Agilis Robotics Targeting its Pre-B Round Fund-raising to be Completed by 2022 ACN Newswire

Agilis Robotics Targeting its Pre-B Round Fund-raising to be Completed by 2022

HONG KONG, Sep 22, 2022 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - Agilis Robotics Limited ("Agilis Robotics" or the "Company"), the creator of the first surgical robotic instruments in Hong Kong to target endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and en bloc resection of bladder tumour (ERBT) procedures, has announced its fund-raising status, as well as its latest technological achievements.Agilis Robotics' A Round fund-raising has been completed in 2022, with the Pre-B Round, which involves fund raising for respective applications with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) set to commence. Such efforts will go towards improving the marketisation efficiency of the Company's products in the Mainland China. The Pre-B Round fund raising activity is projected to conclude by the end of 2022, with a fund-raising target set at US$5 million. It is worth noting that Agilis Robotics' has targeted its market value to meet the basic application requirement as stipulated in Chapter 18A pertaining to the listing of biotech companies on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange by 2025.In the area of robotics, Agilis Robotics has made further progress in the areas of specification, compatibility and AI. On the specifications front, its long, flexible and miniature robotic arms - with five degrees of freedom, have enhanced tissue traction and instrument triangulation. Since the robotic arms also include a variety of end effectors, they can complete a wide range of intricate tasks. What is more, seamless compatibility is realised as each robotic arm is less than 2.8 mm in diameter, hence they can directly channel through or alongside conventional endoscopes that are currently used in clinical practice. In terms of surgeon usability, improvements have been made to the surgeon console, which is both compact and mobile, thus allowing for its placement within close proximity to the patient. Furthermore, with free-floating pen controllers, seamless transition from endoscope controls can be achieved. Mindful of the benefits and importance of AI-driven guidance and training, Agilis Robotics has set performance benchmarks to enhance user training and flatten the learning curve. This includes training on such topics as monocular depth estimation and instrument segmentation for conventional endoscopes.It is worth noting that Agilis Robotics successfully completed in vivo testing, which involved the artificial bladder tumour resection in June 2022. The extremely narrow diameter of the robotic arms allowed their compatibility with traditional urology telescopes and sheaths, and the arms were able to clamp and cut tumour tissue. Most importantly, the entire tumour was successfully removed. The Company is now targeting its first-in-man (FIM) trial/test in 2024.Agilis Robotics has maintained progress on the back of successive achievements, spanning concept development to successful patent application(s); cadaveric testing for machine prototyping; and most recently, completion of in vivo testing which will lead to FIM trials. Despite the long development journey and high financial and technological demands, Agilis Robotics has consistently met its objectives.As the first and only company in Hong Kong to develop robotic instruments that target the ESD and ERBT segments, Agilis Robotics is well positioned to assist the medical community as demand for such procedures continue to rise. Already, manual procedures of the targeted market (gastrointestinal and bladder) in China in 2019 are 6 million per annum[1] and global bladder cancer cases in 2020 are 573 thousand[2]. Projected cases suitable for robotics ESD and ERBT procedures number 5.5 million and 690 thousand, respectively, around the world each year. With the worldwide promotion of early colorectal cancer screening, the number of ESD procedures is increasing rapidly by 18.6% annually[3]. Possessing the unique, small diameter flexible surgical robotic instruments that are compatible with both flexible and rigid endoscopes, the Company is in an advantageous position to address the unmet clinical demand for interventional endoscopy, and just as importantly, deliver benefits to patients in terms of shorter procedure time and lower rate of recurrence.Kwok Ka-Wai, Ph.D. (Imp London), Co-Founder of Agilis Robotics said, "Under the watchful eye of a professional management team comprising experts in robotics, clinical trials and finance, with thorough understanding and experience in R&D, clinical workflows and fund management, we will be able to address different facets of surgical device development. This same team will also ensure that Agilis Robotics fully capitalises on burgeoning market segments and maintain its growth trajectory."Jason Y K Chan, Residency at Johns Hopkins Medicine (DABOto), Co-Founder of Agilis Robotics said, "With the increasing widespread uptake of endoscopy procedures, in particular colorectal screening, there is a rapidly increasing unmet need to address and minimally invasively remove lesions identified. In the bladder, there is a significant unmet need to perform en bloc resections to reduce recurrence of bladder cancer. Agilis matches these needs and enhances the surgeon's ease and comfort in performing these procedures, aiming to improve patient care, reduce hospital length of stay and need for more invasive procedures.About Agilis Robotics LimitedAgilis Robotics is a start-up company that develops highly miniaturised and flexible robotic instruments for endoluminal surgery. The robotic system is able to seamlessly integrate into current clinical workflows and drastically reduce the learning curve associated with endoscopic surgery. Ultimately, Agilis Robotics' goal is to provide clinicians with the next-generation of minimally invasive instruments so more patients can receive effective and efficient early stage care. www.agilisrobotics.com About Co-Founders of Agilis Robotics LimitedDr. Ka-Wai Kwok obtained the Ph.D. degree from the Hamlyn Centre for Robotic Surgery, Department of Computing, Imperial College London.

Dah Sing Bank and Friends of the Earth (HK) Jointly Present Retail and E-Commerce ESG Forum for SMEs

HONG KONG, Sep 21, 2022 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - The second industry forum (the "Forum") under the SME ESG Best Practices Recognition Programme ("the Programme") took place today under the joint auspices of Dah Sing Bank, Limited ("Dah Sing Bank") and Friends of the Earth (HK) ("FoE HK"). It gathered business and industry leaders to discuss how SMEs in retail and e-commerce sector can meet market needs and expand their businesses while practising sustainable development concepts, promoting diversification and inclusiveness, improving business operations, and working together to enhance environmental, social and governance ("ESG") standards for a better life together.Mr. Plato Yip, Chairperson, Friends of the Earth (HK) delivering speechMs. Phoebe Wong, Deputy Chief Executive, Senior Executive Director, Group Head of Personal Banking, Dah Sing Bank delivering speechMs. Phoebe Wong, Deputy Chief Executive, Senior Executive Director, Group Head of Personal Banking, Dah Sing Bank (Right), Mr. Plato Yip, Chairperson, Friends of the Earth (HK) (Left)The Forum - Topic 1: Dialogue with listed companies: ESG trends for the Retail & e-Commerce Sector - Opportunities and Challenges for SMEsThe Forum - Topic 2: Dialogue with SMEs: The ESG impacts for SMEs - How to get started?In recent years, the retail industry has to face various environmental and social challenges. The gradual change in seasonal shopping patterns as a result of environmental risks such as climate change command retailers to be more agile in operation to adapt to the changing sales seasons. Issues such as plastic wastes and more complex logistics are also among the challenges the industry is facing. As for social risks, with consumers' spending patterns changing, and the emphasis on healthy products and food safety growing, retailers need better understanding of customers' brand perception and preferences in order to retain and attract customers. In addition, technologies and their applications are changing the retail industry landscape. With fewer manpower needed at physical stores, employees need to be more capable of dealing with customers and managing changes. Practising ESG will help SMEs strengthen their ability to mitigate these potential risks.In the opening speech, Mr Plato Yip, Chairperson of FoE HK, said, "In recent years, the epidemic has accelerated the pace of digital transformation of businesses, with online shopping becoming the new norm for Hong Kong consumers. To stand out in this highly competitive market, retailers must not only adapt to the new norm, but also interact more closely with consumers and build closer ties with them. The ability of the industry to position itself accurately, keep abreast of the latest trends, and prepare for the challenges ahead is crucial not only for the businesses themselves but also for the Hong Kong retail industry as a whole. As SMEs seek to accelerate their transformation and breakthrough, ESG is one of the most effective ways to help them save costs, win reputation, and improve their competitiveness in an adverse market."Ms Phoebe Wong, Deputy Chief Executive, Senior Executive Director and Group Head of Personal Banking of Dah Sing Bank, said, "The 'SME ESG Best Practices Recognition Programme' is a partnership between Dah Sing Bank and FoE HK to raise ESG awareness among SMEs in different industries, and our aim is to encourage them to implement ESG practices to save costs and gain customers and word-of-mouth in a competitive market. The retail industry contributes enormously to Hong Kong's economy, and e-commerce has also been growing rapidly in recent years. However, increasing consumer attention on eco-lifestyles and responsible consumption is presenting challenges and opportunities for both traditional retail and e-commerce operators.

HKTDC Export Index 3Q22: Exporter confidence continues to improve

HONG KONG, Sep 19, 2022 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - The sentiment among Hong Kong exporters continues to improve. The HKTDC Export Index increased a further 1.9 points to 32.8 in the third quarter of 2022, indicating a sustained improvement in confidence in the short-term export performance. However, exporters are facing downward pressure on prices, with the Trade Value Index falling 11.5 points to 40.2.HKTDC Director of Research Irina Fan and Corey To announced the HKTDC Export Index for the third quarter of 2022 at a press conference today (19 September).HKTDC Director of Research Irina Fan told a press conference today that a deteriorating external environment was keeping the recovery slower than hoped. "Weakening demand in major markets dampened by high inflation and aggressive monetary tightening, coupled with rising Sino-US trade tensions and other fallouts from the Russia-Ukraine conflict, also cloud the export outlook," she said.The HKTDC conducts the Export Index survey every quarter, interviewing some 500 Hong Kong exporters from six major industries - machinery, electronics, jewellery, watches and clocks, toys and clothing - to gauge business confidence in near-term export prospects. The Index indicates an optimistic or pessimistic outlook, with 50 as the dividing line.Shift in focusMs Fan said more than half of the respondents (52.0%) in the latest exporters' survey view the shortened quarantine requirement in the Mainland China - a seven-day centralised stay plus three days of home confinement - as positive for business. She added that enabling more flexible business travel arrangements (53.8%), the gradual resumption of cross-border commerce and trade (33.0%), and a smoother production flow (31.8%) were cited as the top benefits.While the impacts of the pandemic continue to decline, COVID-19-related issues remain among the top concerns for Hong Kong exporters over the next three months. Most respondents said COVID-19 persistence (40.2%) and border closure (22.6%) are the major impediments to export performance."To help them deal with this changing environment, Hong Kong businesses are tending to shift from being market-focused to more money-focused," Ms Fan said. Developing other product categories (36.9%) and stabilising finances to ensure sufficient cash flow (35.6%) are the most popular business strategies adopted by the survey respondents. Additionally, more of them said they intend to increase unit prices (35.2%, up 18 percentage points).Jewellery, Japan outperformHKTDC Economist Corey To said jewellery was currently the most promising sector with the highest sub-index at 44.2, followed by toys at 37.0. The jewellery sector also showed the largest improvement, with a 9.9-point increase from the previous quarter, while the electronics sector gained 2.3 points to 32.7.Mr To said Asia continues to provide a relatively promising outlook, adding that Japan remains the best performer at 48.4 (up 0.8 points), followed by the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) bloc (46.9, up 3.6 points) and Mainland China (45.8, up 2.7 points).Recovering supply chainsHe said the pandemic impact on businesses tended to be less severe in the third quarter as compared with April-June. "Fewer respondents experienced negative impacts on their business resulting from the pandemic (77.9%, down 1.2 percentage points). Among them, those whose business had been very negatively affected fell 11.8 percentage points to 23.4%."Mr To said rising transportation costs (64.1%) and logistics disruptions (51.8%) remained the key challenges for Hong Kong exporters, though both fell significantly - by 8.5 and 13.4 percentage points respectively - from the previous quarter, reflecting the gradual easing of supply chain issues. "But it is worth noting that more respondents reported communications issues with overseas buyers/suppliers (48.2%, up 26.6 percentage points) and order cancellations (21.2%, up 4.5 percentage points)."References- HKTDC Research website: http://research.hktdc.com/- HKTDC Export Index 3Q22: Gradual Recovery Underway https://bit.ly/3BetyBI- Photo download: https://bit.ly/3Lm8UUVAbout HKTDCThe Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) is a statutory body established in 1966 to promote, assist and develop Hong Kong's trade.

With the COVID-19 pandemic gradually easing, physical events have started to resume. This year's IR Awards Conference and Awards Presentation Ceremony took a hybrid mode, with IR experts and professionals invited to join discussions sharing their different perspectives on strategies, latest trends, effective processes and best practices of investor relations. HKIRA was particularly honoured to have Mr Christopher Hui, GBS, JP, Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury, as the guest of honour and keynote speaker at the Awards Presentation Ceremony.The 8th IR Awards 2022 had widespread support from listed companies and the investment sector. There were a total of 152 company nominees in the Awards this year, reflective of a growing awareness of the importance of investor relations. As in previous years, the award winners were first nominated by the public, then selected via online polling by qualified voters among buy-side and sell-side investors. More than 790 investors from over 290 financial institutions voted this year. The continued support is proof of the recognition the IR Awards enjoys in the investor community. With investor relations gaining emphasis in the industry, HKIRA has kept striving to enhance the standard of IR excellence in Hong Kong by optimising the award mechanism to make sure of the quality of the awards. Of all the award categories, "Overall Best IR Company" is the most prestigious as the winner is selected by the judging panel among the winners of all the award categories for demonstrating all-round exemplary performance in investor relations. This year, the winners of Overall Best IR Company by company size - Large Cap, Mid Cap, and Small Cap - are China Resources Beer (Holdings) Company Limited; Yue Yuen Industrial (Holdings) Limited; and Sa Sa International Holdings Limited respectively.Dr Eva Chan, Founding Chairman of HKIRA, said, "We are very happy to be able to meet all of you in person again at this year's event, in this gathering of our member companies, IROs and friends from the investment community. In this post-pandemic new normal, the event again took the 'hybrid' mode, with the conference and award ceremony streaming live online so a wider audience could join. I would like to express my gratitude to the different participating parties and their assistance in helping us prepare for the event. "In the past year, the mainland government tightened policies on specific sectors like Education, Real Estate, IT, among others, which negatively affected the business and share prices of some listed companies. As a result, the number of participating companies for the IR Award this year is 10% lower than the previous year. To uphold the standard of the IR Award, the panel judge has decided to reduce the number of awards this year. With travel restricted between China and Hong Kong, investors have relied heavily on IROs in the two places for latest information to help them plan investment strategies and make decisions wisely, hence they are requiring listed companies to be more proactive and effective in disclosing information. IROs have thus become a crucial information portal and a major bridge for companies to interact with investors, helping listed companies to connect with local and global investors and analysts under the new normal."Strategic Public Relations Group is again proud to be the Official Public Relations Partner and Diamond Sponsor of HKIRA IR Awards 2022.

安乐工程获奖项目AMSFS III在中国内地取得专利 ACN Newswire

安乐工程获奖项目AMSFS III在中国内地取得专利

HONG KONG, Sep 15, 2022 - (亚太商讯 via SEAPRWire.com) - 香港领先的机电工程服务供应商之一安乐工程集团有限公司(股份代号:1977)(「安乐工程」或「公司」,连同附属公司统称(「安乐工程集团」或「集团」)今天宣布集团研发的获奖(1) 污水处理技术「一体化磁介质高效沉淀池」(「AMSFS III」)获中国国家知识产权局授予实用新型专利证书,进一步加强集团庞大专利组合实力,展示集团对技术创新和环境保护的专业知识和承诺。中国国家知识产权局授予的实用新型专利证书安乐工程内部研发的污水处理技术「一体化磁介质高效沉淀池」(「AMSFS III」) 已应用于中国内地污水处理项目安乐工程内部研发的污水处理技术「一体化磁介质高效沉淀池」(「AMSFS III」) 已应用于中国内地污水处理项目安乐工程集团主席潘乐陶博士表示:「我们很高兴AMSFS III技术获国家知识产权局授予实用新型专利,这是对集团各团队跨地域合作和内部技术研发能力的高度认可。传统污水处理系统市场发展成熟,然而偏远村庄和农村地区对易于安装的污水处理系统需求激增。凭借我们高度灵活的一体化AMSFS III系统,相信我们有能力把握中国内地及『一带一路』倡议国家的发展商机。展望未来,我们将继续追求技术突破,通过持续创新,加强环境保护和改善社会生活质素。」AMSFS III由集团的香港及内地团队共同设计和建设,并于集团的南京厂房制造。AMSFS III为一体化污水处理系统,采用最新的建造技术,包括建筑讯息模拟(「BIM」)、组装合成建筑法(「MiC」)和机电装备合成法(「MiMEP」)。有别于传统系统必须在现场进行全部工序,AMSFS III通过应用上述技术,可在厂房预制、安装及测试。由于AMSFS III占地面积只需要少于50平方米,因此更具灵活性,亦减少对周围环境的负面影响,例如施工现场产生的灰尘及噪音污染。AMSFS III采用一体化的设计及地埋式安装;成本和效能方面,其全自动控制的系统具有遥距监控功能,减少操作人员数量,节省人力和维护成本,达致更高效率。AMSFS III已应用于集团在中国内地的污水处理项目,对国家污水处理设施的发展有重大贡献。其中,位于安徽省合肥市的十五里河金寨路初期雨水调蓄工程应用AMSFS III去除部分悬浮固体和总磷,令出水在无需后续的过滤系统之下达到排放标准,并降低整体建设成本。集团亦于安徽省庐江县马槽河流域的污水处理系统提标工程中采用AMSFS III,以确保水质达到《城镇污水处理厂污染物排放标准》的一级A标准。展望未来,我们预见偏远村庄和农村地区对小型、分散式污水处理厂的需求殷切。由于AMSFS III占地面积小,特别适合该等地区。随着国家「十四五规划」严格执行环境保护相关计划,要求污水处理厂的排放能达致国家一级A标准,将为小型及易于运输的污水处理系统提供新机遇。有关安乐工程集团安乐工程集团成立于1977年,总部设于香港,为领先的机电工程服务供应商,业务遍及澳门、中国内地、美国及英国。集团为不同行业,包括公共和私营的客户提供跨专业、综合性的机电工程和技术服务,涵盖屋宇装备工程、环境工程、信息、通讯及屋宇科技(「ICBT」),以及升降机及自动梯等四大业务板块。安乐工程之控股公司为安乐工程集团有限公司,于香港交易所主板挂牌(股份代号:1977)。(1) AMSFS III于香港总商会举办的「2021-22香港工商业奬-创意」荣获「创意奖」 Copyright 2022 亚太商讯.
