NATIONAL MS SOCIETY, COMMUNITY PARTNERS SHOW EARLY IMPACT IN CLOSING MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS CARE GAPS IN SOUTH CAROLINA

Published

on

Partnerships with the Medical University of South Carolina, Prisma Health, and the South Carolina Community Health Worker Association drive toward increased knowledge of MS care and patient support connections

NEW YORK, June 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The National Multiple Sclerosis Society today announced early progress in increasing access to comprehensive, quality care in South Carolina, where people living with MS travel an average of 66 miles to reach access to specialty care. These barriers can delay diagnosis and treatment, accelerating irreversible disease progression and disability.

The work in South Carolina is part of the National MS Society’s MS Care Desert Initiative, made possible through a historic sponsorship with Genentech, a member of the Roche Group. Building on more than 10 years of collaboration, this sponsorship represents Genentech’s largest corporate commitment to date for the Society’s healthcare access initiatives. Through Genentech’s broader sponsorship, the MS Care Desert Initiative specifically focuses on addressing critical gaps in MS care across the United States, with pilot programs in Wisconsin, South Carolina, and Mississippi, where specialty MS care is limited.

An estimated 14,800 people in South Carolina are currently living with MS. Nationally, nearly 23% of Americans live in an MS specialist desert.

“Geography should never determine the quality or timeliness of MS care,” said Leslie Ritter, SVP, Advocacy & Access to MS Care at the National MS Society. “What we’re seeing in South Carolina shows that when you invest in community-based efforts and strong partnerships, you can connect people to care faster. Every delay in diagnosis costs people function and independence—this work is helping change that.”

Building Infrastructure Where It Matters Most

In South Carolina, the National MS Society has partnered with Prisma Health, the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC), and the South Carolina Community Health Worker Association on distinct initiatives to build MS care capacity, train healthcare professionals, and connect patients to specialized support through the MS Navigator program — the Society’s personalized support service connecting people living with MS to information, resources and care.

In the year prior to the initiative, MUSC submitted just one referral to the Society’s MS Navigator program. Since launching in 2025, engagement and collaboration between the Society and the neuroimmunology team at MUSC through the initiative have increased that number to 270—demonstrating how stronger referral pathways and intentional outreach can rapidly connect patients to support.

“MS is a disease where early intervention can make a meaningful difference. The sooner we can connect someone to specialized care, the better their long-term outcomes. What we are building in South Carolina — through partnerships, community education and better referral pathways — aims to create a more connected and supportive journey for people living with MS,” said Sonia Kaur Singh, MD, Assistant Professor, Multiple Sclerosis and Neuroimmunology, Department of Neurology, Medical University of South Carolina.

Early impact in South Carolina:

Prisma Health:Launch of the first neurospecialized MS rehabilitation program within Prisma Health in the Midlands, including the creation of a Newly Diagnosed Support Group connecting patients to care and resourcesReferrals for people living with MS to neurospecialized rehabilitation through the MS Program have more than doubled compared to pre-initiativeMedical University of South Carolina:270 MS Navigator referrals from MUSC (up from one pre-launch)Women’s Health and Multiple Sclerosis through the Lifespan educational eventSouth Carolina Community Health Worker Association:Launched the development of MS-specific training for community health workers to expand patient-centered, culturally responsive care statewide and create a scalable national model.

A Partnership to Improve the Health and Journey of People living with MS in Neurology Deserts

The South Carolina pilot is part of a three-state initiative that also includes active programs in Wisconsin and Mississippi. Each pilot represents a distinct approach to addressing barriers to MS care— from leveraging comprehensive clinical data in Wisconsin to building provider education infrastructure through the Mississippi State Medical Association. Together, these pilots are helping identify scalable solutions to address MS care gaps nationwide.

“Every day without appropriate treatment matters when you’re living with MS. The work underway in South Carolina is critical to understanding how we can connect patients with specialty care much faster,” said David Jones, Senior Medical Director at Genentech. “Genentech is proud to partner with the National MS Society and its partners: MUSC, Prisma Health and the South Carolina Community Health Worker Association. By stripping away the hurdles to early diagnosis and treatment, we can truly transform long-term health outcomes and help people live healthier, fuller lives.”

As the National MS Society enters a bold new era in its 80th year, the South Carolina pilot reflects exactly the kind of transformative, systems-level work that will accelerate progress like never before.

MFour Adds Google Gemini to Its AI Conversation Data, Now Capturing 2.35 Million Consumer Conversations Every 30 Days

Published

on

By

MFour links each AI conversation to what the same consumer does next, online and in stores, for full journey intelligence.

IRVINE, Calif., Nov. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — MFour Data Research, Inc., provider of the largest mobile-app consumer panel in the U.S. and the only platform connecting surveys and behaviors for full journey intelligence from ChatGPT to checkout, has added Google Gemini. With Gemini joining ChatGPT, MFour now collects 2.35 million unique AI conversations every 30 days, containing 10.1 million consumer-generated messages.

MFour connects ChatGPT and Gemini conversations to what the same consumers do next, online and in stores.

Brands and agencies can access this dataset of real human prompts and responses in two ways: by licensing it directly or by asking DANI™, MFour’s AI-powered analyst, to produce boardroom-ready reports at whatever depth the research requires. DANI can run autonomously for hours, sifting through billions of signals to surface the insights that matter and recommend next steps, taking researchers from question to outcome with a single prompt.

To uncover the motivations behind the behavior, DANI can even survey the same consumers who contributed the data, connecting what consumers do with why they do it in a single workflow.

Each LLM conversation is linked to the same consumer’s demographics, web browsing, app usage, GPS-verified store visits, purchases and survey responses. This gives brands a fuller view of how consumers research products and make decisions, including what they do before and after asking AI for advice.

The Gemini data is captured at the account level, covering conversations in the Gemini app on any mobile device as well as in any desktop browser.

“AI is changing where brands win or lose consideration. If you can’t see those conversations, you’re missing a critical part of the buying decision,” said Chris St. Hilaire, CEO of MFour Data Research. “Adding Gemini expands that visibility beyond ChatGPT, revealing how consumers interact with AI and what they do next online or in-store.”

All of this data comes from MFour’s first-party panel, whose members opt in to share behavioral data across the entire path to purchase. Under MFour’s ethical, fair-trade practices, panelists are compensated both for sharing their data and for taking surveys.

About MFour Data Research

MFour Data Research, founded in 2011, provides validated, opt-in consumer behavior and survey data powered by its Surveys On The Go® app and Fair Trade Data® model. The company’s 14M+ consumer panel generates nine deterministic data streams — AI conversations across ChatGPT and Gemini, location, app usage, web browsing, receipts, demographics, attitudes, survey responses and behavior-triggered surveys — all connected to a single identity.

Through MFour Studio™, organizations can access these behavioral and survey signals to understand consumer journeys and measure outcomes, with DANI™ (Data Analytics Navigation Instructor), MFour’s AI assistant, providing on-demand analysis across 4 billion monthly buyer signals. MFour is trusted by Samsung, Google, Amazon Ads, Microsoft, Hulu, Keurig Dr Pepper, Papa Johns and hundreds of other global brands.

Astribot Reaches RMB 15 Billion Valuation After Four Funding Rounds, Highlights Scaling Deliveries and Profitability at Hong Kong FinTech Week

Published

on

By

HONG KONG, Nov. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Alex Fang, Co-founder and Chief Financial Officer of Astribot, an embodied AI company, attended the China-Global Innovation Forum during Hong Kong FinTech Week x StartmeupHK 2026, alongside industry and investment representatives from Kinetix AI, KEENON Robotics and Yunqi Partners. Under the theme “From Components to Systems: Identifying the Primary Bottleneck in Robotics Industrialization,” they jointly explored the core bottlenecks in robotics industrialization, pathways to large-scale deployment, and sustainable business models.

As AI moves beyond the digital world into physical environments, the embodied AI industry is reaching a pivotal stage in its transition from technological demonstrations to commercial deployment at scale. The industry’s next test is whether robotics companies can deliver products consistently in volume, secure repeat business and balance heavy research and development spending with commercial returns.

At the forum, Fang said Astribot has prioritized product development and commercialization since its founding. The company has moved through successive stages of technological demonstrations, small-batch manufacturing and repeat orders, while making progress on hardware gross margins for certain products. Looking ahead, Astribot will focus on scaling its operations, improving cost efficiency, strengthening delivery capabilities and accelerating technological development.

Thousand-Unit Orders Across Multiple Applications Put Commercial Viability to the Test

According to Fang, Astribot has secured multiple repeat orders from developer and commercial service customers since beginning mass production in 2025. Delivery volumes for certain customers have also grown steadily in specific applications. Meanwhile, the company is exploring paid software offerings as a way to generate additional revenue beyond hardware sales.

Fang noted that higher delivery volumes could help the company reduce supply chain costs, improve manufacturing consistency and better manage after-sales expenses. Applying the same underlying technologies across different use cases could also support stronger gross margins.

From the outset, Astribot has sought to position robots as a gateway to Physical AI. By developing its robotic hardware, operating system and AI models together, the company aims to make it easier for users and developers to build a wider range of applications. As deployments expand, Astribot plans to draw on operational data and experience from real-world settings to refine its products and AI models, laying the groundwork for broader adoption.

Astribot previously disclosed that its flagship S-series robots began securing orders at the thousand-unit scale in September 2025. Shipments of its next-generation T1 humanoid robot began in June 2026, with prices starting at RMB 89,900. The company has also stated that its S and T series have a combined production capacity of around 10,000 units, providing a manufacturing base for further expansion.

Astribot’s products are already being used across retail, tourism and cultural services, industrial operations, research and education. Its in-house-developed Robot MART has been rolled out in six Chinese cities, including Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, since November 2025, as the company tests the operational and commercial viability of robot-powered retail services. Astribot is also working with partners including Jinma Rides, SEER Robotics and ThunderSoft to bring its technologies into commercial and industrial environments.

Beyond commercial services, Astribot is building a developer ecosystem around standardized robotic platforms, skill modules and development tools. These resources are designed to help research institutions and AI companies deploy models and develop new applications. Fang explained that, particularly in industrial settings, Astribot focuses on supplying the underlying platforms and technical capabilities, while partners customize the platforms and deploy them for specific applications. This approach allows partners to develop their own applications and create opportunities for value-added services.

Beyond Cable-Driven Robotics: Building a Competitive Edge Through a Full-Stack AI Architecture

Astribot describes itself as the world’s first company to have achieved mass production of cable-driven AI robots. Its approach uses flexible cables to transmit mechanical power, with cost efficiency and reliability among the key advantages the company attributes to the technology.

Fang explained that Astribot’s choice of cable-driven robotics was guided by the requirements of AI. The company considered several factors, including the ability to capture feedback from interactions with the physical environment, safety during human-robot contact and the cost of hardware.

For robots to become a practical gateway to Physical AI, Fang said, the hardware must be both affordable and easy to use. The operating platform must allow users to control and train robots with relative ease, while the AI models must be capable of handling a diverse range of tasks. Together, these capabilities would enable software and applications to generate greater value over time.

Addressing cost and durability, Fang said cable-driven systems can reduce reliance on components such as gear reducers. He estimated that Astribot’s current robot production costs could be roughly one-third of those of industry peers. On reliability, Fang said third-party service-life testing had indicated that the company’s robots could operate reliably for more than six years, while after-sales expenses for products already delivered have remained relatively low.

This AI-first approach underpins Astribot’s broader research and development strategy. Guided by its “Design for AI” philosophy, the company has built an integrated, full-stack architecture combining three core elements: its Lumo embodied foundation model, Astribot OS, and a cable-driven robotic body.

By integrating AI models, an embodied operating system and physical hardware, the architecture creates a continuous feedback loop between the robot, real-world data and AI models.

Each layer serves a distinct function. The cable-driven robotic body enables flexible, precise physical manipulation. The Lumo foundation model supports environmental understanding, task reasoning and action generation. Astribot OS brings these capabilities together into applications that users and developers can access and deploy.

Astribot expanded its AI capabilities in July 2026 with the introduction of Lumo-2, its embodied foundation model. This was followed in September by SmoothRL, an online reinforcement learning framework designed to help robots refine their behavior as they perform tasks and adapt more effectively to changes in real-world environments.

Fresh Funding Supports Astribot’s Next Stage of Commercial Expansion

As Astribot scales product deliveries and expands commercial applications, it is stepping up investment in research and development, talent acquisition and manufacturing capacity.

In October 2026, Astribot completed a new RMB 1 billion funding round, bringing its valuation to RMB 15 billion. The financing marked Astribot’s fourth funding round since March 2026, providing additional capital to support technological innovation and the expansion of its commercial operations.

The round was led by Shenzhen Toposcend Capital, an affiliate of Shenzhen Investment Holdings, with participation from Hongtai Aplus, the Guanghua Sunshine-managed Ninghai Xingtaihe Fund, Soliton Capital and other investors. Existing investor Xianmu also participated in the round.

The proceeds are intended primarily for further AI model development, recruitment, commercial deployment and manufacturing capacity expansion, supporting the company’s efforts to strengthen product development and deliver at scale.

Astribot’s participation in Hong Kong FinTech Week also provided a platform for dialogue with international technology companies, investors and other industry stakeholders. This year’s event highlights three engines of growth — Finance+, AI+ and Global Expansion — bringing together businesses and investment institutions from markets around the world.

With its international financial networks and strong cross-border business connections, Hong Kong offers Chinese technology companies a gateway to global resources and opportunities to develop partnerships in overseas markets.

Looking ahead, Astribot plans to continue pursuing commercialization through two complementary paths: commercial services and its developer ecosystem.

Fang said the company aims to further increase product deliveries in 2027 while exploring the introduction of AI robots designed for individual consumers, gradually expanding into household applications.

As Astribot’s robots enter more real-world environments, the company intends to improve their manipulation and human-robot interaction capabilities further, supporting the broader transition of embodied AI from specialized applications into everyday life.
