ICC Case Connect powered by Opus 2 enables seamless, online case management to enhance efficiency and collaboration in arbitration

PARIS, April 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), home to the world’s leading arbitral institution, the ICC International Court of Arbitration, has launched a new version of ICC Case Connect that is now powered by Opus 2. This cutting-edge digital platform is designed to transform dispute resolution through streamlined workflows, secure collaboration, and enhanced case management capabilities. 

ICC Case Connect powered by Opus 2 will be available to users beginning 2 April 2025. 

This milestone marks a major step in ICC’s commitment to leveraging technology to improve arbitration efficiency for everyone, everywhere, every day.

“ICC Case Connect powered by Opus 2 modernises processes with a seamless platform for document sharing, case management, and ICC Court decisions — all in one place,” said Ana Serra e Moura, Deputy Secretary General of the ICC International Court of Arbitration. “It has been redesigned for the way business works today, helping dispute resolution become more efficient”, she added. 

Since the initial rollout of the first ICC Case Connect platform in 2022, ICC has continued to push towards increasingly powerful and transformative digital technologies. ICC’s collaboration with Opus 2, a trusted leader in legal case management software and hearings solutions worldwide, ensures the new platform refines case management processes with improved tools integrated within a more intuitive interface.  Future updates, including the integration of Amicable Dispute Resolution (ADR) cases, will further expand the platform’s capabilities.

ICC Case Connect powered by Opus 2 reinforces ICC’s mission of making dispute resolution more accessible, transparent, and effective. Serving over 10,000 party representatives and more than 8,000 arbitrators, the platform provides a secure, centralised, cloud-based environment where all stakeholders — parties, arbitral tribunals,  the ICC Secretariat and Court— can collaborate seamlessly and securely from anywhere in the world. 

The platform is calibrated to address the scale and complexity of ICC arbitration, adding more process efficiency from case initiation through to resolution, including:

Enhanced efiling: A user-friendly portal powers electronic submission and processing of arbitration requests, facilitating case progression and offering an integrated filing fee e-payment system.Secure digital document management: Centralised case files ensure real-time access, instant retrieval, and secure sharing of case information, documents, submissions and awards between parties, representatives, arbitrators and ICC.Dedicated party and arbitrator portals: Secure, role-specific portals provide a personalised experience, offering document access, case notifications and features tailored to user needs.Financial management: Integrated financial processes and built-in arbitrator expense management improve efficiency and facilitate financial oversight.Advanced administrative efficiencies: ICC operations, task management and decision-making workflows are optimised for greater efficiency and fluidity, improving the overall case management experience and ensuring arbitration proceedings remain on track.Customisable user accounts: Users can manage and personalise accounts, facilitating collaboration and enabling authorised administrative personnel to securely handle case administration tasks.Self-registration for arbitrators: A new feature allows prospective arbitrators to submit relevant information and increase their visibility towards ICC.

“We’re incredibly proud of what we have built with the ICC. Collaborating with them on this project has been a real pleasure,” said Charlie Harrel, Chief Operating Officer at Opus 2. “From having a clear, strategic vision to recognising the value of replacing multiple, redundant technologies with a single, purpose-built solution, ICC has been driving important advancements that elevate the quality of global dispute resolution proceedings. This aligns exactly with Opus 2’s vision. We are now uniquely able to support arbitration practitioners at any stage in proceedings, from case inception through ongoing case management, and of course, at the hearing itself.”

By

SYDNEY, Sept. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — TMGM and Chelsea Football Club today announced the extension of their partnership into a fourth year, with the collaboration expanding beyond Asia-Pacific into the Middle East.

Since 2023, TMGM has served as Chelsea FC’s Official Online Forex and CFD Trading Partner in Asia-Pacific. The extension advances a partnership spanning matchday visibility, original content and fan engagement.

Three Years of Shared Momentum

In 2026, the partnership reached a milestone when TMGM branding appeared on the back of Chelsea men’s match shirts during the FA Cup – a first in the club’s history. TMGM also joined Chelsea FC’s 2026 Asia-Pacific Pre-Season Tour as an Official Partner, with open training, pitch-side access and post-match tunnel experiences. The tour included a visit by Chelsea players Cole Palmer and João Pedro to TMGM’s Sydney headquarters.

Earlier in 2026, TMGM presented The Famous CFC in Bangkok, where hundreds of supporters attended a live match screening and an exclusive appearance by former Chelsea captain John Terry.

These milestones formed part of a wider programme of premium home-match hospitality, behind-the-scenes visits at Cobham and player-led content under TMGM’s “Trade like a lion” campaign.

A Broader Platform for Year Four

In year four, TMGM’s expanded regional rights will support brand visibility at Chelsea home fixtures, original content featuring players and legends, regional digital campaigns and a China-focused performance series. The programme will also continue through The Famous CFC in selected markets and offer TMGM clients further hospitality and behind-the-scenes access across Chelsea’s matchday, stadium and training environments.

“Over three years, our relationship with Chelsea FC has evolved from regional activations to high-profile moments, including visibility on the club’s FA Cup shirts and its Asia-Pacific tour,” said TMGM. “Entering our fourth year and extending into the Middle East creates opportunities to connect with more audiences through experiences that reflect the ambition of both organisations.”

Chelsea Football Club said: “TMGM has focused on bringing its clients and our supporters closer to the club through digital-first content and in-person events across Asia-Pacific to great effect. We are pleased to extend the partnership into a fourth year and look forward to building on its momentum across the region and also the Middle East.”

Ridgeway Pharmacy Statement Regarding Website Security Incident Involving Third-Party Vendor

September 21, 2026

By

VICTOR, Mont., Sept. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Ridgeway Pharmacy, Ltd. (“Ridgeway”) is providing notice of an incident involving its pharmacy website, which was developed by a third-party vendor. Ridgeway identified operational issues on the website and promptly began an investigation with the assistance of external cybersecurity and forensic specialists. That investigation determined that a vulnerability in the vendor-supported website allowed an unknown third party to access the site using elevated privileges, and that certain information may have been accessible as a result. On August 21, 2026, Ridgeway determined that the information potentially involved may have included name, date of birth, address, prescription information, health information, insurance information, and, for a portion of the individuals, payment card information. Importantly, at no time did this incident involve Ridgeway’s internal systems.

Ridgeway takes the privacy and security of information seriously and holds the third parties that support its services to that same standard. Upon learning of this matter, Ridgeway secured and remediated the affected website, stood up a new platform, further restricted access, strengthened monitoring, implemented additional protections against unauthorized activity, and reported the incident to federal law enforcement.

Written notice has been mailed to individuals whose information may have been involved, and out of an abundance of caution Ridgeway is offering complimentary identity protection services through TransUnion, a leading identity protection provider. As a general precaution, individuals are encouraged to review their account statements, health plan explanations of benefits, and credit reports for any unfamiliar activity, to enroll in the complimentary services described in their notification letter, and to report any unusual activity to their financial institution.

Individuals with questions may call Ridgeway’s dedicated toll-free assistance line at 1-833-516-7133, available 8am – 8pm (ET).
