ARCTIC-BLUE-BEVERAGES
Arctic Blue Beverages Oy, the manufacturer of the international award-winning Arctic Blue Gin, is launching the world's first gin-based oat liqueur. The dairy alternatives market is growing very fast in both Europe and the United States, where growth has been in the triple digits for already two years in a row. Oat is expected to become the largest plant-based raw material in its product field – even exceeding almond - surpassing € 1 billion in sales over the next five years.

Oat replaces milk
The global market for traditional cream-based liqueurs is around 18 million bottles per year, or € 1.5 billion, Drinks Retail News reports. Unlike almost all other cream liqueurs, Arctic Blue Oat is a vegan product. "So far, oat has been mainly used in dairy alternatives. We have noted that oat also works as an excellent base for an alcohol product,” says Valtteri Eroma, CEO of Arctic Blue Beverages.
Mr. Tuomas Kukkonen, a board member of Arctic Blue Beverages, has had a significant role in the product development of the new Arctic Blue Oat. Mr. Kukkonen is the former CEO of the pioneering company Kaslink Oy, manufacturing oat products. In 2019, Kaslink Oy was sold to Fazer Group, a Finnish foods giant.
“Arctic Blue Oat will be available in the Finnish market before summer. After that, it will gradually be available in the rest of the world, during year 2021,” says Eroma.
Finnish organic oats
In the manufacture process of the Arctic Blue Oat, the taste from the second main ingredient, artisan gin, has been thoughtfully taken into attention. Artisan gin is made in Ilomantsi, the most eastern community of Finland.
Unlike conventional oat drinks, found in daily retail stores, Arctic Blue Oat contains only water and oats, without additives. It contains only gluten-free, organic, Finnish oats.
Globally, the market for dairy alternatives products has doubled in the last five years, from around € 10 billion to € 20 billion. Compared to dairy products, the key benefits of oats are the lower environmental impact, health benefits and the great taste.

ViaLase Announces First Patient Treated in IDE Clinical Trial Evaluating Its Femtosecond Laser Trabeculotomy for Open-Angle Glaucoma3.12.2025 14:00:00 CET | Press release
Prospective, randomized controlled trial compares novel femtosecond laser procedure to selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT), advancing path to US commercialization ViaLase, Inc., a clinical-stage medical technology company pioneering incision-free, laser-based solutions for glaucoma, today announced that the first patient has been treated in its U.S. Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) clinical trial evaluating the company’s femtosecond laser trabeculotomy procedure for the management of glaucoma, a lifelong, progressive, and incurable disease that remains a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. This prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled trial evaluates the ViaLase procedure in comparison to selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT), the current standard laser treatment for reducing intraocular pressure (IOP). This trial was designed in consultation with the FDA to achieve clearance and commercialization in the U.S. and thus represents one of the most rigorous e
Winchester Interconnect Launches LiteSPEed™ Cable: Faster, Lighter, Simpler Connectivity for Mission-Critical Systems3.12.2025 14:00:00 CET | Press release
Winchester Interconnect, an Aptiv company and leading supplier of high-performance interconnect solutions, today introduced LiteSPEed™ Cable, a next-generation single-pair Ethernet (SPE) solution that delivers 10-gigabit data rates in a dramatically smaller, lighter design. Built for the increasingly connected and space-constrained environments of aerospace, defense, industrial automation and next-generation mobility, LiteSPEed™ helps customers move more data with less cable, reducing weight, complexity, and cost while increasing system performance and reliability. “As systems become more intelligent and interconnected, engineers need lighter, more efficient ways to deliver power and data,” said Juan Contreres, director of product management. “LiteSPEed™ gives them a rugged, high-speed Ethernet solution that simplifies installation without compromising performance.” With advanced sensors, real-time analytics, and distributed control systems proliferating across industries, cabling has
Owkin Announces International Validation Results of BRCAura: AI-Driven Screening for gBRCA Mutations Directly From Pathology Slides3.12.2025 14:00:00 CET | Press release
Owkin shares promising validation results for BRCAura RUO, a clinical-grade research-use-only AI product designed to screen for germline BRCA1/2 mutations (gBRCAm) directly from digitized breast cancer pathology slides. Breast cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women worldwide. Identifying patients with germline BRCA1/2 mutations is essential for guiding targeted treatment decisions, but testing is not always consistently offered to eligible individuals, and implementation varies between countries. The model concept was initiated as part of Owkin’s ongoing partnership with Gustave Roussy and Centre Léon Bérard through PortrAIt, a French consortium dedicated to advancing precision medicine with AI-enabled digital pathology. Fostered through collaboration with AstraZeneca, as announced in October 2024, the development of BRCAura aims to accelerate and expand identification of BRCA mutations in patients with breast cancer. Strong validation across internationa
