Strategic partnership with Pacific Edge offers Hong Kong clinicians a powerful tool for non-invasive bladder cancer detection and monitoring.
HONG KONG, Aug. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Codex Genetics, one of the leading precision diagnostics companies in Hong Kong, today announced an exclusive collaboration with Pacific Edge, the developer of the Cxbladder suite of non-invasive genomic urine tests, to bring its advanced bladder cancer diagnostics to hospitals and clinics across Hong Kong.
Under this partnership, Codex Genetics will offer access to Cxbladder's full range of clinically validated tests—including Cxbladder Detect, Cxbladder Monitor, and Cxbladder Triage—designed to support urologists and oncologists in the risk stratification and surveillance of urothelial bladder cancer. These precision urine-based tests integrate genomic biomarker analysis with clinical algorithms to deliver actionable insights earlier in the patient care pathway.
Importantly, following a February 2025 update, Cxbladder Triage is included in the Microhematuria Guideline[1] issued by the American Urological Association (AUA) and the Society of Urodynamics, Female Pelvic Medicine & Urogenital Reconstruction (SUFU). The amended Guideline incorporates language supporting the use of urine-based biomarkers to reduce reliance on cystoscopy and Cxbladder Triage is mentioned specifically, supported with "Grade A" evidence from a randomized controlled trial – the STRATA study[2].
"Our collaboration with Cxbladder reflects Codex's continued commitment as a leading diagnostics company in Hong Kong to advance precision medicine across Asia," said Dr. Aldrin Yim, co-founder of Codex Genetics. "Bladder cancer is one of the most expensive cancers to manage due to its high recurrence rate and need for lifelong monitoring. By offering a reliable non-invasive alternative that can reduce the need for cystoscopy, we aim to enhance clinical workflows, allowing clinicians to prioritize time and resources on those who need it the most. This improves the quality of care for patients in both public and private healthcare systems."
"We are excited to partner with Codex Genetics to expand access to Cxbladder in Hong Kong," said Dr. Peter Meintjes, CEO of Pacific Edge. "Codex's regional leadership in precision diagnostics makes them an ideal partner to deliver Cxbladder's value to clinicians and patients seeking reliable and less burdensome approaches to bladder cancer testing."
Bladder cancer is the ninth most common cancer worldwide, with high recurrence contributing to its significant clinical and economic burden. Cxbladder has been used in over 100,000 patients globally and is supported by more than 25 peer-reviewed clinical studies demonstrating high sensitivity and negative predictive value. Its adoption can reduce the need for unnecessary invasive procedures and optimize clinical decision-making.
Clinicians in Hong Kong interested in Cxbladder testing may contact Codex Genetics via www.codexgenetics.com for onboarding and access information.

Global leader in Invoice Lifecycle Management combines with Australia's leading provider of accounts payable automation to bring next generation, AI-powered solutions to fast-growing middle market
SYDNEY, Dec. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Basware, a global leader in Invoice Lifecycle Management, today announced that it has acquired Redmap, a leading Australian provider of Accounts Payable (AP) automation software. Together, Basware and Redmap will deliver a portfolio of AI-driven solutions to middle market and enterprise companies, empowering them to manage the entire invoice lifecycle.
"Today's finance environments are more complex than ever, and every organization – not just the largest companies – needs solutions to streamline and simplify financial processes," said Jason Kurtz, CEO Basware. "Redmap understands this, and their team has built a great product tailored for middle market companies and ERP platforms. Together, we can bring innovation, capabilities and resources often reserved for large enterprises, to transform finance organizations and accounts payable operations for these customers and drive long-term efficiency and growth."
Tapping a Fast-Growing Market
The opportunity is significant. Australia and the broader APAC region are primed for rapid adoption of invoice management solutions. As governments push e-invoicing standards and companies adapt to ever-changing regulatory standards, such as Australia's new Aged Care Act, organisations across the region are seeking smarter, faster and more compliant ways to manage growing invoice volumes.
Grand View Research values the 2025 market for AP automation solutions in the APAC region at $770 million and expects it to double to $1.4 billion by 2030. With the acquisition of Redmap, Basware is strongly positioned to capitalise on this opportunity.
Redmap's solutions help hundreds of organisations across multiple industries, including retail, mining, and aged care, achieve faster invoice processing, improved accuracy, and greater financial visibility. This has helped them become a trusted partner for their customers, such as Evolution Mining, Lowes Menswear and Officemax, and ERP partners, such as Melbourne based Pronto Software.
Basware's Invoice Lifecycle Management Platform™ is the industry's leading AI-driven unified invoice automation platform. Built on decades of AP innovation, the platform combines AI-driven automation with the world's largest AP dataset, built-in compliance and an open invoice network to give finance teams complete control over the entire invoice process and the visibility they need to make smarter, faster decisions. And leading brands such as DHL, Heineken and Sony use the platform to manage over 230 million invoice transactions per year.
Democratising AP Automation
"With the acquisition of Redmap, companies of all sizes can access world-class invoice automation solutions tailored to their specific needs and ERP systems," Kurtz said. "Whether a business is running SAP or Pronto Xi, Basware is committed to being a customer first, partner-enabled provider that delivers purpose-built solutions to transform their AP operations and lead them to the future of intelligent finance."
Pronto Software Managing Director Chad Gates applauds the move. "The combination of Basware's global invoice-automation capabilities and partner commitment, along with Redmap's local and domain expertise creates a powerful value proposition for Australian businesses," he said. "Together, they deliver the kind of seamless, intelligent workflow automation that aligns perfectly with the direction we see the market and our customers heading."
Redmap CEO Ben Woolley agrees. "I'm proud of what we've built at Redmap," he said. "Our partnerships have been the foundation of our success, and this acquisition will allow us to scale and bring our proven ERP integration model to more companies worldwide."
Driving the Future of Finance
The acquisition will also allow Redmap to accelerate and expand development of its AP automation platform, leveraging Basware's advanced AI innovations to deliver the future of intelligent finance for its customers.
"Basware's long-standing legacy in invoice lifecycle management and commitment to ongoing innovation connects us to the reach, resources, and proven practices to accelerate what we do best, while opening new paths for our people to grow, lead, and build the future of automation," Woolley added. The acquisition follows Basware's acquisition of Glantus in 2023 and AP Matching in 2024.
