Elevating Workplace Wellness Through Clinically Crafted Solutions

COLUMBUS, Ohio, July 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Ivím Health, a leading provider of GLP-1 weight loss programs, is launching Ivím at Work. This first-of-its-kind corporate wellness program, focused on optimizing weight management and elevating employee health and productivity, is created in partnership with Xevant, a leading provider of custom data analytics and insurance claims processing solutions. A breakthrough in workplace wellness, this program stands out by offering personalized GLP-1 weight management therapies, supported by a comprehensive, dedicated care team and tailored to the modern workforce.

Ivím Health aims to transform workplace wellness. “We’re creating a new gold standard for employee health benefit programs,” said Ivím’s Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Taylor Kantor. “Ivím at Work meets the growing need of a GLP-1 benefits program that can both manage supply chain constraints while lowering GLP-1 medication pricing. But medical weight loss is more than just medication. The program combines the benefits of GLP-1 medications with expert medical insights to deliver unique, data-driven and outcome-based personalized care, ensuring every patient receives the support they need in the form in which they need it.”

Developed by a team of medical experts, Ivím’s corporate program leverages the latest breakthroughs in obesity care and medical technology for health improvement. Dr. Jessica Cortazzo, Ivím’s Medical Director and a diplomate of the American Board of Obesity Medicine (ABOM), went on to highlight, “Our approach to medical weight loss utilizes customized GLP-1 care plans that significantly improve employee biomarkers, enhance employee well-being, engagement, and company performance, while also providing significant cost savings through claims reductions and rebate programs to both employers and employees. It’s a win-win for everyone.”

Through the recently announced partnership with Xevant, Ivím at Work now provides real-time data to employers on program utilization, group health outcomes, and cost savings analysis. By targeting health risks and providing measurable health improvements, the corporate program offers companies a strong negotiation position for lowering premiums. In addition, through the shortages currently being faced in GLP-1 supply chains, Ivím’s corporate programs offer differentiated supply chain access to provide greater GLP-1 medication access to employees.

Ivím tailors each corporate program to align with the company’s health goals, engaging employees through interactive sessions and digital platforms. Continuous support and optimization ensure the program’s success in promoting improved health and productivity.

Infineon wins patent infringement case against Innoscience

Published

June 18, 2026

MUNICH, June 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The District Court Munich, Germany (Landgericht München I) today ruled in favor of Infineon Technologies in two further of the patent infringement cases – specifically one based on a patent one based on a utility model – concerning gallium nitride (GaN) technology between Infineon and Innoscience.

The cases concern the unauthorized use of GaN technologies patented by Infineon by the Chinese company Innoscience. With today’s rulings, the court prohibits Innoscience from manufacturing, selling, and marketing additional patent-infringing products in Germany. Furthermore, the court has ordered Innoscience to pay damages to Infineon.

This marks Innoscience’s third and fourth legal defeat in a series of court cases, each of which found that Innoscience’s products infringe Infineon’s patents. Courts and authorities in both Germany and the United States have repeatedly concluded that Innoscience’s products infringe Infineon’s intellectual property rights. Prior rulings include the decision against Innoscience from August 1, 2025, in an initial German proceeding. Furthermore, on May 7, the Full Commission of the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) found that Innoscience had infringed an Infineon patent in the field of gallium nitride (GaN) technology. Additional proceedings regarding the infringement of other Infineon patents are pending in the U.S. and Germany.

GaN plays a pivotal role in enabling high-performance and energy-efficient power systems in a broad range of applications, including renewable energy systems, data centers, industrial automation, and electric vehicles (EVs).

“Today’s ruling demonstrates the value of our GaN portfolio and underscores our commitment to vigorously defending our intellectual property and promoting fair competition,” said Johannes Schoiswohl, Senior Vice President and Head of Infineon’s GaN Systems Business Line.

Infineon continuously strengthens its position as a leading integrated device manufacturer (IDM) in the GaN market with the industry’s broadest IP portfolio, comprising approximately 450 GaN patent families. The company remains dedicated to fostering innovation and advancing semiconductor technology to address the world’s most pressing challenges, from decarbonization to digital transformation.

The Company had around 57,000 employees worldwide (end of September 2025) and generated revenue of about €14.7 billion in the 2025 fiscal year (ending 30 September).

Aquarius.io Launches Press AI & PR Spotlight: Your New AI Team

They Call it “The Unfair Advantage”.

LOS ANGELES, Jun 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ —

Talent is not enough without a team.

Most people do not lose because they lack talent. They lose because they do not have a team behind them. Aquarius is out to change that. Two new tools, Press AI and PR Spotlight, put a full news team and a full marketing department in one person’s hands. It is the kind of firepower everyone needs go scale. See it all at Aquarius.io.

Press AI: a full news team for one person

Press AI is a full news team for one person. Give it a story and it researches live sources, checks the facts, turns your interviews into clean, quotable transcripts, and hands back a finished piece with sources attached, ready to file. It does the work of an entire team, so one reporter can chase more leads, break more stories, and beat every deadline.

“Talent is everywhere. The team behind it is not,” said Chaela Harrell, a co-founder of Aquarius. “Aquarius gives one person the power of a whole company. We are your unfair advantage.”

PR Spotlight: your own marketing department

PR Spotlight is a full marketing department in a single tool. Answer a few questions and it researches your brand, then builds investor grade pitch decks and complete media kits, designs your logo, and even handles your contracts, letting you upload, send, sign, and receive them through DocuSign. Together, Press AI and PR Spotlight do the work of an entire team, putting serious media and marketing power in anyone’s hands. Press AI and PR Spotlight are available now at Aquarius.io. Take a look, test it and see what the hype is about.

The rest of the Aquarius family

Press AI and PR Spotlight join a whole family of Aquarius tools: Muse Lab for image and video, Chronicles for cinematic storytelling, Viral AI for social content, and Aria, a voice driven executive assistant. The platform is self serve, so you only pay for what you make. Every tool is built on one idea: give one person the team they never had. That is your unfair advantage.

Press AI and PR Spotlight are the next step in what Aquarius set out to do: put professional grade tools in the hands of the people who were never handed a team.
