Hornbill Networks Consortium: Pioneering sustainability in Malaysian real estate

Prodigy Press Wire

Discussions surrounding sustainability have heightened in recent years as the world becomes more aware of the current state of the climate and the risks accompanying it. The ripple effect extends to businesses, particularly the real estate sector, as it accounts for approximately 40% of all greenhouse gas emissions worldwide. This matter has a massive impact on not only property developers but also homeowners and tenants. With the introduction of significant legislation regarding sustainability at both international and local levels, the property industry is expected to contribute to the sustainable property agenda. However, although the propagation of the culture of sustainability has progressed in the real estate industry over the past years, many countries have yet to integrate sustainability into their property practices fully. It is worth underlining that the influence of sustainability in this landscape is so immense that the real estate industry adopted the language of sustainability, popularizing terminologies such as environmental footprint, triple bottom line, future-proofing, and carbon-neutral space. As the global paradigm has shifted toward focusing on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) and sustainability standards, Asian countries have followed suit, contributing to the integration of sustainability in their policies and investments. Malaysia, in particular, with its growing role as a rapidly expanding property market in Asia, has to remain steadfast in championing sustainability. At the forefront of this movement is Hornbill Networks Consortium Sdn Bhd, an innovative property development company based in Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia, that has delivered first-rate homes and commercial properties for discerning buyers since 2020. Despite being relatively new in the real estate construction industry, Hornbill Networks Consortium has recognized the changing consumer demand. A study on the factors determining the purchase decision of residential properties in Malaysia highlights that residents, with their growing concern about the impact of sustainable development on the environment, tend to purchase green residential areas. Hornbill Networks Consortium, with its mission to deliver sustainable quality products at affordable rates while leveraging innovative technologies, positions itself as a leader in the movement toward sustainability in Malaysia. This commitment to connecting green to innovation illustrates the company's worth as the recipient of the Entrepreneurship and Startup Award at the Sarawak Digital Economy Awards 2023. Hanizam Hashim, the founder, CEO, and managing director of Hornbill Networks Consortium, shared, "We've seen that the market, especially within the construction industry for building homes, has not displayed significant changes over the years. As a new entrant, we naturally found ourselves in a niche that allows us to contribute to the global efforts in combating climate change. With this, we hope to set an example to other companies to strive for a greener future.” The visionary leader was honored with the title of The Most Outstanding CEO in Malaysia 100 Top CEO Awards 2022 for leading the company in employing an innovative approach to reshaping affordable housing with a focus on sustainability and environmental consciousness. In line with Hornbill Networks Consortium's efforts toward sustainability, the company is installing solar panels in the homes they build and implementing rainwater harvesting systems. In addition, it uses a special chemical additive to improve soil quality and reduce the need for excessive granite or stones. The company also aims to incorporate recycled plastic materials into its building processes next year to replace traditional timber with eco-friendly alternatives. "Aside from these sustainability efforts, we also empower homeowners to foster a greener, self-sufficient lifestyle by cultivating their own vegetable gardens," the CEO added. The promising real estate player aims to focus on the underserved M40 segment in Kuching from 2020 to 2025. Its current venture, the Residensi Kuching project, caters to both the B40 and M40 populations. Samariang Avenue, the company's other ongoing project, consists of two units of Single Storey Semi Detach, 28 units of Double Storey Terrace, and 60 units of Single Storey Terrace. Samariang Avenue Phase 2 is set to launch in December 2023, offering 28 units of Double Storey Terrace houses. When asked about the company's vision for the future, the forward-looking founder remarked, "We are foreseeing challenges in sourcing materials because of global supply chain disruptions, especially due to socio-political conflicts happening in several parts of the world. So, we plan to focus on local alternatives to mitigate risks and also minimize costs. We believe that by doing this, we can strategically ensure we could offer affordable homes while reducing our carbon footprint." Hornbill Networks Consortium also plans to tap into opportunities such as green bonds and sustainability-linked loans to not only boost its eco-friendly initiatives but also offer customers additional financial benefits. Ultimately, the future is bright for Hornbill Networks Consortium as it shows dedication in spearheading innovation and sustainability efforts in Malaysia by anticipating future challenges and opening itself to the shifting trends in the real estate sector.

Kadimastem and iTolerance Submit Initial Targeted Engagement for Regulatory Advice on CBER Products (INTERACT) Meeting Request with FDA for Potential Cure for Type 1 Diabetes

Kadimastem Ltd.

Kadimastem Ltd. (TASE:KDST), a clinical cell therapy company developing a cell therapy treatment for ALS and a potential cure for diabetes and its diabetic product development partner, the American company iTolerance Inc., have asked the FDA for a preliminary meeting (INTERACT) regarding the companies’ joint diabetes treatment in development, iTOL-102, which does not require continuous suppression of the immune system. The companies signed a collaboration agreement several months ago to co-develop cell technology as a potential cure for diabetes without the need for chronic immunosuppression and received a total grant of about US$1 million from the international BIRD fund. This is the first of a three-step process, with the goal of designing and commencing an FDA-approved clinical study of iTOL-102. The second step would be to submit a pre-IND application based on the feedback from the INTERACT meeting, followed by an IND application to begin clinical trials at locations worldwide. In May 2023, the companies announced their research collaboration agreement to co-develop and commercialize a breakthrough and innovative regenerative technology to cure diabetes without the need for chronic immunosuppression and received a grant in the aggregate amount of US$1m (with a budget of about US$2 million) from the Binational Israel-U.S. Industrial R&D (BIRD) Foundation. As part of the agreement, the companies are considering expanding their cooperation and advancing the development of iTOL-102 which combines Kadimastem’s advanced cell product for the treatment of diabetes called IsletRx, and iTolerance’s iTOL-100 immunomodulatory technology. The purpose of the meeting would be to present the iTOL-102 development program and specifically discuss the chemistry, manufacturing and control (CMC) program, the definitive proof of concept study design in light of preliminary data, and general plans for non-clinical safety and clinical development. The parties intend to continue the development of the product and are even considering expanding the cooperation, for the benefit of product development, including through the establishment of a joint company in the United States. IsletRx is comprised of clinical-grade clusters of human pancreatic islet like cells (ILCs) with the ability to secrete insulin. IsletRx cells can detect the sugar levels in the body and produce the required amounts of insulin and glucagon, iTolerance will provide its platform technology (iTOL-100) intended to enable the transplantation of allogeneic cells without tissue matching and without the need for chronic treatments that suppress the immune system of the transplant recipient (immunosuppression). Kadimastem Chief Executive Officer Asaf Shiloni added, “The INTERACT meeting is an important step forward for this development program. We are dedicated to advancing this program and providing diabetic patients with a potential solution to live without the need for insulin injections.” Dr. Anthony Japour, Chief Executive Officer of iTolerance, commented, “We are pleased with the continued progress of our research collaboration with Kadimastem and look forward to meeting with the FDA. We believe that this collaboration has the potential to provide a much-needed, innovative cure for patients with Type 1 Diabetes and look forward to building on our continued momentum.” At Kadimastem we envision being a global leader in cell therapy.Our passion and commitment keep us moving forward, to develop innovative regenerative therapies for incurable diseases. Our goal is to treat millions of patients around the world with that technology. This document may include forward-looking information as defined in the Securities Law, 5728 – 1968.

Risk Ledger secures £6.25m to prevent cyber attacks on the supply chains of nation’s largest enterprises

Risk Ledger

Organisations have been laser focussed on protecting their own networks, applications, physical premises and people against cyber security attacks but have neglected their exposure to suppliers. Indeed, over the past 3 years, a staggering 73% of organisations have been affected by a third-party security breach. Helping these businesses toughen their resilience against such attacks, cyber security business Risk Ledger is today announcing it has raised a £6.25 million series A funding round to strengthen supply chains. The funding round was led by UK investor Mercia Ventures, which joins Seedcamp, Firstminute Capital, Episode 1, Village Global as well as Finnish VC Lifeline Ventures as investors. To date, Risk Ledger has raised a total of £9.8 million in venture funding. Recent cyber attacks on The Metropolitan Police and NHS Trusts through their supply chains have the potential to compromise the UK’s national security and private citizen data. A threat alert by the National Cyber Security Centre is also warning of increased state-sponsored attacks against UK critical national infrastructure. Supply chain attacks are on the rise, and can have severe impacts, as the Solarwinds, Log4J, and MOVEit Transfer attacks have shown. According to recent research by KPMG, 73% of the surveyed organisations had experienced at least one significant disruption, caused by a third party, within the last three years, while 85% said that their business considers third party risk management (TPRM) a strategic priority. The cost of global supply chain attacks is expected to reach $46 billion this year (Juniper Research). Organisations are increasingly trusting others with critical business functions and sensitive data, meaning vulnerabilities can appear anywhere in the supply chain, from suppliers to partners. Traditional, point in time cyber security risk assessments make for poor quality data that goes out of date fast, offering little protection. Risk Ledger offers an innovative social network approach to supply chain risk management, allowing organisations to use the platform as both clients and suppliers, able to share with connected organisations a single profile of their controls across 12 security domains, including ESG and financial risk. This reveals relationships in many directions and allows for a unique visualisation of the entire supply chain ecosystem, and the uncovering of critical interdependencies, concentration risks and single points of failure well beyond immediate third party connections. It also results in more accurate and real time data, giving organisations the ability to make better decisions to protect their business from supply chain threats. Haydn Brooks, co-founder and CEO, at Risk Ledger commented: “The unique ability of Risk Ledger to map relationships and interdependencies in the supply chain allows organisations to understand where they sit within their own supplier ecosystem and how different incidents may impact their organisation given those interdependencies.” Risk Ledger has seen rapid adoption over the past two years and today counts over 5,000 organisations with 17,000 users across large public sector and financial services organisations as customers. Client bookings have consistently doubled year on year, or more, since the company launched its platform in 2020. Risk Ledger's growing international client base includes many organisations in sensitive sectors such as critical national infrastructure, financial services and the public sector, which face particular regulatory scrutiny and need to demonstrate how they effectively limit the risks emanating from their suppliers. Speaking about the value Risk Ledger provides, the former Divisional Information Security Officer at the UK Health Security Agency, David Malkin, stated that “Risk Ledger provides us with a more holistic, real time view of our complex supply chain, helping to identify and remediate potential vulnerabilities and issues early.” The new funding will fuel future product development to equip Risk Ledger’s clients with tools to combat supply chain security attacks and allow Risk Ledger to deepen partnerships within key industries. Mercia Ventures invested from its Northern Venture Capital Trust (VCT) funds. Adam Lovell of Mercia Ventures added: “Third-party risk is a major security concern for companies as it’s a factor over which they traditionally have little control. Risk Ledger offers an exciting new approach to third-party risk management. Haydn and Daniel have made remarkable progress in developing the business to date and have a very clear view of the way forward. We are delighted to support their ambitious growth plans.” Risk Ledger’s mission is to build a global network of connected organisations all working together to defend-as-one, detecting, responding, and ultimately preventing cyber attacks in real-time. Risk Ledger aims to enhance security through collaboration and the exchange of information. Haydn Brooks added: “As we push forwards towards our vision, our platform will open up new capabilities within supply chain security. Integrations and future product releases will allow organisations to both understand and react to security incidents in their supply chain, reducing the impact of such incidents and ultimately leading to a more resilient world.” About Risk Ledger Risk Ledger, the winner of the Financial Times’ Tech Champion 2022 Award, is a collaborative platform for supplier due diligence that helps organisations identify, visualise, and mitigate supply chain security risk. The Risk Ledger network connects organisations together to defend-as-one, detecting, responding, and ultimately preventing cyber attacks in real-time. Haydn Brooks and Daniel Saul, the Co-Founders of Risk Ledger, were named on the Forbes 30 under 30 Europe list of business leaders to watch.

The Evolution of Live Dealer Games: A Game-Changer for Online Casinos

Acroud Media

Online casinos have been about since the 1990s; however, back in the day, high-street casinos were the places to be if you wanted a great gambling experience. The ambience and excitement, coupled with real live play, was a great adrenalin thrill. Over the last three decades, things have shifted in the digital gaming world; migrating to the digital world has been an absolute game-changer for the gambling industry. Not only were people playing their favourite games online, but live dealer games were becoming increasingly popular with punters. Once more, the operators realised the potential for social interaction, and that human touch can be easily accessible online. With the advancement of technology, mobile accessibility and the willingness of punters to play online, the online gambling industry knew they were on a winner. If you want to read more, check out our dedicated page for the best live casinos in Canada. The Genesis of Live Dealer Gaming Though online casinos have been going on since the early 1990s, it wasn’t until the early 2000s that the operators had to change their approach to online gambling and introduce live dealer games; this concept was the eureka moment that revolutionised how punters played online games. Not only were they close to the action as in natural surroundings and alongside real dealers, the experience felt palpable. In a way, this revolution of live dealers and croupiers saved many online casinos' reputations and their code of conduct. Many casinos rely heavily on RNGs (Random Number Generators), which caused a lot of scepticism from punters and heavy bettors. The impartiality of the gaming industry often came into question. Using actual, physical equipment like card tables, roulette equipment and live dealers and not robots has made the online gambling experience as authentic as possible. Immersive Casino Experience The advancement of technology in online casinos paved the way for live dealers and live games to be as authentic and natural as possible for punters and customers alike. Having that connection with human contact during play was one of the significant factors that led online casinos to rise to meteoric eminence. Like all human interaction, there is no more incredible feeling of togetherness and community, especially when players can talk to each other and with the dealer in real-time and even tip the dealer. With the live dealer and croupier experience, all games like blackjack, roulette, baccarat and poker have improved tenfold due to the genuine casino atmosphere they conjure up. Players who love the interaction of human connection will also find their play a much more pleasurable experience, knowing that they are not talking to a robot. A Diverse Selection of Games In the modern day of online casinos and games, players will find all variants of live dealer games to suit their needs. The selection is endless, and in some cases, many reputable casinos have literally hundreds of games to choose from; poker, craps, and baccarat are just a few of the classics punters thrive too. Moreover, human dealer versions of titles like Dream Catcher, Monopoly Live, Deal, or No Deal have not surprisingly become more popular due to their uniqueness of randomness and quirky stage entertainment and fun. These games are all provided by top casino software developers, such as Evolution Gaming. To find out more about this great provider, check out our review. Fairness and Transparency Live dealer games have the distinct advantages and benefits of being genuine and honest. To rely on random number generator games where authenticity and integrity could be questioned and, of course, the players must take the house word for its questionable fairness. With the live dealer games, there is so much more openness, clarity and transparency; this gives the players every confidence to play and enjoy the fun. Once more, regular audits are carried out by authorised gaming authorities, namely by the UKGC (United Kingdom Gambling Commission), to guarantee their fairness and integrity. Additionally, using multiple cameras, real cards, wheels, etc, erases the chances of any underhandness. Advancements in Technology If we compare this technology to live dealer success in the online world of gambling, we can understand why the online gambling industry has become a phenomenon. The compatibility of mobile phones has enhanced the drive to an incredible degree of connection and interaction, coupled with the high-speed internet and readily accessible; what a time to be an avid gamer today! With all these fantastic tools at hand, we still haven’t mentioned augmented reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR). With VR headsets, players can actually enter a virtual casino, interact with players and croupiers and be part of a realistic 3D environment. Conclusion The migration of live dealer games into online Casinos has been a meteoric game-changer and has changed the face of online casinos forever. The very fact is that all the games on an online casino can be preservable with advanced technology. The live dealer games will become more authentic and palpable as technology advances. It can be argued that the high street casino may even fade out once the introduction of virtual reality, augmented reality and, of course, the development of streaming technology will catapult live dealer gaming to new unrecognisable heights.
