Published

on

LONDON, Oct. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — BioCorteX, a leading biotech innovator, today formally announced a breakthrough in the field of Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs) for cancer treatment, achieved by leveraging Google Cloud technology. Through its advanced ‘Unified Biology’ approach, cutting-edge technology, and the power of Google Cloud’s scalable infrastructure, BioCorteX has discovered a crucial link between the tumour microenvironment and ADC efficacy, potentially transforming the landscape of personalised cancer therapy.

As described by BioCorteX, ADCs have shown immense promise in targeted cancer treatment, but their effectiveness has been hampered by a lack of understanding of why they fail in many patients. BioCorteX’s research, enabled by Google Cloud’s technology, has uncovered a critical piece of the puzzle: the interaction between bacteria residing within tumours and ADCs. This discovery could significantly improve the success rate of clinical trials and lead to more effective treatments for a wider range of patients.

“BioCorteX’s groundbreaking research has the potential to revolutionise ADC development and cancer treatment,” said Dr Nik Sharma, BioCorteX, CEO. “By leveraging our ”Unified Biology’ approach, powerful technology platform, and Google Cloud’s scalable infrastructure, we are uncovering the hidden complexities of cancer biology and paving the way for more precise and effective therapies.”

BioCorteX’s ‘Unified Biology’ approach integrates vast amounts of biological data, enabling a comprehensive understanding of the complex interactions within the tumour microenvironment. This approach, combined with the company’s advanced Carbon Knowledge™ and Carbon Mirror™ technologies, and Google Cloud’s ability to process massive datasets rapidly and efficiently, allows for faster and more accurate insights.

Carbon Knowledge™ is an extraordinarily large biology-based knowledge graph with over 3bn nodes and 16bn edges, stored on BigQuery. Carbon Mirror™ is a foundational emulator, which builds on Carbon Knowledge™ to uncover hidden interactions between bacteria, human physiology, diseases, and drugs.

Adrian Poole, Director, Digital Natives UKI, Google Cloud said: “Cancer, a complex and multifaceted disease, remains one of the most formidable challenges in modern medicine. We are proud to support BioCorteX’s groundbreaking research with the power of Google Cloud’s infrastructure. This collaboration exemplifies the potential of cloud computing and advanced analytics to accelerate scientific discovery and transform the field of medicine.”

BioCorteX’s research using these technologies has been recognized with prestigious awards, including the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) award, and is attracting significant attention from the scientific and medical communities. The company is actively collaborating with leading pharmaceutical companies, research institutions, and technology partners like Google Cloud to further develop and apply its discoveries to the development of next-generation ADC therapies.

With its revolutionary approach, discoveries, and collaborations with technology companies like Google Cloud, BioCorteX is poised to lead the way in personalized cancer treatment and make a significant impact on the lives of patients worldwide.

Osome Eyes the Next Wave of AI Companies Choosing Singapore

Published

By

SINGAPORE, HONG KONG and LONDON, July 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Osome, the AI company management platform trusted by more than 50,000 tech founders and solopreneurs globally, is strengthening its support for the next wave of AI companies choosing Singapore as their regional base.

Singapore’s appeal continues to grow as leading AI companies establish a stronger presence. OpenAI has committed S$300 million (US$234 million) to the country’s AI ecosystem, while Cognition has established its APAC headquarters there. Anthropic and Tencent are also increasing their presence in Singapore.

Budget 2026 reinforces this momentum with a National AI Impact Programme, a new Kampong AI hub at one-north, and a 400% tax deduction on qualifying AI investments. Foreign companies can access these incentives by incorporating a Private Limited Company, which allows 100% foreign ownership and startup tax rates as low as 10% under the Startup Tax Exemption.

As more AI-native startups choose Singapore to build lean, global businesses, Osome helps founders navigate the process. Operating across Singapore, Hong Kong, the UK, and the UAE, it enables founders to incorporate a company as fast as 7 days while managing back-office operations, including accounting, bookkeeping, and compliance.

Building on that support, Osome recently launched its Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, turning founders’ preferred AI assistants into a business command center. Through Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini, founders can securely retrieve transactions, shareholder records, financial reports, and other company data from a single AI interface.

AI-native & tech founders are already building with Osome. UpNComer‘s founder, Karan Dasgupta, incorporated his Singapore company within days of switching to Osome, saving “easily 20 hours” every month. Dubai-based Aesty and Hong Kong’s Angelflow have reported similar gains, cutting bookkeeping from around a week of work to just two hours a month.

Eugenio Ferrante, CEO of Osome, said: “A few years ago, building a global company required a 500-person team and a massive regional office. Today, a three-person AI startup can operate globally from Singapore with a laptop. The biggest threat isn’t competition, but administrative drag. With our new MCP server, you can manage your company’s finance and compliance via your AI assistant, leaving you free to focus on building and serving customers.”

About Osome

Osome is an AI company-management platform combining human expertise with automation for incorporation, accounting and tax compliance. Since 2017, it has served 50,000+ startups in Singapore, Hong Kong, the UK and the UAE. Learn more at osome.com.

LOS ANGELES, July 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Insta360 announced “Vibrez en Jaune” Pop-Up, a three-day cycling and creator event held in Paris from July 24 to July 26, 2026. Designed to coincide with the electric atmosphere of the Tour de France finale, the event culminated in a 200-rider takeover of the Parisian streets, bringing the spirit of professional cycling to everyday enthusiasts and urban explorers.

Built around the theme ‘Think Bold, Ride Bold,’ “Vibrez en Jaune” Pop-Up featured immersive pop-up experiences, hands-on creator workshops, and a sprawling group ride traversing the iconic 90km classic route from Versailles to the Champs-Élysées. The festival served as a celebration of cycling not just as a competitive sport, but as a vehicle for exploration, storytelling, and community connection.

A Festival of Content and Culture

The event kicked off on July 24 with a two-day hub of activity in the heart of Paris. Moving away from traditional retail experiences, Insta360 hosted a series of “Cycle & Create” workshops designed to lower the barrier to content creation.

Attendees gained access to on-site trial devices, allowing them to test out Insta360’s unique product ecosystem firsthand. Insta360 product experts were on hand to teach advanced cycling photography and videography techniques, ensuring riders knew exactly how to capture dynamic, hands-free POV footage of their urban commutes and weekend group rides.

The pop-up also served as a central gathering space for the community. Registered riders connected over coffee, collected their limited-edition Insta360 yellow cycling jerseys, and prepared for the weekend’s main event.

The Hero Moment: Taking Over the Streets of Paris

On Sunday, July 26, over 200 riders embarked on the “Vibrez en Jaune” Pop-Up main event. Organized in partnership with the Peloton Cycling Club, the group rode a 90km route inspired by the Tour de France Paris finale.

Beginning in Versailles, the group rode through the Paris city center before arriving at the Champs-Élysées. To ensure safety and an optimal experience, riders were organized into small, supervised packs of 20 to 25 across four distinct difficulty tiers—Spicy, Medium-Plus, Medium, and Mild—making the professional route accessible to a wide range of skill levels.

Select riders were equipped with Insta360 cameras to record immersive, first-person footage of the group as they navigated the historic streets, creating a collaborative, community-driven documentary of the ride.

Celebrating the Finish Line

The ride concluded at the Insta360 pop-up space for a vibrant after-party. As the actual Tour de France final stage was broadcast live on a giant screen, participants were treated to a professional DJ, refreshments, and finger food.

To reward the community, Insta360 hosted a drawing featuring premium cycling accessory bundles and high-value grand prizes, including the Insta360 GO Ultra Tadej Pogačar Edition and an exclusive jersey signed by the cycling champion himself.

Redefining Urban Exploration

Beyond the celebration of the sport, “Vibrez en Jaune” Pop-Up highlights the brand’s ongoing commitment to sustainable urban lifestyles. By encouraging people to rediscover their cities by bike, Insta360 aims to promote cycling as an accessible, low-carbon choice that allows individuals to experience urban life in a more mindful, connected way.
