Accuray Announces First CyberKnife® Systems in Africa, Providing a New Option and Hope for Potentially Life-Saving Radiation Treatments for More Cancer Patients

World’s Only Robotic Radiation Therapy Device Delivers Extremely Precise Treatments in Just 1 to 5 Out-Patient Sessions

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Sept. 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Accuray Incorporated (NASDAQ: ARAY) announced today the company is expanding its global footprint with the introduction of its CyberKnife® platform in Africa, making it possible for more patients to obtain access to the extremely precise stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) treatments the system delivers. The Children’s Cancer Hospital 57357 (Hospital 57357) medical care team is the first in Egypt and Africa to treat patients using the system, while the Kenyatta University Teaching, Referral & Research Hospital (KUTRRH) is the second in Africa and first in Kenya to acquire the system.

The number of new cancer cases diagnosed annually in Egypt and Kenya is anticipated to increase by approximately 75% and 126%, respectively, between 2020 and 20401. Innovative treatment options – such as the CyberKnife platform – can effectively treat certain neurologic conditions and a wide range of tumor types throughout the body, and at various stages of disease, while minimizing the impact of the treatment on a patient’s life.

“Our partnerships with the Children’s Cancer Hospital 57357 and Kenyatta University Teaching, Referral & Research Hospital teams directly aligns with our vision, and their goal, to expand all patient access to the most advanced radiation therapy treatments and to improve healthcare equity in areas where historically these treatments have not been an option,” said Suzanne Winter, president and CEO of Accuray. “We are proud that such esteemed organizations have selected the CyberKnife System to enhance the quality of care they provide their patients. The system will provide them with the tools they need to offer more patients extremely precise, powerful treatments that enable them to get back to living their lives, faster.”

The entire CyberKnife procedure is typically completed in just 1 to 5 out-patient sessions, providing a shorter overall course of treatment compared to conventional radiation therapy which typically takes 30-40 sessions. The condensed treatment schedule causes less disruption of patients’ daily lives and enables those people who are unable to travel a month or more for care to receive radiation therapy treatments delivered with sub-millimeter precision and accuracy.

Improving Patient Outcomes in Egypt
Hospital 57357 continues its legacy of innovation with the installation and treatment of the first patients in Egypt and Africa using the CyberKnife System. The radiation treatment delivered with the system is a non-invasive, non-surgical, typically pain-free outpatient procedure that does not require incisions or general anesthesia. Most patients will not require hospitalization or experience a long recovery period following the treatment procedure.

“At Children’s Cancer Hospital 57357, patients and their families are at the center of everything we do. We are proud to be the first hospital in Egypt and Africa to offer our patients treatment with the CyberKnife System, an innovative radiation therapy delivery technology we believe will enable us to improve patients’ outcomes and increase overall survival rates,” said Mohamed Saad Zaghloul, M.D., head of the radiation oncology department, Children’s Cancer Hospital 57357. “The system is designed to treat tumors throughout the body and provides us with an alternative to surgery for patients who have inoperable or surgically complex tumours, expanding the number of patients we can help.”

Dr. Zaghloul continued, “Importantly, we can decrease the number of radiation sessions needed to between 1 and 5, without sacrificing the precision of the treatment we deliver. This is a significant benefit for our patients who want to be able to get back to spending time with their families and participating in the daily activities that other children their age enjoy.”

Expanding Access to Advanced Cancer Care in Kenya
KUTRRH is a leading Public National Referral Hospital dedicated to enhancing the health and well-being of Kenyans and global citizens through provision of patient-centered and evidence-based healthcare. The CyberKnife® System will provide their team with the tools they need to provide optimal treatments for people diagnosed with cancer, benign tumors or certain neurologic disorders. The system was designed to provide clinicians with the speed required for workflow efficiency and the ability to deliver treatments more quickly – in as little as 15 minutes – while maintaining the precision and accuracy required for SRS and SBRT.

“In Kenya, cancer is a public health concern and too few people who would benefit from radiation therapy treatments are receiving care. For our region and our country, we believe the CyberKnife System will revolutionize cancer care,” said Prof. Olive Mugenda Ph.D., MGH Chairperson, Kenyatta University Teaching, Referral & Research Hospital.

Continued Prof. Mugenda, “The Cyberknife System has been one of the reason Kenyans have been travelling abroad for treatment. Having this system in Kenya, will not only improve the quality of life but also reverse outbound medical tourism.”

Jos. Hansen (East Africa) Ltd. is a leading distributor of trusted and reliable healthcare equipment and is the exclusive partner for the Accuray CyberKnife and TomoTherapy® platforms, including the next-generation Radixact® System, in Kenya. Jos. Hansen has a long-term relationship with the KUTRRH team and consulted with them as they evaluated radiation therapy devices and selected the CyberKnife S7™ System.

Eidosmedia faz parceria com a Sophi.io para automação da impressão alimentada por IA

A parceria integra a tecnologia de IA da Sophi.io na plataforma editorial da Eidosmedia, para automação de laydown de impressão integrada com ML para os clientes da Eidosmedia

TORONTO, Sept. 29, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — A Eidosmedia, desenvolvedora de soluções de publicação digital para grupos de mídia de notícias de todo o mundo, fechou uma parceria com a Sophi.io, uma plataforma de automação, otimização e previsão alimentada por IA desenvolvida pela The Globe and Mail, para automação de laydown de impressão contínua para os clientes da Eidosmedia.

A solução reduz o tempo do processo de layout da página impressa de horas para apenas minutos, sem o uso de modelos. Os editores podem aprimorar drasticamente a produtividade e reduzir custos, tudo dentro da plataforma Méthode usada atualmente.

“A complexidade dos layouts das páginas impressas até agora tem sido um desafio para a fácil automação que acelera a publicação de formatos online”, disse Marco Cetola, Diretor de Vendas e Programa de Parceiros da Eidosmedia. “Para os nossos clientes, especialmente os grandes grupos regionais e títulos nacionais, as edições impressas continuam a ser uma importante fonte de receita. Existe um grande interesse em maneiras de reduzir o tempo e os custos de produção neste importante canal de publicação.”

“A adequação das nossas rotinas de criação de edição impressa e o mecanismo de IA da Sophi acabou sendo muito boa”, disse Marco. “Rapidamente conseguimos começar a treinar o modelo de paginação dos layouts existentes e, em apenas alguns dias, conseguimos os primeiros resultados”.

“O aumento da produtividade é excepcional”, disse Marco, “especialmente nas publicações diárias em que a operação de design de páginas geralmente é sempre super acelerada”. Na verdade, uma edição impressa típica de 32 páginas pode ser paginada em minutos em comparação com várias horas em uma operação manual.

A automatização de impressão com a tecnologia Sophi é diferente das outras soluções de produção para impressão por ser totalmente isenta de modelos. Ela usa IA inteligente para garantir que as páginas impressas de uma edição pareçam ter sido produzidas por editores e designers de páginas experientes. Cada página é projetada a partir do zero, seguindo o vocabulário de design de cada marca individual. O resultado final é um arquivo PDF ou InDesign pronto para impressão que fica pronto em minutos.

Os designers de páginas são os que se beneficiam mais da nova tecnologia. Eles estão sempre sendo pressionados para aumentar a produtividade, mesmo com os editores tentando cortar os custos. Com um pessoal cada vez menor para distribuir um número cada vez maior de páginas, o trabalho do designer tornou-se, em muitos casos, uma corrida estressante contra o tempo. O mecanismo de automação irá eliminar as tarefas de rotina dos designers para que eles possam dedicar mais tempo às primeiras páginas, recursos e layouts especiais, onde sua criatividade pode realmente agregar valor.

“A automação de páginas é a maior inovação da indústria editorial desde a substituição da máquina de escrever pelo computador”, disse Marco.

Gabe Gonda, vice-presidente da Sophi.io, comentou: “A Sophi está muito contente com essa parceria com a Eidosmedia para o fornecimento da nossa tecnologia de automação de impressão através da plataforma Méthode. A Eidosmedia é fornecedor de CMS de primeira classe e tem profundo conhecimento das necessidades em constante mudança dos seus clientes. Esta parceria viabilizará o fornecimento de uma solução única e de alto valor para algumas das melhores editoras de jornais do mundo.”

Eidosmedia s’associe à Sophi.io pour l’automatisation de l’impression basée sur l’IA

Ce partenariat intègre la technologie d’intelligence artificielle (IA) de Sophi.io dans la plateforme éditoriale d’Eidosmedia, apportant une automatisation transparente de la mise en page des impressions basées sur l’apprentissage machine (AM) aux clients d’Eidosmedia

TORONTO, 30 sept. 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Eidosmedia, développeur de solutions d’édition numérique pour des groupes de médias d’informations de premier plan dans le monde entier, s’est associé à Sophi.io, une plateforme d’automatisation, d’optimisation et de prévision basée sur l’IA développée par The Globe and Mail, pour apporter une automatisation transparente de la mise en page d’impression aux clients d’Eidosmedia.

La solution réduit l’intégralité du processus de mise en page en vue de l’impression de quelques heures à quelques minutes, sans recourir à des modèles. Les éditeurs peuvent considérablement améliorer la productivité et réduire les coûts, tout cela au sein de la plateforme Méthode qu’ils utilisent actuellement.

« La complexité des mises en page pour l’impression a jusqu’à présent défié la facilité apportée par l’automatisation qui accélère la publication de formats en ligne », a déclaré Marco Cetola, directeur des ventes et des programmes de partenariat d’Eidosmedia. « Pour nos clients, en particulier les grands groupes régionaux et les titres nationaux, les éditions imprimées continuent d’être une source majeure de revenus. Il existe un vif intérêt pour les moyens de réduire les délais et les coûts de production dans cet important canal d’édition. »

« La compatibilité entre nos processus de construction d’éditions imprimées et le moteur d’IA de Sophi s’est avérée très bonne », a ajouté M. Cetola. « Nous avons rapidement pu commencer à former le modèle de pagination à partir des mises en page existantes, et avons obtenu les premiers résultats en seulement quelques jours. »

« La hausse de la productivité enregistrée est exceptionnelle, en particulier pour les publications quotidiennes où l’opération de mise en page se fait généralement dans des délais très serrés », a expliqué M. Cetola. En fait, une édition imprimée typique de 32 pages peut être paginée en quelques minutes par rapport à plusieurs heures pour un fonctionnement manuel.

L’automatisation de l’impression basée sur Sophi est différente des autres solutions de production d’impression parce qu’elle est totalement exempte de modèles. Elle utilise l’intelligence artificielle pour s’assurer que les pages imprimées d’un éditeur aient l’air d’avoir été produites par des rédacteurs et des concepteurs de pages expérimentés. Chaque page est conçue à partir de zéro en suivant les instructions de design de chaque marque. Le résultat final est un fichier PDF ou InDesign destiné à l’impression qui est prêt en quelques minutes.

Parmi ceux qui bénéficieront de la nouvelle technologie figurent les concepteurs de pages eux-mêmes. Les concepteurs de pages sont sous pression depuis un certain temps pour accroître leur productivité alors que les éditeurs essaient de réduire les coûts. Avec moins de main-d’œuvre pour créer un nombre croissant de pages, le travail du concepteur est souvent devenu une course stressante contre la montre. Le moteur d’automatisation les déchargera des tâches de routine afin qu’ils puissent consacrer plus de temps aux premières pages, aux fonctionnalités et aux mises en page spéciales où leur créativité peut réellement ajouter de la valeur.

« L’automatisation de la mise en page est la plus grande innovation dans le secteur de l’édition depuis que l’ordinateur personnel a remplacé les machines à écrire », a conclu M. Cetola.

Gabe Gonda, vice-président de Sophi.io, a déclaré : « Sophi est ravie de conclure un partenariat avec Eidosmedia pour fournir notre technologie d’automatisation de l’impression via la plateforme Méthode. Eidosmedia est un fournisseur de CMS de première classe possédant une connaissance approfondie des besoins en constante évolution de ses clients. Ce partenariat contribue à fournir une solution unique et de grande valeur à certains des plus grands éditeurs de journaux au monde. »

À propos d’Eidosmedia

Eidosmedia (www.eidosmedia.com) est un leader mondial de la gestion de contenu et de l’édition numérique. Les solutions d’Eidosmedia sont utilisées par des organisations médiatiques du monde entier pour créer et fournir des portefeuilles de produits d’actualité allant des formats numériques avancés aux journaux et magazines traditionnels.

Triller Inc. Secures $310 Million Equity Funding from Global Emerging Markets (GEM) in connection with Upcoming Public Listing

Company Expects to be Publicly Trading in Early Q4 Under Symbol “ILLR”

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 29, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Triller Inc.(“Triller”) and GEM Global Yield LLC SCS (“GGY”) today announced a binding $310 million investment from GEM, the Luxembourg based private alternative investment group, in the form of a share subscription facility. Under the agreement, GEM will provide Triller with up to $310 million in equity capital for a 36-month term following a public listing of Triller’s common stock.

Triller will not be obligated to draw the full $310 million but can do so in part or in whole at its discretion. Triller will control both the timing and amount of all drawdowns and will issue stock to GEM on each drawn down from the facility. Triller will also issue warrants to GEM, further aligning the interests of the companies.

Triller filed its private S-1 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission last month and is submitting what it anticipates being the final S-1 concurrently with the closing of this facility. The expectation is that trading will commence in early Q4 2022.

“Triller has been growing tremendously,” said Mahi de Silva, CEO and Chairman of Triller. “At our inception in 2019, we were a zero-revenue company; now we are on track to break $100 million in revenue this year. The Triller app has been downloaded more than 350 million times, and the company works with dozens of the world’s largest brands and thousands of top artists, disrupting the entire creator community.”

Triller has 10 business lines, eight of which are at break-even or profitable, and effectuates 750 million interactions per quarter, each of which is a potential monetizable transaction for the company in the future.

With the capital infusion from GEM, Triller will be able to make additional acquisitions to strengthen its toolbox for the creator community and reach breakeven or profitability in the short-term. Assuming it draws upon the full $310 million equity facility, Triller will have raised more than $600 million dollars and, upon its IPO, will be virtually debt free.

“Triller is breaking all the rules of the closed garden systems. It is challenging the way the old establishment takes advantage of creators and users by keeping 99 percent of the money within the system for itself,” said De Silva. “The reason the industry is so set on MAU, DAU and the like is that is how much time someone spends within one company’s particular closed garden and means that the social networks ‘own’ the user, revenue, brand and information.

“Triller breaks that system wide open. As an open garden, our goal is to put the power back in the hands of the creators and users, allowing creators and brands to connect directly. We provide tools to maximize those connections and how well each can be monetized. In addition, looking at the number of interactions we facilitate helps us to forecast future revenue since each one of those is a potential transaction fee for us.”

About Triller Inc.

Triller is the AI-powered open garden technology platform for creators. Pairing music culture with sports, fashion, entertainment, and influencers through a 360-degree view of content and technology, Triller encourages its influencers to post the content created on the app across different social media platforms and uses proprietary AI technology to push and track their content virally to affiliated and non-affiliated sites and networks, enabling them to reach millions of additional users. Triller additionally owns VERZUZ, the live-stream music platform; combat sports brands Triller Fight Club, Triad Combat and BKFC; Amplify.ai, a leading customer engagement platform; FITE.tv, a premier global PPV, AVOD, and SVOD streaming service; Thuzio, a leader in B2B premium influencer events and experiences; Fangage, a platform for creators to engage fans and monetize content and Julius, a platform for brands and agencies to harness creators for social engagement and social commerce.
