In recent years, we have seen a growing awareness of the importance of sleep monitoring in general and sleep breathing monitoring in particular, as evidenced by the entry of giant companies into the field. I think this trend will continue. I believe that the company&#8217;s patent portfolio is a strategic asset that will attract companies to cooperate with the AppYea.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">To read the full article, click here:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/ron-mekler-joins-appyeas-board-140500253.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/ron-mekler-joins-appyeas-board-140500253.html<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ono Grad To Head Company that Treats Sleep Apnea and Snoring Ron Mekler, an MBA graduate of Ono Academic College, was appointed as an independent director of the AppYea Inc.
