Lisbon (ViaNews) - This is the first edition of the Doc's Medley, a solidarity music event to take place in the auditorium of FMDUL (School of Dental Medicine, University of Lisbon), on October 27, at 9:00 PM. The event was organized by a group of doctors belonging to the 76/82 class of NOVA Medical School (FCM of UNL). According to the organizers, the inspiration came from the annual Rock'n Law event, promoted by law firms. They adopted the idea to their professional class (doctors) and Doc's Medley was born. With 35 years of experience in their professions, these doctors have in common the taste for music and the desire to help social projects. During the two and half hours event, ten bands will be on stage, each consisting of at least one doctor. On stage, you'll hear mainly covers of well-known songs but also originals of some medical songwriters. Some of the popular bands include: Dixie Gang, Ginjas Band, and Ponto G.

The Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive and uncured neurodegenerative disease which causes a progressive loss of functionality and autonomy affecting, according to the event website, more than 70,000 people worldwide and around 800 in Portugal.

Vertical AI Agents Attract a Funding Wave Across Fintech-Adjacent Industries
A cluster of AI-native startups applying autonomous agents to narrow, operational problems — hotel front-desk staffing (Dextr AI), identity/fraud risk for financial institutions (Baselayer), insurance distribution (Napo, Connie Health, MGT Insurance) — closed seed-to-Series A rounds within days of each other in September 2026, with CB Insights running a coordinated CEO interview series to spotlight them. The pattern points to agentic AI maturing from generic chat tools into vertical, revenue-generating products, with identity verification for AI agents themselves (Baselayer) emerging as a new fintech infrastructure category responding directly to AI-driven fraud risk.

ING Group
Both facts record the same metric (shares_outstanding) for ING Group at the identical observation date (2025-12-31). FACT A states 2,902,437,688 shares; FACT B states 2,902 million shares (2,902,000,000). The difference is 437,688 shares (~0.015%). This is a genuine value conflict, though the discrepancy appears to result from FACT B rounding to the nearest million while FACT A provides the precise count.
