HONG KONG, Sept 11, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Guotai Junan International Holdings Limited (“Guotai Junan International”, the “Company” or “GTJAI”, stock code: 1788.HK) announced that Moody's, an international credit rating agency, updated the company’s credit rating report and reaffirmed its “Baa2” long-term issuer credit rating with a “stable” outlook. Moody's believes that the support from the parent company Guotai Junan Securities and the support provided by the Chinese government through the parent company can offset the pressure on GTJAI's credit profile stemming from a complex external operating environment. In June 2024, GTJAI also received a reaffirmed "BBB+" investment grade rating (long-term issuer) from S&P with a "stable" outlook. At present, the Company's credit ratings continue to maintain a leading position among Hong Kong-based Chinese securities firms.

What I aspire to explore through design is the unique style and trends of the new generation of designers.”In his collection “Rager”, Tiger takes inspiration from Japanese anime series Dragon Ball and the character Son Goku, who transforms into a giant ape when angry, and the werewolf in Michael Jackson’s Thriller, who dances with zombies under a full moon. He also pays tribute to the rock singer Marilyn Manson’s style, mixing the structure of an evening dress with dungarees to combine the elegance of actress Marilyn Monroe with a darkerinspiration. Tailored to the violent nature of rage, Tiger’s four designs feature impact-resistant pads and abrasion-resistant materials for protection.Prizes: (1) A cash prize of HK$60,000; (2) An overseas study trip sponsored by Fang Brothers Knitting Ltd; (3) HK$5,000 CASETiFY e-Gift Card and capsule collection for sale online and at CASETiFY STUDiO Hong Kong storesExcellence AwardDesigner: K NgDesign: “Remnants of Light”The design: “The designs initially appear to be glittering and elegant, but underneath the glamour he seeks to represent the darker side of the human condition and the fragility of the human mind.”In his competing series “Remnants of Light,” K creates scenarios with details on fabric: the embroidery on the coat looks like fireworks, but actually symbolises the explosions of war. The piece is a luxurious floor-length coat, but as the wearer grips the straps and wraps themselves tightly underneath, they resemble a refugee. Prizes: (1) A cash prize of HK$40,000; (2) An overseas study trip sponsored by MINI HK; (3) HK$3,000 CASETiFY e-Gift Card and capsule collection for sale online and at CASETiFY STUDiO Hong Kong storesBest Art Direction Award and My Favourite Collection AwardDesigner: Yoyo ChanDesign: “Trouble X”The design: “At the age of two, we enter our first rebellious stage in life, and then are institutionalised. In a daze, we find ourselves marching to the beat of mainstream social expectations. Rebellion is always looming; once provoked, it erupts instantly.” Fashion designer Yoyo Chan is bored by the ordinary and wants to shatter expectations. Her “Trouble X” series breaks the stereotypical association of school uniforms by deconstructing the style, adding playful elements, and subverting expectations in the details. Highly saturated reds are interspersed with warm yellows, presenting a hot-blooded attitude and independent personality. As she frees the clothing from the rigidity of occasions, fashion design becomes an advocate for ageless rebellion.Prizes for the “Best Art Direction” Award: (1) A cash prize of HK$30,000 sponsored by Vogue Hong Kong; (2) HK$2,000 CASETiFY e-Gift Card and capsule collection for sale online and at CASETiFY STUDiO Hong Kong storesPrizes for the “My Favourite Collection” Award: (1) HK$20,000 Lee Gardens Area e-Gift Certificates sponsored by Hysan Development; (2) HK$2,000 CASETiFY e-Gift Card and capsule collection for sale online and at CASETiFY STUDiO Hong Kong stores Panther Chan(wearing Kinyan Lam; shoes by Pedro)Kaho Hung(wearing REDEMPTIVE; shoes by Pedro)Moon Tang(wearing röyksopp gakkai)from left to rightMoon Tang, Kaho Hung, Panther Chan(wearing röyksopp gakkai, REDEMPTIVE, Kinyan Lam)Dixon Wong(wearing MURFI LAU)Ah Gi(wearing FromClothingOf)Madboii(wearing WEAVIPEDIA)903DJ Leung Man Lai(wearing YAMA GUEST)from left to rightMadboii, Zelos, Ah Gi, Dixon(wearing MURFI LAU, MARCCH, FromClothingOf, WEAVIPEDIA)MINI x Johnson Chong/Kinyan Lam collaboration seriesFor the eighth consecutive year, MINI HK was the major sponsor of the YDC. This year, the brand collaborated with two YDC Alumni designers, Johnson Chong (YAMA GUEST) and Kinyan Lam (Kinyan Lam), to present a fashion collection inspired by its latest car models.MINI x Johnson Chong (YAMA GUEST)YAMA GUEST has collaborated with MINI Cooper, taking inspiration from its 2024 MINI Aceman model. The theme of the collaboration is “Urban Outdoor Traveler”, where a single garment can seamlessly transition between the city and nature, embodying MINI’s new design philosophy of “Simplicity, Purity”. The result is a collection that embodies urban fashion while meeting the demands of outdoor exploration and incorporating the design concepts of YAMA GUEST and the MINI Aceman. The apparel features wear-resistant, water-repellent and breathable materials, as well as adjustable details like the hood, front panel, and waistband for added functionality.MINI x Kinyan Lam (Kinyan Lam)For its collaboration with MINI Cooper, Kinyan Lam sought to capture the spirit of “Possibility”, “Adventurous”, and “Fashion” embodied by MINI drivers. To express their unique personalities, they want to customise their cars with different patterns. Lam took inspiration from a vintage MINI campaign featuring Mary Quant’s striped seat upholstery design, applying the iconic pattern, the classic stripe, as the central design motif for the collection. To achieve this design element, Lam incorporated his signature natural dyes with plants from India and indigo from Guizhou and employed a tie-dye technique to create the stripe patterns.FASHIONALLY COLLECTIONSFASHIONALLY.COM works to promote Hong Kong fashion and designers.

HONG KONG, Sept 11, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - HighTide Therapeutics, Inc. (2511.HK), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company specializing in the development of multifunctional multi-targeted therapies for chronic liver and metabolic diseases, presents at the 60th European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) Annual Meeting, taking place from September 10-13, 2024 in Madrid, Spain. The presentations include post-hoc analyses of two Phase 2 clinical studies of berberine ursodeoxycholate (HTD1801), a gut-liver anti-inflammatory metabolic modulator, in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).“These data provide additional insight on the potential benefits of HTD1801, a novel, multifunctional therapy being developed for the treatment of patients with T2DM. The two ongoing Phase 3 studies (NCT06350890, NCT06415773), fully enrolled in 2Q 2024, evaluate the efficacy and safety of HTD1801 in T2DM patients (as monotherapy or in combination with metformin). We look forward to the results of these Phase 3 studies which we expect to announce in 2025,” said Dr. Leigh MacConell, Chief Development Officer of HighTide.“Efficacy of Berberine Ursodeoxycholate (HTD1801) in Chinese and Western Patients with T2DM”(Presentation 711, Oral Presentation, September 11, 12:45 PM CEST)About the Abstract: T2DM and MASH are highly interrelated, the presence of each increasing risk of outcomes. Patients with both T2DM and MASH are at higher risk of histologic progression in MASH, cardiovascular outcomes, hepatic outcomes, and all-cause mortality. The purpose of this analysis was to compare the effects of HTD1801 in Chinese and Western patients with T2DM with or without MASH. These data demonstrate that while the two populations are ethnically distinct with related but different diseases, treatment with HTD1801 was associated with improvements in key measures of glycemic, cardiometabolic, and hepatic benefit in both populations. HTD1801 offers holistic benefits that are observed in both Chinese and Western patients, irrespective of underlying disease, that address core aspects of both T2DM and MASH.“Berberine Ursodeoxycholate (HTD1801) Provides a Unique Therapeutic Approach for Patients with Metabolic Diseases and Severe Insulin Resistance”(Presentation 708, Oral Presentation, September 11, 12:45 PM CEST)About the Abstract: Insulin resistance is a significant risk factor for T2DM, obesity and MASH. HTD1801 enhances the utilization of glucose and fats through activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), thereby improving insulin sensitivity. As HTD1801 is under development as a treatment for patients with T2DM, as well as MASH, we analyzed the effects of HTD1801 response based on degree of insulin resistance. These data demonstrate that HTD1801 can alleviate the metabolic inhibitory effects caused by hyperinsulinemia, leading to even greater hepatic and metabolic benefits in patients with more severe insulin resistance, offering a unique therapeutic approach for individuals with T2DM and/or MASH.About HighTide TherapeuticsHighTide Therapeutics, Inc. (2511.HK) is a globally integrated biopharmaceutical company focusing on the discovery and development of first-in-class multifunctional multi-targeted therapies with chronic liver and metabolic diseases with significant unmet medical needs. The company is developing multiple clinical assets, including therapy for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), type 2 diabetes (T2DM), severe hypertriglyceridemia (SHTG), primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). Berberine ursodeoxycholate (HTD1801), the company’s lead drug candidate, received Fast Track designation from the U.S. FDA for both NASH and PSC, as well as Orphan Drug designation for PSC. In China, HTD1801 has been included in the National Major New Drug Innovation Program under the 13th Five-Year Plan for Major Technology Project.For more information, please visit www.hightidetx.comContact: pr@hightidetx.com Copyright 2024 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

SINGAPORE, Sept 11, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Fast Debt Recovery Specialist, Singapore's premier debt collection agency, has achieved a significant milestone by becoming one of the first to receive the newly implemented debt collection licence by the Singapore government. This certification underscores the agency's unwavering commitment to lawful and effective debt collection practices. In line with their business philosophy, "No one deserves to be a victim of broken promises," this licence further solidifies their dedication to ethical and transparent operations.Founded in 2017, Fast Debt Recovery Specialist has rapidly grown to become the preferred collection partner for businesses and individuals seeking assistance with local debt collection. The agency distinguishes itself by blending personalised field visits with cutting-edge technology and a robust benchmarking system, ensuring transparency and accuracy in all operations. Their compliance rate exceeds 100%, and they maintain an impressive average debt collection rate of 72%.In 2024, all debt collection agencies in Singapore are mandated to operate only with a valid debt collection licence awarded by the Singapore Police Force. Fast Debt Recovery Specialist is among the first agencies to receive this prestigious licence, which is reserved for agencies recognised for their dedication to lawful and effective debt collection practices. This endorsement is vital as it establishes Fast Debt Recovery Specialist as a legally compliant and trustworthy agency. It also reassures their clients, both locally and globally, of the integrity of their practices and their team in delivering collection services within Singapore.The debt collection industry often faces unfavourable perceptions, even for legitimately credible agencies like Fast Debt Recovery Specialist, due to stigma and unethical practices that have surfaced in the news. By obtaining this licence, Fast Debt Recovery Specialist further elevates its credibility, assuring clients of their ethical practices."Receiving this licence is a testament to our dedication to compliant and transparent debt collection," said Ms. Lyn, Founder of Fast Debt Recovery Specialist. "We are committed to setting the highest standards in the industry."Fast Debt Recovery Specialist offers a comprehensive range of debt collection services, combining personalised field visits with advanced technology.

The debt collection firm proposed an initial discounted first settlement of $1,888, which was promptly paid. During this meeting, the agency was unaware that the debtor had also reached out to an authority figure in an attempt to avoid further payment.Shortly after, the client received a letter from this authority figure, a situation that could have been intimidating. However, with Fast Debt Recovery Specialist's expert advice and their experience in dealing with authorities, the client confidently navigated the incident. By leveraging on the agency's meticulous skip tracing, investigation, and strategic guidance, the authorities ruled that the debtor must pay the remaining $1,712, leading to the full recovery of $3,600. This case highlights Fast Debt Recovery Specialist's role as a credible and legitimate partner, capable of navigating complex situations while ensuring their clients' reputation and rightful financial interests are fully protected.Fast Debt Recovery Specialist's expertise is further demonstrated through their handling of multiple debts involving the same company director across three separate cases."During the first visit, we discovered we were unable to contact the director as he had disappeared," Ms Lyn recounted. "However, through extensive skip-tracing, we located his guarantor, and, after some negotiation, the guarantor paid off the debt in cash."A few months later, Fast Debt Recovery Specialist encountered the same debtor again, as other stakeholders were also pursuing him for unpaid debts."Fortunately, due to the good relationship we had built with his guarantor, we managed to locate the debtor," Ms Lyn shared. "Through amicable discussions, the director and his shareholder agreed to meet his financial obligations and took out a bank loan to settle his debt."The total debt collected amounted to approximately $150,000.These cases highlight Fast Debt Recovery Specialist's tenacity and strategic approach in ensuring debts are fully recovered, even in complex scenarios."With our newly acquired licence and unwavering commitment to excellence, Fast Debt Recovery Specialist is ready to assist even more businesses around the world with all their Singapore debt collection needs," Ms. Lyn added.

BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA, Sept 10, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Sensori.Ai, the only company blending neuroscience with generative AI (GenAI) to transform product innovation, consumer engagement and experiences, today announced the launch of the latest book from CEO and founder Dr. A.K. Pradeep and experts at Sensori AI. "Neuro AI: How to Win the Minds of Consumers Using Neuroscience-Powered Gen AI" ("Neuro AI") is prescriptive for practitioners of innovation, messaging and marketing and explores how to gain a competitive advantage in the marketplace by transforming GenAI from ‘generic AI' to truly ‘generative AI.' Through the use of real world case studies and use cases, "NeuroAI" reveals practical applications for appealing to the nonconscious mind, where 95% of decisions are made. Published by Wiley and co-authored by Dr. Anirudh Acharya, Dr. Rajat Chakravarty and Ratnakar Dev, the book is now available via Amazon and all major booksellers.Since its founding in late 2022, Sensori.Ai has developed a number of solutions designed to embed neuroscience principles and breakthrough algorithms into GenAI to create unique consumer understanding, product innovation and sensory design platforms. The company pioneers the use of unique nonconscious data (data consumed by the decision making nonconscious mind of the consumer) to create its breakthroughs. For example, Sensori.Ai created the first neuroAI-based algorithm to aid in the creation of fragrance, flavor and music. To date, the company has helped develop over 20 new products, over 100 campaigns and packaging designs and repositioning for most of the recognized global brands in the CPG, FMCG, and retail spaces. "Neuro AI" provides a primer on the neuroscientific principles and research backing these solutions with a transparent look at how these algorithms are created and the rules they follow."Make no mistake: GenAI is revolutionizing every part of our lives today. Apple Intelligence is just the beginning of this revolution. ‘Neuro AI' shows how memory structures and translational neuroscience puts humanity back at the center of GenAI-based design," said Dr. Pradeep. "For instance, every product maker wants their consumer to desire their product. Algorithmically embedding the neuroscience of desire in GenAI creates exciting product designs and market messaging that speak deeply to the nonconscious mind of the consumer, which is the powerful, driving force behind purchasing decisions."95% of desires and decisions are rooted in the unconscious mind. By leveraging its architecture and selectively utilizing the data streams that feed it, GenAI algorithms can be trained to operate in vastly more efficient and creatively effective ways. This return to an anthropocentric GenAI rooted in neuroscience-hence the term neuroAI-is both the thesis of the book and the focus for Sensori.Ai. GenAI trained on key neuroscientific principles and using proprietary algorithms can quickly develop and refine product concepts, packaging, pricing, messaging and other key features to appeal to consumers in a deep, personal and brand-guided manner.Sensori.Ai's solutions focus on using neuroAI for four specific business needs: consumer understanding (including neurographic profiles, archetypes, price sensitivity, personality and proclivities); product and brand innovation (including product features, product patent and IP protection, product pricing, product promotion and product volumetrics prediction); sensorial innovation (including fragrance design, flavor design, music design and packaging visual design); and desire creation (including advertising, messaging, desire scoring, desire-based message redesign and desire-based PDP redesign). "NeuroAI" details all of the science and methods in these four areas, which are also contained in the Sensori.Ai platform and solution suite."AI is everywhere now, but there's precious little practical information about it that's available to people," said Priya Nair, Business Group President, Beauty & Wellbeing at Unilever. "NeuroAI" changes that. The big add is that the book also covers consumer neuroscience. It's a book that everyone who wants and needs to get a good grasp of this stunning technology, and how the mind works, should have.""Neuro AI" builds on Dr. Pradeep's decades-long experience in the field of consumer neuroscience, detailed in the titles "AI for Marketing and Product Innovation" (2019) and "The Buying Brain" (2010). Dr. Pradeep, a twice successful Silicon Valley entrepreneur, holds over 90 patents and previously founded NeuroFocus (acquired by Nielsen) to provide neurological testing for consumer research. He also founded BoardVantage (acquired by Nasdaq), to provide SaaS board governance software for boards of directors and executives.To learn more about Sensori.Ai and "Neuro AI: How to Win the Minds of Consumers Using Neuroscience-Powered Gen AI," please visit sensori.ai.

Annual ranking highlights top-performing stocks' roles in energy security and electrification, and a shift from growth to value investingToronto, Ontario--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - September 10, 2024) - Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) today announced its sixth annual TSX30®, a ranking of the top 30 performing companies based on dividend-adjusted share price performance over a three-year period. The 2024 list underscores how these companies are driving advancements in sectors such as energy, electrification, and critical minerals, while delivering strong investor returns and shaping Canada's economy.Topping the 2024 TSX30 is Hammond Power Solutions Inc. (TSX:HPS.A), a company that enables electrification through its broad range of dry-type transformers, power quality products, and related magnetics, with a dividend-adjusted share price that has increased 928% over the past three years. Collectively, TSX30 companies represent over $380 billion in market capitalization, having added an impressive $210 billion during that period — nearly a quarter of a trillion dollars in value creation — while achieving an average dividend-adjusted share price appreciation of 234%."This year's TSX30 reflects the leadership and innovation of Canadian companies as Canada transitions to a cleaner energy future," said Loui Anastasopoulos, CEO, Toronto Stock Exchange. "These top performers are shaping the future of Canada's economy and ensuring our strengths in energy and mining align with the emerging technology sector to keep Canada competitive on the global stage."Adrian Thomas, CEO, Hammond Power Solutions, added, "Being named the top company in the 2024 TSX30 underscores both our commitment to driving progress in the energy sector and our team's ability to adapt and thrive in dynamic markets. We are proud to play a role in the energy transition space and strive to meet the evolving needs of a changing world."Sector leadership: Interconnected industries driving growthThe 2024 ranking is dominated by three sectors - Oil & Gas, Industrial Products & Services, and Mining - accounting for 25 of the 30 companies on the list. This strong representation reflects the interconnected nature of these industries and their continued contributions to Canada's economic prosperity, particularly as Canada navigates energy security in the current environment and the transition to cleaner sources of energy.Energy: Balancing security and innovationEnergy companies feature prominently on the 2024 TSX30, representing over half of the issuers. Amid global geopolitical tensions, these companies play an important role in ensuring a reliable energy supply. Athabasca Oil Corp. (TSX: ATH), for example, is a notable contributor to current energy needs while reducing the carbon intensity of its operations through transformational technologies.Industrials and mining: Supporting the energy transitionThe Industrial Products & Services sector, which includes companies like Hammond Power Solutions, can provide support and infrastructure for energy transition and electrification projects. The Mining sector is also growing, driven by demand for critical minerals needed for electric vehicles (EVs), batteries, and low-carbon and renewable energy. Half of this year's TSX30 mining companies focus on base metals crucial for these technologies. Cameco Corporation (TSX: CCO), a uranium production company and a pure-play investment in the growing demand for nuclear energy, has seen renewed interest, underscoring the importance of critical minerals in the shift to a low-carbon economy.Technology: Catalyst for navigating energy transitionTechnology companies are a driving force behind the growth across energy and related industrial sectors. Celestica Inc. (TSX: CLS), a company that offers solutions for grid stability and EV infrastructure, ranked second in the 2024 TSX30. Celestica's 706% dividend-adjusted share price increase emphasizes the importance of technology in helping navigate the transition to a lower-carbon future.Investor trends: A shift towards value investingThe 2024 TSX30 indicates a changing investor focus from growth investing to value investing, with a preference for companies with positive cash flow and a history of consistent dividends. Nearly two-thirds (63%) of the 30 companies paid dividends, averaging a 2.8% yield. This is significantly higher compared to the eight dividend-paying companies on the 2021 TSX30, which had an average yield a full percentage point lower. This trend reflects the appeal of stable, cash-generating companies in a volatile market.Other highlights from the 2024 ranking include:- Graduations from TSX Venture Exchange (TSXV) to TSX: Nine of this year's TSX30 companies graduated from TSXV, showcasing how this unique two-tiered ecosystem can nurture emerging businesses in growing their market capitalization and investor exposure.- Representation on leading indices: 17 of the companies are included on either the S&P/TSX Composite Index* or S&P/TSX 60 Index*, enhancing their visibility among investors globally.- Consistent performers: 14 of the 2024 TSX30 companies have appeared in previous TSX30 rankings (since 2019), with their collective dividend-adjusted share prices up 210% and market capitalization rising 147% during that time.For detailed results and further information about the ranking methodology, visit www.tsx.com/tsx30.The 2024 TSX30 ranking:RankingCompany NameTickerThree-year dividend-adjusted share price performance1Hammond Power Solutions Inc.HPS.A928%2Celestica Inc.CLS706%3Athabasca Oil CorporationATH429%4CES Energy Solutions Corp.CEU335%5TerraVest Industries Inc.TVK289%6NuVista Energy Ltd.NVA257%7Bird Construction Inc.BDT245%8MEG Energy Corp.MEG226%9Secure Energy Services Inc.SES216%10International Petroleum CorporationIPCO215%11China Gold International Resources Corp.

The Government will continue to support SMEs through various measures, including the SME Export Marketing Fund and ‘E-commerce Easy’, so as to encourage SMEs to upgrade and restructure their operations and develop e-commerce businesses, thereby promoting the development of new quality productive forces.”Stephen Liang, Assistant Executive Director of the HKTDC, said: “The inaugural Hong Kong Shopping Festival has concluded after a successful one-month run, providing local SMEs with a practical platform to master the art of e-commerce.  The event has also significantly enhanced SMEs’ brand awareness, building a solid foundation for their future development in the mainland e-commerce market. Following the event, many SMEs have expressed interest in participating in future Hong Kong Shopping Festivals, demonstrating their strong interest in the e-commerce sector and willingness to tap into the enormous potential of the mainland market. This positive response has given us the impetus to organise the event again next year.”Throughout August, the HKTDC, led by Paul Chan, Financial Secretary of the HKSAR Government, collaborated with celebrities and influencers to promote the Hong Kong Shopping Festival through various strategically planned digital marketing channels, including Xiaohongshu, Douyin, Taobao, JD and others, boosting visits to the official website and, in turn, to the SMEs’ own online stores.Understanding live-streaming and other techniques in mainland marketDuring the festival, several SMEs kickstarted live-streaming e-commerce in the mainland market, including Markwill Solutions Limited, the exclusive distributor of Gold Energy Snail Synergy, a Korean skincare and cosmetic brand, in Hong Kong. The company applied to run promotions on JD as the starting point. “The procedures were slightly complex, but luckily the HKTDC was on hand to help,” said Markwill Solutions Manager Man Leung.As a beginner in the mainland e-commerce field, Mr Leung watched numerous live-streaming sessions to explore the broadcast style of KOLs, learn the industry jargon and understand the discount strategies in the mainland market. He found out that while the popular term in Hong Kong is “buy 2 get 1 free”, the mainland market uses terms such as “expected paid price”, which was completely new to him. He also became aware that a key factor in driving sales of skincare and cosmetic products is the location of consumers.“The weather in the southern, middle and northern regions [of Mainland China] is different, as is the people’s need for cosmetics,” Mr Leung said. He also noticed that the KOLs who partnered with the brand were all from the northern regions, while customers were mainly from the northern and central regions. This made him realise the importance of the company conducting more research into how regional and seasonal factors could influence the shopping desires of customers.Cross International Limited runs First Edible Nest, which sells dried seafood. The company had already begun exploring e-commerce, hiring KOLs to conduct live-streaming sessions in the mainland market since the pandemic in 2020. However, owing to its limited budget, the company found it hard to invite renowned KOLs to work with them. “This time, the HKTDC was able to connect us with top-tier KOLs,” said Manager Eddy Lo. During the festival period, six live-streaming sessions on Tmall and Douyin were conducted. “Two of the sessions on Tmall were excellent, generating RMB300,000 in revenue. I was pleased with the sales figures.”  Kiu Fung Hong Limited, which sells food products such as potato chips, also achieved encouraging sales figures during the Hong Kong Shopping Festival. CEO Ellis Wong said the company had been selling its products on JD. When it came to the Hong Kong Shopping Festival in August, “comparing our average monthly orders from January to July, the August orders soared by 135 times,” he said. This demonstrates the effectiveness of the promotions run during the festival and Mr Wong said he hoped the event could be held regularly to continue the momentum. He encouraged other SMEs to participate in the next Hong Kong Shopping Festival to gain experience in how to develop the mainland market via e-commerce channels.Promotion boost online impressions, influencers showcase Hong KongThe Hong Kong Shopping Festival promoted online-offline integration with 10 million impressions on the Xiaohongshu platform. The Hong Kong Shopping Festival partnered with a diverse group of celebrities and influencers for engaging promotional activities, with the likes of Moses Chan, Grace Chan, Kenneth Ma and Hu Ke adding vibrancy to the event. In addition, more than 30 renowned mainland KOLs, including Li Jiaqi and Chen Jie Kiki, conducted over 30 live-streaming e-commerce sessions on three major platforms, endorsing over 60 brands by planting seeds to boost brand awareness. Influencers also showcased Hong Kong's cultural customs, distinctive foods and urban landscapes through offline city walks, drawing significant interest and generating discussions. Food and health supplement products garnered particular attention during the promotional campaign, reflecting the strong confidence of mainland consumers in the reputation and quality assurance of Hong Kong goods.The Hong Kong Shopping Festival aligns with a measure in the 2023 Policy Address to assist Hong Kong's SMEs in expanding into the Mainland China market via e-commerce channels with the slogan “Unveiling a New Lifestyle, Curated by Hong Kong". “Unveiling a New Lifestyle” refers to launching new products in the market and the aspiration to enrich people's lives through these products. “Curated by Hong Kong”, meanwhile, reflects the meticulously selected quality products from Hong Kong that are being made available to mainland consumers.The first Hong Kong Shopping Festival gathered more than 230 brands, showcasing 500 products and exclusive discounts in six major categories: apparel and accessories, personal care and cosmetics, home and living, classic food, smart gadgets and health supplements. The event not only helped Hong Kong’s SMEs leverage the customer base and traffic on mainland e-commerce platforms and increase brand awareness, but also helped them gain practical experience in how to expand into the huge mainland e-commerce market.Hong Kong Shopping Festival Website: https://bit.ly/4fR29clPhoto download: https://bit.ly/4dUZvBdThe Hong Kong Shopping Festival invited renowned Mainland China KOLs to host live-streaming e-commerce sessions, resulting in a very enthusiastic response.The inaugural Hong Kong Shopping Festival, organised by the HKTDC, achieved total impressions of more than 90 million on e-commerce discussion forums and official website.HKSAR Financial Secretary Paul Chan showed his support in a promotional video to promote the Hong Kong Shopping Festival. Media enquiriesYuan Tung Financial Relations:Agnes Yiu               Tel: (852) 3428 5690      Email: ayiu@yuantung.com.hkTiffany Leung           Tel: (852) 3428 2361      Email: tleung@yuantung.com.hkHKTDC’s Communications & Public Affairs Department:Katy Wong               Tel: (852) 2584 4524      Email: katy.ky.wong@hktdc.orgSunny Ng                Tel: (852) 2584 4357      Email: sunny.sl.ng@hktdc.orgHKTDC Media Room: http://mediaroom.hktdc.comAbout HKTDCThe Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) is a statutory body established in 1966 to promote, assist and develop Hong Kong’s trade.

Recently we have attracted four industry partners and unlocked up to A$60m of multi-year funding.We are very pleased to have opportunistically secured three bolt-on new projects covering 1,377km2 with clear scale potential and strategic value, now providing Kincora a continuous north-south strike extent of over 100km in the NJNB.This new ground is adjacent to and on the interpreted extensions of the Nyngan and Nevertire projects where maiden partner funded ground geophysical surveys are already ongoing with Fleet Space, and maiden drilling activities are shortly ramping up in partnership with and funded by AngloGold Ashanti at Nyngan.The Company and our existing partners are very excited to commence the first ever copper-gold exploration across potentially the largest volcano-intrusive complex of the Macquarie Arc at northern Nyngan, which offers new district scale potential.Kincora continues to build and advance our project pipeline, exploring further partnerships. In particular, securing the advanced and highly prospective Nevertire South ground in our view significantly enhances our Nevertire project and NJNB portfolio."New wholly owned projects Pegged as open ground, Kincora has been awarded new exploration licenses covering a total of 1,377km2 (100% ownership) including the Nyngan West, Nyngan South and Nevertire South projects - see Figures 1 to 3.The new licenses are opportunistic new bolt-on projects with clear scale and value path, doubling Kincora's land position in the NBJB. The NBJB is one of the two major volcanic belts of the Macquarie Arc, where regional magnetics has proven to be effective in mapping the key belts and major intrusive complexes.The new licenses provide Kincora a continuous north-south strike extent of over 100km in the interpreted shallow to moderate depth sections of the under cover extension of the Macquarie Arc. The new licenses also consolidate the extensions of intrusive complex targets included in the existing earn-in partnership with AngloGold Ashanti.Regional geophysics strongly indicates that Kincora's Nyngan license has the potential to host the largest volcano-intrusive complex of the Macquarie Arc, which is currently almost untested with drilling to commence within the month in partnership with AngloGold Ashanti.Kincora's portfolio and the wider NJNB offers new district-scale discovery potential with spatial and temporal settings, coupled with magnetics, gravity and new ANT surveys, supportive of large-scale targets analogous to porphyry deposits located in the southern section of the Macquarie Arc which host an existing >160Moz gold equivalent endowment (see Figure 2) 1.To help emphasis the true new district scale potential of the Company's NJNB portfolio, the total AngloGold Ashanti earn-in and Kincora wholly owned project portfolio now covers a strike length that is twice that of the rapidly emerging Vicuña porphyry district (see Figure 2).Within the Vicuña district, NGEx Resources Inc in 2009 held three early-stage exploration projects that, at the time, supported a market capitalisation of approximately C$40 million 2. These same projects are all still at a pre-development phase but have yielded four large-scale discoveries currently valued at over C$8.5 billion after the corporate transactions involving BHP and Lundin Mining last month 2, 3.Of particular note, the new Nevertire South project (962km2) is considered highly prospective and consolidates the ~8 x 12km Nevertire Magmatic Complex, the northern third held in Kincora's existing partnership with AngloGold Ashanti (see the insert in Figure 2).Prior explorer drilling at the southern section of the Nevertire Magmatic Complex (within the Nevertire South project) has returned anomalous copper-gold mineralisation, favourable fertility defined by green rock analysis, geochemical zonation and alteration suggestive of an outer porphyry system setting with age dates confirming a highly prospective Phase 4 Macquarie Arc intrusive complex (at approximately 220m depth down hole). This supports Nevertire South being the most advanced porphyry project within the NJNB district (see Figure 4), situated under potentially only 100 metres of cover and enhancing the value of the adjacent Nevertire project.Kincora has recently secured three prior exploration drill holes from the Nevertire South project with relogging planned as discussions with potential technical and funding partners progress.About the NJNB Project PortfolioThe Macquarie Arc is Australia's premier porphyry copper-gold province and the undercover extensions of the Arc are a globally significant exploration opportunity offering new district(s) scale discovery potential. The region has recently attracted five major earn-in/option and joint venture agreements supporting potentially over $300 million in exploration and development expenditure, including the recent option and joint venture agreements between Gold Fields and privately owned Gold & Copper Resources 4.The most recent notable example of a new emerging globally significant porphyry district is the Vicuña district in the central Andes in Argentina on the border of Chile, which is largely consolidated by Lundin group entities and BHP and situated at over 4000m altitude. Within this district NGEx Resources Inc in 2009 held three early stage exploration projects and at the time had a market capitalisation of approximately C$40 million. These same projects are all still at a pre-development phase but have yielded in four large-scale discoveries currently valued at over C$8.5 billion (see Figure 2).Regional geophysics strongly indicates that the largest sections of the Macquarie Arc still remain untested under post mineral cover within the NJNB. Kincora was the early entrant securing a district scale position in the interpreted shallow to moderate covered core sections of this region by pegging Nyngan and Nevertire (covering now 939 km2).Post securing AngloGold Ashanti as a partner for the Nyngan and Nevertire projects, Kincora has opportunistically secured (on a 100% ownership basis) the Nyngan West, Nyngan South and Nevertire South projects (covering 1,377 km2) which are viewed as hosting shallow to moderate covered sections of the targeted Macquarie Arc and the extensions of intrusive complex targets included in the existing earn-in partnership with AngloGold Ashanti.Kincora seeks to continue to systematically advance its project pipeline within the under cover extension of the Macquarie Arc and bring in funding and technical partners.About the AngloGold Ashanti PartnershipKincora has an initial multiple-phase Earn-in and Joint Venture Agreement with AngloGold Ashanti for the Nyngan and Nevertire licenses 5.AngloGold has the right to spend up to A$50 million to earn a 80% interest through:A$25 million of exploration expenditure to earn a 70% joint venture interest (Phase I) including a minimum A$2 million expenditure obligation, with Kincora the initial operator for a 10% management fee.Completion of a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) or funding of a further $25 million of expenditure to earn a 80% joint venture interest (Phase II).Under the agreement a wide range of untested large intrusive-related copper-gold targets will be drill tested seeking to confirm the potential for a new district of copper-gold porphyry system complexes.AngloGold Ashanti is the world's fourth largest gold miner by production with a successful track record for new Greenfield discovery success. Within the Macquarie Arc, AngloGold Ashanti has secured Earn-in and Joint Venture Agreements with both Kincora and Inflection Resources (Inflection, ticker "AUCU.CSE") covering greater than 8,000km2 in the NJNB.Subject to permitting, access and weather conditions Kincora and AngloGold Ashanti's first drilling program is anticipated to commence within the month. The program seeks to test new district-scale potential with up to eight large intrusive complex targets to be drill-tested for the first time in this initial first phase program. Approximately 6 to 8 drill holes for an estimated 4000-5000 metres are budgeted to be complete before the summer break 6.Figure 1: The new Nyngan West, Nyngan South and Nevertire South projects are adjacent to and the interpreted extensions of the Nyngan and Nevertire projects where maiden partner funded ground geophysical surveys are already on-going with Fleet Space and maiden drilling activities are shortly ramping up in partnership with and funded by the AngloGold Ashanti earn-in agreement for the Nyngan projectKincora continues to secure the best ground, do deals and drill, testing targets that offer Tier-1 copper-gold scale potentialRecently in the district there have been earn-in/option and joint venture agreements focused on porphyry exploration by AngloGold Ashanti (with Kincora and Inflection Resources), Gold Fields (with Gold & Copper), FMG (with Magmatic) and S2 Resources (with Legacy Minerals) supporting potentially over $300 million in exploration expenditureTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/222613_aac1627684c97809_001full.jpgFigure 2: Kincora's portfolio in the Northern Junee-Narromine Belt (including in partnership AngloGold Ashanti and Kincora wholly owned ground) now covers a continuous strike of over 100km, twice that of the rapidly emerging Vicuña porphyry districtKincora and its partners are seeking to confirm new district scale potential of the under cover extensions of the Macquarie Arc, which in the out/sub-cropping sections of the Arc host multiple world-class mines and a metal endowment of over 160M oz gold equivalentTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/222613_aac1627684c97809_002full.jpgFigure 3: Kincora has recently secure three prior explorer drill holes for the Nevertire South project with relogging planned as discussions with potential technical and funding partners progressKincora has recently obtained from the Cadia mine site diamond core farm three prior Newcrest drill holes, one of which confirms a highly prospective Phase 4 Macquarie Arc intrusive complex.

These surveys commenced in early August, are ongoing and progressing well.The initial ANT survey is planned to cover an area of approximately 35 km2 across the northern Nyngan license area with a proposed infill area of approximately 9 km2. Similar to other Fleet Space surveys in the district, the ANT velocity model is anticipated to image down to 1900m depth with the ground gravity surveys to provide the first cover-corrected gravity dataset in the area.The rapid turnaround from completion of the surveys to interpretation of results is enabled by the real-time ANT data acquisition capabilities of Fleet Space's end-to-end mineral exploration solution, ExoSphere. Utilising Fleet Space's proprietary satellite constellation, ExoSphere's smart seismic sensors (Geodes) transmit high-quality 3D ANT data from the project to the satellites which is then processed into actionable insights in real-time.

SEOUL, S.KOREA, Sept 9, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - The Asia Video Industry Association (AVIA), in partnership with the Korean Creative Content Agency (KOCCA), held Korea in View @BCWW on 29 August to much success, hosting over 300 delegates at COEX, as part of the 3-day global broadcasting content convention.The conference opened with a special welcome address by Eun Young Kang, Director of the Broadcast & Advertisement Policy Division, Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, before going deep into insights on the next chapter of the Korean content boom and how the industry could emerge from this “correction period”.For Marianne Lee, Chief of Content Acquisition and Development, Viu, the correction period was driven by the increase in production costs which had jumped four-fold in the last decade, and it was crucial for the industry to work collectively to optimize monetization and keep pace with costs in order to recover as quickly as possible.Hyun Park, CEO, Alquimista Media, was confident that if Korea and the broader Asia region produced great content, it could fill a void in the streaming world that was not being supplied by the US due the events that had occurred over the last years, including the pandemic and the Hollywood strikes.“Streaming has democratized content in a significant way, and viewers are voting for Asian content, with 14b hours of Asian content consumed globally in 2023,” said Vivek Couto, Managing and Executive Director, Media Partners Asia. Asian titles also drove 80% of premium video engagement and acquisition in APAC, with Korean content particularly significant in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, driving over 30% of viewership and contributing up to 30% in viewer acquisition.Couto also added that Korea was just in the “second innings” in the streaming industry, with the pace of change far more significant in the advertising space. And in a market like Korea, with most consumers having 2 – 3 subscriptions per household, there was an opportunity to replicate the pay TV bundle and grow the pie through that.Discussing the resilience of linear TV, Ana Bautista, Head of Strategy – Asia, BBC Studios, also said that establishing connections, relationships and deeper partnerships to understand each other’s needs and where the market was headed was key, particularly in Asia and Korea. While Changhoon Lee, Head of Media & Content Business Unit, SK Broadband, opined that the lack of personalization was a key issue the industry was facing from the IPTV perspective, but this offered an opportunity to transform into an AI media platform which would make it more competitive against the streaming giants.The significant growth of streaming has not, however, seen a corresponding increase in advertising revenue.  “Measurement is the underpinning currency and determines where the dollars will go, “said Chris Mottershead, Commercial Director - JAPAC, Publica. But with various constituents having differing objectives and levels of data all held within their own walled gardens, it remained a problem for the industry. On a more optimistic note, Mottershead added “We are starting to see a closing of the loop,” with a unifying of data across the viewing journey, from linear TV to IP and streaming.Korea in View is proudly sponsored by Lead Sponsor Cultural and Creative Industries Development Agency; Gold Sponsors Publica and TV5Monde; Silver Sponsor Invidi and Official Partner Korean Creative Content Agency (KOCCA).Visit the media gallery for photos from the event.About the Asia Video Industry AssociationThe Asia Video Industry Association (AVIA) is the trade association for the video industry and ecosystem in Asia Pacific.

MALANG, E. JAVA, Indonesia, Sept 9, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - An expert from the Faculty of Agriculture of Brawijaya University, Prof Arifin, has developed hybrid corn seeds for animal feed that have a higher yield and faster harvest cycle.Prof. Arifin, an agriculture specialist at Brawijaya University, has developed hybrid field corn seeds called 'Jagung Brawijaya Nusa.' (ANTARA/HO-Public relations, Brawijaya University)"If the average corn productivity is only 9 tons per hectare, using Brawijaya Nusa corn seeds could lead to a productivity increase of over 30 percent," Arifin explained to the media on Friday. Two types of hybrid seeds, namely Nusa 1 and Nusa 3, have been developed as part of the innovation. Both have higher productivity compared to regular corn seeds."Brawijaya Nusa corn seeds can produce up to 12.9 tons (of corn) per hectare and 13.7 tons per hectare compared to corn seeds in general, which are only 9 tons per hectare," he said. Initially, five types of seeds were proposed, but only two passed the release test by the Ministry of Agriculture. The seeds were found suitable for dry land areas, such as in NTT, particularly Sumba and Timor."NTT has the potential for growing corn, but its current productivity is significantly low. To meet the national average of 5.8 to 5.9 tons per hectare in the next few years, productivity is needed as it currently stands at only 2.3 tons per hectare.," he pointed out. Therefore, the innovative technology from the Maize Research Center (MRC) is expected to boost the national production of corn for animal feed.The development of hybrid seeds commenced in 2022 in NTT. Following this, Arifin and his team implemented the technology for seed production and cultivation among the local farmers. This year, the farmers started to see added value from the field corn seeds.Arifin emphasized the importance of partnering with the private sector to ensure the successful management of business operations involving seeds, varieties, and technology developed by the university. He highlighted the need to engage farmers in this collaboration for effective management.He added that the corn developed in NTT is a sweet and glutinous type of field corn. "We refer to it as field corn because 70 percent of it is used for cattle feed, but that doesn't mean it's unsuitable for human consumption. Similar to people in Africa, Indonesians rely on corn as a staple food, particularly in Madura and the eastern regions of the country," he explained.For more information, please click: https://ub.ac.idr  Brawijaya University: https://prasetya.ub.ac.id Editor: A Malik Ibrahim, Copyright (c) ANTARA 2024 Copyright 2024 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
