FDA Accepts LEQEMBI (lecanemab-irmb) Biologics License Application for Subcutaneous Maintenance Dosing for the Treatment of Early Alzheimer’s Disease JCN Newswire

FDA Accepts LEQEMBI (lecanemab-irmb) Biologics License Application for Subcutaneous Maintenance Dosing for the Treatment of Early Alzheimer’s Disease

TOKYO and CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Jan 15, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Eisai Co., Ltd. and Biogen Inc. announced today that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted Eisai’s Biologics License Application (BLA) for lecanemab-irmb (U.S. brand name: LEQEMBI®) subcutaneous autoinjector (SC-AI) for weekly maintenance dosing. LEQEMBI is indicated for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) or mild dementia stage of disease (collectively referred to as early AD). A Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) action date is set for August 31, 2025.The BLA is based on data from the Clarity AD (Study 301) open-label extension (OLE) and modeling of observed data. If LEQEMBI subcutaneous maintenance dosing is approved by the FDA, LEQEMBI will be the only treatment for AD that can be administered subcutaneously at home using an autoinjector (AI). The injection process is expected to take, on average, 15 seconds. As part of the SC-AI 360 mg weekly maintenance regimen, patients who have completed the biweekly intravenous (IV) initiation phase, exact period under discussion with the FDA, would receive weekly doses that are expected to maintain the clinical and biomarker benefits.AD is a progressive, relentless disease caused by a continuous underlying neurotoxic process that begins before and continues after plaque deposition.1,2,3 Only LEQEMBI works to fight AD in two ways by continuously clearing protofibrils and rapidly clearing plaque. With continuous administration, LEQEMBI clears highly toxic protofibrils* which can continue to cause neuronal injury even after amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaque has been cleared from the brain. Long-term three-year LEQEMBI data presented at the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference (AAIC) 2024 suggest that early and continuing treatment may prolong the benefit of therapy even after plaque is cleared from the brain.4The SC-AI is expected to be simple and easy for patients and their care partners to use, and may reduce the need for hospital or infusion site visits and nursing care for IV administration, which will make it easier to continue maintenance administration and may contribute to further simplifying the treatment pathway for AD.LEQEMBI is approved in the U.S., Japan, China, South Korea, Hong Kong, Israel, UAE, Great Britain, Mexico, and Macau. In November 2024, the treatment received a positive opinion from the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) recommending approval. Eisai has submitted applications for approval of lecanemab in 17 countries and regions. The US FDA accepted Eisai’s Supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for monthly LEQEMBI IV maintenance dosing in June 2024 and set a PDUFA action date for January 25, 2025.Eisai serves as the lead for lecanemab’s development and regulatory submissions globally with Eisai and Biogen co-commercializing and co-promoting the product and Eisai having final decision-making authority.*Protofibrils are believed to contribute to the brain injury that occurs with AD and are considered to be the most toxic form of Aβ, having a primary role in the cognitive decline associated with this progressive, debilitating condition.5 Protofibrils cause injury to neurons in the brain, which in turn, can negatively impact cognitive function via multiple mechanisms, not only increasing the development of insoluble Aβ plaques but also increasing direct damage to brain cell membranes and the connections that transmit signals between nerve cells or nerve cells and other cells. It is believed the reduction of protofibrils may prevent the progression of AD by reducing damage to neurons in the brain and cognitive dysfunction.6 INDICATIONLEQEMBI® [(lecanemab-irmb) 100 mg/mL injection for intravenous use] is indicated for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Treatment with LEQEMBI should be initiated in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild dementia stage of disease, the population in which treatment was initiated in clinical trials.CONTRAINDICATIONLEQEMBI is contraindicated in patients with serious hypersensitivity to lecanemab-irmb or to any of the excipients of LEQEMBI. Reactions have included angioedema and anaphylaxis.WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS AMYLOID-RELATED IMAGING ABNORMALITIESMedications in this class, including LEQEMBI, can cause ARIA-E, which can be observed on MRI as brain edema or sulcal effusions, and ARIA-H, which includes microhemorrhage and superficial siderosis. ARIA can occur spontaneously in patients with AD, particularly in patients with MRI findings suggestive of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), such as pretreatment microhemorrhage or superficial siderosis. ARIA-H generally occurs with ARIA-E. Reported ARIA symptoms may include headache, confusion, visual changes, dizziness, nausea, and gait difficulty. Focal neurologic deficits may also occur. Symptoms usually resolve over time.Incidence of ARIASymptomatic ARIA occurred in 3% and serious ARIA symptoms in 0.7% with LEQEMBI. Clinical ARIA symptoms resolved in 79% of patients during the period of observation. ARIA, including asymptomatic radiographic events, was observed: LEQEMBI, 21%; placebo, 9%. ARIA-E was observed: LEQEMBI, 13%; placebo, 2%. ARIA-H was observed: LEQEMBI, 17%; placebo, 9%. No increase in isolated ARIA-H was observed for LEQEMBI vs placebo.Incidence of ICHICH >1 cm in diameter was reported in 0.7% with LEQEMBI vs 0.1% with placebo. Fatal events of ICH in patients taking LEQEMBI have been observed.Risk Factors of ARIA and ICHApoE ε4 Carrier StatusOf the patients taking LEQEMBI, 16% were ApoE ε4 homozygotes, 53% were heterozygotes, and 31% were noncarriers. With LEQEMBI, ARIA was higher in ApoE ε4 homozygotes (LEQEMBI: 45%; placebo: 22%) than in heterozygotes (LEQEMBI: 19%; placebo: 9%) and noncarriers (LEQEMBI: 13%; placebo: 4%). Symptomatic ARIA-E occurred in 9% of ApoE ε4 homozygotes vs 2% of heterozygotes and 1% of noncarriers. Serious ARIA events occurred in 3% of ApoE ε4 homozygotes and in ~1% of heterozygotes and noncarriers. The recommendations on management of ARIA do not differ between ApoE ε4 carriers and noncarriers.Radiographic Findings of CAANeuroimaging findings that may indicate CAA include evidence of prior ICH, cerebral microhemorrhage, and cortical superficial siderosis. CAA has an increased risk for ICH. The presence of an ApoE ε4 allele is also associated with CAA.The baseline presence of at least 2 microhemorrhages or the presence of at least 1 area of superficial siderosis on MRI, which may be suggestive of CAA, have been identified as risk factors for ARIA. Patients were excluded from Clarity AD for the presence of >4 microhemorrhages and additional findings suggestive of CAA (prior cerebral hemorrhage >1 cm in greatest diameter, superficial siderosis, vasogenic edema) or other lesions (aneurysm, vascular malformation) that could potentially increase the risk of ICH.Concomitant Antithrombotic or Thrombolytic MedicationIn Clarity AD, baseline use of antithrombotic medication (aspirin, other antiplatelets, or anticoagulants) was allowed if the patient was on a stable dose. Most exposures were to aspirin. Antithrombotic medications did not increase the risk of ARIA with LEQEMBI. The incidence of ICH: 0.9% in patients taking LEQEMBI with a concomitant antithrombotic medication vs 0.6% with no antithrombotic and 2.5% in patients taking LEQEMBI with an anticoagulant alone or with antiplatelet medication such as aspirin vs none in patients receiving placebo.Fatal cerebral hemorrhage has occurred in 1 patient taking an anti-amyloid monoclonal antibody in the setting of focal neurologic symptoms of ARIA and the use of a thrombolytic agent.Additional caution should be exercised when considering the administration of antithrombotics or a thrombolytic agent (e.g., tissue plasminogen activator) to a patient already being treated with LEQEMBI. Because ARIA-E can cause focal neurologic deficits that can mimic an ischemic stroke, treating clinicians should consider whether such symptoms could be due to ARIA-E before giving thrombolytic therapy in a patient being treated with LEQEMBI.Caution should be exercised when considering the use of LEQEMBI in patients with factors that indicate an increased risk for ICH and, in particular, patients who need to be on anticoagulant therapy or patients with findings on MRI that are suggestive of CAA.Radiographic Severity With LEQEMBIMost ARIA-E radiographic events occurred within the first 7 doses, although ARIA can occur at any time, and patients can have >1 episode. Maximum radiographic severity of ARIA-E with LEQEMBI was mild in 4%, moderate in 7%, and severe in 1% of patients. Resolution on MRI occurred in 52% of ARIA-E patients by 12 weeks, 81% by 17 weeks, and 100% overall after detection. Maximum radiographic severity of ARIA-H microhemorrhage with LEQEMBI was mild in 9%, moderate in 2%, and severe in 3% of patients; superficial siderosis was mild in 4%, moderate in 1%, and severe in 0.4% of patients. With LEQEMBI, the rate of severe radiographic ARIA-E was highest in ApoE ε4 homozygotes (5%) vs heterozygotes (0.4%) or noncarriers (0%). With LEQEMBI, the rate of severe radiographic ARIA-H was highest in ApoE ε4 homozygotes (13.5%) vs heterozygotes (2.1%) or noncarriers (1.1%).Monitoring and Dose Management GuidelinesBaseline brain MRI and periodic monitoring with MRI are recommended. Enhanced clinical vigilance for ARIA is recommended during the first 14 weeks of treatment. Depending on ARIA-E and ARIA-H clinical symptoms and radiographic severity, use clinical judgment when considering whether to continue dosing or to temporarily or permanently discontinue LEQEMBI. If a patient experiences ARIA symptoms, clinical evaluation should be performed, including MRI if indicated. If ARIA is observed on MRI, careful clinical evaluation should be performed prior to continuing treatment.HYPERSENSITIVITY REACTIONSHypersensitivity reactions, including angioedema, bronchospasm, and anaphylaxis, have occurred with LEQEMBI. Promptly discontinue the infusion upon the first observation of any signs or symptoms consistent with a hypersensitivity reaction and initiate appropriate therapy.INFUSION-RELATED REACTIONS (IRRs)IRRs were observed—LEQEMBI: 26%; placebo: 7%—and most cases with LEQEMBI (75%) occurred with the first infusion. IRRs were mostly mild (69%) or moderate (28%). Symptoms included fever and flu-like symptoms (chills, generalized aches, feeling shaky, and joint pain), nausea, vomiting, hypotension, hypertension, and oxygen desaturation.In the event of an IRR, the infusion rate may be reduced or discontinued, and appropriate therapy initiated as clinically indicated. Consider prophylactic treatment prior to future infusions with antihistamines, acetaminophen, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or corticosteroids. ADVERSE REACTIONSThe most common adverse reactions reported in ≥5% with LEQEMBI and ≥2% higher than placebo were IRRs (LEQEMBI: 26%; placebo: 7%), ARIA-H (LEQEMBI: 14%; placebo: 8%), ARIA-E (LEQEMBI: 13%; placebo: 2%), headache (LEQEMBI: 11%; placebo: 8%), superficial siderosis of central nervous system (LEQEMBI: 6%; placebo: 3%), rash (LEQEMBI: 6%; placebo: 4%), and nausea/vomiting (LEQEMBI: 6%; placebo: 4%).

Askara tentera Korea Utara di Rusia membunuh diri di tengah-tengah penangkapan tawanan perang pertama oleh Ukraine “`

(SeaPRwire) - Kisah ini membincangkan tentang bunuh diri. Jika anda atau seseorang yang anda kenali mempunyai fikiran untuk membunuh diri, sila hubungi Talian Bantuan Bunuh Diri & Krisis di 988 atau 1-800-273-TALK (8255).Askari Korea Utara yang menentang pasukan Ukraine telah mula menggunakan langkah drastik untuk mengelakkan daripada ditangkap, termasuk membunuh diri, menurut laporan Reuters pada hari Selasa. Berikutan pertempuran minggu ini, pasukan khas Ukraine dilaporkan telah menggeledah kawasan bersalji di mana lebih daripada sedozen askar Korea Utara terkorban sebelum mereka menemui seorang yang masih hidup. Askari Korea Utara itu dilihat telah mengeluarkan dan meletupkan bom tangan, membunuh dirinya sendiri, walaupun tanpa mencederakan tentera Ukraine berdekatan.Berita tentang taktik berkorban diri yang digunakan itu datang hanya beberapa hari selepas Presiden Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy berkata, buat pertama kalinya, dua tawanan perang Korea Utara telah ditangkap oleh pasukan Ukraine.Zelenskyy mengesahkan penangkapan itu dalam ucapannya kepada negara pada hari Sabtu, mengatakan "ia bukan mudah" dan mendakwa bahawa nampaknya "menamatkan askar Korea yang cedera" untuk mengelakkan penangkapan mereka.Ukraine telah berulang kali mendakwa bahawa Rusia telah mengeluarkan ID tentera kepada pasukan Korea Utara sebagai langkah untuk menyembunyikan bukti bahawa tentera asing telah memasuki perang untuk menyokong Moscow, walaupun negara-negara Barat, termasuk Amerika Syarikat, telah mengesahkan selama beberapa bulan penempatan pasukan Pyongyang ke Rusia.Seramai 12,000 askar Korea Utara telah dikerahkan ke Rusia, dianggarkan 11,000 daripadanya telah ditempatkan di Kursk untuk menghalang kemajuan Ukraine. Zelenskyy, serta perisikan Korea Selatan, telah berkata tentera Korea Utara di Kursk telah menyaksikan kira-kira 3,000 kematian sejak mereka memasuki pertempuran pada pertengahan November.Dalam catatan pada hari Ahad di X, Zelenskyy berkongsi video dua askar Korea Utara yang ditangkap menerima rawatan perubatan dan disoal tentang apa yang mereka ketahui sebelum mereka terlibat dalam pertempuran barisan hadapan.Salah seorang askar itu berkata dia tidak tahu bahawa dia akan berperang menentang Ukraine untuk membantu Rusia, dan sebaliknya percaya dia dan pasukannya dihantar untuk latihan.Bagaimanapun, menjelang 3 Januari, salah seorang askar itu mendapati dirinya dalam operasi aktif dan menyaksikan askar Korea Utara mati sebelum dia bersembunyi di dalam lubang perlindungan selama dua hari. Dia dijumpai pada 5 Januari.Perisikan Barat telah berulang kali mencadangkan bahawa untuk pertempuran yang mereka sertai, dan Zelenskyy berkata pada hari Ahad, "Ia hanya soal masa sebelum pasukan kita berjaya menangkap yang lain.""Ukraine bersedia menyerahkan askar Kim Jong Un kepadanya jika dia dapat mengatur pertukaran mereka untuk pejuang kita yang ditawan di Rusia," kata Zelenskyy. "Bagi askar Korea Utara yang tidak mahu pulang, mungkin terdapat pilihan lain yang tersedia."Reuters menyumbang kepada laporan ini.Artikel ini disediakan oleh pembekal kandungan pihak ketiga.

Serangan kabel bawah laut antarabangsa oleh Rusia, China bukan sekadar ‘kebetulan’ – amaran ketua diplomat EU

(SeaPRwire) - Serangan terhadap badan air di Laut Baltik dan Laut China Selatan oleh Rusia dan China, masing-masing, dalam beberapa bulan kebelakangan ini telah menimbulkan kebimbangan pegawai atasan bahawa ia bukan sekadar "kebetulan semata-mata".Usaha sabotaj maritim di kedua-dua wilayah dunia ini nampaknya semakin meningkat sejak beberapa tahun kebelakangan ini, dengan peningkatan ketara dalam beberapa bulan kebelakangan ini selepas sekurang-kurangnya tiga serangan berasingan berlaku dalam tempoh tiga bulan, bermula pada bulan November, dan suspek utama ialah Rusia dan China."Kremlin telah menjalankan kempen hibrid menentang Eropah selama bertahun-tahun, daripada menyebarkan maklumat palsu dan serangan siber kepada penyelewengan bekalan tenaga. Sejak pencerobohan besar-besaran Rusia ke atas Ukraine, usaha ini telah meningkat dengan mendadak," kata Perwakilan Tinggi EU Kaja Kallas kepada Digital. "Bagaimanapun, Rusia bukanlah satu-satunya cabaran yang kita hadapi."Pada bulan November, dua kabel di bawah Laut Baltik telah terputus, dan sebuah kapal dagang yang berbendera China yang digelar Yi Peng 3 telah dihentikan oleh angkatan laut Denmark dan diarahkan untuk berlabuh di laut sementara pihak berkuasa antarabangsa memulakan siasatan ke atas insiden tersebut.Kapal China itu, yang dilaporkan telah meninggalkan pelabuhan Rusia Ust-Luga pada 15 November, didapati telah menyeret sauhnya, memotong kabel bawah laut yang menghubungkan Sweden dan Lithuania pada 17 November serta kabel komunikasi satu-satunya yang menghubungkan Finland dengan Jerman pada 18 November.Insiden itu amat mirip kepada peristiwa Oktober 2023 di mana sebuah kapal China yang digelar NewNew Polar Bear, didapati telah menyeret sauhnya, sekali lagi, lebih 100 batu di Teluk Finland dan merosakkan saluran paip gas Balticconnector serta dua kabel telekomunikasi antara Sweden dan Estonia.Kerusakan pada saluran paip itu mengingatkan dunia Barat tentang kelemahan infrastruktur bawah lautnya hanya setahun selepas saluran paip Nord Stream 1 dan 2 telah mengalami kerosakan yang ketara.Menjelang 22 Oktober 2023, kapal China itu dilaporkan telah berlabuh di pelabuhan Rusia Arkhangelsk dengan sauh sisi pelabuhannya hilang.Kali ini, pemimpin Eropah cepat menyuarakan kecurigaan mereka bahawa serangan November itu adalah satu perbuatan sabotaj, dan bekas menunjukkan persamaan antara kedua-dua serangan dalam catatan X yang menyatakan, "Sekiranya saya mempunyai lima sen untuk setiap kali kapal China menyeret sauhnya di dasar Laut Baltik berhampiran kabel penting, saya akan mempunyai dua lima sen, yang tidak banyak, tetapi ia pelik kerana ia berlaku dua kali."Walaupun Beijing menafikan sebarang kesalahan sengaja dalam kedua-dua insiden itu, menyasarkan kabel bawah laut antarabangsa bukanlah taktik baru yang digunakan oleh China.Taiwan minggu lepas mula menyiasat sama ada sebuah kapal yang berkaitan dengan China bertanggungjawab untuk merosakkan secara sengaja salah satu kabelnya yang menghubungkan pulau itu dengan internet, dan Taipei telah mengambil langkah-langkah untuk dalam usaha untuk mengelakkan percubaan masa depan oleh Beijing untuk memutuskan hubungannya dengan masyarakat antarabangsa dengan menyasarkan kabel gentian optiknya.Tetapi taktik yang telah lama digunakan China terhadap Taiwan kini dioptimumkan di Laut Baltik. telah memberi amaran tentang rancangan China untuk menyerang dan mencaplok negara pulau jiran menjelang 2027."Kapal-kapal China kini telah terlibat dalam kerosakan baru-baru ini pada kabel Laut Baltik, sesuatu yang telah kita lihat di selat Taiwan selama bertahun-tahun," kata diplomat tertinggi EU kepada Digital. "Memandangkan sokongan besar China terhadap Rusia dalam perangnya menentang Ukraine, adalah sukar untuk melihat insiden ini sebagai kebetulan semata-mata."China sedang memantau tindak balas kita terhadap perang Rusia. Amerika Syarikat mesti tegas terhadap Rusia untuk mencegah masalah dengan China," amaran Kallas. "Menyokong Ukraine hari ini membantu mengekalkan tentera Amerika daripada konflik masa depan."Tetapi China bukan satu-satunya negara yang disyaki melakukan sabotaj terhadap kabel bawah laut antarabangsa.Sebuah kapal yang dituduh mempunyai kaitan dengan Rusia telah , yang menyiasat serangan yang disyaki telah merosakkan empat telekomunikasi dan kabel kuasa Finland-Estonia Estlink 2 pada Hari Krismas dengan, sekali lagi, menyeret sauhnya di dasar laut.Kapal tangki yang digelar Eagle S disyaki digunakan oleh Moscow di bawah skim yang dikenali sebagai "armada bayangan" yang bergantung pada kapal-kapal lama di bawah pemilikan yang diragui untuk membantu Rusia mengelak sekatan dan mengekalkan eksport minyaknya ke .Sama ada Pentagon mahupun Rumah Putih tidak menjawab soalan Digital tentang sama ada serangan baru-baru ini di kedua-dua wilayah dunia itu berkaitan. Tetapi pakar keselamatan telah memberi isyarat bahawa dalam politik antarabangsa terdapat sedikit ruang untuk "kebetulan"."Walaupun kekurangan maklumat awam yang jelas membuktikan koordinasi dan persekongkolan China dan Rusia, saya tidak percaya kepada kebetulan dalam hal ehwal antarabangsa," kata bekas Timbalan Pembantu Setiausaha Pertahanan untuk Asia Timur Heino Klinck kepada Digital. "Kedua-dua pelakon jahat ini berkembang maju dalam zon kelabu, dan serangan ini nampaknya saling mengukuhkan dan saling memberi inspirasi kerana ia menunjukkan tindak balas antarabangsa yang tidak berkesan sehingga kini."NATO pada hari Selasa akan mengumumkan bertajuk "Baltic Sentry" yang akan melibatkan penggunaan lebih banyak kapal, armada dron tentera laut dan penggunaan AI untuk mengesan, mencegah dan bertindak balas dengan lebih baik terhadap serangan atau perbuatan sabotaj di Laut Baltik, kata jurucakap NATO kepada Digital.NATO tidak menjawab soalan sama ada pakatan itu menilai sabotaj maritim baru-baru ini sebagai operasi yang diselaraskan antara Rusia dan China, walaupun seorang pegawai keselamatan Barat yang biasa dengan risikan mengenai serangan itu berkata ini tidak dipercayai sebagai insiden peluang."Ia nampaknya sedikit lebih diselaraskan daripada yang difikirkan pada awalnya," kata pegawai keselamatan itu, yang bercakap kepada Digital dengan syarat tidak dikenali. "Bukan sahaja seseorang itu membuang sauh, dan kemudian mereka melihat apa yang berlaku. Ini sedikit lebih dirancang dan sedikit lebih diselaraskan."Artikel ini disediakan oleh pembekal kandungan pihak ketiga.

Gorila bayi ditemui dalam kargo pesawat sedang pulih di zoo Turki

(SeaPRwire) - Seekor gorilla muda yang diselamatkan daripada ruang kargo kapal terbang sedang pulih di sebuah zoo, kata pegawai pada hari Ahad, sementara pegawai hidupan liar sedang mempertimbangkan untuk mengembalikannya ke habitat aslinya.Gorilla berusia 5 bulan itu dijumpai di dalam sebuah kotak di dalam penerbangan Turkish Airlines ke Thailand bulan lalu. Selepas pertandingan terbuka, ia telah dinamakan Zeytin, atau Zaitun, dan sedang pulih di Zoo Polonezkoy."Sudah tentu, apa yang kita mahukan dan inginkan ialah bagi bayi gorilla itu... untuk meneruskan hidupnya di tanah airnya," kata Fahrettin Ulu, pengarah serantau Pemuliharaan Alam dan Taman Negara Istanbul, pada hari Ahad."Apa yang penting ialah persekitaran yang benar-benar selamat diwujudkan di tempat ia pergi, yang amat penting bagi kita."Dalam beberapa minggu sejak ia dijumpai, Zeytin telah bertambah berat badan dan menunjukkan tanda-tanda pemulihan daripada perjalanannya yang traumatik."Apabila ia pertama kali datang, ia sangat pemalu, ia akan kekal di tempat yang kami tinggalkan," kata doktor haiwan Gulfem Esmen. "Ia tidak lagi mempunyai sifat pemalu itu. Ia langsung tidak menghiraukan kami. Ia bermain sendiri."Kedua-dua spesies gorilla — gorilla barat dan timur, yang mendiami hutan dan gunung terpencil di tengah Afrika — diklasifikasikan sebagai terancam oleh Kesatuan Antarabangsa bagi Pemuliharaan Alam.Oleh kerana Istanbul muncul sebagai hab utama antara benua, pegawai kastam semakin kerap menyita haiwan yang didagangkan secara haram. Pada bulan Oktober, 17 buaya Nil muda dan 10 biawak monitor dijumpai di dalam bagasi seorang penumpang Mesir di Lapangan Terbang Sabiha Gokcen di bandar itu.Artikel ini disediakan oleh pembekal kandungan pihak ketiga.

Gencatan senjata antara Israel dan Hamas semakin hampir di tengah-tengah kebimbangan kumpulan pengganas tersebut mempersenjatai semula di Gaza “`

(SeaPRwire) - Ketika rundingan gencatan senjata antara Israel dan Hamas menghampiri saat yang menentukan, jumlah korban konflik terus meningkat.Hari ini, tentera Israel melaporkan lima askar terkorban di Beit Hanoun, utara Gaza, dan lapan lagi cedera akibat letupan peluru, salah satu insiden paling mematikan dalam operasi baru-baru ini. Pada hari Ahad, empat lagi askar terkorban di Gaza. Sementara itu, Hamas telah melancarkan 20 roket ke Israel sepanjang dua minggu lalu, menunjukkan keupayaan berterusan mereka untuk melancarkan serangan selepas 15 bulan peperangan.Rundingan yang melibatkan Amerika Syarikat, Qatar dan Mesir dilaporkan hampir mencapai persetujuan. Draf perjanjian itu akan menjamin pembebasan 33 daripada 98 tebusan – kanak-kanak, wanita, askar wanita, lelaki berusia lebih 50 tahun dan kes kemanusiaan – sebagai pertukaran untuk ratusan tahanan Palestin, termasuk tahanan berprofil tinggi. Fasa ini dijangka berlangsung selama 42 hari.Menurut seorang pegawai Israel, kebanyakan daripada 33 tebusan yang ditawan oleh Hamas dari Israel pada 7 Oktober 2023, masih hidup. Bantuan kemanusiaan akan dihantar ke jalur Gaza semasa fasa ini. Israel dilaporkan akan membebaskan 50 tahanan bagi setiap tebusan wanita dan 30 kanak-kanak dan wanita bagi setiap tebusan.Perjanjian itu juga akan termasuk konsesi penting Israel yang membenarkan 1 juta penduduk Palestin yang terlantar kembali ke utara Gaza, satu langkah yang oleh pakar keselamatan memberi amaran boleh membolehkan Hamas untuk menyusun semula kekuatan."Kadar di mana Hamas membina semula diri mereka lebih tinggi daripada kadar IDF menghapuskan mereka," kata Brigedier Jeneral IDF bersara, Amir Avivi kepada.Avivi turut memberitahu radio Israel bahawa perjanjian itu mesti merangkumi semua tebusan, tetapi hanya ada satu tuntutan Hamas yang tidak dapat dipersetujui: "menamatkan peperangan." Beliau berkata selagi penamatan peperangan bukan sebahagian daripada perjanjian, maka "konsesi keras" boleh dibuat.Semasa ucapan dasar luar negaranya di Jabatan Negara pada hari Isnin, Presiden Biden berkata, "Kita berada di ambang cadangan yang dikemukakan beberapa bulan lalu akhirnya membuahkan hasil. Kita menekan keras untuk menutup perkara ini – membebaskan tebusan, menghentikan pertempuran, menjamin keselamatan Israel dan memastikan bantuan kemanusiaan kepada Gaza. Rakyat Palestin layak mendapat keamanan, Israel layak mendapat keamanan, dan kita sedang berusaha keras untuk menutup perjanjian ini semasa kita menangani cabaran tersebut."Penasihat Keselamatan Negara Jake Sullivan menekankan keperluan segera dalam satu kenyataan, "Kami telah berkoordinasi rapat dengan pentadbiran yang akan datang untuk menyampaikan mesej bersatu kepada semua pihak, yang menyatakan bahawa ia adalah demi kepentingan keselamatan negara Amerika…untuk mencapai perjanjian ini secepat mungkin. Dan sekarang kita fikir butiran itu hampir selesai dibincangkan, dan pihak-pihak berada di ambang untuk dapat menutup perjanjian ini. Sama ada kita akan beralih daripada kedudukan kita sekarang kepada benar-benar menutupnya, beberapa jam dan hari akan datang akan menentukannya."Biden dan Perdana Menteri Benjamin Netanyahu membincangkan gencatan senjata yang dicadangkan melalui telefon pada hari Ahad, mencerminkan koordinasi peringkat tinggi antara Amerika Syarikat dan Israel. Utusan AS Brett McGurk telah ditempatkan di Qatar dan bekerja tanpa henti untuk memuktamadkan perjanjian tersebut.Tentera Israel telah melaporkan membunuh kira-kira 17,000 pengganas Hamas dan menahan ribuan lagi sejak perang bermula. Sebelum konflik, Hamas mengekalkan pasukan 30,000 pengganas yang dianjurkan dalam 24 batalion. Walaupun IDF mendakwa telah membongkar sebahagian besar struktur ini, Hamas, yang masih mengawal sebahagian besar Gaza, tidak mendedahkan kerugian atau angka pengambilan baru mereka. Kementerian Kesihatan yang dijalankan oleh Hamas mendakwa kira-kira 46,000 penduduk Gaza telah terkorban setakat ini dalam perang tersebut.Cadangan gencatan senjata telah mencetuskan perdebatan sengit dalam kerajaan Israel. Kebanyakan ahli gabungan, termasuk Netanyahu, menyokong perjanjian itu, memandangnya sebagai langkah penting ke arah. Walau bagaimanapun, beberapa ahli gabungan di sebelah kanan Netanyahu menentang perjanjian itu dengan tegas, memetik risiko keselamatan dan kebimbangan bahawa Hamas akan menggunakan jeda untuk membina semula.Artikel ini disediakan oleh pembekal kandungan pihak ketiga.

Biden Kata Beliau Tinggalkan Trump ‘Keadaan Yang Kuat Untuk Dimainkan,’ Pertahankan Rekodnya Mengenai Afghanistan “`

(SeaPRwire) - Presiden Biden pada hari Isnin berucap dari Jabatan Negara mengenai keadaan dasar luar dan keselamatan negara Amerika Syarikat ketika tempoh empat tahun beliau hampir tamat, iaitu seminggu lagi sebelum Presiden terpilih Trump sekali lagi memegang jawatan tertinggi.Biden tidak secara khusus menangani atau menamakan presiden yang bakal masuk, tetapi beliau merujuk kepada pentadbiran Trump sebelum ini dan yang akan datang, dan menyatakan bahawa beliau meninggalkan "asas yang kukuh".Presiden menyenaraikan beberapa negara utama yang mempunyai kepentingan geopolitik yang tinggi kepada keselamatan negara AS. Tetapi beliau juga merujuk kepada pengunduran AS dari Afghanistan – yang merupakan antara keputusan dasar yang paling kontroversi, dan yang mengakibatkan kematian 13 anggota perkhidmatan Amerika dan kira-kira 170 orang awam Afghanistan apabila ISIS-K melancarkan serangan terhadap mereka yang sedang dipindahkan di Abbey Gate."[Saya adalah] presiden pertama dalam beberapa dekad yang tidak meninggalkan peperangan di Afghanistan kepada penggantinya," kata Biden.Presiden menyebut pembunuhan dalang 9/11, Usama bin Laden, pada tahun 2011 semasa pentadbiran Obama dan berkata beliau menilai bahawa sebilangan besar pasukan Amerika tidak lagi diperlukan apabila beliau memegang jawatan."Jadi apabila saya memegang jawatan, saya mempunyai pilihan – tetapi saya tidak nampak sebab untuk mengekalkan beribu-ribu anggota tentera di Afghanistan," tambahnya. "Pada pandangan saya, sudah tiba masanya untuk menamatkan peperangan dan membawa pulang tentera kita, dan kami melakukannya."Presiden cuba menepis kritikan yang diterimanya terhadap pengunduran itu dan berkata, "Ingat, pengkritik mengatakan jika kita menamatkan perang, ia akan merosakkan pakatan kita dan mewujudkan ancaman kepada tanah air kita daripada keganasan yang diarahkan dari luar negara dari tempat perlindungan yang selamat di Afghanistan."Tiada satu pun yang berlaku," kata Biden. "Pakatan kita tetap kukuh, kita telah menggunakan keupayaan kita di luar kawasan untuk menyerang Afghanistan dan tempat lain apabila perlu."Dan dengan menamatkan perang, kita dapat menumpukan tenaga dan sumber kita kepada cabaran mendesak," kata presiden, sambil menunjuk kepada isu-isu yang terus dihadapi AS daripada musuh seperti Rusia dan China.Biden menggesa pentadbiran Trump yang akan datang untuk terus mempertahankan Ukraine dan menghalang pencerobohan Rusia, sambil menyatakan kejayaan Moscow di Ukraine akan mempunyai akibat yang besar di seluruh dunia – terutamanya di Asia."Masih banyak yang perlu dilakukan. Kita tidak boleh berundur," katanya, sambil menyatakan bahawa AS melabur hampir $1.3 trilion dalam pangkalan industri pertahanan di bawah kepresidenannya."Itu lebih daripada yang dilakukan Amerika dalam mana-mana tempoh empat tahun semasa Perang Dingin," kata Biden. "Ia akan memastikan bahawa kita mempunyai kelengkapan sepenuhnya untuk berperang dan memenangi peperangan, yang juga merupakan cara terbaik untuk menghalang peperangan sejak awal lagi."Biden juga mempromosikan kejayaannya dalam menangani China sebagai musuh utama AS dan mendakwa bahawa apabila beliau memegang jawatan, Beijing dianggarkan akan mengatasi Washington dari segi ekonomi menjelang 2030."Sekarang, menurut ramalan terkini mengenai hala tuju China sekarang, mereka tidak akan pernah mengatasi kita," katanya.Tetapi terdapat satu bidang utama yang beliau beri amaran kepada pentadbiran yang akan datang – perubahan iklim dan ancaman yang ditimbulkan oleh China dalam bidang itu."Sesetengah pihak dalam pentadbiran yang akan datang ragu-ragu tentang keperluan tenaga bersih. Mereka bahkan tidak percaya perubahan iklim itu wujud. Saya fikir mereka datang dari abad yang berbeza," katanya dalam tegurannya yang paling keras terhadap pentadbiran yang akan datang. "Mereka sangat salah."Ia adalah ancaman eksistensial terbesar kepada manusia – peralihan tenaga bersih sedang berlaku," sambung Biden. "China cuba untuk menguasai pembuatan tenaga bersih, bahan kritikal, rantaian bekalan."Mereka mahu menguasai pasaran masa depan dan mewujudkan pergantungan baharu – Amerika Syarikat mesti memenangi pertandingan itu," tambah presiden.Biden selanjutnya menggesa pentadbiran Trump untuk terus membangunkan kecerdasan buatan, serta menentang Houthi di Yaman dan Korea Utara kerana kuasa-kuasa bermusuhan seperti Iran, Rusia dan China semakin rapat.Artikel ini disediakan oleh pembekal kandungan pihak ketiga.

18th Asian Financial Forum wraps up successfully

- The 18th Asian Financial Forum (AFF) ended successfully today, drawing 3,600+ policymakers and business leaders from more than 50 countries and regions to discuss the latest developments in financial markets and investment opportunities- The event focused on how Hong Kong’s position as an international financial centre can be leveraged to navigate and adapt during a period of change, paving the way for more high-profile conferences and exhibitions in the year ahead- More than 700 one-on-one AFF Deal-making meetings were held on-site, connecting funds and investment projects from around the world- On-site polling indicated that generative AI-led innovation (41.6%) and non-AI innovation, including digital infrastructure & healthcare (23%), were seen by most participants as the most critical growth engines in Asia Pacific.HONG KONG, Jan 14, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – The 18th Asian Financial Forum (AFF), co-organised by the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government and the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), successfully wrapped up today under the theme “Powering the Next Growth Engine”. This year’s forum attracted over 3,600 global financial and business elites from more than 50 countries and regions. The event leveraged Hong Kong’s role as an international financial centre to strengthen the international communication platform, foster multilateral cooperation and promote mutually beneficial outcomes. Three high-level Mainland China officials attended the Opening Session of the AFF yesterday, including Zhou Ji, Executive Vice Director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council of the People's Republic of China and Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council; Dr Pan Gongsheng, Governor of the People's Bank of China; and Liu Zhenmin, Special Envoy for Climate Change of China.As the year’s first large-scale international financial and business event in the region, the atmosphere at the AFF was vibrant and charged with a positive energy. The forum showcased emerging perspectives across the diverse sessions, all of which were well-attended and well-received by speakers and audiences alike. Leaders from around the world actively engaged in discussion throughout the two-day event, with more than 130 policymakers, international financial and multilateral organisation representatives, financial institutions, and global corporate leaders joining as speakers.The speaker at the Keynote Luncheon on the first day of this year’s AFF was Prof Justin Lin Yifu, Chief Economist and Senior Vice President of the World Bank (2008-2012), who delivered an in-depth analysis of the shifting global economic landscape. Prof Lin pointed out: “In terms of purchasing power, China has the largest domestic market in the world. I think China can reach a 4.5 % growth rate on the average annually between 2019 and 2049. Thus China will continue to contribute around 30% of growth to the world every year. It’s good not only for China, but also will be the most important asset of Hong Kong in the coming years.”Keynote Luncheon today focused on AI: Future Industries and Implications, with Prof Stuart Russell, Co-chair of the World Economic Forum's Council on AI, sharing his insights into the development, application and governance of generative AI. Prof Russell said: “We could build AI systems that are guaranteed to further human interests but we aren’t. Some may worry that the machines that we are building will become conscious and lose control, but competence should actually be the topic that we worry about. As history shows, we cause species to become extinct due to our competence, not our consciousness. We are training them to have human-like objectives, and that is a fundamental mistake. I am hoping that if we design the AI system well enough, they themselves will refuse to contribute to the enfeeblement of the human race.” Another AI expert, Dr Kai-Fu Lee, Chairman of Sinovation Ventures, also addressed the transformative power of AI and its impact on technological advancements in the global business ecosystem during a dialogue session.In alignment with the HKSAR Government's initiatives to promote sustainable development in Hong Kong, sustainability emerged as a key focus at the forum. A session yesterday featured experts including Sue Lloyd, Vice Chair of the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB), who delved into the adoption of financial disclosure standards to enhance confidence in Hong Kong's capital markets. Today saw more discussions related to sustainable development, including a Breakfast Panel dedicating to transition finance and two more sessions – on sustainable investment and Post-COP29 Implementation: Enhance Climate Ambition and Enable Financing Action – at which Liu Zhenmin, Special Envoy for Climate Change of China, gave remarks.This afternoon saw the debut of the Gulf Cooperation Council Chapter, jointly organised by the AFF and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). Christopher Hui, Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury of the HKSAR Government, and HE Jasem Mohamed AlBudaiwi, Secretary General of the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf, delivered keynote remarks. Financial officials and representatives from Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates joined industry leaders from Hong Kong to share updates on economic developments in the Gulf region, highlight future investment opportunities, and examine ways to strengthen financial cooperation and investment between the member states of the GCC and Hong Kong.In addition, pioneers from a range of industries actively participated in sessions such as CIO Insights, Dialogues for Tomorrow and Global Spectrum, focusing on hot topics ranging from fintech and capital markets to female entrepreneurship and philanthropy. One of the heavyweight speakers at this year’s AFF was Joe Tsai, Chairman of the Alibaba Group, who shared his views at a fireside chat moderated by Ronnie Chan, Honorary Chair, Hang Lung Properties Limited on how large companies spur economic development in a session titled Global Spectrum – The Role of Large Companies in Supporting Start-ups and Social Enterprises.Views on mainland and overseas industries and environmental economies tracked on-siteReal-time polling was conducted during the forum to gauge participants’ views on various topics, such as the global economic outlook and China opportunities. It indicated that generative AI-led innovation (41.6%) and non-AI innovation, including digital infrastructure & healthcare (23%), were seen by participants as the most critical growth engines in the Asia Pacific region. Meanwhile, generative AI (31.4%) and advanced manufacturing (20%) were seen as the most promising growth sectors in Mainland China.More than 700 one-on-one matching meetings facilitated on-site over two daysThis year’s AFF Deal-making, co-organised by the HKTDC and the Hong Kong Venture Capital and Private Equity Association (HKVCA), brought together more than 270 investors and over 560 investment projects with more than 700 one-on-one meetings held, covering a wide spectrum of sectors such as fintech, healthtech, deep tech, consumer goods, infrastructure and real estate, environment, energy and environmental technology. The meetings helped to connect funds and investment projects from across the globe.As always, the AFF featured several exhibition zones, set up with the aim of creating business connections and promoting networking, including the Fintech Showcase, Fintech HK Startup Salon, the InnoVenture Salon, and the Global Investment Zone. These zones featured more than 140 exhibitors including international financial institutions, technology companies, start-ups, investment promotion agencies and sponsors such as AFF Knowledge Partner EY, along with HSBC, Bank of China (Hong Kong), Standard Chartered Bank, UBS, Prudential, China International Capital Corporation (CICC) and Huatai International and more.Three other events ran concurrently with the AFF across the two days. The Hong Kong International Fundraising Roundtable 2025 yesterday convened C-suite leaders from overseas and mainland enterprises with Hong Kong's financial and professional service providers to address pressing financing and fundraising needs. The Malaysia–Hong Kong Islamic Finance Roundtable, co-organised with Malaysia International Islamic Financial Centre (MIFC) Leadership Council, facilitated the development of cross-border financial activities between Hong Kong and Islamic economies represented by Malaysia. Additionally, the Family Office Symposium, co-organised with the Private Wealth Management Association (PWMA), spotlighted Hong Kong’s advantages as a premier family office destination and explored current investment trends.The Asian Financial Forum was a signature event of 2025 International Financial Week (IFW), which runs from 13 to 17 January and brings together more than 20 partner events to create synergies in the industry. These events cover many topics of global interest to the financial and business community, including private equity, family offices, net zero investing and generative AI, among others.

Microware and GAREA TECH collaborate to focus on the digital transformation of primary healthcare in Hong Kong

HONG KONG, Jan 13, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – As the wave of digital and intelligent transformation sweeps the world, Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, as a core driving force behind the new round of technological innovation, is gradually becoming the focus of the healthcare industry.Recently, Microware Group Limited ("Microware", HKEX: 1985.HK,) and GAREA TECH announced the establishment of a strategic partnership. Both parties will work together, leverage their extensive expertise in healthcare and technology to advance the application of AI in medical practice. Together, they are committed to elevating the precision and quality of healthcare services to new heights, benefiting patients worldwide.As one of the leaders in Hong Kong's IT industry, Microware has been established for 40 years, serving 2,000 + clients per annum; 60% of the top 100 listed companies in Hong Kong; and providing services to 80 government units. In recent years, Microware has continuously increased its investment in AI solutions and infrastructure research and development. It has independently developed a new generation of enterprise AI productivity platform, dedicating itself to the deep integration of AI, 5G, big data and Internet of Things technologies, and innovatively applying to smart education, smart medical care, smart government and smart manufacturing.GAREA TECH, on the other hand, is a global leader in providing comprehensive digital healthcare solutions, dedicated to the digital transformation of primary healthcare and the innovation of smart health services. The company has launched the first intelligent general practitioner equipment and has promoted the "Primary Healthcare Service System" in multiple countries and regions worldwide. The collaboration between the two parties will focus on achieving the deep integration of AI and healthcare, offering an integrated smart healthcare solution for the Hong Kong medical market. This solution includes an all-in-one general practitioner workstation, case translation, multilingual real-time speech transcription, multilingual real-time translation, medical record generation, personalized medical databases, and efficient AI consultation tools. In the future, these products will be fully implemented in multiple hospitals and clinics in Hong Kong. Through this collaboration, Microware and GAREA TECH will leverage their cutting-edge technology resources and innovation capabilities to provide more convenient, efficient, and personalized medical services, jointly building a new AI healthcare ecosystem in Hong Kong.AI + Healthcare: Collaborative Innovation to Meet the Urgent Needs of Healthcare Service ReformHong Kong's healthcare system enjoys a global reputation for high efficiency. The average life expectancy of its residents ranks among the highest in the world - 80 years old for men and 86 years old for women. In terms of economic investment, Hong Kong allocates about 6% of its GDP in healthcare, which is relatively low by global standard. Despite this, it can maintain a high level of healthcare service quality and residents' health indicators, showing the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of its medical system.However, in-depth analysis shows that with the acceleration of population aging and the surge in the number of patients with chronic diseases, Hong Kong's current medical system is facing unprecedented challenges. According to the data of the Census and Statistics Department of the Hong Kong SAR Government, the population aged 65 and above accounts for 20.8% of the total population in 2022, and it is expected to rise to 31% by 2039. In 2020/21, the population suffering from chronic diseases will be 31%, about 2.2 million, of which the population aged 65 and above accounts for 47%. The changes in population structure have prompted Hong Kong's primary healthcare system to accelerate the reform of medical service models to meet the increasingly high demand for medical services.Confronted with numerous challenges within Hong Kong's healthcare system, the imperative for the integration and innovative deployment of AI technology has become exceedingly pressing. The AI solutions of Microware can cover more than 20 physical examination projects and complete the detection of more than 100 health indicators. Its self-developed new generation enterprise AI productivity platform, Microcraft, provides out-of-the-box AI applications including knowledge center, multilingual real-time speech transcription, multilingual real-time speech translation, complex document analysis and translation, and AI question and answering. It can not only significantly improve the quality and accessibility of medical services, but can also provide patients with more personalized and precise treatment plans. By utilizing advanced AI algorithms and big data analysis capabilities, it aims to improve overall healthcare efficiency and patient experience. In addition, relying on the significant advantages of GAREA TECH in communication technology, integrated application fields, etc., this cooperation will significantly accelerate the innovative transformation of Hong Kong's primary healthcare service model, and promote its entry into the forefront of digital and intelligent healthcare development.Policy Directive: Harnessing AI to Forge a Pioneering Healthcare Ecosystem in Hong KongMarket growth driven by social needs, coupled with the proactive guidance of policies, has created a powerful synergy that has jointly promoting the popularization and rapid development of AI in the medical industry. In the "2022-2027 Strategic Plan" released by the Hong Kong Hospital Authority, it is clearly proposed that smart medical care should be one of the core directions of future medical development. As the country continues to deepen "smart medical care", AI has become an important driving force for innovation in the medical industry.Additionally, the recently issued "Primary Healthcare Blueprint" by the Hong Kong SAR marks a significant step forward towards smart healthcare. The plan outlines the goals for strengthening Hong Kong's primary healthcare system, focusing on five key areas: building a robust primary healthcare framework, enhancing healthcare management at the grassroots level, integrating resources, strengthening the training of primary healthcare workers, and improving data exchange and health monitoring systems. This initiative aims to address the challenges posed by the aging population and the increasing incidence of chronic diseases.The launch of this policy not only underscores Hong Kong's commitment to improving public health and quality of life, but also provides a strong policy foundation for the development and application of AI technology in the healthcare sector.In this critical period when artificial intelligence is profoundly transforming the healthcare industry, the collaboration between Microware and GAREA TECH comes at an opportune moment. It not only represents a proactive response to these policies but also signals the arrival of a new era of comprehensive smart healthcare development in Hong Kong’s primary healthcare system.The Prospects of The Smart Healthcare Industry are Vast: A Powerful Partnership Deepening Market ExpansionWith the continuous maturity of AI technology and strong support from the policy level, the market of China's smart healthcare industry has shown a rapid growth trend. The latest "2022-2027 China smart healthcare industry development trend and investment risk research report" released by ASKCI Institute shows that with the advancement of science and technology and the improvement of people's health awareness, smart medical care is gradually becoming an important part of the medical system.In the past few years, China's smart healthcare industry has experienced unprecedented rapid growth. In 2023, the market size has reached an astonishing CNY 6.29 billion, showing a strong upward momentum. From 2019 to 2023, the average annual compound growth rate is as high as 53.37%, which fully reflects the vigorous development trend of China's smart medical industry. According to the forecast, by 2024, China's smart medical industry market will further grow to CNY 11.14 billion. This expectation not only reveals the urgent expectation of the current medical industry for digital transformation, but also shows its huge development potential and market prospects.Simultaneously, deep investment in technology research and development is pivotal to sustaining a competitive edge within the industry. With its breakthrough progress in multilingual real-time speech recognition and translation technology, Microware can support the real-time transcription and translation of Cantonese, Mandarin and English, and the analysis and translation of complex documents, which greatly meets the needs of patients in Hong Kong and other multilingual environments. At present, Microware’s equipment has been deployed by 130 clinics, with the goal of covering 3,000 clinics. This not only provides unprecedented convenience for primary healthcare services in Hong Kong, but also promotes the group's long-term strategic planning and layout in the medical field, injecting new impetus into the sustainable development of the industry.Moreover, as the collaboration between both parties deepens, the development of AI technology in the healthcare sector is bound to drive the collaborative growth of the related industry chain, including areas such as medical device manufacturing, software development, and data analysis. The penetration of these technologies will undoubtedly bring innovative opportunities to the healthcare industry, opening new avenues for business value.Guided by the light of technology, the collaboration between Microware and GAREA TECH marks not only an important milestone in the application of AI in Hong Kong's primary healthcare sector but also a bold exploration of the intelligent transformation of the healthcare industry. Looking ahead, both parties will integrate their multifaceted resources to jointly promote the development of smart healthcare. Through the construction of an intelligent development framework, they will provide a new paradigm for the innovation of healthcare service models in Hong Kong and around the world, leading us into a new era of more intelligent and efficient healthcare services.
