YAADBridge Entertainment's Pioneering Role in Transforming the Caribbean Media Landscape

Prodigy Press Wire

YAADBridge Entertainment, a Jamaica-based film, television, and audio production company, seeks partnerships and investments to further its mission of building regional, international, diverse, and generational entertainment. Driven by its aspiration to create and market authentic Caribbean content to a global audience, YAADBridge Entertainment fosters collaboration between Caribbean people at home and the broader diaspora through top-quality multimedia production. Aside from full-service audio-visual production, the rising company provides diverse offerings, from creative consulting and talent management to digital content creation and photography. With its steadfast mission and all-encompassing services, YAADBridge Entertainment is gearing up to become the most sought-after production company for film and media production across the Caribbean. The establishment of the innovative company stems from the experiences of its founder, Sherando Ferril. While working as a lecturer at the New York Film Academy, where she also obtained her master's degree in Film and Media Production, Sherando realized the need for Caribbean stories to be told from the perspective of the Caribbean people themselves. The international award-winning voice, stage, and film actress emphasized, "There's a severe lack of authenticity in the industry—seeing Hollywood not use Jamaican actors to portray Jamaican and Caribbean experience. I realized that we depend on a system to tell our stories that do not live our experiences. Essentially, I want the Caribbean people who have lived these stories to be able to share them through YAADBridge Entertainment. We're not just selling film and TV. We're selling culture." Acknowledging the immense yearning for the appreciation of Jamaican culture, whether through music, food, or athletics, Sherando intends to address it through the services of the forward-looking production company. Upon its founding in February 2019, YAADBridge Entertainment had a remarkable start providing services focused on creative production, audio-visual entertainment, and talent development and management. Despite being slightly deterred from its roadmap due to the impact brought by the COVID-19 pandemic, the company calibrated and resumed creating multimedia content. One of the company’s recent ventures includes the Caribbean Casting Network, a project that aims to provide Caribbean talents and creators the platform to showcase their works. It intends to revolutionize the casting process in the region by opening doors for producers and actors, penetrating various niches, from film and TV show actors to theater performers and commercial actors. YAADBridge Entertainment is also about to launch its highly anticipated project, The Jamaican Bodyguard. The film revolves around Jamaican politics and society, where the line between light and dark, depravity and justice, is often blurred. This venture is another testament to the production company's dedication to telling Caribbean stories from a Caribbean perspective. To solidify its position as a household name for championing regional and international entertainment in the Caribbean and beyond, YAADBridge Entertainment is actively seeking collaborative partnerships and investments. This action is part of its efforts to expand its professional team and build the needed infrastructure for its multimedia production services. Ultimately, YAADBridge Entertainment is set to redefine the entertainment industry in the Caribbean. With the vision and guidance of its founder, Sherando Ferril, the production company continuously fulfills its mission of empowering creative professionals in the region and showcasing their exceptional work to global audiences.

David vs. Goliath: How Established Corporations Threaten Small Innovators' Protections

Pathos Communications

British innovator James Dyson once said, "If you didn't have patents, no one would bother to spend money on research and development." The problem lies when established corporations prey on the inventions of smaller firms and sole entrepreneurs, stealing trade secrets before the latter can protect their innovations and intellectual property. Powerful corporations have used this "efficient infringement" strategy, threatening inventors who develop exceptional products or services with concrete market value. Such is the case with the ongoing trial of Better Life Technologies Group, Inc. (BLTG), a small African-American technology company, against an American integrated managed care consortium. BTLG is an innovative company whose ethos centers on employing out-of-the-box solutions that address persisting challenges in the wireless wearable technology industry. One of its missions is to improve accessibility to life-saving technologies by lowering costs, all while promoting sustainability within the broader technological landscape. The Better Life Technologies Group alleges that the healthcare giant unlawfully appropriated its trade secrets related to wearable medical devices. In federal court, the latter was accused of breaching a nondisclosure agreement signed in 2012 about "a patent for technology for a wireless wearable device designed for patients suffering from diabetes, heart conditions, and other medical conditions requiring monitoring" and establishing business ties with BTLG's competitors to develop wearable medical devices, generating income in the process. By doing so, the healthcare provider and insurer potentially and unethically contributed to the growth of the industry, which is now valued in the billion-dollar range. It is worth noting that BLTG's patented technology (US 8,659,432 B2) covers human monitoring in aquatic environments and patient monitoring applications in healthcare settings and homes. George McKinney, the president and CEO of BTLG, remarked, "Our representatives initiated discussions with the healthcare provider's C-level officers between 2011 and 2012. We had multiple meetings about our physician-to-patient wireless-wearable communication technologies. The other party signed a non-compete, non-disclosure agreement with us through our sister company, ViQUAL Medical. We already had prototypes at that time but were looking for funding to bring them to the market." Hoping that its collaboration with the medical industry giant would facilitate the successful launch of its technology and devices, McKinney and its representatives put their trust in the latter. The story of Robert Eisenman, the founder of Global Life-Line, Inc., is embedded within BTLG's narrative as he was victimized by the disregard for innovators’ rights. Eisenman's invention, initially known as Safekey, was created after his life-altering injury as a national-level ski racer. His journey to recovery brought the conceptualization of a safety solution, which evolved into a groundbreaking concept incorporated by major automotive players. Unfortunately, external forces like economic downturns and corporate restructuring presented setbacks. Undeterred by the challenges, Eisenman adapted his invention into Safe Card. A turning point in his narrative occurred when one of Eisenman's engineers, after years of unexplained absence, resurfaced amid a legal deposition and admitted his unauthorized use of Eisenman's intellectual property. This revelation not only exposes corporate misdeeds but also highlights the challenges faced by inventors when collaborators betray trust. Studies show that firms standing at a crossroads between disclosing trade secrets and acquiring temporary monopoly for marketing their inventions opens the discussion surrounding choosing between patenting and secrecy, which is influenced by various factors, such as the nature of innovation, the ease of imitation, and competitor strategies. Ultimately, Eisenman and McKinney's legal battles underscore the hurdles faced by inventors in safeguarding their creations from corporate giants. The resolution of this case may shape future conversations around intellectual property, legal accountability, and the power dynamics inherent in the industry. Following this, it is significant to highlight that the primary objective of most healthcare services and technology companies is to help individuals receive the support and care they need. Witnessing technical innovation becoming integral to healthcare services, innovative technology companies make it their mission to bridge these gaps. McKinney and Eisenman, two visionaries in the medical and technological industry, emphasize the immense significance of advancing technologies to help people become better caretakers of those who need them. McKinney shared, "My father died in the hospital after falling out of his bed and fracturing his neck. I believe that if there were a second set of eyes, he would still be alive today." This is a testament to the importance of innovation in providing patient-centric care. Media Contact Name: Robert C Eisenman Email: gllsafekey@gmail.com Release ID: 847248

Laser Photonics Corporation (NASDAQ: LASE) Provides Strategic And Operational Update – A Look Into What This Means For Shareholders

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Laser Photonics Corporation (NASDAQ: LASE) (“LPC”), a leading global industrial developer of CleanTech laser systems for laser cleaning and other material applications, recently provided an update on its strategic and operational direction for shareholders. The company is best known for its specialization in integrated laser blasting solutions for corrosion control, rust removal, de-coating, pre- and post-welding, laser cleaning and surface conditioning which cater to a wide variety of industries. In October, LPC acquired an exclusive license for its cold-cutting and high-power laser technologies from ICT Investments, a private investment company focused on the alternative energy sector. This acquisition seems poised to strengthen LPC's TiTAN series of laser-cutting technology and serve as the foundation for its new SaberTech product line. This comes in the wake of Wayne Tupuola, CEO of Laser Photonics, expressing the company's commitment to long-term expansion, growth and increasing stockholder value. He acknowledged that LPC has only scratched the surface of the market's potential and technological capabilities. Laser Photonics’ CleanTech lasers are known for their advanced technology and safety features that contribute to the company’s reputation as a safer option compared to other blasting methods. The CleanTech laser systems operate by concentrating a high-powered laser onto the targeted area for cleaning purposes, and LPC reports that this technology effectively eliminates substances such as rust, corrosion, residue and paint from different materials without causing any harm to the surface beneath. By harnessing the energy released during the laser cleaning process, contaminants are efficiently and precisely removed from substrates. This method ensures that operators are protected from the potential hazards of using harmful chemicals and substances while achieving fast and accurate cleaning results, and LPC has been continuing to expand its existing product line to better serve the industries it partners with. LPC has made improvements to its laser technology exclusive to the maritime industry. Its key product in this industry, MARLIN, now features specialized laser patterns, water-tight seals and an updated design to better meet customer needs at a lower price point. LPC plans to further expand this product line to cater to professionals in shipbuilding and boat manufacturing. Similarly, LPC has adapted its CleanTech and MarkStar technology for the defense and military industry, tapping into the significant market potential for laser cleaning and marking technology. The adapted technology has been rebranded as DefenseTech. LPC is also transforming its TiTAN series of laser-cutting systems into the new SaberTech product line by incorporating the recently licensed cold-cutting and high-power laser technology. Meanwhile, the company also reports that its robust research and development team is intensifying its efforts in developing Class I systems to maintain its competitive edge and meet the growing demand driven by increased regulations and restrictions. To enhance its market leadership and improve the customer experience, LPC has also incorporated components into its existing laser products that enhance AI and IoT capabilities. The company also plans to offer on-site customer support and training with AI and IoT integration, further distinguishing itself from competitors. LPC is in discussions to expand its distribution network and establish strategic partnerships with large distributors to ensure broader access to its cutting-edge technology. The company seeks partners who support onshoring component and equipment manufacturing in the United States. Additionally, LPC has opened a new location in Maitland, Florida, to serve as its customer experience center. This facility will provide an enhanced presentation and demonstration of LPC technology to customers while also freeing up space at its R&D center to ramp up production capabilities. The global blasting market is projected to grow to $12 billion by 2025, and as more industries rely on laser technology, companies like LPC may benefit from rising demand. By staying at the forefront of industry advancements, Laser Photonics has established itself as a reliable and safety-oriented partner, providing cutting-edge solutions that cater to a global customer base.

Getting Fit On Your List Of New Year’s Resolutions? BODi Could Be What You Need For Your “Beachbody” – Check It Out Risk-Free

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga ‘Tis the season to indulge and set resolutions for the New Year. If losing weight, getting in shape or improving your overall health and wellness is on the list, then The Beachbody Company Inc. (NYSE: BODY) may be able to help. The health and wellness company that now goes by BODi has been offering consumers on-demand subscription-based fitness and wellness programs for over twenty-five years. It also sells Shakeology, a premium nutrition shake with five powerful superfood blends for whole-body health. Both offerings can help consumers get in shape in the New Year, a goal topping many people’s lists. A recent Forbes Health/OnePoll found that close to 48% of respondents said improving fitness was a top priority. It's not only to look good. Research consistently points to the positive health benefits of exercise. Fitness can improve your brain health, help you manage weight and reduce the risk of diseases, according to the Centers for Disease Control. Even with weight loss drugs like Ozempic exploding in the marketplace, there is still a need to build strength and muscle tone, which is why the market for online/virtual fitness is set to grow at a CAGR of 32.7% through 2032, becoming a $250.7 billion market. In 2022, the market was worth just $14.9 billion. Risk-Free Approach BODi, which recently revamped its digital platform, is making it easier for consumers to jump on the fitness train. Through its new subscription tier BODi Previews, potential customers can sample more than $59 worth of BODi content for free including popular workout programs P90X, Insanity, 21 Day Fix and #MuscleBurnsFat. Users also get access to nutrition guidelines and personal mindset content. What BODi thinks makes it so appealing is that users aren’t required to provide a credit card to access the free content. All they have to do is provide an email and then they can sample the programs before committing. The company is also offering a two-week sample called “The 14 Workout Challenge,” which gives users a taste of some of its popular programs. BODi is also launching a limited version of BODi Previews on YouTube, providing access to a wider audience. Combined, those efforts could prove beneficial for the company, given it's timed perfectly for the new year. "We believe in balancing growth with profitability in our mission of helping people improve their overall health esteem. BODi Previews is not only about expanding our reach; it's about reaching more people while also driving revenue streams that support our long-term vision," Carl Daikeler, co-founder and CEO of The Beachbody Company said when announcing the new subscription tier. “By leveraging the power of BODi Previews, the Company is poised to unlock new revenue streams, fortify its financial position and propel the health and wellness sector into a new era of accessibility and profitability.” What’s more, Daikeler said the company believes the new tier will drive a higher conversion rate of visitors to paying subscribers while at the same time attracting new prospects to the platform. Subscribers Growing So far, BODi’s efforts appear to be paying off. Since revamping its platform earlier this year, subscribers continue to renew from the former Beachbody on Demand subscription to the new BODi subscription at a rate of 60%, surpassing its original expectations. Premium digital subscriptions for BODi grew 27% in the third quarter from the second quarter. All told, BODi has over 900,000 paying digital subscribers as of the end of the third quarter, and with an emphasis on boosting marketing and sales, it could continue to grow. Fitness is on the minds of millions of people as we ring in 2024. Getting healthy and in shape is made easier thanks to digital offerings like BODi, which gives fitness enthusiasts a risk-free approach to reaching their New Year goals.
