Sharps Technology's Global Expansion: Achieving Key Milestones To Strengthen Market Position

Benzinga

by Kenneth Adams, Benzinga Sharps Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: STSS), an innovative medical device and pharmaceutical packaging company, and Roncadelle Operations, an Italian-based driving force in the development of novel medical drug delivery devices announced a collaboration aimed at transforming the landscape of drug delivery systems worldwide. This strategic partnership encompasses a series of agreements and initiatives designed to enhance market access, drive collaboration and innovation and promote patient safety worldwide. The partnership commenced in mid-January with the signing of a Letter of Intent (LOI) between Sharps Technology and Roncadelle Operations to enter into a sales and marketing agreement that would enable Sharps and Roncadelle to cooperatively sell and distribute each other’s products to their respective areas of influence and expand Sharps’ American-based product market into Europe, the Middle East, Africa and the Asia-Pacific region. By mid-February Sharps began working with Owens & Minor, a leading global healthcare logistics supplier, to establish a 3PL and distribution network across North and South America for both the Sharps and Roncadelle lines of smart disposable safety syringes. “We are excited about this opportunity to collaborate with Roncadelle, a premier manufacturer of smart safety syringes and a leader in the development of drug delivery systems, to expand both our solution offerings in the U.S. and our reach into the world market,” commented Sharps Technology CEO Robert Hayes. “This agreement is very beneficial for both of our companies.” Sharps Technology specializes in the development and manufacturing of innovative drug delivery systems. The company’s Securegard and Sologard product lines focus on low-waste and ultra-low waste syringe technologies that incorporate both active safety features and World Health Organization-accredited reuse prevention measures. Roncadelle’s SafeR Retractable Safety Syringe and needles offer a passive safety system with both auto-disable and reuse prevention features. “Sharing our product portfolio gives our healthcare customers, from large pharmaceutical companies to startup biologics, access to a broad range of solutions and price points to match even their most challenging requirements. This will open up a completely new level of service to the market,” states Ben Scheu, Sharps’ Senior Director of Sales. Sharps reports that the synergy between Sharps and Roncadelle will bring together more than 30 established distribution points with Sharps’ new Owens & Minor partnerships to deliver products to the world healthcare market that stand for simplicity of use and are unparalleled in safety and patient protection, setting new global standards to safeguard people from infection and disease. The business alliance additionally potentially creates a very important player in advancing syringe market opportunities through the development of unique technologies such as prefilled syringes, needle guard systems, auto-injectors and injector pen devices. “It is exciting to see how well our companies complement each other and how we can leverage our combined relationships, expertise, and resources to build out our distribution network, enhance syringe safety around the world, and introduce novel drug delivery solutions to the healthcare industry,” said Robert Hayes, Sharps CEO. On February 21, 2024, Sharps Technology. announced that it was preparing to make the first shipment of its 1mL and 3mL Securegard smart safety syringe line to the Latin American healthcare market. Tapping into the growing interest in safety syringe technology in Latin America, the collaboration will make the Securegard syringe line available to hospitals, pharmacies and direct points of sale and will give healthcare networks access to utilizing the technology and firsthand experience with its real-world benefits. “We are building strategic partnerships within the entire Latin American distribution network to support region-wide efforts to improve medical safety and healthcare outcomes. While implementing wide-scale change can be challenging, we are well positioned to introduce Securegard to healthcare agencies and facilities across the region,” comments Robert Hayes, Sharps Technology CEO. “Based on prior studies, we are confident that once healthcare practitioners use Securegard syringes, they will want to continue to use them in their practice, leading to ongoing purchase orders.” Securegard syringes provide clinicians with an ultra-low waste drug delivery technology that incorporates active safety features as well as World Health Organization-accredited reuse prevention measures. These features maximize the amount of drug therapy that is available to patients while both protecting frontline healthcare workers from life-threatening needle stick injuries and protecting the public from the dangers of needle reuse. Securegard syringes offer a promising drug delivery solution for healthcare markets, facilities and providers by incorporating safety and reuse prevention features into their design. Moreover, the use of ultra-low waste syringe technology ensures that the maximum number of doses of needed drug therapies can be made available to the people who depend on them. On March 7, 2024, Sharps Technology and Roncadelle Operations signed a sales and distribution agreement to cooperatively sell and distribute each other’s products to their respective areas of influence. The agreement lays the groundwork for further collaboration between Sharps and Roncadelle to develop and manufacture next-generation drug delivery products. “We believe that this is just the beginning of Sharps’ collaboration with Roncadelle. It expands our footprint as a premier manufacturer and a distributor of smart safety syringes as well as a collaborative leader in the development of drug delivery systems for the world market,” commented Sharps Technology CEO Robert Hayes. “Sharing our product portfolio gives healthcare customers one-stop access to a broad range of delivery solutions and price points to match their needs and strictest requirements.” As part of the cooperative agreement, Sharps and Roncadelle intend to collaborate on the development of new drug delivery products. The need for innovative injection solutions is expected to grow over the next several years as injectables are the first choice for therapies as diverse as vaccines, biologics, weight loss and maintenance, ophthalmics, gene therapies and diabetes management. The collaboration between Sharps and Roncadelle potentially creates a very important player in advancing these market opportunities through the development of technologies such as prefilled syringes, needle guard systems, auto-injectors and injector pen devices. In light of the recent FDA safety communications concerning the use of syringes manufactured in China, the company believes that the market for safer syringes produced in the U.S. and Europe will grow at an accelerated rate.

Reflection Analytics’ Reflect Platform Named to the Prestigious WealthTech100 Ranking of the World’s Most Innovative Technology Providers

Reflection Analytics

Reflection Analytics, a technology company delivering ESG investment evaluation, reporting and advisory services, announced today that its Reflect software platform has been named to the prestigious WealthTech100 list of the world’s most innovative technology providers that are transforming the operations of investment firms, private banks and financial advisors. Reflect is the first and only platform for investor-focused ESG analysis, serving asset managers, financial advisors and investors/institutions across six key areas: advisory, due diligence, compliance, portfolio management, auditing and reporting. Reflect’s inclusion on the WealthTech 100 comes within Reflect’s first year as a compliance tool. “This recognition by the WealthTech100 is validation for Reflect,” said Jason Britton, founder and chief executive officer of Reflection Analytics. “The Names Rule requires funds generally aligned with ESG terms to have a minimum of 80 percent of its holding invested in what the average investor would consider the plain English meaning of those terms. Reflect is basically a lie detector that investors and fund managers can use to determine whether funds comply with that common-sense, truth-in-advertising standard.” Launched today by FinTech Global, a specialist research firm, The WealthTech100 shines a spotlight on the WealthTech companies that every stakeholder in the wealth management industry should know about. The finalists were picked by a panel of analysts and industry experts, and judges were tasked with reviewing a list of more than 1,300 companies, with FinTech Global providing detailed information on each company to aid the decision process. To make the list, the panel looked for companies that are helping address some of the biggest challenges and opportunities within wealth management. The list highlights the leading companies in areas such as client acquisition, financial planning, portfolio management and digital brokerage. "As the great wealth transfer takes place, wealth management firms are seeking ways to update their operations to meet the demands of future customers,” said FinTech Global director Richard Sachar. “While older generations preferred a human-touch, younger generations place quick, simple and digital processes at the top of their requirements. The WealthTech100 list provides senior decision-makers with a guide on the best vendors in the market and practical examples of how the latest AI advancements are transforming the investment industry.” Launched just two months after the SEC expanded Rule 35d-1, the “Names Rule,” to include ESG terms, Reflect is the market’s only “Names Rule"-compliant software, providing an investor-focused rating that scores companies across 250 data points in 18 ESG sub-themes while also offering asset managers a portfolio management tool to ensure continuous compliance. Under the SEC’s expanded rule, asset managers have 24 months from September 2023 to begin reporting on their alignment, demonstrating that 80% of their investments are in securities that reflect the terms in their name, or risk regulatory fines and fees. Unlike other ESG rating companies, which focus on only financial materiality and from the corporation’s management perspective, Reflect assesses companies from the perspective of an investor’s understanding and reasonable expectations. Beyond its use as a compliance tool, Reflect is designed to support values-based investing. The Reflect platform allows advisors, investors and institutions to review portfolios based on ESG components that are most important to them while also identifying types of companies to avoid, such as those associated with weapons or alcohol. After analyzing an investment portfolio, Reflect provides a real-time, percentage-match score, rating investments across 18 sub-themes ranging from “not aligned” to “strongly aligned.” Reflect can also weigh an existing portfolio against a curated list of investments, allowing individuals and institutions to compare assets via a side-by-side analysis. A full list of the WealthTech100 and detailed information about each company is available to download for free at www.WealthTech100.com. About Reflection Analytics Reflection Analytics’ patent-pending software—Reflect—is the only ESG ratings tool designed to serve asset managers, financial advisors and investors/institutions across six key areas: advisory, due diligence, compliance, portfolio management, auditing and reporting. Unlike other ESG software, which are reliant on rating methodologies rooted in the corporate perspective, Reflect analyzes 250 data points from an investor-focused viewpoint. As the industry’s only “Names Rule-compliant tool,” Reflect helps portfolio managers meet new compliance standards, with the SEC’s expansion of the “Names Rule” to include ESG funds taking effect in less than two years. Reflect maintains comprehensive self-reported and third-party data on 6,500 companies, or 98% of the global market cap. For more information, visit: www.reflectvalues.com.

Crypto Lending 101: Making The Most Of Your Idle Digital Assets

Ledn

By Austin DeNoce, Benzinga As the cryptocurrency market evolves, so, too, do the financial services built around it. Cryptocurrency owners can now even generate passive income through lending and securing loans using their cryptocurrency assets as collateral. However, in an industry notorious for bankruptcies and fraud, carefully navigating the complexities inherent to such financial services is extremely important. While there is no shortage of lucrative opportunities in crypto, balancing those opportunities with the safety of your assets should always be a top priority. Picking the right services or platforms is a major step in the right direction, but it’s also useful to familiarize yourself with the financial products you’re considering so you can make the most informed decision that doesn’t jeopardize the safety of your assets. What Is Crypto Lending? Crypto lending falls into two main categories: earning interest by lending out your crypto and using your crypto as collateral for loans. The former allows crypto holders to earn attractive yields on their assets, ranging from a few basis points to double-digit annual returns in many cases. The latter allows crypto holders access to liquidity via loans at competitive rates without selling their cryptocurrency assets and creating a taxable event. Essentially, crypto lending platforms allow you to deposit your crypto assets to earn additional returns over time from those borrowing your funds, or you can be on the other side of the transaction, getting access to dollars or another currency without selling your crypto, which can provide a lot of flexibility. Crypto Savings Accounts As one example, crypto lending platforms like Ledn.io offer Growth Accounts that enable cryptocurrency holders to earn up to 11% annual percentage yield (APY) on their BTC, ETH, USDC or USDT holdings (disclaimer: these products are not available in Canada or the USA). However, as mentioned previously, returns are just one part of the equation. The safety of your funds is also paramount, so Ledn prioritizes transparency and the selection of what it considers reliable digital assets, which isn’t always the case for other lending platforms in this space. Lending your assets generally opens you up to credit risk, which can quickly make attractive returns meaningless if things go south. Luckily, customers on platforms like Ledn can enjoy the peace of mind that comes with the company’s strict risk management policies, including a single-asset ring-fenced approach for its Growth Accounts, and its monthly Open Book Reports that offer insights into how the interest for its savings or Growth Accounts is generated. Crypto-Backed Loans Crypto loans are typically categorized into Centralized Finance (CeFi) and Decentralized Finance (DeFi) loans. CeFi loans are managed by centralized platforms like Ledn.io, which oversees the lending process, including interest rates and risk management. DeFi loans, on the other hand, operate on blockchain platforms through smart contracts without a central authority. Each type offers distinct advantages and risks, with CeFi providing a more regulated environment and DeFi offering more autonomy and potential for higher returns but also more complexity. Ledn.io provides crypto-backed loans that give you access to funds without selling your Bitcoin or Ethereum. You can use BTC or ETH as collateral to receive 50% loan-to-value loans, typically within 24 hours, with the freedom to repay anytime penalty-free. Loans are offered in USD, USDC or your local currency and start at a 12.4% annual interest rate. If you choose to go with a Ledn Custodied Loan, your collateral is held in custody with qualified custodians and/or banks and is not lent out to generate interest. Ledn.io’s crypto-backed loans require a minimum of $1,000 in BTC or ETH as collateral. To reassure customers, Ledn says it is the first digital asset lending platform to complete a Proof-of-Reserves Attestation where customers can confirm balances themselves using a hashed ID. Exploring The Opportunities For Your Crypto If you are interested in putting your crypto to work or exploring the various financial opportunities your crypto assets can provide, Ledn.io offers a compelling choice. Whether through earning passive income or securing loans, your idle crypto assets can open doors previously limited to the legacy financial system. With up to 11% APY on deposits, transparent operations and robust risk-mitigating measures, Ledn says it is at the forefront of making crypto lending both profitable and secure. Its emphasis on customer control, security and an open approach to risk management potentially makes it a valuable partner in the crypto lending space.

Ledn builds innovative financial products with a mission to make generational wealth more accessible through digital assets. The company issued Canada’s first bitcoin-backed loan in 2018 and has issued nearly $5B loans since.

Carbon RX Receives Approval from Pure Sky Carbon Registry

Carbon RX

Regina, SK – TheNewswire – April 3, 2024 – Carbon RX Inc (“Carbon RX”) is pleased to announce the approval of its inaugural nature-based Carbon Credit Project, "The Carbon RX Canadian Prairies Cropland Project," by the Pure Sky Registry, LLC (“Pure Sky”). This project, located on Treaty 4 Territory in Saskatchewan, Canada, is projected to sequester approximately 1.5 million tonnes of carbon over the 20-year project. Through the Pure Sky approval, the project provides quality carbon credits for international buyers in the voluntary carbon market supporting farming practices committed to carbon removals and reductions. "The approval of our project validates the importance of Canadian agriculture in the global carbon offset market," said Marty Seymour, CEO of Carbon RX and founding member of Pure Sky. "Agricultural practices are the ideal instrument to sequester carbon in the soil. Farmers are looking for ways to participate in the carbon markets through their regenerative practices and Pure Sky offers an ideal standard for this project." The project combines minimal tillage with reduced nitrogen fertilizer and fuel usage, enhancing soil carbon storage and decreasing greenhouse gas emissions. The unique nature of the project is the inclusion of First Nation and non-First Nation farmed lands.   "We are proud to have the Carbon RX Canadian Prairies Cropland Project as the first to receive our approval," commented Shidan Gouran, Co-Founder and Member of Pure Sky.

According to a 2023 report by Morgan Stanley, the voluntary carbon-offset market is projected to expand from about $2 billion in 2022 to approximately $100 billion by 2030 and $250 billion by 2050.
