Renovaro Inc. (NASDAQ: RENB) Aims To Revolutionize Cancer Detection And Treatment Using Multi-Cancer Detection Model With Nvidia AI Chips For Leadership In Early Detection

Benzinga

By James Blacker, Benzinga Despite the large numbers of people affected, cancer treatments have largely produced unsatisfactory results to curb the rise in cases. According to the American Cancer Society, more than 2 million new cancer cases are projected to be diagnosed in the United States in 2024, with over 600,000 cancer deaths expected to occur. Cancer is already the second-leading cause of death in the U.S. overall and the leading cause among people under 85, and analysis from Yale Medicine indicates that new cases of cancer are ticking upward. It’s clear the disease remains a formidable challenge, which is driving companies such as California-based biotechnology firm Renovaro Inc. (NASDAQ: RENB) to pioneer groundbreaking solutions to revolutionize diagnostics and offer more efficient treatment. Renovaro’s Mission To Advance Cancer Care Renovaro is on a mission to accelerate precision and offer personalized medicine for longevity. It leverages AI and biotechnology platforms to enable early diagnosis, better-targeted treatments and drug discovery. The company comprises a biotech arm, RenovaroBio, which focuses on advanced cell-gene immunotherapy, and an AI arm, RenovaroCube, which is committed to the early detection of cancer, its recurrence and subsequent treatment. Alliances With Industry Leaders What makes Renovaro’s approach so unique is its AI platform for diagnosis, which was made possible thanks to a strategic alliance with Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ: NVDA). In August 2023 Renovaro announced its alliance with Nvidia’s Inception program, which allows it to deploy next-generation AI running on Nvidia’s latest chips for greater accuracy in cancer detection. Renovaro also announced in April that it plans to acquire 100% of Dutch health-tech firm Cyclomics, amending its initial agreement to acquire 75% of the company. Once the acquisition is complete, Renovaro will be able to use Cyclomics’ 4 th generation molecular technology, developed in partnership with Oxford Nanopore Technologies PLC (LON: ONT), to identify single cancer DNA molecules from a single vial of blood with nearly 100% accuracy. Introducing Flamingo: A Game-Changer In Multi-Cancer Detection Also in April this year, Renovaro unveiled Flamingo, “a potentially groundbreaking multi-cancer detection model,” according to the company. Flamingo leverages ultra-low pass whole genome sequencing of cell-free DNA (cfDNA), allowing early detection of cancers. While traditional cancer detection methods can fail to identify cancer at an early stage – when treatment is most effective – Flamingo harnesses the power of AI to perform highly accurate analysis of minute amounts of cfDNA data to distinguish cancer from healthy samples. Ultimately, this potentially allows cancer interventions to happen earlier and improves patient outcomes. “[Flamingo] will accelerate our efforts to realize a paradigm shift in cancer detection,” shares RenovaroCube CTO Frank van Asch. “With its introduction, we are one step closer to realizing our vision of a world where cancer is detected and treated swiftly, saving countless lives in the process.

American Aires Inc. Executing a Strategy To Increase Exposure And Drive Sales

AAIRF, EDR, FOX, RUM

In our modern, technologically driven world, the proliferation of electronic devices emitting electromagnetic fields (EMFs) has raised significant concerns. While these EMFs have undoubtedly improved our lives in terms of convenience and connectivity, they also pose unintended health consequences. Scientific studies have shown that EMF radiation exposure can lead to brain inflammation, tissue damage, and the development of various diseases, including neurodegenerative conditions. This correlation between brain electrical activity and cognitive function underscores the potential risks of prolonged EMF exposure. Pioneering Protection Canadian-based nanotechnology company American Aires Inc. (CSE: WIFI) (OTC: AAIRF) has emerged as a pioneer in addressing the harmful effects of EMF radiation. With over 20 years of dedication and at least $20 million invested in research and development, American Aires has developed cutting-edge solutions to mitigate EMF exposure and optimize human health. The cornerstone of American Aires' technology is its proprietary silicon-based resonator, designed to protect against EMF radiation. Unlike traditional methods that aim to block or absorb radiation, American Aires' technology actively modulates EMFs, creating a protective barrier around electronic devices. These sleek and stylish devices provide personal and area protection without the need for a power source, targeting EMR emitted by various consumer electronic devices, including cellphones, computers, baby monitors, and Wi-Fi, including high-speed 5G networks. Scientific Validation The effectiveness of American Aires' microchip in reducing the harmful effects of EMF radiation has been reaffirmed by the scientific community. A recently published study in the Link Journal confirmed the chip's stabilizing capabilities, supported by eight peer-reviewed studies and 25 clinical and scientific reports, validating the technology. This scientific validation underscores the credibility and reliability of American Aires' solutions in the EMF protection space. Recent Exposure American Aires Inc. (OTC: AAIRF) (CSE: WIFI) American Aires has effectively prioritized public education and brand exposure, recognizing the pivotal role they play in expanding its market presence. CEO Josh Bruni's recent appearance on the Fox News Buiness Channel national TV series "Health Uncensored with Dr. Drew" on May 5, 2024, signifies a significant milestone for the company. This appearance provided a substantial platform for American Aires to showcase its innovative solutions to a vast audience. Broadcasting on a reputable network like Fox News (NASDAQ: FOX), which reaches hundreds of millions of households across the nation, underscores the magnitude of this opportunity. By featuring on such a prominent platform, AAIRF aimed to not only educate viewers about the importance of safeguarding against electromagnetic radiation but also to significantly raise awareness about the company and its mission. CEO Josh Bruni's presence on the program further solidified the company's commitment to transparency, education, and promoting awareness of its groundbreaking technology. To watch the segment and learn more about American Aires' innovative solutions, click here. Additionally, AAIRF has expanded its reach through a series of impactful partnerships and alliances. In a recent collaboration with Endeavor Group Holdings (NYSE: EDR ) subsidiary William Morris Endeavor Entertainment (WME), a powerhouse in the entertainment, sports, and fashion industries, American Aires aims to amplify its brand presence and extend its reach. This partnership promises to spotlight the manifold benefits of Aires' wellness and performance optimization solutions, leveraging WME's extensive network of top-tier artists, athletes, and content creators. The company's #airesathletes campaign further demonstrates its commitment to widening and deepening relationships with top athletes and celebrities. Partnering with renowned figures like Tiki Barber, the former NFL running back, American Aires showcases how its technology benefits athletes and consumers alike, promoting optimal performance and rapid recovery. Continuing its trajectory of strategic exposure, AAIRF announced a pivotal collaboration with Rumble Inc. (NASDAQ: RUM), a leading social video platform with a global reach. This partnership builds upon the company's ongoing efforts to amplify its brand presence and reach a wider audience. The groundwork for the Rumble partnership began over the past year, with AAIRF and RUM working together to test the traffic and conversion performance of the video platform. This collaboration paved the way for American Aires to officially launch a pilot test consisting of a paid ad campaign on Rumble. As part of this campaign, one of Rumble's most popular influencers, English comedian, actor, and influencer Russell Brand, with 1.87 million followers on the platform, will read one Aires ad per week over multiple episodes of his show on Rumble. Additionally, Rumble will display pre-roll "run of network" ad placements before or after Brand's shows air during the campaign. Commenting on the significance of this collaboration, American Aires CEO Josh Bruni stated, "It's very significant that this test campaign features Russell Brand. He not only aligns well with the Aires brand but also has a growing global audience through Rumble and across other media platforms that can reach potential Aires customers around the world." Financial Performance American Aires Inc. (OTC: AAIRF) has experienced robust revenue growth, doubling its revenue consistently over the past two years. In the first nine months of 2022 alone, the company generated $5.5 million in revenue, representing a 63% year-over-year increase. With extrapolated growth, American Aires could potentially achieve $10 million in sales in 2023. Moreover, AAIRF boasts superior profit margins, with gross margins averaging about 60%, rivaling top technology companies like Nvidia and Apple. The company reached a significant milestone by achieving positive adjusted EBITDA in its most recent quarter, highlighting its financial strength and growth potential. Furthermore, American Aires continues to demonstrate its industry leadership with recent announcements. The company achieved record Q4 and annual 2023 order volume, coupled with significant EBITDA profitability in Q4. This financial success reflects American Aires' sustained growth trajectory and its commitment to delivering value to shareholders. American Aires Inc. (OTC: AAIRF) (CSE: WIFI) stands at the forefront of the EMF protection and human optimization industries, offering innovative solutions to address the growing concerns surrounding electromagnetic radiation. Recent advancements, strong financial results, partnerships, and scientific validation of its patented technology all contribute to American Aires reaffirming its leadership in enhancing human well-being in a technology-driven world.

Older Americans Are Facing a Loneliness Crisis:

YourUpdateTV

Media tour conducted to discuss how AmeriCorps Seniors can help by fostering connections and providing purpose. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/dcH7-VsQaYQ Older adults are especially vulnerable to loneliness and social isolation, which can have a serious effect on health, according to a recent report issued by the U.S. Surgeon General. Chronic loneliness (persistent feelings of isolation and/or a lack of companionship) can adversely affect mental, cognitive, and physical health, general well-being and even longevity. However, there are ways to overcome loneliness and volunteering might be the answer. AmeriCorps Seniors is helping older adults form connections in their community, provide purpose and improve their lives through volunteering. After two years of volunteering with AmeriCorps Seniors, 78% of those who reported more than five symptoms of depression at the beginning of the study said that they felt less depressed two years later. 88% of those who first described a lack of companionship said they felt less isolated after two years. AmeriCorps is the federal agency for national service and volunteerism. AmeriCorps Seniors focuses on engaging adults ages 55 and up in service in their local communities. Through three signature programs, R-S-V-P, the Foster Grandparent Program and the Senior Companion Program, AmeriCorps Seniors provides a space for older adults to take charge of this moment in life and use their time in impactful ways. Each year, AmeriCorps Seniors matches more than ONE HUNDRED FORTY THOUSAND Americans with service opportunities. For example, Shelley Brosnan, a volunteer with AmeriCorps Seniors RSVP through Volunteer Fairfax, Fairfax, Va., said, “Giving back is so very important. I’ve been volunteering for most of my adult life. Volunteering allows me to connect with my community and make it a better place. I also love the social aspects and meeting people who share my interests. We have a chance to help others and form new relationships, which has grown my social circle.” RSVP offers flexible scheduling and a diverse mix of opportunities. The Foster Grandparent Program pairs volunteers with children and youth in mentoring and tutoring relationships. Lastly, the Senior Companion Program provides a helping hand to other older adults and those with disabilities. They also support caregivers through respite services.

How Can Small Investors Access Private Deals With Big Potential?

OurCrowd

By MATTHEW KALMAN OurCrowd allows investors to stake a claim in promising startups for as little as $10,000 “Stripe, a payments startup, is one of the most successful companies to emerge from Silicon Valley in a generation. Last year, it hit a valuation of $65 billion. But in the 15 years since it was founded, there has not been a way for most individuals to invest in it,” Erin Griffith reported in The New York Times in April. “It is a problem that has vexed retail investors for years, as startups like Stripe, SpaceX and OpenAI soar to enormous valuations in the private market,” Griffith says. “By the time the companies go public a decade or more after they started, their growth has often slowed and their valuations are high.” Even if you can access such deals, the minimum investment is “often very high,” James Seyffart, a research analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence, tells Griffith. One rare access point for such private deals is OurCrowd, a global investment platform that has introduced its worldwide community of over 235,000 accredited investors to opportunities in more than 460 portfolio companies, attracting over $2.3 billion in commitments to date. The minimum investment in a single startup deal through OurCrowd can be as little as $10,000. <iframe width="560" height="315" src= https://www.youtube.com/embed/MOoAs0m2JRE?si=qS2U_CDdsArdnTip title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe> The definition of “accredited investor” varies, depending on your jurisdiction. In the U.S., the SEC sets the bar at someone with an annual income of at least $200,000, or a net worth of $1 million or more. That’s because investing in startups is a high-return, high-risk business and investors must be wealthy and sophisticated enough to realize what they are getting into. Startup companies seeking private investment generally prefer to attract VCs, institutions, pension funds and high net worth individuals who can commit at least six-figure sums. This keeps the company’s cap table clean, allowing its executives to concentrate on building their business instead of fielding phone calls from dozens of retail investors. The result: thousands of would-be investors are locked out of opportunities where startups can sometimes grow by 50x or 100x. Extending Access The OurCrowd model blows open this exclusive club, extending access to these potential blockbuster deals to thousands of investors for whom a $100,000 investment in a single company is too high, but $10,000 is attractive. “OurCrowd is enabling hundreds of thousands of investors around the world to access the exciting venture capital asset class,” says Jon Medved, OurCrowd’s founder and CEO. “It turns out that if you want to make real money today, you have to invest in startup companies before they go public. In the good old days, you could have invested in something like Amazon or Microsoft, held it from an IPO and made thousands of times your money. But today that's not possible because the private companies are going public much later.” “The smart money, the smart investor, wants to find a way to get into these exciting dynamic growth stories while they're still private,” Medved says. While SpaceX did not appear on the OurCrowd platform, members have invested in Axiom Space, selected by NASA to build the successor to the International Space Station and NASA’s new generation of space suits; Stoke Space, which is developing reusable rockets for daily launch missions; ICON, which is creating 3D-printed housing for use on the Moon; and Ursa Major, America’s only independent provider of aerospace propulsion engines for the commercial space, hypersonic and defense launch markets. Likewise, OpenAI is not available via OurCrowd, but other promising AI companies have recently attracted millions of dollars of investment and, for investors wishing to further diversify, OurCrowd also offers a dedicated AI Fund. “It’s traditionally very hard for accredited investors and even family offices to invest in individual startup investment opportunities,” says Lisa Graston, OurCrowd’s associate director for Investor Relations. “You can invest via a VC fund, but then you’re relinquishing control and you’re dependent on the fund managers.” “Historically, the VC asset class has outperformed the public markets and it’s an asset class that’s really difficult to access. We are really democratizing the space,” Graston adds. To give investors added comfort, OurCrowd vets every opportunity offered on its platform and selects only a small number, invests its own money in every deal, and co-investors often include many of the world’s leading VCs and institutions. By participating through OurCrowd, smaller investors can secure access to some of the best classes of shares, anti-dilution protection and other privileges usually reserved for major shareholders. “It can be difficult to get a clear picture of the current valuation of a private company when you are investing through secondary marketplaces. When you invest with OurCrowd you are joining a funding round alongside other very experienced dealmakers, reducing the risk of investing at an outsized price compared to the current company value,” Graston says. OurCrowd is not a passive investor. It takes an active role in helping the companies added to its portfolio to succeed, often taking a seat on the board and introducing them to potential partners, customers and future investors. Recently, OurCrowd extended its offering beyond VC funds to additional private market alternatives, including venture debt, private credit and private equity funds where the entry ticket can start at half a million dollars or more. OurCrowd makes funds from top-tier managers available to investors at much lower minimums, enabling many more people to participate in these opportunities. “The innovation wave, which is changing all of our lives – whether telemedicine or e-commerce or climate change – is going to be led by entrepreneurs who are backed by smart money and smart investors,” Medved says. “OurCrowd is where those entrepreneurs meet the smart money on a global basis, where they can work together to benefit everyone.” For more information about investing in startups with OurCrowd, click HERE. Featured photo courtesy of OurCrowd. OurCrowd was started in 2013, driven by the idea that the business of building startups grows bigger and better when the global ‘crowd’ gains access to VC-level investment opportunities.Today, OurCrowd is a global venture and alternative investing platform that empowers institutions and individuals to invest and engage in emerging companies. OurCrowd vets and selects companies, invests its capital, and provides its global network with unparalleled access to co-invest and contribute connections, talent and deal flow. OurCrowd builds value for its portfolio companies throughout their lifecycles, providing mentorship, recruiting industry advisors, navigating follow-on rounds and creating growth opportunities through its network of multinational partnerships.
