SHERIDAN, WYOMING - December 19, 2025 - Merck said the EMA's CHMP has recommended approval of an expanded European indication for WINREVAIR (sotatercept) in adults with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a move that-if confirmed by the European Commission-could broaden use to include WHO Functional Class (FC) IV patients and strengthen the product's positioning around morbidity and mortality benefit.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING - December 19, 2025 - Merck Animal Health says the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted conditional approval for EXZOLT™ CATTLE-CA1 (fluralaner topical solution), positioning the pour-on as a new systemic parasiticide option for U.S. beef operations and replacement dairy heifers facing New World screwworm (Cochliomyia hominivorax) larvae (myiasis) risk and cattle fever tick (Rhipicephalus microplus) pressure.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING - December 19, 2025 - The FDA is considering awarding Commissioner's National Priority Vouchers to two investigational Merck programs-PCSK9 pill enlicitide decanoate and antibody-drug conjugate sacituzumab tirumotecan-an early signal that the agency may be willing to accelerate reviews for high-impact products even before formal filings, according to a Reuters report.

A new FDA lever that can reshape launch timing
Commissioner's National Priority Vouchers are designed to shorten the FDA's regulatory review window from the typical 10-12 months to 1-2 months. For large pharma, that time compression can meaningfully shift competitive dynamics-pulling forward commercialization, altering payer and guideline sequencing, and increasing the urgency of manufacturing readiness, launch supply, and field execution.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING - December 19, 2025 - Henry Schein One says adoption of its cloud-native Dentrix Ascend platform is accelerating as dental groups and DSOs move away from legacy practice management systems to standardize operations, reduce administrative friction, and embed AI into everyday workflows.

Cloud migration becomes a scaling decision, not an IT project
Across U.S. dentistry, consolidation and multi-location growth are forcing operators to treat practice management software as core infrastructure. Henry Schein One reported that nearly 600 practices migrated from alternative systems to Ascend over the past 12 months, adding to the broader Dentrix customer base of more than 48,000 practices using Dentrix technology for clinical, operational, and financial workflows. The company also said monthly Ascend installations more than doubled year over year as practices transitioned away from legacy setups.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING - December 18, 2025 - Motor Presse Stuttgart is kicking off a year-long anniversary cycle for its flagship automotive media brand auto motor und sport, marking 80 years of publishing with a premium-format XXL issue and a 2026 editorial program designed to deepen reach across print and digital channels.

An anniversary issue designed as a premium brand statement
Motor Presse Stuttgart is launching the jubilee year with an oversized special edition of auto motor und sport featuring a refined additional cover, larger format, and an expanded 232-page scope.

Brussels stand becomes a live lab for Citroën's electrification strategy

At the show, which opens to the public on 9 January 2026, Citroën is building a stand that mirrors its current transformation: colourful, modern and highly focused on accessible, electrified mobility. Alongside the world premiere of the ELO concept, visitors will see the new C5 Aircross as the brand's flagship SUV, the Ami in its new Dark Side edition, and a Formula E single-seater that signals Citroën's next era in electric motorsport.

For B2B stakeholders, the line-up illustrates how Citroën is repositioning its range around:

SHERIDAN, WYOMING - December 18, 2025 - A new B2B-focused nautical event, the Napoli Boat Show (NBS), will debut from March 18-22, 2026 at Marina di Stabia in Castellammare di Stabia, positioning itself as a "Boutique Boat Show" built around a simple commercial premise: every boat on display is ready to sail, and sea trials are the norm rather than the exception.

A "Ready-to-Sea" exhibition model built for sales conversations
Unlike traditional dockside showcases, NBS is designed to reverse exhibition logic by putting on-water testing at the center of the buying process. The show's proposition is that there is a material difference between viewing a vessel moored at the quay and experiencing it underway-especially in a setting that allows shipowners and professional buyers to evaluate handling, comfort, and performance in real conditions.
