On behalf of Abstergo Industries it is a pleasure to welcome members of the Press to the Abstergo Public Relations Office.

I look forward to engaging the public concerning Abstergo's operations and vast portfolio of businesses. All questions are welcome, as Abstergo intends to maintain the reputation of corporate transparency and honesty which was built by Orchid Capital. Announcements concerning new products, research developments and other developments concerning Abstergo Industries will also be released from this Office.

Beatrice:

Abstergo Industries has long been in search of a regional headquarters for the Illumic-Cotf Aranye region. Whilst previous efforts have focused upon Technology City Acting CEO Albert Relkin has confirmed his interests in establishing such a headquarters within the Conglomerate. Highlighting the Conglomerate's established business-friendly atmosphere Mr. Relkin identified the Conglomerate as his preferred choice, citing other options as having been preferred by former CEO Bateson. Mr. Relkin has been attached to a visit to the Conglomerate involving Empress Beatrice in the hopes of securing favourable terms for the establishment of the regional headquarters.

AI: A New Tool In Fighting The Challenge Of Antibiotic Resistance

Antibiotic resistance represents a growing crisis for medical professionals across Mundus, with the potential for tens of millions of unnecessary deaths estimated by 2050 if the current course is maintained. This situation, generated by an increasing number of pathogens developing resistant to present antibiotics, has demanded new approaches to be taken to ensure that essential medications continue to be available for generations to come.

To do our part in tackling the crisis of antibiotic resistance the Medical Research Division turned to a machine learning algorithm to identify what we believe is a new and promising antibiotic compound. In tests thus far the drug has proven effective in killing a host of bacteria responsible for some of Mundus' most troubling illnesses, amongst them some strains known to be resistant to contemporary antibiotics. In two different mouse models it also showed the capacity to clear infections.

The computer model achieved these results by screening more than a hundred million chemical compounds in mere days, selecting those antibiotics that kill bacteria via mechanisms different than those of existing drugs. The molecule which this research has revealed, which the MRD is calling Herne+, may arguably be one of the most potent antibiotics discovered to date.

Throughout the course of this research the MDR has identified other promising antibiotic candidates which will be tested further. The machine learning model, which bypasses traditional experimental approaches which often prove to be prohibitively expensive, may further yield the potential to design new drugs exists based upon what it has learned about the chemical structures that enable drugs to kill bacteria.

While these developments are promising the MDR has further research and development before utilization of this process is viable in human medicine. Our team will be certain to post updates as progress is made toward this important goal.

A Statement On Abstergo Heyra

With notice that the Heyran Republic is conducting an investigation to "requisition" the purchase by Abstergo Industries of core and sensitive industries and infrastructures within the Heyran Republic Abstergo Industries believes that the facts will vindicate our corporation in this investigation. The mission of Abstergo Industries, "For a better life and a brighter future" apply to each and every action we take. Abstergo Heyra is no different, nor are the Heyran customers which Abstergo has long stated its desires to serve to the best of our capacity. We are also confident that our position to manage the industries and infrastructure which we purchased is unchallenged by any potential buyer the Republic may find should they seek to rescind the sale of these assets to Abstergo Industries.

Abstergo Industries is also confident that the ownership structure, and commitment to the maintenance of existing Heyran jobs as well as the creation of new Heyran jobs are likewise incapable of being matched by would-be buyers. Rokkenjiman control of key Heyran industries and infrastructures does not exist; these are assets which are owned by Abstergo Industries, which operates independently of the Imperial Government of Rokkenjima. While the Anselmo Family does own a controlling stake of Abstergo Industries it has been made quite clear by our CEO and governing structure that the decisions and policies of Abstergo are not an extension of Rokkenjiman foreign policy, and will not be used as such.

It is the hopes of Abstergo Industries that this investigation shall be concluded swiftly so we may return to full, normal operations within the Heyran Republic. While provisional plans will naturally be drafted, it is our hopes they shall not prove necessary.
