MELBOURNE, Australia, March 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — IonOpticks, a producer of high-performance chromatography solutions for the global research community, will introduce the new TS product range to the US market at US HUPO’s (US Human Proteome Organization) 19th Annual Conference in Chicago on 4-8th March, a renowned event attended by proteomics experts from around the globe.

IonOpticks’ new TS range was developed as a simple plug-and-play, fully integrated heating and source solution for Thermo Scientific mass spectrometer users, who have previously only been able to access the results achievable with IonOpticks Aurora Series columns by creating their own interface – a costly and difficult alternative.

“Researchers can now easily unlock the full potential of their mass specs through the launch of our new TS range. Thermo Orbitraps have been cited in roughly 85% of all publications related to proteomics in the last decade, so we’re excited to make our famed Aurora Series products easily accessible to this significant portion of the mass spec community,” says Xavier Perronnet, Managing Director at IonOpticks.

“We’re excited to be attending US HUPO, to meet with our peers and showcase how the TS, combined with our Aurora Series columns, can provide Thermo mass spec users the ability to supercharge the sensitivity of their existing instruments. Our columns enable researchers to delve deeper into their samples than ever before.” Mr Perronnet continues.

The combination of IonOpticks’ proprietary nanoZero® fittings and integrated emitter with the new TS range removes all pre- and post-column dead volume, maximizing the capacity of the chromatographic packed bed to separate samples. Further, the heating solution in the TS is reusable which saves users both time and money while reducing unnecessary waste.

The TS range was developed following the paradigm-shifting release of the Aurora Frontier – the first ever column to routinely generate over 10,000 protein identifications on a Thermo mass spectrometer – from a single sample and single species.

“The results that have been achieved with our Aurora Frontier have been outstanding and we’re proud to continue to develop products that enable us to ensure access to these gains is equal for all researchers,” says Dr Jarrod Sandow, Head of Product Development at IonOpticks.

“Thermo users continue to be top customers of our products, so we’ve worked hard behind the scenes to ensure these users can easily boost the performance of their existing instruments through a simple all-in-one heating and source integration system. One that requires no complex installation and is ready to use straight out of the box,” Dr Sandow adds.

IonOpticks is committed to ensuring the world’s best chromatography is available to all mass spec users. Alongside the TS, IonOpticks have also launched the SX, a fully integrated column heating and interface solution for SCIEX users.

Notice Regarding The Launch of “MtechA”, an M&A intermediary Digital Transformation service


TOKYO, March 2, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — GA technologies Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-Ku, Tokyo; CEO: Ryo Higuchi; Securities Code: 3491 the “Company”) hereby announces the launch of new business in our group, “MtechA”, an M&A intermediary digital transformation service. This service follows the Group’s online real estate marketplace “RENOSY” and real estate digital transformation business “ITANDI” and is the Group’s first venture outside the field of real estate. MtechA Inc. was already established on August 1, 2022, and today, March 1, 2023,  we are pleased to announce as a voluntary disclosure that we have decided to officially begin offering our services as follows.

1. Purpose and Background of Service Launch

Since our founding in 2013, we have promoted digital transformation in the real estate industry, which has been considered analog, based on our corporate philosophy of “Building a world leading company that inspires and impresses people with the power of technology and innovation.” We have strived to improve the quality of business operations in the real estate industry by accelerating the PDCA cycle and integrating technology with real estate transaction practices such as streamlining operations using technologies such as AI and RPA, shifting operations online, and improving the customer experience through the use of data. As a result, after10 years since our founding, consolidated group sales have exceeded 100 billion yen, and we have earned a reputation for promoting digital transformation in the analog industry, including being the only company in the growth market to be selected as a Digital Transformation Stock for three consecutive years (*1).

Meanwhile, approximately 2.45 million top management of small-and medium-sized businesses in Japan will be 70 years old or older by 2025, and of these, about 1.27 million face the problem of lack of successors (*2). In 2022, the number of business closures and dissolutions totaled 53,426, showing a downward trend for the third consecutive year following 2021. However, more than half of the companies were still profitable when they closed, and the loss of employment opportunities due to profitable business closures exceeded 80,000 people and the total lost sales amounted to 2.3677 trillion yen(*3). Since the lack of successors in these small and medium-sized businesses leads to a decline in Japan’s GDP and loss of high-quality technology and employment opportunities that there have been revisions to the system and the establishment of guidelines in recent years to make M&A an option for business succession. As a result of this trend, the number of domestic M&A transactions has been increasing, reaching a record high of 4,280 in 2021 (*4). The number of M&A intermediaries and platforms is also increasing, with the number of M&A support organizations totaling approximately 2,900 (*5) as of January 2023.

Given these circumstances, we have decided to enter the M&A intermediary business, an area in which we can horizontally expand the successful structure we have established in the real estate field, and where we can expect synergies.

2. Overview of Services

While the number of M&As has increased in recent years (*4) and is garnering attention as a means of solving social issues, many of their operations and processes are analog and dependent on individual skills. Based on our track record of promoting real estate digital transformation, we will bring technology into the field of M&A intermediary services to improve the overall quality of the M&A experience by increasing the transparency of transactions and making all parties involved more comfortable.

I.  Utilizing expertise accumulated in real estate digital transformation, including the use of AI, in the field of M&A

We will provide services that leverage our planning and development capabilities, which have enabled the completion of all procedures necessary to lease, buy, and sell real estate online, and the research and development systems of our in-house AI research organization, which has reduced real estate procurement work to a third of what it used to be.

II.  Customer-oriented services that combine technology and human skills

Members with proven track records in the industry have already joined MtechA, including consultants for major Japanese M&A intermediary firms and product managers for major Japanese M&A platforms. The combination of our development capabilities with personnel who are well versed in the M&A industry and practices, we provide the services and products that our clients, including business managers, truly seek.

III.  Integrated support for asset management after business transfer

MtechA can provide asset management support for business owners after the transfer of their business, using RENOSY. RENOSY offers an extensive lineup of pre-owned compact condominiums and one-unit apartments in central Tokyo, as well as overseas real estate, and more which allows us to provide comprehensive support for issues related to home purchasing, leasing and land use.
