Outcomes4Me’s evidence-based technology platform, powered by its integration with the NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines®), and engaged patient community of over 200,000 patients with cancer, coupled with the quality content and events that CURE® Media Group produces, establishes a first-of-its-kind collaboration. Together, Outcomes4Me and CURE® Media Group are now able to reach new patient audiences and expedite access to critical treatment options and personalized, relevant content.

Said, Sc.D., Founder and CEO of Outcomes4Me. “Now, we have the ability to provide access to the full archive of CURE® content to our patient community, sharing relevant and personalized resources, and we can also now access the CURE® patient community to rapidly disseminate the latest treatment innovation, benefiting our life sciences customers and also–most importantly–saving lives globally.”

“We’re proud of the patient audience we’ve built and the credibility and goodwill CURE® has fostered among patients with cancer and their loved ones,” said Robert Goldsmith, SVP of Corporate Development at MJH Life Sciences®, the parent company of CURE® Media Group. “Through our collaboration with Outcomes4Me, we’re building upon the rich heritage of our publishing and events businesses and joining forces with an innovative healthcare technology company. This collaboration increases the targeted, digital footprint of our patient-facing content and creates shared value for Outcomes4Me and CURE®’s joint, and standalone, pharmaceutical and diagnostic company customers.”

Under the terms of the agreement, Outcomes4Me will now have exclusive rights to distribute CURE® Media Group’s content on its platform. Additionally, both Outcomes4Me and CURE® Media Group will have mutually exclusive rights to commercialize their marketing offerings and solutions to life sciences companies across both platforms.

STEPHEN A. SMITH ADDRESSES WHITE HOUSE DINNER ATTENDANCE, REAFFIRMS COMMITMENT TO HBCUs AND PROTECTING CORPORATE INVESTMENT IN BLACK EDUCATION

Published

By

NEW YORK, Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Stephen A. Smith, media mogul, New York Times bestselling author, and proud 1991 graduate of Winston-Salem State University, is addressing the public discussion surrounding his decision to attend a White House dinner with President Donald Trump, emphasizing his commitment to the long-term financial stability of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

For Smith, the decision was rooted in a commitment to institutions that have educated generations of Black leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, and public servants.

“I will always advocate for HBCUs and the students whose futures depend on them,” Smith said. “My reason for attending the White House dinner was to discuss the challenges these institutions face in securing long-term funding and to make the case that corporate America must continue to invest in them.”

Smith acknowledged federal support through the FUTURE Act while expressing concern that political tensions surrounding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) could discourage private companies from supporting HBCUs. He maintains that these institutions deserve sustained corporate partnerships, philanthropic contributions, and public investment.

“If we truly believe in free-market capitalism, businesses should be able to support educational institutions and charitable causes without fear of criticism or repercussions,” Smith said. “HBCUs have made extraordinary contributions to this country. They deserve sustained public and private investment.”

Ashley Christopher, Esq., Founder and CEO of the HBCU Week Foundation, recognized Smith’s advocacy and decision to engage with the administration.

“Stephen A. Smith has been a powerful advocate for HBCUs, using his platform and influence to shine a national spotlight on our institutions,” expressed Christopher, “His continued support of HBCU Week helps advance our mission of connecting students with life-changing educational opportunities, and we are proud to have him as our ambassador.”

Since Smith became an HBCU Week Ambassador in 2019, the initiative has facilitated more than 15,000 on-the-spot college acceptances and raised and awarded more than $150 million in scholarships, according to the HBCU Week Foundation.

As public discussion continues, Smith is emphasizing the importance of ensuring HBCUs have the resources and partnerships needed to educate future generations and expand opportunities for students.
