GIM Raises US$20 Million Series A as Agentic Investing Enters Live Execution

Published

on

HONG KONG, BEIJING and SHANGHAI, July 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Grace Investment Machine (“GIM”), an AI-native investment technology company building agentic systems for capital markets, today announced the close of its US$20 million Series A financing. The round was co-led by a leading US venture capital firm and Hony Capital, with participation from IDG Capital and existing investor Monolith Capital. The financing marks GIM’s third funding round within its first year of operations.

GIM is building agentic AI systems designed to go beyond assisting investment research. The company describes this approach as a “Visionary Machine”: AI systems that generate, test, and refine investment hypotheses through market data, feedback loops, and coordinated agents.

Capital markets offer a uniquely rich learning environment. Every investment hypothesis can be translated into action, and every action produces measurable feedback. Over time, this closed learning loop allows intelligent systems to sharpen judgment not by memorizing the past, but by continuously learning from the market itself.

“We believe investment AI is moving from information assistance to autonomous hypothesis generation and testing,” said Jiahao Xu, founder and CEO of GIM. “GIM is building systems that can reason across market data, evaluate signals through feedback, and improve over time in real-world capital markets.”

The company is advancing on two fronts: foundation models tailored to capital-market environments, and multi-agent systems that generate, validate, and evolve investment signals across coordinated reasoning layers. Its flagship paper, CogAlpha, was accepted to the ACL 2026 main conference with an Oral recommendation. The paper presents a seven-layer agent architecture that moves from raw data to actionable investment signals.

GIM’s broader ambition is captured in a second phrase: Shared Prosperity. As intelligence systems compound at different rates, the company believes the defining question of the next decades will be who gets to own and harness that growth. Its long-term bet is to build products — from institutional strategies to individual-accessible vehicles — that turn self-evolving intelligence into a widely held asset, rather than a concentrated advantage.

This vision has drawn support from investors with long-term conviction in both AI and capital markets. The round brings together long-term investors with experience across artificial intelligence, financial technology, and global markets. Alongside its research efforts, GIM is also bringing AI-driven strategies and investment products into live validation across multiple asset classes and markets.

Dayton Children’s Hospital goes live with Sectra’s ophthalmology solution to unify imaging across specialties

Published

on

By

LINKÖPING, Sweden, July 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — International medical imaging IT and cybersecurity company Sectra (STO: SECT B) announces that Dayton Children’s Hospital is now live with Sectra’s ophthalmology solution, extending the hospital’s enterprise imaging platform beyond radiology. By consolidating imaging from multiple modalities and specialties into one system, clinicians can review and compare each patient’s history in a single place, supporting more thorough clinical assessment of complex pediatric cases.

“Having all our ophthalmology imaging in one place makes it much easier for clinicians to review and compare a patient’s history. And when a case spans multiple specialties, as in oncology where a child may have both radiology and ophthalmology findings, they can access everything in a single session without switching between systems. That kind of visibility matters when you are making decisions about a child’s care,” says Dr. Abiodun Omoloja, CMIO at Dayton Children’s Hospital.

Ophthalmology departments typically work with images from a range of camera types, which are often stored across separate systems or on the imaging equipment itself. Integrating Sectra’s ophthalmology solution into its existing enterprise imaging platform gives clinicians at Dayton Children’s Hospital a single point of access to all of a patient’s ophthalmology imaging, regardless of which camera captured it.

Dayton Children’s Hospital is a pediatric acute care teaching hospital serving infants, children, teens, and young adults throughout western Ohio and surrounding states. By adding the ophthalmology module to its existing Sectra One deployment, clinicians gain access to ophthalmology imaging directly within the platform already used for radiology. When clinically relevant, they can view studies from both specialties side by side, giving a more complete picture of each patient’s imaging history. By standardizing on Sectra’s enterprise imaging platform, the hospital’s IT department benefits from a single, unified system to manage, improving operational efficiency and reducing administrative complexity.

“Dayton Children’s Hospital is a strong example of how a trusted foundation can grow over time. Starting with radiology and now adding ophthalmology, they are building an imaging environment where each specialty reinforces the next, and where clinical teams can work from a shared picture of the patient. That is the kind of long-term value we aim to build together with our customers,” says Isaac Zaworski, President of Sectra Inc.

Following a two and a half-year contract, Dayton Children’s Hospital went live with Sectra’s ophthalmology solution in Sectra’s 2025/2026 fiscal year, with an expected annual volume of 2.000 ophthalmology exams.

Sectra’s enterprise imaging solution provides a unified strategy for all imaging needs while lowering operational costs. The scalable and modular solution, with a VNA at its core, allows healthcare providers to grow from ology to ology and from enterprise to enterprise.

Unit4 launches “AI for Your World”, a commitment-free initiative for the mid-market

Published

on

By

LONDON, July 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Unit4, a leader in enterprise cloud applications for people-centric organisations, today announced that new and existing Unit4 ERP customers can trial its AI capabilities built for their service-centric industries, commitment-free, if they register before December 2026. Unit4 intends to empower the mid-market to harness AI for innovation, reduction of manual, repetitive tasks, improve decision-making and build tangible business use cases for AI, giving time back for work that matters most. At the end of the initiative on 31st August 2027, customers can either move to a subscription for Unit4’s AI capabilities or stop using the technology, but Unit4 believes ongoing experimentation is crucial to fulfill AI’s potential for the mid-market.

As part of “AI for Your World,” customers will have access to its Advanced Virtual Agent (Ava) which responds to natural language requests through tools such as Microsoft Teams, bringing tasks to users and providing guidance and insights without the need to switch applications. The AI capabilities will work across the whole Unit4 ERPx platform, covering finance, HR and people, procurement and project management processes. Customers will have full access to Unit4’s AI tools with a generous fair use cap, set high enough to enable everyday use without exceeding the limit, meaning there are no surprise costs. To use these AI capabilities with no commitment to buy a subscription, new and existing customers must sign up before 31st December 2026 and can stop using it at any time before the deadline of 31st August 2027.

“The mid-market has always been an engine of growth for economies around the world, and we want to help build a new generation of AI-enabled mid-market champions,” said Simon Paris, CEO, Unit4. “The “AI for Your World” initiative underlines our commitment to helping our customers experiment with AI functionality without concerns about contractual obligations. We believe this commitment-free approach will be a trigger to accelerate innovation and productivity, giving teams time back for the work that matters most.”

The Unit4 approach to AI is built around four principles:

Designed for your world: Most ERP systems record what has happened. ERPx understands what it means because of its 40 years of industry context which is built into its foundations, not bolted on. That’s what makes it a system of reason: customers go live faster on pre-built vertical workflows and get an ERP that reasons from the meaning up, not one they must configure from scratch.You stay in control: Governance is built into the architecture, not bolted on afterwards. Every action stays inside your rules, enforced by a policy, threshold and delegation engine, as well being attributable to a named human and fully reconstructible. This makes audits painless, while data is protected through tenant isolation, data residency and no public-LLM training.It gets smarter over time: ERPx learns the more it is involved in tasks, so every cycle (engagement, grant, term, payroll) feeds the model, per-tenant and in-jurisdiction. Ava orchestrates agents across finance, projects and people for one co-ordinated view and vertical pattern recognition ensures problems surface early.Built for what’s next: AI is constantly evolving, which is why Unit4 has designed its approach to be model agnostic. The business context layer sits apart from any single model, so new capabilities plug in instead of forcing a rebuild, while the control plane absorbs new regulators and governance frameworks.

“AI will only be effective for mid-market organisations if it is embedded in an intelligent core that is fluent in the language of our customers’ industries,” added Claus Jepsen, CTO, Unit4. “They have a head start using our AI with ERPx because it has been designed with their needs in mind. It becomes smarter the more involved it gets in work, ensuring institutional memory lives in the system and accelerates productivity. It is auditable and data is protected so our customers can be confident of compliance with regulatory frameworks, and it is model-agnostic to avoid lock-in to one LLM approach.”
