Galderma (SIX: GALD) will showcase data from its leading innovative Injectable Aesthetics portfolio at the Aesthetic & Anti-Aging Medicine World Congress (AMWC) taking place in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE), from October 21-23, 2026. The company will present eight scientific abstracts, alongside a symposium and six Meet-the-Expert sessions, all highlighting the expanding benefits of Relfydess, Sculptra, and the Restylane range.1-8 Together, the data demonstrate Galderma’s commitment to meeting the evolving needs of patients and healthcare professionals through innovation that addresses growing needs, from menopause-related skin changes and regenerative aesthetic solutions, to body indications.

Data across face and body indications showcase the power of Sculptra and Restylane
Data on Sculptra, the first proven regenerative biostimulator, will be shared at AMWC Dubai, following its approval in the UAE expanding its current clinical application for the face to include key body areas: the gluteal area, posterior thighs and décolletage.9 Guidance from an international consensus panel of 11 experts will be presented, outlining evidence-based recommendations on appropriate combination strategies across approved body indications.1 The recommendations highlight the complementary benefits of Sculptra and Restylane SkinboostersTM in the posterior thighs, and gluteal area, for comprehensive body rejuvenation.1

Data from Restylane ShaypeTM – the first-and-only hyaluronic acid (HA) shaper developed with novel NASHA-HD™ technology as well as expanded indications for Restylane LyftTM and Restylane VolymeTM* are being presented with clinical evidence in the chin, jawline, temples, and lower face.2 Across four studies, Restylane delivered well-tolerated, effective, and long-lasting aesthetic improvements in multiple facial regions, consistently achieving high responder rates and high subject satisfaction.2

Additionally, addressing the growing demand for body rejuvenation, data evaluating the effectiveness and safety of Restylane Skinboosters for correction of moderate-to-severe wrinkles in the décolletage will be shared at the congress, noting that the product was well tolerated and highly efficacious, with high patient satisfaction.3

In a dedicated symposium, international experts will discuss best practices for use of Galderma’s Injectable Aesthetics portfolio for the body through the AART™ (Assessment, Anatomy, Range, and Treatment) of Body - a patient-centric technique to evaluate needs and create structured individualized treatment plans. Content will highlight the UAE expanded indications for Sculptra in the gluteal area, posterior thighs, and décolletage.9 The symposium will take place Thursday, October 22, from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM GST, in Baniyas ballroom 1.

Galderma’s Injectable Aesthetics portfolio addresses diverse trends and rising new patient segments
Galderma will also share insights from a global survey of over 4,300 women across nine countries on menopause-related skin changes and aesthetic treatment considerations.4 Biostimulators and dermal fillers were the most frequently considered treatments for menopause-related facial and skin changes, with 80% of patients looking for information on Sculptra, and 75% for information on the Restylane range.4

Congress data also reinforces Sculptra’s ability to deliver long-term improvements in the mechanical properties of the skin, through volume restoration, improved elasticity and skin thickness.5 Seven experts evaluated the biostimulatory properties of Sculptra, with consensus on its key role in the regenerative aesthetic field.5

Relfydess delivers continued efficacy across facial indications
Data from the RELAX and EXPRESSION imaging trials confirmed early and sustained improvements in wrinkle morphology and dynamic skin strain in frown lines (glabellar lines) and crow’s feet (lateral canthal lines) following treatment with Relfydess.6 These findings reinforce that Relfydess delivers a rapid onset, durable efficacy, and measurable improvements in both patient-reported outcomes and skin dynamics.6

Pooled phase III study data for Relfydess to be presented shows improvement in moderate-to-severe frown lines and crow’s feet for both toxin-naïve and previously treated patients.7 Galderma will also present expert-led consensus recommendations that address key unmet needs in real-world clinical practice, offering clear, practical guidance for optimal dosing, injection patterns and treatment planning with Relfydess.8

Relfydess, Sculptra, and Restylane are approved in various countries around the world; approved indications vary by market.

*Restylane Volyme is approved as Restylane Contour in the United States

Arini Announces Final Close of Inaugural Direct Lending Fund, Targeting Over $4 Billion of Deployment21.10.2026 09:00:00 CEST | Press Release

Arini, an alternative asset manager with $22 billion in assets under management as of 31 August 2026, today announces the final close of Arini Direct Lending Fund I. The Fund and related vehicles are targeting deployment of over $4 billion, including anticipated leverage, making it among the largest debut European direct lending funds ever raised. Arini has built a sizeable initial portfolio throughout the fundraise, focusing on senior secured loans to borrowers demonstrating recurring and underwritable cash flow profiles and operating in industries with limited risk of disruption. Total deployment for the strategy is now approaching $2 billion across a range of sectors and geographies, alongside founder-led, family-owned and sponsor-backed businesses. This scale of deployment, in conjunction with Arini’s highly selective underwriting standards, demonstrates the depth of the European middle market opportunity set. Unlike in the US, banks in Europe have a dominant market share in corpor

LemFi Launches Its Biggest Product Expansion Yet Alongside a New Global Brand, ‘Ambition has no passport’21.10.2026 09:00:00 CEST | Press Release

LemFi, the financial platform for people building lives across borders, today announced the launch of its new global brand platform, “Ambition has no passport”, alongside a completely rebuilt app, launching the largest product expansion in its history. More than two million customers use LemFi to move money to more than 30 countries, with over $2 billion in monthly transaction volume, and the company plans to add more countries next year. The expanded platform now includes savings and credit in the UK, eSIMs in more than 100 destinations, alongside LemFi’s existing international payments service. People who move countries arrive with a career, a qualification and a savings record, only to find that almost none of it counts. A credit history rarely survives a border crossing. Around 304 million people now live outside the country where they were born, sending some $905 billion home each year. Yet many financial services remain designed around individual products or customers living thei

Skechers Wins Major Victory Against Kizik in Patent Infringement Suit21.10.2026 09:00:00 CEST | Press Release

Skechers U.S.A., Inc. (“Skechers”), the third largest footwear company in the world and leader in hands-free footwear technology, announced today that it won a major legal and commercial victory in a patent infringement lawsuit filed by Fast IP, LLC (“Kizik”) against Skechers before the Unified Patent Court (“UPC”) in Munich. Skechers, the market leader in hands-free footwear, sells thousands of styles of hands-free shoes worldwide under its Slip-ins and Swift Fit trademarks.

Skechers won on three of the four styles, with the fourth being a minor and commercially insignificant style for Skechers. In its ruling, the Munich Court stated that Kizik’s infringement claims are “largely unfounded.” Skechers’ leading hands-free footwear position globally is the result of its product innovation, transforming the century-old idea of hands-free footwear into a true modern

Okomera Announces a Commercial Agreement With Servier to Use Its Tumor Miniaturization Technology for Cancer Research21.10.2026 08:00:00 CEST | Press Release

Okomera, a TechBio company pioneering personalized cancer care through a proprietary technology platform combining tumor mini-avatars, microfluidics, and AI-powered imaging, today announced the signing of a commercial agreement with Servier, an independent international pharmaceutical group, to use its technology in the development of new cancer treatments. With more than 90% of oncology drug candidates never reaching the market, identifying early on the therapeutic approaches most likely to succeed is a critical challenge for the pharmaceutical industry. Okomera’s technology helps precisely reduce this attrition, by steering development toward candidates that demonstrated real, measurable activity against tumors. This collaboration marks an important milestone for Okomera, which is signing its first commercial agreement with an international pharmaceutical group. Under the terms of the agreement, Servier will operate Okomera’s platform fully independently. Its teams will be able to ge
