Cloudera Launches Private Link Network for Secure, Internet-Free Cloud Connectivity

 Dubai, United Arab Emirates 

New updates address growing data demands for industries with stringent compliance requirements

Cloudera, the only true hybrid platform for data, analytics and AI, today launched the Cloudera Private Link Network to address critical data security and privacy concerns for highly regulated organizations with strict internal data security policies. Cloudera Private Link Network provides secure, private connectivity from customer workloads to the Cloudera Control Plane, ensuring that data does not traverse the public Internet.

 

Organizations in industries such as finance, healthcare, and pharmaceuticals often face privacy challenges because providers often cannot guarantee that traffic between tenants, even within the same cloud, will not traverse the Internet and risk data exposure. Cloudera Private Link Network helps to solve these challenges by providing a unified, cross-cloud private connectivity service, enabling enterprises to securely manage data-intensive workloads across multiple cloud environments through a single, specialized network.

 

Cloudera Private Link Network integrates across major cloud providers by utilizing existing cloud provider services like AWS PrivateLink and Azure Private Link and other network infrastructure such as multi-cloud connectivity. This setup extends secure data transfer across multiple cloud environments, to enable consistent security and streamlined management. Customers can efficiently self-serve and provision services using the Cloudera Command Line Interface.

 

“Cloudera Private Link Network is purpose-built and managed by Cloudera to address enterprise privacy and connectivity concerns. By offloading the management of Private Link Network to Cloudera, it will both lower TCO for your organization and free up valuable resources, allowing you to focus on strategic business initiatives,” said Dipto Chakravarty, Chief Product Officer at Cloudera. “By managing  data integrity and trustworthiness throughout the architecture, we help enterprises safeguard sensitive customer data.”

 

“As organizations move to cross-cloud deployments, they expect to drastically reduce the complexity of multi-platform configurations to a point that they should only have to specify private link network endpoints between their control plane and the data planes,” said industry analyst, Sanjeev Mohan. “Private Link Network helps enterprises protect their data more effectively and easily leverage disparate clouds to reduce total cost of ownership. This advancement further establishes Cloudera as a leader in providing secure, cross-cloud connectivity for metadata management.”

 

Cloudera Private Link Network will be on display at Cloudera EVOLVE Dubai, taking place September 12, 2024, at the Museum of the Future. Attendees will see the power of Cloudera Private Link Network firsthand and gain insights into the real-world experiences of leading-edge companies from around the globe.

The Brightcove AI Suite is a collaborative, customer-focused initiative being tested with more than a dozen customers, including Management Leadership for Tomorrow (MLT), Major League Fishing, Italiaonline, and OneValley. For a limited time, the company is expanding its AI pilot program to all customers at no additional cost.

“As a trusted partner to more than 2,000 global customers, we are also launching the Brightcove AI Pledge: a commitment to securely handling customer data with transparency and responsibility,” said Scott Levine, Chief Product Officer at Brightcove. “Part of our differentiation will be our ability to advance Generative AI securely, protecting our customers' most valuable assets, including transparent guiding principles to protect customer data and content integrity. We will only use data and content to train our AI models with explicit permission from our customers so they can decide their level of inclusion and security.”

Brightcove is committed to building the world’s smartest, fastest, and most reliable automated engagement platform, anchored in video, to revolutionize how customers engage and grow their audience, increase revenue, and improve business efficiency.

Merck Unveils New MAVENCLAD® Four-Year Data Highlighting Benefits of Early Treatment and Sustained Efficacy Across Multiple Measures of Disease Activity

 DARMSTADT, Germany 

Phase IV studies demonstrate the consistent safety and high efficacy of MAVENCLAD on NEDA-3, MRI and cognition outcomes over four years

New data on blood and CSF biomarkers show the impact of MAVENCLAD to promote immune cell reconstitution, while clinical data confirmed 93.7% of patients free from PIRA

MAVENCLAD has now treated more than 100,000 patients globally, underscoring its trusted efficacy and safety profile

(BUSINESS WIRE) -- Not intended for UK-, US- or Canada-based media

Merck, a leading science and technology company, today announced presentations showcasing the long-term safety profile, sustained efficacy data, and durable effect of MAVENCLAD® (cladribine tablets) in individuals with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS). Among 34 total MAVENCLAD presentations are data from several MAGNIFY-MS sub-studies demonstrating the impact of MAVENCLAD on disability progression, central inflammation, and an oral presentation on immune reconstitution effects. These data, along with six other company abstracts, will be presented at the 40th Congress of the European Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis (ECTRIMS) taking place September 18-20 in Copenhagen.

“The efficacy of MAVENCLAD has long been established through traditional endpoints from our original pivotal trials and beyond. Now, with additional measures of the impact on neuroinflammation and progression, we can reaffirm and further solidify its long-term efficacy position within the MS treatment landscape,” said Alexander Kulla, Senior Vice President & Medical Unit Head Neurology & Immunology at Merck. “MAVENCLAD continues to demonstrate its consistent safety profile with sustained benefits, impacting the lives of more than 100,000 people living with MS."

Results from the MAGNIFY-MS extension, a Phase IV study evaluating patients (n=219) on MAVENCLAD with highly active RMS, confirmed 79.2% of patients achieved no evidence of disease activity (NEDA-3) during Year 4 of the treatment. The annualized relapse rate (ARR) remained low overall (0.09) and was further reduced (0.06) in treatment-naïve patients over four years. Similarly, the CLARIFY-MS extension showed the sustained benefits in MAVENCLAD-treated patients (n=280) on cognition, in addition to MRI outcomes and relapses, four years after the initial treatment dose. Specific to cognition, 77.5% of patients had improved or stable scores at four years, based on the 8-point cut-off of the Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT). In both studies, safety data aligned with the established profile from clinical trials.

Two-year data from a MAGNIFY-MS sub-study found patients with highly active RMS treated with MAVENCLAD had low overall disability accrual, including low rates of progression independent of relapse activity (PIRA). At two years, rates for all disability measures were low overall with 93.7% of patients free from PIRA. The reduction of PIRA is especially notable in treatment-naïve patients (3.4% vs 8.5% in treatment-experienced patients), emphasizing the benefits of early treatment initiation with MAVENCLAD. Overall, these data suggest that MAVENCLAD is likely to preserve the physical abilities and prevent relapses in individuals with RMS, supporting the sustained efficacy and durable effect of MAVENCLAD.

Building on prior data, which showed MAVENCLAD reduces or eliminates oligoclonal bands in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), new two-year data demonstrate reductions in gene expression and protein levels of markers associated with inflammation, including pro-inflammatory cytokines, providing insights into the potential multifaceted effect of MAVENCLAD in the peripheral blood and CSF. This data suggests that immune reconstitution following treatment with cladribine tablets may shift the immune system to a less pathogenic state. Analyses of CSF proteomics and T and B cell transcriptomics further substantiate the clinical findings, suggesting the potential of MAVENCLAD to reduce disease activity and progression in RMS patients.

To view our 40 accepted abstracts and posters to be presented from across our MS portfolio at ECTRIMS, including innovative analyses of MAVENCLAD using artificial intelligence, please visit the Programme.

About MAVENCLAD®

MAVENCLAD, approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on March 29, 2019, is the first and only short-course oral therapy for the treatment of adults with relapsing-remitting disease (RRMS) and active secondary progressive disease (SPMS). Because of its safety profile, use of MAVENCLAD is generally recommended for patients who have had an inadequate response to, or are unable to tolerate, an alternate drug indicated for the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS), and MAVENCLAD is not recommended for use in patients with clinically isolated syndrome (CIS). Patients should follow healthcare provider instructions including cancer screening, contraception and blood tests. The approved dose of MAVENCLAD is 3.5 mg per kg body weight over two years, administered as one treatment course of 1.75 mg per kg per year, each consisting of two treatment weeks. The mechanism by which cladribine exerts its therapeutic effects in patients with multiple sclerosis has not been fully elucidated but is thought to involve cytotoxic effects on B and T lymphocytes through impairment of DNA synthesis, resulting in depletion of lymphocytes. MAVENCLAD causes a dose-dependent reduction in lymphocyte counts followed by recovery.

Because cladribine is cytotoxic, special handling and disposal instructions should be followed.

More than 100,000 patients have been treated with MAVENCLAD since its launch in 2019. MAVENCLAD has been approved in over 80 countries, including the European Union (EU), Canada, Australia and Switzerland, for various relapsing MS indications. Visit www.MAVENCLAD.com for more information.

About Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, inflammatory condition of the central nervous system and is the most common non-traumatic, disabling neurological disease in young adults. It is estimated that approximately 2.8 million people have MS worldwide. While symptoms can vary, the most common symptoms of MS include blurred vision, numbness or tingling in the limbs and problems with strength and coordination. The relapsing forms of MS are the most common.

Merck in Neurology and Immunology

Merck has a long-standing legacy in neurology and immunology, with significant R&D and commercial experience in multiple sclerosis (MS). The company’s current MS portfolio includes two products for the treatment of relapsing MS – Rebif® (interferon beta-1a) and MAVENCLAD® (cladribine tablets). Merck aims to improve the lives of patients by addressing areas of unmet medical needs. In addition to Merck’s commitment to MS, the company also has a pipeline focusing on discovering new therapies that have potential in other neuroinflammatory and immune-mediated diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE) and generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG).

International Real Estate Group Rebrands as Accumin to Empower Better Property Decisions

 MADRID - Thursday, 12. September 2024 

Asertia, the international real estate group behind market leaders Tinsa and Deyde DataCentric (Spain and Latin America); Persch Consult and on-geo (Germany); and Troostwijk (Netherlands), among others, unites its companies under a new group name: Accumin.

This strategic move brings together more than 1,500 employees from more than 20 companies in 14 countries, across 3 continents with a commitment to help their clients make the right Real Estate decisions.

Accumin offers global independent expertise combined with innovative software solutions and actionable intelligence that will help its clients and their customers See Value Clearly.

 

(BUSINESS WIRE) -- Asertia, owned by international private equity firm Cinven, has announced plans to reorganise and define more clearly its diverse range of products and services around the globe under a new brand – Accumin.

As one of the world’s largest and most trusted real estate advisory companies with more than 40 years of experience, Accumin has one clear purpose: to empower people and businesses to grow by making the right Real Estate decisions and See Value Clearly. As part of redefining the group, Asertia combines its collective products and services under three core verticals to bring greater clarity on the group’s capabilities: Value & Advisory, Intelligence & Software, and Risk Management. In addition to the three verticals, there will also be a new division called Home, which will primarily focus on bringing greater clarity and efficiency to help consumers make better real estate decisions as buyers, sellers and owners of real estate.

“Value is everywhere if you know how to look. In a world that is increasingly uncertain, our aim is to bring precision, clarity and innovation, and build trust with our clients, identifying opportunities and risks that might otherwise go unnoticed. This is an exciting phase of our present and future evolution as a combined group that demonstrates our overall capabilities in independent expertise and innovative intelligence and software solutions. Our purpose is to help our clients and their customers see value clearly, building upon our reputation as a company that clients can trust to provide them quality and independent, unbiased advice,” said James Cornell, Global CEO of Accumin.

To strengthen the company’s strategic global vision, Accumin has named experts to lead its newly defined structure:

Maarten de Hass has recently joined as the Global Head of Value & Advisory. Maarten has significant international Real Estate experience in multinational companies and brings with him years of working in consulting firms such as MVGM, Cushman, Deloitte and EY.

Manuel Hurtado also recently joined as the Global Head of Intelligence. Coming from the strategy and technology consulting firm McKinsey, Manuel has been a key leader in their data and Gen AI area and has more than a decade of international experience in data strategy, digital transformation and analytics.

Johan Drost, current CEO of Troostwijk Group, a subsidiary of Accumin, has been appointed Global Head of Risk Management. Here Johan combines his background within banking and insurance to help build on Troostwijk’s vast products and services from risk inspection to Real estate loss assessing and valuation for insurance purposes.

Jose Rivera, current Group Head of Digital will lead the transversal, and newly created consumer-focused division and become Global Head of Accumin Home.

“Our strength and our value lie in our integration of independent diverse perspectives from various countries, sectors, and disciplines, which gives us a global vision backed by local expertise, strengthening our ability to cut through complexity, providing value and clarity to our business customers and to the end consumer,” adds Cornell. “By amplifying our human perspective with intelligence and software, we give clients greater control and confidence over Real Estate related decisions, which is what will be key to helping our clients and their customers see value clearly.”

Today’s repositioning of the group under the global brand of Accumin is the beginning of a wider unification in how the company presents itself, working together whilst respecting regulation to preserve independence and data protection between its subsidiaries. While the company envisions most of its companies to ultimately rebrand as Accumin, most subsidiaries will first pass through a transition period in which they will be endorsed “by Accumin” to respect the powerful reputation that the individual companies have built in their local markets.

As the group unites as one, Accumin transforms into an ecosystem of local and global expertise, harnessing the power of the diversity of its talent supported by intelligence and software, true to its name: the combination of knowledge, or acumen, and accuracy or precision, which are central to the value proposition the company offers for clients.

Future Trends in Beauty Available in new NielsenIQ (NIQ) Global Beauty Innovation Report

CHICAGO - Thursday, 12. September 2024 AETOSWire

Personal Care Brands embracing innovation in 2023 are 2.5 times more likely to see sales growth.

20% of 2023 innovation launches in Europe were in skin and hair care categories.

Effective activation leads to 20% lift in ad-driven sales.

 

(BUSINESS WIRE) -- In the ever-evolving beauty industry, understanding and fulfilling meaningful consumer needs has become paramount, especially following significant shifts post COVID-19. NIQ today released its Global Beauty Innovation Report, powered by NIQ BASES Innovation Measurement providing a comprehensive view of the state of innovation and future trends in the beauty industry across 14 markets.

Personal Care Brands embracing innovation in 2023 are 2.5 times more likely to see overall sales growth compared to those with stagnant or declining innovation sales. Strong innovations attract new buyers, create new usage occasions, justify price premiums, and keep brands top of mind.

Brands delivering strong products can see a significant upside, with an average Year 1 volume increase of 30% compared to their less successful counterparts. Effective activation leads to a 20% lift in ad-driven sales, especially when creative elements are optimized. This underscores the importance of having both a great product and ensuring that the marketing and promotional efforts are well-executed and resonate with the target audience.

Claire Marty, Vice President, Global Client Development, commented, “Despite increasing caution in consumer spending, consumers are less willing to cut back on their beauty expenditures compared to other FMCG products, with 80% indicating they intend to maintain or increase their spending in this area. The beauty industry's global popularity continues to rise, with industry sales maintaining a double-digit growth rate across all regions and is expected to bring an increase in scale of $300 billion over the next decade.”

Breakthrough Trends accelerating innovation in Beauty Industry:

Clean and Sustainable: The trend towards clean and sustainable products is growing in the CPG category, focusing on ethical sourcing, eco-friendly packaging, and reducing carbon footprints. In South Korea clean beauty has become a lifestyle choice with manufacturers focusing on eco-friendly packaging and sustainable production practices.

Ingredient Focus: Global consumers are shopping with an ‘ingredients first’ mindset, prioritizing products based on their ingredient lists. Consumers are interested both in which ingredients are included and also in which are not. UK consumers prioritize results and efficacy over brand names.

Trusted Advisor​: Celebrities, dermatologists, and influencers are shaping beauty decisions through social media. In China, the number of Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) exceeds 20 million and is growing, while 80% of actual sales come from merely 7% of KOLs.

Personalization and Inclusivity: Consumers increasingly prefer brands that address individual needs, leading to more tailored experiences like hair and skin quizzes. Afroconsumption is the hottest personalization and inclusivity topic in Brazil, with women opting out of hair straightening products.

Wellness Focused: Consumers are prioritizing their well-being, leading to a demand for products that support physical, mental, and emotional health. The cosmetics industry in France is leveraging on neuroscience targeting both body and mind. Luxury brands are creating products improving both skin appearance and emotional well-being.

Convenience and Accessibility: Direct–to-consumer (DTC) products and at-home beauty treatments surged in popularity during COVID-19. This trend continues to grow as electric cosmetics and muscle stimulation devices have surged in popularity.

Luxury for all: This trend in beauty reflects the growing availability of high-quality products at affordable prices. Democratization of luxury is driven by innovative brands offering exceptional products rivaling high-end counterparts. Consumers in Saudi Arabia value high-quality ingredients and are willing to pay a premium particularly on Personal and Beauty care. Successful activation in the beauty industry hinges on the synergy between a compelling idea and a robust product with one third of new launches faltering due to lack sufficient support during their first year.

New Arthur D. Little/POLIS Future of Mobility Report Outlines Potential Solutions to Double Global Sustainable Mobility

 

 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Adopting eight high-impact solutions can transform the growth of virtuous mobility, potentially doubling the share of sustainable mobility in the modal split from approximately 30% to 60% of passenger kilometers (PAX) over the next decade. This is the key finding of the fifth Arthur D. Little (ADL)/POLIS Future of Mobility report, which was published today.

Despite the promise of sustainable mobility to reduce emissions, increase choice and deliver seamless journeys, its progress over the last 15 years has been slow, with use of public transport, active mobility and new/shared mobility services growing by just +10%pts of trips. 70% of passenger-km in urban areas are still by individual car, while the transport sector still contributes to 25-40% of national carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions on a worldwide basis with a steady increase since 1990.

Developed by ADL in combination with POLIS, Europe’s leading network of local and regional authorities advancing sustainable mobility through transport innovation, the fifth Future Mobility study provides a 360-degree perspective on mobility matters. It aims to shed light on what key stakeholders — transport authorities at local, regional, and national levels; public and private mobility services providers; transport sector suppliers; and investors — should do to accelerate the transition toward more sustainable mobility. The joint study is based on extensive interviews and focus groups with sector stakeholders and global research to collect insights from mobility leaders.

Francois-Joseph Van Audenhove, Managing Partner, Head of Travel & Transportation Practice at ADL and leading ADL’s Future of Mobility Lab, comments: “While some progress has been made since we published our first study in 2011, overall the individual passenger car still dominates urban transport. However, our analysis shows that, with comprehensive implementation, appropriate funding, and robust governance at the system level, the implementation of the eight high-impact solutions reviewed have the potential to double the global share of sustainable mobility and accelerate the transition toward more virtuous mobility systems in the next decade. The potential for transformation is evident, yet the real challenge lies in putting it into action.”

Karen Vancluysen, Secretary General, POLIS, comments, “We live in very uncertain and unpredictable times – but looking into the future is a key component of leadership. What trends and challenges are driving our mobility systems? What solutions are out there, and which ones are we actually able to deliver? How can public and private sector initiatives come together and mutually reinforce each other? What will be the game changers in the years to come? This study aims to help us move forward and accelerate the urgent transition to a more sustainable mobility. It supports stakeholders with navigating the innovation landscape and putting ambition into action by prioritising the right solutions.”

The eight solutions reviewed are:

1. Climate change mitigation policies – adopting a more joined-up policy approach, complementing electrification with other actions to maximize its impact

2. City of Proximity (15 minute city) concepts – shaping cities to be more human-centric and accessible

3. Dimensioning of mass transit – developing multimodal masterplans to encourage public transport use

4. New mobility services (micro, shared and on-demand) – greater collaboration between local and regional authorities and new mobility service providers to create and grow ‘shared-mobility ecosystems’, combining public transport and new mobility

5. Mobility-as-a-Service – adapt a comprehensive approach to frame and enable MaaS solutions that are enabling mobility policy’s objectives, and providing more value than the sum of their parts.

6. Autonomous mobility – anticipating the introduction of autonomous vehicles and looking at specific use cases that increase sustainability

7. Mobility demand management – driving behavior change through a combination of regulation and cultural change

8. Mobility funding – optimizing the efficiency and effectiveness of funding and diversifying funding sources for operators

Individually none of the solutions has an impact of more than around 15%, showing the need for a coordinated sustained approach to enable success. There is also a large gap between theory and practice - 81% of mobility leaders saw the eight solutions as important, but under 60% are confident in the current readiness of mobility systems to implement them, highlighting the need for system-level coordination and enablement to bridge this gap and turn potential into reality.
