Next-Gen Advisor with More Than $120 Million in Assets Joins Ameriprise Financial for Technology and Growth Opportunities
Colin Gates joins The Atlantic Group, a growing $2 billion Ameriprise practice led by next-generation advisors in Boca Raton, Fla.
MINNEAPOLIS - September 24, 2026 -Financial advisor Colin Gates, CPWA(R) recently joined the branch channel of Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (NYSE:AMP) from Merrill Lynch,Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc. where he managed more than $120 million in client assets. Gates has joined The Atlantic Group, a well-established Ameriprise financial advisory practice led by founding partners and next-generation advisors Andrew Lerner, APMA(TM), AWMA(TM), CFP, ChFC(R), and Logan Shalmi APMA(TM) in Boca Raton, Fla.
As Gates evaluated the next chapter of his business, he prioritized finding a firm and team aligned with his long-term vision for clients and growth. The opportunity to join The Atlantic Group, a rapidly growing Ameriprise team led by next-generation financial advisors who share his vision for long-term growth, made the decision especially compelling.
"Ameriprise immediately stood out because of its commitment to helping advisors grow and the investments it continues to make in technology, planning capabilities and operational support," said Gates. "Those resources will help me deliver an even better experience for clients while creating greater efficiencies in my practice. Combined with the opportunity to join The Atlantic Group, a team that's building for the future and shares my growth-minded approach, it became clear that Ameriprise was the right fit for the next chapter of my business."
Gates and Shalmi have known each other for years, having attended high school together. That longstanding relationship, combined with a shared philosophy around client service and practice management, made the move a natural fit.
"As I explored different options, I kept coming back to the combination of Ameriprise and The Atlantic Group," said Gates. "Logan, Andrew and the team have built an impressive business with a collaborative culture and a clear vision for where they're headed. The opportunity to be part of that environment while continuing to elevate the client experience with the tools, resources and support of Ameriprise was especially appealing."
Since transitioning from Oppenheimer to Ameriprise in October 2025, The Atlantic Group has continued to build significant momentum, adding three financial advisors, three support staff members and more than $400 million in client assets. Today, the practice includes 12 financial advisors and 10 support staff members who collectively manage approximately $2 billion in client assets.
The team is supported locally by Ameriprise Branch Manager Drew Granauro, Ameriprise Complex Director Daniel Landrau and Ameriprise Regional Vice President Michael Rearden.
Ameriprise has continued to attract experienced, productive financial advisors, with approximately 1,700 joining the firm in the last 5 years.1 To find out why experienced financial advisors are joining Ameriprise, visit ameriprise.com/why.

Netflix Announces Release Date of 'The Empress' Third and Final Season
24 September 2026
The Empress Season 3, premiering November 12, exclusively on Netflix worldwide.
The imperial marriage is on thin ice. Franz returns from the war against Napoleon a scarred man, while Elisabeth suffers greatly in health under the tension at court and rejection by her husband. When Franz takes refuge in an affair, not only their marriage but also Elisabeth's life is at stake.
On her first major journey faraway, Elisabeth suddenly makes an acquaintance that will forever change her life, and also the fate of Habsburg. On November 12, the third and final season of the award-winning series The Empress launches on Netflix.
Set against opulent backdrops between Vienna, Hungary, Mexico, and Prussia, the series The Empress paints a complex portrait of the protagonists at court. At the center is Elisabeth's impressive journey: she transforms from an unconventional girl into an emancipated woman who permanently influences the fate of Europe. The series about the extraordinary Empress Elisabeth has thrilled fans all over the world since its release and was awarded "Best Drama Series" at the 51st International Emmy(R) Awards in 2023.
Katharina Eyssen once again serves as showrunner for the third season of the hit series, sharing creative responsibility with executive producer Robert Eyssen. Sommerhaus Serien GmbH, led by executive producers Jochen Laube and Fabian Maubach, is responsible for the production. Scarlett Lacey returns as executive producer, and Lars Gmehling is co-executive producer. Directed by Florian Cossen and Julia Langhof. Filming took place in Bavaria, the Czech Republic, and Spain.
About The Empress Season 3
After the devastating Sardinian War, Emperor Franz (Philip Froissant) returns a traumatized man. The guilt of having lost thousands of young men on the battlefield weighs heavily on him. Elisabeth (Devrim Lingnau Islamoglu) tries to stand by him -- she fights passionately for her marriage while at the same time advocating for what would now be right for the empire -- yet in vain. While Franz's infidelity further shakes the marriage, resistance at court and her own health force Elisabeth to leave Vienna and set off to a distant island to recover.
By chance, the Empress meets the leader of the Hungarian revolution, Count Andrassy (Dejan Bucin), on her journey. Their encounter is immediately marked by strong intellectual and physical attraction. Almost simultaneously, Franz's brother Maximilian (Johannes Nussbaum) sets off on a great adventure with his wife Marie (Josephine Thiesen): he is to ascend the imperial throne in far-off Mexico. In the end, Elisabeth must decide: follow her heart unconditionally, or be a sincere empress to her people.
Recap: Looking back at Seasons 1 & 2
Season 1: The Storming of the Hofburg. After the romantic wedding of free-spirited Elisabeth and Emperor Franz Joseph, life at court quickly becomes a golden cage for Elisabeth: caught between strict court protocol and pressure from her mother-in-law Sophie, Elisabeth fights for her self-determination. When unrest breaks out among the people, the pregnant empress bravely confronts the angry crowd and wins their hearts.
Season 2: Power Struggles and the Fires of War. The pressure for a male heir, impending wars, and the painful loss of their child put the young marriage to a severe test. As the political situation continues to escalate, Elisabeth learns to use her political voice.

Holland & Hart Represents CleanSpark on $6.6B Sandersville Data Center Campus Construction
Holland & Hart advised CleanSpark, Inc., a market-leading data center developer, on the buildout of its Sandersville, Georgia campus--the infrastructure behind a 20-year lease with a leading global technology company that represents approximately $6.6 billion in contracted revenue for CleanSpark.
The firm serves as construction counsel to CleanSpark, drafting and structuring the agreementsrequired to deliver the build-to-suit campus to the tenant's unique specifications.
Project Overview
The Sandersville campus is a large-scale, build-to-suit data center in Washington County, Georgia, designed to support high-density compute workloads for a single high-investment-grade tenant.
Under a 20-year triple-net lease announced in July 2026, CleanSpark will deliver 175 MW of critical IT load, with initial deliveries expected in the fourth quarter of 2027. This is a schedule tied to specific financing, construction, and delivery milestones.
Our team moved quickly to prepare contract documents and advise CleanSpark during the fast-paced negotiations, drawing on deep familiarity with the data center sector and the technical and commercial realities of high-density compute construction. That industry fluency, understanding how power capacity, phased delivery, and demanding tenant specifications translate into enforceable contract terms, allowed us to protect CleanSpark's interests while maintaining the velocity the transaction demanded.
Significance
Sandersville is one of the most significant single-tenant data center developments announced in 2026.
Since launching its Sandersville operations in 2022, CleanSpark has been a sustained presence in the local community, supporting job stability, tax revenue, and long-term economic activity throughout the region.
For more information, please see CleanSpark's press release.
The Holland & Hart team included Stephen Davis, Courtney Poe, Greg Gilbert, and Michael Wadley.

Forbes Unveils The 250 Greatest Builders In American History, Recognizing Visionaries Who Helped Build Modern America
NEW YORK (September 24, 2026) - Forbes today unveiled The Greatest American Builders list, recognizing 250 of the visionaries whose ideas, companies and innovations helped build modern America, as part of its Forbes 250 initiative.
From the Empire State Building to the data centers powering the artificial intelligence revolution, building has long been at the heart of the American Dream.However, America's builders aren't limited to those who shaped its physical landscape. Forbes' new list takes a broader view of what it means to build, recognizing the architects, developers and construction leaders who transformed America's skylines alongside the entrepreneurs, investors and innovators who helped create the financial, technological, energy, healthcare and transportation infrastructure that powers the country.
The list reflects more than two centuries of American ingenuity and ambition while spotlighting the leaders whose impact continues to shape the country today.
"For 250 years, America has been shaped by people with the ambition to build something bigger: the companies, industries, technologies and infrastructure that have fundamentally changed how we live and work," said Alex Knapp, senior editor, Forbes. "The Greatest American Builders list celebrates the visionaries who turned bold ideas into an enduring legacy, while reminding us that building America has never been limited to bricks and mortar. It's about creating what comes next."
Among those recognized are Jeff Bezos, who built Amazon into a global commerce and logistics powerhouse and Amazon Web Services into a foundational piece of the digital economy; Elon Musk, whose Tesla helped accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles and whose SpaceX has transformed commercial spaceflight; Jensen Huang, whose Nvidia chips have become critical infrastructure for the artificial intelligence era; and Judy Faulkner, who built Epic Systems into one of the most important technology platforms underpinning American healthcare.
The list also recognizes leaders who transformed the physical landscape of the country, including Related Companies founder Stephen Ross, master-planned community pioneer Donald Bren, ABC Supply cofounder Diane Hendricks and Clayco founder Bob Clark; financial innovators including Charles Schwab, Larry Fink, Stephen Schwarzman and Thomas Peterffy; and business builders including Bill Gates, Howard Schultz, Reed Hastings, Marc Andreessen and others whose companies and ideas fundamentally changed American lives.
The top 10 living honorees include:
* Jeff Bezos, Founder & Executive Chairman, Amazon / Blue Origin
* Elon Musk, CEO & Chief Engineer, Tesla / SpaceX / xAI
* Warren Buffett, Chairman & CEO, Berkshire Hathaway
* Charles Schwab, Founder & Co-Chairman, Charles Schwab Corp
* Arthur Blank, Co-founder, The Home Depot
* Jensen Huang, Co-founder, President & CEO, NVIDIA
* Stephen Ross, Founder & Chairman, Related Companies
* Judy Faulkner, Founder & CEO, Epic Systems
* Larry Fink, Co-founder, Chairman & CEO, BlackRock
* Bill Gates, Co-founder, Microsoft
The Greatest American Builders list examines impact through a distinctly Forbes lens: entrepreneurship, innovation, scale and enduring influence. Collectively, the 250 honorees have built companies, industries, infrastructure and ideas that have changed how Americans invest, communicate, travel, shop, receive healthcare, consume energy and experience their communities.
The list also captures the evolution of American enterprise. The railroads, factories, financial institutions and skyscrapers that powered earlier eras of growth now sit alongside cloud computing, artificial intelligence, renewable energy, data centers and commercial space exploration -- demonstrating how the act of "building America" continues to evolve.
The Forbes 250: The Greatest American Builders list appears in Forbes' October/November 2026 issue, and the full list is available at: (https://www.forbes.com/sites/alexknapp/2026/09/24/forbes-250-americas-most-successful-living-builders/)
