Jessica Contreras Aims to Spark Tucson’s AI Revolution

Published

on

Tucson, Arizona, 28th May 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, QUICK LOOK: Tucson native Jessica Contreras is turning her hometown into the next AI hotspot by teaming up with the University of Arizona through Vanport Technologies—blending academic brainpower and real-world data to tackle flood mapping and ignite a regional tech revolution.

Jessica CEO of Vanport Tech

Jessica Contreras, a proud Tucson native, is on a mission to put her hometown on the map as a  rising hub for artificial intelligence innovation. Through her newly launched venture, Vanport  Technologies, Contreras is combining cutting-edge AI with the academic strength of the  University of Arizona  to create smarter, more effective AI solutions — starting with  floodplain mapping.  

Contreras’ vision goes beyond improving environmental prediction models. By partnering with  the University of Arizona, she hopes to plant the seeds of a thriving technology ecosystem in Tucson — one  that mirrors the innovation and economic growth seen in Silicon Valley. Her plan is simple yet  powerful: leverage the expertise of faculty and researchers while tapping into the fresh, bright minds of the university’s student body to develop AI solutions that address real-world  challenges.  

“AI is evolving fast, but the key to making it smarter and more impactful lies in blending  academic research with practical experience,” Contreras explains. “By working with the  University of Arizona, we’re creating AI that doesn’t just calculate — it learns from experts and  adapts to real-world conditions.”  

Vanport Technologies’ first major project — improving floodplain mapping — showcases this  innovative approach. By integrating scientific data with AI systems that draw on the University of Arizona research,  the company’s models go beyond standard rainfall-based predictions. Instead, they analyze  factors like soil absorption, erosion, and infrastructure vulnerabilities to offer more precise,  actionable insights that can help protect Tucson’s communities from flooding risks.  

But Contreras’ ambitions extend much further. She envisions Tucson evolving into a hotbed of  AI innovation, where students, researchers, and industry leaders collaborate to develop  world-changing solutions. “If we can cultivate an ecosystem where AI taps directly into higher  education’s wealth of knowledge, Tucson can become a true leader in AI development,” she  says.  

With her roots firmly planted in Tucson, Contreras’ venture is as much about giving back to her  community as it is about technological progress. By creating opportunities for students and  collaborating with academic leaders, Vanport Technologies is pioneering a new model for AI  development — one that blends learning, technology, and practical experience to build a  smarter, safer, and more innovative future for all.

CROSS Public Sale Concludes – A Bold Experiment in Tokenomics Democracy
Opengame Foundation Completes Public Sale of CROSS Token, Burns Unsold Supply to Ensure Transparency and Value Stability

Zug, Switzerland, 28th May 2025Opengame Foundation (OGF), the non-profit organization behind the open blockchain gaming platform CROSS, has officially concluded its public token sale for the CROSS utility token.

The public sale, which ran for one week starting May 15, drew attention across the Web3 industry for its unique commitment to fairness and transparency. Tokens were offered at a fixed price of $0.10, the same as in the private sale, ensuring that all participants—whether early backers or new supporters—had access under identical conditions.

In total, 96 million CROSS tokens, representing 9.6% of the platform’s total supply of 1 billion, were made available during the public sale on a first-come, first-served basis. Approximately 92% of the allocation was sold by the end of the sale period. The remaining unsold tokens will be permanently burned—a move designed to reinforce both the integrity of the token’s value and the foundation’s long-term commitment to transparency.

Henry Chang, CEO of NEXUS and key contributor to the CROSS ecosystem, described the initiative as “an unprecedented experiment.” In a post on X (formerly Twitter), he wrote:

“Another dot, placed. We’ve now completed an unprecedented experiment—offering the same price to private and public investors, including the founder and team ourselves. I appreciate the support and investment from all who believed in us.

Time will reveal how this unfolds. As we head toward the next milestone, TGE, we’ll keep doing what we’ve always done: Build—so that one day, we can connect the dots backward.”

The Opengame Foundation plans to distribute CROSS tokens to public sale participants in accordance with the TGE timeline. Together with NEXUS, it will accelerate the growth of the CROSS ecosystem, bringing more developers and players into the open blockchain gaming space.
