Historic Italian football club Brescia goes bankrupt
Italian businessman Massimo Cellino has owned the Lombardy club since 2017. Cellino was previously the owner of English side Leeds, where he was known for his managerial swinging door policy and his problems with the courts. The 68-year-old had until Friday to pay part of €8 million in tax arrears. Brescia's failure to pay the sum has resulted in the club losing the right to take part in the Italian league system. The club were deducted four points by the tribunal of the Italian football federation (FIGC) for their financial woes. As a result of the sanction, Brescia, which finished the Serie B season in 15th place with 43 points, dropped to 18th place with 39 points, resulting in relegation to the third-tier Serie C. Brescia spent 23 seasons in Serie A, with their best performance being an eighth-place finish in the 2000-2001 season. Famous past players of the club include Italian internationals Roberto Baggio, Alessandro Altobelli, Andrea Pirlo and Luca Toni, as well as current Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola, who played there between 2001 and 2003.

Cellino's iPSC Manufacturing Technology Receives FDA Advanced Manufacturing Technology (AMT) Designation
AMT Designation Positions Cellino to Accelerate the Development of Scalable, Personalized Regenerative Medicines CAMBRIDGE, Mass., May 19, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cellino, a leader in advanced biomanufacturing, today announced that its optical biomanufacturing technology for generating induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) has received the FDA's Advanced Manufacturing Technology (AMT) designation from the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER). This prestigious designation highlights the transformative potential of Cellino's automated technology for scaling up high-quality iPSCs to industrialize next-generation regenerative therapies. The FDA encourages the adoption of advanced manufacturing technologies (AMTs) that improve manufacturing reliability, product quality, and production scale. The AMT designation accelerates timelines for therapies manufactured using Cellino's optical biomanufacturing technology, offering higher priority within the FDA, along with earlier and more frequent interactions during Investigational New Drug (IND), New Drug Application (NDA), and Biologics License Application (BLA) processes for a faster path to market. "We are honored to receive the AMT designation for our proprietary technology stack," said Nabiha Saklayen, Ph.D., CEO and Co-Founder of Cellino. "This recognition affirms our commitment to revolutionizing the production of patient-specific iPSCs, enabling faster and more consistent clinical and commercial-scale manufacturing. It's a pivotal moment in our mission to deliver personalized regenerative therapies that can scale globally, transforming healthcare for millions." Autologous iPSC manufacturing has long been one of the most complex challenges in biomanufacturing, involving labor-intensive processes like manual passaging and colony picking that only a limited number of experts worldwide can perform. These hurdles have slowed progress, preventing many therapeutic programs from advancing past early-phase clinical trials. Cellino's proprietary optical bioprocessing technology overcomes these challenges by introducing precision, reproducibility, and scalability, ensuring reliable, high-quality iPSC production for both clinical trials and commercial stages. "This AMT designation underscores the scientific rigor and transformative potential of our technology," said Marinna Madrid, Ph.D., Chief Product Officer and Co-Founder of Cellino. "Automated, optical manufacturing is key to ensuring patient access to regenerative medicines. This milestone brings us closer to scaling therapies from Phase 1 through large-scale commercialization, aiming to address some of the world's most debilitating chronic degenerative diseases." Cellino intends to leverage the AMT designation to expedite the translation of personalized iPSC-derived therapies into clinical practice. With global chronic disease burdens rising and more than 100 million individuals in the U.S. alone who could potentially benefit from iPSC-derived therapies, Cellino's technology is poised to significantly expand patient access to next-generation living medicines.
