OYO US Collaborates with Stripe to Introduce Instant Payouts for Hotels

OYO

Global travel technology company OYO announced that it has partnered with Stripe, a global financial infrastructure platform for businesses, to ease the payment experience for its customers and hotel owners in the US. The integration will provide hotel owners with a flexible and seamless solution for in-person payments with Stripe Terminal at their hotels. OYO hotels in the US will also be enabled with real-time payouts through Instant Payouts with Stripe, which will improve their cash flow. With Instant Payouts, OYO can allow hotel owners on their platform to access their balances immediately following a successful charge. Instant Payouts are available at any day or time, including weekends and holidays, and funds typically settle in the associated bank account within 30 minutes. In addition, the collaboration will equip OYO hotels in the US with a secure online payments platform for guests to make bookings. With robust fraud protection mechanisms in place to safeguard against online fraudulent activities, hotel owners will see a reduction in the overall processing charges, minimizing chargeback costs. OYO seeks to enable higher authorization rates with the Stripe integration as lower payment success rates result in customers dropping off, directly impacting revenue. The company anticipates increased success rate which will translate into faster and more efficient bookings and check-ins, allowing guests to focus on enjoying their stay without unnecessary delays. Talking about the partnership, Gautam Swaroop, CEO OYO International said, “Today’s consumers are used to lightning fast and smooth search and transaction experience. By teaming up with Stripe, we will simplify and quicken the payment process, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free experience for our customers as well as hotel partners. With Stripe, OYO will offer secure online transactions and its low-cost payment infrastructure will streamline financial operations so that we can allocate resources more efficiently, ultimately providing guests with better value and services.” Nikhil Heda, Head of Business Development, OYO USA added, “The integration with Stripe will reduce the overall transaction cost for OYO and help in better fraud detection mechanisms. Stripe's robust security measures and sophisticated algorithms will work in tandem with OYO's existing protocols to create a fortified defense against potential threats, instilling confidence and trust in every transaction.” OYO offers hotels access to a large base of regular customers through its app and website, and lists hotels on multiple Online Travel Agents (OTAs) to boost booking demand and revenue. OYO’s best-in-class Artificial Intelligence-enabled pricing software automatically drives the best booking prices across all channels, based on room type, seasonality and other factors, therefore, enabling such an increase in online revenues. OYO has started offering hotels the flexibility of not having to invest heavily in redoing the hotel to join the OYO platform, something that other budget hotel chains insist on. Therefore, the initial investment to join OYO is minimal. It has been focusing instead on standardizing service led components such as customer support and booking experience. The company helps ensure great experience for customers, with ease of search and a quick booking experience, highly competitive room prices as per market demand patterns, automated tools such as Artificial Intelligence powered chatbots to quickly resolve customer queries, loyalty programs and easy refund, if needed. Earlier this year OYO said that it is planning to add over 100 hotels in the US. The company will focus on adding more hotels in the states of Oregon, Washington, Texas, Oklahoma, Georgia and Florida. Texas continues to be the largest and fastest growing market for OYO in the US, while it also has a sizable concentration of hotels in Oregon, South and North Carolina, Florida & Georgia. The company also achieved a 48% growth in revenue from bookings on its own platform, such as the app, website, mobile web and call centers in Q4 2022 vs same period in 2021. OYO’s app saw the highest growth with a 99% surge in revenue from bookings in Q4 2022 vs same period in 2021. The company had earlier disclosed that its app is the second most downloaded travel app with over 100 million downloads globally. OYO has presence in over 35 countries globally. It owns a vacations home business in EU called OVH (OYO Vacation Homes) which operates legacy brands such as DanCenter, Belvilla & Traum-Ferienwohnungen.

Les partis politiques et la société civile s'unissent sous le nom de "NEXOS" pour plaider en faveur du changement en Guinée équatoriale

Nexos GE

7 août 2023, Madrid - D'éminentes personnalités de l'opposition et des activistes de la société civile de Guinée équatoriale ont lancé aujourd'hui NEXOS, une organisation créée pour dénoncer la violation systématique des droits de l'homme dans le pays et pour contester la négation de ces crimes par le régime du président Teodoro Obiang. NEXOS a été créée à la suite d'un séminaire organisé à Rivas Vacia-Madrid les 3 et 4 août pour évaluer la situation sociopolitique du pays à l'occasion du 44ème anniversaire de la dictature militaire d'Obiang. La plateforme NEXOS sera dirigée par Juan Carlos ONDO ANGUE, ancien président de la Cour suprême de justice de la Guinée équatoriale, et est composée du Mouvement pour l'autodétermination de l'île de Bioko (MAIB), du Mouvement pour la libération de la troisième République de Guinée équatoriale (MLGE 3R), de la Force républicaine démocratique (FDR) et de l'Association pour le développement de la Guinée équatoriale (ADGE), des partis Force républicaine démocratique (FDR) et Union pour la démocratie et le développement social (UDDS), ainsi que de personnalités renommées telles que Jesus MITOGO OYONO, député du parti Citoyens pour l'innovation (CI), l'écrivain Donato NDONGO-BIDYOGO, la défenseuse des droits LGBT Trifonia Melibea OBONO et le directeur de Radio Macuto Jose Maria OYONO ESENG. Juan Carlos ONDO ANGUE a déclaré: « Dans le contexte actuel de récession économique aggravée et de dégradation extrême des libertés politiques et sociales en Guinée équatoriale, les forces progressistes se sont réunies au sein de NEXOS pour dénoncer les violations systématiques des droits de l'homme perpétrées par le régime à l'encontre des dissidents. NEXOS luttera également contre le déni constant de ces crimes contre l'humanité par la dictature militaire au pouvoir, qui font partie d'une politique d'État menée depuis 44 ans sous le président Obiang et même pendant la dictature précédente de Macias Nguema Biyogo. « Avec des liens de plus en plus étroits avec la Chine et la Russie, le régime d'Obiang représente un risque non seulement pour l'avenir de la Guinée équatoriale, mais aussi pour la sécurité régionale et mondiale. Alors qu'Obiang cherche à perpétuer sa dictature par une succession dynastique, NEXOS, une coalition sans précédent, vise à faire prendre conscience à la communauté internationale de l'urgence d'une transition démocratique et pacifique en Guinée équatoriale ». Dans les semaines à venir, NEXOS prévoit de dévoiler ses principales priorités ainsi que les prochaines étapes sa campagne pour les droits de l'homme et la transition pacifique en Guinée équatoriale. Pour toute question, veuillez contacter: info@nexos-ge.org Informations sur la Guinée équatoriale: La Guinée équatoriale (GE) subit actuellement la dictature la plus longue et l'une des plus brutales au monde. Le président Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo a succédé à son oncle au pouvoir en 1979. Mais la santé du président étant chancelante, une transition démocratique est possible. Des rapports fondés sur les services de renseignement américains signalent que la Chine envisage d'établir dans le pays sa première présence militaire permanente dans l'océan Atlantique. La Guinée équatoriale est également l'un des pays où opère l'organisation paramilitaire Wagner Group, liée au gouvernement russe. Près de 200 soldats du groupe Wagner se trouveraient en Guinée équatoriale. La dynastie Obiang a présidé à des décennies de corruption et de violations des droits de l'homme. Son fils et actuel vice-président Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue sera le successeur probable d'Obiang. En France, une enquête de longue date sur les "biens mal acquis" a fait les gros titres de la presse. Plus de 100 objets de valeur et plusieurs biens immobiliers ont été saisis par les autorités françaises dans le cadre de leur enquête sur la corruption et les détournements de fonds. En Espagne, il a été rapporté que des membres haut placés du régime d'Obiang, y compris son fils et son vice-président, avaient prévu de tuer plusieurs dirigeants de l'opposition basés à Madrid. Des investisseurs espagnols ont également perdu des millions d'euros après avoir été escroqués et extorqués par des membres de la famille d'Obiang. Juan Carlos Ondo Angue est l'ancien président de la Cour suprême de justice de Guinée équatoriale.

Political Parties and Civil Society Unite Under “NEXOS” to Advocate for Change in Equatorial Guinea

Nexos GE

August 7, 2023, Madrid – Prominent opposition figures and civil society activists from Equatorial Guinea have today launched NEXOS, an organisation created to denounce the systematic violation of human rights in the country and to challenge the denial of these crimes by the regime of President Teodoro Obiang. NEXOS was formed following a seminar held in Rivas Vacia-Madrid on 3-4 August to assess the socio-political situation of the country on the 44 th anniversary of Obiang’s military dictatorship. The NEXOS platform will be spearheaded by prominent jurist Juan Carlos ONDO ANGUE, former President of the Supreme Court of Justice, and is composed of the Movement for the Self-Determination of the Island of Bioko (MAIB), the Movement for the Liberation of Equatorial Guinea Third Republic (MLGE 3R), the Democratic Republican Force (FDR) and the Union for Democracy and Social Development (UDDS) parties, as well as renowned public figures such as Jesus MITOGO OYONO, MP for the Citizens for Innovation (CI) party, writer Donato NDONGO-BIDYOGO, LGBT rights defender Trifonia Melibea OBONO and the director of Radio Macuto Jose Maria OYONO ESENG. On the founding of NEXOS, Juan Carlos ONDO ANGUE said: " In the current context of aggravated economic recession and the extreme degradation of political and social freedoms in Equatorial Guinea, progressive forces have united under NEXOS to denounce the regime's systematic violations of human rights perpetrated against dissidents. NEXOS will also fight the constant denial of these crimes against humanity by the ruling military dictatorship, which are part of a state policy conducted for the last 44 years under President Obiang and even during the previous dictatorship of Macias Nguema Biyogo." “With growing ties to China and Russia, Obiang’s regime poses a risk not just to the future of Equatorial Guinea, but to regional and global security. As Obiang aims to perpetuate his dictatorship through a dynastic succession, NEXOS, an unprecedented coalition, aims to make the international community aware of the urgency to bring about a democratic and peaceful transition to Equatorial Guinea.” In the coming weeks, NEXOS plans to unveil its next steps and key priorities in their campaign for human rights and a peaceful transition in Equatorial Guinea.

In France, a longstanding enquiry into ‘ill-gotten gains’ has been dominating the press. Over 100 prized objects and several real estate assets were seized by French authorities in their investigation of corruption and misappropriation of funds. In Spain, it has been reported that high-level members of Obiang’s regime, including his son and Vice-President, planned to kill various leaders of the opposition based in Madrid. Spanish investors have also lost millions of euros after being allegedly defrauded and extorted by members of Obiang’s family.

A trained lawyer, he sought to improve the rule of law and governance of Equatorial Guinea and has lived in exile in France since 2018. Contact Details Nexos Juan Carlos Ondo Angue info@nexos-ge.org

Tiziana (NASDAQ: TLSA) Continues The Fight Against Multiple Sclerosis, Will Announce 6-Month Results For Its Novel Treatment Soon

Benzinga

By David Willey, Benzinga Tiziana Life Sciences (NASDAQ: TLSA), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing immunotherapies, will soon announce the 6-month results for patients with non-active Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (na-SPMS) receiving its novel intranasal treatment, foralumab. The company is conducting an expanded access program, where patients with non active secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (Na-SPMS) received foralumab, and a Positron Emission Tomography (PET) brain scan was taken for each patient at the 3-month mark. Tiziana declared that the findings were “extraordinary,” as the trial saw reduced microglia activity in five of the six patients with na-SPMS. This result indicates reduced neuroinflammation for these five patients and the possibility of an improvement in their condition. “To see a reduction in microglial activation in 5 out of 6 na-SPMS patients in only 3 months is extraordinary. This finding is even more remarkable because all of the 6 expanded access patients’ na-SPMS had clinically regressed on ocrelizumab treatment,” said Howard L. Weiner, M.D, chairman of Tiziana's Scientific Advisory Board. He continued, “I am excited to follow this program to see if the improvement in the 3-month PET scans will translate to clinical improvement in the coming months.” Now Tiziana is approaching the 6-month mark for its patients in the program and will be publishing the results for these patients. The company will be hoping that the positive results it saw at the 3-month mark will be replicated. It also anticipates progressing clinical development for foralumab by starting a phase 2 trial in Q3 of 2023. Foralumab Could Decrease NeuroInflammation These results are expected even as a recent study linked MS to a greater risk of Alzheimer's and dementia. Tiziana is tackling MS, Alzheimer’s and other neuroinflammatory diseases with foralumab, which reduces neuroinflammation caused by microglia activated by amyloid plaque buildup. By binding to regulatory T-cells, foralumab is able to cross the blood-brain barrier, decrease microglia activation and reduce neuroinflammation. Anti-CD3 monoclonal antibodies (mAb) are a class of therapy that reduces inflammation, and foralumab is the first fully human anti-CD3 mAb, which means it has a lower incidence rate and is less likely to cause an immune response than humanized or chimeric anti-CD3 mAbs. The market has been paying particular attention to the potential of anti-CD3 mAbs since Sanofi (NASDAQ: SNY) acquired Provention Bio for almost $3 billion for Provention’s anti-CD3 mAb drug Teplizumab. Teplizumab is a humanized mAb, which suggests that there could be interest in Tiziana’s fully human mAb therapy. Read more about Tiziana’s fight against multiple sclerosis.
