MINNEAPOLIS, MN, September 8th, 2026, FinanceWire

A material that turns your own movement into medicine has just landed a corporate home. PetVivo Holdings (OTCQX: PETV), a veterinary biotech and biomedical device company focused on treating osteoarthritis in dogs and horses, has acquired PiezoBioMembrane (PBM) — a startup built around a biodegradable implant that generates electricity from the everyday force of a joint in motion, and uses that charge to help regrow cartilage from the inside out. The material is the invention of Thanh Nguyen, a professor of mechanical engineering in UConn’s College of Engineering, who founded PBM in 2021 to advance new implementation methods for his work with piezoelectric materials — substances that convert mechanical force into electrical energy. These materials are typically ceramics: hard, brittle, and poorly suited for medical use. But Nguyen’s lab developed new forms that are so , flexible, and biodegradable, breaking down naturally within the body over time. wound healing, The materials have already shown strong potential across a range of medical applications, including tissue regeneration, implanted force sensors, and targeted drug delivery in tumor treatment. How It Works biodegradable ultrasound for In the case of arthritis, Nguyen explains, the piezoelectric materials function as an off-the-shelf product that can be implanted or injected directly into the ailing joint — with no drugs, chemicals, or cells required. The everyday force exerted on the joint generates a small electrical charge, which helps regrow healthy cartilage, mimicking the body’s natural use of electricity to regenerate tissue. “The body can be electrically stimulated to regrow,” Nguyen says. PBM’s materials “act like a battery — an everlasting battery that works whenever there is a force applied, and vanishes safely inside the body over time.” PetVivo’s Vision for the Acquisition PetVivo Holdings CEO John Lai expressed enthusiasm for the merger’s potential to improve the lives of companion animals globally. “PBM has developed a compelling functional biomaterials platform with the potential to support the development of multiple medical device and therapeutic product lines across both human and animal health markets,” Lai said in a press release. “By combining PBM’s scientific innovation with PetVivo’s product development capabilities, commercialization experience, regulatory expertise, and public company infrastructure, we believe we can accelerate theadvancement of technologies that may serve as the foundation for numerous future products and strategic opportunities.” For Nguyen, the deal is a chance to scale technology that could eventually benefit both animals and people. “PetVivo is an animal health company, but they do have a big passion: pushing the technology towards clinical trials for human use,” Nguyen says. “That aligned perfectly with my passion for developing technology that has an impact on human life. That is why I am excited about this merger, which facilitates my passion.” A Track Record of Innovation Nguyen’s research sits at the intersection of medicine, micro/nanotechnology, and biomaterials. His inventions have earned him publications in prominent scientific journals and media coverage from outlets including NPR. Nguyen founded PBM during the COVID-19 pandemic, a er realizing the material he had developed could be used to create an especially effective, biodegradable face mask — one where the mechanical force of breathing generated an electrical charge that provided an extra layer of protection against viruses. PBM is not Nguyen’s only venture in the acquisition pipeline. His other startup, Single-Time Microneedles (STM), is also currently undergoing an acquisition process. STM has pioneered stable, efficient vaccine delivery technology in the form of an adhesive patch. shelfNguyen’s focus on biodegradable materials has translated into a remarkably diverse range of medical applications. He has received five R01 grants from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) supporting research in cartilage regeneration, bone regeneration, HIV antibody delivery systems, and biodegradable ultrasound technology to boost the effectiveness of chemotherapy for brain cancer. “Whatever we are working on, we want to show that it works very well in vitro and in vivo,” Nguyen says. “Then, when we are at the point of commercialization, we set up a startup or license the technology — or maybe team up with an industry partner.” Thanh Nguyen is a professor of mechanical engineering in UConn’s College of Engineering.

Malmö Project Outlines Business Proposal Development and Project Funds Management Activities in the Netherlands

Published

on

Netherlands, 10th Oct 2026 — The Malmö Project, presented by Audrius Razma under the Project Funds Manager designation at Ossendrecht Contract, outlines an approach to business project proposal development, investment-related research, and the coordination of professional support services. The initiative is documented on the project’s online platform, where readers can explore its stated objectives and the resources associated with its activities.

The project information is published on the website of Audrius Razma and references Malmö as the focus of its business proposal activities. It describes the use of publicly available company information to develop commercial project proposals that may be presented to businesses for consideration and potential financing.

Business Research and Project Proposal Development

A central element of the Malmö Project is the preparation of business proposals informed by company information. The published material encourages readers to examine lists of businesses identified as potential investment opportunities and use relevant information to develop structured project proposals.

Business proposal development typically involves understanding a company’s activities, identifying potential commercial opportunities, assessing resource requirements, and presenting a clear rationale for a proposed initiative. A well-organized proposal can help prospective business partners evaluate the purpose, feasibility, and expected costs of a project before deciding whether to participate.

The project’s stated approach places emphasis on commercial awareness and the preparation of written material based on available business information. Such work requires careful research, transparent assumptions, and clear documentation of any projected financial outcomes.

Companies and individuals considering a proposal should independently verify the information used, assess the associated risks, and establish the terms of any potential funding arrangement before making financial commitments.

The Role of Project Funds Management

Audrius Razma is identified in the published material as the Project Funds Manager associated with Ossendrecht Contract. The role provides an administrative framework for the project’s discussion of funding proposals, portfolio documentation, and financial coordination.

Project funds management generally involves organizing financial records, documenting proposed allocations, monitoring project-related expenditures, and maintaining information that supports financial reviews. These activities can help stakeholders understand how a project is structured and what resources may be required for its implementation.

Clear documentation is particularly important when proposals involve multiple companies, external service providers, or prospective funding partners. Written agreements, verifiable records, and clearly defined responsibilities can help establish expectations and support informed decision-making.

Professional Support and Documentation

The online material also references professional services relating to legal assessments, translation, accounting reviews, investigative research, and the preparation of supporting reports. These services are presented as potential resources for individuals seeking assistance with complex administrative, financial, or legal matters.

Depending on the circumstances, professional support may help individuals organize documents, understand procedural requirements, review financial information, or prepare materials for consultation with qualified advisers.

Legal matters involving compensation claims, business liabilities, insolvency, or disputes with public authorities require an assessment of the relevant facts and applicable law. Outcomes depend on the evidence, jurisdiction, and individual circumstances. Individuals should therefore seek advice from appropriately qualified professionals before relying on potential compensation estimates or pursuing legal action.

Similarly, investment proposals should be reviewed carefully, with attention to the identity of the parties involved, the source and availability of funds, the proposed terms, and any associated risks.

Accessing Information About the Malmö Project

The project page provides the primary reference for readers interested in reviewing the Malmö Project’s published information. It outlines the proposal-development concept and identifies the associated project-management contact.

The initiative is presented in the context of business research, funding-related documentation, and coordination with professional service providers. Its practical application will depend on the details of individual proposals, the reliability of supporting information, and the terms agreed upon by the relevant parties.

Readers can consult the published page to learn more about the project’s stated approach and determine whether further clarification is required before entering into any business or financial arrangement.

Lovering & Partners adds AI role-play for leadership, sales and influence skills with LeaderCoreAI

Published

on

The Bucharest performance consultancy becomes an authorised LeaderCoreAI partner and reseller for Romania and Central and Eastern Europe

Romania, 10th Oct 2026 – Lovering & Partners, the Bucharest-based business, sales and people performance consultancy, now offers AI role-play for leadership, sales and influence skills through a partnership with Blue Horizon Training, the maker and owner of LeaderCoreAI. Lovering & Partners becomes an authorised LeaderCoreAI partner and reseller for Romania and the wider Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) region.

AI role-play simulations for difficult conversations

LeaderCoreAI is an artificial intelligence (AI) simulation platform for leadership development. Participants hold spoken, realistic conversations with AI characters – a resistant team member, a sceptical client, a room of peer managers with competing agendas. Each session ends with scored feedback and concrete recommendations.

Lovering & Partners will embed the platform into three of its own areas of work: leadership coaching and its acceleration programme for emerging leaders and managers, consultative sales training, and its ethical influence programmes. Between workshops and coaching sessions, participants practise the conversations those programmes prepare them for. They can repeat a conversation as often as they want, at five levels of difficulty.

Why practice decides whether training sticks

Pilots train to excellence in flight simulators before they carry passengers. Managers rarely get that chance. Role-play with colleagues offers a few attempts, limited by time and by the discomfort of practising in front of people they work with. So the first real test of a new skill usually comes in a real conversation, with a real person. The partnership brings the simulator into Lovering & Partners’ programmes.

“A workshop gives people the method. It does not give them the repetitions to build new capabilities,” said Colin Lovering, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Lovering & Partners. “Every client asks us the same question: will this training build skills that stick? No trainer can honestly guarantee that. Under pressure, people fall back on old instincts unless the new behaviour has been practised until it becomes the instinct. Now our clients’ people can get that practice, as much as they need.” 

“We build the practice ground,” said Frank Basinski, founder of Blue Horizon Training. “We rely on partners who know how to develop people. Colin and his team have spent years doing that work with organisations in Romania and across the region. That is why we wanted them as a partner.”

How a learner experiences an AI role-play session

For the learner, a session feels like the real conversation. They speak, and the characters answer back, disagree and react to how they are treated. Nobody is watching, so people try approaches they would perhaps not dare with a real colleague. The feedback afterwards is theirs alone: what worked, what did not, and what to try next time. Participants can practise in 42 languages, so Lovering & Partners can offer the platform to multinational clients across the region.

Availability

LeaderCoreAI is available through Lovering & Partners with immediate effect, as part of its programmes or alongside them.
