on

Bridgewise’s groundbreaking AI-powered financial investment analysis solutions for global securities will be made available for all Rakuten Securities customers.The development is the global financial research intelligence company’s second launch in the Japan market – its first being a partnership with the JPX Market Innovation & Research Inc. announced in March this year.

NEW YORK and SINGAPORE, Nov. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bridgewise, the financial investment intelligence platform for global securities, announced today a strategic partnership with Rakuten Securities Inc. (‘Rakuten Securities”) to launch its AI-powered financial investment analysis solutions for its customers. From spring 2025, this partnership will include the provision of Bridgewise’s AI-powered investment intelligence services to over 11 million Rakuten Securities customers, with further innovative features set to be rolled out later in the year.

Since its latest $21-million funding, backed by global investors such as SIX Group, Group 11, L4 Venture Builder and other global financial institutions, Bridgewise has been rapidly developing its product offerings and market expansions, with Asia Pacific as a key growth region. 

The strategic partnership with Rakuten Securities for the Japan market marks the shared values between both companies in providing relevant, cutting-edge innovations for investors. Bridgewise was founded on the vision to enable financial institutions and trading platforms empower investors around the globe to make informed decisions in any language and any market. Currently, investment analysis tends to cover only 20% of global stocks and concentrated on a select group of stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) across three stock exchanges. This leaves a significant amount of unrealized investment potential for many retail investors and advisors. The Bridgewise platform analyzes fundamental data and rating as well as investment recommendations on over 90% of global equities and funds, including ETFs, stocks, and mutual funds. Since its founding in 2019, Bridgewise is now available in more than 25 languages and across 15 markets and has a coverage of more than 50,000 global financial instruments.

Kelvin Phua, General Manager of Bridgewise APAC, says, “We are extremely pleased to mark our second milestone in Japan with this partnership with Rakuten Securities. As a financial brokerage platform known for its dedication to provide innovative solutions that cater to its customers’ financial well-being, we are proud to partner with Rakuten Securities and to present our AI-powered financial analysis to its customers. We look forward to empowering more Japanese investors make informed decisions across a more diverse and increasingly-global investment landscape.”

Bridgewise’s partnership with Rakuten Securities is its second development in the Japan market within the last 12 months, following the establishment of the Singapore-based Asia Pacific team. This announcement underscores Bridgewise’s focus on Asia Pacific as a strategic priority, with its established presence in the United Arab Emirates, as well as its sights set on rapid growth in Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia.  

In addition to market expansion, Bridgewise has also been rolling out new products and innovations to continually serve the evolving needs of institutional and retail investors around the world. Some of its recent product offerings and innovations include:

Bridgewise Bridget™, the world’s first conversational AI investment tool that offers investment insights, including specific buy/sell recommendations for stocks. BRIDGET™ also addresses several key AI chatbot-related drawbacks, such as a lack of finance-focused expertise and hallucinations. As one of the world’s few financial investment intelligence platforms focused on serving the institutional investment sector, Bridgewise’s  BRIDGET™ is a game-changer for financial institutions looking to stay ahead in a rapidly evolving sector, and to empower their analysts and investors to interact with data in a more intuitive and insightful manner.

Bridgewise FundWise, its Fund Analysis solution powered by dual AI technologies – machine learning analysis of the global equities it covers and a custom Micro Language Model (MLM). FundWise is able to provide bottom-up analysis and break down funds into their constituent assets and provide a detailed analysis of each one, as well as buy/sell recommendations. This enables institutional investors more accuracy for investments and overcomes a long-standing challenge of a lack of data to analyze the risk and performance of a fund of which the underlying holdings are unknown.

Bridgewise ESG Analysis, offers the broadest ESG coverage in the market for the institutional investors. With 120 ESG parameters and covering 16,000 global stocks, this solution a performance breakdown of key factors for each ESG dimension, in addition to an aggregate score derived from S&P and publicly available information and industry comparison scores (i.e. compares companies within the same industry, and enables contextual evaluation relative to peers).

Mission Critical Partners Announces Launch of its Justice Integration Hub in Support of the City of New Orleans

Published

on

By

The $30 million ARPA-funded initiative connects public-safety and justice agencies, accelerates case processing and improves service to the community.

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Mission Critical Partners today announced the launch of its Justice Integration Hub in support of the city of New Orleans’ Justice Technology Modernization Program (JTMP). JTMP is a multiyear initiative that replaced several decades-old systems with a unified, cloud-based platform designed to improve public safety and access to justice by streamlining operations and strengthening transparency across the city and Orleans Parish criminal-justice ecosystem.

“The Justice Integration Hub is not just a technology milestone; it’s a fundamental shift in how justice is delivered,” said Darrin Reilly, president and CEO, Mission Critical Partners.

The Justice Integration Hub facilitates the seamless flow of information throughout the Parish’s complex criminal-justice ecosystem. Funded through a $30 million allocation from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), JTMP represents one of the most comprehensive justice technology overhauls in the country, modernizing and transforming more than 40 years of legacy infrastructure. The program integrates the area’s entire criminal justice ecosystem — including the New Orleans Police Department, Orleans Parish Sheriff’s Office and Justice Center, District Attorney, Public Defender, Criminal District Court, and Clerk of Court — into a single, connected environment.

“The integration hub fundamentally changes how our justice agencies work together,” said Nathaniel Weaver, JTMP director. “Instead of information stopping at the boundaries between agencies, it can move securely in real time, allowing people to spend less time reentering data and more time making the decisions that move cases forward.”

From Fragmentation to Real-Time Coordination

For years, criminal-justice agencies in New Orleans and Orleans Parish operated on outdated, siloed systems that limited collaboration, slowed case processing, and created cross-department inefficiencies.

The Justice Enterprise Hub is built on Microsoft Azure and leverages a standardized enterprise data model aligned with national data-sharing models. A secure integration hub enables real-time data sharing across agencies, ensuring that critical information is accessible when and where it is needed.

Immediate Impact Across the Community

The Justice Enterprise Hub already is helping to deliver measurable improvements:

Patrol officers now have additional hours each week to spend in New Orleans communities and respond to emergencies due to more efficient digital arrest-processing workflows.Data sharing from the jail to the court facilitates automated creation of cases and scheduling of court appearances, saving approximately 6,000 hours of time clerks would spend on data entry.Faster information sharing between agencies is helping reduce hearing delays, streamline inmate transport coordination, and improve overall justice system efficiency. This significantly reduces incarceration costs and generates measurable operational savings.

A Foundation for the Future of Justice

With the core platform now fully operational, New Orleans and Orleans Parish are positioned to build on this foundation with advanced capabilities, including AI-assisted case processing, digital evidence management, and expanded state-level data integration.

“The Justice Integration Hub is not just a technology milestone; it’s a fundamental shift in how justice is delivered,” said Darrin Reilly, MCP’s president and CEO. “New Orleans and Orleans Parish now have a nation-leading, scalable, and future-ready system that enables agencies to work together more effectively and collaboratively to better serve the public. We look forward to bringing this solution to more communities across the nation.”

The system was implemented in four phases, following a competitive nationwide process that selected Mission Critical Partners and Major Services, a New Orleans-based IT consulting firm, to oversee JTMP’s development, implementation, and coordinated go-live activities across all participating agencies. Those four phases went live in succession, between November 2025 and April 2026.

MadeAi Launches Dossier Expert, Bringing Agentic AI to Formulary and Value Dossier Development

New AI-powered solution transforms dossier creation and maintenance with source-level traceability, cross-functional collaboration, and up to 70% faster authoring and updates

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — MadeAi™, a leader in AI-enabled evidence synthesis and life sciences solutions, today announced the launch of MadeAi Dossier Expert, a new AI-powered solution designed to transform how pharmaceutical and life sciences organizations create, review, and maintain formulary and value dossiers.

Traditionally, developing AMCP dossiers, global value dossiers, and health technology assessment (HTA) submissions requires months of coordination across HEOR, Clinical, Market Access, and Medical Writing teams. Evidence is dispersed across multiple sources, citations require extensive manual verification, and updates often trigger lengthy rounds of rewriting and review.

Dossier Expert replaces this fragmented process with a living, evidence-linked document that evolves as the underlying science changes.

Built to address one of the most time-consuming challenges facing Market Access and HEOR teams, Dossier Expert brings evidence management, AI-assisted authoring, citation verification, and cross-functional collaboration into a single, continuously updated environment.

From Static Documents to Living Evidence

Unlike traditional dossier authoring approaches that focus primarily on accelerating initial drafts, Dossier Expert is designed to streamline the entire dossier lifecycle—from first creation through ongoing evidence updates.

Key capabilities include:

AI-Powered Dossier Generation: Create structured AMCP, HTA, and value dossiers using customizable templates and AI-generated, evidence-grounded content.One-Click Citation Verification: Trace every AI-generated claim directly to its source document, with the supporting passage highlighted for immediate verification.Intelligent Evidence Updates: Automatically identify sections affected by changes in underlying evidence and selectively regenerate outdated content without overwriting human edits.Integrated Evidence Hub: Organize and connect indexed source materials directly to relevant dossier sections.Integrated MadeAi-LR: Access AI-enabled literature review directly for in-platform literature review support.Seamless Collaboration: Enable HEOR, Clinical, Market Access, and Medical Writing teams to work within one document, with built-in commenting, assignments, approvals, and version control.Flexible, Submission-Ready Outputs: Export approved dossiers to Word or PDF.

Accelerating Market Access Without Compromising Scientific Rigor

Dossier Expert is designed to deliver up to 70% faster dossier authoring and updates, while reducing the manual effort associated with evidence verification, document management, and recurring revisions.

“Creating a dossier is only part of the challenge. Keeping it scientifically current, fully traceable, and aligned across multiple stakeholders is where organizations lose enormous amounts of time,” said Gaugarin Oliver, Founder and CEO of MadeAi. “With Dossier Expert, we’re moving beyond AI-generated first drafts to a fundamentally different model: a living dossier that connects every claim to its evidence, identifies what needs updating, and enables experts to focus on scientific judgment rather than document administration.”

By combining AI-powered efficiency with human oversight and transparent source verification, Dossier Expert helps life sciences organizations accelerate evidence communication while maintaining the rigor required for payer and HTA engagement.

MadeAi™ is an award-winning AI-native evidence synthesis and life sciences solutions platform designed to help pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device organizations accelerate evidence generation and scientific communication.
