28.9.2022 15:28:36 CEST | Business Wire | Press release
Following an ongoing assessment of its entire operation, Eczacıbaşı-Monrol Nuclear Products Co. (Monrol) has decided to establish a legal entity and manufacturing facility in Germany.
The new facility will focus on the manufacture of SPECT products and radiopharmaceutical products for radioligand therapy(*) such as Gallium-68 generator and n.c.a Lutetium-177. Developed by Monrol R&D teams, these products are widely used in the production of radiopharmaceuticals for cancer patients. The facility will also have a dedicated division for state-of-the art cGMP Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO) services.
Monrol plans to make the site a center of excellence for both radiopharmaceutical production and scientific and industry collaborative efforts to create innovations. The facility is expected to be up and running by 2026 at an estimated cost of around 30 million euros.
(*) Targeted radioligand therapy is an innovative approach to cancer treatment that is considered to be one of the most remarkable and advanced therapies currently under study. Multiple clinical development programs and clinical trials around the world are testing this approach for various cancer types.
About Lutetium-177 n.c.a
Lutetium-177 n.c.a is a radioisotope of choice for targeted radionuclide therapy. Lu-177 n.c.a production process enables treatment options that have the potential to improve treatment outcomes for certain cancer patients. Unique properties of Lutetium-177 n.c.a make it a theranostically desirable radioisotope for peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) to treat certain cancers like neuro endocrine tumors (NET) and prostate cancer; many clinical development programs are also testing the therapy for other cancers like ccRCC.
About Gallium-68
A gallium-68 generator is a device used to extract the positron-emitting isotope 68Ga of gallium from decaying germanium-68. The parent isotope 68Ge is easily utilized for in-hospital production of generator-produced 68Ga. Its decay product gallium-68 is extracted and employed in certain positron emission tomography nuclear medicine diagnostic procedures used for the diagnosis of cancer patients and direct tumor imaging.

Verdantis Rebrands as the AI Super-Agent for MRO, Sets Sights on AI-Native Enterprise Asset Management8.9.2026 16:06:00 CEST | Press release
Nine AI agents now run the MRO decision chain for Fortune 500 plants; new tagline “Anticipate. Resolve. Learn.” Verdantis, the AI company for spare parts and MRO inventory optimization in asset-intensive industries, today unveiled its new brand identity as the AI Super-agent for MRO and announced it is building toward a fully AI-native Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) platform. Verdantis’s super-agent orchestrates nine specialized AI agents across the decisions that decide plant uptime: spare parts, criticality, demand, reorder, and work order planning. These decisions set working capital, maintenance spend, and whether a critical asset runs and, in most plants, they are still made in spreadsheets and disconnected systems. The positioning is for the teams who own uptime - maintenance, reliability, and MRO supply chain leaders in oil and gas, mining, utilities, chemicals, and manufacturing. And it reflects an AI-first architecture: agents decide and act by default; people supervise, ov
