TreviPay announces the launch of its Pay by Invoice solution for Visa-issuing banks, enabling issuers to capture a greater share of the $58 trillion North American B2B payments market. Through this collaboration with Visa, a world leader in digital payments, TreviPay’s order-to-cash automation technology combines with Visa’s commercial payment capabilities to help issuers move fragmented B2B spend into strategic, issuer-financed, invoice-based transactions. A Murphy Research study, found 26% of corporate payments are still made with checks or rely on manual legacy ACH processes. The study also shows 78% of global B2B buyers need customization or control in their payments and invoicing workflows, with 61% preferring to pay on net terms. Pay by Invoice helps banks meet these expectations by providing suppliers with early payment (generally within two days of invoicing) while enabling buyers to settle on negotiated terms such as 30, 60, or 90 days.

Agendia, Inc., a leader in precision oncology for breast cancer, today announced that the updated NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology1 (NCCN Guidelines®) now recognize that MammaPrint® + BluePrint® can help identify a subset of hormone receptor positive, HER2-negative (HR+/HER2–) early-stage breast cancer (EBC) patients most likely to benefit from anthracycline-based chemotherapy. “I am delighted that oncologists finally have a way to identify HR+/HER2- early breast cancer patients who will benefit from anthracycline therapy," said Joyce A.

Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE: PM) today released a new white paper, “Human Cognition: The Next Frontier?”, inviting leaders across business, policy, and academia to join a global conversation on the evolving role of human cognition as artificial intelligence transforms work, society, and the economy. The white paper explores how human capabilities such as - critical thinking, creativity and adaptability - are poised to become the “superskill” of the future, driving progress in an era of human-machine collaboration. As AI automates routine tasks and augments knowledge work, PMI argues that nurturing and protecting cognitive capacity will be essential for organizations seeking to remain resilient and relevant.
