Mahila Money and Visa Team Up to Support Women Entrepreneurs with Mahila Money Prepaid Card

Mahila Money

Mahila Money, Visa and Transcorp have teamed up to launch the Mahila Money Prepaid Card, a product created for women entrepreneurs to use digital payments more effectively. The partnership leverages the deep expertise of Visa, the global leader in payments, Transcorp PPI, and the highly engaged community of Mahila Money. The Mahila Money Prepaid Card, in partnership with Visa, is designed with the needs of digital entrepreneurs, small business owners and women in mind. The card bridges the gap for community members who want the convenience of a bank account with added flexibility, safety and convenience. This collaboration will pave the way to economic freedom and financial inclusion for millions of women entrepreneurs. “India is witnessing unprecedented adoption of digital financial products and mainstreaming of entrepreneurship,” Mahila Money Founder Sairee Chahal said. “As an organization committed to helping women succeed and build their financial and social capital, the Mahila Money Prepaid Card is a small but big step in the right direction. We need to design products that are simple, effective and trusted, as many women use the internet and payments to achieve their financial aspirations. We believe that this partnership with Visa offers us the opportunity to create highly customized products for women entrepreneurs, a highly engaged and fast-growing segment of digital and financial services users.” “At Visa, we believe it is our mission to work with our partners to uplift everyone–especially in India. We have a long history of supporting women entrepreneurs, a fast-growing yet underserved segment, whether through the iFundWomen and Visa grants program or coaching women micro-entrepreneurs across India on digital payments,” said Vice President and Head of Business Development at Visa India Sujai Raina. “We are thus proud to partner with Mahila Money in the company’s incredible journey to support women entrepreneurs with the Mahila Money Visa Prepaid Card–a customized offering that will empower female small business owners to embed secure, digital payments and take their enterprises to new heights.” According to the latest survey by the All-India Debt and Investment Survey (AIDIS), although 80.7% of women in rural areas and 81% in urban areas have bank accounts, research indicates that 55% of women still don’t actively use their bank accounts. YouGov’s latest survey revealed that close to two-thirds of urban Indian women used digital modes of payments, but less than one-third leveraged internet banking. “We are honored to power Mahila Money, which harnesses the potential of two of India’s most promising elements: women and fintech,” said Head of PPI Division at Transcorp Ayan Agarwal. “As India’s premier non-bank card issuer, Transcorp takes pride in enabling financial independence for Indian women, and continuously strives to deliver success to its fintech partners through the optimization of stakeholder alignment.” With easy and hassle-free access to loans already available to women entrepreneurs in India through Mahila Money, the prepaid card product will augment that experience, as it aims to catalyze financial adoption for an underserved segment. Salient features and benefits of the Mahila Money Prepaid Card: The card makes it easy for women entrepreneurs to collect payments digitally for their businesses and helps boost their working capital, as loans can be transferred directly into the card. Users are offered incentives, rewards, and cashback from the Mahila Money ecosystem of partners. The card is useful for women who may not operate their bank accounts actively but want to transact digitally for their businesses and expenses. First-time digital entrepreneurs, who are wary of using their bank accounts to set up online storefronts or collect payments will find the use of the card very easy. A fully digital product, the Mahila Money Prepaid Card is hassle-free, secure and protects user privacy, especially for women who are seeking independent use of financial products for their business. A physical copy of the card is also available upon request, in addition to the digital card that will be available by default. Transcorp, a 27-year-old Reserve Bank of India regulated PPI license holder, is powering the cards as India’s first non-bank co-brand offering on the Visa network. Launched six months ago as a full-stack financial services platform for women, Mahila Money has witnessed growth of over 250 times since its introduction, as women in the community continue to adopt products and services designed exclusively for Indian women. Mahila Money offers loans to women entrepreneurs building their businesses and products that meet working capital needs and productive loans for employment, entrepreneurship and growth opportunities. The Mahila Money community is an actively engaged platform for women built to support financial literacy and entrepreneurship, and provide resources to women to succeed in life.

Akeneo Announces Launch of App Store at Annual PXM Summit

Akeneo

Akeneo, the global leader in product experience management (PXM), announced at their annual conference, Unlock 2022, the launch of the Akeneo App Store as a part of the new product features and benefits debuting in its Spring 2022 Release. As a part of this latest collection of SaaS updates, the company also announced new capabilities and enhancements to Akeneo PXM Studio, including a sneak preview of a powerful new Tailored Imports feature, improvements to its Shared Catalogs and Onboarder products, and the launch of its latest Community Edition and managed services version. Akeneo App Store for Speed of Customizing Akeneo PIM The Akeneo App Store launches with new apps covering a wide range of categories including syndication, e-commerce, data enrichment, and product catalog publishing. Technology solutions such as BigCommerce, ChannelEngine, InBetween, priint, Productsup, Tradebyte by Eikona, and Unifai are among the first to launch their apps on the Akeneo App Store. The Akeneo App Store will make it easier than ever for Akeneo PIM customers to leverage valuable product data across a vast ecosystem of commerce technologies. Through the Akeneo App Store, customers can search and activate relevant certified apps, install apps with one click, configure them simply without IT support, and manage those integrations, all right from within Akeneo PIM. Akeneo has already seen great success with its vast ecosystem that offers over 130 extensions and connectors developed by Akeneo and its partners for its open source-based and hosted solutions. The all-new Akeneo App Store has replaced the Akeneo Marketplace for Growth and Enterprise Edition customers. Akeneo’s partners will benefit from reaching a larger audience of PIM customers faster than before and are therefore able to realize a better return on their integration investments while empowering developers through access to training, support, documentation, and certification by Akeneo. Jorrit Steinz, CEO of ChannelEngine, said, “In November 2019, we partnered with Akeneo to pursue an important joint mission: to create a single, centralized source of truth that is capable of aggregating, standardizing, enriching, localizing, and managing product content for experience-optimized syndication. We are proud to be an early adopter of the Akeneo App Store and look forward to further extending the capabilities of Akeneo’s PIM by syndicating the best-in-class product information from Akeneo’s PIM to all of the world’s most powerful marketplaces.” Tailored Imports for Ease of Incorporating Data from Flat files Concurrently Akeneo is providing a sneak preview of Tailored Imports which allows users to take files of any structure and easily map the data provided to their Akeneo PIM catalog. Tailored Imports removes the time often spent on manipulating files by ensuring that the types, format, and quality of data provided to Akeneo PIM is streamlined and consistent. The feature’s intuitive technology also allows users to create and save formats so that after they upload a file once it will work for that type of file each time. Akeneo Shared Catalogs & Onboarder updates for Enhanced Collaboration Akeneo’s Spring 2022 Release also brings key updates to its data collaboration solutions, Akeneo Shared Catalogs and Akeneo Onboarder. With branded PDF exports, support for additional languages, and an improved catalog grid and management experience, Shared Catalogs removes the friction when it comes to sharing accurate product information with external and internal stakeholders who don’t require access directly to the PIM. Akeneo Onboarder users can now collaborate easier than ever before with their suppliers with the release of in-app notifications, commenting, product statuses, and more. V6 for Customers on Annual Release offerings like Community Edition or Managed Services Finally, the company is releasing the latest version of its open-source and managed services PIM offering, Akeneo PIM V6, which will be accessible to all customers that do not currently use Akeneo’s Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) product. The latest version encompasses more than 75 features released in 2021 including Table Attributes, Tailored Exports, and more. Akeneo’s SaaS customers benefited immediately from these new features as they were made available throughout the year “With our Spring 2022 Release, in addition to the more than 75 releases Akeneo delivered in 2021, we are demonstrating our commitment to investing in key strategic areas across our product line,” said Nicolas Dupont, CPO of Akeneo. “From product data collection, to enrichment and distribution capabilities, Akeneo is setting a benchmark for how to empower customers and partners with a solution for PXM that constantly innovates and delivers real business impact at virtually any scale.” Akeneo will be showcasing these updates at Unlock 2022, the annual global summit for the PIM and PXM community taking place from March 15-16 in Paris, with demonstrations of the latest features and capabilities from Akeneo’s product team.

Take Action for Heart Health

YourUpdateTV

Heart disease is responsible for over 600,000 deaths in the U.S. each year making it the leading (non-pandemic) cause of death in the U.S. Heart disease includes a number of different conditions that relate to your heart’s rhythm, muscle, and blood vessels. Luckily there are things we can all do to lower our risk for, or even prevent heart disease. Learning about what your genetics can tell you about your heart can be a good first step. Recently, Senior Product Scientist at 23andMe, Alisa Lehman, and Chief Clinical Officer at Lemonaid Health, Dr. Davis Liu, MD, participated in a nationwide satellite media tour to discuss how genetics can help people take a proactive approach to their health. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/213m-kngFRI When we look at the human genome, everyone is very similar. However, there are places in our DNA that are different from person to person, which are called genetic variants. Some of these variants are associated with certain health conditions. At 23andMe, scientists look at the variants you may have and can tell you if you may be genetically predisposed to developing conditions like type 2 diabetes, or migraine, or conditions related to heart disease. When it comes to heart disease, 23andMe’s personalized genetic reports can currently tell you if you're at an increased likelihood of developing conditions that affect your heart health, like high blood pressure, coronary artery disease, or high cholesterol. While genetics can give you a lot of insights about your likelihood of developing heart disease, there are many other factors that impact whether you actually go on to develop heart disease, and many of these factors are under your control, like your diet or exercise habits. Consult with your healthcare professional if you are concerned about your likelihood of developing heart disease, or if you have a personal or family history of heart disease. For more information, visit 23andMe.com About Alisa Lehman: Alisa is a Senior Product Scientist and has been working at 23andMe since 2015. Her team works to create scientifically accurate, consumer friendly genetic health features. Alisa holds a B.S. in Biology from MIT and a Ph.D. in Biological Sciences from Stanford University. About Davis Liu: Davis Liu, MD, is a board certified family doctor and Chief Clinical Officer at Lemonaid Health. Previously he worked at Kaiser Permanente in Roseville California for 15 years and lives in the Sacramento area with his wife and two teenagers. As the only doctor in his family, Dr. Liu feels compelled to make sure all Americans get the right health information to stay healthy and well.

4D Path, PathPresenter Announce Partnership to Advance AI-enabled Digital Pathology for End-to-End Breast Tumor Profiling

4D Path

PathPresenter, a pioneer in the development of digital pathology software, and 4D Path Inc., developer of a pan-cancer diagnostic and precision oncology platform enabling AI-based biomarker typing and prognostication from H&E images, are announcing today a global partnership to distribute 4D Q-plasia OncoReader Breast within PathPresenter’s new Clinical Workflow Platform, ClinPx. 4D Q-plasia OncoReader Breast provides histopathologists with an adjunct technology to potentially improve diagnostic accuracy of breast cancer features (e.g., its invasiveness, grades, ki-67 status, etc.) solely from digitized histopathology images obtained via biopsies or resections. Through this partnership, pathologists will have the ability to run the 4D Q-Plasia OncoReader Breast directly within the ClinPx whole slide image viewer. Embedding this AI technology within PathPresenter’s emerging ClinPx platform – a scanner-agnostic digital pathology workflow solution – could accelerate the adoption of AI tools within clinical workflows. “We believe that the integration of these two technologies will redefine how AI can be adopted by everyday pathologists,” said Rajendra Singh, M.D., Founder of PathPresenter. The primary purpose of integrating 4D’s proprietary algorithms within the ClinPx platform is to potentially improve the throughput, reliability, and quality of consultations provided by physicians. Additionally, users from pharmaceutical organizations could also benefit from the enablement of the standardized central pathology review of certain biomarkers within the context of clinical trials leveraging the ClinPx platform. “This unique partnership is very much needed to make the most of the increasing investment in digital pathology,” said Tathagata Dasgupta, Founder and President of 4D Path. “While PathPresenter offers a software platform made by pathologists to serve pathologists in their digital workflow, it will have at its heart the 4D Path-driven end-to-end tumor profiling white-box solution that can produce synoptic reports to potentially assist clinical reporting.” To advance the adoption of digital pathology worldwide, 4D Path and PathPresenter have created exclusive educational content to teach current and future pathologists about how evaluation of breast cancer features prior to downstream genomic and molecular testing can potentially improve patient care. This information will be available to PathPresenter’s 40,000 global users at PathPresenter.net. *4D Q-plasia OncoReader Breast has not been approved by the FDA or the EMA for primary diagnosis. 4D Q-plasia OncoReader Breast is for Research Use Only (RUO) About PathPresenter PathPresenter has been a pioneer in the development of digital pathology software since 2017. Originally known for its education platform, PathPresenter has evolved into a suite of interconnected digital pathology products that enable the use of digital pathology images for clinical care, medical education, and research. With over 40,000 registered users adopting its technologies around the world, PathPresenter enables a global clinical and data network for AI-driven precision medicine to define a new standard of care. Visit https://pathpresenter.net/ to learn more. About 4D Path 4D Path’s mission is to democratize precision diagnostics and oncology by unveiling previously hidden information purely from cellular snapshots of tissue ( e.g., histology) or liquid ( e.g., cytology) without the use of antibody stains. The company’s cloud-based 4D Q-Plasia OncoReader (QPOR) is a U.S. patented pan-cancer precision diagnostic and oncology platform which is being designed to extract diagnostic data from routine cytology and histology images. Its beachhead product, the 4D QPOR Breast, has been awarded FDA Breakthrough Device Designation for potentially improving diagnostic accuracy over the current standard of care. This end-to-end solution provides an adjunct tool, which aims to accelerate diagnostic turnaround times, reduce cost, and improve diagnostic accuracy in a single step. In addition, this technology is being designed to identify an overall biologic cancer signature to guide therapeutic management from as early as pre-treatment biopsy/resection specimens. This single test will not require the multiple additive signatures that multi-omics platforms depend upon, with their additional burdens of cost, diagnostic delay, and reliance on specialized equipment. This approach toward tumor profiling could lead to the 4D QPOR becoming an efficient and universally accessible platform to better predict and stratify patient response to therapy. The platform can integrate seamlessly into any existing clinical workflow without altering current practices. Visit https://4dpath.com to learn more.

Comcast Offering Free and Discounted Internet Through Affordable Connectivity Program

Comcast Twin Cities

Comcast in the Twin Cities is offering free and discounted Internet options through the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP). The ACP provides eligible low-income households a credit up to $30 a month toward the cost of Internet service ($75 per month for households on qualifying Tribal lands). Customers who qualify can apply ACP credits to any tier of Xfinity Internet, including Internet Essentials. “As the world becomes more digital, it is crucial that everyone has the needed resources and opportunities to excel in today’s environment,” said Kalyn Hove, Regional Senior Vice President, Comcast Twin Cities. “The Affordable Connectivity Program is a once in a lifetime opportunity that Comcast is proud to be participating in and offer to any of our customers who qualify so they can benefit from the connectivity needed to function in today’s world.” Comcast recently introduced two new ways for customers to benefit from the ACP: Internet Essentials Plus Internet Essentials Plus is a new tier of service for Comcast’s hallmark digital equity program that is available in all Comcast service areas to any customer who qualifies. It offers twice the download speed – up to 100 Mbps – of the traditional Internet Essentials service, which has a 50 Mbps download speed. Internet Essentials Plus is available for $29.95/month to new customers who qualify. Existing Internet Essentials customers can upgrade to this new, faster tier at any time. Customers who subscribe to Internet Essentials Plus and enroll in ACP will effectively get broadband for free after the $30/month government discount is applied. Xfinity Mobile Comcast’s top-rated Xfinity Mobile service, which includes 5G, is now available to customers enrolled in ACP, giving them the ability to save money on their connectivity needs inside and out of the home. Internet Essentials customers can use their $30/month ACP discount to pay for both Xfinity Internet and Xfinity Mobile service. For example, an Internet Essentials customer (paying $9.95/month) can add one line of Unlimited on Xfinity Mobile ($45/month) for $24.95/month after applying the ACP discount. Xfinity Mobile has no line access or activation fees and comes with unlimited talk and text, so customers only pay for cellular data. Customers can mix and match between two straightforward plans on Xfinity Mobile with 5G included, Unlimited or By the Gig, and pair these mobile plans with any tier of Internet service to provide ultimate flexibility. They can also switch back and forth between Unlimited and By the Gig mobile plans at any time. In addition, Xfinity Mobile devices automatically connect to millions of Xfinity WiFi hotspots across the country to reduce customers’ dependence on cellular and save money. Sign up for ACP Eligible households that enroll in the program can receive $30/month toward their Internet and mobile service ($75/month on Tribal lands). New and existing Xfinity Internet or Internet Essentials customers can visit www.xfinity.com/acp or call 844-389-4681 for more information, to determine eligibility, and sign up. Today’s announcement is part of Project UP, Comcast’s $1 billion commitment to reach tens of millions of people over the next 10 years with the tools, resources, and skills needed to succeed in a digital world.

It has a comprehensive design that addresses each of the three major barriers to broadband adoption. This includes multiple options to access free digital literacy training in print, online, and in person; the option to purchase a heavily subsidized, low-cost Internet-ready computer; and low-cost, high-speed Internet service for $9.95 a month, plus tax. The program is structured as a partnership between Comcast and tens of thousands of school districts, libraries, elected officials and nonprofit community partners.
