A Global Gathering to Shape the Future of NTN and Connectivity

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, Nov. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The second Connecting the World from the Skies Global Forum concluded successfully on November 26, 2024, bringing together a global community of 82 speakers and attendees, including 16 CEOs and 9 regulators.

 

The Communications, Space & Technology Commission (CST) of Saudi Arabia, in partnership with the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), hosted the second edition of the forum in Riyadh, themed “Shaping the Future of Converged Connectivity”, and delved into the next frontier of connectivity and explored the full potential of Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN).

Saudi Arabia is committed to uniting global efforts to connect the unconnected and bridge the digital divide, all in the service of humanity,” said H.E. Dr. Mohammed Altamimi, Governor of CST. “By fostering collaboration between industry leaders, policymakers, and innovators, we are accelerating the development and deployment of NTN technologies to benefit societies worldwide.”

The main panel discussion, titled “A Global Vision for the Future of NTN Connectivity,” delved into the pivotal role of NTN in establishing seamless global connectivity. Eminent leaders and experts shared visionary insights on shaping integrated communication networks that transcend geographical boundaries.

Carlos Baigorri, President of Anatel, emphasized the importance of global collaboration in ensuring equitable regulation and inclusive participation in discussions regarding space as a shared global asset. Aarti Holla-Maini, Director at the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs, highlighted three key factors to consider when evaluating NTN technologies: bandwidth, cost, and quality of service. She emphasized that higher bandwidth is crucial for applications demanding stable and reliable service, which is particularly critical for mission-critical use cases.

The forum witnessed the first-of-its-kind Direct-to-Device (D2D) trial in the Middle East and North Africa region, which involves connecting smart devices compatible with 3GPP Release 17 standards to a satellite, enabling data transmission and reception in unconnected areas. This experiment aimed to connect non-connected areas, develop NTN technologies, attract global investments, and stimulate local investments in the field.

The forum also hosted the second edition of the International Research Competition (Competition on Non-Terrestrial Networks for 6G) and awarded the three winners. The competition, organized in collaboration with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), attracted over 170 researchers and academics from 30 countries. The competition aims to promote innovative solutions and support scientific research in the field of Non-Terrestrial Networks. The top three submissions were recognized at the forum to honor their contributions to the advancement of 6G technology.

Key themes discussed at the forum included Seamless Direct-to-Device Connectivity; Aligning Global NTN Visions for WRC-27 & Beyond; Unlocking the Potential of D2D Connectivity; Global Connectivity Through LEO Networks; Delivering Sustainability in and from Space; Unveiling the Future of Space Economy.

Two top healthcare awards underline Brainomix’s landmark achievements in 2024 and the validation of its software’s impact on treatment rates

OXFORD, England and CHICAGO, Nov. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Brainomix, a pioneer in artificial intelligence (AI) imaging solutions, has been awarded the LSX European Lifestars Award for “Healthtech Company of the Year” by HSBC Innovation Banking, and the “Most Transformative Healthtech Company of the Year” by OBN.

The two awards, both highly competitive and prestigious, involved nominations from dozens of leading global healthtech innovators. Judges acknowledged the breadth of Brainomix’s success over the past year, including the endorsement by the National Institute for Health & Care Excellence (NICE) and a series of FDA clearances both in stroke and lung fibrosis driving the company’s expansion into the US market, and also the transformative impact that the technology is having on patient care.

“We are honored to be recognized by LSX and OBN for these top awards, which reflect the transformative impact our technology is having on patient care globally,” said Dr Michalis Papadakis, CEO and Co-Founder of Brainomix. “We remain committed to delivering cutting-edge AI solutions that will facilitate faster diagnosis and expand access to life-saving treatments for stroke and lung fibrosis patients.”

The largest real-world evaluation of stroke AI imaging, presented in May at the European Stroke Organisation Conference (ESOC) in Basel, showed that Brainomix 360 Stroke was associated with a 50% greater increase in the number of patients receiving mechanical thrombectomy. Mechanical thrombectomy is a life-changing stroke treatment which can reduce disability and prevent or limit long-term care needs in patients with the most severe strokes due to blockage of a large blood vessel supplying the brain.

Evidence of this impact has also been observed at national levels, with Brainomix software deployed countrywide in Wales and Hungary, servicing all stroke centers across their respective health systems.

“Now deployed across 28 sites in Hungary, we have seen the rate of thrombectomy increase by more than 50%,” said Prof István Szikora, National Institute of Mental Health, Neurology and Neurosurgery (OMIII), Budapest. “Brainomix 360 Stroke has proved itself an extremely effective asset in improving the efficacy of stroke care in Hungary.”

Wales has reported similar results, with a noted increase in thrombectomy of more than 44%. “The Brainomix 360 Stroke platform is a game-changer in stroke care, generating critical information from simple brain scans and providing a secure platform for clinicians to share information, images and analysis,” Dr Shakeel Ahmad, National Clinical Lead for Stroke. “This enables us to make faster, more precise decisions, which in turn will improve the quality of care and outcomes for stroke patients wherever they live in Wales.”

About Brainomix
Brainomix specializes in the creation of AI-powered software solutions to enable precision medicine for better treatment decisions in stroke and lung fibrosis. With origins as a spin-out from the University of Oxford, Brainomix is an expanding commercial-stage company with offices in the UK, Ireland and the USA, and operations in more than 30 countries. A private company, backed by leading healthtech investors, Brainomix has innovated award-winning imaging biomarkers and software solutions that have been clinically adopted in hundreds of hospitals worldwide.
