Streamlined Organization Lays Foundation for Company Rebrand
SK pharmteco, a global contract development, manufacturing, and analytical testing organization serving the pharmaceutical and cell & gene therapy industries, today announced the launch of a brand unification initiative.

This comprehensive offering empowers us to support our partners throughout the entire drug development lifecycle and, ultimately, quickly provide life-changing therapies to those who need it most.”
Building upon this brand unification, SK pharmteco will unveil a comprehensive rebranding initiative. This transformation will encompass a recently launched new website with a fresh URL, www.skpharmteco.com, along with modern and cohesive visual imagery, and updated email addresses to reflect the unified SK pharmteco brand identity.
“Our rebrand marks a pivotal moment for SK pharmteco, aligning our identity with our mission to deliver transformative medicines to patients and our commitment to providing exceptional service to our customers,” said Liza Rivera, SK pharmteco’s Vice President of Marketing & Communications, who is leading the branding efforts. “Additionally, it reflects our dedication to innovation, collaboration, and excellence as a trusted partner.”
The unified SK pharmteco boasts a robust global footprint with facilities strategically located across North America, Europe, and Asia. This extensive network ensures efficient project management and facilitates close collaboration with clients worldwide.
The company’s expanded service portfolio encompasses:

57% of Brands Can't Prove ROI on Sports Fan Engagement Despite Rising Investment8.9.2026 11:30:00 CEST | Press release
Infobip’s new global research reveals a gap between higher spend and measurable ROI Research commissioned by Infobip, the global AI-first cloud communications platform celebrating 20 years, shows brands are significantly increasing investment in sports fan engagement even as many struggle to prove business impact. The global study of 500 marketing and digital leaders across industries, including retail, financial services, telecoms, travel, and food & beverage in 11 markets found that brands currently allocate an average of 13% of annual marketing budgets to sports-related activations, and nearly 73% expect investment to increase over the next 12 months. Yet while live sports moments generate the highest levels of fan engagement, nearly half (47%) of organizations admit they struggle to deliver real-time engagement during live events, and more than half (57%) say it is difficult to prove the ROI of their sports marketing investments.

Icon Solutions and MongoDB Benchmark Shows IPF Processing 6,000 Payments per Second with Zero Data Loss Under Failure8.9.2026 10:54:00 CEST | Press release
Joint benchmark on MongoDB Atlas demonstrates near-linear scalability, sub-second end-to-end latency and recovery from application and database node failures without losing a single transaction. Icon Solutions and MongoDB today published the results of a joint benchmark showing that the Icon Payments Framework (IPF), running on MongoDB Atlas, processed 6,000 end-to-end payment transactions per second (around 430,000 database operations per second) with a mean end-to-end latency of 0.51 seconds, and recovered from both application and database node failures with zero data loss. Account-to-account payment volumes are moving rapidly onto instant rails. Traffic is migrating from net-settlement schemes to instant schemes, and direct debit volumes are expected to partially move to request-to-pay with settlement through instant schemes. For banks, that means sharper traffic peaks, a growing share of payments bound to scheme SLAs of a few seconds, and no tolerance for downtime. Sustaining seve
