Assisted reproductive technology (ART) is defined as the medical procedure used to address the infertility treatments for handling of eggs and embryo. This technique aims to remove the eggs from a woman's ovaries and further combine it with sperm in the in-vitro laboratory condition. After fertilization, the egg or embryo is transferred to the uterus of women. It alleviates the burden of infertility on a family and individual. In-vitro technology is one of the most common and advanced procedures, which are used for the infertility treatment. The ART includes gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT), frozen embryo transfer (FET), zygote intrafallopian transfer and in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer.

The global assisted reproductive technology market is majorly driven by an alarming increase in the prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome, rise in disposable income, surge in demand for in vitro-fertilization, advancement in the technology for novel ART, and a rise in awareness about IVF and surrogacy. According to Office on Women's Health (OWH), in 2019, it was reported that 1 in 10 women of childbearing age are diagnosed with PCOS, in the U.S. According to Center for Disease control and Prevention (CDC), it was reported that 6% to 12% of the U.S. women of reproductive age, having PCOS, were also diagnosed with infertility.

PCOS is one of the most common causes of female infertility, which surge the demand for assisted reproductive technology and drive the growth of the market. The rise in disposable income has assisted reproductive technology and drives the growth of the market. Furthermore, in February 2021, TMRW Life Sciences, announced the launch of the world's first automated Cryo specimen management solution for eggs and embryo, which are used in the IVF procedure. The TMRW platform is introduced in various fertility clinics in the U.S. launching the software enables management of the million embryos and eggs central to modern IVF.

Story continues

Increase in incidence of infertility cases and the surge in sedentary lifestyle are the major factors that drive the global assisted reproductive technology market. Moreover, the increase in prevalence of obesity significantly contributes toward the market growth, owing to obese person being more prone to infertility and uterine disorder. Rise in demand for in-vitro fertilization for effective treatment, and high success rate acts a key driving force of the global market.

Furthermore, governments are taking multiple initiatives to support healthcare information systems for development of advanced ART, which is expected to boost the market growth.

The Worldwide Assisted Reproductive Technology Industry is Expected to Reach $12 + Billion by 2030 - ResearchAndMarkets.com - Yahoo Finance

Methanes march from obscurity to center stage at the Glasgow climate summit reflects its growing recognition as an intensive global warming driver. President Joe Biden launched a Global Methane Pledge shortly before COP 26, securing dozens of national commitments to reduce global methane 30 percent from 2020 levels by 2030.

Methane is not, however, a new climate concern or a new arena for multi-national policy. Five years ago, American, Canadian, and Mexican leaders embraced new continental pledges to address climate change. A North American Leaders Summit included vows to reduce methane releases from oil and gas production by 40-to-45 percent from 2012 levels by 2025.

Part of the enthusiasm surrounding this tri-national commitment stemmed from a recognition that energy-sector methane ranks among the technologically easiest and lowest-cost greenhouse gases to mitigate. Technologies to measure and monitor methane and capture it for use as natural gas are increasingly available, maturing rapidly, and often highly cost-effective. Captured methane retains considerable commercial value if used as natural gas rather than wasted.

Given these complementary factors, methane is routinely characterized as low-hanging fruit for climate policy. Perhaps this contributed to the big grins that Justin Trudeau, Enrique Pea Nieto, and Barack Obama displayed toward the end of their Three Amigos Summit. Five years later, Biden will host his own North American summit, joining Trudeau and Mexicos Andrs Manuel Lpez Obrador. Some reference to climate and energy is likely. But what happened to previous summit pledges?

North America still lacks a credible measurement system for methane releases. An ever-growing body of research using advanced technology routinely finds consistent downward bias in official data published in all three nations. Progress is being made by groups using satellites and related technology to monitor portions of the methane supply chain, but government-reported methane numbers remain suspect.

Policy development to mitigate methane releases has proven highly uneven. In the United States, Obama-era efforts to apply the Clean Air Act to methane collapsed after a withering counter-offensive by industry, states, and the Trump Administration. With a few notable exceptions, most notably Colorado, production states have subsequently stood pat on methane, reflecting the historic reluctance to upset production firms. Industry performance on employing best practices for technology and emission minimization continues to vary dramatically as best we know.

Since Biden took office, Congress has restored Obama-era provisions for new drilling operations. A methane fee remains under Build Back Better Act consideration, albeit weakened from its initial form and linked to funding to subsidize industry acquisition of mitigation technology. New federal funding is also in the offing to remediate abandoned and orphan wells, given past and present industry and state aversion to rigorous bonding provisions. The Environmental Protection Agency has just released proposed rules for expanded methane oversight, but these now begin a perilous political and legal path forward. In short, the United States has begun revisiting methane policy but with a very uncertain future after a squandered half-decade.

Mexico initially appeared poised for methane leadership, including through widely acclaimed 2018 legislation. But implementation has advanced glacially and Lpez Obradors 2018 election triggered a profound Mexican energy policy pivot. Earlier support for rapid renewable energy expansion has been supplanted by all-out oil pursuit that restores Petrleos Mexicanos (Pemex) as the preeminent national energy force. Mexico holds an unenviable record of producing significant declines in oil output alongside major methane release increases. Expanded methane waste has fostered growing reliance on imported American natural gas.

The 2016 summit, however, was not a complete flop. Canada largely honored its part of the bargain while its two continental partners shirked. Trudeau prioritized methane regulation, leading to 2018 federal standards. This included tri-annual leak detection and repair, flaring and venting restrictions, and transition to low-emission pneumatic technology at production sites. The government has pledged to go farther in coming years.

Canada has framed methane policy as a complement to other climate initiatives such as its robust carbon pricing program in preparing Glasgow pledges. Its federal government lacks authority to impose national policies and so negotiated equivalency agreements with major production provinces. British Columbia promptly submitted an equivalency proposal, leading to early 2020 approval. According to a Pembina Institute analysis, BC regulations have strong elements, representing best practices and in some cases exceeding the federal rules. British Columbia also adopted legislation to address its growing orphan well backlog, blending expanded regulations with a new levy on production to assure funding. Alberta and Saskatchewan similarly produced equivalency plans but these were more modest than British Columbias, resulting in longer negotiations and some variation from federal intent. Ultimately, new agreements have been approved, lubricated by expanded federal funding for industry loans and grants to ease technology transition costs.

Canada emerges a half-decade after the 2016 summit with an operational federal plan that appears to be reducing emissions despite increased energy production. There remain uncertainties as to whether Canada can honor 2025 reduction pledges, given provincial inconsistencies and enduring doubts over release data accuracy. Nonetheless, while all three nations have embraced the Global Methane Pledge, only Canada has a clear forward path to address the energy component of this initiative.

Methane will not dominate the coming continental deliberations, given the many issues that will compete for summit attention. More broadly, the way in which other places such as China, Europe, and Russia deal with methane remains unclear. The new global pledge also includes other sectors such as agriculture, which poses different technology challenges and represents a difficult constituency for political leaders to address.

But one foundational step would entail North American commitment to employ state-of-the-art technology to systematically measure and report methane emissions. Both government and business can build on the established continental model for toxic emission releases and expand its application. As long as methane continues to lack clear measurement and oversight, multi-national pledges will mean little to long-term environmental sustainability. North America could become a model for global efforts to deliver on the new international pledge.

SEATTLE, Nov. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --PitchBook, the premier data provider for the private and public equity markets, today released its Q3 2021 Emerging Technology Indicator (ETI), which provides in-depth analysis on the disruptive technologies driving growth opportunities and predicts the next generation of promising companies. The report tracks a smaller subset of startups receiving seed- and early-stage investment from top performing VC firms. In this third iteration of the report, PitchBook's Institutional Research Group tracked 189 early- and seed-stage deals that involved the top 15 VC firms. These firms are determined each quarter based on the success of their investments over time, in terms of exits and valuations. According to the analysis, top performing VCs are chasing emerging technology deals, deploying $6 billion across 189 deals in Q3 2021, the highest amount on record.

To download PitchBook's Q3 2021 Emerging Technology Indicator, click here.

"Investment activity across early-stage emerging technologies is another proof point of frenetic VC environment," said Paul Condra, head of emerging technology research at PitchBook. "Emerging tech deal sizes tend to run 3x to 5x larger than median deal sizes across the entire VC industry, which is driven by several factors, including the tendency for our ETI investor cohort to be larger, multi-stage investors; their ability to obtain larger stakes in startups, and the higher likelihood of co-investment resulting in larger rounds. Investors are also closely monitoring current events driving market and economic trends, resulting in changes in the top five sectors attracting investment."

In Q3 2021, there were 14 early and seed stage deals over $100 million, up from eight deals in Q2 2021 and significantly higher than the historical quarterly average of three dating back through 2015. Compared to ETI deal trends on a cumulative four-quarter basis, Q3 deal activity was notable for several reasons, including the surge in Web3 & DeFi funding as well as the strong quarter for supply chain tech and the relatively low investment quarter for health and wellness tech and biotechnology.

See below some key takeaways from the investment activity in Q3 2021:

Patent-pending technology advances Brivo's efforts in revolutionizing enterprise PropTech through the power of data

BETHESDA, Md., Nov. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Brivo a global leader in cloud-based access control and smart building technologies today announced the release of Anomaly Detection in its flagship access control solution, Brivo Access. Anomaly Detection is a patent-pending technology that uses advanced analytics with machine learning algorithms to compare massive amounts of user and event data to identify events that are out of the ordinary or look suspicious, and issues priority alerts for immediate follow up. With Anomaly Detection, business leaders can get a nuanced understanding of security vulnerabilities across their facility portfolio and take action on early indicators of suspicious user behaviors that may otherwise go unnoticed.

Brivo

"With Anomaly Detection, Brivo is incorporating the latest data and machine learning technology in ways never before seen in physical security," said Steve Van Till, Founder and CEO of Brivo. "Along with our recently released Brivo Snapshot capability, Anomaly Detection uses AI to simplify access management by notifying customers about abnormal situations and prioritizing them for further investigation. After training, each customer's neural network will know more about traffic patterns in their space than the property managers themselves. This means that property managers can stop searching for the needle in the haystack. We identify it and flag it for them automatically."

Anomaly Detection's AI engine learns the unique behavioral patterns of each person in each property they use to develop a signature user and spatial profile, which is continuously refined as behaviors evolve. This dynamic real-time picture of normal activity complements static security protocols, permissions, and schedules. In practice, when someone engages in activity that is a departure from their past behavior, Anomaly Detection creates a priority alert in Brivo Access Event Tracker indicating the severity of the aberration. This programmed protocol helps organizations prioritize what to investigate.

Story continues

As more companies roll out hybrid work policies for employees, most businesses are poised to see a lot of variation in office schedules and movement. For human operators, learning these new patterns would take a tremendous amount of time, particularly analyzing out-of-the-ordinary behaviors that are technically still within the formal bounds of acceptable use. With Anomaly Detection in Brivo Access, security teams can gain better visibility and understanding as the underlying technology continuously learns users' behaviors and patterns as they transition over time.

The release of Anomaly Detection continues Brivo's significant investments in Brivo Access and AI over the last year to offer building owners and managers more comprehensible, actionable insights and save time-intensive legwork.

Episode 128 of Down to Business podcast

Author of the article:

When Facebook announced it was changing its name to meta, a nod to the idea that more and more of our lives are moving online to a so-called metaverse, some people understood immediately.

In the first of a three-part series exploring issues related to cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology, Down to Business spoke to Ethan Lou, author of the book Once a bitcoin miner, about why the development of blockchain technology is so crucial to the metaverse.

For the uninitiated, blockchain is the technology underlying bitcoin and various cryptocurrencies, but which can also be used to write smart contracts. Its like a public ledger that can establish ownership of something on the internet, but to Lou and others, it could potentially revolutionize the way the metaverse is developed.

Lou, a journalist and contributor to the Financial Post who writes frequently about blockchain, explained why he thinks the technology holds so much promise and offered his perspective on why its already important but bound to play an even greater role in the future. As always the interview was edited for clarity and brevity.

Herb Hunt loves talking about Nyriad, the New Zealand-based startup storage technology developer he joined just over a year ago as CEO. Hunt, who holds New Zealand, Canadian and U.S. citizenship, will talk about funding, recent hires, plans to move headquarters to the U.S. and more. But he goes nearly quiet when asked about the technology his company is developing because, despite receiving $36 million in funding so far, its not ready.

We have lots of competitors, obviously, Hunt told CRN. Its a tough market. And wed prefer not to let anybody know what were doing until we actually have to because were releasing product into the market and need to explain to customers how it works.

Hunt will discuss the technology in general terms, noting that it is a software-based technology in combination with commodity hardware that uses a combination of GPUs and CPUs to provide fast performance with a low total cost of ownership. He said the company will have an indirect channel focus and is already talking to several solution providers.

Here is a look at a potential storage industry contender for 2022 and beyond.
