Next-generation, AI-powered Randomization and Trial Supply Management system—designed to get studies to first-patient-in significantly faster  

CONSHOHOCKEN, Pa., April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Getting a clinical trial from contract to go-live can take months. For sponsors working to deliver therapies to patients who need them, the startup window is one of the most persistent drags on timelines—and one of the hardest to compress.  

Today, Suvoda, a global clinical trial technology company and a recognized leader in the RTSM space, announced agentic RTSM: the next evolution of Suvoda IRT that uses agentic AI to take a study from project kickoff to User Acceptance Testing (UAT) in as little as two weeks. 

Agentic RTSM is part of a broader AI strategy that, together with Suvoda’s AI assistant Sofia, delivers three outcomes for sponsors and study teams: 

In Suvoda RTSM, multiple AI agents accelerate distinct phases of the study build—including software configuration, customization, and testing—and speed up change orders. Because agentic RTSM is built on the patented Suvoda Platform, it leverages the Virtual Partition architecture and the code generation capabilities of the platform’s low-code/no-code tools, rather than rebuilding from scratch for each build. It also drives rapid agentic setup through access to a shared data layer with comprehensive data on trial configurations that have been refined through Suvoda’s experience with thousands of complex trials. This approach allows Suvoda’s team to focus where it matters most: delivering expert consulting and calm guidance at every stage of the trial. 

“Clinical trials are only becoming more complex and more urgent, and our customers shouldn’t have to deal with technology that slows them down,” said Jagath Wanninayake, CEO, Suvoda. “With agentic RTSM, we’re using AI to remove friction from trial startup—so sponsors can begin enrolling patients sooner, sites get a smarter and more responsive experience, and study teams spend less time on administrative tasks and more time on the work that matters.” 

Suvoda is currently working with a select group of early adopters to deploy agentic RTSM capabilities, solidifying the operational and services foundation to support broader rollout. Suvoda is also enhancing Sofia, its AI assistant, to support monitoring, provide alerts, and take direct actions with appropriate safeguards to support the study process. The company plans to extend the agentic model to eCOA and its financial services products, bringing the same startup speed and consistency to questionnaire-based studies, to participant travel, and to patient and site payments. 

“Our goal is to make every moment in a trial smarter—whether we’re building a complex RTSM system for a study, responding to a protocol amendment, or helping a site coordinator get the right answer in seconds,” said E.K. Koh, Chief Product Officer, Suvoda. “Agentic RTSM is one of the first steps in a broader AI vision. Speed, quality, and experience don’t have to be trade-offs—they can all move forward together.” 

At the heart of Suvoda RTSM is a commitment to the people it serves: the sponsors testing new treatments, the sites running trials, and ultimately the patients waiting for therapies. Faster startup isn’t just an operational metric—it’s a step toward getting medicines to the people who need them sooner. 

ABOUT SUVODA 

Suvoda is a global clinical trial technology company with a market-leading, real-time software platform that empowers sponsors and CROs to make confident decisions and sites and patients to take calm, controlled action. Suvoda delivers interconnected, action-driven software solutions and industry-leading services and support, so that even in the most time-sensitive, mission-critical moments, life-changing studies keep moving forward. Headquartered outside Philadelphia, Suvoda also maintains offices in Portland, OR, Barcelona, Spain, Bucharest and Iasi, Romania, and Tokyo, Japan. The company maintains customer satisfaction scores that consistently exceed the technology industry average, contributing to the company being selected by trial sponsors and CROs to support more than 6,000 trials across more than 115 countries. Suvoda recently merged with Greenphire, a leading provider of clinical trial financial management and patient support tools. To learn more, visit suvoda.com and follow Suvoda on LinkedIn.

MOTIV BTK randomized trial met primary efficacy endpoint, with early and sustained clinical benefit in a complex patient population 

SAN DIEGO, April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — REVA Medical, LLC today announced primary endpoint results from the MOTIV BTK randomized pivotal clinical trial evaluating the MOTIV® sirolimus-eluting bioresorbable vascular scaffold in patients with critical limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI). The results were presented today at the Charing Cross International Symposium in London, UK. 

The MOTIV BTK trial met both its primary safety and efficacy endpoints, demonstrating that the MOTIV scaffold provides a statistically significant improvement in clinical outcomes compared to the current standard of care, balloon angioplasty. 

Results of the one-year MOTIV BTK clinical trial showed: 

The trial enrolled a complex CLTI population, including a high proportion of Rutherford 5 patients and challenging lesion characteristics representative of real-world disease. 

“Patients with critical limb-threatening ischemia have limited treatment options and face a high risk of limb loss and mortality,” said Ehrin Armstrong, MD, MSc, Interventional Cardiology and Vascular Intervention HCA HealthOne Swedish Medical Center, Denver, Colorado and Principal Investigator of the MOTIV BTK trial. “The MOTIV data demonstrate a meaningful and statistically significant improvement over balloon angioplasty, particularly in a complex patient population.” 

CLTI is the most severe form of peripheral artery disease, affecting millions of patients worldwide and often leading to severe pain, non-healing wounds, and amputation. Balloon angioplasty remains a primary treatment option in the U.S., but long-term vessel patency remains a significant challenge. The MOTIV bioresorbable scaffold is designed to open blocked arteries, support the vessel during healing, and then gradually be reabsorbed by the body, restoring the vessel without leaving a permanent implant. 

In addition, the MOTIV scaffold is designed with full radiopacity, enabling physicians to directly visualize the scaffold during implantation and optimize placement in complex below-the-knee anatomy. 

“The MOTIV trial results represent a significant advancement for patients in the treatment of below-the-knee disease,” said Jeffrey Anderson, President and Chief Executive Officer of REVA Medical. “The magnitude of benefit observed, along with early and sustained clinical improvement, reinforces the potential of bioresorbable scaffold technology to address a critical unmet need in this high-risk patient population.” 

The MOTIV BTK trial is a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled study evaluating the safety and efficacy of the MOTIV scaffold compared to balloon angioplasty in patients with infrapopliteal arterial disease.

NORDERSTEDT and BABENHAUSEN, Germany, April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — tesa, an international manufacturer of innovative adhesive tapes and self-adhesive product solutions, and technology company AUMOVIO, a spin-off of Continental’s Automotive business unit, will work more closely together going forward. Together, the partners are introducing a new solution for the mechanical integration of automotive displays. 

In automotive display manufacturing, adhesive solutions are the primary technology used to meet growing demand for sleek and ultra-thin frames. In cooperation with AUMOVIO, tesa is now taking the next step. The new solution combines state-of-the-art bonding technology with optimized material usage and pioneering concepts – enabling a controlled, detachable adhesive bond that simplifies corrections during production and repairs throughout the entire product life cycle. 

Precision meets durable, selectively detachable adhesive bonding 

The new process uses an adhesive tape applied robotically. The bond is instantly load-bearing and can be seamlessly integrated into existing production lines. At the same time, it can be detached as required, allowing display assemblies to be selectively replaced or reworked during production or service – without having to replace the entire display module. 

“This partnership demonstrates how innovative materials technology is advancing the mobility of tomorrow. Together with AUMOVIO, we offer automated adhesive bonds that not only provide long-term durability but can also be deliberately debonded – enabling efficient production, longer product life cycles, and circular product concepts. This helps our customers translate their sustainability goals into tangible product solutions,” says David Caro, Head of Automotive at tesa. 

Pavel Prouza, Head of the User Experience business area (UX) of AUMOVIO, explains, “The combination of highly precise, automated application and targeted detachability adds an important element to our manufacturing and quality processes. It strengthens the robustness of our production, reduces material waste, and promotes efficient use of valuable components. For the end customer, this could even mean that future repairs may require replacing only the affected individual components in a cost-effective way.” 

More sustainable display solution: securely bonded but still detachable 

The new system is a significant step toward the future, combining the proven advantages of viscoelastic adhesive bonds with properties that support circularity. The bond requires no curing time and reliably compensates for material expansion across the full temperature range typically encountered in automotive environments. Thanks to its fully automated application, it can be seamlessly integrated into existing production lines. With a tape width of only 2 mm, it enables exceptionally narrow display bezels similar to those seen in smartphones. 

At the same time, the bond can be detached as required. Display assemblies can be selectively replaced or reworked during production or service without replacing the entire display module. 

tesa and AUMOVIO use adhesive tapes featuring Debonding on Demand technology, which allows the bond to be selectively detached with little effort. 

This facilitates the replacement of individual display units during the product’s life cycle as well as recycling at the end of the vehicle’s service life. AUMOVIO is already in discussions with automotive manufacturers on the implementation of recycling and repair programs for selected components. The solution supports the circular economy, making a tangible contribution to AUMOVIO’s sustainability strategy by creating long-term economic, social, and environmental value through innovative mobility solutions. 

With the official launch of the partnership, tesa and AUMOVIO are now preparing integration of this new solution into volume production for the second quarter of 2026. 

About tesa SEAs a multinational company, tesa has been developing innovative adhesive tapes and self-adhesive product solutions for various industries, commercial customers, and end consumers for more than 125 years. There are already more than 7,000 tesa adhesive solutions that help improve the work, products or lives of our customers.

NEW DELHI, April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Shahi Exports, one of India’s largest apparel manufacturers and exporters, has partnered with US-based Innovo Fiber LLC to scale the Fibre52® cotton pretreatment technology across its integrated textile operations. This initiative at Shahi’s knits processing facility marks the largest industrial-scale deployment of the technology globally and a significant step forward inlower-impact cotton processing at scale. 

Together, the partnership brings Fibre52®’s patented biochemistry platform with Shahi’s manufacturing scale to advance more resource-efficient cotton processing within large-scale textile production. 

Cotton pretreatment is one of the most resource-intensive stages in textile manufacturing. Fibre52® introduces a drop-in, low-temperature pretreatment system that uses ZDHC MRSL v3.1 and OEKO-TEX®-approved chemistries. The process can preserve the natural wax and softness of cotton fiber while eliminating the use of caustic soda and reducing resource intensity compared to conventional pretreatment. 

Since early 2024, Fibre52®’s trials at Shahi progressed through a structured validation process of 5MT, 20MT, and, more recently, 100MT fabric trials. The results demonstrated reductions of approximately 25% in water consumption and 49% in steam consumption compared to conventional pretreatment systems. 

As part of the scale-up roadmap, Shahi plans to transition approximately 25% of its knit processing capacity to the Fibre52® pretreatment system, representing close to 3,000 tons per annum. This marks the shift from controlled trials to industrial adoption within a large, vertically integrated manufacturing environment. 

Shahi and Fibre52® are advancing this collaboration as a long-term innovation platform. The focus is on expanding applications, deepening integration across product categories, and reinforcing scalable pathways for lower-impact textile manufacturing. 

Laura Thornquist, President of Innovo Fiber, Fibre52®’s parent company, said:”What makes this partnership unique is not just the technology, but the alignment of vision. Shahi and Fibre52® came together with a shared commitment to rethinking cotton processing at scale. When innovation capability and manufacturing discipline work in sync, real transformation becomes possible.” 

Anant Ahuja, Director of ESG & Sustainability, Shahi Exports, said:”This collaboration reflects the value of close partnership. The Fibre52® team brought a different approach, and Shahi focused on how it could work within our production environment. Together, this has progressed from early validation to measurable production outcomes. It is encouraging to see how sustainability and performance can come together at an industrial scale.” 

About Shahi Exports 

Shahi Exports is one of India’s largest integrated apparel manufacturers and exporters, supplying leading global fashion and lifestyle brands. The company operates a broad network of textile and garment manufacturing facilities and continues to invest in manufacturing innovation, responsible sourcing, and resource-efficient production.

PISA – In occasione della Settimana mondiale delle vaccinazioni lanciata dall’Oms, l’Azienda Usl Toscana nord ovest e l’università di Pisa uniscono le forze per promuovere la profilassi come scudo per la salute pubblica. Per agevolare la cittadinanza, le istituzioni hanno organizzato una rete di aperture straordinarie dei centri vaccinali sul territorio: sarà possibile accedere liberamente e senza appuntamento, portando con sé solo documento d’identità e tessera sanitaria.

L’iniziativa vedrà l’impiego sul campo dei medici in formazione della Scuola di Specializzazione in Igiene e Medicina Preventiva dell’Ateneo. Un coinvolgimento che riflette la visione della prorettrice Enza Pellecchia: “La salute e il benessere non sono servizi accessori, ma parte integrante dell’esperienza universitaria”. Serve infatti un cambio di passo, come evidenziato dalla professoressa Caterina Rizzo, per passare a “una medicina proattiva e fondata sulla prevenzione”. Un concetto ribadito dal direttore del Dipartimento della prevenzione Asl, Luca Carneglia, che definisce il vaccino un “gesto di responsabilità individuale” essenziale per fare argine contro le malattie infettive e tutelare i soggetti fragili.

REDAZIONE

Milano, 21 Aprile 2026. Immaginate un tramonto di fine giugno, dove l’aria vibra di calda attesa e la luce accarezza il vostro abito da cerimonia, la silhouette esaltata dall’impalpabile fluidità del tessuto, lo scollo, profondo, impreziosito da scultorei fiori in 3D e leggere piume danzanti. 

Riuscite a vederlo? Ecco, bene, benvenute nell’estate 2026 allora!  

Quest’anno, infatti, l’universo delle nozze e degli eventi di gala della bella stagione si risveglia come un giardino in piena fioritura sartoriale. L’abito da cerimonia estivo finalmente muta pelle, smettendo i panni della semplice uniforme imposta dal galateo per elevarsi a magnifica tela su cui dipingere la propria identità. Un’ode vibrante a un massimalismo raffinato dove i fiori non si accontentano più di sbocciare sulle stampe (ma esplodono in tre dimensioni sulle scollature) e le piume danzano a ogni passo, come sussurri nel vento. È un risveglio estetico in cui le regole non vengono abolite, ma elegantemente aggirate con un sorriso complice. 

Le passerelle internazionali hanno tracciato la rotta, offrendo capolavori che spaziano dalla geometria affilata di un cyber-chic cittadino fino al romanticismo sussurrato degli chiffon fluttuanti. In questo caleidoscopio di eccellenze che abbiamo preparato per voi – in cui uniamo il gotha internazionale ai pilastri intramontabili del Made in Italy – cercheremo insieme gli
abiti estivi perfetti per una cerimonia
, esplorando le offerte di brand come
Elisabetta Franchi
, magistrale nel tradurre il dinamismo metropolitano in una femminilità fluida vitale e consapevole, Dolce & Gabbana, audace nei suoi contrasti seducenti, Zimmerman, impareggiabile nella scelta dei colori, e tantissimi altri. 

Anzi, cominciamo subito: ecco, secondo adnkronos, i dieci protagonisti dell’estate 2026. 

Entrare nell’atelier virtuale delle tendenze estive significa intraprendere un viaggio sensoriale tra tessuti che accarezzano la pelle come onde leggere e tagli che ridisegnano la postura del corpo. Questa classifica non è un semplice elenco didascalico, ma una bussola per orientarsi nel mare dorato del nuovo lusso. Ogni brand rappresenta un microcosmo stilistico con una missione precisissima: far sì che chi lo indossa non risulti solo impeccabile, ma assolutamente magnetica. 

In definitiva, la vibrante stagione calda del 2026 ci sussurra una verità profonda e ineludibile: la moda, nelle sue espressioni più alte, non è mai pura frivolezza, ma un linguaggio denso di significato. Scegliere quale abito da cerimonia indossare in un giorno di giubilo significa, di fatto, prendere la penna in mano e scrivere la propria personalissima battuta all’interno della sceneggiatura di un evento corale. 

L’abito da cerimonia perfetto, lungi dall’essere una rigida gabbia di convenzioni sociali o un mero capriccio passeggero, si rivela essere una preziosa seconda pelle; uno specchio cristallino capace di riflettere e proiettare all’esterno la nostra più intima e luminosa architettura interiore. In questo vertiginoso gioco di riflessi, sospeso tra artigianato millenario e innovazione d’avanguardia, l’alta sartoria compie il suo incantesimo più grande: ci solleva da terra, ci permette di abitare lo spazio con poetica grazia, e trasforma la semplice presenza fisica in una dichiarazione di stile scolpita, indimenticabile e senza tempo.

MILAN, April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Kohler, in partnership with Richard Christiansen, founder of Flamingo Estate, unveils The Flamingo Estate Bathhouse by Kohler at Milan Design Week 2026. The immersive, multi-sensory installation invites visitors into an elemental world where architecture, landscape, and serenity are conceived as a single, interdependent experience, creating a space for contemplation and renewal. 

Set within the courtyard of the Padiglione d’Arte Contemporanea (Via Palestro, 14), the installation is anchored by the Bathhouse, a bold brutalist structure that appears to emerge organically from a meadow of seven species of untamed wildflowers, dissolving the boundary between built form and living ecosystem. Drawing inspiration from the bathhouse at Flamingo Estate in California, the 247-square-foot monolithic structure draws on a palette of weathered metals and elemental surfaces. Clad in intonachino plaster that evokes the mineral texture and weight of concrete, the Bathhouse features monumental stained-glass windows by Milan-based artisan Samuele Dossena, filtering light across terracotta-toned surfaces, while Flamingo Estate candles line the walls, enhancing a quiet, calming atmosphere. 

“The Bathhouse is a meditation on ritual, nature, and the quiet power of materials,” said Richard Christiansen, Founder of Flamingo Estate. “We imagined a place where wildflowers, water, and light come together to create a sensory experience that reconnects us to the rhythms of the earth. Partnering with Kohler allowed us to bring this vision to life with an extraordinary level of craft, creating a space that invites people to slow down, reflect, and re-engage with the natural world.” 

Entering the Bathhouse, visitors encounter Reverie, a new expression of Kohler’s iconic freestanding enameled cast iron bath, reimagined with a copper shroud that serves as the focal point of the space. The shroud wraps the cast iron bath, which is made with at least 80% recycled materials, underscoring a legacy of sustainable craftsmanship designed to endure. This marks the first time Kohler has used copper as a defining material in bath design, introducing a new dimension to the category. 

“Design and the creative process are always central to Kohler, shaping our tradition and propelling our progress,” said David Kohler, Chair and CEO of Kohler Co. “We see design as a bridge between heritage and innovation, continually evolving through material exploration and craft. We are delighted to partner with Richard Christiansen and Flamingo Estate during Milan Design Week to continue to inspire through art and design.” 

Nestled throughout the garden are four one-of-a-kind pollinator baths, conceived by Christiansen designed by Kohler and cast in its historic Wisconsin foundry. These sculptural vessels serve as sanctuaries for birds, bees, and other pollinating species, extending the installation narrative of reciprocity between human craft and the natural world. 

“For the Flamingo Estate Bathhouse, we wanted to explore the relationship between architecture and ecology, how design can create moments of care not just for people, but for the natural world around us,” said Michael Seum, VP of Global Design at Kohler Co. “The pollinator baths translate this idea into sculptural form, drawing from Brutalist principles on the exterior while softening into organic, nature-informed surfaces within. It’s a reflection of our belief that design should hold space for both human ritual and environmental stewardship.” 

The Flamingo Estate Bathhouse by Kohler elevates bathing into a restorative experience and a place of ritual and retreat, one that slows the body, quiets the mind, and heightens awareness of light, water, and material. Through its integration of architecture, craft, and ecology, the installation reflects a shared vision between Kohler and Flamingo Estate: that enduring wellness emerges through a deeper connection to nature. 

The candles in the Bathhouse were created by Flamingo Estate specifically for the installation. The Flamingo Estate Pollinator Candle is complemented by the Pollinator Bath Soap Brick. The scent was inspired by a walk through Milan city streets. Wild Linden Blossom is an olfactory invitation to walk through Milan in bloom. At the threshold of Summer, the iconic Tiglio Tree blossoms at once — perfuming entire boulevards with a sublime, honeyed warmth authentic to Milan. From sunlit markets, Bergamot pulses with the green, sparkling brightness of its rind, as sweet pollen dusts the air. Both the candle and soap brick are available for purchase on FlamingoEstate.com. 

Unveiled during FuoriSalone at the Padiglione d’Arte Contemporanea, Via Palestro 14, 20121 Milan, Italy, the installation is open to the public from Tuesday, April 21 through Sunday, April 26. Hours are as follows: Tuesday, 12:00–7:00 PM; Wednesday, 12:00–4:00 PM and 7:00–10:00 PM; Thursday through Saturday, 12:00–10:00 PM; and Sunday, 12:00–6:00 PM.

About Flamingo EstateSettled in the 1940s high atop the hills of Los Angeles, Flamingo Estate throughout its history has been a hedonistic enclave of sun-worship, folk mythologies, and psychedelic remedies — a secret haven for wild alchemy in the City of Angels. Now, Flamingo Estate is the home of Richard Christiansen, and, in the spirit of its origins, a radical celebration of pleasure from the garden. We carefully cultivate Mother Nature’s wildest, most precious gifts, at a time when we need them most. Championing the idea that Mother Nature is the last great luxury house, and sourcing rare ingredients from over 125 farms and collaborators. Instead of commodity ingredients, our goal is to get as close to the raw, natural material as possible, and to be able to trace each ingredient back to the farmer who planted it. Creating nutrient-dense rituals for daily pleasure, with Mother Nature as the guide.

LONDON, April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Fastmarkets and Expana, global leaders in commodity price reporting and market intelligence, today announced a strategic partnership to deliver deeper, more actionable forest products intelligence to customers. 

Under the partnership, Fastmarkets’ trusted forest products price benchmarks will be integrated directly into the Expana platform, giving customers streamlined access to essential upstream pricing alongside downstream market insights. The collaboration is designed to support faster, more confident decision‑making across increasingly complex and volatile forest products markets. 

By combining Fastmarkets’ authoritative, IOSCO‑compliant price assessments with Expana’s downstream intelligence and analytics, customers can access critical pricing for key forest product categories – including pallets, wood, recovered paper and packaging – within a single workflow. 

“As forest products markets become more volatile and margin pressure increases, customers need trusted price benchmarks embedded alongside downstream intelligence,” said Raju Daswani, CEO at Fastmarkets. “Partnering with Expana allows us to deliver that combination in a way that is practical, decision‑ready and directly aligned with how Expana’s agri-food customers operate.” 

Fastmarkets delivers some of the most widely relied-upon forest products price assessments globally, spanning pulp, recovered paper, timber, biomass, wood products, pallets, tissue, nonwovens and graphic paper. These benchmarks provide transparency and confidence to buyers, sellers and traders navigating dynamic market conditions. 

“At Expana, we are committed to providing our users with comprehensive, reliable data to support smarter decision-making,” said Julie Harris, CEO at Expana “Fastmarkets’ authoritative forest products price benchmarks are a natural fit for our customers, and this partnership represents a meaningful step forward in expanding the insights available on our platform,” she added. 

Expana delivers comprehensive market intelligence and analytics across food, beverage and FMCG supply chains, with deep expertise in packaging materials, industrial inputs and cost modeling. The platform’s advanced analytics and forecasting tools help customers understand cross-commodity relationships and supply chain impacts, enabling more strategic procurement decisions across volatile markets.

Acquisition connects communications, collaboration, intelligent automation, and physical workplace services in one employee hub 

AUSTIN, Texas, April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LumApps, the leading connected AI employee hub, has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Comeen, the workplace experience platform specializing in space management, digital signage and visitor services. 

This acquisition is a pivotal step in LumApps’ vision to create a platform where work comes together—bringing communication, knowledge and workflows and now physical workplace services into a single, unified AI-powered experience. 

The transaction marks a natural evolution of a long-standing partnership, reflecting a broader strategy where ecosystem collaborations drive core platform innovation. By bridging the gap between digital and physical environments, LumApps is embedding workplace management directly into the daily flow of work. Organizations will benefit from higher adoption and measurable improvements in space utilization, operational efficiency, and employee experience. 

According to LumApps’ Future of Work Index, nearly 70% of senior leaders say employee engagement is a growing priority. Yet workplace services remain fragmented across multiple applications. LumApps addresses this by unifying employee experience and workplace experience in one platform—where AI agents connect and automate interactions across both digital and physical environments.  

The combined platform supports: 

“Work doesn’t happen in one place or one system—it happens across tools, teams, and environments,” said Sébastien Ricard, CEO of LumApps. “With Comeen, we’re extending our AI Agent Hub into the physical workplace, bringing everything employees need into one platform—where work truly comes together across digital and physical environments. With enterprise digital signage, we can now extend that experience even further, reaching employees wherever they work.” 

“When we invested in LumApps, we saw a platform redefining the digital workplace,” said David Nicault, Partner and Head of Technology Investing at Bridgepoint, “With the addition of Beekeeper, LumApps expanded to serve both frontline and desk-based employees. With Comeen, LumApps now takes the next step—activating its AI agent strategy with deep workplace capabilities, unlocking the full value of AI across the digital and physical workplace. 

“The market has long separated digital employee experience from workplace experience, creating fragmented systems and underused spaces,” said Ben Gauthier, CEO of Comeen. “By bringing them together through AI-driven interactions, we’re turning the employee hub into the operational brain of the workplace — where engagement, space, and services work as one system.” 

The transaction is expected to complete in May 2026. 

LumApps was advised by Squire Patton Boggs, led by Anthony Guillaume (Partner M&A / PE) and Victor Dransard (Associate M&A / PE). Comeen was advised by Gide Loyrette Nouel, led by Louis Oudot de Dainville (Parner), counsels Donald Davy and Charles Ghuysen, and associates Manon Garoui and Joseph Leveque. 

Integration of Comeen capabilities into the LumApps platform is available immediately, as they were already part of our Marketplace, with new workplace experience features rolling out throughout 2026. To learn more, visit LumApps.com. Both companies will be at Google Next April 22-24 in Las Vegas. 

About LumAppsLumApps is the AI Employee Hub where work comes together — connecting people, tools, information, and communication across the entire employee experience, from the frontline to HQ. Designed around how people actually work, LumApps reduces digital friction by bringing communication, productivity tools, learning, and workflows into one intelligent platform.

Roma, 20 aprile 2026 — Aste Florio S.R.L. annuncia il lancio ufficiale della piattaforma di aste giudiziarie online

asteflorio.it
, un portale digitale progettato per aggregare e rendere facilmente consultabili tutte le aste immobiliari giudiziarie presenti sul territorio italiano. 

Operativa da circa 60 giorni, la piattaforma indicizza già oltre 20.000 immobili attivi, distribuiti su tutte le 20 regioni italiane, coinvolgendo tutte le province e i 140 tribunali del Paese. Il controvalore complessivo supera i 2,9 miliardi di euro, confermando la rilevanza del mercato di riferimento. 

Il comparto delle aste giudiziarie immobiliari in Italia genera ogni anno oltre 80.000 procedure, ma continua a essere caratterizzato da una forte dispersione delle informazioni. 

Dati e documentazione risultano distribuiti tra portali istituzionali, siti dei tribunali e pubblicazioni non uniformi. Questo scenario rende complesso l’accesso soprattutto per chi si avvicina per la prima volta. 

«Chi si approccia alle aste giudiziarie si trova spesso davanti a un ecosistema informativo frammentato e poco intuitivo», spiega il CEO Paolo Florio. «Documenti tecnici complessi, linguaggio giuridico e informazioni distribuite su più fonti rappresentano una barriera reale all’ingresso». 

La piattaforma di aste giudiziarie online sviluppata da Aste Florio introduce un approccio orientato alla semplificazione e alla leggibilità dei dati. 

Ogni immobile viene analizzato e rielaborato, combinando tecnologia e competenza professionale, con l’obiettivo di rendere immediatamente comprensibili le informazioni più rilevanti. 

Le schede includono: 

Particolare attenzione è dedicata alla trasparenza economica: il sistema evidenzia il potenziale risparmio rispetto al valore di mercato, che può arrivare fino al 60%, calcolato sulla base della stima peritale. 

Uno degli elementi distintivi di questa piattaforma di aste giudiziarie online riguarda le funzionalità di ricerca, tra le principali: 

Ricerca geografica multilivello
 

È possibile filtrare gli immobili per regione, provincia, comune e — nelle principali città — anche per quartiere o zona specifica. 

Disegno manuale dell’area
 

L’utente può tracciare direttamente sulla mappa un’area personalizzata, visualizzando esclusivamente gli immobili presenti all’interno del perimetro selezionato. 

Mappa interattiva con clustering
 

Gli immobili sono rappresentati tramite una mappa dinamica con raggruppamento intelligente dei risultati, utile per una visione d’insieme immediata. 

Filtri combinabili
 

Tipologia, prezzo, superficie, data d’asta e tribunale possono essere combinati per ottenere risultati mirati e aggiornati in tempo reale. 

La piattaforma integra funzionalità pensate per chi monitora il mercato in modo continuativo. 

Attraverso un account gratuito è possibile: 

«Il mercato delle aste è estremamente dinamico», sottolinea Paolo Florio. «Le opportunità più interessanti vengono assorbite rapidamente: disporre di un sistema di monitoraggio automatico rappresenta un vantaggio concreto». 

Accanto alla componente digitale, Aste Florio mantiene un presidio territoriale strutturato, con oltre 60 uffici operativi in Italia e un team di professionisti specializzati. 

Il servizio copre l’intero processo: 

Il modello economico adottato è basato su success fee, con compenso dovuto esclusivamente in caso di aggiudicazione. 

Il portale integra una sezione editoriale dedicata alla divulgazione, con: 

«La trasparenza informativa è un elemento centrale», evidenzia Paolo Florio. «L’obiettivo è rendere comprensibile un settore spesso percepito come complesso, ampliando la platea di utenti consapevoli». 

Il sito è già disponibile all’indirizzo
https://asteflorio.it
, accessibile da desktop e dispositivi mobili, con interfaccia ottimizzata per la consultazione in mobilità. 

La piattaforma è disponibile in lingua italiana e inglese, per rispondere anche alla domanda crescente di investitori internazionali. 

Aste Florio S.R.L. è una società di consulenza specializzata in aste giudiziarie immobiliari, attiva dal 2017. Ha assistito oltre 5.000 clienti e partecipato a più di 5.000 aste su tutto il territorio nazionale.
