Datavault AI Signs Multi-Million Dollar Tokenization Services Agreement With Triton Geothermal to Provide Significant Revenue Opportunities

Agreement Positions Datavault as a Leader in Valuation, Digitization, and Monetization of Real-World Assets (RWA)

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — via IBN – Datavault AI Inc. (NASDAQ: DVLT), a provider of data monetization, credentialing, digital engagement, and real‑world asset (RWA) tokenization technologies, announces that it has entered into a Tokenization Service Agreement with Triton Geothermal LLC (“Triton”), headquartered in Houston, Texas, the energy capital of the world. Triton is a full cycle baseload geothermal energy company that can provide reliable electricity 24/7.

Under the terms of the agreement, Datavault AI will receive up to $8,000,000 in tokenization fees associated with an anticipated digital token offering with a projected gross value of approximately $125,000,000. The agreement also provides for Datavault AI to receive continuing participation equal to five percent of all digital token transaction fees collected by Triton following the offering. This engagement represents a significant commercial opportunity for Datavault AI’s RWA tokenization business and supports the company’s strategic objective to expand recurring revenue within regulated digital asset markets.

The digital token offering is intended to support the development of Triton’s geothermal energy production assets. Triton’s initial extraction location is situated within a known geothermal reservoir originally validated through the United States Department of Energy (DOE) research programs. The underlying resource is based on a significant, independently verified reservoir containing substantial, recoverable geothermal fluid volumes and a commercially supported development extending over a multiyear program with numerous scheduled baseload power plant facilities within the United States. Independent technical geothermal reservoir validation by the DOE and market assessments by Triton have been completed to determine the resource’s economic feasibility and to inform the token’s underlying asset base.

Datavault AI to Serve as Exclusive Technology Provider

Datavault AI has been appointed as the exclusive technology provider for tokenization of Triton’s current and ongoing renewable geothermal energy portfolio as the company continues to scale and expand its future operations. Broader reservoir and historical drilling data suggest long-term development with multiple geothermal plants. These characteristics establish strong valuation fundamentals for a tokenized structure. Triton’s responsibilities include configuration and deployment of smart contract frameworks, facilitation of token creation, and administration of non‑custodial controls for technical execution under Datavault AI’s proprietary tokenization protocols and the project development.

Prior to issuance, the digital tokens will be supported by an independent valuation acceptable to both parties. Distribution of the tokens may occur through exempt or registered offerings, subject to applicable securities regulations in relevant jurisdictions.

According to Triton’s Chief Executive Officer, Pietro Castelli, “The use of Datavault AI’s platform is expected to enhance the transparency, compliance, and operational control of tokenized renewable energy assets.”

Datavault AI’s Chief Marketing Officer and Lead Principal Investigator for a Strategic Partnership Project with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Brookhaven National Laboratory, Sonia Choi, stated, “This is an exciting moment for us. It not only reflects the growing maturity of our work in RWA tokenization but also shows how real-world digital assets can meaningfully support renewable energy initiatives. We’re energized to kick things off and move this next phase forward together.”

Datavault AI’s Chief Executive Officer and co-founder, Nathaniel Bradley, said, “Geothermal is one of the very few natural renewable energy sources, and it is uniquely positioned to become a key solution in the progression of advanced energy systems and AI driven infrastructure. This opportunity represents the viability of integrating structured digital assets with renewable energy development programs to accelerate energy production in the United States.”

Datavault AI anticipates that additional tokenization agreements of similar nature will form an increasing component of its revenue base as institutional participation and regulatory clarity in the digital asset sector continue to develop.

Positioning Barbados as the Caribbean’s Life Sciences Hub

EarlyHealth City to Anchor US$200 Million Investment

BRIDGETOWN, Barbados, Nov. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Export Barbados (BIDC) and EarlyHealth Group (EHG), headquartered in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, have signed a Letter of Intent to jointly establish EarlyHealth City Barbados, a US$200 Million world-class pharmaceutical and life sciences cluster earmarked for Newton, Christ Church. The initiative is expected to attract international pharmaceutical partners, drive industrialisation through sustainable contract manufacturing, and expand laboratory and clinical research capacity in Barbados and for the wider Caribbean.

Located across 45 acres, EarlyHealth City will feature three domes totaling more than 250,000 square feet of contract manufacturing space dedicated to the production of oral solids, semi-solids, liquids, and advanced biologics. This includes integrated capabilities for cell cultivation, upstream and downstream bioprocessing, and full scale-up to commercial release under United States and European Union Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards.

EHG, a global pharmaceutical services and life sciences company supporting manufacturing, clinical studies, and market access across 60 countries, has already secured Memorandum of Understandings (MOUs) with a number of clients including Acarpia Farmaceutici Srl, Bioeq AG, Formycon AG, Swedish Orphan Biovitrum (SOBI), and several Asian-, European-, and South American-based manufacturers.

The City will incorporate a fourth dome housing a Security Operations Centre (SOC), designed and managed by EHG’s business partner and Dubai’s fastest-growing cybersecurity and data protection company Cyb3r Limited. The SOC is expected to feature an AI-driven cybersecurity and data-analytics infrastructure intended to safeguard digital assets, manage regulatory data, and provide secure network operations for the life sciences cluster. The same dome will also house a 30,000 square foot high-performance cricket training facility operated by global sports company DriveFITT. That facility is expected to integrate cutting-edge biomechanics and recovery technology to enhance athletic performance and to train and nurture new generations of West Indies fast bowlers.

Prime Minister the Hon Mia Amor Mottley, SC, MP, noted that Barbados is committed to providing the infrastructure, investment, and oversight required to deliver what she called a “transformative project” for the island. She explained that “beyond infrastructure, EarlyHealth City Barbados will drive job creation and build local scientific and technical talent, allowing Barbadians to play a central role in developing a new industry. It is a cornerstone of Barbados’ economic future, embedding pharmaceutical innovation and production directly into our industrial base.”

Dr. Dan A. Renout, Chief Executive Officer of EarlyHealth Group, the driving force behind the initiative, observed that “EarlyHealth City Barbados is more than a manufacturing site. It is a platform for transformation. By combining world-class standards and building local talent and innovation, we are creating an ecosystem that strengthens supply resilience, generates skilled employment, and connects the Caribbean to the global pharmaceutical industry.”

Once complete, EarlyHealth City Barbados will host a community of more than 1,000 professionals, offering wellness amenities, restaurants, and collaborative workspaces that reflect a modern, sustainable lifestyle. Together, these facilities will form the Caribbean’s premier life sciences hub.

Senior Minister Coordinating the Productive Sector and Minister of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade the Hon. Kerrie Symmonds hailed EarlyHealth City Barbados as a leading example of commercial diplomacy at its finest. He noted the critical role the Embassy of Barbados in the UAE and its Ambassador Her Excellency Dr. Annalee C. Babb are playing in helping EHG develop a number of critical value propositions for the island, culminating in the proposed life sciences city.

Minister of Innovation, Industry, Science and Technology Senator the Hon. Jonathan Reid observed that “Barbados is taking decisive steps to join the ranks of countries leading in life sciences and pharmaceutical innovation, building a foundation for sustainable economic growth and global competitiveness.” The Minister lauded Export Barbados, its Chairman Mr. Dodridge Miller, and its Chief Executive Officer Mr. Mark Hill for their ingenuity and foresight in not only leading the conceptualisation of Barbados as a regional hub for the global life sciences sector, but also in designing an iconic building he believes can serve as a prototype for new approaches to high-end pharmaceutical manufacturing.

Modern service framework helps industrial operators cut downtime, boost reliability, and accelerate progress towards sustainability goals

Complementing this, the framework training and upskilling programme ensures that customer teams are equipped with the knowledge and confidence to maintain performance, safety and efficiency for the long term.

“Industry servicing shouldn’t exist in silos, added Philippe Lambert, Vice President, Commercial & Service. “John Crane Performance Plus™ delivers an integrated, customer-centric approach that brings together smart technology, data insights and human expertise to keep operations running smoothly, reliably, safely and sustainably. That’s what service excellence looks like in the modern era.

Delight in gourmet cuisine with stunning views along the harbour

Their journey continues with a celebration of the local culinary scene. MINGYU and VERNON indulged in a curated selection of Chinese dishes, enjoying rich flavours against the Victoria Harbour as the backdrop. Among the highlights include the crispy Peking duck and traditional dim sum platter. “No matter when you eat it, dim sum is always delicious,” “I really like Peking duck skin.” Two members shared their unique way of relishing the savoury dish. As night fell, the duo headed to a rooftop bar overlooking the city’s iconic skyline. Savouring handcrafted cocktails, the two took in the panoramic view of the heart of Hong Kong and immersed themselves in the vibrant energy that defines Hong Kong as the city that never sleeps.

The gastronomic adventure in Hong Kong has much more to offer. Victoria Harbour is a shining constellation of culinary excellence in Asia. Imagine Michelin-starred dining and sky-high cocktails within luxury hotels and iconic buildings, all framed by the harbour’s breathtaking views. From Tsim Sha Tsui’s vibrant restaurants to the waterfront scene stretching across Hong Kong Island, unforgettable views are always on the menu.
