Protect My Car Named Among Tampa Bay’s Best Places to Work for 3rd Consecutive Year

For the third consecutive year, Protect My Car, one of the nation's leading providers of extended vehicle service contracts and maintenance plans, has been named by the Tampa Bay Business Journal (TBBJ) as one of Tampa Bay's Best Places to Work.

All 2019 Best Places to Work winners were determined exclusively on the basis of employee responses to a confidential survey that was carried out by Quantum Workplace, and which covered 10 core evaluation areas: team effectiveness, retention risk, alignment with goals, trust with co-workers, individual contribution, manager effectiveness, trust in senior leaders, feeling valued, work engagement, and people practices.

Participating companies vying for Best Places to Work recognition were segmented into four categories based on their respective workforce size: small (10-24 employees), medium (25-49 employees), large (50-99 employees) and extra-large (100+ employees). Protect My Car qualified for the extra-large category.

"Being named among Tampa Bay's Best Places to Work is exciting and gratifying," commented Craig Rubino, Protect My Car's CEO and member of the company's Board of Directors. "We strive to create a workplace culture that is characterized by inclusivity, respect, ethics, professionalism, skills development, personal growth, friendship, joy and of course, laughter and fun. Whether we are providing our customers with the industry's best extended vehicle service contracts and maintenance plans, or we are volunteering to raise funds for worthy causes in the community, we never lose sight of the fact that our people are the strength and heart of our organization."

Last year, Protect My Car was listed on the Tampa Bay Business Journal's Fast 50 list, which spotlights privately-held businesses in the Tampa Bay area that are undergoing explosive revenue growth. Protect My Car also placed on the Inc. 5000, which is an annual listing of the 5000 fastest-growing private companies in the United States.

Added Mr. Rubino, "We would also like to thank the Tampa Bay Business Journal, along with presenting sponsor Seacoast Bank, survey partner Quantum Workplace, and event venue partner Venue GMS, for their efforts in making the Best Places to Work program such a huge success."

VerLASE Extends Growing IP Base to Mass-Transfer Technology for MicroLED Displays

VerLASE Technologies announced today that it is developing unique technologies for massively parallel assembly of microLED dies or films, the central challenge in microLED display manufacturing today standing in the way of enabling wide-spread adoption of microLED technology. Many observers point to the inherent advantages of microLEDs such as brightness, efficiency, robustness, and a vision of modular panels that could be tiled into displays of any size. While a superior technology in theory which, for example, overcomes the many problems surrounding OLED displays, microLED displays have been bedeviled by practical manufacturing aspects. Among these, perfectly assembling the microLED subpixels, which can be as small as 10 microns or even smaller, in a commercially viable way on a switching backplane remains a huge, unsolved problem. Read latest news here.

Several companies, including a few start-ups, have shown various approaches to solving this problem at trade shows and conferences, however, the proposed methods appear too slow to be cost effective and generally offer no apparent way of repair and replace, since displays must be perfect with no misplaced pixels. The microLED display prototypes shown to date also tend to have lower resolutions (PPI) than might be needed today, for example, for a typical smartphone display or 8K display.

VerLASE is focused on practical methods that use well-proven semiconductor and MEMs industry methods and existing tools in novel ways to enable deterministic, massively parallel transfers of microdie, yet with provisions that allow selective repair. The methods use well developed techniques used daily in Ink-Jet Printing but is not printing per se. Comprehensive patent filings cover multiple variations of the Company's proprietary core LAAP™ process (Large Area Assembly Process). "In levering the Ink-Jet industry, our solution offers a quick path for MicroLEDs to disrupt the displays industry," said Ajay Jain, Company CTO and inventor of the technology.

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/rob-lowe-hosts-new-on-demand-segment-on.html

The Company is working on demonstrating the base principles of its solution while in discussions with potential investors. VerLASE had previously been focused on color conversion technology for microLEDs and related applications, which remains a core capability but decided to broaden the horizon given its novel solution to the Mass-Transfer problem. It has 7 US Patents now issued covering various aspects in color conversion, including some in Japan, Korea, and China, with others pending. It has now also filed a suite of IP relating to its Mass-Transfer solution.

The patents that are issued encompass VerLASE's Chromover™ branded color conversion technology, which can efficiently downconvert colors from inexpensive, widely available blue/violet light sources such as LEDs, microLEDs, or laser diodes to any color in the visible range for a wide variety of applications, to novel materials used both passively as phosphors, and actively as the electroluminescent layer in light engines of the near future.

The Company spun out of Versatilis LLC (http://www.versatls.com) in 2013 with an investment by Wakley Limited, a Hong Kong based private investment group, and operates with partners around the world. Founded by Versatilis' principals George Powch (CEO) and Ajay Jain (CTO), it focuses on technology development for large markets of the near future involving novel materials, structures and processes.

The Baby Box Co. Announces Expansion of Education and Safety Classes for New and Expecting Parents in the U.S.

The Baby Box Co. Announced today the U.S. Launch of a new class in their expanded Parent Center on babyboxco.com where parents can find online educational modules designed to help keep babies safe while receiving related rewards. The first new educational class focuses on vehicle and car seat safety and is sponsored by Michelin North America, Inc. (Michelin). Click here to read the latest news.

The Baby Box Co. was founded in 2013 and since that time has distributed over 300,000 Baby Boxes and has impacted the lives of over half a million parents. New and expecting parents obtain educational support by logging onto babyboxco.com, taking a short educational course developed by experts on a specific topic, and passing a brief quiz; they then receive quality infant-related products and services that are related to that topic free of charge.

In addition, in May, the Parent Center will add exclusive member offers from partners that can be accessed through the members-only dashboard that parents can personalize based on their needs.

The vehicle and car seat safety class is important for new parents because children spend an average of 7 hours in a car every week and most parents don't consider car safety beyond the proper installation of the car seat. Baby-proofing a vehicle is just as important as baby-proofing a home especially when it comes to tire safety. As a result, The Baby Box Co has partnered with Michelin and they will provide "Welcome Baby Kits" valued at over $200 and includes important car safety tools such as a tire-pressure gauge, a Michelin Man penny for tread-depth tests, as well as a Michelin Man plush doll, additional product information and coupon offers from Michelin and Graco Children's Products Inc. while supplies last.

"The Baby Box Co. is committed to providing the most important and relevant educational information to new and expecting parents through our new Parent Center," said Doug Wadleigh, CEO, The Baby Box Co. "Having Michelin partner with us to educate parents about car safety and particularly tire safety is extremely exciting, and we look forward to working with other premier brands to support our critical mission of keeping kids safe."

"We know The Baby Box Co. is dedicated to supporting parents to keep their children safe, and it made sense for us to work with them to help us spread the word about the importance of tire safety with their community," said Yahn Heurlin, vice president of marketing, Michelin North America.
