SHENZHEN, China, July 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Huawei held the 2025 Global Education and Healthcare Partner China Convention. Over 300 partner guests from 40 countries attended. At the event, Huawei launched the Global Education and Healthcare Partner Alliance (GEHPA). This initiative aims to strengthen communication with industry partners, leverage mutual strengths, achieve win-win cooperation, and ultimately build a high-quality, sustainable industry ecosystem. Members of the alliance can jointly undertake technical research and develop innovative solutions to power the digital transformation of education and healthcare worldwide.
Education and healthcare are greatly impacted by the rapid development of AI technologies and applications. Ernest Zhang, President of Partner Development and Commercial & Distribution Business Dept in Huawei Enterprise Sales Dept, stated that Huawei is committed to fully supporting its partners with enhanced capabilities, collaborative innovation, and a superior partnership experience. The goal is to ensure that more partners thrive through the cooperation, jointly serve the hundreds of thousands of education and healthcare customers worldwide, and build a more beautiful future for these industries in the age of AI.
Li Junfeng, Vice President of Huawei and CEO of Global Public Sector BU, stated out that the education and healthcare sectors are at the forefront of the global digital and intelligent transformation. Huawei is eager to work with partners to build a friendly, win-win, and sustainable global partner ecosystem. They will do this by creating joint solutions, nurturing industry ecosystems, setting benchmarks, and innovating cooperation models.
Peter Zhou, Vice President of Huawei and President of the Data Storage Product Line, stated that the healthcare industry's vast accumulation of high-quality data is key to leading AI implementation in the sector. He then proposed four initiatives: promoting standardized healthcare data and management, building shared intelligent diagnostic and treatment data infrastructure across departments and multiple hospital campuses, facilitating the tool-based and standardized development of data and model engineering, and accelerating the creation and adoption of sound AI diagnostic and treatment business models to foster a positive cycle.
Moving forward, Huawei plans to strengthen global collaborations, consistently innovating and applying new technologies in education and healthcare to address changing market needs. At the same time, Huawei will also commit to driving the high-quality development of the GEHPA, contributing to the sustainable growth of global education and healthcare.

New finance chief to visit US for urgent tariff talks

Seasoned bureaucrat Koo Yun-cheol was inaugurated as South Korea's Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister on Monday, ending a three-month leadership vacuum at the ministry tasked with resolving US tariff talks, accelerating tax reforms and leading an AI-driven economic overhaul. As soon as Koo took office, his first official business trip was scheduled to the US, though the exact schduled was not released as of press time. The trips place at the top of Koo's agenda highlights the urgency and importance Seoul places on trade negotiations on resolving issues like tariffs on automobiles, steel and aluminum, as well as US demands for wider market access. Koo said he would prioritize national interests and pragmatism in the trade talks. 'I will visit the US as soon as possible to explain Korea's situation and work diligently to ensure the best possible outcome in the tariff negotiations,' Koo said, following the inauguration ceremony held at the government complex in Sejong. Koo and Industry Minister Kim Jung-kwan are reportedly coordinating efforts to meet US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer as part of a government-wide push for high-level 2+2 talks. Key negotiating targets include adjustments to the 25 percent tariffs on critical industries and addressing US requests such as easing online platform regulations, exporting high-precision mapping data, expanding LNG imports and boosting industrial cooperation, including in shipbuilding and the Alaska gas pipeline project. Another key issue for Koo is a major tax reform package that is expected to be announced soon. The reforms are anticipated to reverse some of the tax cuts introduced by the previous administration, particularly raising corporate tax rates. The move responds to declining corporate tax revenues, which fell from some 100 trillion won ($71.8 billion) in 2022 to around 60 trillion last year. While corporate taxes have fallen mainly due to an economic slowdown, the reforms are symbolically significant, representing the administration's first major fiscal move. Discussions include scaling back the capital gains tax threshold for major shareholders and restoring some securities transaction taxes, which had been held at near zero rates. Critics argue that existing policies favor ultra-wealthy investors and create excessive tax exemptions, diverging from broader efforts to achieve fiscal equity. The upcoming reforms aim to restore balance, boost revenue, and address long-standing concerns over tax fairness. Koo's advocacy for AI forms a central part of his vision. He has emphasized that the government must prioritize an AI-driven transformation of the economy to escape an outdated growth model and contend with declining potential growth and widening sector disparities. During a confirmation hearing before the National Assembly's Finance and Economy Committee on Thursday, Koo proposed establishing a dedicated AI division within the ministry. He stressed that AI efforts should concentrate on areas where regions and industries have competitive advantages. 'It's not about applying AI across all industries but honing in on the items that can excel. To do that, we need to eliminate regulations and consider injecting unlimited funds,' he said.

Texas Cardiac Arrhythmia Institute at St. David's Medical Center first in U.S. to use FDA-approved novel wireless system to treat cardiac arrhythmias

AUSTIN, Texas, July 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Electrophysiologists at the Texas Cardiac Arrhythmia Institute (TCAI) at St. David's Medical Center recently became the first in the nation to implant an FDA-approved novel leadless system that provides cardiac resynchronization therapy to patients with heart failure. Cardiac resynchronization therapy improves the timing of the heart's contractions, helping to restore the normal rhythm of the heartbeat. The first procedure was recently performed by Robert Canby, M.D., cardiac electrophysiologist at TCAI. "This technology marks a significant advancement in how we care for patients with heart rhythm disorders—particularly those who previously had few viable cardiac resynchronization therapy treatment options," said Andrea Natale, M.D., F.H.R.S., F.A.C.C., F.E.S.C., cardiac electrophysiologist and executive medical director of TCAI. "At the Texas Cardiac Arrhythmia Institute, our commitment is to bring the most advanced, evidence-based therapies to patients worldwide, and as a result of Dr. Canby's leadership, we successfully delivered on that promise." The system is the first-ever to stimulate the heart muscle electrically via a small, leadless device—about the size of a grain of rice—that is implanted inside tissue of the left ventricle, the heart's primary pumping chamber. The device converts ultrasound energy into electrical pulses, restoring the heart's normal rhythm and pumping efficiency. Traditional cardiac resynchronization therapies involve leads—thin and soft insulated wires about the size of a spaghetti noodle. This left ventricular endocardial pacing device provides a direct approach, which enables more flexible placement and expands access to those who were previously considered untreatable. TCAI is a state-of-the-art Electrophysiology Center that includes six labs equipped with advanced technology where a group of esteemed cardiac electrophysiologists—led by Dr. Natale, a world-renowned expert in the field—perform a high volume of the most complex electrophysiology procedures.
