ElectRx Has the Nerve to Envision Revolutionary Therapies for Self-Healing
DARPA, USA - December 11, 2014 - DARPA's Electrical Prescriptions (ElectRx, pronounced "electrics") program aims to develop groundbreaking technologies that would use the body's innate neurophysiology to restore and maintain health. ElectRx would leverage advanced sensing and stimulating technologies to target specific peripheral neural circuits that control organ functions. These feedback-controlled neuromodulation technologies would monitor health status and intervene as needed to deliver patient-specific therapeutic patterns of stimulation designed to restore a healthy physiological state. The program seeks to create ultraminiaturized devices that would require only minimally invasive insertion procedures such as injectable delivery through a needle. DARPA is seeking innovative research proposals to help transform neuromodulation therapies from last resort to first choice for a wide range of diseases.

Prof. Janusz Filipiak, prezes Comarch: Bez inwestycji nie ma rozwoju
Warszawa - 12 grudnia 2014 - "Otoczenie prawno-polityczne w Polsce nie sprzyja przedsiębiorczości. W Polsce są bardzo skomplikowane przepisy dla przedsiębiorców. Pierwszym z brzegu przykładem mogą być regulacje dotyczące VAT, które są zabójcze dla małych i średnich przedsiębiorstw. Comarch to duża firma. Może sobie pozwolić poczekać trochę na zwrot pieniędzy. Dla małych podmiotów oznacza to jednak być albo nie być. Do tego trzeba dorzucić falandyzację prawa. Nie może być tak, że każdy urząd skarbowy na własny sposób interpretuje przepisy prawne i nie ma wspólnej wykładni. Działamy w kilkudziesięciu państwach na wielu kontynentach i jeśli chodzi o komplikację przepisów dla przedsiębiorstw mogę stwierdzić, że Polska jest, razem z Belgią, na szarym końcu." - stwierdził jednoznacznie prof. dr hab. inż. Janusz Filipiak, prezes i główny akcjonariusz Comarch S.A.

Prof. Andrzej Blikle: Łączymy by budować
Warszawa - 27-30 listopada 2014 - "Nie oczekujemy przywilejów i ulg, damy sobie radę bez nich, ale oczekujemy równego traktowania małych i dużych, a także polskich i zagranicznych pomiotów gospodarczych. Małym rodzinnym podmiotom trudno jest konkurować z wielkimi inwestorami, którzy najpierw otrzymują najlepsze lokalizacje pod budowę swoich zakładów, a później płacą podatki nie w naszym kraju. Nie chcemy płacić niższych podatków. Chcemy płacić wyższe, ale nie przez wzrost stóp podatkowych, tylko przez rozwój naszych firm. Bo to jedyna zdrowa droga do dobrobytu społeczeństwa. Jednak, aby tak się stało, potrzebujemy wolności gospodarczej mierzonej choćby indeksem Instytutu Frasera w Vancouverze. Jej wzrost nie wymaga nakładów finansowych, a jedynie woli politycznej koniecznej do uzdrowienia prawa i strzegących go instytucji. Od lat Polska pozostaje w tej sferze w tyle rozwiniętych gospodarek świata, podczas gdy daleko wyprzedzają nas takie kraje jak Gruzja i Armenia. Aby móc tego wszystkiego oczekiwać my firmy rodzinne musimy mieć dość siły, aby stać się elektoratem zdolnym chronić polityków gotowych do przeprowadzenia reform. Nie chcemy być silni, aby się nas bano. Chcemy być silni by dać wsparcie tym, którym nie zabraknie determinacji by położyć swoją polityczną karierę na szali, ryzykując niepopularne zmiany. Tej właśnie determinacji oczekujemy od polityków. Resztę zrobimy my - polscy rodzinni przedsiębiorcy. Bo przecież po to jesteśmy." - stwierdził prof. dr hab. Andrzej Blikle, Prezes stowarzyszenia Inicjatywa Firm Rodzinnych.
