As CSG^® (NASDAQ: CSGS) helps businesses to meet and exceed those expectations, the company today announced that CSG has been named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Customer Journey Analytics & Orchestration. The evaluation assessed the company’s overall Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute.

 

“It’s not enough to understand the customer – businesses must act on that knowledge in real time and prove the value of every customer interaction,” said Katie Costanzo, President, Customer Experience, CSG. “That requires a unified system that turns real-time data into clear decisions, measurable outcomes, and experiences customers can trust. I am incredibly proud that CSG has been named a Leader in the inaugural Gartner Magic Quadrant for Journey Analytics & Orchestration. Our Xponent platform turns real-time data into action that allows brands to build trust with customers in the moments that matter.”

The platform integrates real-time data to drive in-the-moment personalization, so brands can identify and fix breaks in the customer experience as they occur. The result is a clearer, more straightforward experience for brands and their customers – and a stronger bottom line. For example, a US bank using CSG Xponent decreased inbound calls by 12%, tripled SMS responsiveness, reduced fraud cases by 25%, and delivered $30M in financial impact.

Solar energy expansion is booming worldwide. India, in particular, is seeing rapid growth thanks to state funding programs, tax incentives, subsidies and green loans from banks. In 2025, 37.5 gigawatts were added – a 50 percent increase from the previous year. The 2026 budget provides for a deployment of 45 to 50 gigawatts, allowing the most densely populated country to become the second largest solar market in the world. Intersolar Europe will shine a spotlight on the south Asian country from June 23–25 in Munich. India is an up-and-coming market for the international PV industry. There will be numerous events where visitors can learn about the market, new business opportunities and the structure of new supply chains. The exhibition will take place as part of The smarter E Europe, Europe’s largest alliance of exhibitions for the energy industry. More than 100,000 visitors and 2,800 exhibitors from all over the world are expected to attend.

Photovoltaics (PV) serves as the technological backbone of supply security in the expansion of renewable energies. 500 gigawatts of renewable energy are expected to be installed by 2030, including 280 gigawatts of solar energy. PV is becoming more attractive due to unprecedented price erosion: According to data from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), solar power costs in India have fallen by 80 percent since 2010, making it the most cost-effective option for new power installations.

 

But there are also challenges. The need for highly specialized skilled workers, the expansion of modern energy infrastructure and the scaling of storage capacity are key factors for the next transformative phase. These developments also open up enormous opportunities for collaborations and new markets. “India is both a major sales market and an attractive partner for expanding production capacity in the solar and storage industries. This also makes it a potential source for finished components and intermediate products,” says David Wedepohl, Managing Director International Affairs at the German Solar Association.

 

 

At the end of January 2026, the European Commission signed a free trade agreement with India. “Along the entire PV value chain – from module production and cells to wafers, ingots and polysilicon – India is growing to become one of the most dynamic producers in the world. The EU-India Free Trade Agreement also gives new opportunities for discussion and trade between both regions,” explains Dr. Puzant Baliozian, Sector Group Leader Photovoltaics Equipment at VDMA (German Engineering Federation). In the future, solar energy is set to expand onto reservoirs, bodies of water and agricultural land using agricultural PV and floating solar systems.

 

 

Side events at the exhibition

 

 

With support from Intersolar Europe and other partners, the German Solar Association is planning several side events at the exhibition on the topic of the India’s PV market. Together with the VDMA, they are dedicated to building joint supply chains. The VDMA, the German Solar Association and the Indian NSEFI are hosting a CEO roundtable, bringing together high-ranking industry representatives. The Indo-German Energy Forum are hosting a business dialogue to mark the free trade agreement concluded between India and the EU. On June 24, this series of events will be concluded by the India Meets EU: Solar Night – Networking Reception.

• 45% of C-level executives plan to establish a U.S. legal entity within the next 12 months; a further 27% say they will consider entry within two to three years
• 65% cite supply chain or manufacturing efficiency as the primary driver for U.S. expansion
• 88% identify federal and state tax reporting as the most burdensome area of U.S. compliance

 

Nearly half (45%) of global C-suite leaders plan to establish a legal entity in the United States within the next 12 months, highlighting continued demand for access to the U.S. market. This finding from the latest research by CSC—the leading provider of global business administration and compliance solutions—demonstrates the U.S. continues to attract investment from around the world, even as companies face an increasingly complex regulatory landscape.

 

CSC surveyed 300 C-level executives at large organizations headquartered in Europe, the U.K., Asia Pacific, and South America to examine global sentiment toward U.S. market entry, including expansion plans, strategic drivers, and regulatory challenges.¹ CSC’s report Navigating U.S. Market Entry: Insights, Risks, and Opportunities for Global Businesses details the results.

 

 

The research highlights strong forward momentum toward U.S. expansion. In addition to the 45% planning to establish an entity within the next 12 months, a further 27% say they will consider entry over the next two to three years.

 

 

Operational and strategic benefits are the dominant drivers for expansion. Almost two-thirds of the executives (65%) cite supply chain or manufacturing efficiency as the main motivation for establishing a U.S. presence. Strategic positioning—including partnerships and mergers and acquisitions opportunities—is cited by 56% of respondents, while 56% also highlight access to capital markets as a key motivator.

 

 

“We’re seeing a clear trend of U.K., European, and Asia-Pacific multinationals incorporating a U.S. entity to reach the approximately 340 million consumers or investors in the U.S.,” said Myrna Reijnders, market leader, Americas at CSC. “It’s a significant movement across sectors—from retail, real estate, insurance, healthcare, and biotech to energy, AI, and technology, including critical infrastructure, such as data centers.”

 

 

Despite strong enthusiasm, companies acknowledge entering the U.S. market is far from straightforward. Almost nine-in-10 (88%) respondents view federal and state tax reporting as the most burdensome compliance requirement, followed closely by employment and labor regulations (80%).

 

 

Many companies underestimate the realities of operating in the U.S. Half (50%) of companies with some degree of U.S. presence say they were surprised by the complexity of tax and financial reporting requirements once operations were underway.

 

 

As a result, they increasingly see outsourcing as a practical strategy for managing compliance and operational risk. A significant 79% of executives indicate they will likely outsource U.S. compliance or governance functions to a specialist provider, with 62% stating this is “very likely.”

 

 

“Companies assume doing business in the U.S. means you’re working in one jurisdiction. But rules and requirements can vary at the federal, state, and local levels,” added Jenn Kenton, chief commercial officer at CSC. “That’s where the challenge lies. Successfully setting up and maintaining a U.S. business means navigating those differences. It’s also where CSC has supported companies for over 125 years. Our goal is to ensure companies are set up to operate and remain compliant in the U.S. and beyond.”

 

 

CSC has been helping organizations incorporate, operate, and maintain compliance in the United States since 1899. Today, the company provides U.S. governance and compliance services, including registered agent representation in all 50 states, entity formation and management, annual report filing, business license management, and compliance monitoring to help organizations maintain good standing.

Today, Venture Global and Edison jointly announced the signature of a commercial agreement for the settlement of the pending arbitration between the two companies concerning the Calcasieu Pass project.

 

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260326559130/en/

 

 

Completion of the settlement is expected by the end of Q2 2026, at which point the arbitration will be terminated. The agreement fully resolves the arbitration in its entirety. As part of the settlement, Edison and Venture Global have also agreed to the delivery to Europe of additional cargoes beyond those envisaged under the long-term contract, to support gas supplies primarily to the Italian market. The first delivery is scheduled for May 2026, in Italy, at the Adriatic LNG Terminal.

 

 

The agreement represents a significant step in strengthening commercial cooperation between the parties and it establishes a foundation for further future deliveries in the context of the disruption caused by ongoing geopolitical events.

 

 

Both parties welcome this agreement, as it further consolidates long‑term deliveries and enhances the commercial partnership between Venture Global and Edison which is an important foundational customer of the Calcasieu Pass project. The parties look forward to continuing to work together to pursue Venture Global’s mission of stabilizing global LNG/gas markets and to further consolidate Edison’s role in guaranteeing the stability and security of Italy’s energy supply.

Netflix is forecast to reach over 1 billion monthly active users globally by 2027, while YouTube is expected to approach 3 billion users worldwide according to Omdia.

 

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260326155411/en/

 

 

 

The new data, presented by Maria Rua Aguete, Head of Media & Entertainment at Omdia, at Series Mania, showcases how global platforms are reshaping video consumption across Europe.

 

During her session with Justine Ryst, Managing Director of YouTube France and Southern Europe, Aguete highlighted that Netflix and YouTube are the leading first-choice options for video services in France, ahead of traditional broadcasters and pay TV. Netflix leads the market at 18%, followed by YouTube at 12%.

 

 

The session, “How to Turn YouTube into an Asset for Your Series?”, underlined the evolving role of YouTube in the content ecosystem. While there is significant audience overlap between YouTube and major French broadcasters such as France TV, TF1+, and M6+, the data also shows that a substantial portion of YouTube’s audience sits outside these services, making it a critical platform for incremental reach.

 

 

This dual-dynamic positions YouTube as both a complementary platform – enhancing reach among existing TV audiences – and a gateway to new viewers that broadcasters may not otherwise capture.

 

 

In the UK, the market reflects a balanced ecosystem between global and local players. Netflix (17%), Sky (15%), and YouTube (9%) rank as the leading first-choice services, highlighting the continued relevance of premium pay TV alongside streaming.

 

 

“Scale and reach are critical, but so is complementarity. Platforms like YouTube not only amplify content but also unlock entirely new audiences, while Netflix continues to lead in premium storytelling and engagement,” said Rua Aguete.

 

 

The findings reinforce a key industry shift: success increasingly depends on combining global scale with local relevance, leveraging platforms not just as competitors, but as strategic partners to grow total audiences.
