacts, and end-to-end workflow completion. Yet disjointed virtual agents can get stuck in silos, unable to seamlessly transfer full context to human agents, creating bottlenecks for complex issues. A recent Morning Consult report commissioned by Zoom found that the top three chatbot frustrations among the groups surveyed are failure to resolve the issue (43%), getting stuck in a loop (38%), and having to repeat information (37%).

“Agentic AI was just the beginning,” said Chris Morrissey, general manager of Zoom CX. “Zoom Virtual Agent 3.0 orchestrates multi-step workflows across systems, continuously learns from human resolutions, and provides full transparency into every agentic action. This allows organizations to confidently automate complex interactions. It’s more than a product update, it’s another step toward more connected customer relationships, where AI and humans work together to resolve issues faster and build trust.”

What's new in Zoom Virtual Agent 3.0

The next evolution of Zoom Virtual Agent operates across voice and chat, and introduces a new execution architecture designed to automate complex, cross-system interactions with enterprise governance. Unlike competing solutions focused primarily on conversational containment, ZVA is built for execution and resolution, securely orchestrating multi-step actions across systems with observability, control, and measurable outcomes. The following new features are now available:

  • Enhanced AI execution framework: Zoom Virtual Agent 3.0 is built on the latest Zoom AI Companion 3.0 architecture, allowing multi-step workflows to run across compatible CRM, billing, order management, and other enterprise systems with full observability and governance. This extends Zoom’s agentic AI capabilities by enabling full-cycle resolution rather than just single-step responses.
  • Agent journey transparency and governance enhancements: Account admins can now see the data sources, decision logic, and workflow paths behind automated actions. CX teams can audit performance, troubleshoot breakdowns, and refine automation policies, enabling responsible scaling without sacrificing adherence or control.

The following next-generation enhancements, expected to be generally available in Spring 2026, will expand ZVA’s ability to handle more complex workflows while improving reliability, oversight, and operational efficiency:

  • Multimodal large language model (LLM) intelligence: ZVA will be able to interpret and act on customer-submitted documents, images, and structured identifiers such as serial numbers and forms. By extracting relevant data directly from visual and document inputs, the virtual agent can automate service scenarios that previously required manual review, helping reduce customer effort and the need for escalation.
  • Continuous learning: When integrated with Zoom Contact Center, ZVA extracts insights from escalated engagements that human agents successfully resolved and applies those validated recommendations, with oversight and controls, to similar future requests. This creates a structured feedback loop based on human-agent resolutions, reducing repeat contacts and improving resolution consistency over time.
  • Proactive outbound engagement: The virtual agent can initiate contact, confirm updates, and complete tasks based on known events. This helps organizations resolve issues before customers reach out, reducing inbound volume and customer effort.

Zoom Virtual Agent in action

Modern customer issues rarely fit into a single scripted response. Zoom Virtual Agent (ZVA) is designed to move beyond basic automation, including authenticating users, interpreting inputs, orchestrating backend systems, and completing real business actions within a single, connected workflow.

By reducing repetitive steps and minimizing handoffs, ZVA helps increase first-contact resolution while lowering handling time and operational effort. An example of this is below:

  • Scenario: End-to-End Warranty Fulfillment
    • When a customer submits a warranty claim, ZVA can authenticate the user, extract a serial number from an uploaded image, validate eligibility across backend systems, schedule device pickup, initiate a replacement order, and confirm shipment, all within one continuous interaction.
    • If escalation is required, the complete workflow history, including verified inputs and actions already taken, transfers seamlessly to a live agent. The customer does not need to repeat information or restart the process, accelerating resolution and improving the overall experience.

Raising the bar for resolution

As organizations automate more interactions to manage rising volumes and cost pressures, performance is increasingly measured by resolution quality — not containment rates alone. In the resolution economy, automation must accurately interpret intent, execute across systems, and meaningfully reduce operational load.

Zoom is already seeing measurable results internally after implementing the latest updates to ZVA in its own virtual agents:

  • Query understanding accuracy: Zoom’s no-match rate (the percentage of total conversation turns in which a virtual agent failed to understand the user's input) has dropped from 35% to 0%, meaning almost all customer requests are accurately interpreted on the first attempt, reducing repeat queries and friction.
  • Significant time savings: On Zoom’s billing team, deflection rates (measuring the percentage of customer support inquiries resolved through self-service tools) rose from 0% to 30% in just three months, saving over 1,000 agent hours per month.

Zoom Virtual Agent 3.0 reflects Zoom’s broader ambition to power intelligent, connected customer experiences where AI and human agents work together to complete complex interactions with speed, transparency, and trust. This is automation designed not just to scale, but also to earn trust with every interaction.

LYB announces updated 2030 sustainability goals

HOUSTON, Feb. 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — LyondellBasell (NYSE:LYB) today announced updates to its 2030 climate and circularity goals amid the need for disciplined capital allocation, evolving market conditions and regulatory developments. The goals remain ambitious, while balancing the need to adjust for near-term achievability. The company’s three-pillared strategy remains unchanged: growing and upgrading the core, building a profitable circular and low-carbon business, and stepping up performance and culture. To ensure alignment with the strategy and reflect the realities of today’s operating environment, the updated goals are as follows:

  • Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions reduction: 32% by 2030, relative to a 2020 baseline.1
  • Circularity: produce and market 800,000 metric tons of recycled and renewable-based polymers annually by 2030.2

“Over the past several years, we have made measurable progress and gained a deeper understanding of factors that enable us to deliver value from circular and low carbon solutions, including the pace of policy adoption and implementation, market demand and technology readiness. At the same time, maintaining capital discipline is essential in the current economic environment,” said Peter Vanacker, chief executive officer of LYB. “We will continue to create value for our stakeholders through being a leader in sustainability in the chemical industry and executing our strategy. These updates to our goals ensure we remain focused on advancing sustainability as a key value driver of our business at a pace aligned with market conditions and the regulatory environment.”

To date, the company has achieved significant milestones, including advancing construction of the MoReTec-1 plant, the company’s first commercial-scale catalytic chemical recycling plant using its proprietary MoReTec technology in Wesseling, Germany, targeting future profitable growth in circular and low-carbon solutions. The company has also made progress in reducing emissions, including at the Houston Refinery site, and through value-creating energy efficiency measures at its manufacturing sites via its Value Enhancement Program, and securing sufficient projects to reach the company target of procuring a minimum of 50% of electricity from renewable sources by 2030 (based on 2020 procured levels).

The updated goals will not impact supply commitments or commercial contracts.

Details on LyondellBasell's refreshed sustainability approach and the enablers that impact the achievement of its sustainability goals will be shared in the company’s annual Sustainability Report in April 2026.

Bodor Laser veranstaltet jährliche Preisverleihung und Jahresauftakt auf dem neuen globalen Hauptsitz-Campus

JINAN, China, Feb. 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Anlässlich der jährlichen Preisverleihung und der Jahresauftaktveranstaltung versammelte Bodor Laser Mitarbeiter aus dem gesamten Unternehmen im Dream Park, dem kürzlich fertiggestellten Campus des globalen Hauptsitzes. Die Veranstaltung stand unter dem Motto „Park & Dreams“ und diente sowohl dem Rückblick auf die Erfolge des Jahres 2025 als auch dem Startschuss für die nächste Entwicklungsphase des Unternehmens.

Grundsatzrede des Vorsitzenden

In seiner Grundsatzrede skizzierte President Kong Jie das dem Dream Park zugrundeliegende Konzept und bekräftigte das Engagement von Bodor Laser für Innovation und nachhaltiges Wachstum. Von den ersten Produktionsstätten bis zur vollen Inbetriebnahme des Dream Parks dauerte es 18 Jahre – ein Meilenstein, der die langfristigen Investitionen in modernste Fertigung und globale Geschäftstätigkeiten verdeutlicht.

Der Dream Park wurde als moderner Industriecampus konzipiert, der Produktion, Forschung und Entwicklung sowie Büroflächen mit intelligenten Managementsystemen und Mitarbeitereinrichtungen in einem ganzheitlichen Layout vereint. Der Campus soll die betriebliche Effizienz steigern und gleichzeitig ein kollaboratives und menschenzentriertes Arbeitsumfeld fördern.

Ungeachtet des schwierigen globalen Marktumfelds konnte Bodor Laser im Jahr 2025 eine solide Leistung vorweisen und übertraf seine Jahresziele. Das Unternehmen ist laut dem Qianzhan Industry Research Institute im sechsten Jahr in Folge (2019–2024) weltweit der führende Hersteller von Faserlaserschneidmaschinen (ab 1.000 W). Im vergangenen Jahr wurden mehr als 10.000 Maschinen aus der „DreamSpace Super Factory“ ausgeliefert sowie die Produktionskapazität und Betriebseffizienz weiter gesteigert.

Zu den weiteren Meilensteinen des Jahres zählte die Eröffnung der Südchina-Zentrale in Shenzhen, die Erweiterung des Portfolios im Bereich der Blech- und Rohrlaserschnitte und ein komplettes Angebot an Schweißlösungen. Zudem erhielt das Unternehmen drei Red Dot Design Awards, einschließlich der höchsten Auszeichnung „Best of the Best“. Parallel dazu startete das Unternehmen weitreichende KI-Initiativen und entwickelte einen eigenen KI-Agenten, um die Integration intelligenter Fertigungsprozesse massiv zu beschleunigen.

Was die Zukunft betrifft, so wurde das Jahr 2026 als ein entscheidendes Jahr definiert. Das Unternehmen hat sich ein Umsatzziel von 4,6 Milliarden RMB gesetzt und plant, die globale Vertriebsführerschaft weiter zu festigen, Produktportfolios zu modernisieren, Vertriebskanäle zu stärken und Innovationssysteme auszubauen, um das langfristige strategische Wachstum zu stützen.

Im Rahmen der Feierlichkeiten wurden in 19 Kategorien fast 300 Mitarbeiter für ihre herausragenden Leistungen geehrt. Zudem wurden 27 Mitarbeiter für ihre zehnjährige Betriebszugehörigkeit ausgezeichnet. Nachdem der Dream Park nun vollständig in Betrieb ist, plant Bodor Laser die Zusammenarbeit zwischen Forschung, Produktion und dem globalen Vertrieb zu intensivieren, um die intelligente Fertigung auf internationaler Ebene voranzubringen.

Bodor Laser Apresenta Premiação Anual e Inicia o Ano em Nova Sede Global

JINAN, China, Feb. 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — A Bodor Laser reuniu funcionários de toda a empresa no Dream Park, seu recém-concluído campus da sede global, em uma cerimônia de premiação anual e evento de início do ano. Realizado sob o tema “Park & Dreams”, o evento apresentou uma análise das conquistas de 2025 e deu início ao próximo estágio de desenvolvimento da empresa.

Discurso de Abertura do Presidente

Em seu discurso de abertura, o presidente Kong Jie delineou a visão do Dream Park e reafirmou o compromisso da Bodor Laser com a inovação e o crescimento sustentável. Nos últimos 18 anos, a empresa vem se expandindo até chegar ao Dream Park, um marco que reflete o investimento de longo prazo em fabricação avançada e operações globais.

Projetado como um campus industrial moderno, o Dream Park integra produção, P&D, escritórios, sistemas de gerenciamento inteligentes e instalações para funcionários em um layout unificado. O campus destina-se a aumentar a eficiência operacional e, ao mesmo tempo, apoiar um ambiente de trabalho colaborativo e centrado nas pessoas.

Mesmo diante de um ambiente de mercado global desafiador, a Bodor Laser teve um desempenho sólido em 2025, superando seus objetivos anuais. A empresa ficou em primeiro lugar no mundo em volume de vendas de máquinas de corte a laser de fibra (1.000W e acima) pelo sexto ano consecutivo (2019–2024), de acordo com o Qianzhan Industry Research Institute. Durante o ano, mais de 10.000 máquinas foram fabricadas na DreamSpace Super Factory, fortalecendo ainda mais sua capacidade de produção e a eficiência operacional.
