NGen, Canada’s advanced manufacturing global innovation network, Festo Didactic, a leading provider of technical education equipment and solutions, and Humber Polytechnic, a leading Canadian post-secondary institution known for its career-focused, hands-on approach to education, are partnering to demonstrate the strength of Canadian mechatronics skills at Hannover Messe.
HANNOVER, Germany, March 24, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — NGen, Canada’s advanced manufacturing global innovation network, Festo Didactic, a leading provider of technical education equipment and solutions, and Humber Polytechnic, a leading Canadian post-secondary institution known for its career-focused, hands-on approach to education, are partnering to demonstrate the strength of Canadian mechatronics skills at Hannover Messe. This collaboration will feature a skills competition showcasing top students from leading Canadian post-secondary institutions including Humber Polytechnic, Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT), and Conestoga College.
“Mechatronics skills are highly sought-after by employers across various industries globally including automation, robotics, and advanced manufacturing,” said Peter Wawrow, Director of Workforce Development Programs at NGen. “This competition is an opportunity to showcase the exceptional talent that Canada and Germany have to offer, and to highlight the importance of investing in workforce development.”
The skills competition will feature four teams of two competitors. There will be three teams from Canada and one team from Germany. These institutions were selected for their strong mechatronics programs and history of producing highly skilled graduates. Humber Polytechnic, led by Director Neal Mohammed, has participated in Canada’s Skills Provincial, National, and International mechatronics competitions, and over the last two decades, has won 47 medals, 29 gold, 14 silver, and 4 bronze.
“Mechatronics is such a high-demand skill set. Every industry needs these skills to keep their operations maintained and competitive. Employers are coming to Humber before our students graduate months in advance to hire them,” said Neal Mohammed, Director of the Barrett Centre for Technology Innovation at Humber Polytechnic. “Canada has the capacity to prepare and train students with the right skills, and we are demonstrating it through the Hannover Messe event,” Director Mohammed added.
The competition challenge, focused on an automotive theme, will require students to design and build an assembly line to sort vehicles by colour and deliver them to specific locations, mimicking real-world scenarios in “just-in-time” manufacturing.
In addition to the competition, NGen will host a panel discussion featuring leaders from the three Canadian participating schools, team Germany, and Festo to discuss the importance of mechatronics education and workforce development.
The Mechatronics Competition
Canada Pavilion Hall 7 D28
The four teams representing Canada and Germany will participate over five days at the mechatronics competition. Each day will consist of a different application build where competitors will be challenged to solve a realistic industry challenge. Problem-solving and systems integration skills are an essential part of the competition and will require competitors to be proficient in system-level thinking, troubleshooting and diagnostics, system building, and optimization.
The goal of the competition is to provide students with the opportunity to demonstrate the skills and knowledge that every technician must have in the field of Industrial Automation and Control Technology. The competitors will be presented with an industrial challenge which they will need to build an automated system and demonstrate their skills in automation, mechanical building, electrical wiring, troubleshooting, logical problem solving, speed execution, PLC programming, and professional practice under a time frame. Teams of two need to demonstrate their ability to integrate these disciplines into a cohesive, efficient, and innovative solution that can solve complex industrial problems. Effective communication, logical thinking, and real-time adaptation to challenges are crucial for success in such competitions. The ability to design, build, test, and refine a system under time pressure is a key element of this competition, making both technical expertise and teamwork essential for success.
“We want to showcase the skills that we have coming from Canada, and the skills needed for advanced manufacturing careers,” said Greg James, Head of Sales at Festo Didactic Canada. “The systems used in the competition are scalable mechatronic systems that mimic industrial standards. Students will be tasked with solving an industry problem by building an automated manufacturing system using Festo Didactic components.”
Participants will be tasked with building a mechatronics system using Festo Didactic’s Modular Production System. The MPS system challenges students to assemble, integrate, and program components to create an automated system that’s capable of completing a specific task. Programming is done via PLC coding.
The teams will compete using the same MPS systems and applications used in the 2024 WorldSkills Competition. Festo Didactic has provided state-of-the-art learning systems for SkillsUSA and WorldSkills mechatronics competitions around the world since 1991.

CytoSite Bio Announces Agreement with Lantheus for Granzyme B Targeted PET Imaging Radiotracer for Immunotherapy Assessment
Published
43 minutes agoon
March 26, 2025By

A global collaboration agreement has been signed for the development and commercialization of a Granzyme B-targeted Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging radiotracer.
This radiotracer has the potential to support the monitoring of patient immune response and supports the accelerated development for CytoSite.
CytoSite will lead initial clinical development with Lantheus having an exclusive option to acquire worldwide development and commercialization rights to the radiotracer.
BOSTON, March 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — CytoSite Bio (CytoSite) announced today that they have signed a collaboration agreement for the clinical development and potential commercialization of CytoSite’s investigational Phase 1 ready granzyme B-targeted Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging tracer with Lantheus Holdings, Inc. This agreement provides Lantheus with an exclusive option to license worldwide rights to CytoSite’s novel imaging technology.
The two companies will collaborate on clinical development, with Lantheus having the option to acquire exclusive worldwide rights for further development and commercialization of the product. Under the terms of the agreement, CytoSite is eligible to receive payments for development, regulatory and commercial milestones, plus royalties on future product sales.
Granzyme B is an enzyme released upon activation of immune cells to destroy harmful cells, including cancer. Early studies of the investigational imaging tracer have shown potential to evaluate whether immunotherapies are working effectively to activate the immune system. This investigational PET imaging radiotracer could enable physicians to measure the early efficacy of such therapies within days of first dose and modify treatment accordingly rather than waiting for months to fully understand if the treatment is working. Additionally, pharmaceutical developers can use the investigational imaging tracer to gain an early read-out of efficacy for new therapies, enabling faster decision-making and more efficient allocation of resources.
“The clinical data we have generated to date validates our belief that use of PET imaging to detect active Granzyme B has the potential to transform outcomes in immuno-oncology, autoimmune-mediated and inflammatory diseases,” said Benjamin Larimer, PhD, Co-founder and CEO of CytoSite. “We are excited to be partnering with Lantheus to bring Granzyme B PET imaging to the forefront. This strategic collaboration creates a clear path to commercialization with an ideal partner in the radiopharmaceutical space while providing significant value potential for CytoSite as we advance this promising technology in parallel with our own radiotherapeutic program.”
“If approved, CytoSite’s proprietary Granzyme B biomarker could provide a valuable tool for oncologists, radiologists and medical professionals to enable improved outcomes for cancer patients and rapidly expand options for new immunotherapies,” said Umar Mahmood, MD, PhD, Co-founder of CytoSite, Chief of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging in the Department of Radiology at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and Professor of Radiology at Harvard Medical School.
About CytoSite Bio
CytoSite Bio is developing novel radiopharmaceuticals that enable the quantification and modulation of immune activation to improve cancer immunotherapy. The lead product detects active Granzyme B, the primary protein responsible for the killing of tumor cells by the immune system. CytoSite’s products enable individually optimized treatments for patients, and more rapid evaluation of new drugs and drug combinations, using non-invasive, whole-body PET imaging combined with targeted radiotherapy.

VILNIUS, Lithuania, March 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — WhiteBIT, the largest European cryptocurrency exchange by traffic, is entering the Australian market, unlocking new opportunities for investment in digital assets. The platform’s launch in Australia is a strategic move in the company’s global expansion, reinforcing its presence on the international stage.
The WhiteBIT.au platform was launched in December 2024, but this launch was preceded by months of internal work and preparation. WhiteBIT has registered with AUSTRAC as a Digital Currency Exchange Provider and Independent Remitter Dealer. The company is just beginning to scale up its activities in Australia, planning to build on its already strong local team. As of now, spot trading is available; however, the product line will keep on growing. The company’s focus is to provide the highest quality products while staying within the regulatory approvals in each country.
WhiteBIT is the largest European centralized crypto exchange by traffic. It has 8 million registered users and offices in 7 countries and is part of the WhiteBIT Group, a leading ecosystem of blockchain and crypto solutions with more than 35 million users worldwide. This launch in Australia comes amidst the growing demand for cryptocurrencies among Australian investors, creating the perfect environment for the development of digital asset infrastructure in the region.
For Australian users, WhiteBIT offers fast and secure transactions and access to a range of new cryptocurrency trading tools, making it ideal for both beginners and experienced traders.
Australia’s Crypto Adoption Surges as Investment Interest Grows
According to Triple-A data, 9.6% of Australians already own digital assets, highlighting the high level of crypto adoption in the country. This creates an ideal environment for the continued growth of the crypto industry, particularly given the stable economy and increasing popularity of cryptocurrency investments among younger Australians.
Despite its complexity, Australia presents an attractive landscape for crypto businesses. The nation boasts a resilient economy that is steadily recovering from post-COVID challenges. With a consistently growing average salary, Australians have the financial means, an investment culture, and access to a wide range of financial instruments. Notably, derivatives and cryptocurrencies are among the preferred options for younger investors.
The country’s crypto market infrastructure is well-developed, with clear regulations and an established legal framework ensuring a structured environment for industry players. As a result, both local and global crypto companies are actively expanding their presence, competing to meet the needs of Australian investors.
Volodymyr Nosov, founder and president of WhiteBIT Group, comments, “Expanding into the Australian market presents a unique opportunity to engage with a highly crypto-savvy audience and a region that plays one of the crucial roles in the Asia-Pacific Region. Our goal is to contribute to the economic well-being and financial independence of both Australian and Asian communities while driving the adoption of blockchain technology on a global scale. This expansion marks a significant step in our mission to make crypto accessible to everyone.”
