This do-it-all SUV of an e-bike goes wherever you want to pedal, with whatever load you want to take therePublished August 5, 2026 11:49AMOver the past decade or so, e-bikes have evolved in welcome ways, with specialist models designed for tackling mountainous trails, touring long distances, and hauling cargo across town. But there was still something missing: a single bike that could do all three. Enter the new Amflow TL Carbon: a two-wheeled e-SUV that rolls all of these capabilities into one super-versatile package. The Amflow TL Carbon (Photo: Amflow) Amflow is a pioneer of technical innovation, and it shows…

Published August 5, 2026 11:01AMUnder a full moon, after more than 20 straight hours of running, Roman Trach lifts his arms and sways back and forth, like a boxer who’s just gone 15 rounds in a heavyweight fight. “I can’t believe this, dude,” he says, shaking his head. “I want to cry so bad.”Trach’s body doesn’t let him squeeze out the tears. He’s just run 100.2 miles to complete the Western States Endurance Run, the oldest, most prestigious ultramarathon in the U.S., and his body is broken, torn, confused. He has dark hollows under his eyes. His legs are trembling.…

AI is making it harder for companies like Apple to keep up with the outside researchers hunting for bugs in their software. The company capped how many bug submissions researchers can have open at once, responding to a flood of what Apple itself calls “slop,” low-quality reports where AI tools hallucinate security risks that don’t actually exist. Bynario, a seven-person Italian cybersecurity startup team, found more than 50 bugs in the latest version of macOS in just three weeks, according to the Financial Times. One was serious enough that it should have been impossible to miss: a flaw that could…

Along the Lake Superior coast near Munising, you’ll find everything from inland hikes through lush woods to paddling trips beneath multi-colored cliffs. And wherever you go, the U.P. invites you to embrace your wild side at whatever pace you choose. Pictured…

Published August 5, 2026 03:03AMThe outdoor industry gets a lot right. Its commitment to public lands is fierce. Sustainability initiatives are woven into brand DNA. Conservation efforts are backed by real dollars and advocacy. The industry has rallied around climate action and built a culture that genuinely cares about the planet and the wild places we all cherish.But here’s what’s glaringly absent from that picture: women over 50. Flip through any outdoor brand’s Instagram feed. Walk into any brick-and-mortar store and study the larger-than-life images on the walls. Scan the ambassador rosters of major gear companies. You’ll see diverse faces,…

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways Companies that say they’re ready to grow are usually just ready to spend — and scaling a weak strategic foundation only accelerates its weaknesses. Real growth comes from six strategic moves, not bigger budgets: mapping the true customer journey, sharpening personas, investing in advocacy, de-risking positioning, protecting differentiators and enforcing trade-offs. Your business is ready for growth. You are past the launch phase. You have hired your first employees. You are ready to grow monthly revenue. But how? What are the next steps with the best ROI for the right…

Key Takeaways Universities are rapidly rolling out new AI degrees, concentrations and requirements. Professors are developing AI courses to keep up with demand, from introductory to interdisciplinary options. The new offerings show that AI literacy is becoming a baseline expectation for graduates. College students may boo graduation speakers who positively mention AI, but AI classrooms are overflowing. Everyone from business students to music majors now want to learn how to work with the machines that could impact their careers. According to a recent report from the Associated Press, hiring has cooled for entry-level software developers as companies hand off more…

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways Define the guest experience, then build technology around that vision. Data alone can’t determine what makes a great restaurant; you have to combine analytics with authenticity. Businesses that own the customer relationship can create more meaningful experiences. Before a customer places an order, the restaurant already knows it’s their 100th visit. A free cookie is waiting for them. “That’s digital hospitality,” Deborah Matteliano, Global Head of Restaurants at Amazon Web Services (AWS), says. “It’s using technology to make somebody feel seen, understood and special.” For Matteliano, that moment has nothing…

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways The biggest gap between managers and founders isn’t credentials or capital — it’s a willingness to act on early signals, own outcomes over activity and make room for other people’s best ideas. Asking “what would I do if this were my company?” reframes every leadership decision: it moves you from hesitation to ownership, from managing tasks to driving outcomes and from controlling ideas to unlocking them across the team. A senior executive I know once pulled me aside after a board meeting, frustrated. He had just hired a senior executive…

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways The exhaustion many Black women leaders feel doesn’t match their workload because they’re paying a hidden three-part leadership tax: the performative tax of managing perception, the weight of representation and the navigation tax of constantly reading the room. Reclaiming energy starts with visibility, not overhaul — stop confusing presence with influence, protect recovery like a meeting, make one strategic cut and redirect that energy toward what actually moves you forward. For a long time, I thought I was tired because I was working too much. That seemed like the obvious…
