24.1.2025 06:30:00 CET | ACCESS Newswire | Press release
The Agreement provides participating countries with the opportunity to diversify their mRNA COVID-19 vaccine supply and gain access to pre-filled syringe vaccine formats
CAMBRIDGE, MA / ACCESS Newswire / January 24, 2025 / Moderna, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRNA) today announced that it has been awarded a tender for the supply of its mRNA COVID-19 vaccine in the European Union (EU), Norway and North Macedonia. Under the resulting agreement, 17 participating countries can access Moderna's mRNA COVID-19 vaccine for up to four years.
"This agreement presents an opportunity for Moderna to support and strengthen national COVID-19 vaccination campaigns across participating countries," said Chantal Friebertshäuser, Senior Vice President, General Manager - Europe & Middle-East, Moderna. "Diversity of supply and availability of vaccine formats such as pre-filled syringes are vital to help increase vaccination rates and enhance vaccination campaign efficiency, ultimately strengthening health security."
Under the agreement, Moderna can provide its COVID-19 vaccine in several formats, including prefilled syringes. This is the preferred product presentation for healthcare providers as it can decrease the risk of administration errors and save time, which may ultimately improve vaccination campaign efficiency.
In September 2024, the European Commission (EC) granted marketing authorization for an updated formulation of Moderna's COVID-19 mRNA vaccine Spikevax, targeting the SARS-CoV-2 variant JN.1, for active immunization to prevent COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2 in individuals six months of age and older.

"Professional services firms face a capability paradox," said Ash Khanna, Head of Professional Services at General Assembly. "AI can accelerate output, but it can't replace the judgment that comes from doing the hard work. We're seeing junior talent generate recommendations faster than ever, but struggle to defend the reasoning behind them. Firms must invest in the durable human skills that make AI output credible and defensible. Upskilling can't be an afterthought; it has to be as central to a firm's AI strategy as the technol

IXOPAY and Zip US Introduce Unified Trust Layer Framework to Help Merchants Reduce Risk in Agentic Commerce24.3.2026 11:00:00 CET | Press release
Open, Collaborative Initiative to Establish Identity, Preserve Intent, and Make Trust Measurable in AI-Initiated Commerce LEHI, UT AND NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / March 24, 2026 / IXOPAY, the enterprise-grade global payment infrastructure platform built for the era of agentic commerce, and Zip, the digital financial services company offering innovative, people-centred products, today announced a joint initiative to define a Unified Trust Layer - an open industry framework designed to address emerging trust and liability challenges in agent-initiated commerce and payments. Agentic commerce introduces a structural shift in payments. Traditional infrastructure was built around a four-party risk model - consumer, merchant, issuing bank, and acquiring bank - with the assumption that a human initiated the transaction. As AI agents begin acting autonomously, that model no longer holds. Payment systems were not designed to consistently preserve identity, intent, and context in a machine-v
