Legal Benefits of Using a Surrogacy Agency for LGBTQ Intended Parents and Others are Highlighted by New Utah Legislation, says Global Surrogacy Services

A February 8 article on The Salt Lake Tribune reports on a new law being sponsored by Utah State Rep. Patrice Arent of Millcreek that would ensure state surrogacy laws would conform to a recent ruling by the Utah Supreme Court. The ruling found that a current law banning gay males from taking advantage of gestational surrogacy is in violation of the 14th amendment to the US Constitution. Los Angeles based surrogate agency Global Surrogacy Services says that the proposed new law is a positive step forward for the rights of intended parents of all orientations but it also points to the complexities of navigating the legal side of gestational surrogacy which affects all parents, including cisgender heterosexual couples as well as those who may be seeking out LGBTQ services.

Global Surrogacy Services says that the Utah situation points out how these laws can often differ greatly from state to state and nation to nation. Even in states like California that are relatively surrogacy and LGBTQ-friendly, dealing with the legal system and finding the right kind of legal assistance can easily overwhelm anyone. An agency that has experience guiding all kinds of intended parents through the aspects of the surrogacy process – and which knows where to find the appropriate legal counsel and what steps need to be taken – can greatly reduce the stress involved with the process.

The surrogacy firm notes that there a great many other sensitive areas associated with the process with possible medical and/or legal ramifications. Specifically, it notes that prospective surrogate mothers are very special people who are ready to perform an enormous service for others but, for their own good as well as for all other parties, they are vetted as part of a painstaking screening process that thoroughly takes into account their physical, emotional, and psychological readiness for a very important task. Afterward, the agency continues, a careful matching process ensues that allows intending parents and prospective surrogates to meet face to face with their potential surrogate. The agency explains that the purpose of the meeting is to ensure that all parties feel comfortable with the entire arrangement as well as with each other. Situations can vary a great deal in terms of such matters as how much time intended parents and surrogates may spend together but the important thing is that all parties know what to expect, says Global Surrogacy Services.

Berkeley Marine Robotics Receives Innovation Corps Grant from the National Science Foundation

Berkeley Marine Robotics has received an Innovation Corps (I-Corps™) grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) for customer discovery of its work on developing autonomous underwater robotic systems for ocean exploration and marine conservation. This grant was awarded based on the progress and strength of their technology development and project team. Berkeley Marine Robotics aims to utilize this grant to conduct further market study and approach potential partners among subsea research and maritime service industries.

Oceans have long remained the final frontier of exploration despite covering 70% of our planet. More than 80% of that seafloor still remains unmapped and unexplored. One of the most significant technical challenges to exploration has been the limited underwater effectiveness of radio signals and other traditional communication methods. Existing equipment of manned-submersibles and tethered remote-operated vehicles is limited in scope and scale – and involves significant cost and risk factors.

Berkeley Marine Robotics is working to solve these hurdles through patent-pending technologies in underwater wireless communication and autonomous swarm maneuverability. Their team has developed an ultra-low-cost model of robotic devices that can work in tandem and generate large-scale marine data with machine learning for research and industry. They have tested prototypes in university labs and aim to put them to initial use-cases in underwater survey and inspection service applications.

I-Corps™ project team will be represented by Alexandre Immas, a PhD candidate at UC Berkeley focused on marine robotics with prior work experience in offshore and deep-sea wind turbines, and Jonathan Daves, a Stanford MBA with operational experience at several successful startups and currently an instructor at the corporate innovation program at Stanford University. Berkeley Marine Robotics is led by Sushil Tyagi, a graduate of I.I.T. Delhi and a Wharton MBA in finance. Tyagi was previously a marine engineer at Exponent Failure Analysis and had published research on wave-induced motion simulation of modular floating structures during his graduate studies in Naval Architecture and Offshore Engineering at UC Berkeley.

Integrated Digital Strategies (IDS) Rebrands with New Logo and New Website

Integrated Digital Strategies (IDS), a complete digital marketing solution, has rebranded and unveiled a new logo — the lighthouse. Specializing in franchise brands, franchise development and local franchisee marketing, IDS recently debuted its new look at the International Franchise Association's (IFA) 2020 convention to an enthusiastic response, with many franchisors anxious to learn more about their integrated approach to digital marketing. Read here.

"We're extremely excited for the future," said Stephen Galligan, IDS co-founder and CEO. "We've grown considerably and felt it was time to do for ourselves what we do for so many of our clients — update and refresh our look, and really reiterate what it is we do better than anyone else."

The IFA convention was the perfect opportunity to debut IDS's rebrand, website redesign, and beautiful new exhibit booth, with hundreds of industry movers and shakers in an audience that was highly receptive to what Galligan, and co-founder and CRO Joseph Mohay, had to say about digital marketing strategies in general, and IDS's unique approach in particular.

"We really see ourselves as an extension of our client's sales and marketing team," said Mohay. "We're an agency that believes in delivering personalized and professional service, while keeping focused on results every step of the way. It's a true partnership!"

That philosophy was reiterated by many current IDS clients who were also in attendance, and who were anxious to sing the praises of IDS's thoughtful contributions to their marketing efforts.

"After vetting multiple partners to increase our online presence, the experience we've had (with IDS) has been extraordinary," said Jack Humbert, VP of Development at Byrider Franchising. "Our lead volume is up and our online presence is ten-fold. But I think the most important thing about working with IDS is the people. They care about your results and they're easy to communicate with. They became our partner in a short period of time."

IDS's attendance at the IFA event marked their seventh time there, which meant visiting with numerous old friends, as well as making new ones — many of whom enjoyed the Client Appreciation Reception that IDS hosted at the beautiful Columbia Restaurant, in Celebration, FL. With over 30 clients, friends, and family enjoying some time to network and relax, Steve and Joe thanked their guests for entrusting IDS to meet their sales and marketing needs and to help them reach important milestones.

"One of the main reasons we've stayed with IDS for the last six years is that we really hold them to the numbers," said Jason Anderson, President of Venture X, and part of the United Franchise Group family of brands. "I can tell you, if the results weren't there, we wouldn't be with IDS!" Be alert to read related news.

Jessica Ray, Director of Franchise Marketing at Huddle House Inc., agreed. "IDS became an extension of our franchise marketing team because of the challenges of managing campaigns in-house, along with other sales and marketing activities. Partnering with IDS helped us reach our franchise sales goals much faster!"

The IDS team was especially excited to unveil their new lighthouse logo, which speaks to their deep Newburyport, MA roots, the city where the US Coast Guard was born. The company wanted to stress its role as a trusted source for all things digital marketing, particularly since the industry can be quite complex. The quintessential New England lighthouse became the perfect symbol, as IDS specializes in not only helping brands navigate the choppy waters of digital marketing, but also to stand out in highly competitive markets.

"We're the total package," reiterates Galligan. "We specialize in complete solutions for a variety of digital marketing needs, and our clients trust us to deliver, no matter how much or how little they've asked us to do."

Dental Pro captures life-like quality 3D face scans and provides powerful and easy-to-use tools to align the 3D face scan to dental surface scans to prepare them for import into dental design software. By incorporating 3D facial scans into the dental planning process, clinicians and dental labs can use the patient's face in 3D as an integral part of the 3D smile design process. Coupled with 3Shape TRIOS intraoral scanner and Dental System, the integration accelerates high-value case acceptance and clinician approval by using facial-driven restorations that reference the patient's individual smile and lip line for superior results and patient care.

The workflow starts with a TRIOS intraoral scan that is then easily integrated into the Bellus3D Dental Pro app. The app allows the clinician to align the face scan and the intraoral scan before sharing the aligned files into the Dental System software

"Our partnership with 3Shape reflects our commitment to the dental market and highlights our integration with 3Shape as the premier platform for chairside and lab dental planning software technology. Bellus3D is committed to making it easy for any dentist to integrate 3D Faces into the digital dentistry workflow.
