HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 22 August 2025 – Southco Asia Ltd., a subsidiary of Southco Inc., a leading global provider of engineered access solutions such as locks, latches, captive fasteners, electronic access solutions and hinges/ positioning technology has introduced RA Rack Attach to the server industries.
RA Rack Attach
As the race for the best AI technology heats up, manufacturers are turning to liquid immersion cooling to stabilize the servers of the future. While this technology provides far superior cooling properties compared to traditional fans, it also brings a new set of challenges, particularly around maintenance. Server blades are packed extremely tightly in a small space and immersed in liquid coolant, which can make it difficult to remove a single blade for service.
During maintenance, screws can be dropped and lost in the enclosure and hands can slip on slick metal as technicians try to lift heavy, liquid-covered hardware. These mishaps risk costly damage to server blades, and more importantly, loss of server uptime. In this AI race, the more time you spend running the better off you are, and every second counts. That is why Southco is introducing the RA Rack Attach.
The RA Rack Attach replaces traditional screws that normally secure a server blade to a rack. Instead, those screws are used to attach the RA to the blade, and an integrated pawl secures the blade to the rack.
This pawl retracts when a technician presses an integrated trigger in the Rack Attach handle, providing easy release from the rack, and a secure grip for the technician as they lift out the blade in one fluid motion. No more screws slowing down maintenance, and increased uptime for servers as they support the tech of the future.
While space is at a premium in these liquid cooled server racks, the RA Rack Attach barely takes up any. The device is only 7mm thick, but its steel construction enables it to support 50kg of weight. Technicians get a strong, ergonomic grip with barely any space used by the Rack Attach.
These features drastically decrease maintenance time and risk of damage and injury to technicians. Implementing the Southco RA Rack Attach means lower costs, increased uptime, and a leg up in the race to power the technology of the future.

SINGAPORE, Aug. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Imani, South Korea’s leading breast pump manufacturer, proudly announces the official Singapore launch of the Imani i2plus Pro Series, the next evolution in breastfeeding innovation with the world’s first hands-free cup with just two parts. Known for setting the gold standard in wearable breast pump technology, Imani continues to redefine what modern moms can expect from their breastfeeding journey.
This groundbreaking launch is brought to Singapore exclusively through Mama Warehouse, the official distributor of Imani Singapore, ensuring moms here have trusted access to this latest breast pump innovation.
Korean Innovation, Trusted by Moms Worldwide
Designed and manufactured in South Korea under strict safety standards, Imani has earned the trust of mothers worldwide for its discreet design, powerful suction, and ease of use. The brand gained recognition with its breakthrough wearable pumps, the i2 and i2plus, and further solidified its place as an industry leader with the i2plus with iBox, the world’s first 2-in-1 wearable and hospital-grade pump. When used on its own, the i2plus offers moms the freedom of a hands-free, compact wearable pump. When connected to the iBox unit, it transforms into an efficient hospital-grade system that’s ideal for boosting milk supply or supporting more intensive pumping needs. This unique versatility gives moms the flexibility to switch between lightweight convenience and full-powered performance in a single product.
Now, Imani introduces the next evolution in breastfeeding technology: the i2plus Pro Series — built to make motherhood simpler, smarter, and more efficient.
i2plus Pro Series: Simpler. Smarter. Stronger.
At the heart of the i2plus Pro Series is the world’s first hands-free collection cup with only two parts, a dramatic improvement from the typical four to five-part designs that dominate the market. This innovation is more than just convenience, it is a lifestyle upgrade for busy parents.
Why Moms Are Loving It:
Only Two Parts to Clean Say goodbye to time-consuming washing and confusing assembly. With only two parts per cup, moms spend less time maintaining their pump and more time doing what matters most.
Stronger, Longer Performance The new i2plus Pro motors offer up to 3.5 hours of battery life, equivalent to approximately 8-10 pumping sessions, and a powerful 300mmHg suction strength, making it ideal for moms seeking both freedom and performance.
2-in-1 Flexibility Lives On Available in two configurations: the i2plus Pro wearable pump, and the i2plus Pro with iBox, which gives moms both a hospital-grade pump and a wearable pump in one system. The upgraded Pro cups work with both models for total convenience.
Cross-Compatible Pro Cups The new Pro cups aren’t just for Imani. They also work with traditional tubing/air hose-based breast pumps, adding unmatched versatility for multi-pump users.
Singapore Launch Sees Strong Demand
Since launching in Singapore in June 2025, the i2plus Pro Series has seen overwhelming demand. Moms across the country have eagerly upgraded from previous Imani models, while many have switched from other brands to enjoy the efficiency and simplicity of the new two-part Pro cups. Due to the strong response, the series was briefly out of stock shortly after launch, but it is now fully restocked and available online and in major baby product retail stores.
While the trade-in promotion has officially ended, moms can still look forward to exclusive deals at major baby fairs and online sale events.

High-Efficiency TIL Expansion Process – Enabling robust TIL expansion not only from surgical resection samples but also from biopsy samples, while preserving high antitumor activity. This addresses the challenge of obtaining surgical samples from late-stage cancer patients. Additionally, both primary tumor samples and final cell products can be cryopreserved, eliminating logistical constraints.
Enhancing Memory T Cell Populations – Through proprietary rapid expansion protocols, Biosyngen has achieved an 8-fold increase in central memory T cells (TCM) within the final product while maintaining optimal CD8+ T cell ratios, which are critical for durable therapeutic effects.
Gene Editing to Augment TIL Functionality – Utilizing a lentiviral transfection system, Biosyngen ensures stable genetic modification of TILs, enhancing their persistence antitumor activity in vivo, with a transduction efficiency exceeding 50%.
Tumor Antigen-Specific T Cell Enrichment – By leveraging specific biomarkers or selective expansion techniques, Biosyngen enriches antigen-specific T cells, thereby improving clinical response rates.
From Singapore to China: Asia’s Biopharma Innovation Ecosystem Gains Momentum
Following the successful conclusion of the Singapore summit, the Chengdu and Shenzhen editions will take place in late August, focusing on regional biopharma policies, innovation ecosystem development, and industry-academia collaboration. A prevailing consensus among experts is that ADC and CGT technologies will serve as key drivers of oncology innovation over the next decade. With its dynamic R&D landscape, vast market potential, and strong policy support, Asia is rapidly emerging as the new global powerhouse for biopharmaceutical breakthroughs.
By facilitating cross-border knowledge exchange and cutting-edge technology sharing, the Asia BIO Innovation Summit has not only strengthened global collaboration but also injected fresh momentum into the leapfrog development of Asia’s biopharma industry.
