From Shelter to Spotlight: SATELLAI Celebrates Adoptable Dogs at the Fetch Pet Gala Featuring Cyndi Lauper, Ariana DeBose, Darren Criss & Bernadette Peters

NEW YORK, Nov. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The 2026 Fetch Pet Gala, hosted by Fetch Pet Insurance at The Carlyle Hotel in New York City, brought together pet industry leaders, animal welfare advocates, and celebrity guests for an evening of performance and purpose. SATELLAI, an AI-powered pet wellbeing company building technology to help people better understand and care for their pets, returned as a sponsor of the annual fundraiser, which raised over $750,000 to benefit four nonprofit organizations: Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, Broadway Barks, Wags & Walks and North Shore Animal League America.

The 2nd Annual Fetch Pet Gala, hosted by Fetch Pet Insurance, featured performances by Tony and Academy Award winners Bernadette Peters, Darren Criss, Ariana DeBose, and a surprise performance by Cyndi Lauper to raise funds for pets in need. "The incredible star power of the Fetch Pet Gala is how we've been able to raise over $1.2 million in just two years for organizations that are literally saving lives and delivering meaningful impact for pets in need," said Paul Guyardo, President & CEO of Fetch Pet Insurance.

"It was rewarding to see SATELLAI Collar Go featured on adoptable dogs at this year's Fetch Pet Gala," said Mark Mao, Founder and CEO of SATELLAI. "The event brings the pet community together around something that matters to us — the human-animal bond — while helping raise awareness and support for pets in need. We built SATELLAI to help pet parents understand and care for their companions, not simply track them. We're proud to extend that mission beyond the gala by providing Collar Go devices to families adopting dogs from North Shore Animal League America, helping them stay connected to their dogs as they settle into their new homes."

Prior to the Fetch Pet Gala, SATELLAI and Fetch Pet Insurance sponsored a professional photoshoot by Stronger Shot at North Shore Animal League America. Stronger Shot is a nationwide initiative dedicated to helping shelter pets find loving homes through the power of professional photography and storytelling. 

"We were thrilled to work alongside Fetch Pet Insurance and SATELLAI to give these deserving shelter dogs a Stronger Shot at finding a home," said Adam Goldberg, founder of Stronger Shot. "Our mission is to help people see shelter pets for who they really are, beyond their circumstances. Seeing these dogs go from a shelter photo session to the Fetch Pet Gala's Green Carpet of such an incredible event was a perfect example of what can happen when brands come together to make pet adoption more visible, exciting, and impactful."

To celebrate National Adopt a Dog Month, SATELLAI is giving five lucky pet parents who adopt a dog from North Shore Animal League America a complimentary SATELLAI Collar Go. Learn more about how to adopt from North Shore Animal League America here.

NINGBO, China, Nov. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The "2026 Global Mayors Dialogue • Ningbo" is being held in Ningbo, Zhejiang province, from Nov. 2 to 5. Mayors and mayoral representatives from 20 cities in 15 countries and regions across five continents, along with representatives of international organizations and enterprises, have gathered in the city to explore opportunities for openness and deepen practical cooperation.

Participants included Wayne Brown, mayor of Auckland, New Zealand; Enrico Ricci, a representative of the mayor of Florence, Italy; Ahmed Wazeery, secretary-general of Suez Governorate, Egypt; and the mayors of three cities in Lebanon. Representatives of international organizations, including the United Nations Global Compact China and the BRICS New Development Bank, also attended.

Under the theme "Openness and Connectivity for Shared Opportunities," the event features a main mayoral dialogue, two scenario dialogues, and three activities focused on civilizational exchange and mutual learning. During the event, guests visited Ningbo-Zhoushan Port, the world's largest port by throughput, as well as Ningbo Yaji Logistics Co., Ltd., Ningbo PIA Automation Holding Corp., Peacebird Group, Dongqian Lake and the Old Bund. At the forefront of intelligent port logistics and in smart workshops where embodied robots are produced, they explored how cities can achieve high-level openness and identify future opportunities.

At the main venue, 14 cooperation projects were signed in areas including friendly exchanges, economic and trade cooperation, science and technology education, and cultural tourism. They included the establishment of friendly exchange relations between Yuyao City in Zhejiang and Errachidia, Morocco, and between Yinzhou District of Ningbo and the Canton of Saint-Étienne-du-Rouvray, France. The "Ningbo Consensus on Collaborative Development" was also released, calling on cities to uphold openness and connectivity, deepen industrial collaboration, promote people-to-people ties, and work together to maintain the stability and smooth flow of industrial and supply chains.

Joachim Moyse, vice president of the Rouen Metropolitan Area and mayor of the Canton of Saint-Étienne-du-Rouvray, France, said: "When the world makes it easy for people to lose hope, we must sit down together all the more and jointly build a framework for peace. Because peace is the great prerequisite for all cooperation." He also wanted to take a "gift" home from Ningbo: the city's broad vision of caring for all social strata and building the city around people's needs. Moyse said this is precisely the "Chinese experience" he wants to bring back to France and share with his compatriots.

Located in eastern Zhejiang, Ningbo is home to Ningbo-Zhoushan Port, the world's largest port. It is also an international gateway for openness and an advanced manufacturing base, long known by the saying, "Books preserve the past and present, and the port connects the world." The event features a seven-section exhibition, "Ningbo and the World: Global Chinese Culture with Overseas Ningbo Companies," showcasing Ningbo's achievements in promoting two-way economic and trade connectivity and people-to-people ties, with culture as the bond, enterprises as the mainstay and the port as the foundation. At the Night of Ningbo event, Ningbo's Siming Library and classic books selected by visitors are placed together in the Tianyi Pavilion, one of the world's three oldest family libraries, bearing witness to friendships between cities that span mountains and seas.
