When a Beijing-based business called Concord Medical Services bought a fifth of the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center Proton Therapy Center in 2012, many people were perplexed. Even while it had no effect on the university’s ownership shares, it raised the Chinese company’s profile. Dr. Jianyu Yang stated, “Proton treatment has become a generally acknowledged form of radiation therapy.” Concord Medical’s medical chairman and CEO is him. “In China, Concord Medical intends to develop and run two proton centers. We will receive important expertise and understanding of proton treatment center operations from the world leader in proton therapy cancer care as a result of this transaction.”

Good Humor

Good Humor ice cream has a particular place in the hearts of baby boomers. The business has been in operation for almost a century and is best known for its ice cream trucks. It all started in Ohio in the 1920s, and it hasn’t looked back since! Unilever’s Thomas J. Lipton purchased the firm in 1961. Even while Lipton currently runs the British-Dutch company’s US branch, we can’t dispute that things have only gotten better for Good Humor since then. After all, the company has subsequently extended its product line to cover a larger range of items while maintaining a strong customer following in the nation.
