HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 29 May 2025 – Hong Kong-based Agilis Robotics has reached a major milestone in surgical innovation with the successful completion of the world’s first robotic-assisted en bloc resection of bladder tumour (ERBT) in patients. This clinical trial, conducted with The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), highlights the Intilume™ System’s potential to improve precision and safety in minimally invasive surgeries. Pictured with the Intilume™ System (from left) Professor Kwok Ka-wai, Co-Founder of Agilis Robotics and Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Automation Engineering at CUHK, Professor Ng Chi-fai, Tzu Leung Ho Professor of Urology, and Dr Peter Chiu Ka-fung, Associate Professor in the Division of Urology. The trial, conducted since December 2022, involved eight patients with bladder tumours. All procedures achieved complete tumour removal, and six patients who completed 30-day post-surgery observations showed satisfactory recovery. Two patients remain under observation, with all participants discharged within 1–2 days. The Intilume™ System The Intilume™ System is a robotic surgical platform designed to improve precision and stability in minimally invasive procedures. Featuring two dextrous and miniaturised robotic arms (2.8mm–3.5mm in diameter), it enables accurate en bloc tumour resections in confined spaces. Its intuitive controls can reduce reliance on manual dexterity, shorten the learning curve, and enhance outcomes for complex procedures like ERBT. Conventional resection loop used to perform bladder tumour resection (left) versus the pair of flexible robotic instruments developed by Agilis Robotics (right). Addressing Bladder Cancer Treatment Challenges Bladder cancer is among the 10 most common cancers globally, with 75% of cases being non-muscle-invasive. ERBT is more effective than conventional transurethral resection (TURBT) in reducing recurrence but requires high surgical expertise and carries bleeding and bladder perforation risks. The Intilume™ System improves stability and precision, minimizing these risks. Dr. Peter CHIU Ka-fung, Associate Professor in CUHK’s Division of Urology, remarked: “The robotic system increases the stability of ERBT operations, reducing the risks of bleeding and perforation, and enhancing surgical precision. It helps lower the risk of recurrence due to residual tumour tissue and speed up patient recovery. Future Applications The Intilume™ System has potential applications beyond bladder cancer, including gastrointestinal, prostate, uterine, and biliary surgeries. Its compatibility with standard endoscopes and adaptable design makes it a versatile tool across various specialties. This milestone underscores Agilis Robotics’ commitment to advancing precision in minimally invasive surgery.

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 29 May 2025 – In trading, success greatly depends on the ability to take a step back from a situation and assess it without bias. This becomes much easier when understanding of financial markets is not clouded by overly optimistic or unrealistic expectations carried into each trading session. Octa, a globally regulated broker since 2011, breaks down some expectations traders build up when starting trading and explains why these starting points are better left behind. Expectation #1: All brokers offer transparent conditions Depending on their experience with various financial services, some traders may naturally assume that what they see in a broker’s ad is precisely what they will get when engaging with this broker. Reality: Unfortunately, not every broker diligently applies the fees and conditions specified in their marketing communications. What’s more, in some cases, a new trader may encounter hidden costs that were not specified in the broker’s terms and conditions. In the same vein, other opaque brokers’ practices, like introducing additional costs in case of market turmoil, may transpire over time. To ensure a broker is trustworthy, it is important to review independent online feedback before making an initial deposit. Octa also recommends starting with a modest sum and ensuring the spreads and fees are what is expected. Another factor that significantly contributes to a broker’s reliability is extensive market experience and global reach. For example, Octa uses its successful track record of more than 14 years across multiple regions to ensure fast order execution, secure data processing, and better quotes for traders. Expectation #2: All brokers provide instant withdrawals When starting to engage with a financial broker, an emerging trader may assume that withdrawing their gains is always as fast and easy as making a minor cash transaction during regular business hours. Reality: Withdrawal time depends on the broker, varying from several minutes to several weeks. Octa’s surveys show that up to 50% of traders have experienced serious issues with cash withdrawals, such as being unable to make the transaction through a preferred payment channel or facing unexpected fees. As a globally regulated and trusted broker, Octa recommends carefully reading online reviews first to verify that the vast majority of a broker’s clients are happy with their withdrawals. Testing a broker’s withdrawal process before depositing a larger amount can help confirm that the broker adheres strictly to its stated terms and conditions without introducing hidden costs. On its part, Octa draws from its experience in engaging with various payment systems worldwide to provide an efficient, fast, and reliable withdrawal mechanism. Expectation #3: 90% of success is finding a good strategy When forming their perception of financial markets, many traders rely way too heavily on social media and advertising content. For example, internet gurus often promote ‘winning’ strategies that are supposed to pretty much guarantee consistent profits. Reality: Any strategy, no matter how time-relevant and sophisticated, requires customisation and backtesting. Financial markets are constantly changing—albeit according to certain historical patterns—and seasoned traders are always looking for news and insights. This way, they can timely fine-tune their strategy and take advantage of major market fluctuations. To sum up, every strategy needs to be adjusted to specific market conditions, timeframes, and instruments. Mindlessly copying strategies is a recipe for failure. The most significant mismatch between expectation and reality in trading is underestimating some less-than-obvious nuances that must be taken into account to maximise potential. Customising a trading strategy to suit specific market conditions and selecting a reliable broker with fair and transparent terms represents a decisive step toward achieving more consistent results. ___ Disclaimer: This content is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, a recommendation, or an offer to engage in any investment activity.

Aspire users can now offer credit card payments for invoices and through payment links, providing greater flexibility, ease and convenience to their customers. SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 29 May 2025 – Aspire, the leading all-in-one finance platform for businesses, has integrated with Stripe, a leading global financial infrastructure platform to offer businesses more ways to receive payments—faster and seamlessly. This empowers businesses across Asia with more flexible payment solutions, allowing them to receive payments globally through credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. Aspire Integrates with Stripe to Help Businesses Get Paid 2x Faster Financial flexibility is a top priority for businesses, particularly in the B2B space, where payment cycles can often be lengthy. With the rise in adoption of virtual cards, 64% of businesses expect the ability to pay for their purchases online. Research shows that businesses that do not accept card payments experience an average revenue loss of 4.6%, highlighting a critical need for diverse payment options. Aspire’s integration with Stripe aims to address this key gap by allowing Aspire users to enable credit card as well as local payments like Google Pay, Apple Pay, GrabPay, and WeChat Pay from customers directly for invoices and through payment links. This enables businesses to provide flexibility, convenience, and an overall easier payment experience for their customers. Additionally, new businesses can start accepting card payments immediately via Aspire, eliminating the need to invest in building a website or setting up complex payment infrastructures. Furthermore, the integration significantly improves settlement times. Aspire customers will now be able to access their funds as fast as three days, compared to the standard seven days. This enhanced speed and flexibility allow businesses to better manage cash flow, maintain financial stability, and reinvest in their operations with confidence. “At Aspire, we are constantly looking for new ways to help businesses grow faster and operate more efficiently,” said Andrea Baronchelli, CEO and founder of Aspire. “This partnership with Stripe aims to address two critical pain points – speed and flexibility. Together, we are removing the friction of money, empowering businesses to focus on what they do best: growing and scaling their operations.” “Small and medium businesses make up over 97% of all businesses in APAC and are the lifeblood of any country’s economy. Working together, Aspire and Stripe helps ensure that SMBs fully benefit from cutting edge technology to enjoy seamless and flexible payment solutions that accelerate their cashflow, so they can succeed in today’s competitive landscape,” said Paul Harapin, Stripe’s Chief Revenue Officer in Asia Pacific. This marks a significant step towards Aspire’s mission to empower global businesses with the financial tools they need to thrive in the digital economy. By integrating Stripe’s advanced payment technology, Aspire continues to strengthen its all-in-one financial platform, making it easier for businesses globally to manage payments, improve cash flow, and scale operations effortlessly.
