London (PRWEB UK) 22 May 2015

Leading London Aesthetic Physician, Dr Barbara Kubicka MD at ClinicBe, announces innovative skin treatments for dealing with summer skin problems, helping patients to look better and feel more confident in their appearance too.

As the early summers starts to unfold, many clients are caught out by the change in seasons and delayering of clothing, which can trigger or expose new or forgotten skin problems. Dr Barbara Kubicka MD , CIME/ICAM, MBCAM, the Aesthetic Physician behind ClinicBe (London) explains:

“The influence of the weather on the appearance of the skin is immense in the UK, where the climate changes radically between the seasons, bringing changes in humidity and UV exposure as well as temperature. The weather pattern is inconsistent – hot one day, cold and rainy the next – and this can all take its toll on the skin. Yet as the summer progresses, people naturally want to bare their skin more and are concerned about the appearance of any problems or issues.”

“Innovative use of modern aesthetic medicine offers new options for treating summer skin problems, helping patients to look good and feel confident in the warmer months.”

The first suggestion on Dr Kubicka’s list is treatment to stop the ageing appearance of lines around the eyes and on the forehead which naturally happens as people squint in brighter sunshine. Dr Kubicka says:

“It’s a problem that many patients mention in the summer months, as they feel more aware of the lines and wrinkles that are developing and concerned about them getting worse with the involuntary facial movements caused by bright sun light. Cosmetic injections are an excellent solution to this problem. The idea isn’t to stop the squinting movement itself, which is the body’s natural defence to protect the eyes. Rather the objective is to relax the associated movements which cause lines to appear, which has the longer term benefit of impairing the repeated movements which can cause the lines to get worse.”

A second suggestion is to manage the natural problem of sweating, which some people find more difficult to manage than others. The condition of excessive sweating or hyperhidrosis affects a great many people, causing uncomfortable and visible levels of sweat, which can appear as damp patches on clothing and might even have an odour.

Dr Barbara Kubicka explains:

“In a work environment or for a big social occasion, hyperhidrosis can be very embarrassing and difficult, as stressful situations make it even more obvious. Hyperhidrosis injections are now much better known and a very popular option among men and women from all walks of life. They are a non-invasive option which will simply dry up the sweat for months at a time.”

Finally, Dr Kubicka suggests an innovative solution to the problem of hard, dry and cracked foot skin, which is uncomfortable as well as unsightly when exposed with bare feet. Taking the idea of handheld exfoliating devices a step further, Dr Kubicka offers a chemical peel to break down the outer layers of hard dead skin, kick-starting a peeling process which then encourages new skin cells to form. This treatment can be very helpful in recovering healthier skin for the feet.

Dr Kubicka concludes:

“As an aesthetic professional, I find this industry incredibly exciting. We are constantly finding more uses for the techniques and treatments which enable us to treat more conditions, helping our patients to look good and feel good too.”

ClinicBe® is conveniently situated on the border of Belgravia/Knightsbridge and is popular with patients living or working in the West London area, including Chelsea, Kensington and Mayfair although patients also travel from across the UK and even overseas to visit Dr Kubicka. The clinic offers an extensive range of cosmetic, cosmetology and medical skin treatments.

Dr Barbara Kubicka MD, CIME/ICAM, MBCAM leads the clinic as a fully qualified doctor, registered with the GMC and with additional qualifications in aesthetic treatments from the world-renowned College de International de Medicine Esthetique in Paris. She is renowned for her integrated, holistic approach to skin and healthcare as well as her innovative approach to skin treatments including her creation of a number of exclusive treatments.

Wilmington, Del. (PRWEB) May 15, 2015

The 2015 DuPont Awards for Packaging Innovation will be remembered as the year of design as 77 percent of the winners are being honored for design excellence in enhancing the users’ experience. Canada-based IPL, Inc., earned the Diamond Award, the program’s highest honor, for SkinnyPack™ Technology. This mono-material package marries flexible and rigid packaging to create a thin, light, strong structure that uses less material, enables recycling and allows more message space.

“This year’s winners stand out as leaders in packaging innovation,” said William J. Harvey, president, DuPont Packaging & Industrial Polymers. “They exemplify how collaboration, innovation and packaging excellence converge to generate game-changing solutions that positively impact our lives.”

The DuPont Awards for Packaging Innovation is the industry’s longest-running, global, independently judged celebration of innovation and collaboration throughout the value chain. An independent panel of packaging experts evaluated nearly 140 entries from more than 25 countries and last night awarded one diamond winner, five gold winners and seven silver winners based on “excellence” in one, two or all three categories: technological advancement, responsible packaging and enhanced user experience.

“The winners demonstrated the power of integrating precision engineering, design and technology in a way that brings multi-sensorial yet functional packaging to delight consumers,” according to Yasmin Siddiqi, DuPont Packaging Awards program leader.

“The novelty this year lies in the fact that we saw packaging designs that added intuitive functionality in a way that was both simple and meaningful for the user,” said David Luttenberger, CPP, global packaging director, Mintel Group, Ltd., USA and lead judge. “There’s frequently a lot of technology behind seemingly simple designs, but when you can design packaging in a way that resolves an issue and is intuitive to use, that’s value.”

2015 Diamond Winner

● Salsa Container Blends Rigid and Flexible for a Myriad of Possibilities, IPL, Inc. – Canada; Ana’s Foods – USA

Honored for Excellence in Technological Advancement, Responsible Packaging, and Enhanced User Experience

IPL’s new hybrid container is allowing Ana’s Foods to be a standout on store shelves. Through collaboration with IPL, Ana’s Foods replaced its rigid salsa containers with the SkinnyPack™, a flexible-rigid container that combines the advantages of thin, flexible film (lightweight, flexible, and printable) and the advantages of a strong, rigid frame (sturdy, structural component).

The SkinnyPack™, developed by IPL, is an injection molded polypropylene container that is made by fusing a thin, flexible in-mold label (IML) film to a sturdy, rigid frame. This process ensures that a strong adhesion exists between the film and injected plastic, allowing the packages to remain sturdy and strong throughout production, filling, transport, distribution and consumer use.

The lighter-weight, thin-walled SkinnyPack™ uses 54.8 percent less plastic than the original salsa containers. The mono-material packaging structure allows the container to be 100 percent recyclable. Prior to use, the empty SkinnyPack™ is nestable to maximize warehouse space. After use, the SkinnyPack™ can be easily crushed to optimize space during the recycling process. On each salsa package, Ana’s Foods communicates their commitment to sustainability with their consumers: “Tub made with less plastic for a greener world.”

The uniqueness of the SkinnyPack™ helps to differentiate itself on store shelves. The high-clarity film windows offer a look inside to give consumers confidence in the product prior to purchase. The in-mold labeling offers high-resolution graphics for high-impact shelf appeal.

The round mouth gives consumers easy access to the product inside while the square edges of the bottom provide better grip and handling.

The unique squround (square-round) shape of the container ensures distinction on store shelves while providing ease for food manufacturers to adopt the new package. The squround shape is compatible with most current packaging equipment, whether it is for square or round containers.

In developing the SkinnyPack™, IPL and Ana’s Foods took existing technology to a whole new level. With the properties of both flexible and rigid packaging, the SkinnyPack™ highlights the world of possibilities that exists for packaging.

2015 Gold Winners

● Squeezable Mascara Tube Ends Product Dispensing Frustrations, AmorePacific – Korea

Honored for Excellence in Technological Advancement and Enhanced User Experience

An eye-opening innovation, AmorePacific’s squeezable mascara tube eliminates consumer frustrations with inconsistent delivery, dried out product and inability to extract mascara from the tube.

This squeezable mascara tube is the first matte silicone mascara tube in the world. A hybrid package made of a silicone tube with an aluminum laminated inner pouch, the tube looks like a traditional mascara tube at first glance but surprises users with its enhanced features that address known market needs for functionality and consistent dosing.

With traditional mascara tubes, the high viscosity mascara tends to accumulate along the inner wall, becoming unreachable or dried out. The squeezable mascara tube allows users to soften, reposition the remaining mascara, and transfer the mascara to the applicator with just a light squeeze of the tube. This enables a consistent amount of mascara to be delivered every time so that users will get the same great experience with each application.

The enhanced functionalities of the squeezable mascara tube help to dramatically reduce the amount of unusable mascara remaining in the tube and extend the useful life of the mascara, while providing a unique tactile sensation.

● Deodorant Can Engineered to Combine Complexity with Simplicity, Unilever – UK

Honored for Excellence in Technological Advancement and Enhanced User Experience

The Axe and Lynx aerosol cans showcase an outstanding balance of technology and enhanced consumer experience. Every component of the deodorant can is specially designed to play a specific role in maximizing the consumer experience, reducing impact on the supply chain and maximizing efficiencies.

The vibrant aluminum cans feature a squround (half square, half round) shape to deliver a unique look while accommodating the industry standard 1 inch valve. The square body rotates to reveal the valve and trigger button, allowing consumers to experience the same twist-open action of the previous cans. As the body rotates, the button emerges from the flat top and tilts to provide a pleasing opening experience.

To eliminate leakage or accidental activation, the spray channel is designed to engage with the valve only when in the open position. When the valve is closed, the spray channel separates from the valve completely. The button, designed using insights gathered from consumer studies, activates regardless of how the consumer holds the can or where they press on the button.

With this aerosol can, Unilever took precise, high-level engineering and delivered it to the Axe/Lynx consumers in a sleek, yet sophisticated way that differentiates it from competition.

● “Travel-size” Truly Becomes “Carry-size” with New Ultra Slim Spray Bottle, MiiSTS Int’l. Inc.; HotPot Design– USA

Honored for Excellence in Technological Advancement and Enhanced User Experience

Need a blast of mouthwash? Wish you could fit a bottle of hand sanitizer in your designer jeans? MiiSTS™ ultra slim sprays makes it possible to easily carry premium everyday essentials for when you need them most. Helping to bring “Your Personal Care Anywhere,” MiiSTS™ bottles are establishing a new standard for convenience packaging.

MiiSTS™ is the only flat travel-size bottle in the market. The ultimate in portability and convenience, the MiiSTS ™ bottle is the rough dimensions of a credit card and just 5mm thick at its thinnest point. MiiSTS™ is fitted with a pump housing that allows consumers to spray the product while keeping the package leak-proof. The precise engineering of the tight welds on the very thin corners of the injection-molded, polypropylene bottle gives a smooth, virtually seamless, appealing finish.

The sleek and modern MiiSTS™ discreetly fits in tight pockets and bags with virtually no bulge. Each MiiSTS™ contains approximately 11mls (about 150 sprays) of the MiiSTS™ product, including natural hand sanitizer, natural insect repellent, sunscreen spray, lens cleaner, stain remover, burn and bite relief and more.

● Slider Technology Re-engineered to Keep Children Out of Easy-Open Packaging, Pactech Packaging; Reynolds Presto Products – USA

Honored for Excellence in Technological Advancement and Enhanced User Experience

As demand for convenience increases, manufacturers must develop packaging solutions that provide both easy opening and restricted access as needed. With over 20 years of experience producing child-resistant flexible pouches, Pactech Packaging partnered with Presto Products to develop a slider-based closure that has passed the testing requirements set forth in Title 16 CFR 1700 of the Poison Prevention Packaging Act (PPPA). This new technology will allow products that had been previously packaged in child-resistant boxes or bulky plastic containers to be packaged in flexible packaging.

Produced in a variety of sizes from 8.5” x 5” to 13.5” x 18” with and without a standup gusset, the size of the package is scalable to the size desired by the end user. This allows end users to keep a consistent look to their package while sizing it right for their products. Medi-CRREO™ Child Resistant Pouch offers increased graphic billboarding that cannot be seen on prescription bottles or rigid blister packaging. The Medi-CRREO™ with Child Guard™ closure also uses a high strength barrier material that is bite and tear proof.

Markets for the Medi-CRREO™ with Child Guard™ closure include food and consumer products as well as prescription medication, agricultural products and household chemical products.

● Medical Package Plays Vital Role in Surgery Preparation, Medtronic CardioVascular; Prent Corporation – USA

Honored for Excellence in Technological Advancement and Enhanced User Experience

Previous packages for TAVI catheter devices required significant hospital preparation and resources in preparing the catheters for use. The new EnVeo™ R Packaging is designed with added functionality that helps streamline the valve preparation and loading process before surgery.

The innovative tray provides a single user complete control and additional functionality during the preparation and loading of the valve onto the catheter. A reflective film strip is located within the integrated loading bath of the tray, giving the nurse a 360 degree visualization of the valve and all the attachment points to provide confidence and comfort of precise valve loading on the catheter.

A unique swivel feature in the tray design, along with locking features, allows the tray to be in a straight configuration during transportation, then manipulated through the swivel feature into a u-shaped configuration during valve loading in the surgery preparation.

With the new tray, aspects of the loading process are streamlined to reduce the burden on the operator, while still maintaining the tray’s primary role to contain the catheter in a sterile environment and deliver it securely to the end user. The tray helps reduce the labor needed for catheter preparation at hospitals by 50 percent.

No longer seen as packaging waste, the EnVeo™ R package has become an essential part of the surgical team.

2015 Silver Winners

● ORS Package Provides Simple, Life-Saving Solution, Mix Pak System S.L.; Interapothek – Spain

Honored for Excellence in Enhanced User Experience

Over 842,000 people in the world die annually from dehydration causes. About 750 million people worldwide lack access to clean water. Mix Pak System’s Oral-Rehydration-Salt (ORS) package addresses these needs to put life-saving treatment into the hands of the people who need it.

Mix Pak System, S.L. collaborated with Interapothek to develop a new product for its comprehensive pharmaceutical portfolio, an oral rehydration salt (ORS) serum.

The ORS package is a dual chamber pouch, with one compartment containing a precise dose of powder supplements and the other containing fresh water. The two chambers are separated by a frangible seal, made with DuPont™ Surlyn® resin, which can be opened by applying pressure on the water compartment. Once the seal is opened, both ingredients mix and the ORS is ready to be consumed.

The separation of the ingredients eliminates the need for refrigeration and increases the shelf life of the product to two years (mixed ORS packages have a shelf life of hours). This very simple packaging solution brings life-saving treatment to people in areas with no electricity, infrastructure or drinkable water.

● Super-sizing Peel-and-Reseal Technology for Club Store Cheese, Bemis Company, Inc. – USA

Honored for Excellence in Enhanced User Experience

The new BelGioioso Mild Provolone package raises the bar for resealable packaging at the club store level. Made up of two individually-sealed compartments, this transformational package provides consumer convenience by allowing the user to easily peel and reseal the package 20 times or more with fingertip pressure. What’s more, the perforation between the two compartments allows the consumer to easily separate without using a knife or scissors.

Bemis’ SmartTack™ EZ Peel® Reseal™ technology allows the individual cheese compartments to be sealed separately, preserving the freshness of the unused portion until opening and reducing food waste – all while creating differentiation at the club store level for BelGioioso Cheese.

● Razor Package Captures Senses with Multi-Dimensional Graphics, The Gillette Company – USA; think4D Inc. – Canada; Placon – USA

Honored for Excellence in Technological Advancement

The multi-dimensional graphics and eye-catching design of the Gillette® Venus® Swirl™ package give consumers a multi-sensory experience right at the store shelves. Printed with think4D technology, the thermoformed lid features a multi-dimensional silver ball printed and formed in precise detail to showcase the new FLEXIBALL™ design of the Venus® Swirl™ razor. The arched bottom tray reflects the razor’s own curves.

Typically, sealing to an arched surface is challenging and results in high scrap rates. This challenge was solved by using think4D’s pack-out system in which the multi-dimensional lids are packed hot right off the thermoforming line. The residual heat enables the lids to maintain the desired arc and lie nicely on top of the arched trays, minimizing spoilage and maximizing automation efficiencies during the heat-sealing process. With this package, Gillette and think4D take thermoforming of a printed substrate to a whole new level.

● Transportation Packaging – Now Stronger and More Responsible, Compadre, LLC – USA

Honored for Excellence in Responsible Packaging

Parcel and freight shipping are now more sustainable with the introduction of the Kübox easy crating system. This paper-based crate fills the need when customers want something lighter, less expensive and easier to use than the traditional wooden crates or plastic cases, but a corrugated box is not enough.

With half the weight of a wood crate and compression strength of over 5,000 pounds, the Kübox is both very light and very strong. Through innovative design, the Kübox can be easily and safely assembled/disassembled without tools and can be shipped/stored flat, saving on space, labor, and transportation costs.

The strength and durability of the Kübox ensure that the contents, from gallery artwork to aircraft engines, stay safe throughout delivery. After delivery, the Kübox can be reused in a variety of ways, most often as furniture and storage by consumers and for repetitive, out and back shipments by businesses.

● Conditioner Container Combines Functionality with Aesthetics to Embody Premium Brand, Godrej Consumer Products Ltd.; Classy Kontainers – India

Honored for Excellence in Enhanced User Experience

Godrej partnered with BBLUNT, a premium Indian salon chain, on the development of their first hair care product line.

BBLUNT conditioners have high viscosity which provides superior product performance, but are difficult to dispense from bottles made of regular polymers. Therefore, polyethylene copolymer with the lowest modulus was chosen for the bottles to provide great squeezability even at high wall thickness. However, the polyethylene copolymer made the surface dull and prone to scratching.

Godrej found that a thin layer of DuPont™ Surlyn® resin delivers superior surface gloss, scratch resistance and a rich feel. Processing the two polymers without a tie layer was a challenge as the difference in material rheology caused variations in wall thickness, parison sagging and improper blowing. Extensive trials were conducted with Classy Kontainers to stabilize the process and get consistent output.

The BBLUNT conditioner bottle conveys the essence of the premium BBLUNT brand through its bold shape and shine.

● Sampling Lipstick Puts Color on Lips and Confidence in Minds, Grupo Boticario; Ycar Artes Gráficas – Brazil

Honored for Excellence in Enhanced User Experience

Single-use lipstick sampling completely changes the lipstick sampling experience in Brazil. Makeup testing can be an unsanitary experience for consumers. The shared sampling pots in stores may become a breeding ground for bacteria and germs that can cause minor to serious skin problems or infections. To solve this issue, Grupo Boticario developed a new way to test lipstick that provides a simple, engaging, and sanitary experience for customers.

The sampling lipstick is a single dose of lipstick “printed” on coated cardboard through a process similar to graphic printing. To test, the consumer simply removes the plastic film, folds the cardboard in half and applies the lipstick directly to the lips, without needing to use fingers to spread the lipstick on. Each sampling lipstick is used once and then disposed. This simple, easy-to-use sampling solution offers consumers in Brazil a realistic preview of the lipstick color and texture and gives them confidence to purchase the product.

● Moisture-Proof Bag Protects India Cement Industry, UFLEX LIMITED – India

Honored for Excellence in Technological Advancement

The cement industry in India is the fourth largest in the world, but more than 3 percent of the cement produced is lost in the supply chain. This loss is largely attributed to the cement bags being stored in open environments across the supply chain, making them vulnerable to damages caused due to exposure of cement bags to rain, unpredictable outdoor conditions and extreme climate.

The Flex SafePack is specially designed to provide a barrier to moisture and water from entering into the bag, helping the cement withstand harsh environments and maintain its full functionality over an extended period of shelf life.

In developing the SafePack, UFLEX had to address two conflicting requirements: providing de-airation holes required for air to escape during filling and prohibiting moisture from entering into the bags during transportation. UFLEX was able to achieve this challenge through optimized nano-embossing over a flexible extrusion layer. This technological achievement also allows high definition graphics of up to 10 color printing, giving a premium look to a commodity product.

DuPont Packaging & Industrial Polymers manufactures an extensive mix of adhesive, peelable lidding and sealant resins and provides a globally networked development team to work with customers on packaging programs that help protect the product, environment, improve shelf appeal, convenience and reduce cost in the food, cosmetics, medical products and other consumer goods and industrial packaging industries.

DuPont (NYSE: DD) has been bringing world-class science and engineering to the global marketplace in the form of innovative products, materials, and services since 1802. The company believes that by collaborating with customers, governments, NGOs, and thought leaders we can help find solutions to such global challenges as providing enough healthy food for people everywhere, decreasing dependence on fossil fuels, and protecting life and the environment.

Losing weight, especially 100lbs or more, is a spectacular achievement that should be celebrated. It is the reward of weeks and often months of hard work and dedication, both in the gym and in the kitchen. Most people say that one of the things they look forward to most is the radical change in their outward appearance. Unfortunately, there is a side affect of massive weight loss that most people are unaware of, yet are often affected by—extra, lose sagging skin.

As we gain weight over the years, our skin has to stretch to accommodate the extra bulk. However, in the situation of massive weight loss the skin often will not return back into its natural starting position as one might hope. Instead, as body mass is reduced the body’s skin is left loss, hanging and sagging in unwanted places. This occurs over the entirely of the body, including the face and neck, and can be an unwelcome surprise for those who complete a major weight loss.

“Major weight loss from bariatric/gastric bypass surgery, diet, or exercise can accelerate aging and lead to sagging of the facial skin. Facial aging occurs faster in individuals who have lost significant weight because the fatty layer beneath the skin surface thins and diminishes at a much faster rate compared to a person who has not lost a lot of weight in a short period of time. Natural Facelift is an ideal for patient with massive weight loss”

Board certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Kevin Sadati, has developed a revolutionary procedure to correct and remove the excess skin called the Natural Facelift. Dr. Sadati has been nationally recognized for his self-developed facial muscle tightening technique, and published in major plastic surgery journals and publications. He often combines this renowned technique with Facial Fat Grafting utilizing Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP). By performing these two facial rejuvenation procedures simultaneously, the face is restored to its natural youthfulness, combating the affects of major weight loss.

Dr. Kevin Sadati is one of the top California facial plastic and ENT surgeons specializing in minimally invasive facial and nasal surgery. He is board certified by the American Osteopathic Board of Otolarynology/ Facial Plastic Surgery (AOBOO-HNS), Diplomate of the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery (ABCS) and a member of the prestigious American Academy of Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery (AAFRS).

Dr. Kevin Sadati has over a decade of experience in the field of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, as well as nose and sinus surgery, and has become one of the most sought after Newport Beach and Orange County facelift, rhinoplasty, face and neck liposuction and sinus surgery specialists.

Eighteen years ago SkinStore.com had the bright idea to take hard-to-find clinical skin care products out of the offices of dermatologists and make them available online—and often at better prices. Today, with over 250 brands and 7,500 products, SkinStore is considered by many to be one of the world’s leading specialty skin care product retailers. They have recently expanded their assortment of premium products to include Christie Brinkley Authentic Skincare.

Model, activist and actress Christie Brinkley teamed up with leading cosmetics formulators and scientists working in the field of anti-aging to create a skin care line she is proud to put her name on. Her passionate pursuit of anti-aging led to the creation of Authentic Skincare so she could share her formulas with all women. The cornerstone of the products is the Bio-Copper Complex + IR Defense—an anti-aging complex that fights and prevents the common signs of aging skin.

Christie Brinkley Authentic Skincare Recapture Day + IR Defense Day Cream helps lessen the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles plus lack of firmness, as the Bio-Copper Complex works to revive, improve and protect skin. Clinically-proven to lift and firm, Defense Day Cream also protects with broad-spectrum SPF 30.

Newport Beach, CA (PRWEB) March 07, 2015

Dr. Kevin Sadati is pleased to announce that the top choice among men and women seeking a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance for the new year is his signature Natural Facelift. Utilizing his Double “C” Plication (muscle tightening) technique, his patients receive a refreshed, youthful appearance without a ‘pulled’ or ‘artificial look’ often associated with a facelift.

The Natural Facelift is performed in office and doesn’t require general anesthesia. This revolutionary approach allows the patient to return to his or her normal activities much more quickly than with a traditional facelift. In using local anesthesia, the patient’s discomfort is also dramatically reduced.

Dr. Kevin Sadati is one of the top California facial plastic and ENT surgeons specializing in minimally invasive facial and nasal surgery. He is Board certified by the American Osteopathic Board of Otolarynology Head and Neck Surgery (AOBOO-HNS), Diplomate of the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery (ABCS) and a member of the prestigious American Academy of Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery (AAFRS).

Dr. Kevin Sadati has over a decade of experience in the field of nose, sinus and facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, and has become one of the most sought after Newport Beach and Orange County facelift, rhinoplasty, neck and face liposuction and sinus surgery specialists.

Sunnyvale, CA (PRWEB) January 20, 2015

Boopsie, Inc., the leading mobile platform-as-a-service provider for libraries worldwide, demonstrated a tremendous surge of momentum in 2014. Among other achievements, the company has grown its customer base by more than 30% over the previous year.

In addition to expanding its position as market leader among Public, Academic, and K-12 libraries, Boopsie now serves Corporate Libraries and Government & Military Libraries, having signed a global “Fortune 10” energy company; one of the largest cosmetics companies in the U.S.; and one of the most prestigious military-academic institutions in the world (Defense Language Institute). In addition to growing its customer base and expanding into new library industries, the company’s overall customer satisfaction is evidenced by an astoundingly high 96% renewal rate for its mobile Platform-as-a-Service.

“2014 was a great year for Boopsie,” said Tony Medrano, CEO of Boopsie. “Not only were we able to work with the library community to develop technologies that more efficiently deliver library services to users, we were also able to secure strategic partnerships that are helping us grow internationally and into new markets with a leveraged sales force. 2015 will be filled with even greater product, service, content and developments for libraries.”

New Boopsie technologies and services shipped in 2014 include Boopsie Analytics™, which enable libraries to track downloads, unique users, queries and channel visits made in their library-branded apps from a centralized web-based dashboard. The company also launched marketing services for libraries that have increased their library-branded mobile app usage by as much as 300% for individual libraries as well as consortia and state-wide systems such as Washington State and the State of Virginia.

Boopsie partnered with a number of leading digital content providers in 2014 to bring a seamless, native mobile experience to users including ProQuest, EBSCO, Baker and Taylor, Recorded Books, Overdrive, and 3M Cloud Library. Boopsie also expanded into re-selling digital content, such as Comics Plus (a digital catalog of 10,000 comics and graphic novels) and CoverCake (an in-app discovery tool for books-as-seen-on-TV).

Innovative strategic technology partnerships such as Parity Computing, Inc., which provides powerful data mining, analytics, and decision-support systems for STM publishers and research institutes; Spritz, which offers proprietary advanced speed-reading technology; and LoYakk a next-generation mobile engagement platform for Fortune 500 companies that facilitates collaboration will help Boopsie serve libraries looking for a mobile strategy that will be relevant far into the future.

As part of its international expansion plans, in 2014 Boopsie partnered with iGroup, the largest reseller of digital services to academic libraries in the Asia-Pacific region, serving more than 2,000 academic institutions and libraries.

Furthermore, a number of industry experts joined the Boopsie Advisory Board in 2014 including Fareed Adib, Global Head of Android Partnerships at Google; Dr. David Clementz, former CIO of Chevron-Texaco; Dr. Michael Housman, Chief Analytics Officer from Evolv, Inc., and other technology industry leaders.
