Swiss Medical Weekly Chooses Xpublisher for JATS XML-Based Publications
28.2.2023 17:09:00 EET | Business Wire | Press release
Xpublisher is the new publishing system for medical journal Swiss Medical Weekly (SMW). Working with Xpublisher enables SMW to publish JATS XML-based scientific articles online swiftly and reliably.
Swiss Medical Weekly uses Xpublisher
By choosing Xpublisher, the journal is pursuing a consistent XML and content-first approach to preparing media-independent content and automating its publication. The software’s integrated Xeditor assists the editorial team in formatting scientific articles based on the JATS XML article authoring schema. Xpublisher then facilitates a conversion of the XML data, customized for SMW, into an HTML format, which SMW uses for online publication through the CMS "Open Journal Systems" (OJS). “In parallel with migrating our website to Open Journal Systems, we were very interested in establishing an XML-first workflow based on the JATS format. We have analyzed several solutions and are absolutely convinced by Xpublisher and Xeditor. With the help of the Xpublisher GmbH team, we designed a customized system that clearly maps our processes and helps us to create all our articles in valid JATS XML. Since Xpublisher provided a JATS format, we not only imported the content, we also imported the metadata of every single previous article in our extensive archive into OJS completely automatically,” reports a pleased Dr. Natalie Marty, managing director of the SMW supporting association. The Xpublisher editorial system is available as SaaS in a highly secure cloud environment.
About Swiss Medical Weekly
Founded in 1871, the Swiss Medical Weekly is a medical journal with a long tradition. The SMW is a pioneer of the Diamond Open Access model. Even before the publication of the Berlin Declaration on Open Access, the journal had already introduced free open online access to all published articles, without charging authors publication fees. The articles are reviewed according to strict scientific criteria and published regularly online. The journal is published by the non-profit organization “Trägerverein Swiss Medical Weekly,” which aims to enable and advance publishing based on the Diamond model.

Arini, an alternative asset manager with $22 billion in assets under management as of 31 August 2026, today announces the final close of Arini Direct Lending Fund I. The Fund and related vehicles are targeting deployment of over $4 billion, including anticipated leverage, making it among the largest debut European direct lending funds ever raised. Arini has built a sizeable initial portfolio throughout the fundraise, focusing on senior secured loans to borrowers demonstrating recurring and underwritable cash flow profiles and operating in industries with limited risk of disruption. Total deployment for the strategy is now approaching $2 billion across a range of sectors and geographies, alongside founder-led, family-owned and sponsor-backed businesses. This scale of deployment, in conjunction with Arini’s highly selective underwriting standards, demonstrates the depth of the European middle market opportunity set.

Skechers Wins Major Victory Against Kizik in Patent Infringement Suit21.10.2026 10:00:00 EEST | Press release
Skechers U.S.A., Inc. (“Skechers”), the third largest footwear company in the world and leader in hands-free footwear technology, announced today that it won a major legal and commercial victory in a patent infringement lawsuit filed by Fast IP, LLC (“Kizik”) against Skechers before the Unified Patent Court (“UPC”) in Munich. Skechers, the market leader in hands-free footwear, sells thousands of styles of hands-free shoes worldwide under its Slip-ins and Swift Fit trademarks. In 2025, Kizik sued Skechers at the UPC for alleged patent infringement involving four of its thousands of hands-free styles. Skechers won on three of the four styles, with the fourth being a minor and commercially insignificant style for Skechers. In its ruling, the Munich Court stated that Kizik’s infringement claims are “largely unfounded.” Skechers’ leading hands-free footwear position globally is the result of its product innovation, transforming the century-old idea of hands-free footwear into a true modern

Okomera, a TechBio company pioneering personalized cancer care through a proprietary technology platform combining tumor mini-avatars, microfluidics, and AI-powered imaging, today announced the signing of a commercial agreement with Servier, an independent international pharmaceutical group, to use its technology in the development of new cancer treatments.
