Intus Care to Host Virtual Roundtable on “PACE & The Future of Healthcare Data Interoperability”

Intus Care

Intus Care, a technology leader in the PACE market, will host a virtual conversation on “PACE and the Future of Healthcare Data Interoperability” with prominent guests within healthcare and the PACE (Programs of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) community. Intus Care Cofounder and CEO Robbie Felton will moderate a discussion among Shawn Bloom, CEO and president of the National PACE Association (NPA); Dr. David Feinberg, Chairman of Oracle Health (formerly CEO of Cerner); and Stephanie Rock, Vice President of Product at Intus Care. The discussion will center around healthcare system interoperability, the importance of interoperability, and the current interoperability challenges that remain. In particular, the conversation will focus around: What can the PACE community learn from modern interoperability standards by the broader value-based care community? Why does PACE need an interoperable and modular technology strategy as the model expands? The hour virtual roundtable is scheduled for Thursday, November 14 at 1 p.m. ET. Anyone interested in interoperability, healthcare, and PACE is invited to listen to the discussion. Registration is open now. PACE is a “comprehensive, fully integrated, provider-based health plan for the frailest and costliest members of our society – those who require a nursing home level of care,” according to the National PACE Association. The goal, however, is to provide care that allows those enrolled to continue living at home and in their communities. Nationally, 95% of participants continue to live at home. The model is now considered the gold standard for seniors with complex care needs. According to the NPA, there are currently 178 PACE programs serving more than 78,500 participants in 33 states and the District of Columbia. As the U.S. population ages – adults 65 years or older will increase 30%, from 63 million to 82 million, accounting for nearly one-quarter of the U.S. population by 2050 – the need for PACE to expand will only increase. To scale effectively, PACE organizations need technology that meets their needs, including a unified documentation system that integrates and shares data securely and seamlessly. "The future of interoperability in PACE lies in seamless data sharing across care teams, empowering providers to deliver truly coordinated, patient-centered care," said Felton. "While progress has been made, there are still regulatory and technological hurdles for this to be truly realized for PACE organizations, but its realization will unlock unprecedented value and transform how we care for our aging population. I look forward to unpacking this with our esteemed guests for the virtual fireside chat." Registration for the virtual roundtable is open now. A recording will be available following the event for individuals unable to attend live. About Intus Care Intus Care creates technology and services for PACE and value-based care organizations to achieve operational efficiency and better clinical and financial outcomes. Intus Care currently works with over 60 PACE programs across 16 states. Visit our website to learn more at intuscare.com.

YXT.COM Is Turning The Corporate Training Market On Its Head With Its AI First Approach, And It’s Already Made A Name In China

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga Thanks to rapid internet penetration in China over the past decade, advances in artificial intelligence and the acceleration of the digital economy in one of the world’s most populous countries, digital learning, particularly among companies, seems to be taking off. As of 2023, the digital corporate learning market in China was valued at RMB 126.0 billion, according to Frost & Sullivan. Its forecast is to reach RMB 300.0 billion in 2028, growing at a CAGR of 18.9%. Among large enterprises in China, the market is projected to grow at an even higher CAGR of 20.5%. It makes sense that companies are embracing digital training, even without considering the disruptive impact of AI. Not only does digital training reduce costs for enterprises, it gives companies of all sizes access to a wide range of learning resources that can improve engagement and increase outcomes among workers. The old way of training, which typically relies on in-person educators to address a broad group of workers, tends to be more costly and can be relatively untargeted. With digital training, employees can learn at their own pace and engage in content geared toward their unique needs, which many enterprises are betting will improve engagement and outcomes. It comes at a time when AI, machine learning and other technology developments are reshaping the way we work and the skills we need. Enterprise self-training is expected to play an important role in readying the workers of tomorrow. While China’s enterprise digital learning market has shown growth in recent years, one company citing Frost & Sullivan data believes there’s still significant room for improvement in the penetration rate of enterprise digital learning. Welcome To The Era Of Self-Training That’s what YXT.com – or YXT.com Group (NASDAQ: YXT) – the Chinese digital enterprise learning solutions provider, is betting on. The company is leveraging a SaaS services model to usher in a new era in corporate training, allowing companies to target content to specific groups and skill sets online. It’s why YXT.com has 2,545 customers in about 20 industries, including over 200 Chinese Fortune 500 enterprises. Some sectors using YXT.com’s digital learning software include manufacturing, new retail, catering, finance and automotive. YXT.com counts well-known enterprises like Schneider Electric SE (OTC: SBGSY), Shiseido Co. Ltd (OTC: SSDOY), Sany Group, Yunnan Baiyao Group Co. Ltd (SHE: 000538), Huazhu Group (NASDAQ:HTHT) and NIO Inc. (NYSE: NIO) as customers. Among its subscription customers, YXT.com says the net revenue retention rate was 106.1% at the end of March. At last check, YXT.com offered its customers more than 8,200 courses with a total learning time of over 20,500 hours. Of that, 6,800 hours are proprietary courses. Technology Underpins The Offering YXT.com can offer so much digital learning content thanks to its focus on leveraging technology to provide customers with targeted training and learning paths for employees based on their positions and required skills. Using the insights the company has gleaned across different industries and business scenarios, YXT.com says it can offer companies a personalized recommendation engine that designs optimal learning paths for employees. The company says its solutions accurately match personnel, positions and courses for employees across China. Embedded in its learning platforms are speech recognition, adaptive learning, anti-cheating and simulation training, which make corporate learning more intelligent, exciting and effective, reports YXT.com. Cash In The Coffers After IPO The company’s successes include a U.S. listing. YXT.com went public on the NASDAQ in August, raising $25 million. Proceeds of its IPO are going to grow the business via research and development and technology investments, brand marketing and business promotions. The company is targeting enterprises with over 1,000 employees with its digital training platform. It’s an area of the market that Frost & Sullivan predicts will grow at a CAGR of 20.5% from now until 2028. YXT.com says focusing on large enterprise customers is speeding its path to profitability. The company says large enterprises have recurring annual budgets in place for enterprise learning, which gives YXT.com access to more stable revenue. Since focusing on large enterprises, the company says it has reduced sales, R&D and management expenses. "YXT.com's successful listing on the US NASDAQ is an important milestone in the company's development journey and a new starting point,” YXT.com’s founder and chairman Lu Ruize said at the time of the IPO. “After completing the listing, YXT.com will leverage the power of the capital market to provide more competitive products and better services to customers with stronger technological capabilities in the AI era, promoting the digital and intelligent development of China's human resources technology and enhancing the global competitiveness of Chinese enterprises." YXT.com’s stock may not be as high as when it went public in August, suffering from what may be a lack of attention from the capital market. Still, the company sees a big opportunity in bringing China’s workforce into the digital age thanks to its technology-driven adaptive learning SaaS model, and Frost & Sullivan data cited by the company in a regulatory filing states that YXT.com was already the largest digital corporate learning solution provider in China in terms of total revenue, subscription revenue and number of subscription customers in 2023. With the digital training market taking off and a client roster that includes big-name companies, YXT.com may be worth keeping an eye on for those interested in the market.

iLearningEngines, Inc. Shareholders who Lost Money on Their Investments are Encouraged to Contact Johnson Fistel about the Class Action Lawsuit

iLearningEngines Inc

Johnson Fistel, LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has commenced on behalf of investors of iLearningEngines, Inc. (NASDAQ: AILE) that seeks to recover losses on behalf of investors who acquired between April 22, 2024, and August 28, 2024, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period"). If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than December 6, 2024. If you incurred losses and want to act as the lead plaintiff in the class action lawsuit or determine if you are eligible to receive a potential recovery of your losses, follow the link provided: POTENTIALLY RECOVER YOUR LOSSES HERE For more information, contact James Baker, at (619) 814-4471, jimb@johnsonfistel.com or fjohnson@johnsonfistel.com The complaint alleges that defendants made false statements and/or concealed that: (1) the Company's "Technology Partner" was an undisclosed related party; (2) the Company used its undisclosed related party Technology Partner to report "largely fake" revenue and expenses; (3) as a result of the foregoing, the Company significantly overstated its revenue; and (4) as a result of the foregoing, defendants' positive statements about the Company's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. Johnson Fistel began an investigation on August 27, 2024, when Hindenburg Research issued a report on iLearningEngines highlighting some concerns regarding the company's operations. According to the report, in November 2023, before the IPO, the SEC inquired whether the “Technology Partner” was a related party. The company replied that it was not. Hindenburg states further that “Technology Partner” is a UAE-based entity named Experion Technologies, identified through documents related to a debt transaction. We believe this entity is an undisclosed related party, suggesting that iLearningEngines misled the SEC. According to a 2020 web capture, the American contact for Experion was listed as the CEO of iLearningEngines. Additionally, a 2022 web capture showed the American address for Experion as the personal residence of iLearningEngines’ CEO. Investor Action Steps: Shareholders who incurred losses during the class period have until December 6, 2024, to move the court to become a lead plaintiff in this action. A lead plaintiff will act on behalf of all other class members in directing the class-action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the class-action lawsuit. An investor's ability to share any potential future recovery of the class action lawsuit is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

City of Portland, NTEN, and Comcast Announce Fellows Selected to Help Expand Digital Equity Programs Locally

Comcast Pacific Northwest

Today, the City of Portland, Comcast, and NTEN announced the five fellows and organizations in the 2024 Portland Digital Equity Service Corps (DESC) that were selected to receive a grant of up to $5,000 to help launch or expand a sustainable digital literacy program within their missions. They are: Marina Alvarez, Latino Network; Isa Alvarez, Hacienda CDC; Jeremy Gomez, Free Geek; Rukia Aweys Mohamed, African Refugee Immigrant Organization; and Fabiola Sanchez from Rosewood Initiative. In addition to funding assistance, the DESC fellows will receive training in program design and management, accessibility, adult education learning methods, impact evaluation, coalition building, leadership skills, workforce development strategies, and more. The Portland DESC, administered by NTEN, was selected as a $250,000 grant winner of the Talent for Tomorrow: Digital Equity Challenge that was launched as a joint initiative earlier this year by the U.S. Conference of Mayors (USCM) and Comcast’s Project UP. The Digital Equity Challenge supports the development and expansion of local workforce programs designed to grow college and career readiness, close the digital skills gap, advance economic mobility, and lay the foundation for generational wealth in under-resourced communities. “Tackling digital equity requires multi-stakeholder collaboration and a holistic approach to inclusive community access. We believe that the outcomes from this fellowship will help expand pathways for educational and workforce advancement,” said Rebecca Gibbons, City of Portland Digital Equity Manager. “Nationwide and locally, Indigenous people, Black Americans, Latino Americans, low-income households and people living with disabilities face barriers that result in the lowest rates of accessibility to the internet and to devices. The City of Portland’s strategy to closing the digital divide calls for a cross-sectional and root-cause approach.” The Portland DESC, which models and builds on a decade of insights from NTEN's Digital Inclusion Fellowship, will equip fellows with the tools to establish sustainable digital literacy programs in the rural and urban communities most affected by digital inequities. NTEN provides mentors and comprehensive support to all fellows as they develop and implement a digital inclusion program tailored to their organization's and community's specific needs and contexts. The five organizations participating in the fellowship have deep roots in their communities and working on issues such as affordable housing, tech sustainability, digital access and youth engagement. "Organizations face many barriers to meeting their community's socioeconomic and civic needs. When community members don't have internet access or the skills to use it, those barriers are even higher," said Amy Sample Ward, CEO of NTEN. "We believe that the organizations best positioned to provide critical digital literacy programs are those that are already in and trusted by impacted communities. Our program is designed to build the skills, confidence and effectiveness of the fellows to deliver an innovative, sustainable digital literacy program that meets communities where they are." Project UP is Comcast’s a comprehensive initiative to advance digital equity and help build a future of unlimited possibilities. With a substantial commitment of $1 billion to reach tens of millions of people, Project UP encompasses programs and community partnerships across Comcast, NBCUniversal, and Sky to connect people to the Internet, promote economic mobility, and create opportunities for the next generation of innovators, entrepreneurs, storytellers, and creators. "Comcast is proud to partner with NTEN and the city to build on our shared commitment to digital equity through Portland's Digital Equity Service Corps," said Rodrigo Lopez, Region Senior Vice President for Comcast in the Pacific Northwest. "Together, we are pleased to support an impressive group of people passionate about bringing digital equity to communities. These individuals will ensure that more people, especially those most often left out of the digital economy, can take advantage of the opportunities that come with acquiring digital skills." About NTEN NTEN is creating a world where missions and movements are successful through the skillful and equitable use of technology. We build transformative power by connecting people who are putting technology to work for social change. We strengthen their individual and collective capacity for doing good by offering expert trainings, researching effective approaches, and providing places where relationships can flourish. We relentlessly advocate for the redesign of the systems and structures that maintain inequity. NTEN’s amazing community is made up of nonprofit staff, volunteers, board members, funders, consultants, and vendors from all walks of life. For more information, visit: https://www.nten.org/about-nten. About the City of Portland’s Digital Equity Strategic Initiatives Program The Strategic Initiatives program champions public policy and local resources and investments to ensure the benefits of communications technology are available to all in support of an equitable, sustainable, and economically healthy city. BPS’s Digital Equity Strategic Initiatives team helps ensure all have the opportunity to thrive in the digital economy by focusing on just and equitable strategies to achieve digital access and adoption for all. The Coalition of Digital Equity (CODE), of which the City of Portland and NTEN are members, is a coalition of community organizations interested in raising awareness about digital equity barriers and developing local solutions to bridge the digital divide.

Gaming Tournaments: Tapping into the growing gaming culture in regions like Nigeria and South Africa, the tournament featured TRON-based games, showcasing blockchain’s role in revolutionizing the gaming industry through digital ownership. By engaging students in discussions on owning digital assets and unlocking new opportunities in gaming through blockchain, TRON is helping to shape the future of crypto adoption within the gaming community. Importance of TRON Africa Initiatives TRON’s events in Africa play a crucial role in empowering local communities by increasing blockchain literacy. These events help people understand the fundamentals of decentralized technology, allowing them to explore new ways of improving financial inclusion and creating innovative solutions. Steven Bischoff, a TRON Community Spokesperson, said: “From the heart of Africa to every corner of the globe, TRON remains committed to building a future where blockchain technology is accessible to all.” About TRON DAO TRON DAO is a community-governed DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the internet via blockchain technology and dApps. Founded in September 2017 by Justin Sun, the TRON network has continued to deliver impressive achievements since MainNet launch in May 2018. July 2018 also marked the integration of BitTorrent, a pioneer in decentralized Web3 services, boasting over 100 million monthly active users. The TRON network has gained incredible traction in recent years. As of October 2024, it has over 267 million total user accounts on the blockchain, more than 8.7 billion total transactions, and over $16 billion in total value locked (TVL), as reported on TRONSCAN. In addition, TRON hosts the largest circulating supply of USD Tether (USDT) stablecoin across the globe, overtaking USDT on Ethereum since April 2021. The TRON network completed full decentralization in December 2021 and is now a community-governed DAO. Most recently in October 2022, TRON was designated as the national blockchain for the Commonwealth of Dominica, which marks the first time a major public blockchain partnered with a sovereign nation to develop its national blockchain infrastructure. On top of the government’s endorsement to issue Dominica Coin (“DMC”), a blockchain-based fan token to help promote Dominica’s global fanfare, seven existing TRON-based tokens – TRX, BTT, NFT, JST, USDD, USDT, TUSD, have been granted statutory status as authorized digital currency and medium of exchange in the country.
