Having worked closely with Ross for five years, I’ve seen firsthand his exceptional strategic capabilities and operational leadership. I am confident he is the right person to lead the company through its next phase of growth and significantly expand our global impact,” said Jurgi Camblong, SOPHiA GENETICS co-Founder.

    “Jurgi has built something truly remarkable over the past 15 years, a unique company and technology platform that stands apart in the industry,” said Ross Muken. “When I joined in 2021, I immediately recognized this was a category-defining company applying AI and cloud computing at unprecedented scale. Over these five years, working alongside Jurgi has been extraordinary. I’ve gained deep insights into our customers’ needs, our technology’s capabilities, and the exceptional talent of our team. I’m deeply honored to succeed Jurgi as CEO and look forward to continuing our partnership as he transitions to Executive Chairman.”

In addition, the Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted operating loss (non-IFRS measure) to operating loss (the most comparable IFRS financial measure), due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying amortization of capitalized research & development expenses and intangible assets, share-based compensation expenses, non-cash portion of pensions paid in excess of actual contributions, certain transaction costs and litigation expenses that are necessary for such reconciliation.

  • What most corporate carbon reports get wrong, and how to fix them

    What most corporate carbon reports get wrong, and how to fix them

    Expanding access to better data

    Together with collaborators including lab member Wesley Ingwersen, who created the U.S. EPA model and led work on it until the agency shuttered it in August 2025, Davis is now working to make a global model freely available and easy to use through an effort called Cornerstone. “The reason companies haven’t been using the global models is they’re not as easy to come by. They are a lot more involved to build, and there hasn’t been an easy, open-source version,” said Davis. 

    The group is integrating the former government database with the multi-region model analyzed in the study, which was developed by a private company called Watershed, where Davis chairs the science advisory board and previously served as head of climate science. 

    “When available tools neglect international sources of emissions, companies’ sustainability decisions suffer,” said study co-author Michael Steffen, Watershed’s head of climate analytics.

    The team aims to release the merged model in late 2026, with ambitions to account for emissions from land-use changes and deforestation in later research and iterations. “If you’re getting soybeans from Iowa, it has a very different footprint than if you’ve cut down some of the Amazon to grow those soybeans,” Davis said.

    Scientists from the World Wildlife Fund and CDP, formerly known as the Carbon Disclosure Project, co-authored the paper. “These are NGOs that are really interested in minimizing greenwashing and making sure that corporate climate actions are as beneficial as possible,” Davis said. 

    Some critics question whether models based on sector-wide averages and spending like those analyzed in the study are the right approach to estimate upstream emissions at all – regardless of whether global or single-region models are used. “I think we could all agree that if you had perfect data about exactly what was going on in your supply chain, you could make even more accurate estimates and leapfrog all of these models,” Davis said. “The reality is, though, that it’s still really difficult to get a lot of that data, and there’s little prospect of getting it without much more stringent regulations than are even on the table.” As a result, he said, there’s value in improving the modeling approach even if the long-term strategy is to get better data. 

    Corporations seeking to track and reduce emissions in their supply chains have the potential to make a meaningful difference in global carbon pollution, Davis said. “They are making sizable investments. If those dollars are directed to the right places, it could meaningfully reduce global emissions,” he said.

  • Critical minerals rise to the surface of the geopolitical plane

    Critical minerals rise to the surface of the geopolitical plane

    White & Case Global Head of Mining & Metals, Rebecca Campbell, and Gabrielle Goodrow, senior associate in White & Case’s Project Development & Finance Group, spoke with IJGlobal as part of its Energy Transition Report 2025, discussing how critical minerals have become a central geopolitical battleground, with countries taking a more active role in the evolution of global supply chains amid ongoing structural and practical challenges.

    Many nations today agree they need to take the reins of production, processing and import of these minerals. The US, in particular, has produced a raft of domestic policies that are impacting markets worldwide. Goodrow notes “a growing share of global flows is being directed toward the United States, which is working to position itself as a key anchor market for critical minerals.”
