Deutsche Bank enables secure and compliant messaging platforms with a reach of 3+ billion users via Symphony
- Symphony Connect Solution integrates WhatsApp into
Deutsche Bank communication channels with clients - It follows the successful introduction of
WeChat via the Symphony platform in November 2019 - The WhatsApp integration addresses clients’
needs to interact through their preferred channel, especially at a time when
they need Deutsche Bank the most - It represents the latest example of
co-innovation between Deutsche Bank and Symphony
HONG KONG, CHINA – Media OutReach – 25
June 2020 –
In a drive to continuously simplify and improve its client interactions through
secure and compliant channels, Deutsche Bank has become one of the first
companies to enable the Symphony Connect Solution for secure chat and
collaboration with its clients via WhatsApp. Following the successful introduction of the WeChat functionality in November
2019, more than 3 billion users can now securely and safely communicate with
Deutsche Bank employees, who are restricted in the platforms they can use due
to regulatory requirements. Through Symphony, Deutsche Bank can communicate
with clients anytime, anywhere via their preferred chat platform while meeting
stringent security and compliance criteria, such as surveillance and data
retention.
This
latest development, co-innovated with Symphony, expands Deutsche Bank’s
diversification of its client interaction platforms, in addition to traditional
methods such as email and telephone calls. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has brought
into sharp focus how important it is for banks to stay in close contact with
clients to provide advice and expertise during this challenging period.
“An
important part of our technology strategy is to enable our people to securely
meet our clients at a time and place of their choice, and bringing together
Symphony and WhatsApp is a truly innovative way to do so,” says Bernd Leukert,
Chief Technology, Data and Innovation Officer at Deutsche Bank.
Stefan
Hoops, Head of the Corporate Bank at Deutsche Bank, added: “Our existing and
potential clients want to discuss their options with us. The integration of
WhatsApp with Symphony means we, and other businesses in the bank, can make
interactions with our clients even easier when they need us most.”
“We
are committed to providing technologies that are aligned with our customer’s
strategy while addressing industry-wide challenges such as security and
compliance. We are proud to have developed Symphony Connect Solutions that
support Deutsche Bank’s digital offering,” said David Gurlé, Symphony founder
and CEO.
The
integration of WhatsApp follows last year’s successful introduction of WeChat
via the Symphony platform. Deutsche Bank backed a partnership between Symphony
and Tencent to connect its internal Symphony users to the WeChat network.
Deutsche Bank was the first financial institution to have the WeChat
integration live in production. Today, it is helping colleagues across Deutsche
Bank’s Corporate, Investment and Private Banks engage with customers using
WeChat, a particularly useful tool to support customer-connectivity during the
COVID-19 pandemic.
The connectivity
with Facebook’s WhatsApp
is offered as part of the Symphony
Connect Solutions suite,
aimed at enabling customers to interact more easily with their clients,
counterparties, and partners, which also includes an interoperability for WeChat, Community Connect and Customer Connect.
Deutsche
Bank is a founding consortium member of Symphony and has participated in a
number of funding rounds since its inception helping to grow and scale the
platform.

Advanced Energy Transforms Indoor Farming with Intelligent New Lighting Power and Control System
Innovative technology breaks down barriers to indoor, vertical and greenhouse farming by reducing power consumption, cutting costs and increasing crop yield
DENVER, COLORADO – Media OutReach – 15
December 2020 – Advanced Energy (Nasdaq: AEIS) — a global leader in highly engineered,
precision power conversion, measurement, and control solutions —
today unveiled its newest
lighting and power control system for indoor, vertical and greenhouse farming.
![]()
AE’s new lighting and power system transforms the use of LED
technology in horticultural lighting systems, which plays a fundamental role in
cutting-edge farming practices that can address production challenges in food,
pharmaceutical ingredients, plants and flowers. Utilizing AE’s system, customers
reduce their power conversion costs by as much as 50 percent, significantly
lower installation and operating costs, and increase the quality of crop yield.
“Our groundbreaking lighting, power and control system
delivers significant improvements over conventional lighting solutions and
opens up new opportunities for the industry,” said Joe Voyles, vice president,
industrial marketing, at Advanced Energy. “We are transforming our customers’
operations by both reducing the amount of needed equipment and improving the
efficiency of the lighting systems, thereby reducing cost and energy spend. Not
only do these innovative new products increase the efficiency and quality of
fruit and vegetable production, but they also open the door to establishing
indoor farming facilities in harsh environments anywhere in the world.”
The new system consists of the patented Artesyn iTS™
(intelligent Transfer Switch) and iHPS™ configurable power supply. Alongside
Artesyn’s compact new 12 kW 300 VDC module, AE delivers a cost-effective
platform for the most advanced indoor farming applications. The system is
estimated to produce a 38 percent savings to lighting power and control
installation cost, while eliminating substantial amounts of wasted energy.
The new iHPS is a “short”
version of AE’s market-leading iHP power supply. The shorter design allows for
more space within the lighting and power cabinet for other crucial components,
reduces the weight and cost, and increases the life of the system.
The new iTS provides the industry’s first solution for switching or sharing a
single power source between two different rooms. This reduces installation
costs by cutting the number of iHP power supplies needed in half and it
substantially reduces ongoing utility costs.
For detailed product information and
technical specifications, visit the iHP product web page and
the iTS product web page.
