Envision Pharma Group Hires Leading Industry Executives Dominic Marasco and Gregory Carpenter to Lead Further Expansion of the Business and Support Growing Customer Demand

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Envision Pharma Group (Envision) today announced the appointment of two senior executives while further expanding its global focus on M&A, technology-enabled solutions, and strategic consulting for the life sciences industry.

Dominic “Nick” Marasco has joined as Chief Commercial Officer of Envision Pharma Group, and member of the Executive Leadership Team. Nick is an experienced global commercial leader with nearly 30 years of pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical device industry experience.

Greg says, “I am delighted to join Envision Pharma Group and help carry out our mission of improving lives through a compelling combination of technology and services to enable clients to better serve patients. Through our expertise in scientific and commercialization strategy and solutions, medical affairs, and AI-driven technology solutions, Envision is helping our customers to excel in a rapidly changing healthcare environment.”

Innovations improve field productivity and subcontractor management for better cost and schedule certainty

Newest enhancements to InEight’s construction project management platform bring better forecasting accuracy, improved field collaboration, and more visibility and control over subcontractor performance.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Jan. 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — InEight Inc., a global leader in construction capital project management software, has announced its latest suite of software innovations, which are designed to increase forecasting accuracy, field productivity, and subcontractor management.

These latest updates provide contractors with a higher level of forecasting accuracy based on up-to-date project progress, including subcontractor activity. This allows for quick reactions to financial and productivity challenges, providing greater confidence to project owners.

Uncertain economic conditions and disruptions in the construction supply chain are putting increased pressure on contractors and owner/operators to produce accurate project forecasts. InEight is building on its already strong legacy in cost forecasting with significant new capabilities in the areas of time-phased forecasting, custom forecasting methods, and resource-based forecasts.

In addition to out-of-the-box forecast methods, InEight users can now configure the best equations to automate forecast calculations for the different types of work through different stages of completion. “There is no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to forecasting, even within a single project,” says John Upton, Director Project Cost Management at InEight. “InEight helps contractors and owners better capture field data and measure progress,”

The platform enhancements also drive increased productivity through more efficient collaboration between the office and the field. Scope and quantities, productivity goals, and more are easily communicated in daily digital plans to field crews and subcontractors. Controlled transparency allows teams to identify and troubleshoot challenges. This leads to a higher level of profitability potential.

Additionally, InEight made it easier to get full visibility into subcontractor costs. With line of sight to both committed and uncommitted costs, users can compare the variance between the planned cost and the actual costs.

“Our goal is to connect scope, cost, and schedule on a single platform, giving project stakeholders the ability to collaborate effectively and deliver projects with predictable results,” comments Brad Barth, Chief Product Officer at InEight.

About InEight

InEight provides field-tested project management software for the owners, contractors, engineers and designers who are building the world around us. Over 575,000 users and more than 850 customers worldwide rely on InEight for real-time insights that help manage risk and keep projects on schedule and under budget across the entire life cycle.

From pre-planning to design, from estimating to scheduling, and from field execution to turnover, InEight has powered more than $1 trillion in projects globally across infrastructure, public sector, energy and power, oil, gas and chemical, mining, and commercial.

Presagis Introduces VELOCITY 5D Plugin for Unreal Engine

Enables Geospatially Accurate 3D Simulations with Digital Twins

MONTREAL, Jan. 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Presagis, developer of the VELOCITY 5D (V5D) digital twin production platform, today announced availability of the V5D Plugin for Unreal Engine, the most powerful 3D computer graphics engine on the market today. The plugin enables users to load a GIS-generated V5D digital twin into Unreal Engine to create highly realistic visualizations and simulations of entire cities and even countries.

“The primary application of the Unreal Engine Plugin will be in 3D visualization applications covering large geographic areas because of V5D’s unmatched ability to produce 3D digital twins from massive geospatial data sets,” said Jean-Michel Briere, Presagis President.

The most beneficial applications of the plugin will be in aviation, aerospace, urban planning, disaster preparation, and defense simulations that need to include expansive geographies. Visualizations that span long linear distances, such as the design of transportation routes and utility corridors, will also benefit. V5D for Unreal is the perfect extension of the scalable and highly automated, cloud based CDB production pipeline VELOCITY 5D. V5D for Unreal allow users to create custom visualization and simulation experiences in Unreal Engine while natively loading OGC CDB content produced by Velocity 5D platform or other OGC CDB compliant toolsets.

Release of the plugin is a win-win for existing users of both V5D and Unreal Engine, Briere explained. V5D users will be able to make powerful 3D fly-throughs and immersive simulations of their GIS-based digital twins. Unreal Engine users can now incorporate geospatially accurate cityscapes and terrains into their 3D experiences.

Launched in November 2022 by Presagis, V5D is a cloud-based platform that quickly and automatically converts massive volumes of geospatial data into high-fidelity 3D digital twins. With no geospatial processing expertise, V5D users can easily produce accurate digital twins from multiple 2D data sets, including GIS vector layers, remote sensing imagery, and other structured and unstructured data of any size, format, or type.

Developed by Epic Games, Unreal Engine is the 3D computer graphics generator that powers many of the world’s most popular and successful video games. Due to its vivid graphics and extremely accurate spatial presentation capabilities, Unreal Engine is increasingly being employed in other industries using 3D visualization and simulation technologies for improved understanding of current or future situations, risks and conditions.

Presagis will demonstrate the Unreal Engine plugin along with the unmatched speed, scalability, and realism of the V5D platform in booth #340 at GeoWeek 2023 being held February 13-15 in Denver, Colorado.

LEHI, Utah, Jan. 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SimpleNexus (https://simplenexus.com/), an nCino (NASDAQ: NCNO) company and developer of the leading U.S. homeownership platform for loan officers, borrowers, real estate agents and settlement agents, announced today that AmeriCU will implement Nexus Engagement™, Nexus Origination™ and Nexus Closing™ to provide a streamlined, mobile-first member experience.

Eyenuk Secures the First European Union MDR Certification for Autonomous AI Detection of Diabetic Retinopathy, Age-Related Macular Degeneration, and Glaucoma

The approval allows Eyenuk’s AI eye screening system, already approved for detection of diabetic retinopathy, to aid millions of additional patients at risk for vision loss

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Eyenuk, a global artificial intelligence (AI) digital health company, and the leader in real-world applications for AI Eye Screening™ and AI Predictive Biomarkers™, has been approved to market its EyeArt® AI eye screening system in the European Union for the new uses of detecting age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and glaucomatous optic nerve damage (a sign of glaucoma).

The EyeArt AI system (version 3.0) has been granted a new European Commission (EC) certification as a Class IIb medical device under the EU’s Medical Devices Regulation 2017/745 (“MDR”) and is intended to detect signs of diabetic retinopathy (DR) (including diabetic macular edema), AMD, and glaucomatous optic nerve damage in patients at risk of vision loss using computerized analysis of images of the retina. The EyeArt AI system was previously approved in the EU for the detection of DR including diabetic macular edema.

This EC Certification makes the EyeArt AI system the first and only autonomous AI solution with Class IIb MDR CE marking for the automated detection of all three eye diseases and will allow Eyenuk customers in the EU to detect the diseases in a single exam using the same set of retinal images. The EyeArt AI system is also the first and only system that is both CE Marked for the detection of the three diseases as well as FDA-cleared in the United States for the detection of DR, the leading cause of blindness among working-age adults.

The EyeArt AI system greatly expands the availability of vision-saving eye screenings by making automated AI diagnosis and coordination of care possible in primary care medical practices without the need for a specialist’s review. The system is integrated with retinal imaging cameras and can be operated by clinical support staff to generate a detailed screening report in less than 30 seconds. In regions with limited access to ophthalmologists, its ability to detect multiple eye diseases with a single exam can help reduce vision loss from these blinding eye diseases.

Malavika Bhaskaranand, Head of Regulatory and Clinical Affairs at Eyenuk, commented, “Achieving MDR certification is a major milestone for Eyenuk and a result of our early adaptation to the more stringent requirements of the new regulation. It reaffirms the strong results from rigorous clinical validation of the EyeArt AI system.”

Kaushal Solanki, Chief Executive Officer and Founder of Eyenuk, commented, “This EC certification multiplies our impact in two ways. First, our autonomous AI can now help many more patients at risk of vision loss – the population at risk of AMD and glaucoma, particularly seniors, in addition to people with diabetes. Second, our AI system can now provide a more comprehensive report for each patient with detection results for three diseases compared to just one previously.”

Solanki continued, “DR, AMD, and glaucoma are all asymptomatic in their early stages. The high sensitivity of the EyeArt AI system, and its ability to be delivered without a specialist, makes it easier to catch the diseases early and to take preventative measures to protect the vision of these patients. We look forward to the opportunity to forge new partnerships with world-class hospitals and healthcare institutions in Europe to help preserve the eyesight of millions across the continent with these diseases.”

EC Certification Caps Year of Breakthroughs for Eyenuk

The EC Certification of the EyeArt AI system caps a year of significant clinical and business milestones for Eyenuk. The company’s accomplishments in 2022 included:

  • Securing $26 million in a Series A financing round, bringing the company’s total funding to over $43 million
  • Reaching the new milestone of 70,000 patients screened using the EyeArt AI system globally since its FDA clearance in August 2020, by far the most screenings by any FDA-cleared autonomous AI system
  • Growing the number of locations using the EyeArt AI system to more than 200 in 18 countries and throughout the US
  • Publication of a major peer-reviewed study finding that the EyeArt AI system is far more sensitive in identifying referable DR than dilated eye exams by ophthalmologists and retina specialists
  • Winning Juniper Research’s Future Digital Health award for the “Best Digital Diagnostics Solution”
  • Being named a finalist for the UCSF Digital Health Award

About Eyenuk, Inc.

Eyenuk, Inc. is a global artificial intelligence (AI) digital health company and the leader in real-world AI Eye Screening™ for autonomous disease detection and AI Predictive Biomarkers™ for risk assessment and disease surveillance. Eyenuk is on a mission to screen every eye in the world to ensure timely diagnosis of life- and vision-threatening diseases, including diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, stroke risk, cardiovascular risk, and Alzheimer’s disease.

The EyeArt AI system provides fully autonomous screening for diabetic retinopathy (DR), age-related macular degeneration (AMD), and glaucomatous optic nerve damage, including retinal imaging, based on international clinical standards and immediate reporting, in a single office visit during a patient’s regular exam. Once the patient’s fundus images have been captured and submitted to the EyeArt AI System, the detection results are available in a PDF report in less than 30 seconds.

The EyeArt AI system was developed with funding from the U.S. National Institutes of Health and is validated by the U.K. National Health Service. The EyeArt AI system has CE marking as a class IIb medical device in the European Union under the EU’s Medical Devices Regulation 2017/745 (“MDR”) for the detection of DR, AMD, and glaucomatous optic nerve damage. Additionally, the system has U.S. Food and Drug Administration 510(k) clearance and a Health Canada license for autonomous detection of DR. It is designed to be General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) compliant.

The EyeArt AI system is reimbursable by government and private payors in the U.S. under the Category 1 Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) code 92229.
