George Mason University wins grant for “return to work” pilot programs for antibody and diagnostic testing

Fairfax County Economic Development Authority

George Mason University’s College of Health and Human Services and College of Science have been awarded a $100,000 GO Virginia Economic Resilience and Recovery Grant to establish critical infrastructure to improve COVID-19 symptom monitoring and tracking, and diagnostics and facilitate a safe return to work. The initiative will simplify workplace monitoring for symptoms and testing for the COVID-19 virus and antibodies and will improve how contacts are traced when the virus is detected. Capabilities such as effective and easy-to-scale methods for diagnostic and antibody testing and contact tracing are key to a safe return. The interdisciplinary project brings together epidemiologists, nurse researchers, health informatics specialists, and laboratory scientists to create a holistic return to work program that can be scaled up. Dr. Amira Roess, an epidemiologist and professor in the Department of Global & Community Health , is leading the project, which includes integration of symptom, exposure, and behavioral data with regular testing following exposures. Roess brings extensive experience in outbreak and emergency preparedness and response. She advises public and private organizations, including K-12 schools, judicial systems, universities, and businesses on how to safely resume operations. Dr. Lance Liotta, professor in the School of Systems Biology and co-director and co-founder of Mason’s Center for Applied Proteomics and Molecular Medicine (CAPMM) is leading a team that developed a novel saliva-based antibody test, which is easier to use than other tests and has the potential for higher sensitivity and specificity than previous formats. “With breakthroughs in screening, surveillance, and testing, Mason faculty are leading efforts to fight COVID-19 in the region and around the country. The research happening here helps lay the groundwork for the economic recovery of Northern Virginia and the potential for developing commercially-available tests right here in the region,” said Dr. Aurali Dade, Mason’s interim vice president for research, innovation and economic impact. The pilot will focus on understanding the physical and mental health impact of COVID-19 on the workforce, especially among essential, front-line workers such as those in health care, first responder roles, education, and retail. The team plans to use the results to develop tailored stress management interventions and programs to enhance safe return to work for these populations. Leaders at the Fairfax County Economic Development Authority and Prince William Department of Economic Development voiced their support for the pilot initiative and the impact a widely available, non-invasive antibody test coupled with enhanced diagnostic testing can have on the region’s ability to resume key operations. Bringing a COVID-19 testing protocol to market in Northern Virginia could also have longer-term benefits to the region and its growing life sciences and information technology sectors. “This is an important effort to understand more about COVID-19 and its effects on the population, and I am delighted to see it moving forward,” said Victor Hoskins, president and CEO of the Fairfax County Economic Development Authority . “This effort also is the latest example of innovators in the Northern Virginia technology community collaborating to improve people’s lives, and we should be proud that this kind of discovery happens here.” "I'm so proud to call Mason one of Prince William County's own and I'm excited to see this study move forward," said Christina M. Winn, executive director of the Prince William County Department of Economic Development . "It's such an important step in building confidence in our community and preparing our region for safely getting back to work." The GO Virginia Economic Resilience and Recovery Grant Program was created by the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) Growth and Opportunity for Virginia Board. George Mason University matched the grant with $50,000 in funding. "In creating the Economic Resilience and Recovery program, the GO Virginia State Board pivoted resources to focus on near term strategies to mitigate the economic impacts of the pandemic and this project is a perfect example of an innovative regional solution. This collaborative project leverages unique assets in Northern Virginia and we look forward to seeing the results of this pilot and its potential to inform reopening strategies," said Sara Dunnigan, deputy director, GO Virginia and Economic Development at DHCD. The Fairfax County Economic Development Authority promotes Fairfax County as a business and technology center. In addition to its headquarters in Tysons, Fairfax County’s largest business district, the FCEDA maintains business investment offices in six important global business centers: Bangalore/Mumbai, Berlin, London, Los Angeles, Seoul and Tel Aviv.

Citybiz Interview with Tom Davidson, CEO & Founder, Everfi

Citybizlist

There are a number of crises related to inequality that are playing out across the country. These inequalities are not new, they have been around for generations, yet the pandemic is shedding new light on these issues. Society is demanding change and a solid plan for a path forward. EVERFI , a Washington, D.C.-based social impact education technology company, offers a unique solution starting with K-12 learners to address the missing layer of education that holds promise in driving ecosystems of change. EVERFI has been working to solve problems related to social inequality since 2008 and recently announced a $100M commitment to building new and expanding current K-12 courses to address the most important issues that are leading to economic inequality and social injustice. The company identified 12 topic areas it says pose the highest societal risks and established the EVERFI Social Impact Index . The Index includes topics such as financial literacy to diversity, equity & inclusion to health and mental wellness. EVERFI provides annual and five-year metrics to measure its success against each Index category. “When students learn these critical life skills, they become highly-correlated competencies. However, when they are left unattended, they become highly-correlated crises. This moment in time gives us a tremendous opportunity to empower students with this learning using innovation and technology,” says Tom Davidson , Founder and CEO of EVERFI . EVERFI’s success -- it has reached more than 43 million learners across K12, higher education, and workplace environments; its courses are used in 1 out of 5 public schools and by more than 7,500 school districts; it enrolls more than 6 million students in its critical skills education annually -- stands out in the education industry. EVERFI recognizes more than 3,100 customers that join the company in fulfilling its mission of filling in the education gaps that exist. Those customers, which include Beyond Meat, Walmart, Kroger, National Football League, National Hockey League, UBS, MassMutual, and more, sponsor the company’s courses in K-12 schools throughout the country, allowing EVERFI to provide those courses at no cost for teachers and schools. EVERFI’s model has won the company some accolades in 2020 including being recognized by Fast Company as one of the World’s Most Innovative Companies and by Fortune as one of the Impact 20. Since starting EVERFI, Tom has led the company from a startup to a thriving global organization. A graduate of Bowdoin College, he has been a powerful voice at the intersection of regulation, education, and corporate social responsibility and impact. While a senior at Bowdoin College, Tom ran for the Maine House of Representatives, was elected in an upset, and served three consecutive terms before deciding not to pursue reelection. He served as one of the youngest committee Chairs as Chairman of the Utilities and Energy Committee where he led efforts to expand the wiring of schools and libraries across the state. He introduced and passed major legislation on health policy, government ethics, and economic development. He also served as a senior member of the Taxation Committee and the Banking and Insurance and Business and Economic Development Committees. It was during his tenure in the state legislature that Tom realized the powerful role the private sector can play in tackling issues affecting the public sector - specifically schools. Interview questions: What kind of company is Everfi? Mission - Can you tell us about Everfi’s founding mission and why the company you’ve built is more relevant today than ever before? Everfi 2020 - Can you provide a snapshot of Everfi today - # of schools, students, adult learners, strategic partners, etc. How has this year changed your view of the company and the work you do? Platform/Content/Data - Tell us about your community engagement platform and how it works in concert with your programs? I know your platform also generates important metrics for customers reflecting the impact of their investments in communities - can you please share more about how this works and why it’s important. COVID - How was Everfi able to pivot in the delivery of education to students during COVID? Did school districts and teachers weigh in with what they needed and wanted from Everfi? International - In 2019 Everfi made its first international acquisition. Tell us a little bit about the expansion and how it plays into your overall mission? Social Injustice and Economic Inequity: $100 Million - In September Everfi announced a $100M, 3 year commitment to address systemic social injustice and economic inequality through free digital education for our nations’ schools. How will this effort work to close the gaps that lead to long-term inequalities? MassMutual - You recently posted on social media about MassMutual’s long-standing commitment to financial literacy education for middle school children. They have already reached 2Million students with your curriculum and it looks like they are now more committed than ever to continue this impact in more communities nationwide. Can you talk to us about what a program like this really means? Marquee Investors - Everfi has attracted a range of marquee investors from New Enterprise Associates to Allen & C0 to Bono’s fund. Can you walk us through the institutional investors? You have also included some high profile individual investors including Jeff Bezos, Eric Schmidt and Richard Branson. Can you highlight how they became interested and some recent additions? Leadership - What is the role of optimism in the CEO? One of your leadership mantras is dagger in the heart and praise to the back? Can you explain? What are some of the lessons that you have learned from your individual investors?

Applied Insight Honored for Second Year by Government Innovation Awards, Wins in 2020 for SHIFT, Its Cloud Emulation and Testing Platform

Applied Insight

Applied Insight , a market leader in solving complex technology challenges for federal government customers, announced today that it has received the Industry Innovator Award for its SaaS/PaaS emulation and testing platform SHIFT™ as part of the 2020 Government Innovation Awards presented by PublicSector360, including Washington Technology, FCW, GCN and Defense Systems. The award recognizes the groundbreaking nature of SHIFT, which is used by government and commercial customers to develop, test and remediate software prior to deploying it in the classified regions of government clouds. This is the second consecutive year that Applied Insight has won this prestigious award. Last year, the company was recognized for its innovative cloud management platform, Altitude™ . “We are pleased that SHIFT has been recognized as an Industry Innovator,” said Dede Dascalu, CEO of Applied Insight . “There has long been a shortage of software engineers who have the right clearances for national security missions. SHIFT is not only addressing this problem by enabling low-side development, it is also speeding the delivery of modern, mission-critical software to our customers.” Air-gapped and restricted regions of government clouds come with multiple technical nuances that require additional configuration to software products built for commercial use. When commercial software is brought into these special cloud regions, these technical differences result in numerous errors and require several additional deployment cycles. SHIFT is a SaaS/PaaS platform that emulates restricted cloud regions and their systems, so development and implementation teams can configure and test their software prior to deployment. In doing so, SHIFT greatly reduces time and costs by nearly eliminating rework and reconfigurations. In just the first six months of 2020, SHIFT helped identify and remediate more than 5.5 million errors for its customers. “The development of differentiated intellectual property has always been a central pillar of Acacia’s investment approach,” said Gavin Long , partner of The Acacia Group , the sponsor of Applied Insight as a unique, technology-focused, government market platform established in 2017. “Our federal businesses continue to create game-changing technologies that are having a massive impact on the success of customer missions. That Applied Insight now has two award-winning technologies in its product portfolio is great recognition for the team’s technical brilliance. We couldn’t be more proud of what they’ve achieved and will continue to invest in their product development capabilities.” The Government Innovation Awards celebrate the transformative government projects, individual change agents and industry partners that are reimagining public-sector IT. The Industry Innovator awards recognize private-sector companies' vital role in the government IT community. Due to COVID-19, there will be no in-person awards gala this year. Instead, winners and innovations can be found online . About Applied Insight At Applied Insight, we deliver pragmatic solutions for federal missions that cannot wait. We work closely with agencies and industry to overcome technical and cultural hurdles to innovation, empowering them with the latest cloud, data and cyber capabilities.

New Suzy Research Shows Brands Will Need to Shift Strategies to Meet Consumer Preferences this Holiday Season

Suzy

NEW YORK (Oct. 22) -- Suzy , a real-time market research platform, today announced its new research report, “State of the Consumer: 'Tis the Season for Uncertainty,” revealing data about holiday shopping, travel and anticipated consumer spending amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The report found that Americans will rely on virtual connections during the holidays and shift gift giving strategies, meaning brands will have to plan accordingly. Less travel and turkey this Thanksgiving for most Due to continued social distancing guidelines, many Americans are changing their traditional plans, including how and where they will travel during the holidays. Suzy’s research revealed that 75% of young adults do not plan to travel during Thanksgiving and more than one-third of overall respondents (38%) are still undecided about their December holiday plans. While some will try to visit family and friends in-person this Thanksgiving, Suzy found that the majority of respondents have significantly changed their plans. In fact, only 10% either plan to host or attend a Friendsgiving and only about half (53%) will cook a turkey this year. Additionally, indicating major changes for the airline and auto rental industries, respondents are shifting their travel habits: 86% of those who do intend to travel for Thanksgiving are only visiting family, and 71% of those are electing to travel by car. Apprehension remains for public transportation, as only 17% plan to fly, 8% will rely on bus transportation and 3% will take a train for their holiday travel. Zero percent of people aged 60 to 72 years old plan to travel by plane. 29% plan to attend a virtual family event. “Our research shows that major brands are going to have to adjust their advertising, promotions and sales strategies this holiday season to meet consumer demand and expectations,” said Suzy President Avi Savar. “The holidays are a critical time for brands every year, but this year is especially high-stakes for retailers due to market fluctuations associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.” Uncertainty looms around holiday shopping According to Suzy research, holiday shopping plans are still in major flux as consumers aren’t sure how much they will spend this year. In fact, according to Suzy research: 38% are not sure how much they will spend on Black Friday/Cyber Monday, while 22% plan to spend less on Black Friday/Cyber Monday. 12% plan to spend more on Black Friday/Cyber Monday. 32% plan to shop on Black Friday, versus 63% of people who shopped during Black Friday in 2019. 53% are either unsure how much they will spend or plan to spend less on gift giving this holiday season. 65% think it is most important to buy gifts for their kids; 61% are prioritizing buying gifts for their significant other. “Based on our research, it appears that long distance gifting and care packages will become a reality, as people ship presents to loved ones that they cannot be with in person. Brands must change their strategies accordingly to meet these gift giving needs,” added Savar. “Additionally, consumers will be looking to their most frequently shopped retailers to offer deep promotions and discounts to make the holidays a little easier on their psyche and wallets.” A complete State of the Consumer: 'Tis the Season for Uncertainty report is available upon request. About the State of the Consumer: 'Tis the Season for Uncertainty: Suzy’s State of the Consumer: 'Tis the Season for Uncertainty study surveyed 1,000 U.S. consumers in September 2020.

With just a single SKU our customers have comprehensive cybersecurity solutions,” said Faustine Ebangha, Co-Founder and Channel Sales Director at ARFA Technology. Faustine continued, “We evaluated Panda, McAfee, Crowdstrike and Kapersky but Comodo’s breadth of capabilities and pricing makes it the best cybersecurity product in the global market.

Its patent-pending auto containment technology has active breach protection that neutralizes ransomware, malware and cyber-attacks.

The Dragon Platform also utilizes a Default Deny security posture with Default Allow usability to provide a most comprehensive protection against zero-day threats, while having no impact on end-user experience or workflows. Comodo’s Valkyrie analyzes and gives a trusted verdict for every file – no other company will analyze and give trusted verdict for 100% of the files on a network. Comodo’s platform shares intelligence and is therefore more secure than disparate products that claim best of breed but don’t share information. Comodo has architected its cybersecurity product to maximize intelligent sharing between every component of the platform, therefore providing superior security. Alan Knepfer, President and Chief Revenue Office at Comodo said, “This partnership has empowered ARFA to make Comodo solutions and attractive pricing available to customers in every single country in Africa and they’ve had great success.

Computing celebrates the achievements of the IT industry's leading security companies, solutions, products, and personalities that keep every other part of the industry operating.

Computing selected Cyvatar for its cybersecurity-as-a-service (CSaaS) solution for SMEs , an all-in-one subscription-based offering that builds bespoke solutions for customers who are not large enough to invest in in-house security teams, do not have the runway to experiment with multiple security tools as they scale, or cannot compete against larger firms for the scarce number of skilled resources available. By pairing skilled security experts with market-leading technologies across the security spectrum and pricing based on consumption, Cyvatar can deliver guaranteed business outcomes and demystify the complexities inherent in cyber defense. “Every organization is different, but most vendors don’t treat them that way,” said Cyvatar Founder Corey White . “We work side by side with our customers--not across the table from them--to break down barriers that impede a strong protective posture and create a flexible, affordable environment that fosters positive security experiences. No other services provider matches the quality of our technology partners, the deep skills of our security experts, or the business outcomes we guarantee.” Cyvatar believes in the democratization of cybersecurity, ensuring that protection from breaches is accessible and affordable to SMEs--not just to enterprises with deep pockets and dedicated security teams. It also believes in teaching and training SMEs to get the most from every dollar they spend on cybersecurity without the shrouded black-box approach that requires vendor-specific support to operationalize. And Cyvatar lives its values.
