Amaia Barredo believes that “the Basque Country is opening a great door to relations with Japan in the food, gastronomy and beverage sectors.” This morning, Barredo presented the Rioja Alavesa vineyards and wineries in Laguardia to a delegation of sixteen Japanese salespeople, importers, chefs, specialized journalists, and influencers. During these days, they will also visit Bilbao, San Sebastián, and Vitoria-Gasteiz.

Last October, a delegation of Basque wineries sparked interest in Basque wines and ciders in Osaka and Tokyo. “This welcome is very special for those of you who make up the Japanese delegation who are visiting our country these days to learn about our most emblematic products: Rioja Alavesa wines, txakolies, and ciders,” the Minister told the Japanese delegation.

“The Basque Country and Japan maintain an excellent cultural relationship in terms of identity and human values. This closeness has also grown and intensified in recent years in the culinary field. This collaboration is reflected in various initiatives and projects that seek to promote and strengthen ties between the two countries,” Mrs Barredo commented.

In the culinary field, the Basque Country has enjoyed significant recognition in Japan, driven by public and private projects such as collaborations between chefs and sommeliers, restaurants in Japan promoted by Basque chefs, and those managed by Japanese chefs trained in the Basque Country: chefs Yoshitsugu YamamotoOsaka– and Ryusuke Nakano, Hokkaido

Alma CEO Lior Dayan introduces Alma IQ — a smart new imaging platform transforming skin consultations into visually engaging experiences

Introduced to a global audience through exclusive live demonstrations, Alma IQ, redefines how practitioners and patients approach aesthetic care from the very first consultation. By delivering real-time, high-definition insights beneath the skin’s surface, the platform reveals what the eye cannot see, empowering aesthetic professionals to make informed decisions with unprecedented precision.

At the core of Alma IQ is a powerful multi-modal imaging system developed in collaboration with Sylton, a global leader in aesthetic skin visualization. In under 10 seconds, it captures high-resolution images using specialized light modes: True UV, Cross Polarized, Parallel Polarized, and proprietary 360° Light Technology.

“Advanced personalization starts with clarity,” said Lior Dayan, CEO of Alma and Sisram Medical. “In aesthetics, the ability to truly see what lies beneath the surface is everything—it’s the power to see what others can’t, and to treat what others don’t.”

He continued: “Alma IQ delivers that clarity in a way that’s both immediate and deeply personal. This is more than technology. It’s a shift in how we connect and communicate with patients. It transforms the consultation into a moment of insight and trust—establishing a new foundation for intelligent, personalized aesthetic care.”

In alignment with this year’s theme, “The Art of the Patient,” each shared advanced clinical strategies and uncovered patient perspectives that put personalization at the forefront of the practice. Among the topics covered were skin aging, pigmentation, scarring, skin tightening, and rejuvenation.

The event also featured live demonstrations of Alma’s award-winning portfolio of technologies including Alma Harmony, the multi-application platform renowned for its versatility in aesthetic and skin rejuvenation treatments, alongside Harmony Bio-Boost, the brand’s signature facial designed to deliver plump, glowing skin with no downtime.

Wiltson’s Revolutionary Low-Temperature Battery Tech Conquers Mount Everest, Unlocking Extreme Reliability for Demanding US Power Applications

DONGGUAN, China, May 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Wiltson Energy, a leading innovator in low-temperature lithium battery technology, today announced a groundbreaking achievement, demonstrating unmatched reliability for demanding power solutions in the United States and globally. The company’s proprietary low-temperature battery system successfully supported a critical national Mount Everest expedition, delivering flawless, zero-maintenance performance at an altitude of 29,032 feet. This powerful system ensured the continuous operation of the world’s highest automatic weather station and vital ice core drilling equipment under some of the planet’s most extreme conditions.

Wiltson Low-Temperature LFP Battery
Wiltson Low-Temperature LFP Battery

Operating in the extreme conditions of Mount Everest, with temperatures plummeting to -40°C (-40°F), severe low air pressure, and ultra-high altitude, has historically posed formidable challenges for battery technology. Previous solutions utilizing standard or externally heated batteries, including ternary lithium and conventional lithium iron phosphate, struggled to provide the necessary sustained power and long-term stability required for critical scientific operations.

Wiltson’s engineering team successfully overcame these formidable challenges by leveraging their advanced low-temperature LiFePO4 battery technology, conquering three key obstacles:

  1. Exceptional Discharge Performance in Extreme Cold: Achieving over 80% discharge efficiency at -40°C (-40°F), comparable to normal temperature operation., ensured critical equipment remained reliably powered.
  2. Direct Solar Charging Capability at Freezing Temperatures: Enabling direct charging via solar power at temperatures as low as 0°C (32°F) eliminated the need for complex, energy-consuming heating systems and solved the critical challenge of energy replenishment in remote, frigid locations.
  3. Robust Pressure-Resistant Design: Employing a durable cylindrical steel case design effectively mitigated the risk of pressure differential failures common at extreme altitudes and low atmospheric pressure, ensuring consistent, reliable operation.

This successful mission unequivocally validated the exceptional reliability and resilience of Wiltson’s battery technology in the world’s most challenging environments. The battery system provided continuous, uninterrupted power to the scientific equipment for an impressive 12 days without any external power source or maintenance requirements.

This proven capability has broad applications, particularly for demanding environments across the United States, including scientific research in polar or high-altitude regions, critical infrastructure in cold climates (like remote monitoring or telecommunications), and robust outdoor photovoltaic power solutions. Unlike conventional low-temperature approaches that rely on external heating, Wiltson’s direct low-temperature lithium battery core allows for seamless charging and discharging in temperatures as low as -40°C (-40°F). This ‘no-heat-needed’ approach results in a significantly more direct, efficient, and dependable battery product design, effectively eliminating cold weather as a barrier to high-performance lithium battery use. Backed by international certifications including UL, CB, CE, UN38.3 and REACH, Wiltson leverages the inherent safety and long cycle life of lithium iron phosphate chemistry to deliver this revolutionary performance.

“Successfully powering critical scientific equipment on Mount Everest, enduring temperatures down to -40°C and extreme low pressure for 12 days, is a monumental achievement for Wiltson Energy,” said Robert Xie, Wiltson’s Chairman and CTO. “This mission unequivocally demonstrates the unmatched reliability and performance of our low-temperature battery technology in the world’s most demanding environments. We are incredibly proud of this validation and are eager to bring these proven capabilities to customers across the US market who face similar challenges requiring dependable power in extreme cold, high altitude, or remote locations. This technology changes what’s possible for applications from scientific research and polar expeditions to critical infrastructure and off-grid solar.”

About Wiltson Energy

Wiltson Energy specializes in the research, development, and production of ultra-low temperature lithium iron phosphate batteries and high-rate lithium batteries. Headquartered in Dongguan, China, the company’s innovative battery solutions are designed for demanding applications, including but not limited to, solar streetlights, remote monitoring systems, IoT devices, and extreme environment power storage. With a customer-centric mission, Wiltson is dedicated to providing advanced, reliable lithium battery technology solutions for global operations facing extreme conditions.
