Veson Nautical, the global market leader for commercial maritime software, is proud to announce its strategic acquisition of Oceanbolt, a dynamic data solutions product for bulk commodity trade flow analysis and marine shipping intelligence.

Oceanbolt’s data solution provides web-based and API access to high integrity, real-time data on commodity trade flows, freight tonnage flows, live and accurate vessel positions, port congestion, port activity, and turnaround times – instrumental insights for strategically managing demurrage, for example.

Since the inception of the Norway-based venture in 2019, Oceanbolt’s innovative data platform has earned the respect of an impressive client base of dry bulk owner-operators, commodities traders, supply chain coordinators, and tonnage charterers. Oceanbolt combines a best-in-class AIS processing engine with a proprietary geospatial database of port and berth polygons to allow computationally expensive calculations to be processed in a matter of seconds. Today, Oceanbolt processes 30+ billion data points, makes 60+ million daily observations, and tracks 5+ billion tons of cargo each year over 140 commodities.

“The industry expertise, marketing insight, and technical capability that the Oceanbolt team has delivered to the industry is truly remarkable,” said Veson Nautical CEO, John Veson. “We are thrilled to welcome Oceanbolt to the Veson family. Our two organizations are deeply aligned in our mission to empower the maritime shipping and commodity trading communities to make the best possible decisions with the greatest possible agility.”

“We are extremely excited to be partnering with Veson Nautical and are confident that users will benefit from a significantly enhanced product offering,” said Niclas Dæhli Priess, Co-founder, Oceanbolt. “There are clear benefits from combining Oceanbolt’s analytics-focused solution with Veson’s extensive suite of products and industry knowledge,” Priess added. “With shared resources from Veson, we expect to see the accuracy and functionality of Oceanbolt’s algorithms further enhanced. VIP users will benefit from having additional data and increased visibility at the right time when making trading or commercial freight decisions.”

“In an increasingly digital world, the ability to successfully deploy data-driven decision-making processes is becoming a key competitive differentiator,” said Mads Schou-Andreasen, CEO, and Co-founder, Oceanbolt.

“With so much at stake for industry stakeholders, it’s critical that we deliver trusted and accurate data solutions that empower our clients with actionable insights,” said Schou-Andreasen. “Oceanbolt and Veson’s shared vision for the shipping and commodity industries will accelerate our innovation, opening up new ways for our clients to leverage data to make better business decisions. Together, we can deliver the most compelling data and analytics solutions available in the market.”

Oceanbolt, Co-founders Niclas Dæhli Priess and Mads Schou-Andreasen will join the Veson Nautical team as Director, Product Management and Director, Software Engineering – responsible for the Oceanbolt product.

The addition of the Oceanbolt solution to Veson’s suite of offerings strengthens Veson’s mission to be the standard platform that propels maritime commerce by deepening and expanding their breadth of expertise and resources, driving value for both client communities.

Deeper Insights for Veson Nautical Clients
As the appetite for decision-ready data continues to intensify, Oceanbolt will provide Veson clients the opportunity to benefit from a robust and dynamic data intelligence solution with more direct access to key market insights and analysis of trade flow, congestion, and global vessel events. By providing rich, real-time data on a multitude of external variables that impact decisions for all stakeholders in the marine contract, Oceanbolt will strengthen the integrity, depth, and breadth of data available to Veson clients in support of our goal to transform the way they work and make decisions. The addition of Oceanbolt will also provide Veson with new opportunities to serve commodity trader and supply chain scheduler users more robustly. Oceanbolt will be offered as a standalone product for Veson clients, with future potential for direct integration of Oceanbolt data into the Veson IMOS Platform.

Robust Commercial Capabilities for Oceanbolt Clients
Ultimately, decision-shaping insights like those provided by Oceanbolt must make their way into business workflows for their true value to be unlocked. As a robust commercial platform with value that is widely recognized by the world’s leading owner-operators, commodities traders, and tonnage charterers, the Veson IMOS Platform provides Oceanbolt clients with the dynamic tools and capabilities needed to bring data to life in the moments where it can make the greatest possible impact. Furthermore, Veson possesses robust expertise and specialized functionality that can add tremendous value to clients in the dry bulk, tanker, and energy segments.

Tetra Pharm Technologies and Glysious Announce Collaboration to Develop Transdermal Combination Drugs Targeting the Endocannabinoid System

Published

on

tetra-pharm-technologies-and-glysious-announce-collaboration-to-develop-transdermal-combination-drugs-targeting-the-endocannabinoid-system

The collaboration brings together Tetra Pharm Technologies’ expertise in enabling technology with Glysious’ proprietary transdermal drug delivery system, renowned for its effectiveness, comfort, and convenience.
COPENHAGEN, Denmark, April 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Tetra Pharm Technologies and Glysious are pleased to announce a strategic collaboration aimed at developing a ground-breaking transdermal drug delivery system complementing several of Tetra Pharm Technologies’ pipeline candidates. The joint invention aims to revolutionize transdermal release of “difficult-to-formulate” compounds targeting the endocannabinoid system.

Tetra Pharm Technologies has focused intensively on formulation expertise, that is, how the molecules are effectively integrated with a drug delivery system to reach their desired targets. Glysious has worked rigorously on the development of an adhesive patch for transdermal drug delivery since the company’s incorporation in 2020.
“The Glysious technology enables precision, sustained dosing, and allows for a high drug load and effective emptying of patches. The transdermal patches remain in place and are very comfortable and convenient to use, resulting in improved patient compliance. However, we have identified challenges with standard formulation strategies, not providing acceptable drug release due to shortcomings of the formulation matrix”, says Professor, Dr.Techn. Anne Ladegaard Skov, Chief Scientific Officer, Glysious.
Back in 2023 Glysious and Tetra Pharm Technologies performed early in-vitro feasibility tests, integrating Tetra Pharma Technologies’ proprietary enabling technology for delivery of poorly soluble compounds with Glysious’ patch.
Dr. Morten Allesø, Chief Scientific Officer, Tetra Pharm Technologies, adds: “Although both parties were aware of the uniqueness of our respective technologies, we were positively surprised to find a five-fold increase in performance of our combination product compared to conventional formulation technologies. This is truly remarkable, and we consider it our shared obligation to further advance this technology to the benefit of the patients.”
The objectives of the collaboration include conducting comprehensive in-vitro and in-vivo studies to evaluate the performance and efficacy of the combined drug delivery system. Additionally, Tetra Pharm Technologies and Glysious plan to pursue a common patent for the joint invention, ensuring that their innovative technology remains protected and exclusive.
“We are excited to collaborate with the innovative team in Tetra Pharm Technologies on this transdermal drug delivery system paving the way for commercialization and scaling of the Glysious technology within the pharma segment”, says Stina Bjerg Nielsen, Chief Executive Officer, Glysious.
Martin Rose, Chief Executive Officer, Tetra Pharm Technologies, concludes: “The collaboration represents a unique opportunity to harness the synergies between our respective technologies. By combining our expertise, we aim to develop a transdermal drug delivery system that offers superior efficacy, convenience, and patient compliance, supporting several of our pipeline programs”.
As part of the collaboration, the partners will exchange expertise, knowledge, and resources. In addition, Tetra Pharm Technologies and Glysious will conduct joint research, experiments, and tests as required for the development of a joint patent. The scope of the collaboration is focused on disease indications such as pain, sleep disorders, and appetite regulation.
