HONG KONG, Apr 29, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Asia’s annual flagship licensing events, the Hong Kong International Licensing Show and the Asian Licensing Conference, concluded successfully today. Organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), the three-day extravaganza for the licensing trade ran from 27 to 29 April, attracting more than 330 exhibitors and showcasing over 600 brands and licensing projects. The Asian Licensing Conference brought together some 20 international licensing experts to explore key industry topics, including global licensing trends and the industry outlook, intellectual property (IP) licensing strategies for overseas expansion, sports licensing, location-based entertainment, food and beverage licensing, and creative marketing strategies. The two events served as cross-regional and cross-sectoral business expansion platforms across multiple categories, creating global business opportunities for participants and promoting regional IP trade development.Jenny Koo, Deputy Executive Director of the HKTDC, said: “Under the support of the national 15th Five-Year Plan, Hong Kong continues to deepen its role as a regional IP trading hub. As one of Asia’s most mature licensing markets, the city boasts a well-established industry ecosystem, with the licensing sector serving as a core engine for IP trade. We are pleased to see licensing applications expanding from traditional character merchandising to cover location-based entertainment, food and beverage, e-commerce and a host of other fields, forming a complete licensing industry chain that helps to create more business opportunities for the industry globally.”In response to the rapid development and growing popularity of e-commerce, this year’s Licensing Show introduced the new IP and e-Commerce Support Services Zone. In collaboration with the E-commerce Association of Hong Kong, Hong Kong eCommerce Supply Chain Association and the Hong Kong Federation of E-Commerce, the zone hosted multiple workshops on building online shops, digital marketing and livestream commerce, helping small and medium-size enterprises (SMEs) capitalise on e-commerce to sell their IP products globally.Among the participants was Digitify Online Growth, an e-commerce platform specialising in digital marketing and e-commerce operation solutions. Kay Leung from the company said: “The greatest value of this new dedicated zone lies in ‘promotion’ and ‘education’. In the current economic climate, industries across different sectors are actively seeking new avenues to expand their business. This zone serves as an essential foundation for SMEs, raising awareness of how to effectively leverage e-commerce as a springboard to promote their brands and sell their IP products to the global market.” Prof. Charles Ng from another exhibitor, StarLite IPC Limited, said: “This year's Licensing Show has truly played the role of an ‘all-rounded accelerator’ in driving industry growth. During this critical period of economic recovery in the Asian market, the show has successfully brought together leading licensors, licensing agents and brand owners from around the world, providing an efficient business matchmaking platform for IP licensing-focused enterprises like ours."Commenting on the impact of the new IP and e-Commerce Support Services Zone, Jenny Koo said: “This aligns well with the direction of the Hong Kong SAR Government’s policy to enhance the competitiveness of Hong Kong SMEs in relation to cross-border e-commerce. The HKTDC will continue to provide an ideal platform for the global licensing industry to showcase more diversified brand licensing projects, strengthening Hong Kong's position as an international licensing hub.”The Licensing Show continued to feature the DLAB Hong Kong Pavilion, bringing together nearly 40 exhibitors to showcase multiple Hong Kong original brands and IPs. Among them, local designer Kirsten Lie presented her original IPs and secured collaboration opportunities with overseas shopping malls. She said: “The current negotiations are highly encouraging, with enthusiastic responses all around. We are now in serious discussions with two overseas shopping malls and will meet with their senior management next week to move the partnership forward.” Another participating designer, James Ho, said “This year's Licensing Show provides an excellent brand promotion platform for local designers, enabling us to reach and engage with potential partners from diverse sectors on a broad scale.” In addition, this year’s Hong Kong Licensing Force Showcase featured The Hang Seng University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong Baptist University and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, with the newly participating Hong Kong Design Institute joining to showcase creative designs by emerging local talents.Key topics at this year’s Asian Licensing Conference included how non-traditional toy IPs resonate with young consumers in the emotional economy along with new development models for food and beverage licensing. George Wood, Managing Director of The Luna Entertainment Group, shared on location-based entertainment during the session, saying: “We learned that one of the non-negotiables has to do is with the depth of affection, which is often related to the number of hours the audience has spent with the IP”. He also expressed his belief that transforming entertainment brands into experiences is one of the revenue engines offering long-term value. In another session, Mark Kingston, CEO and Co-founder of Libertas Brands Ltd, mentioned the rising popularity of non-traditional toys such as Fugglers, whose deliberately designed “ugly-cute” appearance echoes the rise of the emotion economy. “We want to ensure that every Fuggler engages different individuals, and that every individual can find a Fuggler that suits their personality or particular mood. That is key to the storytelling nature of Fugglers,” Mr Kingston said.Mainland institutions exhibit with distinctive cultural and creative brandsThe Chinese Mainland Pavilion brought together more than 150 institutions from regions including Beijing, Shaanxi, Jiangsu, Guangdong, Sichuan and more. Popular IPs such as Nailoong, Suchao, Tang Fugui, the Sun and Immortal Birds made their debut at the event, demonstrating the innovative vitality of the mainland’s cultural tourism IPs. Among the exhibitors in the pavilion were more than 20 cultural and museum institutions including Guangdong Museum, Nanjing Museum and the Xu Beihong Memorial Museum, showcasing the richness of the nation’s historical and cultural resources. This year, the distinctive Beijing Museums brand from the Beijing Municipal Cultural Heritage Bureau made its first overseas appearance. World cultural heritage sites such as the Great Wall and the Summer Palace collectively presented the unique character of Beijing’s heritage.Multiple MoUs signed to deepen collaboration and exchange in the licensing industrySeveral memoranda of understanding were signed during the two major licensing events, including one between the Beijing Municipal Cultural Heritage Bureau and the HKTDC. Building on their longstanding cooperation, both parties now aim to continue deepening cultural and economic exchange and collaboration under the broader framework of Beijing-Hong Kong cooperation. The MoU encourages both parties to actively build a cultural and museum cooperation platform, facilitating Beijing institutions to make use of the HKTDC’s platforms to explore aligning Beijing’s cultural and museum IPs and museum collections with Hong Kong’s professional strengths in the areas of creative design, IP transformation and licensing services, promoting the commercialisation, internationalisation and digital development of cultural and museum resources, and providing an effective way of telling China's stories.Another MoU was signed between the Innovative Entrepreneur Association (IEA) and the Shantou Cultural and Creative Tourism Industry Association, aiming to strengthen cultural and creative industry collaboration between Hong Kong and Shantou and promote the deep integration and coordinated development of the two cities’ cultural, creative and tourism industries. This collaboration was facilitated by the HKTDC following a study mission by a Hong Kong licensing industry delegation to the Greater Bay Area and South China market in January this year to explore development opportunities and business prospects. The signing of the MoU represents a further deepening of exchange and cooperation between industry players in both cities.Photo download: https://bit.ly/3QDbhJJHKTDC Executive Director Sophia Chong attended the opening ceremony of the Hong Kong International Licensing Show and Asian Licensing Conference on Monday (27 April) and delivered the welcome remarks.(From left) Commissioner for Cultural and Creative Industries of CCIDA, Drew Lai; Director, Asia Tourism Exchange Centre, Zhang Dong; HKTDC Executive Director, Sophia Chong; Permanent Secretary for Culture, Sports and Tourism, HKSAR Government, Sum Fong Kwang, Vivian; Plan and Policy Analyst Expert Level, Ministry of Culture, Thailand, Narathorn Parndee; and President and CEO of Licensing International, Maura Regan, officiated the opening ceremony.The Hong Kong International Licensing Show introduced the IP and e-Commerce Support Services Zone for the first time this year, supporting brands and IP projects in capturing new opportunities brought by e-commerce development.The Design Licensing and Business (DLAB) Support Scheme brought together nearly 40 exhibitors, showcasing multiple Hong Kong original brands and IPs.Multiple tertiary institutions participated in the Hong Kong Licensing Force Showcase, showcasing creative designs by emerging local talents.Mainland cultural and museum institutions exhibited at the Licensing Show, bringing a variety of distinctive cultural and creative brands.The Beijing Municipal Cultural Heritage Bureau and the HKTDC signed a memorandum of understanding during the two major events aimed at deepening cultural and economic exchange and collaboration between the two cities.The Asian Licensing Conference invited industry leaders to explore multiple market-focused topics.WebsitesHong Kong International Licensing Show: https://www.hktdc.com/event/hklicensingshow/enAsian Licensing Conference: https://www.hktdc.com/event/hklicensingshow/en/programme'category=all&date=allHKTDC Media Room: http://mediaroom.hktdc.com/enMedia enquiriesFor more information, please contact Raconteur:Molisa LauTel: 6187 7786Email: molisalau@raconteur.hkBetsy TseTel: 9742 7338Email: betsytse@raconteur.hkHKTDC’s Communications & Public Affairs Department:Winnie KanTel: 2584 4055Email: winnie.wy.kan@hktdc.orgAbout HKTDCThe Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) celebrates its 60th anniversary this year.

HONG KONG, Apr 29, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - In 2025, China's catering industry surpassed RMB5.7 trillion in total market size, maintaining steady and healthy growth momentum. The sector has shifted its focus from scale expansion to efficiency improvement and structural optimization, entering a new stage of high-quality development. The industry’s chain store ratio climbed for six consecutive years to 25%, with food delivery penetration exceeding 30%. AI and supply chain technologies are further reshaping operational models across the sector. Amid this structural adjustment, Xiao Noodles, a leading and rapidly growing Chinese noodle restaurants operator in China, has secured a solid foothold amid industry reshuffling by focusing on operational efficiency, product quality and long-term value creation.Rising Profitability with Robust Growth in Scale and Performance As the “First-listed Chinese Noodle Restaurant”, Xiao Noodles (2408.HK) unveiled its inaugural financial results since its listing. During the Reporting Period, the Company posted total revenue of RMB1,622.4 million, a year-on-year increase of 40.5%. Its net profit reached RMB106.1 million, representing a year-on-year growth of 74.8%. Adjusted net profit stood at RMB135.4 million, up 111.9% year on year, reflecting a sustained improvement in profitability. By the end of 2025, the brand’s total restaurant network had expanded to 503 outlets.Driven by the expansion of self-operated restaurants, revenue from self-operated restaurants rose by 44.9% year on year from RMB1.00 billion in 2024 to RMB1.45 billion in 2025. Its revenue contribution increased from 86.7% in 2024 to 89.4% in 2025, demonstrating strong resilience of the self-operated model. Meanwhile, the proportion of food delivery revenue in total revenue jumped from 15.6% in 2024 to 23.3% in 2025, emerging as a new key driver of overall revenue growth.In terms of operational efficiency, the average daily orders per restaurant for its self-operated restaurants and franchised restaurants increased from 386 and 390 in 2024 to 406 and 412 in 2025, respectively. As of the end of 2025, Xiao Noodles had 395 self-operated restaurants and 92 franchised restaurants in 24 cities in the Chinese Mainland, 15 restaurants in Hong Kong SAR and one restaurant in Singapore, steadily advancing its national and international expansion.While achieving steady operational growth, the Company has maintained a strong commitment to shareholder returns. The Board proposed a final dividend of RMB0.03 per H share for fiscal 2025, representing a payout ratio of over 50%. This proposal not only delivers tangible returns to shareholders for their long-term support, but also underscores the Company’s financial health, characterized by genuine profitability and robust cash flows. It further enhances investor confidence and trust in the Company’s corporate governance and brand value.Deepening ESG Practices: Public Welfare and Talent Co-create Long-term ValueAs ESG becomes a core measure of long-term corporate value for measuring a company’s long-term value, Xiao Noodles has embedded social responsibility into its business model, emergency response, and talent investment. In 2025, its public welfare donations reached RMB1.4 million.Since 2023, the Company has launched the “Baobao Meal Charity Program”, donating RMB0.1 for every baby meal sold for public welfare purposes. As of the end of 2025, approximately 2.18 million baby meals had been sold cumulatively, generating public welfare funds of approximately RMB218,000. This has created a virtuous cycle: rising sales - a larger pool of charitable funds - stronger brand reputation. In September 2025, the Company, together with the Shanghai United Foundation, donated RMB100,000 to launch the “An Egg Donation Activity,” providing rural children with a daily egg and nutrition education courses. Through tangible actions, the initiative focuses on supporting the health and education of underprivileged children. In terms of talent and innovation investment, the Company partnered with South China University of Technology to establish the “Campus Culture Construction Fund” and the “Innovation and Entrepreneurship Public Welfare Fund.” In 2024, the Company donated RMB600,000, with a planned cumulative donation of RMB3 million over five years. An additional RMB300,000 was contributed in 2025, demonstrating its ongoing commitment to supporting education and cultivating innovative talent.In response to emergencies, the Company has demonstrated a well-established emergency response capability. Following the fire incident at Wang Fuk Court in Tai Po, Hong Kong, in November 2025, the Company activated its emergency charitable response mechanism on the same day and donated HKD1 million to support the resettlement of affected residents, reflecting a robust ESG governance structure and effective authorization mechanisms.In addition, the Company places strong emphasis on internal talent development, adhering to the philosophy that “Talent Drives Development,” and provides employees with continuous learning and career advancement opportunities. During the reporting period, the employee training coverage rate reached 100%, with a total of 40,756 training hours and an average of 19.8 hours per employee, ranking at a relatively high level within the industry. The Company has established an online training system based on digital infrastructure, offering standardized training programs and comprehensive on-boarding training for new employees to ensure consistency in professional standards and service experience. While reducing talent development costs during store expansion, this system also shortens the ramp-up period for new stores, thereby securing a stable talent supply chain to support rapid expansion.From product-driven micro-philanthropy to targeted engagement with specific social issues, and further to long-term investment in education, rapid crisis response, and internal talent development, Xiao Noodles has established a clear path that balances “the integration of business and social welfare, as well as short-term and long-term priorities.” In doing so, the Company has also built strategic assets that enhance brand premium, reduce employee turnover, and strengthen investor confidence.Forward-Looking Industry Positioning with Promising Growth PotentialFrom an industry perspective, the Chinese fast-casual dining sector is accelerating its transformation toward standardization, digitalization, and branding. Firstly, consumer demand for healthy, convenient, and cost-effective dining options continues to rise, benefiting leading players with strong supply chain capabilities and economies of scale as market concentration increases. Secondly, AI and automation technologies are reshaping cost structures, with applications such as intelligent workforce scheduling, precise inventory management, and autonomous delivery gradually being implemented, further unlocking technological dividends. In addition, ESG performance has become a key metric for assessing the long-term value of restaurant enterprises, as non-financial factors such as green stores, low-carbon operations, and community responsibility increasingly influence both capital allocation and consumer choice. Leveraging its strengths in product innovation, operational efficiency, and early-mover advantage in ESG practices, Xiao Noodles is well positioned to further expand its market share within its niche segment.Overall, in 2025, Xiao Noodles delivered an exceptional dining experience through flavorful dishes, high-quality service, and a distinctive dining atmosphere. The Company achieved notable results in profitability, financial optimization, shareholder returns, and green practices, successfully transitioning from scale-driven expansion to quality-driven growth. Looking ahead, as industry consolidation accelerates and digitalization and ESG initiatives gain traction, the Company's competitiveness is expected to strengthen further, driving its results of operations to a new height and injecting strong momentum into the high-quality development and green transformation of the industry.

Since its debut at KTSP last year, the programme has identified numerous promising young fencers, providing them with 1.5 years of elite training and injecting fresh energy into the local fencing scene. With CTF Life once again serving as the Title Sponsor this year, the programme’s selection quota has expanded to 1,000 participants, offering more students the opportunity to receive professional training. Former Olympic Games representative of the Hong Kong Fencing Team and Asian Games Double Bronze Medallist, Antonio Lam returns as Head Coach, leading a professional coaching team to ensure high-quality and consistent training.The Selection Day and Kick-off Ceremony of the “Fencing Plus” Training Programme 2026 were successfully held on 26 April at Kai Tak Arena. Building on the enthusiastic response received last year, the 1,000 available slots include dedicated quotas for CTF Life-CIRCLE members, while full sponsorship will continue to be offered to underprivileged students. Primary school students aged 8 to 11 from Kowloon City, Kwun Tong, Wong Tai Sin and Yau Tsim Mong districts were invited to take part, giving more children the opportunity to be introduced to the sport. The two-year training programme is structured into five stages, using a selection-based training and competition model to identify potential young fencers. Top performers will advance to elite training with opportunities to progress into professional athlete development and participate in competitions. The selection trials featured 10 fencing test zones, allowing participants to challenge themselves through physical fitness assessments and discover their potential. CTF Life also introduced a series of interactive experience zones, including the “Strike & Score Fencing Game”, the “Fencing Collection Card Photo Booth,” and the “AR 360-degree Fencing Champion Stage”, encouraging parents and children to take part in sports together and experience the unique charm of fencing.Honourable guests – Man Kit Ip, Executive Director and CEO of CTF Life; Andrew Kam, Chief Executive Officer of Kai Tak Sports Park Limited; NG Hoi-shan, Aaron, MH, President of the Fencing Association of Hong Kong, China; and Antonio Lam, Head Coach of the “Fencing Plus” Training Programme – also attended the event and officiated the Kick-off Ceremony.Man Kit Ip, Executive Director and CEO of CTF Life, said: “As the exclusive Founding Insurance Partner of KTSP, and in celebration of CTF Life’s 40th anniversary, we are delighted to once again serve as the Title Sponsor of KTSI’s ‘Fencing Plus’ Training Programme.

宾夕法尼亚州费城, 2026年4月28日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - TruMerit™（前身为CGFNS International）今日发布了《2025年护士流动报告》，揭示了全球护士流动模式的显著变化，以及在医疗需求差异巨大的各地区之间，护理人员分布不均现象日益加剧。该报告通过分析世界卫生组织数据及TruMerit专有的VisaScreen®申请记录显示，国际护士流动正日益集中于医疗基础设施更完善的地区，而面临严重护士短缺的地区在雇佣国际教育背景护士的能力方面持续处于劣势。欧洲和东南亚的国际护士就业人数大幅增加。根据TruMerit对世卫组织护理人员数据的分析，欧洲目前雇佣的国际教育背景护士占其医疗保健劳动力的8.01%，而过去十年的平均水平为5.96%——这一趋势呈现出持续且显著的上升态势。东南亚地区国际教育背景护士占医疗卫生工作力的比例高达24.87%，而过去十年的平均水平为20.15%——尽管过去十年间存在波动，但这再次表明了显著且稳定的增长趋势。同期，东地中海和非洲地区国际教育背景护士的比例有所下降，加剧了医疗资源匮乏地区现有的护士短缺问题。“这些数据揭示了全球范围内日益加剧的不平衡现象：资源充沛的卫生系统正在加速吸纳海外受过教育的护士，而护理人员短缺最严重的地区却正失去雇佣这些他们迫切需要的专业人才的能力，”TruMerit总裁兼首席执行官彼得·普雷齐奥西博士表示。“要纠正这种分配失衡，需要来源国和目的地国采取协调行动——这需要建立在伦理招聘框架的基础上，通过更强有力的双边协议来帮助抵消来源国承担的教育和培训成本，并对医疗资源匮乏地区的护理教育和卫生系统能力进行持续投资。”国际护士职业发展路径日益复杂该报告强调了国际护士流动性日益增强的趋势。TruMerit对2021至2024年VisaScreen资质认证数据的分析显示，约3%移居美国的护士在申请美国执业许可前已在其他国家有过国际工作经历——这表明全球护理劳动力流动性日益增强，多次跨国职业流动正变得越来越普遍。“本报告的数据清楚地表明，护士流动不仅仅是一个供需问题——它反映了全球医疗教育、就业容量及医疗资源分配方面更深层次的结构性不平等，”TruMerit全球事务首席官罗德里戈·戈维亚（Rodrigo Gouveia）表示。“协调一致的政策框架、对护理教育体系的投资，以及加强医疗资源匮乏地区的医疗基础设施建设，对于确保国际护士流动能够促进而非加剧全球卫生公平至关重要。”新兴风险：人工智能生成的资质造假威胁护理人员队伍的诚信《2025年护士流动报告》还探讨了威胁医疗卫生人员队伍诚信的新兴风险，包括预计将增加的人工智能生成的职业欺诈。行业分析师预测，到2026年，每四份求职者资料中就有一份可能是由人工智能伪造的，这凸显了经过验证的护士资质认证系统对于保障患者安全的重要性日益凸显。完整的《2025年护士流动报告》可在此处下载。关于TruMeritTruMerit是全球医疗卫生人才发展的领军机构，在支持护士及其他医疗卫生工作者职业流动方面拥有近50年的经验。TruMerit前身为CGFNS International，致力于为寻求在美国及其他国家获得执业许可的海外医疗卫生专业人员，对其教育背景、培训经历及专业经验进行认证。通过其扩展的使命以及全球卫生人才发展研究院，TruMerit 致力于推进相关研究、标准及认证工作，以增强全球卫生人才队伍建设，并促进公平、可持续的职业流动。媒体联系LEA SIMS首席营销与传播官TruMeritmedia@trumerit.org来源：TruMerit Copyright 2026 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Apr 28, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - TruMerit™ (formerly CGFNS International) today released its 2025 Nurse Migration Report, revealing significant shifts in global nurse migration patterns and widening inequities in nursing workforce distribution across regions with vastly different healthcare needs.The report, which analyzes World Health Organization data and TruMerit's proprietary VisaScreen® application records, shows that international nurse migration flows are increasingly concentrated in regions with stronger healthcare infrastructure, while areas facing severe nursing shortages continue to lose ground in their ability to employ internationally educated nurses.Europe and Southeast Asia see sharp increases in international nurse employment. According to TruMerit's analysis of WHO nursing workforce data, Europe now employs internationally educated nurses at a rate representing 8.01% of its healthcare workforce, compared to a ten-year average of 5.96%-a persistent and significant upward trend. Southeast Asia has seen internationally educated nurses as high as 24.87% of the healthcare workforce, compared to a ten-year average of 20.15%-again, indicative of a notable, steady trend despite fluctuations over the past decade. During the same period, the proportion of internationally educated nurses working in the Eastern Mediterranean and African regions has declined, exacerbating existing nursing shortages in underserved areas."These data expose a widening global imbalance: well-resourced health systems are accelerating their absorption of internationally educated nurses, while regions with the most severe nursing shortages are losing the capacity to employ the very professionals they urgently need," said Dr. Peter Preziosi, President and CEO of TruMerit. "Correcting this maldistribution will require coordinated action by both source and destination countries--grounded in ethical recruitment frameworks, stronger bilateral agreements that help offset the education and training costs borne by source countries, and sustained investment in nursing education and health system capacity in underserved regions."Growing Complexity of International Nurse Career PathwaysThe report highlights increasing mobility among internationally educated nurses. TruMerit's analysis of VisaScreen credentialing data from 2021-2024 shows that approximately 3% of nurses migrating to the United States had already worked internationally in another country before applying for U.S. authorization-evidence of an increasingly mobile global nursing workforce in which multiple international career moves are becoming more common."The data in this report make clear that nurse migration is not simply a matter of supply and demand-it reflects deeper structural inequities in how healthcare education, employment capacity, and healthcare resources are distributed globally," said Rodrigo Gouveia, Chief Global Affairs Officer at TruMerit. "Coordinated policy frameworks, investment in nursing education systems, and strengthening of health infrastructure in underserved regions are essential to ensuring that international nurse migration supports rather than exacerbates global health equity."Emerging Risks: AI-Generated Credential Fraud Threatens Nursing Workforce IntegrityThe 2025 Nurse Migration Report also examines emerging risks to healthcare workforce integrity, including the projected rise in AI-generated occupational fraud. Industry analysts project that by 2026, one in four job candidate profiles may be fabricated by artificial intelligence, underscoring the increasing importance of verified nurse credentialing systems for protecting patient safety.The full 2025 Nurse Migration Report is available for download here.About TruMeritTruMerit is a worldwide leader in healthcare workforce development with nearly 50 years of experience supporting the mobility of nurses and other healthcare workers. Formerly CGFNS International, TruMerit validates the education, training, and professional experience of internationally educated health professionals seeking authorization to practice in the United States and other countries.

Tenstorrent Galaxy integrates with open-source frameworks through TT-ForgeTM and TT-Lang, and supports rapid model bring-up, enabling customers to deploy production AI systems without vendor lock-in or proprietary stacks. 90% of models from HuggingFace just work on Tenstorrent hardware.Networked AIThese results are enabled by an architecture built around a different constraint. Most AI accelerators treat compute as the primary design problem. Tenstorrent instead solved data placement and data flow first which enables performance through scaling."Every company in the industry is pairing up to build the accelerator accelerator accelerator. CPUs run code. GPUs accelerate CPUs. TPUs accelerate GPUs. LPUs accelerate TPUs. And so on. This leads to complex solutions which are unlikely to be compatible with changes in AI models and uses. At Tenstorrent, we thought something more general and simpler would work," said Jim Keller, CEO of Tenstorrent.The result is what Tenstorrent calls Networked AI: a new model for AI infrastructure where compute, memory, and networking are unified into a single system optimized for real-world AI workloads. By combining efficient data placement and data flow, high bandwidth on-chip memory, and Ethernet-based scale-out, the architecture scales from a single core to thousands of servers under one software model, without proprietary interconnects, without reconfiguration, and without the rigid workload declarations that make competing systems brittle as models evolve.DeploymentsTenstorrent Galaxy superclusters are one of the new foundations of Equinix's Distributed AI HubTM, a full-stack AI orchestration platform for agentic workloads, launching today with partners BetterBrain and OrionVM.

This level of architectural intelligence allows enterprises to stay focused on building differentiated products, not managing infrastructure complexity," said Justen Aguillon, Director of Technology Partner Ecosystems."We're enabling a new class of AI factories-high-performance, cost-efficient environments with the flexibility to run both frontier and open-source models, and the embedded telemetry and governance required to scale agentic systems globally."Additional deployments announced today include:Virtu Financial, a tier-1 market maker working with Tenstorrent to enable real-world AI systems: on-premises agentic AI solutions for trading and operational automationTuriyam, a next-generation semiconductor and AI infrastructure company building datacenter-scale inference chips, software, and systems from India for the worldCirrascale, a top tier neocloud with cloud services for agentic applications and generative AI, available in the US and multiple international regionsai&, Japan's vertically integrated AI platform: the largest installation of Tenstorrent hardware to power AI infrastructure, models, and applications across Japan and around the world."We evaluate a lot of hardware. Most of it is incremental. Tenstorrent Galaxy Blackhole is not. Tenstorrent has taken a clean-sheet approach to AI infrastructure, and the results speak for themselves. Putting this in the hands of our customers is exactly the kind of move Cirrascale exists to make." said Dave Driggers, CEO and Co-Founder, Cirrascale Cloud Services.Run anything - Fast, Simple, Affordable - with Tenstorrent Galaxy Blackhole.Tenstorrent Galaxy Blackhole is Tenstorrent's air-cooled compute server built with Tenstorrent's next-generation Blackhole® chips and fully open-source software stack.

In March 2026, the total value of Hong Kong’s merchandise exports recorded a year-on-year increase of 35.8% to HK$618.4 billion. For the first quarter of 2026, the total value of exports of goods amounted to HK$1,546.2 billion, representing a robust growth of 32.0% compared with the same period last year.Commenting on the outlook, Bruce Pang, Director of Research at the Hong Kong Trade Development Council, said Hong Kong’s exports are expected to remain steady at least in the near term, despite elevated energy prices arising from ongoing tensions in the Middle East. He noted Hong Kong’s external trade has continued to exhibit clear growth momentum, underpinned primarily by sustained global demand for electronic items and other intermediate goods that are integral to regional and global supply chains.In particular, resilient input demand from the Chinese Mainland and other ASEAN production sites, together with stable demand from major overseas markets, has provided a solid buffer against external headwinds. While geopolitical uncertainties persist and energy prices are likely to remain relatively high, continued industrial activity in major markets, as well as ongoing supply-chain realignments, are expected to lend ongoing support to Hong Kong’s trade flows.“Overall, we maintain a cautiously optimistic outlook for Hong Kong’s trade performance, while remaining mindful of potential volatility arising from geopolitical developments and cost pressures,” Pang added.HKTDC Media Room: https://mediaroom.hktdc.com/enMedia enquiriesPlease contact the HKTDC’s Communications & Public Affairs Department:Jane CheungTel: (852) 2584 4137Email: jane.mh.cheung@hktdc.orgAbout HKTDCThe Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) celebrates its 60th anniversary this year.

HONG KONG, Apr 28, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - CanSino Biologics Inc. (688185.SH/06185.HK) released its first-quarter 2026 results, reflecting a positive operational momentum. Revenue for the quarter totaled RMB 190 million, representing a 38.73% year-over-year increase.The performance highlights the company’s strong operational resilience, driven by accelerating sales of core products and ongoing cost-efficiency measures. Despite short-term pressure on profitability, steady revenue expansion sets a solid foundation for a full-year earnings recovery.Menhycia(R), the first MCV4 vaccine product in China, maintained robust sales during the period. The successful launch of iPneucia(R) (13-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide conjugate vaccine) also contributed considerable revenue to the Group. Meanwhile, international technology transfer and intermediate products sales have gradually emerged as new revenue growth drivers.CanSinoBIO has developed a differentiated portfolio of bacterial vaccines, covering meningococcal, pneumococcal and DTcP vaccines. The company leverages five core technology platforms, including viral vector vaccines, synthetic vaccines, protein structure design and Virus-Like Particle (VLP) assembly, mRNA technologies, and formulation and delivery systems. This diversified pipeline helps mitigate the “single-product dependency” that has historically challenged traditional vaccine manufacturers.Among its key products, Menhycia(R), China’s first domestically developed quadrivalent meningococcal conjugate vaccine, has continued to gain market traction following approval for expanded use in children up to six years old, driving steady gains in market penetration. Meanwhile, iPneucia(R), China’s first 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine using a dual-carrier system (CRM197 and tetanus toxoid), has ramped up since launch and emerged as a key growth driver.In April, the company also received approval for Tripecia(R), an adsorbed acellular pertussis (three-component) combination vaccine (DTcP) for infants. Leveraging next-generation technology, the product fills a gap in the domestic market and further strengthens CanSinoBIO’s presence in the pediatric segment.Beyond the infant market, CanSinoBIO is advancing a “life-course immunization (from infancy through old age)” strategy, expanding into adolescent and adult vaccines. Pipeline candidates, including adolescent and adult component Tdap vaccines (Tdcp) and a 24-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, are progressing through development and clinical trials, aimed at broadening the company’s addressable market.On the international front, the company continues to pursue a dual-engine strategy of innovation and global expansion, transitioning from product exports to a more integrated global model. Menhycia(R) has been launched and supplied in Indonesia, while manufacturing facilities for both Menhycia(R) and iPneucia(R) have obtained PIC/S GMP certification from Malaysia. This integrated approach, spanning product registration, localized manufacturing and technology transfer, is expected to unlock significant opportunities in overseas markets.Looking ahead, with the continued ramp-up of core products and the gradual commercialization of its life-course vaccine pipeline, CanSinoBIO’s long-term value proposition may be poised for a re-rating, supported by both earnings’ growth and an expanding global footprint.

First phase drilling program underway at the 100% owned Condobolin epithermal gold, silver-base metals project located in the Cobar BasinCapital efficient sole funded drilling program of up to eight diamond core holes First systematic drilling in over a decade at the historic Condobolin Mineral Field Testing down dip, on strike, new adjacent coincident geochemical and geophysical targets at the high-grade Meritilga discovery Fully funded follow-up drilling proposed at Meritilga, with additional targets including other open prior discoveries and larger causative porphyry centers also under considerationRecent corporate activity highlights the value on high-grade projects in the Cobar BasinDrilling is ongoing in partnership with AngloGold Ashanti at the highly prospective Nevertire South porphyry project in the Macquarie ArcVancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - April 28, 2026) - Gold-copper explorer and hybrid project generator Kincora Copper Limited (ASX: KCC) (TSXV: KCC) (Kincora or the Company) is pleased to announce drilling has commenced at the Condobolin project, located in the southern end of the Cobar Basin in Central West NSW.John Holliday, Technical Committee chair, and Peter Leaman, VP of Exploration, commented,"We are very excited to be drilling at two highly prospective projects, including the first systematic drilling program in over a decade at our wholly owned Condobolin project. Our recent efforts have included consolidating the historic Condobolin mining field, an extensive airborne geophysical survey, a regional assessment of shallow historical workings, open prior explorer discoveries and potential causative porphyry targets.While water and the weathering profile previously impeded mining and exploration efforts those historic obstacles now support a compelling opportunity. The last phase of drilling delivered proof-of-concept with strong results and straightforward exploration upside at multiple historical mines and new discoveries, including a blind high-grade gold discovery at Meritilga. Cobar style deposits are often vertically extensive with repeating mineral systems. Our commenced program will, for the first time, properly test that potential at Mertiliga and advance our geological concept of a deeper intrusion(s) driving zoned hydrothermal systems across multiple historical mines and targets - offering both attractive grade and scale opportunity.Recent M&A in the Cobar district highlights the strategic value of high-grade precious and critical mineral deposits, particularly where synergies can be unlocked from existing processing capacity. The Condobolin project is an asset where a junior explorer like Kincora can add significant value." Figure 1: Kincora is currently sole-funding drilling at the Condobolin Mining Field while AngloGold Ashanti funds drilling (with Kincora receiving a management fee) at the Nevertire South license which is part of two earn-ins within the Northern Junee-Narromine Belt projectThe southern Cobar Basin remains relatively under-explored, with several recent discoveries in historic mining districtsTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/294502_kincora_0427.jpgDistrict, regional and adjacent property information disclosed is provided for general awareness and educational purposes and is not necessarily indicative of any other project of the Company it is being compared to.ABOUT THE COBAR DISTRICTThe Cobar Basin has a 150-year history of high-grade, long-life mining and is an important supplier of critical and precious metals. The region benefits from established infrastructure and favourable ESG considerations with significant scope for processing and mining efficiencies, supporting further potential regional consolidation.The district has recently seen several significant new discoveries utilising modern exploration techniques in lesser explored regions (eg Federation, Achilles, Mallee Bull, Southern Nights and Wagga Tank) and emerging corporate activity (eg Harmony's A$1.6 billion takeover for MAC Copper (MAC.ASX), Aeris Resources A$214m acquisition of Peel Mining and Kingston Resources (KSN.ASX) recently receiving A$50 million cash for the first tranche of its divestment of its PNG Misima project).ABOUT THE CONDOBOLIN PROJECTThe Condobolin project was historically the focus of up to 25 informal open pit operations (peak late 1800's-early 1900's), with mining impacted by the water table and exploration by the weathering profile. The mineral field has not been effectively explored below the weathered zone (~30m).Very limited modern exploration has taken with initial activities by Clancy Exploration (Clancy, now RareX Limited) yielding encouraging results at all five prospects drilled (2011-13), including a virgin high-grade gold discovery at the Meritilga Prospect.More recently within the immediate district, Kingston Resources has significantly expanded the resources and restarted hard rock mining at the Mineral Hill mine, Talisman Mining has had success at its Rip N Tear and Durnings targets (to both the immediate north and south of Mineral Hill), while Australian Gold and Copper has excited the market with its new district scale discovery at its Achilles target located within the south western extension of the Cobar Basin.The Condobolin project is located approximately 40km south from the mill at Mineral Hill and north of the Condobolin town (which is the primary source of employees to Mineral Hill operation who drive through the Condobolin project to work) - see Figure 1.Kincora has consolidated a 100% project ownership and continued to expand our foothold across the near surface potential of the historical Condobolin Mineral Field. Approximately 20% of the wider project is out-sub cropping with the average depth of cover in non-outcropping areas less than 5 metres supporting very easy exploration with surface geology and sampling being an effective, quick and cheap methods.In 4Q'2025, the Company completed a ~150km2 airborne electro-magnetic (AEM) geophysical survey and the first systematic drilling program in over a decade commenced at the Meritilga target.Meritilga was a new blind shallow discovery made by Clancy in 2012 following up a coincident 2km x 2km arsenic-lead-zinc (+gold) geochemical anomaly and K-channel radiometric anomaly over ridges east of the historic mines at Mascotte and west of Potters. The anomalies coincided with key NE-striking structures identified in detailed 3D induced polarization (IP) surveys 1.The gold, silver and base metals system is situated within a lode with high grade lens (ore grade, eg 4m @ 20g/t gold, 30.2 g/t silver from 75m, including 1m @ 62g/t gold, 60g/t silver in hole CORC029) and a lower grade halo. The lode is a consistent body, open up and down dip 1, 2.Land access agreements are in place and the permitting process commenced for an up to 15 diamond drill hole program for 4100 metres testing down dip (up to 350m depth) and strike extensions and the potential for repeat high grade lens and/or a stacked series of lenses. Permits and land access are in place for a first phase program of up to eight holes.This setting is supported by the last phase of Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling by Clancy, the one diamond hole drilled by Kincora in 2023, coupled with a favourable structural setting where the main Meritilga Fault has been cross-cut by N-S trending faults 3.The program will also test new adjacent coincident geochemical and geophysical targets.The current working geological model, underpinned by pathfinder zonation and coincident geophysical anomalies, supports the potential for a larger mineralised intrusive source at depth, which this drilling program seeks to also support.ABOUT KINCORAKincora Copper Limited (ASX: KCC) (TSXV: KCC) is an emerging Australia-focused gold-copper explorer with a hybrid project generator strategy.The Company is successfully proving up the prospectivity of its extensive project portfolio, which includes multiple district-scale landholdings and scalable drill ready targets.
