"We are pleased to announce that The Meadows School, one of the most distinguished, private, college preparatory schools in Nevada, has selected Remark's AI Thermal Kit solution to help safely welcome back students and their educational staff on campus for the 2020-2021 academic school year," noted Kai-Shing Tao, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Remark Holdings.
