Earlier this week, the Florida CEO Delegation explored the future of mobility, clean energy, and smart infrastructure. We toured Masdar City, a pioneering smart city built on sustainability and renewable energy, and visited the Technology Innovation Institute to discuss scalable applications of AI and climate technology. We also met with M42 and G42 to explore the intersection of health innovation, data science, and emerging technologies. The day concluded with a visit to Aldar, one of the region’s leading development companies, for a conversation on smart urban planning and real estate innovation. These global insights support Florida’s vision to become a top 3 state for technology jobs and a leader in smart, sustainable innovation. #SmartCities #AI #SustainableTech #CleanEnergy #UrbanInnovation #FloridaDelegationUAE #Florida2030

Visium will be an integral part of our defense against the next pandemic. Our technology was featured on CBS, highlighting the exponential effectiveness of Far-UVC light in neutralizing pathogens as a part of Mount Sinai’s Infection Prevention Infrastructure. https://lnkd.in/e_uu5sTH

Indoor air is a clinical risk — and U.S. healthcare facilities need a smarter, safer way to manage it. This recent article from Open Access Government featuring P. Jacob Bueno de Mesquita, PhD underscores what many of us already know: airborne pathogens like influenza, RSV, and SARS-CoV-2 drive millions of infections each year — many acquired in hospitals, clinics, and long-term care settings. Germicidal UV-C has long been trusted for episodic decontamination in unoccupied rooms — but the technology has evolved. With the innovation of Filtered Far-UVC, we can now deliver the same high-level inactivation of airborne viruses and bacteria — continuously and safely, when and where people are present. At Lit Thinking, we’ve developed Visium, a first-of-its-kind Far-UVC system designed for real-time use in clinical environments: ✅ First Far-UVC device to earn UL-8802 certification for photobiological safety ✅ Meets CARB ozone emission standards ✅ Rapidly inactivates airborne pathogens ✅ Continuously reduces surface pathogens like MRSA ✅ Safe for patients and staff — quiet, discreet, and always working Healthcare leaders now have a way to build a robust infection prevention infrastructure with Visium Far-UVC — seamlessly integrating continuous sanitization into everyday care, without disrupting the environment or patient flow. 📖 Read the article: https://lnkd.in/gh8GvWiR 🌐 Learn more about Visium: www.litthinking.com #VisiumFarUVC #InfectionPrevention #PatientSafety #HealthcareLeadership #IndoorAirQuality #UL8802 #CARB #FarUVC #HospitalSafety #222nm

In the latest episode of "2 Minutes and 22 Seconds with Dr. Holger Claus," we explore how filtered Far UV-C light offers a safe and effective way to reduce airborne viruses and bacteria in occupied spaces. 🔍 Key takeaways from this episode: ✔️ Far UV-C can decrease germs in the air and on surfaces by over 98% ✔️ Unlike traditional UV-C, it’s safe for use around people ✔️ A practical, efficient solution for creating cleaner environments This technology is redefining what’s possible for infection prevention in schools, hospitals, offices, and more. 📽️ Watch the episode here: https://lnkd.in/gsM8iQR7 Let’s discuss: Where do you see the greatest potential for Far UV-C technology? #FarUVC #CleanAir #InfectionPrevention #Care222 #Innovation

Meet Dr. Janet Price, PhD, Chief Science Officer at Lit Thinking. Dr. Price is shedding light on a critical public #health conversation—how Far-UVC can play a vital role against #measles outbreaks. Measles is highly contagious, and while #vaccines are an essential defense, they’re not a perfect solution for everyone. Some people don’t sustain immunity, and others can’t receive the vaccine due to health conditions. That’s why layered protection is key—and Far-UVC is a proven #technology that can help. In 1941, researchers demonstrated that UVC light could significantly reduce measles transmission in #schools. Today, with advanced solutions like #Visium Far-UVC, we have the opportunity to apply this technology more effectively than ever before. As measles cases rise, it’s time to think beyond traditional strategies and embrace proven, science-backed solutions to keep our shared spaces cleaner. Check out Dr. Price's post below to learn more. #FarUVC #PublicHealth #MeaslesPrevention #Visium

We had the privilege of speaking with Dr. David Brenner, Director of the Center for Radiological Research at Columbia University, about the groundbreaking work he and other scientists have done on Far UV-C light and its potential to improve public health. 📽️ In this interview, Dr. Brenner discusses: ✔️ The science behind Far UV-C and how it works ✔️ Years of research on its safety and effectiveness ✔️ How Far UV-C could be a game-changer for making public spaces healthier and safer As we continue to face challenges around infection prevention, this conversation highlights why Far UV-C is one of the most promising technologies for protecting indoor spaces. 📺 Watch the full interview here: https://lnkd.in/gX9MbJWR Discover how Care222 is bringing this transformative technology to real-world applications.

Hospitals battle Candida auris, MRSA, CRE, and C. diff daily—pathogens that resist antibiotics and can linger on surfaces despite strict cleaning protocols. Now, new research is showing that FAR UVC technology may offer a powerful, continuous disinfection tool to help reduce these threats. 🔬 Key findings from three groundbreaking studies: ✔️ FAR UVC inactivates drug-resistant pathogens in real-world hospital settings ✔️ Safe for use in occupied spaces, with automated UV exposure adjustments ✔️ Works as a complementary infection control measure With hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) leading to thousands of deaths each year, the need for innovative solutions has never been greater. 📽️ Watch the full video to see the research in action: https://lnkd.in/g8V2Xxxj What role do you think FAR UVC could play in the future of hospital infection prevention?
