8½ Otto e Mezzo BOMBANA at Galaxy Macau Welcomes New Executive Chef Marino D’Antonio for a Master Collaborative Dinner at Showcasing the Vibrant Culinary Cultures of Italy with Umberto Bombana
Celebrating Chef Marino’s return to the Bombana family, Maestro Umberto Bombana will make a special appearance at Galaxy Macau to collaborate with Marino for a dinner event on February 26 and 27, inviting guests on a luxurious culinary journey.
Chef Marino, coming from a family of cooks, embarked on his culinary adventure in China in 2006 and quickly established himself in the culinary scene. In 2013, he partnered with Chef Bombana to open Opera BOMBANA, which rapidly became the hottest Italian restaurant in Beijing. Their partnership has flourished over the years, fueled by a shared passion for gastronomy. Over the past two decades, Chef Marino has opened many successful restaurants across China and authored two culinary books to share his knowledge of Italian cuisine.
The essence of Italian coastal cuisine lies in its high-quality ingredients, a pursuit central to Chef Bombana’s philosophy of “Quality, Tradition, and Consistency.” The menu for the dinner on February 26 and 27 features an exquisite selection of seasonal ingredients: majestic King crab from the pristine, icy waters off Hokkaido; the fragrant Périgord black truffle, which elevates comforting tagliolini with a luxurious touch; and the luscious Mayura beef, expertly paired with earthy morels.
Honored with “Wine List of the Year” by Gambero Rosso—the world’s authority on Italian food, wine, and travel—the restaurant’s wine pairings for the evening are exceptional, elevating the dining experience to new heights.
Refreshed Menu and New Lunch Offerings Present the Finest Italian Flavors
Chef Marino has big ambitions for 8½ Otto e Mezzo BOMBANA and looks forward to introducing his own signature dishes to diners in Macau. One signature dish on the menu is the Veal and Ham Agnolotti in Classic Broth, which represents one of Chef Marino’s earliest food memories as a child. “This is a memory that I carry dearly with me,” he says. “When my mother used to prepare this small ravioli for the family during the winter festivity, there was always a lot of excitement to prepare the broth with just the right amount of Capon chicken veal neck and the spices were always carefully handled by my grandmother. The dough for the Agnolotti skin also needed to be very precise and thin. I can still remember the aromas in the air and the happiness of the family reunion. This always gives me good memories and that is the reason why I love this dish.”
He will also present his Marinated Langoustine with sea urchin, Oscietra caviar, and Orange Chantilly, which he describes as a “must-try” at 8½ Otto e Mezzo BOMBANA. Inspired by Chef Bombana’s love for high-quality ingredients, this dish exemplifies Italian coastal cuisine and the cooking style very much adheres with the culinary traditions of Italy’s Liguria region. The scampi, sea urchin and citrus together orchestrate an explosion of flavors, with Oscietra caviar elevating the dish even further. The new menu will also draw inspiration from 8½ Otto e Mezzo BOMBANA in Hong Kong, allowing guests at Galaxy Macau to savor beloved classic dishes.
Additionally, the restaurant will introduce a new lunch menu starting in March, available every Friday and Saturday, with dishes starting from MOP 680, featuring Michelin-quality cuisine. This menu showcases exquisite Italian classics paired with fresh seasonal ingredients to ensure a high-quality culinary experience in a short timeframe. Guests will have the opportunity to savor the restaurant’s signature dishes and may also choose to enhance their meal with freshly shaved truffles, adding a rich aroma to elevate their dining experience.
Marino’s culinary creations embody rich Italian traditions while showcasing his unique interpretation, delighting diners with a warm and inviting approach. “Respect is fundamental. It is important to respect your team, your guests, and the ingredients,” Chef Marino says. “Our goal is to source the highest quality ingredients, and the closer we can find them, the better. Our planet is one, and we need to keep it for the next generation. Respect for ingredients is vital in our Italian culinary culture. ‘It’s about Tradition, Quality, and Consistency’, as Chef Bombana says. His words have truly stuck with me, and these are the principles I strive to uphold.”
A New Height of Italian Culinary Experience with Starred Chefs
At Galaxy Macau, every meal is a sensory delight. 8½ Otto e Mezzo BOMBANA’s décor harmoniously blends modern and classic styles, creating an elegant and inviting atmosphere. Guests can indulge in not only exquisite cuisine but also the cultural essence of Italy, experiencing a dining environment that beautifully interprets contemporary artistic elegance. With outstanding service, diners are treated to a feast for both the eyes and the palate, as well as an experience of the essence and soul of Italian gastronomy.

TSquared Lab launches TSquared Health, an AI-driven longevity ecosystem, with the acquisition of Noviu Health
Dr. Hisham Badaruddin Appointed Chief Medical Officer as TSquared Health Integrates Medical, Biomarker, and AI Longevity Capabilities
SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 17 December 2025 – TSquared Lab today announced the launch of TSquared Health, a new longevity-focused company designed to help individuals understand and improve their healthspan. By unifying advanced biomarker testing, wearable-derived insights, AI-supported clinical guidance, and targeted optimisation pathways, TSquared Health delivers a structured and continuous approach to preventive care and healthspan optimisation.
As part of the launch, TSquared Health has acquired the clinical operations of Noviu Health, a longevity-focused medical practice operating for more than two years. The clinical division now spans across two locations, an established clinic at Upper Paya Lebar Road and a new flagship TSquared Health clinic in Singapore’s Central Business District, expanding access to physician-led longevity services.
TSquared Health’s medical strategy will be overseen by Dr. Hisham Badaruddin, a longevity-focused physician who has led preventive health programmes across clinical and corporate settings. He brings deep experience in metabolic and hormonal health, as well as data-informed personalised medicine, strengthening TSquared Health’s commitment to medically rigorous, data-driven longevity care.
From Total Transformation to Lifelong Transformation
TSquared Lab is widely recognised for its Total Transformation Ecosystem, a science-backed framework unifying personal training, recovery, nutrition, and expert coaching into a structured, results-focused journey. With TSquared Health, the ecosystem now extends into medically supervised longevity and healthspan optimisation.
“TSquared Lab was built on the belief that people deserve results that stay with them,” said Afshan Thakkar, CEO and Founder of TSquared Lab. “TSquared Health is the evolution of that vision — taking our transformation philosophy and applying it to longevity. It is not only about how strong you are today, but how strong, sharp, and independent you will remain decades from now. Our goal is to democratise world-class longevity care by making it accessible, actionable, and continuous.”
With metabolic and lifestyle-driven conditions rising across the region, demand for proactive healthcare has never been higher. TSquared Health addresses this need by supporting early identification, prioritised interventions, and doctor-led optimisation before symptoms develop, empowering clients to take control of their long-term well-being.
The TSquared Integrated AI Longevity Ecosystem
The longevity space today is fragmented: most clinics provide basic biomarker insights with limited follow-through, leaving clients without a clear path forward. TSquared Health was designed to close this gap through a fully integrated, closed-loop ecosystem that aligns medical diagnostics with real-world execution. The ecosystem integrates:
- Physician-led Longevity Assessment – Comprehensive medical evaluation focused on metabolic, cardiovascular, hormonal, inflammatory, and cognitive health.
- Advanced Biomarker Panels – Two membership tiers, Signature and Elite panels including a deep baseline and a follow-up round, enabling measurement of meaningful biological change over time
- Wearable & Device Insights – Continuous inputs such as sleep, recovery, activity, and HRV incorporated into interpretation
- AI Insights Layer – transforming biological data into prioritised, actionable steps and continuous monitoring
- Personalised Optimisation Pathways: Integrated support across training, movement, nutrition, recovery, and clinical protocols to help clients implement and sustain improvements
Aligned with TSquared Health’s commitment to accessibility, the Signature and Elite Panels are priced to make high-quality preventive testing available to far more people.
By unifying these five key components into a single coordinated system, TSquared Health ensures clients receive clear guidance, precise priorities, and real-world support that drives measurable change.
Turning Data into Action: The TSquared Healthspan Intelligence Engine
At the centre of the ecosystem is the TSquared Healthspan Intelligence Engine, a proprietary AI system that transforms each client’s biomarker, wearable, and lifestyle data into a personalised healthspan score and a focused set of prioritised actions.
Trained with extensive longevity research, the engine highlights the key factors across metabolic, cardiovascular, hormonal, inflammatory, cognitive, and recovery pathways.
Every output is reviewed by an experienced longevity physician, ensuring insights are medically sound, contextualised, and actionable. Rather than pages of raw numbers, clients receive clear, structured guidance on their results and the steps to take next.
The intelligence engine is included with every Signature and Elite Membership.
TSquared Health’s Closed-Loop Longevity Model
Assess. Interpret. Optimise.
Most longevity programmes stop at the first two steps. TSquared Health is built around the third, turning insights into action to drive measurable, long-term health improvements.
Once priorities are identified, TSquared Health activates targeted clinical pathways across its integrated ecosystem, supporting outcomes in areas such as metabolic health, hormonal balance, inflammation control, cardiovascular and cognitive optimisation, and recovery restoration.
“TSquared Health represents a new frontier in proactive healthcare,” said Dr. Hisham Badaruddin, Chief Medical Officer. “By combining biomarker testing, structured interpretation, and real-world intervention under one ecosystem, we can meaningfully shift the trajectory of our clients’ long-term health.”

Prediction is the New Protection: Gartner® Acknowledged CyCraft as a Sample Vendor We Believe for Emerging AI Cyber Solutions
With AI reshaping cybersecurity landscapes, it is pivotal to adopt unified management that preemptively leverages and secures AI. Integrating AI into cybersecurity defense is one of the emerging trends to combat AI-enabled or affiliated risks. C-suite executives and IT leaders must transit from the traditional detect-and-respond model to an AI-informed, proactive security governance.
Unified Exposed Assets and Attack Surface Management
“The complexity of modern environments leads to fragmented data and isolated visibility. Unified exposure management enables holistic visibility through unified telemetry, enabling comprehensive attack surface visibility, accurate risk assessment and prioritization of remediation efforts.”
Gartner, Emerging Tech: AI Vendor Race: Unified Exposure Management Will Drive Displacement of Fragmented Point Solutions, 29 September 2025.
CyCraft External Attack Surface Management (EASM) automatically discovers potential external threats, correlates multiple intelligence and provides an overview of digital assets from the attacker’s perspective. Constantly discovering exposed credentials on surface web, dark web or public markets, this module mobilizes early warning and leakage tracing. Moreover, with the exclusively trained AI model, EASM offers mitigation and audit recommendations tailored to various compliance requirements.
AI-empowered Model Safety, Application Security and Posture Governance
“The emerging AI-enabled threat landscape demands more than just faster detection and response; it requires predictive threat intelligence combined with AI-driven analytics and preemptive action. AI and machine learning (ML) technologies must be used to anticipate attack paths and predict where an adversary is likely to strike to more effectively neutralize potential attacks before they begin.”
Gartner, Emerging Tech Impact Radar: Preemptive Cybersecurity, 7 October 2025.
LLM inherent and related risks are not virtual shadows but substantial threats that jeopardize everyday existence. Since GenAI or LLM outputs are difficult to control, the continuous verification of both input and output is the only way to ensure the validity of a solution.
Built on this logic, CyCraft’s XecGuard is an easily deployable Guardrail module, including cybersecurity, compliance and ethical Guardrails. Defending against Prompt Injection, Jailbreak and Prompt Extraction, XecGuard tackles AI-enabled threats without compromising its performance.
To assess your LLM safety range with quantifiable standards, CyCraft XecArena provides different attack scenarios to compare their performance. Users need to coax the LLM to break its System Prompt or leak confidential information. Join this multi-round testing on XecArena now!
CyCraft continues driving AI innovation in enterprise cybersecurity. In our opinion, this research momentum has further been witnessed by the reception of NeurIPS and EMNLP.
“We believe, being acknowledged in these influential Gartner reports validates our strategic vision and technological innovation,” said Dr. Benson Wu, CEO and Co-Founder of CyCraft Technology. “We’ve consistently invested in AI-driven, preemptive capabilities that enable organizations to stay ahead of invisible threats.”
Limited Evaluation Program
EASM Lite Experience
Evaluation Application
For organizations seeking full functionality, CyCraft is offering a limited evaluation program for 50 qualified enterprises. Participants will receive two External Exposure Analysis Reports, enabling security and governance teams to quantify external attack surface risks and establish data-driven priorities for remediation.
