Ramp, a $13 billion fintech startup, is making waves as it seeks to play a significant role in overhauling the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44467865/will-they-wont-they-us-government-hits-pause-on-sale-of-federal-offices-as-opponents-call-firings-an-assault-on-the-rule-of-law">U.S. government</a>&#8216;s $700 billion SmartPay program.
According to<a href="https://www.propublica.org/article/trump-peter-thiel-ramp-gsa-smartpay-expense-payment-system"> ProPublica</a>, Ramp is positioning itself as a key player in modernizing federal expense management with backing from tech heavyweights like Peter Thiel and connections to Elon Musk&#8216;s circle.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Strategic Pitch to the Trump Administration</h2>
Just days before President <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44919025/jd-vance-finalizes-terms-for-trade-deal-with-indian-prime-minister-modi-trump-wants-america-and-india-to-grow">Donald Trump</a>&#8216;s inauguration, Ramp CEO Eric Glyman and investor Kyle Harrison published a<a href="https://research.contrary.com/deep-dive/efficiency-formula"> blog post</a> titled &#8220;The Efficiency Formula,&#8221; advocating for the application of business efficiency techniques to federal programs plagued by waste and fraud. This move aligned with the administration&#8217;s focus on streamlining government operations.​

</ul>
Within the first three months of Trump&#8217;s term, Ramp executives secured multiple private meetings with officials at the General Services Administration, including top procurement officer Josh Gruenbaum. These discussions centered around Ramp&#8217;s potential involvement in the SmartPay program, which handles internal expense cards for federal agencies. ​
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The $25 Million Pilot Program</h2>
The GSA is considering Ramp for a pilot program worth up to $25 million, aiming to test new approaches to managing government expenses. This initiative is part of a broader effort to address inefficiencies and potential fraud within the SmartPay system. However, some experts have raised concerns about the expedited process and the appearance of favoritism toward Ramp.​
Scott Amey, general counsel at the Project on Government Oversight, said this &#8220;goes against all the normal contracting safeguards that are set up to prevent contracts from being awarded based on who you know.&#8221;​

Despite the raised eyebrows, GSA maintains a clean face. They've pushed back against any whisper of bias or favoritism, stating the initiative has been transparent and public from the start, wrapped in the justification of fighting waste, fraud, and abuse.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ramp&#8217;s Impressive Growth and AI Integration</h2>
Since its founding in 2019, Ramp has experienced rapid growth, now serving over 30,000 businesses and processing $55 billion in annual payments. The company&#8217;s AI-driven platform aims to automate financial operations, reducing manual tasks and improving efficiency.​
Glyman emphasized Ramp&#8217;s mission, saying, &#8220;We&#8217;re obsessed with one goal: giving businesses back their time and money.&#8221; He added, &#8220;AI is fundamentally changing how businesses operate, and we're ensuring our customers are at the forefront of this transformation.&#8221;

<a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/01/22/ramp-encroaches-into-digital-bank-territory-with-new-treasury-product/">In addition to its core offerings, Ramp recently launched a new product called Ramp Treasury, aiming to give its customers a way to earn money and not just save cash. This move takes Ramp into more of the digital bank territory, allowing businesses to store cash in a business account and earn interest while maintaining liquidity to pay bills.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Political Connections and Investor Influence</h2>
Ramp&#8217;s investor roster includes prominent figures with ties to the Trump administration, such as Thiel&#8217;s Founders Fund and Thrive Capital, founded by Joshua Kushner, brother of Trump&#8217;s son-in-law, Jared Kushner. These connections have sparked discussions about the influence of political affiliations on federal contracting decisions.​
As the GSA moves forward with the SmartPay pilot program, all eyes are on Ramp and its potential to reshape how the federal government manages its vast expense operations.

While the exact financial terms were not disclosed, the partnership underscores Adobe&#8217;s commitment to pioneering technologies that are set to redefine video production.​ Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) also joined the roster of high-profile investors in Synthesia, further validating the startup's role in shaping the future of AI video technology.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Pioneering the AI Video Frontier</h2>
Founded in 2017, Synthesia has rapidly emerged as a leader in the generative AI space, offering a platform that enables businesses to create lifelike video avatars for various applications, from corporate training to marketing. The company&#8217;s approach has attracted a clientele that includes over 70% of the Fortune 100, highlighting its significant impact on enterprise communications.
According to <a href="https://www.maginative.com/article/adobe-invests-in-synthesia-as-the-ai-video-startup-hits-100m-revenue-milestone/">Maginative</a>, Synthesia announced a $180 million Series D funding round in January, elevating its valuation to $2.1 billion. This milestone not only positioned Synthesia as the most valuable generative AI media firm in the UK but also signaled growing investor confidence in the potential of AI-driven video solutions, <a href="https://www.thetimes.com/business-money/technology/article/british-start-up-synthesia-hits-21bn-valuation-on-ai-video-boom-j9775xcw8">The Times of London reported.</a>
Victor Riparbelli, CEO and co-founder of Synthesia, expressed his enthusiasm about the partnership.​ &#8220;We are incredibly proud to announce these milestones. Reaching $100 million in ARR underscores the significant value and impact our AI video platform and solutions bring to enterprises and the shared determination of our team to build a generational software business," <a href="https://www.synthesia.io/post/100-million-revenue-adobe-investment">he said in a statement</a> earlier this month. "The Adobe Ventures investment represents a powerful endorsement of our vision for enterprise-grade video communications, enabling us to deliver even greater innovation and customer value.&#8221;​
Trending: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Synthesia&#8217;s Equipment-Free Approach</h2>
Synthesia&#8217;s platform generates high-quality videos without the need for traditional filming equipment or actors. Users can create personalized avatars, either by recording themselves or selecting from a library of pre-designed characters, streamlining the video production process and reducing associated costs.​
The company&#8217;s growth has been fueled by continuous innovation and a keen understanding of enterprise needs. Features such as AI-powered localization, live collaboration tools, and an AI screen recorder have made Synthesia&#8217;s platform a comprehensive solution for businesses aiming to enhance their communication strategies.​
While Synthesia has achieved significant milestones, it operates in a competitive landscape. OpenAI&#8217;s introduction of Sora, a text-to-video model capable of generating realistic video clips based on user prompts, represents a notable entrant in the AI video space. However, Synthesia&#8217;s focus on enterprise solutions and its established customer base provide it with a distinct advantage.

Beyond its impressive growth and technological advancements, Synthesia has demonstrated a strong commitment to ethical AI practices, according to <a href="https://time.com/7012706/victor-riparbelli/">Time</a>. Recognizing the potential for misuse of AI-generated content, the company has implemented stringent verification processes to prevent the unauthorized creation of avatars.
Users are required to provide explicit consent and undergo identity verification before generating personalized avatars, ensuring that individuals&#8217; likenesses are protected from exploitation. This approach has positioned Synthesia as a responsible leader in the AI industry, balancing innovation with accountability.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Future of Interactive Content</h2>
Looking ahead, Synthesia plans to expand its offerings by introducing AI agents that allow for real-time video interactions, further blurring the lines between human and AI-generated content. This development aims to enhance user engagement and open new avenues for personalized communication.​

Adobe Invests In $2.1B AI Unicorn Synthesia As OpenAI's Sora Competes In The Race For AI-Generated Video Dominance

<ul>
<li>Base creator Jesse Pollak does not appear to be afraid of offending traders in his quest to defend a controversial token experiment by the project.</li>
<li>A Pump.fun co-founder has pushed back against Pollak&#8217;s statement.</li>
<li>Base says it wants to drive an on-chain content revolution.</li>
</ul>
Over the past few days, the team behind Base, the Coinbase Global-incubated (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) Ethereum Layer 2 blockchain, <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/coinbase-hot-water-over-12-130000410.html">has come under fire</a> over a supposed token experiment that briefly left some market speculators holding the bag. But instead of making concessions or apologizing, the Base team, particularly its lead developer Jesse Pollak, is doubling down.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Creators Over Traders</h2>
Pollak does not appear to be afraid of offending traders in his quest to defend Base&#8217;s controversial token experiment. As part of an X post storm he has whipped up to defend the Base team&#8217;s actions, the blockchain developer <a href="https://x.com/jessepollak/status/1914338202728665332?t=iaGRzxjQ2B8iYPl1uEYp7g&amp;s=19">said</a> on Monday that creators, not traders, are the priority of the blockchain.

</ul>
&#8220;Trading is downstream of creativity. volume is downstream of creativity. growth is downstream of creativity. my #1 priority is growing creators and creativity onchain, everything else will take care of itself,&#8221; he wrote.
Unsurprisingly, the statement has sparked pushback. Reacting to Pollak&#8217;s statements, Alon Cohen, co-founder of popular Solana memecoin launchpad Pump.fun, <a href="https://x.com/a1lon9/status/1914421121350570333?t=rJiL3DWUeADfGudW0dlPew&amp;s=19">argued</a> that traders trumped creators and developers in crypto.
&#8220;If traders don&#8217;t see value, creators &amp; devs don&#8217;t eat and go elsewhere. so if you&#8217;re tokenizing anything, traders come first,&#8221; he wrote&nbsp;
But Pollak doubled down.
&#8220;I love traders, but our north star is helping creators and developers build their dreams &#8211; everything else is downstream of that,&#8221; he <a href="https://x.com/jessepollak/status/1914425838378045737?t=cunIFCj_qfuvGqmN6PN7TQ&amp;s=19">responded</a>.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">&#8216;Contentcoin&#8217;</h2>
Last week, Base&#8217;s official X account <a href="https://x.com/base/status/1912584945127813533?t=yI8bVEk4SdbwJNV81vB3iQ&amp;s=19">shared</a> an image with the caption &#8220;Base is for everyone,&#8221; following up a minute later with <a href="https://x.com/base/status/1912585069811863765?t=-XdA1q3YPLWPNsMGZFoucg&amp;s=19">another post</a> stating &#8220;coined it,&#8221; linking to Zora, an on-chain social network backed by Coinbase that tokenizes content, where users could purchase a token based on the post.
Unsurprisingly, many did. The token&#8217;s value quickly soared to $17 million. But just as speculators started to ride the high, the token quickly crashed 96% to around $720,000, leaving many holding the bag.&nbsp;
The crash came as early buyers <a href="https://basescan.org/address/0x099246ca997acf47ada682c9c60f9ed0954ad960">dumped</a> en masse as Base <a href="https://zora.co/coin/base:0x6977d841d7b013c9f45ea20c2d79d5380460a0d4?referrer=0x9652721d02b9db43f4311102820158abb4ecc95b">continued to create</a> new tokens, splitting attention and triggering confusion.

In the aftermath of the chaos, the Base team <a href="https://x.com/base/status/1912644784461869305?t=kF0RXbFUSjH6COoBwjR9kg&amp;s=19">said</a> that the token launches were part of an experiment to encourage people to put their content on-chain.&nbsp;
&#8220;Someone has to normalize putting all of our content onchain. and i&#8217;m not afraid for it to be us. why? because in the wake of the chaos, we&#8217;ll normalize the behavior and create a better future for creators,&#8221; Pollak <a href="https://x.com/jessepollak/status/1912608624872231131?t=3XjtP____-vR7R8DQAAwaQ&amp;s=19">said</a>, linking to a series of posts explaining how the tokens launched by Base differed from memecoins.
Pollak defined the so-called contentcoins as representing a single content with singular value and no expectations. But these arguments about intent did not stop many from bashing Base&#8217;s execution.&nbsp;
For example, Now Media founder Matthew Medved <a href="https://nftnow.com/features/base-content-coins-onchain-media-op-ed/">said</a> that Base&#8217;s approach hurt user trust.
&#8220;Base could&#8217;ve more obviously framed this as an open experiment. Instead, the post dropped without the proper context, and the ‘content coin' explanation came only after the crash. The stunt succeeded in capturing attention, but it came at the cost of trust. What could&#8217;ve been a meaningful test of media infrastructure ended up looking like just another rug pull,&#8221; he wrote.

Base Creator Says The Coinbase-Incubated Blockchain Is Prioritizing Creators Over Traders As Fallout Of 'Contentcoin' Debacle Continues

Maple syrup isn&#8217;t usually the first thing you think of when President Donald Trump&#8216;s tariffs are mentioned. However, the sweet, resinous goodness you&#8217;re used to slathering over your pancakes could be an unlikely victim of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44891073/donald-trumps-trade-war-jpmorgan-predicts-deals-higher-taxes-and-potential-recession-avoidance">global trade wars</a>.

In the U.S., Vermont, New York, Maine, and Wisconsin are producers, too. However, for all concerned, producing the sugary substance is truly an international affair. Impeding the business will land producers in a big sticky mess, with consumers liable to pick up the tab.

&#8220;Any kind of disruption with our cross-border enterprise, we feel it,&#8221; Jim Judd, a fourth-generation sugarer at Judd&#8217;s Wayeeses Farms in Morgan, Vermont told the <a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/trumps-tariff-canada-chine-maple-syrup-b2734146.html">U.K.'s Independent.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Chinese Equipment</h2>
Judd said that many of the stainless steel fixtures used to extract and boil the sap are sourced from China, while the packaging is often imported from Italy. The bulk of the other equipment used originates from Canada.
&#8220;It&#8217;s like the weather in New England. You wait five minutes, and it might change,&#8221; Allison Hope, executive director of the Vermont Maple Sugar Makers&#8217; Association, told The Independent. &#8220;Now it matters how Canada makes its equipment and gets its materials. &#8230; It&#8217;s hard for businesses to run on a growth mentality when there&#8217;s no sense of what the industry is going to look like in a year.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Explosive Growth</h2>
The maple syrup industry has enjoyed explosive growth over the past three decades. In the U.S. alone, production has increased from a total value of $34 million in 2000 to $171 million in 2022, according to<a href="https://countryfolks.com/the-maple-industry-how-will-it-change-going-forward/"> Country Folks</a>. However, climate change has been a big concern. &#8220;Most maple producers are concerned about their yield, concerned about their tree health,&#8221; Mark Cannella, associate professor and farm business management specialist at the University of Vermont, told the website.&nbsp;
The prospect of tariffs has added another layer of worry to manufacturers. &#8220;If something is going up 25% or 5%, whatever and you sell it at the same price you&#8217;ve been selling it at for the last five years, that is going to dent our pockets,&#8221; Kevin Keyes, co-owner of Dry Brook Sugar House in Salem, New York told<a href="https://www.cnn.com/2025/04/12/business/trump-tariffs-american-maple-syrup-farmers/index.html"> CNN</a>.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Smaller Farms Will Be Hardest Hit</h2>
Mapleland Farms, also in Salem, is one of the larger operations in the area, running up to 20,000 tap lines during sap collecting season, reports CNN. Equipment upgrades are an ongoing expense. While they benefit from economies of scale, co-owner David Campbell feels that smaller farms will feel the tariffs the hardest. New businesses will struggle to get off the ground, while established businesses will have to raise prices.
&#8220;It&#8217;s going to make it harder for production to grow with the cost of equipment and expansion going up unless there is a bigger increase in the price of a finished product. The consumer is going to get that,&#8221; Campbell told CNN.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">If You Bought Nvidia Stock 10 Years Ago</h2>
The company's stock traded at approximately $0.55 per share 10 years ago. If you had invested $10,000, you could have bought roughly 18,182 shares. Currently, shares trade at $101.43, meaning your investment's value could have grown to $1,844,182 from stock price appreciation alone. However, Nvidia also paid dividends during these 10 years.&nbsp;
Nvidia's dividend yield is currently 0.04%. Over the last 10 years, it has paid about $3.68 in dividends per share, which means you could have made $66,909 from dividends alone.&nbsp;
Summing up $1,844,182 and $66,909, we end up with the final value of your investment, which is $1,911,091.

Avantor Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVTR#NYSE">AVTR</a>) on Friday reported adjusted EPS of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">23 cents in line with consensus</a>.
The life science tools company reported sales of $1.58 billion, missing the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/n45003264/avantor-reports-first-quarter-2025-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus of $1.61 billion</a>.
Sales&nbsp;fell 6% compared to the first quarter of 2024. Foreign currency translation had a negative impact of 1%, resulting in a sales decline of 2% on an organic basis.
Laboratory Solutions sales were $1.07 billion, a reported decrease of 8%. Sales decreased by 3% organically.
Bioscience Production sales were $516.4 million, a reported decrease of 1%, flat on an organic basis.
&#8220;While earnings and margin performance were in line with our plan, Lab Solutions revenue was impacted by reduced demand – particularly in our Education and Government end market &#8211; following recent policy changes,&#8221; said Michael Stubblefield, president and CEO.
&#8220;We are updating our full-year outlook to reflect ongoing funding and policy-related headwinds. While we are not satisfied with our current growth trajectory, we are implementing a comprehensive strategy to strengthen our Lab Solutions segment and are committed to moving with urgency to improve performance across the business,&#8221; Stubblefield added.

Adjusted EBITDA was $269.5 million, and Adjusted EBITDA margin was 17.0%.

Avantor announced significant actions across the business to accelerate growth and enhance its cost structure, increasing the cost transformation target to $400 million in gross run-rate savings by the end of 2027.
On Friday, Avantor announced that Stubblefield intends to step down as director, president, and CEO. The Board has initiated a search process to identify the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/n45003279/avantor-announces-ceo-transition" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">company&#8217;s next CEO</a>.
William Blair analyst Matt Larew writes, &#8220;While we acknowledge that Avantor has a possible path to outperformance as end-markets continue to return and more of the now $400 million in targeted cost savings take hold, we think the company&#8217;s below-peer growth and margin profile make the discount to peers warranted at this time.&#8221;
Larew keeps the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AVTR/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Market Perform rating</a>.
Price Action: AVTR stock is down 19.6% at $12.44 at last check Friday.
