Un cas d’entreprise exceptionnel pour la transformation numérique 2020-2021 : Centre de données FusionDC de China Mobile

SHENZHEN, Chine, 16 novembre 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Lors de la conférence annuelle du marché des technologies de l’information (IT) 2021, organisée par CCID Consulting, le Centre de données FusionDC de China Mobile (Shaanxi) – construit à l’aide de la solution de centre de données modulaire préfabriquée de nouvelle génération de Huawei – a été nommé cas d’entreprise exceptionnel pour la transformation numérique 2020 – 2021. Inclus dans la liste des technologies de l’information de nouvelle génération 2020-2021 publiée par CCID Consulting, ce prix était l’un des quatre que les produits, solutions et déploiements des centres de données Huawei ont reçus, compte tenu des avantages de l’entreprise en matière d’architecture technique et de modèles commerciaux.

En tant que base intelligente de la transformation numérique, le nouveau Centre de données FusionDC de China Mobile (Shaanxi) promeut le développement des technologies de l’information et des communications (TIC) dans la province du Shaanxi et dans la région du nord-ouest de la Chine au sens large, soutenant de nouvelles avancées scientifiques et technologiques ainsi que le développement de l’économie et de la culture au sens large.

China Mobile (Shaanxi) FusionDC Data Center

La solution de centre de données modulaire préfabriquée de nouvelle génération de Huawei intègre une gamme complète de technologies innovantes, notamment l’utilisation étendue de l’intelligence artificielle (IA), une conception modulaire préfabriquée et une gestion entièrement numérique du cycle de vie. Tous les sous-systèmes principaux, des modules informatiques et d’alimentation aux plates-formes de contrôle de la température et de gestion intelligente, sont pré-intégrés et testés en usine, réalisant ainsi une convergence complète. Ce style de construction raccourcit considérablement les délais de construction, réduisant le processus complet du lancement à la livraison en service, à seulement six mois. Bénéficiant de l’approche unique de Huawei en matière de construction de centres de données, alliant intelligence et préfabrication — souvent qualifiée d’intelligente + préfabriquée— le Centre de données FusionDC de China Mobile (Shaanxi) est non seulement intelligent mais aussi vert : la consommation d’énergie est réduite au minimum et l’efficacité d’utilisation de l’énergie (PUE) est améliorée de 8 %. Cela se traduit par d’importantes économies d’énergie (57,6 millions de kWh d’électricité) sur tout le cycle de vie du centre de données, réduisant les émissions de carbone de 27 000 tonnes, ce qui équivaut à planter 37 000 arbres.

De plus, une solution de refroidissement par évaporation indirecte maximise l’utilisation de sources de refroidissement naturelles et gratuites, ramenant la PUE annuelle à moins de 1,25, économisant ainsi de l’énergie par rapport à une solution d’eau glacée traditionnelle. Ailleurs, une solution de module d’alimentation intégrée améliore l’efficacité de l’alimentation et de la distribution d’énergie de plus de 3 %, réduisant les coûts, améliorant l’efficacité et optimisant les processus.

Le Centre de données FusionDC de China Mobile (Shaanxi) intègre également plusieurs fonctionnalités d’IA, notamment la maintenance prédictive, l’optimisation de l’efficacité énergétique en temps réel, ainsi que l’efficacité des opérations et de la maintenance (O&M) et l’utilisation des ressources.

Avec ses partenaires, Huawei s’engage à innover et à construire des centres de données simples, écologiques, intelligents et fiables.

Huawei Global Oil & Gas Summit 2021: Intelligent Oil & Gas Fields Solution

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates, Nov. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — On November 14, Huawei hosted its Global Oil & Gas Summit 2021 in Abu Dhabi, themed “Drive Data to Barrel, Embrace Intelligence to Grow”. At the summit, Huawei launched a new solution – Intelligent Oil & Gas Fields – designed to help oil and gas enterprises to go digital. The solution covers several aspects of digitalization, including campus security, production inspection and predictive maintenance. Using data and intelligence technologies, Huawei is furthering digital transformation and intelligent development across the industry.

The world agrees that energy and digital transformation are essential for the planet’s future. Lv Gongxun, Former Vice President of PetroChina, CNPC, pointed out that digital transformation of the oil and gas industry will bring innovative service, business model, and management models to the industry.

Carbon neutrality signals both new challenges and opportunities for the global energy industry. In his opening speech, Robin (Yongping) Lu, Executive Vice President of Global Energy Business Unit of Huawei Enterprise BG, highlighted the importance of integrating energy and digital transformation to achieve carbon neutrality. To do so, energy and technology industries need to collaborate, reinforcing each other’s strengths and exploring various industry scenarios.

Huawei launched the Intelligent Oil & Gas Fields solution to help the oil and gas industry address challenges.

At the summit, Huawei and G2K Group launched the Intelligent Oil & Gas Fields solution, presented by Robin (Yongping) Lu and Christen Bear, Managing Director, Regional Head GCC at G2K Group. The architecture of the solution consists of four layers: industrial terminal, IoT network, digital platform, and intelligent application.

The solution aims to help oil and gas companies cope with the risks and costs, address data silos, as well as quickly respond to emergencies and build robust information security systems. Based on the solution architecture, Huawei will continuously enhance digital platforms and production service applications, implement data interconnection through the IoT, and drive flattened management transformation. Huawei focuses on security and efficiency requirements, helping increase reserve and production, improve efficiency, reduce costs and carbon emissions, and ensure operational safety.

Huawei’s oil and gas all-scenario solution focuses on the collaboration of all fields in the industry.

At the summit, Huawei also demonstrated its all-scenario solutions and technical capabilities in upstream exploration, development and production, midstream pipeline asset management, and downstream refining and chemical sales.

The widespread adoption of such technologies as cloud computing, big data, AI, and 5G makes it easier to discover potential data value, improving the E2E efficiency of oil companies in oil exploration, development, production, storage, transportation, refining, and sales. Wu Shuhong, Secretary of CNPC AI Research Center, and Deng Xili, Principle Lead, G&G (RCM), CNPC RIPED, shared how Huawei’s intelligent E&P solution uses cloud, AI, and big data to quickly and accurately process seismic data, identify oil and gas reservoirs, and diagnose working conditions of pumping wells. We can explore more value from “silent data” and “useless data”

At the same time, migrating mission-critical services to the cloud helps resolve common pain points, such as slow response, high cost, and low efficiency of oil and gas field infrastructure. Zhang Tiegang, Former Deputy Chief Engineer of the Exploration and Development Research Institute of Daqing Oilfield, explained the advantages of the Intelligent Oil & Gas Fields solution in real-life scenarios. Using Huawei’s cloud computing capabilities, Daqing Oilfield processed over 22,000 square kilometers of seismic data in 2020, which is more than twice the original data processing capability.

Huawei builds an open ecosystem and works with partners to create more value.

Collaboration is key for extending Huawei’s solutions. Huawei has upgraded its partner system and collaborated with different types of partners. David (Zhengyu) Shi, President of Enterprise Business Group in Huawei Middle East, noted the importance of shared efforts by customers, partners, and Huawei to promote innovation. To this end, Huawei has built a partnership service system to support E2E digital transformation and develop innovative solutions.

Meanwhile, Christen Bear shared G2K Group’s experience working with Huawei. She showcased the innovative solutions that the two companies have developed thus far, and stated that there will be more opportunities for collaboration in the future, as they continued to bring connectivity and intelligence to customers and lead new standards for digital transformation.

As a leading global provider of ICT infrastructure and smart devices, Huawei provides leading-performance hardware products to help oil and gas companies build agile and reliable networks and data centers. In the future, Huawei will continue to focus on the oil and gas industry, consolidate partners’ capabilities, further develop scenario-based solutions, and work with customers to create new value together.

The World Optical Fibre & Cable Virtual Conference 2021 held online

During the event, global optical communication firm YOFC joins its peers in embracing development opportunities of the gigabit era and witnessing the next stage of growth of the optical sector

WUHAN, China, Nov. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The 7th edition of the World Optical Fibre & Cable Virtual Conference, a premiere event in the global optical fibre and cable sector, was held online from November 16-18, 2021, Beijing time, bringing together numerous telecom operators, optical fibre and cable manufacturers as well as upstream and downstream producers across the global industry chain. As a leading manufacturer of optical fiber preforms, optical fibers and optical fiber cables with global reach, Yangtze Optical Fibre and Cable Joint Stock Limited Company (hereinafter referred to as “YOFC”, Stock Code: 601869.SH, 06869.HK), once again participated in the global event alongside a number of well-known international firms, including Corning Inc., Prysmian Group, OFS and Nokia Shanghai Bell. During the event, YOFC executive director and president Zhuang Dan delivered a keynote speech themed Embracing Development Opportunities of the Gigabit Era and Witnessing the Next Stage of Growth of the Optical Industry.

“Serving as the cornerstone of the digital economy which has become a new driver of global economic growth, high-quality optical fibre networks have played an increasingly important role in connecting various industries and helping build smart cities. At the same time, the Covid-19 pandemic has fueled an increasing demand worldwide for fixed broadband. The optical fibre and cable sector is rapidly entering a new stage of growth with fixed broadband transitioning to gigabit optical networks across China,” said Mr. Zhuang at the conference. “Going forward, with the gradual easing of the pandemic, the global market is on track to see explosive growth in large-scale broadband projects. The sector is expected to experience a capacity shortage over the next three to five years as a result of a combination of industrial restructuring caused by the pandemic, the accelerated phasing out of outdated production facilities and the strengthening of the supply side structural reform. At present, driven by rising prices, the sector is booming. Combined with the significantly shortened period of moving an innovation in technology to the application stage, new opportunities have opened up for optical fibre and cable manufacturers that have the key technologies in place.”

“Based on a corporate philosophy that focuses on innovation, branding and quality, YOFC is on track to embrace the gigabit era by driving the next stage of growth of the optical fibre and cable sector. Most importantly, the firm is building core competencies through independent innovation. To this end, it has been strengthening its development and research efforts around the process technology for optical fibre preforms, G.654.E fibres with ultra-low attenuation, multicore fibres, FTTR solutions, Gigabit optical interconnect products and specialty fibres while expanding the application of its new solutions across various industries,” added Mr. Zhuang. “Secondly, YOFC is leveraging technological innovation to build advantages of its branding by strengthening its efforts in branding and creating a complete X-Band family of premium optical fibres. Lastly, the company is creating products of excellent quality with a focus on pursuing perfection. This is achieved by complying with the standards with respect to the China, Asian and European Quality Awards and fulfilling YOFC’s ongoing commitment to quality, service and reputation. In addition, the firm plans to further the implementation of its international roadmap by continuously expanding its global marketing network and providing premium products and services to 5G and F5G customers worldwide. To capitalize on the new opportunities presented by the global optical sector, YOFC remains committed to building an all-optical neural network based on fibre to anywhere, including all-optical communications, data centers, power generation facilities, industrial applications, smart homes, rail transit and education.”

In partnership with CRU, YOFC first brought this global conference to Asia by holding the Asia-Pacific Optical Fibre and Cable Conference in China’s Optics Valley in 2015. This was followed by their joint holding of the World Optical Fibre and Cable Conference in 2016 and 2017 before YOFC continued its participation in the event as a Jade sponsor in 2018, 2019 and 2020. 2021 marks the seventh year that the optical communication firm has been deeply involved in the CRU World Optical Fibre and Cable Conference at which it engaged in dialogues with global giants on the development trends of the industry, fully demonstrating CRU’s high recognition of YOFC’s leadership in the global optical fibre and cable space.

Inscrições em Andamento para o Ensaio ADG20 STAMP para Tratamento da COVID-19; Análise de Eficácia Provisória Planejada Prevista para o Segundo Trimestre de 2022 em Apoio a um EUA em potencial

WALTHAM, Mass., Nov. 16, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — A Adagio Therapeutics, Inc., (Nasdaq: ADGI) uma empresa biofarmacêutica de estágio clínico focada na descoberta, desenvolvimento e comercialização de soluções com base em anticorpos para combate de doenças infecciosas com potencial pandêmico, atualizou seu principal programa de anticorpos COVID-19, o ADG20, bem como a demonstração financeira do segundo trimestre de 2021. O ADG20 é um candidato a produto de anticorpo monoclonal investigacional projetado para fornecer atividade neutralizante ampla e potente contra o SARS-CoV-2, incluindo variantes de preocupação, para a prevenção e tratamento da COVID-19.

“O ADG20 continua a ser o único anticorpo monoclonal no desenvolvimento em estágio final com potencial de oferecer uma combinação única de potência, amplitude de neutralização em variantes de preocupação conhecidas do SARS-CoV-2, bem como vírus adicionais do tipo SARS com potencial de pandemia, além de proteção durável contra a COVID-19 por até um ano. Além disso, a injeção única evita os inconvenientes associados à administração por IV ou injeções múltiplas”, disse Lynn Connolly, M.D., Ph.D., diretora médica da Adagio. “O mundo continua tendo uma série de dificuldades para enfrentar plenamente a crise da COVID-19. Alternativas ou suplementos a vacinas para a prevenção da COVID-19 são necessários para indivíduos imunocomprometidos e para quem continuem hesitando em tomar a vacina ou vacinar seus filhos. Certas populações de pacientes podem não ser candidatas ideais para opções de tratamento oral emergentes devido a preocupações de adesão, comorbidades ou possíveis interações medicamentosas. Com base nos seus atributos conjuntos, o ADG20 tem o potencial de ser uma alternativa diferenciada para a prevenção e tratamento da COVID-19 e atender às necessidades dessas populações. O nosso compromisso com seu avanço é inabalável.”

“Tivemos progressos significativos ao longo de 2021, e 2022 deve ser um ano histórico para a Adagio enquanto nos preparamos para possíveis EUAs para o ADG20 para a prevenção e tratamento da COVID-19”, disse Tillman Gerngross, Ph.D., cofundador e diretor executivo da Adagio. “Recentemente recebemos um feedback claro da FDA sobre uma estratégia de como fazer um EUA para o ADG20 para a prevenção da COVID-19 e iniciamos esforços para expandir nosso programa clínico para subconjuntos adicionais de pacientes, incluindo pessoas imunocomprometidos e crianças. Nossos esforços de prontidão comercial estão bem encaminhados e, com o nosso forte balanço patrimonial, estamos prontos para agir rapidamente para viabilizar o acesso a indivíduos que precisam de opções de prevenção e tratamento da COVID-19, quando a autorização e/ou aprovação for concedida.”

Destaques do Programa ADG20 COVID-19

Prevenção
A Adagio continua a aceitar inscrições de participantes adultos e adolescentes para o seu estudo clínico global de Fase 3 em andamento que avalia o ADG20 como prevenção para a COVID-19 nos ambientes de pré-exposição e exposição recentes.

  • A Adagio recebeu feedback da Food and Drug Administration (FDA) dos EUA sobre um pacote de dados necessário e um percurso para um EUA para a prevenção pré-exposição da COVID-19
  • A Adagio espera que o pacote de dados em apoio a um EUA para o ADG20 estará disponível no segundo trimestre de 2022, seguido pelo pedido à FDA previsto para o terceiro trimestre de 2022
  • A Adagio planeja adicionar uma nova coorte EVADE para avaliar o ADG20 como opção preventiva para indivíduos imunocomprometidos, com inscrição prevista para o primeiro trimestre de 2022
  • A Adagio também planeja iniciar um estudo de avaliação do ADG20 como um suplemento da vacina
  • Após discussão com a FDA, a Adagio preparou um plano para avaliar o ADG20 como opção preventiva para a população pediátrica, com um estudo em indivíduos entre dois e 11 anos de idade que deve ser iniciado em meados de 2022

Tratamento
A Adagio continua a aceitar inscrições de pacientes para o seu estudo clínico global de fase 2/3 em andamento, que avalia o ADG20 como tratamento para a COVID-19.

  • A Adagio está planejando modificar o design do estudo para expandir a população de pacientes em risco elegíveis para inscrição no STAMP
  • Com base nas inscrições do momento, a Adagio espera receber a avaliação do comitê de monitoramento de dados independente da Fase 2 no primeiro trimestre de 2022, e a análise de eficácia provisória no segundo trimestre de 2022 para um potencial apoio ao EUA

Apresentações de Dados Recentes do ADG20 no ISIRV-OMS e IDWeek2021

  • Recentes dados in vitro  demonstraram a atividade neutralizante retida do ADG20 contra um painel diversificado de variantes circulantes de SARS-CoV-2, incluindo as recém-surgidas variantes Lambda, Mu e Delta plus. Notavelmente, os resultados indicam que o ADG20 demonstrou atividade neutralizante potente contra todas as variantes preocupantes testadas do SARS-CoV-2, incluindo as com suscetibilidade reduzida a produtos de mAb atualmente disponíveis sob o EUA ou em desenvolvimento em estágio final.
  • Dados de uma avaliação de seis meses de um estudo com voluntários saudáveis em Fase 1 da Adagio, confirmaram a meia-vida prolongada do ADG20, que se aproximou de 100 dias, com base nos dados da dose de 300 mg IM administrada como uma única injeção. Além disso, 50% dos títulos de neutralização do vírus sérico aos seis meses após uma dose IM de 300 mg de ADG20 são semelhantes aos títulos de pico observados com a vacina mRNA-1273, mas excederam os obtidos com a série de vacinas AZD1222. O ADG20 foi bem tolerado e não apresentou eventos adversos (AEs) ou AEs graves relacionados ao medicamento do estudo, e nem reações no local da injeção ou de hipersensibilidade foram relatadas durante o acompanhamento mínimo de três meses em todas as coortes.
  • Em suporte à seleção de dose para os ensaios clínicos globais STAMP e EVADE de Fase 2/3 da Adagio, a empresa modificou um modelo farmacocinético de base fisiológica de corpo inteiro (QSP/PBPK) de sistemas quantitativos existentes para caracterizar melhor a PK de mAbs de meia-vida prolongada no soro e locais principais de replicação viral no trato respiratório. O modelo da Adagio previu adequadamente a priori a PK sérica do ADG20 observada em primatas não humanos (NHPs) e humanos. O modelo foi ainda otimizado com base nos dados do ensaio clínico de Fase 1 da Adagio e depois aplicado para seleção da dose para STAMP e EVADE, e por último proporcionou informações para a seleção da dose IM para os estudos.

Propriedade Intelectual

Em 29 de outubro de 2021, o Escritório de Marcas e Patentes dos Estados Unidos enviou para a empresa uma notificação de permissão de um pedido de patente para proteção do ADG20 nos EUA.

Demonstração Financeira do Terceiro Trimestre de 2021

  • Em 30 de setembro de 2021, a Adagio tinha caixa, equivalentes de caixa e títulos negociáveis de US$ 666,3 milhões, que devem apoiar os planos operacionais atuais da empresa em 2023.
  • As despesas com pesquisa e desenvolvimento, incluindo pesquisa e desenvolvimento em processo para o terceiro trimestre de 2021, foram de US$49,4 milhões.
  • As despesas com vendas, gerais e administrativas para o terceiro trimestre de 2021 foram de US$11,1 milhões.
  • O Prejuízo Líquido do terceiro trimestre foi de US60.4 milhões, ou US$0,98 por ação.

Sobre o ADG20
O ADG20, um anticorpo monoclonal em investigação direcionado à proteína Spike do SARS-CoV-2 e coronavírus relacionados, está passando por testes clínicos para a prevenção e tratamento da COVID-19, a doença causada pelo SARS-CoV-2. O ADG20 foi projetado e criado para ter uma atividade de neutralização ampla de alta potência contra SARS-CoV-2 e sarbecovírus de clado 1 adicionais, concentrando-se em um epítopo altamente conservado no domínio de ligação ao receptor. O ADG20 foi projetado para fornecer uma meia-vida prolongada de proteção durável. O ADG20 demonstrou atividade neutralizante potente contra o vírus SARS-CoV-2 original, todas as variantes preocupantes do SARS-CoV-2 conhecidas, e vírus semelhantes a SARS adicionais em estudos pré-clínicos. O ADG20 é administrado em ensaios clínicos por meio de uma injeção intramuscular. Até o momento, o ADG20 tem sido bem tolerado em um estudo de Fase 1 sem sinais de problemas de segurança identificados em um acompanhamento mínimo de três meses em todas as coortes. O ADG20 não foi aprovado para uso em nenhum país e a sua segurança e eficácia ainda não foram estabelecidas.
