Rev Up Marketers

Moi Moi Fine Jewellery is thrilled to announce the launch of its latest innovation in contemporary jewellery design: The Bezel Collection. Designed exclusively in-house, this elegant new range reimagines the timeless bezel setting for the modern minimalist. Inspired by sleek lines, clean silhouettes, and a philosophy of brilliance, framed, The Bezel Collection features a series of bezel-set rings, bands, and bracelets that balance modern simplicity with enduring elegance. Each piece is crafted to let the gemstone take centre stage, unadorned and uninterrupted. “The design concept behind The Bezel Collection is ‘back to basics’ with a modern approach—simple solitaires set in refined, contemporary bezel settings,” says Moi Moi Jewellery Designer, Janet. Designed for everyday wear, the collection is as practical as it is beautiful. Thanks to the secure bezel setting and the strength of SUPERNOVA Moissanite, each piece is ideal for women with active lifestyles who don’t want to compromise on sparkle or style. “When the centre stones are already so impressive and sizeable, as they are in our Bezel Collection, you really don’t need extra embellishments,” says Lauren Sommer, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Moi Moi. “You simply need to frame the jewel and let it shine—that’s why we’re calling it Brilliance, framed.” An Ancient Technique, Reimagined for Today The bezel setting is one of the oldest known methods of securing gemstones, dating back to Ancient Egypt and Rome. In this collection, Moi Moi updates this heritage technique with sleek modernity, featuring fancy cuts such as emerald, marquise, pear, oval and asscher in bold, contemporary settings. The Bezel Collection includes standout styles such as: Lottie: A versatile solitaire available in multiple cuts, perfect for stacking or bridal wear. Iliana: A unique east-west emerald cut solitaire offering a modern twist on tradition. Jolene: A striking marquise or pear design with a full knife-edge band, ideal as a statement piece. Complementing the rings are matching bands and bracelets, including the chic Roxie, Jodie, Lina, and Kerry bands, and three stunning bracelets featuring fancy-cut stones designed to coordinate effortlessly with the rings. Symbolic, Stylish, and Strong Bezel settings not only offer superior protection but also carry symbolic meaning, often associated with eternity and safeguarding what matters most. These qualities, combined with their smooth contours and snag-free design, make bezel-set jewellery ideal for modern lifestyles. This sleek, secure style has recently surged in popularity among celebrities like Lily Collins, Phoebe Tonkin, and Zoe Kravitz, who’ve all chosen bezel-set rings for their engagements. Now, Moi Moi brings that same modern elegance to Australian jewellery lovers.

Sea Tow Foundation

The Sea Tow Foundation ™, a nonprofit dedicated to promoting boating safety, has launched the last video in its " Sober Skipper™: Why It Matters " series, featuring professional wakeboarder, Thomas Herman.

As a professional athlete, Herman shares why staying sober on the water is essential – for safety and for peak performance.

National Safe Boating Week is held the week prior to Memorial Day weekend (May 17-23, 2025) to reach and educate boaters at the start of the summer boating season. This year, the Sea Tow Foundation is amplifying the Sober Skipper message with the launch of the video. "Wakeboarding, like all water sports, requires focus, control and quick decision-making," said Gail R. Kulp, Executive Director of the Sea Tow Foundation. "National Safe Boating Week is the perfect time to remind all boaters and water sports enthusiasts that responsible choices—like designating a Sober Skipper—can prevent tragedies and make every boating experience safer and more enjoyable.

IntusCare Announces PACE Organization of Rhode Island is First to Deploy Innovative EMR and Practice Management System Platform

Intus Care

IntusCare, a technology leader in the PACE market, today announced that PACE Organization of Rhode Island (PACE-RI) has officially gone live with IntusCare CareHub, an EMR and practice management system built for PACE’s value-based care model. PACE-RI is one of the nation’s most innovative Programs of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE). The successful launch marks a major milestone in a years-long partnership between the two organizations that has been defined by co-creation, trust, and an implementation model centered on deep collaboration. To prepare PACE-RI for the launch, IntusCare delivered a fully immersive, white-glove implementation for PACE-RI, reflecting its commitment to long-term success. The support included in-person workflow discovery sessions with operational subject matter experts and super users, as well as twice-weekly SOP alignment meetings to evolve internal processes alongside CareHub’s capabilities. IntusCare also led a four-day, on-site training bootcamp spanning multiple PACE-RI centers and conducted weekly readiness scoring calls with PACE-RI leadership. During go-live, the team implemented a three-day, center-wide support structure and ensured hands-on involvement from IntusCare’s product team throughout every stage of the process. “This wasn’t just a rollout, it was a joint effort to reimagine how our teams work and collaborate,” said Joan Kwiatkowski, MSW, Chief Executive Officer at PACE-RI. “What excites us most about CareHub is that it’s built for PACE, with PACE. From the start, it’s been thoughtfully designed around the unique needs of our model. We’re confident it will help us operate more efficiently and stay better connected across teams.” In the months ahead, CareHub is expected to deliver measurable gains in interdisciplinary team coordination, reduce documentation time, and improve visibility across clinical and operational workflows. “The ability to link CareHub with other IntusCare products like IRIS and Analytics creates a powerful, all-in-one solution for our clinical and administrative teams,” said Liz Boucher, Chief of Organizational Performance at PACE-RI. CareHub will help us work more efficiently and reduce the burden on staff, creating a happier workforce and freeing up time to focus on caring for our participants. And when we can spend more time with participants, we see better outcomes—especially when paired with easier access to key data that enables earlier, more effective interventions.” PACE-RI’s leadership and frontline staff have played a foundational role in the development of CareHub through their work on the CareHub Product Steering Committee, whose input has directly shaped features like IDT tasking tools, intuitive care planning modules, and embedded compliance support. That collaboration will continue as PACE-RI expands its use of CareHub and helps guide future enhancements. “As our first partner, PACE-RI has helped us build something truly transformative for the PACE community,” said Robbie Felton, Chief Executive Officer at IntusCare. “This go-live isn’t just the culmination of a product build—it’s the start of a new era in how technology supports participant care.” About IntusCare ‍IntusCare is the only end-to-end ecosystem built specifically to help PACE programs deliver exceptional care, strengthen financial performance, and stay compliant. IntusCare replaces outdated technology and manual workaround with purpose-built tools for care coordination, risk adjustment, population health, and utilization management. IntusCare empowers teams to take control of their operations and improve outcomes for dual-eligible seniors – some of the most socially vulnerable and clinically complex individuals in the U.S. healthcare system. Visit our website to learn more intuscare.com. About PACE-RI PACE-RI is the non-profit health plan for adults 55 and older who are nursing home eligible but wish to remain living at home.
