NEWS GammaPod revolutionizes breast cancer treatment: Italy introduces high-dose stereotactic radiotherapy in a single session to Europe A new technology marks a turning point in the treatment of early-stage breast cancer GammaPod, one of the most advanced innovations in the treatment of breast cancer, officially arrives in Europe thanks to the commitment of Tema Sinergie SpA, an Italian company based in Faenza. With 40 years of experience in the healthcare sector, Tema Sinergie continues to be a benchmark for introducing innovative oncology solutions. The GammaPod system, invented by physicist Cedric Yu, Professor Emeritus at the University of Maryland (USA) and produced by Xcision Medical Systems, a U.S.-based company founded by Yu himself, was proudly introduced by Tema Sinergie to the European continent, installing the first system at the "Santa Maria della Misericordia" Hospital in Udine, and more set to begin treating patients soon. GammaPod represents a true revolution in the treatment of breast cancer: it allows the safe and precise administration of high doses of radiation to the tumor because, unlike conventional radiotherapy equipment, designed to treat tumors in all areas of the body, GammaPod was invented and designed to treat only breast cancer. For this reason, it is able to concentrate the entire dose on the tumor alone, drastically reducing exposure and damage to surrounding healthy tissue, thus minimizing side effects. This allows the tumor to be treated with a much higher dose of radiation until it is destroyed, in a single fraction. This non-invasive, single-fraction approach, replacing the numerous fractions used with conventional equipment, offers patients a rapid therapeutic path with obvious benefits also in terms of quality of life. The clinical study conducted at the hospital in Udine was recently published in the prestigious Red Journal (International Journal of Radiation Oncology, Biology, Physics) which demonstrated that GammaPod is safe and effective in the pre-operative treatment of breast cancer, with a significant reduction in the cell proliferation index (Ki-67), an important marker for evaluating the tumour response to radiotherapy. "The results are extraordinary," says Dr. Marco Trovò, Director of Radiotherapy at the Udine hospital. "GammaPod allows us to administer a very high dose of radiation in a single session, with a clear biological response, as indicated by the drop in Ki-67." On May 5, 2025, GammaPod will be the star of the Satellite Symposium "Reducing the Impact of Breast Cancer," organized by Tema Sinergie during the ESTRO 2025 congress in Vienna. The session will feature international experts, including Prof. Cedric Yu, who will delve into the technology's features, Prof. Asal Rahimi and Dr. Marco Trovò, who will present the results of their respective clinical studies. The symposium will be moderated by Prof. Philip Poortmans and Prof. Icro Meattini. Tema Sinergie's commitment to introduce this technology in Europe underscores the importance of international collaboration in bringing new patient care solutions to the market. With this commitment, GammaPod is set to become a key pillar in the fight against breast cancer worldwide.
EU Business News- Q1 2024 Operating for more than three decades, Negal Engineering is a Swiss-based company that specialises in advanced power electronics. Since its inception, this leading company has been on a mission to realise high-end circuit solutions for demanding applications – often those that had been deemed impossible by its peers. As a result, Negal Engineering enjoys a stellar reputation throughout the industry, renowned for its innovative flair and exceptional engineering capabilities. Negal Engineering develops complex power electronic systems using stateof-the-art semiconductor technologies and custom circuit topologies. By using the latest silicon carbide, or SiC, and gallium nitride, or GaN, semiconductors in combination with intelligent digital control, circuit losses are dramatically reduced and efficiency substantially increased. With this, Negal Engineering’s strength lies in the development of customised solutions that meet specific requirements and form factors, and has spent numerous years developing specialisms, in which it has built a wealth of expertise. Over the years, Negal Engineering has developed a number of groundbreaking solutions. The company, however, is best known for its core competencies and innovations, which have enabled the company to revolutionise the landscape of power electronics. Such competencies include active rectification systems for wide voltage ranges, marketed since 1995; ultrafast power supplies that are capable of adapting to voltage changes of up to 4,000V within 200 microseconds; and shock wave generators used in medical applications, generating 4kA pulses at 25,000V for bone and wound healing support. Engineering Excellence through Inimitable Innovation As the world around us continues to advance, as does our technologies. Whilst this has driven worldwide development, it has also called for the introduction of newer and more efficient technologies, which many businesses have struggled to develop. Since 1995, Negal Engineering has been developing and producing highly efficient power electronics solutions for the industrial and control technology sector. Renowned for its excellence, the company has been named in the Corporate Excellence Awards 2025. We heard more from Ralf Negele, CEO of Negal Engineering, below. Apr25018 “Bridging the toughest energy challenges, Negal Engineering delivers solutions where others see impossibility. From pioneering renewable energy storage to revolutionising power electronics, our innovations drive efficiency, sustainability, and reliability – reshaping industries and empowering a cleaner, more resilient energy future.” Negal Engineering places a great emphasis on quality assurance, allowing it to guide its processes to ensure client satisfaction. This pushes its team of expert engineers to not only design circuits but also accompany clients through the full development cycle – from concept and functional specification through to production readiness. This also includes the transfer of a finished development to series production. Negal Engineering remains invested in the quality of its products from its very inception right through to the end of its life cycle. During the development phase, its engineers will provide both advice for optimisation and the EMC-specific circuit design, which will then be verified with the appropriate measurements. Electronic assemblies must meet ever-evolving requirements in terms of efficiency, costs, and emissions. In order for a product to be placed on the market on time and successfully, all normative guidelines must be met in addition to technical specifications. As a result, the company understands the importance of appropriate documentation when ensuring consistent quality and strives to maintain the highest standards in compliance. Negal Engineering is certified to ISO9001:2015, a quality standard it allows to guide its daily operations. This not only enables Negal Engineering to maintain its exceptionally high standards but also paves the way for future innovation. Alongside its inimitable innovation capabilities, Negal Engineering has become a key player in the market for its approach to client-centricity. In addition to receiving continuous communication and support from Negal Engineering, clients can feel reassured that the company will always use the latest technology to develop its solutions. This is advantageous for the client, but poses a challenge for Negal Engineering, in which the company must learn the correct use of such new technologies. Obstacles are merely opportunities for growth for a company such as Negal Engineering, who remains committed to working tirelessly until it has achieved its client’s end goal. As Ralf proudly told us, “We simply don’t give up until everything works.” “Sometimes we have to take a different path to what we had initially planned, but we have always achieved our end goal.”
7. Engineering Excellence through Inimitable Innovation Most recently, Ralf told us that Negal Engineering encountered a challenge within one of its projects. The company was tasked with developing a railway converter that was capable of handling a higher voltage while incorporating state-of-the-art technologies, specifically SiC. SiC, or Silicon Carbide, is a cutting-edge material often used in power electronics due to its efficiency, high thermal conductivity, and ability to operate at higher voltages and temperatures in comparison to traditional materials. While the integration of the SiC series circuit presented unique challenges, these were successfully overcome through extensive research and innovative engineering solutions. This is just one example of Negal Engineering’s prowess; since 1995, the company has already implemented sophisticated control and power electronic solutions for more than 50 different companies, with its customers now successfully utilising these solutions worldwide. These solutions have enabled clients around the world to distinguish themselves from their competitors with the most demanding requirements, which would not be possible using the standard products available on the market. In fact, a client of Negal Engineering said of its work: “Negal Engineering is a very competent company in the field of highend power electronics, which successfully implements projects for customers all over the world – whether in the field of industry, mobility, or LED lighting, etc. Ultimately, Negal Engineering delivers classic Swiss engineering work that can compete on a global stage.” Negal Engineering aims to persist in pushing the boundaries of power electronics whilst actively contributing towards environmental sustainability and grid efficiency. The company has already developed a number of sustainability and future-focused projects, including wind turbine inverters, scaled from home use to several 100kW; DC/DC converters for efficient DC bus networks, which are key to integrating PV, EV, and future salt-battery technologies into homes and industries; and the ongoing UK project of AI-controlled home energy systems, enabling energy storage and smart grid stabilisation. Moving forward, the company will continue its work on solutions for domestic and industrial energy storage, as well as focusing on environmentally friendly solutions revolving around the use of salt-batteries. Such dedication to innovation and ongoing improvement has enabled Negal Engineering to shine in the industry as a key player, a company more than worthy of its title of Best Power Electronics Solutions Manufacturer 2025 – Switzerland.

Jul22493 9. Jul22493 Founded in 2016 within the perimeters of Italy’s beautiful Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park, Società Agricola Moldoi srl (SAM for short) is unique in its mission to both design and manufacture health and food products exclusively using products native to the area. With Nicola De Zordi, the company’s founder and owner, having been recognised as the Ambitious Business Owner of the Year 2025 – Italy (Health and Wellness), we were able to catch up with him to find out more about this venture. By cultivating and then processing the medicinal plants native to the Dolomites, SAM is able to craft certified, sustainable, natural, and ecofriendly supplements, extracts, and cosmetics. From sprays to oils, drops, capsules, and a choice selection of herbal teas, these items are proven to boost health and wellbeing, with rigorous, up-to-date scientific data being leveraged to ensure every item in this line performs its intended duty. All of the plants SAM uses encompass thousands of molecules of “health activity” – with these able to be expressed using technological or climate-based factors. SAM has laboratories to execute this just a short distance away from the fields where these plants naturally grow, and the sprinkling of innovation afforded in these settings leads to new ground being broken and the development of new, exciting products boasting high nutritional value. Taking a deeper dive into exactly what this entails, Nicola and his team are all experts in the practice of extraction using supercritical carbon dioxide, with this process proving critical in the creation and formulation of new, innovative food supplements and cosmetic products. Much of this stems from the background of Nicola himself, who was previously a researcher specialising in processes and formulation. Therefore, the next logical step was for him to start a company that offered total control over the entire production chain. One of incredibly few companies operating in this space capable of using supercritical carbon dioxide for these extractions, SAM is guided by an unwavering belief in the ability of green extractive methods and advocates for their use across the sector. As Nicola explained: “SAM contributes to improve the state of the art by publishing scientific papers with the University of Padova, the University of Trieste, and the University of Camerino.” In addition to these research papers, SAM is further moving the needle by collaborating with one of Italy’s leading food companies on a novel project concerning food transformation and subproducts. Diving deeper into this, Nicola told us: “We use these by-products to extract the important active components used in cosmetics and food supplement formulations.” This takes place alongside an ongoing commitment to assist companies in the creation of new products defined by technological and ingredient-based innovations. Having made a name for himself turning challenge into opportunity, Nicola’s career offers countless examples of this pioneer’s ambition seeing him through a number of difficulties, from the COVID-19 pandemic to issues pertaining to supply issues or global conflicts. From working as a pharmacist during lockdowns and assisting people in managing common illnesses using SAM’s Dolomi range to producing its own labels and packaging to save cost, Nicola’s pioneering mindset has led to solutions that benefit everyone. As we move through the rest of the year and beyond, Nicola is set to continue to introduce new products to the market, as well as invest in the company’s expansion. Some exciting patents are also set to be published and innovative technologies implemented, with plans to focus on female-specific conditions and cardiovascular disorders paving the way for this visionary to continue to push the boundaries of research and development in the field of natural products, cosmetics, and food supplements. Reflecting on this award, Nicola took the time to recognise those around him. He referred to SAM as a “small company, but one full of competences” – especially concerning Galvano J. Dotta, the company’s cosmetics expert; Luciano De Bona, SAM’s CFO; and the brand’s entire production department. For Nicola, this award is as much a testament to them as it is to him, as it is this team that have helped him bring his vision to life. From its location at the foot of Monte Pizzocco, Società Agricola Moldoi srl remains driven to usher in a brighter, greener future in this industry, with the ambitious vision of Nicola De Zordi being realised through a blend of innovation, dedication, and a respect of the natural world.

Jul22546 EU Business News- Q1 2024 hird-party IT consultants can help safeguard the public sector using a 360-degree, 24/7 overview of supply chains The government has released its new Plan for Change in a bid to secure the UK’s future by bolstering its security posture and strengthening critical infrastructure. Hospitals and energy suppliers will look to boost their defences under the new Cyber Security Resilience Bill, in order to safeguard public services and ensure growth. The new Bill will ensure that organisations that provide IT services to the public sector will no longer be an easy target for cybercriminals, with 1,000 services providers falling into the bracket of proposed measures that are expected to be introduced in the latter part of this year. The move will provide the public, businesses and investors with a greater confidence in IT and digital services, helping to spur economic growth. Between 2015 and 2019 cybercriminals cost the UK economy £22 billion a year, causing massive disruptions to the NHS and other public sector organisations. The Synnovis ransomware attack on 4th June 2024, caused widespread disruption to NHS services in London, with 10,152 acute outpatient appointments and 1,710 elective procedures postponed at King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust. Figures also show a hypothetical cyber-attack focused on key energy services in the South East of England could wipe a staggering £49 billion from the wider UK economy. The most recent Cyber Security Breaches Survey also highlights that 50 percent of UK businesses suffered an attack in the last 12 months, with more than seven million reported incidents in 2024. With this in mind, the government is looking to give the Technology Secretary extra powers to direct regulated organisations to take rapid action to strengthen their cybersecurity defences. Under the new Cyber Security Resilience Bill organisations and suppliers, such as data centres and Managed Service Providers (MSP), will need to adhere to strict cybersecurity requirements. This means that third-party suppliers will be required to boost their own cybersecurity postures to minimise the impact of cyberattacks by protecting their data and their networks. With companies required to report more incidents, this will build up a broader picture of cyberattacks and where weaknesses lie in networks and defences. This will help to better protect critical infrastructure, supply chains and the public. Plan for Change: Ensuring the UK’s Critical Infrastructure Is No Longer an Easy Target for Cybercriminals By AJ Thompson, CCO at IT Consultancy Northdoor plc T Jun22703 "AJ Thompson, CCO at Northdoor plc, explains: “The protection of critical services such as water, power and healthcare is crucial as the UK faces new and emerging cybersecurity threats. The Cyber Security Resilience Bill is designed to arm the UK with the cyber defences it needs to protect itself against increasingly sophisticated threats by safeguarding supply chains and critical infrastructure. “The attack on Synnovis is a prime example of how cybercriminals are using third-party suppliers to attack their intended ‘primary’ target. The NHS and other public service providers hold valuable, sensitive data and has always been a target for cybercriminals looking to sell this data for profit. In recent years the NHS has invested in front-line cyber defences, therefore cybercriminals have turned to an easier route to access data by targeting thirdparty groups supplying the healthcare and public sectors. “The key to keeping the back-door locked is having an overview of the possible vulnerabilities that lie within your supply chain. For most public sector organisations with a huge number of different partners and suppliers this seems like an impossible task. “Current methods of analysing supply chain risk usually involve surveys sent out to potential partners at the point of contract signing. This means that you are entirely reliant on the knowledge, expertise and honesty, of the IT team of your potential partner. In the face of such consistent and sophisticated attacks, this is no longer acceptable nor effective. “The nature of supply chain relationships means that almost every partner is connected into your systems. This is particularly the case with the public sector as partners providing critical services are essentially part of the organisation and therefore should be under the same levels of scrutiny as in-house departments. “The only way to do this effectively is to have a 360-degree, 24/7 overview of the whole supply chain. With internal teams struggling with the workload already, many are turning to qualified third-party Security Operations Centre provided by IT services consultancies. They have teams of experts who can supplement internal teams allowing for a comprehensive view of where vulnerabilities lie. This then allows NHS and other public sector organisations to have urgent conversations with supply chain partners to shut the vulnerabilities before they are exploited by cybercriminals,” concluded Thompson.
