- Named a CES 2026 Innovation Award Honoree, Greneta's new engine transforms massive industrial 3D assets into streamable formats for Digital Twins and Physical AI
- Live demonstrations available at Eureka Park, Korea Pavilion (Booth #62501)
LAS VEGAS, Dec. 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- As industries race to adopt spatial computing and Physical AI, they face a critical infrastructure bottleneck: high-fidelity 3D assets are simply too heavy to stream efficiently. Greneta, a deep-tech startup specializing in 3D infrastructure, today announced the global launch of Greneta Optimizer 2.0 at CES 2026. This solution reduces 3D data size by up to 99.6% while preserving the geometric precision required for industrial and medical applications.
While traditional compression tools often degrade visual quality—acting like the "MP3 of 3D"—Greneta's solution maintains professional-grade fidelity. This technological achievement has been recognized by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA), which named Greneta a CES® 2026 Innovation Award Honoree in the Content & Entertainment category.
Bridging the Gap for the Industrial Metaverse
"The era of waiting for 3D files to load is over," said Tae Woong Kim, CEO of Greneta. "Whether it is a digital twin of a factory or a training simulation for robotics, data weight is the enemy of scale. Optimizer 2.0 removes that friction instantly."
Key capabilities
- Extreme Optimization: Compressing Gigabyte-scale CAD and LiDAR scans into Megabytes in seconds, enabling real-time streaming on mobile XR devices.
- AI-Driven Restoration: Automatically repairing mesh errors and holes common in 3D scans, a critical feature for establishing 'Physical AI' environments.
- Enterprise Compatibility: Seamless integration with major platforms including Unreal Engine, Unity, and NVIDIA Omniverse via plugin architecture.

On her first day as ECW Director, Maysa Jalbout visits Lebanon to reaffirm ECW's commitment to the country's children, announce new emergency funding and mobilise urgent international support.
BEIRUT, April 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Education Cannot Wait (ECW) today reaffirmed their strong partnership with Lebanon's Ministry of Education and Higher Education (MEHE) to protect the right to education for children impacted by the rapidly escalating crisis in Lebanon.
During her first official mission as Director of ECW, Maysa Jalbout met with H.E. Minister Rima Karami, alongside the Inter-Agency Support Group (IASG) Education Sector co-leads UNICEF and Save the Children and civil society partners, to assess urgent needs and coordinate a swift, collective response to the crisis.
Lebanon is facing a severe humanitarian situation, with over one million people displaced and more than 250,000 children across the public school system experiencing disruption to their education. This latest escalation compounds years of overlapping crises including– economic collapse, the Beirut port explosion and the current escalation of regional conflict.
As part of this joint effort, ECW is launching an immediate emergency response that will focus on the areas most affected by the escalation of hostilities, ensuring safe access to learning, psychosocial support and protection services for the most vulnerable children.
In parallel, ECW will initiate the development of a new multi-year investment, expected to begin within the next six months, aimed at strengthening the resilience of Lebanon's education system and supporting sustainable learning outcomes.
Together, these investments are expected to reach more than 150,000 crisis-affected children and adolescents, prioritising those most at risk of exclusion.
"Education Cannot Wait – the global fund for education in crises – stands with the children of Lebanon. Education during crises is essential to children's mental health, protection and future. With our partners, we will do everything we can to help 150,000 children resume their learning," said Maysa Jalbout, Director of ECW. "The needs are far greater than any single actor can meet. While many donors continue providing multi-year support for children's access to quality and inclusive education in Lebanon, the gaps remain significant and require urgent additional support to reach all children."
H.E. Minister Rima Karami underscored the urgency of the moment and the need for a new way of working.
"Lebanon has carried the weight of successive crises for over many decades and today we are once again called to protect our children and our future. This crisis is not only creating new needs – it is threatening the very stability that the Lebanese people have sacrificed so much to maintain. We must act collectively, and we must act differently. Our partnership with Education Cannot Wait reflects this commitment, and we call on the international community to stand with us in scaling this effort," said the Minister of Education and Higher Education.
The new ECW-supported response will be guided by the following key priorities:
- Localisation and national ownership, with a strong commitment to channelling significant resources through local actors and partners.
- Equity and inclusion, ensuring equitable access to education for all children, with a particular focus on girls, children with disabilities and those most marginalised.
- Learning continuity and quality, supporting both immediate access and improved learning outcomes over time.
- Well-being and protection, integrating mental health and psychosocial support into education responses.
- Flexibility and adaptability, enabling rapid adjustment to evolving needs on the ground.
The initiative also presents a critical opportunity for additional partners to step forward. ECW and MEHE are calling on donor governments, philanthropic organisations, and the private sector to match and scale this effort, ensuring that the response meets the full scope of needs.
Notes to Editors
- ECW's investments to date in Lebanon total US$25.8 million, reaching 826,000 crisis-affected children and adolescents with access to safe, inclusive and quality education – including those displaced by the escalating regional conflict.

ABOUT EDUCATION CANNOT WAIT
Education Cannot Wait (ECW) is the global fund for education in crises. The Fund provides rapid, flexible funding to locally led education responses that protect learning for refugee, internally displaced and other children, while strengthening systems to sustain learning and resilience in fragile and conflict-affected contexts. ECW works with governments, public and private funders, UN agencies, civil society organisations, and other humanitarian and development aid actors so that no child is left behind.
As global crises intensify and the education financing gap widens, ECW calls on public and private sector partners to scale up investments so millions more crisis-affected girls and boys can learn and rebuild their futures.
