TVM Capital Healthcare Announces the Opening of Baraya Extended Care’s First Outpatient Rehabilitation Clinic in Riyadh

Published

on

This is the first of nine inpatient and outpatient facilities planned for Baraya across KSA, addressing a gap of 26,000 long-term post-acute care and rehabilitation beds

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, March 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Baraya Extended Care KSA has launched its first rehabilitation outpatient clinic in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, offering physical, occupational, speech and language therapy, plus advanced and intensive rehabilitation services. The clinic has the capacity to provide 3,000 rehabilitation sessions per month.

Saudi Arabia faces a significant shortage of long-term post-acute care (LTPAC) and rehabilitation beds. Consequently, this area has been identified as a key priority of Vision 2030 to enhance the healthcare sector. As public hospitals are experiencing capacity constraints, dedicated LTPAC and rehabilitation facilities represent a better way to improve patients’ lives and alleviate the burden on hospitals.

Baraya is a portfolio company of TVM Capital Healthcare’s new fund in KSA, a highly specialised global healthcare investment firm operating in the Middle East since 2009. The firm has an excellent track record and extensive expertise in specialty care and extended care, as the founders of ProVita International Medical Center and Cambridge Medical & Rehabilitation Center.

Looking ahead, Baraya’s second outpatient clinic will open in Jeddah in April 2024. Its first in-patient long-term care hospital is currently under construction and expected to open in Abha by the end of 2025 with a capacity of 216 beds. The long-term care facility will offer specialised services for Saudi’s ageing population suffering from chronic and complex conditions, as well as the younger population who have experienced catastrophic injury or with congenital diseases.

Jad Halaby, Chief Executive of Baraya Extended Care, said: “Our mission is to provide a comprehensive range of services from long-term care and ventilated long-term care to intensive rehabilitation and home healthcare – accessible through a variety of facilities, including clinics and hospitals. We are committed to addressing the critical need for extended care services in the Kingdom. Through our initial nine facilities across three regions (Riyadh, Jeddah, and Abha), we will leverage TVM Capital Healthcare’s expertise to deliver cutting-edge solutions aligned with Vision 2030’s healthcare goals, improving the lives of patients and families in Saudi Arabia by providing exceptional extended care services.

Dr. Helmut M. Schuehsler, Chairman and CEO of TVM Capital Healthcare, added: “as one of the earliest global healthcare funds operating in the Kingdom since 2015, we have worked hard to bring models that address the greatest needs in KSA private healthcare, and we appreciate the continuous support of the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Investment in our efforts. Through companies like Provita International Medical Center and Cambridge Medical & Rehabilitation Center, we have been impacting the sector in the UAE and Saudi Arabia for around 14 years, and our new company, Baraya Extended Care is a key step to support the Health Sector Transformation Program. As always, we bring world-class clinical and technical partners to support our activities with their knowledge, standard operating procedures, education and training programmes.”

Othman Abahussein, TVM Capital Healthcare Saudi Operating Partner, concluded: “Baraya emerges as a transformative initiative developed by TVM Capital Healthcare. As a leading provider of rehabilitation and long-term care services, Baraya Extended Care addresses critical gaps within the healthcare sector, ensuring that every individual receives the care they deserve. As investors and residents of the Kingdom, we are excited about the potential of this project to profoundly impact lives, empowering our communities to achieve the quality of life they aspire to.”

From Remote Racing to Embodied AI: Fibocom and Intedigo Bring 5G Bidirectional Data Transmission into Real-World Applications

Published

on

By

SHANGHAI, July 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — From July 17 to 20, Fibocom and Intedigo will jointly present a cross-regional, beyond-visual-line-of-sight (BVLOS) teleoperation demonstration at Booth H3-C408 during the World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) 2026. Visitors will be able to enter a remote driving cockpit and control a real race car located at HURA PARK in Jiading, Shanghai, steering, accelerating, and braking in real time while experiencing how 5G connectivity enables remote operation.

More than an immersive driving experience, the demonstration provides a live validation of 5G bidirectional data transmission for embodied AI teleoperation. The vehicle continuously sends live track video, vehicle status, and operating data to the remote cockpit, while control commands are transmitted back to the vehicle, creating a closed-loop teleoperation system. Stable, low-latency, and highly reliable connectivity is essential for high-dynamic maneuvers such as high-speed cornering, precision braking, and continuous lane changes.

Developed by Intedigo, the remote driving system connects a real race car with an immersive remote driving cockpit. It supports 1080p@60Hz video transmission, glass-to-glass (G2G) video latency of less than 80 ms, and control latency of less than 10 ms. The demanding racing environment magnifies differences in video continuity and control responsiveness, making communications performance directly perceptible, measurable, and verifiable.

At the joint demonstration, Fibocom’s FM160 5G module provides cellular connectivity for the system. Powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon™ X62 5G Modem-RF System, the FM160 supports SA and NSA network architectures as well as 3GPP Release 16. On the downlink, it supports NR Carrier Aggregation (NR CA) with bandwidth of up to 120 MHz, delivering peak speeds of up to 3.5 Gbps in NSA mode and 2.5 Gbps in SA mode. On the uplink, it supports UL MIMO and delivers peak speeds of up to 900 Mbps in SA mode. These capabilities support the continuous transmission of HD video and vehicle status data, along with reliable delivery of control commands.

As embodied AI moves into factories, data centers, logistics operations, and industrial parks, robots are becoming increasingly capable of performing tasks autonomously. Yet complex environments, unexpected events, and edge cases still require Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) remote intervention to help ensure safe and reliable operation.

Daniel Liu, CEO of Intedigo, said:

“5G represents the pinnacle of human communications and the starting point of machine communications. In the past, communications connected people to people; in the future, they will connect people to robots and robots to robots. Remote racing is simply the easiest entry point for people to understand this concept. What we are truly validating is a communications system capable of supporting remote collaboration for embodied AI. HURA makes low-latency remote driving a tangible experience, while RoBOX extends this capability to robots and a broader range of intelligent terminals. Together with Fibocom, we hope to enable more machines to receive remote assistance whenever needed while remaining continuously connected and operating reliably.”

Simon Tao, VP of Wireless Solutions Business Group and General Manager of MBB BU at Fibocom, said:

“As embodied AI enters real-world industrial environments, reliable connectivity will become the foundation for telemetry feedback, remote control and operational management. Fibocom’s 5G solutions, represented by FM160, provide the cellular connectivity required for continuous on-site data transmission and reliable control command delivery. Fibocom will continue collaborating with ecosystem partners such as Intedigo to bring cellular connectivity to more robots, autonomous machines and mobile intelligent terminals, enabling embodied AI systems to stay continuously connected and respond reliably in real-world applications.”

From remote race cars to robots, unmanned equipment, and mobile intelligent terminals, 5G is evolving from connecting people to connecting machines. This joint demonstration makes the capabilities of 5G bidirectional data transmission directly perceptible, experiential, and verifiable, helping pave the way for embodied AI to scale across real-world applications.
