SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 14 May 2026 – Veritickets, a global event ticketing platform, has become the first brand to sell overseas concert and sports tickets on Tmall Global, China’s largest cross-border e-commerce platform, following its recent debut on the site.
Screenshot of Veritickets’ storefront on Tmall Global.
The move established a new category for international live entertainment ticketing within China’s import e-commerce market, with Tmall Global positioning Veritickets as a specialist overseas brand addressing an underserved market.
Ahead of Tmall Global’s annual 618 shopping festival, Veritickets will offer tickets to all 104 FIFA World Cup matches, alongside global tour tickets for leading Chinese-language artists including Jay Chou, Stefanie Sun, and Mayday. The platform will also feature K-pop tours across Asia, enabling fans to secure seats for performances by groups such as EXO, BTS, and i-dle.
The move comes as outbound demand for live entertainment continues to rise among Chinese consumers, driven by a packed calendar of international sporting events, including the FIFA World Cup, UEFA Champions League and Premier League, as well as a broader recovery in concerts across the Asia-Pacific region.
Veritickets aims to address longstanding difficulties in cross-border ticket purchasing. Consumers buying overseas event tickets have typically faced challenges ranging from language barriers and complex payment processes to uncertainty over ticket authenticity and availability. The platform was designed to resolve these issues for international buyers.
The platform commits to issuing confirmed, in-stock tickets in as fast as 12 hours and provides multilingual interfaces and multi-currency payment options. It also offers a “100% verified tickets” guarantee backed by a consumer-protection policy that provides a full refund, plus additional compensation of up to the ticket price, if tickets are not delivered.
Tickets are available through the Veritickets website or mobile app. The platform accepts major international credit cards, including Visa, Mastercard and JCB, and is also an officially certified partner of Alipay, China’s leading digital payments and services platform.
To enhance transparency and reduce search friction, Veritickets aggregates official and vetted ticket inventory into a single interface, allowing users to compare offerings with real-time availability and pricing. An all-in pricing model is used to limit hidden charges and last-minute price adjustments.
Event recommendations are tailored using a preference-based engine, while dedicated customer support and real-time transaction verification form part of the platform’s service and supervision standards.
Initially focused on Hong Kong, Macau and Southeast Asia, Veritickets plans to strengthen its footprint across the Asia-Pacific region, with phased expansion into additional international markets.
The platform is currently recruiting internationally qualified ticketing agents, requiring valid operating licenses, strong credit records and proven professional service capabilities. All agents must comply with stringent requirements, including real‑time ticket updates, instant transaction validation and round-the-clock customer support, ensuring a consistent and reliable experience for buyers worldwide.

SHANGHAI, CHINA – EQS Newswire – 14 May 2026 – Saint Bella Group recently announced that its investment in and entered a strategic partnership with L Catterton, the leading consumer-focused private equity firm affiliated with LVMH. Managing roughly $40 billion in equity capital and with investments in over 300 renowned consumer brands worldwide, L Catterton will collaborate with Saint Bella on technology innovation, international expansion, and the development of a premium brand ecosystem. This deep cooperation aims to power Saint Bella’s evolution into a global multi brand household care group.
The partnership signals top tier international capital’s strong endorsement of Saint Bella’s business model and growth prospects, and represents a landmark strategic move in the household care sector.
Complete Digital Transformation of the Premium Services Market
According to its official website, L Catterton was jointly founded by leading consumer private equity firm Catterton, world leading luxury group LVMH, and Bernard Arnault’s family holding company Groupe Arnault. It integrates Catterton’s existing private equity business in North and Latin America with LVMH and Groupe Arnault’s private equity and real estate operations in Europe and Asia, creating the world’s largest diversified private equity firm focused on the consumer sector.
Under the strategic cooperation agreement with Saint Bella, L Catterton will provide cutting edge technology innovation support and deep insights into high net worth consumer behavior to help continuously iterate Saint Bella’s service experience and optimize its membership system.
Backed by the core resources of the LVMH Group—a global leader in luxury that owns more than 70 renowned luxury brands—L Catterton can leverage LVMH’s digital transformation practices and strategies to help Saint Bella further upgrade and iterate its services and innovation.
Top international capital enters the field, unlocking the potential of a multi brand global group
Since opening its first overseas store in 2023, Saint Bella Group has continued to expand internationally. It recently announced top tier hotel signings in five major global cities—New York, London, Paris, Bangkok and Sydney—marking the initial formation of its global operating footprint.
For Saint Bella Group, L Catterton provides access to a global range of luxury and premium consumer-brand resources. Through this partnership, Saint Bella will leverage L Catterton as a bridge to actively explore cooperation with L Catterton’s portfolio companies and industry network—seeking luxury and high end consumer partners for joint product development, integrated membership benefits, and scenario based service experiences—to jointly build a cross sector ecosystem for premium maternal & infant and lifestyle offerings.
The core strategic objective of the collaboration is to build the Group into “the Anta of maternal & infant and family care.” To realize this vision, the two parties will rely on L Catterton’s top tier global consumer network to systematically identify, evaluate, and target high growth potential new retail maternal & infant brands and cutting edge care product companies worldwide. Through a dual pathway of co investment incubation and strategic acquisitions, they will form deep capital partnerships with international brands that have unique brand value and product competitiveness—leveraging L Catterton’s global operating experience and consumer industry ecosystem to jointly expand into global markets—and selectively introduce leading international care product and retail brands to continuously enrich Saint Bella’s retail footprint and brand matrix. This strategy aims, via ongoing outward looking M&A and integration, to build a multi category brand ecosystem covering maternal & infant care, health foods, smart hardware, and more, ultimately accelerating Saint Bella’s evolution from a single service operator into a multi brand, group level global family health management platform.
Backed by L Catterton’s long standing talent network and market strategy expertise in the global consumer sector, Saint Bella is expected to gain critical support for local operations in overseas markets, brand localization, and the recruitment of high quality brands and talent. As the partnership deepens and progresses, this two way resource linkage will help Saint Bella precisely meet international market consumer demands and promote its Eastern origin professional care system onto the world stage in a more mature form.
Viewed holistically, this strategic cooperation brings not only international capital endorsement but also systematic access to world class consumer resources. From technology upgrades to ecosystem synergies, Saint Bella is completing a strategic leap from organic growth to external expansion. Against the long term trends of pro natal policies and rising family health consumption, the sector leader—having already delivered strong performance—now presents an increasingly clear global brand strategy for the future.

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 14 May 2026 – The ACES Institute today conferred its Distinguished Fellow recognition upon Letright Founder and Chief Executive Ren Li during a leadership dialogue hosted in collaboration with Monash University Malaysia and the UN-supported Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME).
Ren Li with the ACES Institute and Monash University team following the leadership dialogue and fellowship conferment.
Held at the Plenary Theatre at Monash University Malaysia, the forum, titled Responsible Leadership in Asia: A Case Dialogue on Practice and Impact, brought together business leaders, academics, and sustainability advocates to examine how companies can scale globally while maintaining responsible governance.
The recognition marks the latest milestone for Li, a previous recipient of the Responsible Business Leader accolade (ACES Awards 2024) and Entrepreneur of the Year (ACES Awards 2025). Under his leadership, Letright has emerged as one of China’s premier outdoor furniture exporters, operating in over 70 countries.
Speaking at the dialogue, Li emphasized that responsible leadership should be an industry-wide standard rather than a niche competitive advantage. “I welcome competition because responsible business leadership should continue expanding across the industry,” said Ren Li. “The market is large enough for everyone. What matters more is building businesses that grow sustainably and responsibly over the long term.”
Moderated by Associate Professor Dr. Esther Chong of Monash University Malaysia’s School of Business, the discussion explored ethical decision-making across global supply chains. “Ren Li’s journey demonstrates that profitability and principled leadership can reinforce one another,” noted Dr. Chong.
Dr. Shanggari Balakrishnan, President of the ACES Institute and CEO of MORS Group, stated that the fellowship reflects the organization’s mission to champion ethical leadership. “Ren Li represents a new generation of leaders who understand that accountability, resilience, and purpose are central to long-term success,” she said.
The dialogue successfully bridged academic insight with real-world executive experience, offering a closer look at applying responsible principles amid growing global scrutiny. The event concluded with a networking luncheon for representatives from academia and the international business community.

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 14 May 2026 – On May 14, 2026, the Asia Link Cable (ALC) international submarine cable, led and constructed by China Telecom, has successfully landed at the Chung Hom Kok Cable Landing Station in Hong Kong, China. The successful landing marks a key milestone in the project’s construction and lays a solid foundation for its subsequent full commercial operation.
Led by China Telecom and jointly developed by 13 leading operators across the Asia-Pacific region, the ALC system spans approximately 6,200 kilometers, connecting China (Hong Kong and Hainan), Singapore, the Philippines, Vietnam, Brunei and Malaysia, with a total designed capacity exceeding 325 Tb/s. Once completed, ALC will become the highest-capacity international submarine cable for the Hong Kong-to-Singapore route, and marks another new submarine cable landing in Hong Kong by China Telecom following the full commissioning of the ADC submarine cable in 2025. The ALC system will efficiently support the growing transmission demands for high-bandwidth and low-latency transmission driven by cloud computing, AI large models and other emerging digital applications, while providing strong communications infrastructure support for the development of Hong Kong’s international innovation and technology hub.
As the largest investor in the project, China Telecom has undertaken core management responsibilities and played a leading role in driving the project throughout the entire process, from preparation, planning and design to construction. The ALC system represents an important strategic initiative in strengthening China Telecom’s international communications backbone network across the Asia-Pacific region. After it goes into service, it will add more than 100 Tb/s of bandwidth capacity for China Telecom, significantly enhancing its network capacity, connectivity and traffic scheduling capabilities across the region.
In addition, ALC is China Telecom’s first international submarine cable landing in Hainan. It will effectively fill gaps in Hainan’s international communications capacity toward Hong Kong, Macao and Southeast Asia – serving as a key initiative for China Telecom to implement the strategy for building the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and to support the Belt and Road Initiative.
The Chung Hom Kok Cable Landing Station in Hong Kong, where the ALC submarine cable landed this time, is China Telecom’s first self-built submarine cable landing station outside mainland China. Going forward, the station will continue to handle landing tasks for international submarine cables heading to multiple regions and directions, including the Asia-Pacific, Asia-Europe and other regions- further strengthening Hong Kong’s position as a key communications hub in the Asia-Pacific region and supporting China Telecom build a more comprehensive global communications network.Hashtag: #ChinaTelecom

PANAMA CITY, PANAMA – Media OutReach Newswire – 14 May 2026 – Fuutura has introduced a unified trading protocol that combines self-custody, on-chain identity, and access to multiple asset classes within one connected architecture. At the centre of the design sits a single rule: each user verifies once, holds their own keys throughout, and operates independently across every product the platform offers.
Where much of the crypto industry has pursued visibility through disconnected tools running on competing chains, Fuutura has worked outside the spotlight for years. The team has been engineering the foundational infrastructure required to deliver financial access to the billions whose participation has been blocked by the legacy system.
The launch brings three products to market under the Fuutura name. Fuutura Identity, Fuutura Wallet, and Fuutura Trade have each been designed to stand alone while reinforcing the capabilities of the others.
Fuutura Trade has been described by the team as the trading layer crypto has spent fifteen years trying to build. The protocol is non-custodial and multi-chain, engineered for traders unwilling to compromise on architecture. On-chain execution. Cross-chain liquidity. A revolutionary single environment for the full range of on-chain digital assets: cryptocurrencies, stablecoins, governance and utility tokens, liquid staking tokens, wrapped assets, LP tokens, and other digital and tokenised assets. The protocol already knows the trader is verified, recognises the keys they hold, and trusts them to act on their own behalf.
No platform-managed orderbook. No off-chain matching. No third party with the keys.
The protocol works for the trader. Not the venue. Not the custodian. Not the intermediary.
That’s the difference.
“We didn’t set out to build another exchange. We set out to build the trading layer that’s missing from crypto. Non-custodial, on-chain, multi-chain, with identity attestation handled at the protocol layer rather than at every product. Once you build that architecture, the rest of the ecosystem becomes possible. Wallet, Identity, Trade. They all run on the same foundation, and that’s why the protocol can recognise the user and trust them to act on their own behalf without intermediaries getting in the way,” said Ellis McGrath, Co-founder and Chief Technology Officer of Fuutura.
The Fuutura Identity product sits beneath the wider ecosystem as its trust layer. Verification runs through biometric authentication and liveness detection, paired with document recognition and AML screening, before producing an on-chain attestation linked directly to the user’s wallet. That attestation is then recognised across every product Fuutura operates. A single verification covers all subsequent interactions, with compliance happening within the protocol rather than at the entry to each individual product.
This is what gives Trade the ability to identify its user without running KYC a second time. It is also what allows Wallet to function with no intermediary involvement. Identity becomes the architecture itself.
Fuutura Wallet sits at the centre of the ecosystem as its custody and control layer. The wallet is non-custodial and multi-chain. Users retain their keys, direct the movement of their assets, and authorise their own transactions. It operates across blockchains and serves as the entry point to every Fuutura product, without surrendering custody to a third party at any stage.
The principle is simple: ownership is not delegated.
“The promise of crypto has always been that users could participate in finance without giving up custody, identity, or access. The reason that promise hasn’t delivered is that the architecture wasn’t there. Identity, custody, and execution have lived in separate places, and the user has paid the cost. Fuutura is being built so they live in one place, at the protocol layer, where they belong,” said Oliver Cook, Co-founder of Fuutura.
Three products are ready for launch. Additional products are under active development, each engineered to broaden identity usage, deepen wallet integration, and expand the reach of the ecosystem as Fuutura scales.
This is the broader vision Fuutura is working toward: a compliance-first financial ecosystem designed to deliver inclusion at a global scale, with the user positioned at its centre.

是次合作中，黎師傅以 EX M 雞球炒鮮蘆筍、EX M 中式牛柳、EX M 滷水羊腩、EX M花膠及內含肉類的煲湯料。 五道菜式融入 EX M，從家常小炒、嫩肉爆炒、滷水重味，以至湯品中高端食材入饌，實證此革命性醬汁如何覆蓋光譜兩端之食材，更上一層樓。
綜合五道菜之實踐，黎師傅就 EX M 之功效，總結出四項核心突破：
一、鎖住氨基酸並補充水分 令肉質多汁鮮嫩
肉類於烹調過程中，氨基酸與水分流失乃鮮味散失之元兇。EX M 之分子結構能於醃製階段滲入肉纖維，鎖住氨基酸並補入水分。EX M 滷水羊腩乃此功效之最佳例證——黎師傅僅以約一成 EX M 入滷，毋須繁複香料，羊腩外裹滷香，內藏原汁，夾起時肉汁猶能外溢。黎師傅指出：「傳統粵式燜法須以重料壓羶，食客所嚐者乃調味料而非羊肉本身。EX M 並不喧賓奪主，而是鎖住肉汁，讓羊肉本身之鮮甜躍然舌上。」EX M 中式牛柳亦同此理——猛火爆炒下，EX M 鎖住氨基酸與水分，牛柳不致出水變韌，肉汁飽滿，鑊氣與本味並存。
二、自然放鬆肌肉纖維 帶來柔嫩口感及質感
黎師傅在炮製EX M 雞球炒鮮蘆筍時，發現經 EX M 醃製後之雞球，咀嚼輕鬆，肉質鬆軟而不失彈性。此特質令 EX M 有別於小蘇打：後者雖能嫩化肉質，惟易致鬆散變質、產生鹼澀怪味；EX M 則能自然放鬆纖維而不破壞肉質結構，亦不帶任何異味，乃一般食品輔料難以兼顧之多重效益。同樣效果於EX M 中式牛柳亦清晰可見——牛柳纖維鬆而不散，質感遠勝以小蘇打或傳統嫩肉粉處理者。
三、大幅提升滋味和新鮮感
EX M 之獨特之處，在於放大食材本味而不予搶風味。黎師傅形容其為「味道放大器」，能引發肉類深層之蛋白質甜味，呼應宮廷烹飪「和而不沖」之古老哲學。此功效於EX M 煲湯之湯料肉體現得最為徹底——港人煲湯文化深厚，惟湯渣肉每遭棄置，或沾豉油後才可勉強食用。黎師傅謂之「味道斷層」：傳統豉油令食材變酸變膩，徒有重味而失本鮮。EX M 之分子結構瞬間填補肉纖維流失之鮮味空間，平民湯料立化御膳，回甘之鮮自舌底湧出。
試用 EX M 醬後，黎師傅總結：「EX M 鎖住肉質之氨基酸並補充水分，令肉質多汁鮮嫩；自然放鬆肌肉纖維，帶來柔嫩口感及質感；大幅提升滋味和新鮮感；帶來持久濃厚回味之 Kokumi 體驗。觀乎五菜實踐，此四項突破於大多數菜式中皆能一一體現。廚師若以 EX M 入饌，省時之餘，菜式水準亦更上層樓。」
新福記酒家 宮廷小滿漢「EX M鹿名宴」登場
黎師傅同時擔任新福記酒家顧問，將於餐廳推出以 EX M 為核心之宮廷小滿漢「鹿名宴」主題套餐，將 EX M 之質地與風味優勢應用於多款菜式，讓食客親身品嚐御廚傳人傳承與現代烹飪技術完美結合之突破性宮廷主題料理。
全宴共設十品，菜式名稱皆取意典雅，呼應宮廷之風。EX M 醬料貫穿，助提升鮮味、濃味、鎖水保汁及質地口感。
菜式如下： EX M袖掩金釵 ─ 蘆筍雲腿釀雞翼 EX M玉帶環腰 ─ 蟹黃節瓜煎釀帶子 EX M王侯玉扣 ─ 南瓜汁扣花膠 EX M金縷銀針 ─ 紅燒素翅 EX M麟潛碧海 ─ 雞油花彫蒸東星班 EX M竹溪疏影 ─ 竹笙扒時蔬 EX M五穀豐登 ─ 三色炒飯 慈禧桂花糕 ─ 桂花糕 EX M福壽延年 ─ 蔥油拌麵 雪點清蓮 ─ 雪耳蓮子糖水
$1,088 / 位，於2026 年 6 月 1 日起接受預訂。
