New Cantonese and Mandarin capable campus extends TDCX’s Hong Kong operations into the Greater Bay Area, pairing local talent with TDCX’s proprietary AI solutions for faster launches and future-ready CX and growth.

FOSHAN, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 4 September 2026 – TDCX, a leading global customer experience solutions firm, opened its newest campus in Foshan, China on September 2, 2026, marking the company’s sixth center in the country and reinforcing the Greater Bay Area as one of its most strategic delivery hubs in Asia. The Foshan campus is purpose-built to serve Hong Kong businesses seeking a scalable, Cantonese-capable delivery hub just 90 minutes from Central, as well as mainland Chinese enterprises across the wider Greater Bay Area seeking AI-enabled customer experience and growth operations.

Foshan was selected for its deep, scalable pool of Cantonese and Mandarin capable talent and its position within the evolving Greater Bay Area technology and AI ecosystem. For Hong Kong businesses, the city offers a natural complement to their existing operations rather than a replacement. For mainland Chinese businesses, it offers access to TDCX’s AI-enabled delivery model and the depth of talent needed to run complex, high-quality operations at scale.

The move comes as TDCX continues to expand its footprint across Greater China, giving clients on both sides of the border faster access to talent, agile launch capabilities, and TDCX’s proprietary AI solutions, which support the next generation of customer experience and B2B growth.

Hong Kong Managing Director, Michael Cowell said: “Foshan gives Hong Kong businesses an execution engine right next door, and gives mainland Chinese businesses access to the same AI-enabled delivery model that sets TDCX apart globally. Clients no longer have to choose between deep local market knowledge and the scale, speed, and cost efficiency of the Greater Bay Area and with Foshan, they get both, backed by proprietary AI tools built specifically for customer experience and growth operations. This campus reflects our commitment to helping businesses across Hong Kong and China scale smarter without leaving the ecosystem they know.”

A campus built for agility, speed, and AI-enabled advantage

The new Foshan campus is designed to support small-pod pilots that launch in as little as 60 to 90 days, allowing clients to test chat, email, voice, social, or back-office support quickly before scaling. Typical pilot pods range from 3 to 10 full-time employees, giving businesses a low-risk, fast-entry path into the market.

Every pod at TDCX Foshan is underpinned by TDCX’s proprietary AI solutions, including QA modernization tools, coaching insights, agent-assist workflows, and voice-of-customer analytics, giving Hong Kong and mainland clients a level of operational intelligence and consistency that differentiates TDCX from traditional BPO providers. TDCX Foshan offers a suite of easy-entry packages designed for Hong Kong businesses and mainland Chinese enterprises alike, including the Foshan Launch Pod for rapid market testing, the Cantonese CX Pod for Cantonese first voice, chat, email, and social support with optional Mandarin and English coverage, the Growth Pod for B2B outbound prospecting, lead qualification, and appointment setting, and an AI-Enabled CX Upgrade for existing teams.

The campus is well positioned to serve clients across e-commerce and retail, travel and hospitality, tech and digital platforms, and financial services, sectors that are increasingly turning to the Greater Bay Area, and to TDCX’s AI-enabled approach, for scalable, future-ready CX and growth operations.

Built for growth, designed to feel like home

TDCX Foshan opens with approximately 100 positions and is expected to grow rapidly over the next two years, reflecting the pace at which Hong Kong and mainland clients are expected to adopt the campus’s pod-based model and scale their teams over time.

The campus itself has been designed as a modern, future-ready workplace, combining thoughtful architecture with functional, purpose-built spaces for collaboration, training, and wellbeing. From onboarding through day-to-day operations, the facility is designed to give every employee a place they can call home, reflecting TDCX’s broader commitment to building workplaces where talent can grow alongside the business.

China Country Director, Tony Chen, said: “What sets Foshan apart is the combination of talent, agility, and technology. We can stand up a Cantonese or Mandarin speaking pod in as little as 60 to 90 days, and from day one, that team is supported by TDCX’s proprietary AI solutions, the same tools we use to drive quality and consistency for clients around the world. That combination gives Hong Kong and mainland clients the confidence to test and scale quickly, knowing they have both the right people and the right technology behind them. We’ve also designed this campus from the ground up to feel like a home for our people, not just a workplace, because that sense of belonging is what will carry us as we grow from where we are today to the much larger team we’re building toward. Being just a short commute from Guangzhou or 90 minutes from Central Hong Kong means our clients never feel far from their teams, even as they benefit from the depth and cost efficiency of the Greater Bay Area.”

Guo Yaoyu, Deputy Director, Management Office, Nanhai District, Foshan, said: “In the outsourcing services industry, Nanhai District, Foshan is home to more than 200 enterprises, including over 30 industry leaders. TDCX joining their ranks will lift the entire sector to a higher level. Nanhai offers rich resources and a very large market to support TDCX’s next stage of growth, particularly as the district focuses on AI. As of June this year, Nanhai is home to more than 3,400 technology enterprises, over 40 percent of Foshan’s total, creating significant market opportunity for clients in Hong Kong, overseas, and across the mainland. The Nanhai District Government looks forward to working even more closely with TDCX to expand these services both at home and abroad.”

With the opening of Foshan, TDCX now operates six centers across China, reinforcing the country’s role as a core pillar of the company’s regional growth strategy and its ability to deliver comprehensive, AI-enabled customer experience and sales solutions for clients across Hong Kong and mainland China.

New collaborative initiative brings together community pharmacy, digital health and patient education to help Malaysians access affordable treatment, stay adherent and receive continuous healthcare support

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 4 September 2026 – Alpro Pharmacy, Sandoz Malaysia and Doc2Us today launched ACCESS360, a collaborative initiative designed to make stroke prevention more accessible and affordable for Malaysians by addressing some of the practical challenges patients face in managing their stroke risk from understanding their condition and accessing appropriate treatment to staying adherent and receiving continuous healthcare support.

Built around the theme “Affordable Treatment. Access to Healthcare Professionals. Continuous Care.”, ACCESS360 aims to ensure that patients are supported not only when they visit a doctor or hospital, but throughout their healthcare journey.

For individuals at risk of stroke, stroke survivors and their caregivers, managing stroke risk can be a long-term responsibility. Knowing what to do is only one part of the journey. Patients also need access to trusted healthcare advice, appropriate and affordable treatment, support to take their medications as prescribed, and convenient ways to seek help when questions or concerns arise. Hence, ACCESS360 brings these elements together into a more connected patient support ecosystem.

Leveraging Alpro Pharmacy’s nationwide network of more than 300 community pharmacies and over 1,000 healthcare professionals, alongside expertise of Sandoz in high-quality affordable medicines, and Doc2Us’ digital healthcare capabilities, the initiative brings stroke prevention support closer to Malaysians, both physically in the community and digitally from wherever they are.

Stroke remains one of Malaysia’s leading causes of death and disability, with more than 40,000 hospital admissions recorded annually¹. The impact does not necessarily end after surviving a first stroke. According to the Clinical Practice Guidelines: Management of Ischaemic Stroke, approximately 26.4%–30% of stroke survivors may experience a recurrent stroke within five years².

Individuals living with cardiovascular risk factors, including patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), may also face an increased risk of stroke. This makes early awareness, appropriate risk management, adherence to prescribed medication and regular follow-up with healthcare professionals important components of stroke prevention.

Yet in everyday life, patients may face practical barriers. Some may struggle with the cost of long-term treatment. Others may stop taking medication when they feel better, be uncertain about why their medication is important, or lack convenient access to healthcare professionals when they need advice. For stroke survivors, the transition from hospital care back into the community can also make continuity of care more challenging. Therefore, ACCESS360 was created to help bridge these gaps.

At the heart of the initiative is the ACCESS360 Stroke Prevention Digital Health Education Platform, providing easy-to-understand information on stroke risk factors, prevention, medication adherence, lifestyle modifications and long-term care. Rather than stopping at education, ACCESS360 provides patients with a pathway to take the next appropriate step.

Through Alpro’s telehealth service, patients and caregivers can connect with pharmacists for personalised guidance on their health concerns, medications, treatment adherence and long-term care. Supported by access to quality and affordable treatment options from Sandoz, this integrated approach helps patients remain engaged in their care journey and maintain continuity of care. When further medical assessment is appropriate, they can be referred for an online doctor consultation through Doc2Us, providing a more convenient and connected pathway to ongoing healthcare support.

This creates a more connected journey, from understand the risk, access professional advice, receive appropriate treatment, to stay adherent and continue care. The initiative is designed to reduce the gap between knowing what patients should do and helping them actually do it.

For someone newly identified as being at higher risk of stroke, ACCESS360 provides a trusted starting point to understand their risk and where to seek help. For patients already receiving preventive treatment, it provides additional support to stay adherent and manage their health over time. For stroke survivors and caregivers, it provides an accessible point of support beyond hospital discharge.

Most importantly, ACCESS360 brings healthcare closer to patients by allowing them to access support through a community pharmacy, speak to a pharmacist remotely or connect with a doctor digitally when appropriate.

“Stroke prevention is not a one-time conversation. Patients may need to manage their risk for many years, and during that journey they may have questions about their medication, struggle with adherence or simply need someone they can turn to for trusted healthcare advice.

“Stroke prevention should not be limited by barriers to access or affordability. For individuals at higher risk of stroke, being able to access appropriate treatment and stay adherent to their prescribed medication can make an important difference in managing their stroke risk. For stroke survivors, these same principles remain critical in reducing the risk of another stroke. Through ACCESS360, we hope to bring trusted healthcare guidance closer to Malaysians through our nationwide network of pharmacists, both in-store and through our online healthcare services,” said Dr. Jessica Kaur Moti A/P Amarjet Singh, Telehealth Doctor Team Lead of Alpro Pharmacy.

“Strong partnerships are essential to improving patient outcomes, particularly in the prevention of recurrent stroke. ACCESS360 brings together the complementary strengths of Sandoz, Alpro Pharmacy and Doc2Us to provide patients with more seamless access to education, support and care. As Sandoz celebrates 55 years in Malaysia, we remain committed to expanding access to healthcare solutions and working with like-minded partners to create sustainable impact for patients and communities across the country,” said Christine Chong, Country Head of Sandoz Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei.

“Digital healthcare can help make healthcare support available beyond the traditional clinic setting. Through ACCESS360, patients and caregivers have another convenient way to access credible health information and connect with healthcare professionals when they need guidance, helping them remain engaged in their long-term stroke prevention journey,” said Mr Heng Meng Ze, Head of Digital Transformation & Innovation of Doc2Us.

Through their respective strengths, the three organisations contribute different but complementary elements to the patient journey: Alpro Pharmacy brings community-based pharmacist support and nationwide accessibility; Sandoz Malaysia supports the goal of improving access to affordable treatment; and Doc2Us provides digital access to healthcare professionals and continuity of care.

Together, ACCESS360 aims to create a more supportive environment for stroke prevention in Malaysia, one where patients are better informed, treatment is more accessible, healthcare professionals are easier to reach, and continuous support is available throughout the patient’s journey. Ultimately, the initiative seeks to help more Malaysians move from simply being aware of stroke risk to taking sustained action to manage it.

Members of the public, individuals at risk of stroke, stroke survivors and caregivers are encouraged to learn more about stroke prevention through the ACCESS360 Stroke Prevention Digital Health Education Platform, https://www.alpropharmacy.com/pages/stroke-prevention and explore the healthcare support available through the initiative, or speak directly with an Alpro pharmacist.

HO CHI MINH CITY, VIETNAM – Media OutReach Newswire – 4 September 2026 – As more men place greater emphasis on their personal image, getting a haircut is no longer simply a matter of “when your hair gets long, it’s time to get a trim.” Hairstyles, appearance, personal style and service quality are increasingly becoming important aspects of modern men’s everyday lives.

A well-suited hairstyle can transform a person’s appearance. A relaxing environment can turn an hour at a barbershop into genuine time for care and relaxation. And a barber who truly understands a customer can transform an ordinary haircut into a more personalized experience.

This shift is driving the barbershop model in a new direction: from a place that simply provides haircuts to a space that brings together men’s grooming, relaxation and lifestyle.

This is the experience that East West Barbershop (Dong Tay Barbershop) – a Vietnamese men’s grooming brand is bringing to the Chinese market.

From Vietnam to China: East West Barbershop (Dong Tay Barbershop) Brings a Proven Model to a New Market

Starting with its first store in 2018, East West Barbershop (Dong Tay Barbershop) has gradually expanded its network, standardized its operating processes and built a professional team in the men’s grooming sector.

After years of development in Vietnam, East West Barbershop (Dong Tay Barbershop) began expanding into international markets, with China becoming one of the important markets in its international journey.

In 2024, East West Barbershop (Dong Tay Barbershop) opened its first store in China, marking a transition from a brand developed primarily in Vietnam to one with an international presence.

But entering a new market does not mean simply replicating an existing model.

For a service brand, one of the greatest challenges of internationalization is ensuring that an experience developed in one market can resonate with consumers in another.

East West Barbershop (Dong Tay Barbershop) has chosen to preserve the core values of its model: A strong focus on customer experience, professional barbering expertise, thoughtfully designed spaces and a diverse service ecosystem.

At the same time, it adapts and localizes its approach to meet the needs and consumption habits of Chinese consumers.

East West Barbershop (Dong Tay Barbershop) brings with it the experience accumulated through years of hands-on operations and applies it to a new market, where the model can be further tested, refined and developed.

This is also how East West Barbershop (Dong Tay Barbershop) approaches internationalization: Building its model in Vietnam, then testing and localizing it in the Chinese market.

For Chinese consumers, this creates another option in an increasingly diverse men’s grooming market: A barbershop experience originating from Southeast Asia, yet designed around the needs of today’s modern customers.

When a Haircut Becomes Part of a Lifestyle

For many years, the criteria for evaluating a barbershop were relatively simple: Whether the haircut was quick and neat, whether the style met expectations, and whether the price was reasonable. But for younger consumers, these criteria are gradually changing.

They may spend more time researching hairstyles that suit them. They are also paying greater attention to a barber’s technical expertise, consultation and communication, as well as the overall experience throughout the service.

In particular, as the pace of urban life continues to accelerate, having time dedicated to oneself is increasingly becoming part of the consumption experience.

As a result, the question a modern barbershop needs to answer is no longer simply, “How can we give customers a good haircut?” but rather: “How can we deliver the best overall experience for our customers?”

East West Barbershop (Dong Tay Barbershop) is pursuing precisely this approach. Its customer experience is built around more than just haircuts.

Customers can choose from services including haircuts, shampooing, facial and neck massage, hair restoration, perming, coloring, nail care and shoe cleaning.

At some stores, the spaces are designed with facilities such as pianos, billiard tables, chess boards, reading areas, bars and fresh ice cream machines, creating a more diverse leisure environment where customers can relax before, during and after their services.

In the future, as men become increasingly attentive to appearance, personal style and service quality, the boundaries between a traditional “barbershop” and a dedicated “men’s grooming space” are likely to become increasingly blurred. This is precisely the direction East West Barbershop aims to continue exploring.

From Vietnam to China, East West Barbershop (Dong Tay Barbershop)’s international journey is about more than simply opening another store overseas.

More importantly, it represents the process of a men’s grooming model developed in Vietnam adapting, evolving and creating new experiences for male consumers in China.

Via the integration with EBANX, Canva becomes the first merchant on Capitec Pay’s new recurring A2A payment

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA, SINGAPORE, and STELLENBOSCH, SOUTH AFRICA – Media OutReach Newswire – 4 September 2026 – Canva, the global visual communication platform, has become the first international company to offer recurring subscription payments to South African customers via Capitec Pay, the account-to-account payment method built by South Africa’s largest personal bank — Capitec. The milestone is made possible through Canva’s ongoing partnership with EBANX, a global technology company specializing in payment services for emerging markets.

The announcement represents a shift in how global subscription businesses can reach South African consumers. Credit card penetration in the country ranges between 8% and 10% of the adult population, according to the South African Reserve Bank and the World Bank. This limitation has historically restricted the reach of traditional card-on-file subscription models, excluding 44 million people in South Africa who do not own credit cards.

Instead of needing a credit card, Capitec Pay lets clients approve a recurring payment once in the Capitec app. After that, participating businesses can collect future subscription payments automatically. Canva is the first international subscription service to offer recurring payments with Capitec Pay.

Capitec is South Africa’s largest personal bank by customer base, with 26 million clients and over 16 million app users. According to Capitec, one in three South African adults uses its mobile app. “For Canva, going live as the first global merchant on this infrastructure is a removal of a structural barrier that was preventing a large portion of South Africans from accessing our platform at all,” said Bianca Sibiya, Canva Africa Lead.

The offering of recurring payments through Capitec Pay by Canva in South Africa is possible thanks to its partnership with EBANX, which helped enhance the solution and became the first global payment service provider (PSP) to integrate it into cross-border payment flows.

“For years, card-based billing has been treated as the default model for global subscription products, but that default was built around consumer behavior in the United States and Western Europe, not South Africa,” explained Wiza Jalakasi, Commercial Lead for Africa and the Middle East at EBANX.

EBANX has become a leading enabler of recurring alternative payment methods (APMs) in cross-border digital commerce across the world. Including South Africa, the company supports recurring APMs across 12 emerging markets, enabling global merchants to reach more than 1 billion consumers, many of whom lack access to credit or debit cards.

“Capitec’s philosophy is to ensure that our clients experience simple, affordable and innovative services. Recurring payments through Capitec Pay is just one of the many ways we bring that simplicity to life, offering clients a payment experience they already know and trust. Through this partnership with Canva, we are expanding our trusted payment experience and giving clients access to international merchants in an accessible way,” said Francois Viviers, Group Executive of Marketing and Client Experience at Capitec.

South Africa’s digital commerce market continues to grow rapidly, reaching 74% of adults and annual growth projected at 20% through 2028, according to Payments and Commerce Market Intelligence (PCMI) data analyzed by EBANX. By that year, South Africa’s e-commerce market is expected to represent a USD 23 billion opportunity, based on PCMI insights featured in EBANX’s Beyond Borders study.

The Federal Ministry of Solid Minerals Development is partnering with EnergyNet to deliver the first Nigeria NOW

ABUJA, Nigeria – EQS Newswire – 3 September 2026 – The Nigeria NOW! takes place on 19 and 20 November at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre, under the patronage of the Honourable Minister of Solid Minerals Development, Dr Dele Alake. Between 500 and 600 delegates are expected across energy, infrastructure and mining.

The Federal Ministry of Solid Minerals Development is partnering with EnergyNet to deliver the first Nigeria NOW!, and has committed to remain involved through the preparatory period rather than at the event alone. The Ministry hosted the Abuja launch, secured the patronage of the Honourable Minister, and convened three further federal ministries as deliberate participants.

Speaking at the launch through Engr. Obadiah Simon Nkom, Director-General of the Mining Cadastre Office, Dr Alake set out why four ministries participate rather than one. Infrastructure, licensing, financing, technology, security and market access fall across several mandates, and no single ministry can answer an investor’s questions on all of them.

Why Nigeria

Nigeria now issues no mining licence without a plan for a local processing plant. The rule has been applied consistently and the investment following it includes a $1.3 billion partnership with the Africa Finance Corporation covering an alumina refinery, geological mapping and exploration support, a $600 million lithium processing plant near the Kaduna-Niger border, and a $200 million lithium refinery outside Abuja.

The first working demonstration is already running. A lithium plant at Endo in Nasarawa State, commissioned on 2 July, processes 6,000 tonnes of ore a day on around $250 million of investment. Sector revenue reached over 38 billion naira in 2024 against 6 billion the previous year. A memorandum signed with Türkiye in May covers exploration, technology transfer, digitalisation and training, and the Solid Minerals Development Fund began awarding exploration grants in July under its new EMERGE endowment.

Nigeria’s power sector is moving on the same principle of decentralised decision-making. Two years into the Electricity Act 2023, the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission has transferred regulatory oversight to sixteen subnational commissions, giving states authority over their own electricity markets for the first time. The Nigerian Sovereign Investment Authority has put domestic capital behind distributed renewable energy, and industrial self-supply has reached 200MW, with a steel plant among the projects breaking ground against it.

Dr Alake’s own formulation is that the days of exporting raw minerals from pit to port are over.

What the Expo covers

Nigeria NOW! brings government, investors, project developers, financial institutions and development partners together around three sectors, energy, infrastructure and mining, with a focus on projects, capital and partnerships rather than announcements alone. The programme runs across two days at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre in Abuja.

“This is the first Nigeria NOW! held in Nigeria, and the Ministry’s commitment to stay involved through the preparatory period is what makes it different from a conference that arrives and leaves,” said Abdoulaye Sylla, Portfolio Manager and Head of Corporate Development at EnergyNet. “We expect between 500 and 600 delegates, and the Ministry has asked that the Expo be judged on what is delivered after it closes.”

Partners

Nextier joins the Expo as Official Advisory Partner, providing strategic advisory and media support across the programme.

The Nigerian Indigenous Women in Mining and Natural Resources Organisation (NIWIMNRO) joins as Women in Mining Partner. The network was recognised at the Abuja launch with EnergyNet’s Leadership Award and a $25,000 grant, following a year in which it took its work with women artisanal miners from three states to all six of Nigeria’s geopolitical zones, adding protective equipment, mobile medical visits and cooperative registration to the training programme it began with.

Women in Mining joins as Women in Mining in Nigeria Partner; The Lagos State Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources joins as Lagos State Sponsor; The Electricity Hub joins as Official Podcast Partner.

YES! Nigeria

The Youth Energy Summit runs alongside Nigeria NOW! on 20 November at the same venue, bringing young professionals and entrepreneurs into the same building as the investors and ministries. The Youth Sustainable Development Network joins as a partner for the Nigerian edition, alongside the University of Abuja’s Centre for Entrepreneurship Development and Students as YES! Supporting Partner.

• Profit attributable to equity holders of HK$525 million, up 10% year-on-year
• Revenue of HK $6,604 million and underlying EBIT of HK $749 million, up 6% and 7% respectively on an underlying basis
• Market remains challenging with total service revenue being down 3%; ARPU for postpaid mobile business also down by 1%
• The Board has recommended a final dividend of 17.5 HK cents per share, bringing the full-year dividend to 32 HK cents per share, representing a dividend yield of 6.7%

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 3 September 2026 – SmarTone Telecommunications Holdings Limited (“SmarTone”; SEHK: 315), the telecommunication subsidiary of Sun Hung Kai Properties Limited (SEHK: 0016), today announced its financial results for the year ended 30 June 2026.

Against an intensely competitive mobile market, SmarTone delivered profitable growth during the year. Profit attributable to equity holders increased by 10% to HK$525 million. Revenue reached HK$6,604 million and underlying EBIT reached HK$749 million, up 6% and 7% respectively on an underlying basis. The business continued to diversify its sources of revenue and contribution, with 5G Home Broadband revenue increasing by 10% and Enterprise Solutions revenue growing by 17%.

Competition in the core consumer postpaid market remained particularly intense. Total service revenue declined by 3%, while postpaid mobile ARPU decreased from HK$222 to HK$220. Our current 5G subscriber penetration rate is 50%, leaving significant room for improvement. We will continue to take actions to substantially strengthen our business and continue to improve operational efficiency through the use of AI tools. Operating costs decreased by 6% to HK$1,518 million, while capital expenditure declined by 21% following significant investment in its 5G network in previous years.

SmarTone continued to strengthen its network across locations where performance matters most. We have the most spectrum capacity per subscriber amongst all mobile operators in Hong Kong, which gives us an inherent advantage to serve our customers. Following the renewal of its exclusive 850MHz spectrum and the acquisition of new 6/7GHz spectrum, the company deployed 3.3GHz and 3.5GHz “Golden Spectrum” across high-density urban districts and transport hubs to enhance capacity and download speeds. Network investment covered major MTR stations, Kai Tak Sports Park, the Hong Kong Coliseum and other high-traffic locations, as well as emerging destinations such as GO PARK and the Northern Metropolis. The network is also being optimised to support changing customer behaviour as AI applications drive greater demand for both downloading and uploading data.

SmarTone also piloted SmarTone PRIORITY, a flagship membership programme for its top customers, offering dedicated relationship managers and practical overseas assistance when customers lose their mobile phone or SIM card. AI is also becoming an increasingly important part of the customer proposition. “AI Connect” provides more convenient and secure access to leading AI services, while personal consultations and dedicated AI hubs in retail stores help customers use AI more effectively. SmarTone’s focus on service was recognised with nine awards at the 40th Hong Kong Retail Management Association Service Talent Awards.

SmarTone’s Enterprise Solutions business continued to grow as enterprises accelerated their digital transformation. The company provides integrated connectivity, cloud, cybersecurity and digital solutions across SmartHome, SmartMall, SmartHotel, Smart Property Management, Smart Construction and SmarTransport. It also continued to work closely with SHKP across developments including International Gateway Centre, Cullinan Harbour, GO PARK, Sierra Sea and YOHO West, incorporating SmartConnect 5G Wi-Fi and smart IoT capabilities from the outset so that connectivity and digital services form part of the customer experience by design.

Ms. Fiona Lau, Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer of SmarTone, said: “This year’s profit growth reflects the progress we have made in diversifying our revenue streams and improving efficiency despite intense competition. Looking ahead, we will continue to harness AI, deepen our family and premium propositions, and leverage the SHKP ecosystem to enhance customer experience and create sustainable value.”

The company owns over 30+ hotel and timeshare brands, with 9,000 locations and over 1.5 million rooms across its network.

The goal of the company, with respect to hospitality, is to have our AWG stations in every hotel possible.

Brian Conlan, Captiva Verde CEO, states: “We are blessed to have the quality of the Military and Hotel Industry to showcase environmental stewardship. Water produced by the atmosphere is both purer than water from an aquifer or traditional bottled water. Additionally, every gallon produced from AWG prevents an identical gallon from being depleted from our highly stressed reservoirs. Purity and health meet conservation.”

Our largest current model (up to 10,000+ gpd), Captiva Verde water stations, to be constructed across the world, cost a fraction of traditional infrastructure upgrades, but deliver pure, virgin water. This creates a new economy, a new industry, new jobs, and delivers pure water that is both “plastic-free” and produced “on location,” rather than being shipped for hundreds of miles. Our Origen stations are where sustainability meets purity.

Across Southeast Asia, this global vision is being translated into locally rooted programs that encourage young people to engage with culture, environment and society through mobile imaging. In Thailand, “vivo Academy – Capture the Future,” developed in partnership with the Faculty of Journalism and Mass Communication at Thammasat University, combines professional guidance, hands-on practice and creator exchanges to encourage university students to explore creative expression and develop their creative skills. By extending learning beyond the classroom and opening up further creative opportunities for promising young talent, the program reflects vivo’s broader commitment to nurturing the next generation of creators and contributing its imaging expertise to local communities.

In Malaysia, around 250 young people participated in visual storytelling workshops at the Penang Hill Biosphere Reserve, organized with Malaysian National Commission for UNESCO (MNCU), Penang Hill Corporation (PHC) and Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM). Through mobile imaging, participants explored stories of biodiversity, community life and sustainable development, transforming observations of their surroundings into stories that can inspire wider understanding.

Local Innovation for Everyday Culture

Cultural understanding extends beyond storytelling into everyday experiences. By combining technology with local insights, vivo develops products and initiatives that reflect how people celebrate, connect and live within their communities.

In Thailand, vivo introduced an AI Songkran imaging effect for Songkran celebrations. Powered by AI portrait optimization and intelligent imaging technologies, the feature helps users capture the energy and atmosphere of one of the country’s most iconic cultural festivals. In Indonesia, vivo make appropriate arrangements for employees to conduct religious activities , reflecting respect for local traditions and diverse cultural backgrounds. These efforts fully reflect vivo’s belief that innovation becomes more meaningful when it responds to the realities of everyday life and helps people stay connected to the cultures and communities that shape them.

Growing with Communities, Creating Shared Value

For vivo, understanding local contexts is not only reflected in products and experiences, but also in how the company operates and contributes to society. Across Southeast Asia, vivo seeks to create long-term value through responsible business operations, community engagement and investment in future talent.

At vivo’s Indonesia manufacturing site, sustainability is integrated into daily operations. Green initiatives across packaging, energy management and production processes help improve resource efficiency. Corrugated cardboard is gradually replacing expanded polyethylene foam in packaging, while electric forklifts have been introduced for material handling and warehousing to reduce emissions associated with conventional fuel-powered equipment. Some reusable production materials are made available to surrounding communities at preferential prices, extending environmental efforts into tangible local value.

Across different markets, vivo supports initiatives that reflect local priorities and interests. In Malaysia, the “We Care” program has supported children and young people through community-based assistance. During the 2022 FIFA World Cup, as the tournament’s Official Smartphone Brand Partner, vivo Malaysia partnered with World Vision Malaysia on the “vivo Give It a Shot” initiative, encouraging public participation while supporting children in need. Building on this commitment, vivo launched “Dream Field 2.0” during UEFA EURO 2024, helping improve sports facilities and provide football equipment for local schools, creating a better training environment for young athletes to participate in sports and team activities.

In Thailand, following the 2025 southern floods, vivo provided support to three affected schools in Songkhla Province for the restoration of school facilities and educational resources, while offering special repair and service assistance to affected users, contributing to recovery efforts.

From empowering young people to tell local stories and reflecting cultural traditions through innovation, to advancing greener operations and supporting community development, these efforts demonstrate a consistent approach: meaningful growth begins with understanding what matters to local communities.

This people-centered approach also carries through to vivo’s product innovation. Across the vivo X Series and V Series, innovative imaging capabilities and thoughtful, user-centered design help users capture meaningful moments and enrich everyday life, reflecting vivo’s commitment to “Technology Lights Up a Bright Future.” Looking ahead, vivo will continue growing alongside users, partners and communities across Southeast Asia ,creating shared value through long-term local engagement and bringing “Joy Connects the Future” to life across the region.

BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 3 September 2026 –1win Charity has supported approximately 35,000 families across Latin America through four humanitarian initiatives carried out in Colombia, Venezuela, and Chile in 2026. Over $100,000 was directed to emergency relief and recovery efforts, including emergency rescue equipment, construction materials, food, drinking water, medicine, hygiene products, and direct on-the-ground assistance.

The latest response followed the magnitude 7.4 earthquake that struck Colombia on August 10, 2026. The support from 1win Charity reached nearly 2,000 people, who received drinking water, food and hygiene kits, warm meals, blankets, sleeping mats, and first-aid supplies. A member of the 1win VIP community, Valentina Gómez, and Colombian creator Yeferson Cossio visited the affected communities to deliver relief.

Earlier in the year, 1win Charity supported more than 8,000 families after the June earthquakes in Venezuela. Working alongside local emergency organizations, hospitals, and community leaders, 1win delivered food, water, hygiene products, medicines, and medical supplies across affected communities in Caracas, La Guaira, and Miranda.

In Chile, 1win Charity carried out two major relief initiatives. Following extreme rainfall, winds, and storm surges in July, 1win Charity volunteers joined cleanup and debris-removal efforts in Quillón and Bulnes, while the organization provided rescue boats, drinking water, tools, protective equipment, and other provisions to communities and emergency teams.

The response followed an earlier initiative in the wake of devastating wildfires in Biobío and Ñuble, which burned more than 34,000 hectares. At the beginning of 2026, together with professional boxer Andrés Campos and the Chilean National Content Creators, 1win Charity supplied drinking water and emergency kits. Combined, the two Chilean initiatives supported approximately 20,000 families.

“For us, a long-term commitment to Latin America means being present all the time — during the happy celebrations and when communities face their most difficult moments. Our approach is to listen to local needs, work with trusted partners, and provide practical support where it can make a real difference,” 1win Charity representatives mentioned.
