LA ROCHE-POSAY IS THE OFFICIAL SUNSCREEN PARTNER OF THE MUBADALA CITI DC OPEN

Published

on

The worldwide expert in UV protection continues its SOS – Save Our Skin campaign to inform the public about the importance of practicing sun safe behaviors both on and off the court

NEW YORK, July 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — La Roche-Posay, the worldwide expert in advanced UV protection, is thrilled to announce its partnership as the official sunscreen partner of the Mubadala Citi DC Open. Research suggests sunburns are highly tied to physical activity and a large majority of people who were unintentionally sunburned, were participating in a sports or physical activity.1 The sponsorship aims to raise awareness for sun safe habits during everyday life, but especially while partaking in playing or viewing outdoor sports.

The Mubadala Citi DC Open, one of the oldest and most prestigious tournaments in tennis, will take place from July 27th to August 4th at Rock Creek Park Tennis Center in Washington, DC and is expected to bring in over 80,000 attendees. It is the only combined ATP & WTA 500 tournament in the world and the longest-running pro tennis event to be held in an equal-access public park. La Roche-Posay will have a Sun Safety Booth located across from Market Square next to the match and practice courts on the Southeastern end of the stadium court as well as two sampling kiosks at both the North and South entrances.

“We are excited to partner with the Mubadala Citi DC Open as the official sunscreen sponsor,” says Rachelle Mladjenovic, General Manager at La Roche-Posay. “La Roche-Posay has been dedicated to raising awareness for sun safe behaviors and early detection for nearly 15 years, and our sponsorship of the renowned Mubadala Citi DC Open allows us to showcase and promote this alongside best-in-class tennis matches.”

“We are excited to welcome La Roche-Posay as the official sunscreen partner of the Mubadala Citi DC Open,” says Mark Ein, Tournament Chairman. “As one of the nation’s most historic and popular tennis tournaments, the Mubadala Citi DC Open showcases the best men’s and women’s professional tennis players in the world and is one of Washington’s treasured summer traditions. Our event has experienced recent unprecedented growth, selling out four years in a row and bringing more than 80,000 attendees to Rock Creek Park each year. The partnership with La Roche-Posay, the leading experts in UV protection, is a wonderful one for our Mubadala Citi DC Open fans and exemplifies the continued evolution of this world-class tournament.”

The sponsorship of the Mubadala Citi DC Open will reinforce La Roche-Posay’s 2024 sunscreen campaign that aims to make Every Day A Sunscreen Day. One in five Americans will develop skin cancer by the age of 70, making early detection and daily sun protection key.2 La Roche-Posay is raising awareness of daily photoprotection practices as a matter of public health with their new sun campaign, Every Day Is A Sunscreen Day. The campaign proudly partners with U.S. tennis professionals Frances Tiafoe and Madison Keys and board-certified dermatologist Dr. Mamina Turegano to support the brand’s ongoing dedication to raising awareness of sun-safe behaviors, including daily sunscreen use on and off the tennis courts to help reduce the risk of skin cancer, the most common cancer in America.3

The Mubadala Citi DC Open will support La Roche-Posay’s Every Day Is A Sunscreen Day campaign during session 5 on Wednesday, July 31st, with enhanced, free product giveaways, on-court promotions, and leading the honorary coin toss to begin evening play.

LexisNexis Coplogic Solutions Introduces Field Clarity for LexisNexis® Desk Officer Reporting System (DORS) at IACP 2026

Published

on

By

A new, modern DORS and Field Clarity, the First AI-Guided Smartphone Video Assistant, Enhances Community Experience and Helps Improve Evidence, Case Building

ORLANDO, Fla., Oct. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LexisNexis® Coplogic™ Solutions today announced its modernized LexisNexis® Desk Officer Reporting System (DORS) community online reporting solution and the addition of DORS with Field Clarity, an AI-guided video assistant designed to improve field documentation accuracy and enable faster resolution by law enforcement agencies (LEAs). Field Clarity is designed to help community members submit reports to their local LEAs using DORS via intuitive step-by-step instructions. A hands-on experience for DORS with Field Clarity will be available for demonstration during the 2026 International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) annual conference.

“Agencies generally look to strategic partners like us not just for technology, but also for relief, reinforcement, and credibility across three tightly connected challenges: public expectation, workforce strain and digital evidence overload,” said Jason LaRue, associate vice president, LexisNexis Coplogic Solutions. “Our modernized LexisNexis Desk Officer Reporting System (DORS) helps agencies improve officer safety along with community member experiences. Field Clarity strengthens video evidence quality and digital evidence management to reduce friction and alleviate strain on a challenged workforce.”

Key Highlights
Integrated into LexisNexis® Desk Officer Reporting System (DORS), Field Clarity is the first AI-Guided video assistant for community member online reporting that:

Transforms data capture from passive intake into intelligent, guided capture to help create more positive officer and civilian mobile-first experiencesDrives more accurate field documentation, evidence and case building to help with faster resolution and enhanced public safetyBenefits civilians submitting reports with intuitive, step-by-step instructions, almost like having a digital assistant with them in real timeBenefits officers by bringing video, photos and scanned data together for a clearer picture of an event without the need to track down additional details

How the DORS with Field Clarity Solution Works
DORS allows each law enforcement agency to collect information directly from civilians on more than 200 incident types based on the needs of their community. DORS and Field Clarity make the filing of an online report experience easier by guiding users intuitively through each step of the process on their smartphone device, similar to having a personal digital assistant. Instead of asking a driver, for example, to fill out forms and guess what’s needed, the Field Clarity conversational interface prompts them to scan their driver’s license, capture a VIN or record a short walkaround video explaining what happened during the incident, all while capturing the data necessary to complete the report.

For civilians, being able to easily film on-scene evidence means less confusion and need for reentries or follow-up by the sworn officer responsible for approving reports. For officers, the benefits include cleaner, more complete accident reports and less time spent requesting and gathering additional details. With reports fed directly into the agency’s Record Management System (RMS), law enforcement also benefits from more efficient workflows and stronger documented cases for their investigators. DORS is used by nearly 600 agencies in North America, saving agencies approximately 900,000 personnel hours and $90 million annually*

“Trust in law enforcement is built one interaction at a time. Every opportunity for a community member to engage with their police department matters, including something as routine as filing a report,” said Sarah E. Connolly, co-founder of Guardian Communications, FBI-LEEDA instructor and retired Baltimore Police lieutenant and PIO. “When technology makes that process easier, improves the quality of information collected and supports a more responsive agency, it has the potential to do more than improve efficiency. It can help strengthen the relationship between law enforcement and the communities they serve.”

LexisNexis Coplogic Solutions delivers solutions and capabilities that can create a clearer line of sight from the field to law enforcement leadership, strengthening the connection between daily operations, workforce support, data management and community trust. DORS with Field Clarity is available through LexisNexis® Command Center, a single access point to the LexisNexis Coplogic Solutions data and analytics solutions suite, including LexisNexis®  BuyCrash®, LexisNexis® eCrash and LexisNexis® eCitation solutions. Coplogic Solutions also offers Unified Performance Dashboards for crash and citation mapping and illustrated visualizations, which connect field data with contextual insight in a single, coherent view – so law enforcement leaders can better understand and more confidently explain to their communities not just what is happening in near-real time, but also why.
