XWEL News & Events

Xwell announced a strategic partnership with AI and predictive intelligence company PieQ to develop a next-generation U.S. biosecurity forecasting platform in support of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, CDC. The announcement follows a recent CDC milestone for the Traveler-based Genomic Surveillance, TGS, program - part of the Biothreat Radar Detection System - which has surpassed one million voluntary participants with XWELL and Ginkgo Biosecurity.

XWELL announced the continued expansion of its global biosecurity strategy, leveraging its traveler-based pathogen surveillance capabilities to support international travel hubs and large-scale mass gathering events worldwide. To support this next phase of growth, XWELL announced that Cindy Friedman, M.D., former CDC senior advisor and the founding director of CDC's Traveler-based Genomic Surveillance program, will serve as a senior advisor to the Company. In this role, Dr. Friedman will provide strategic guidance on the design and adaptation of traveler-based surveillance approaches for select international biosecurity initiatives. Building on its U.S. foundation, XWELL is now expanding its biosecurity strategy internationally, focusing on applying proven surveillance models to global travel hubs and large-scale mass gatherings, including major religious and sporting events. The company currently operates wellness and biosecurity programs across seven major U.S. airports and works closely with public health stakeholders in major international travel corridors.

XWELL announces the opening of its newest location inside New York City's Pennsylvania Station. "Our entry into Penn Station marks a natural next step for XWELL as we continue evolving to meet people where they are," said Ezra Ernst, CEO of XWELL. "Wellness shouldn't be reserved for special occasions or hard-to-reach destinations. With this location, we're embedding accessible self-care into one of the busiest places in America-bringing calm, relief and recharge to everyday routines."
