JAKARTA, Sep 3, 2022 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - The Digital Economy Ministers Meeting (DEMM) was held in Nusa Dua, Bali, Thursday (September 1, 2022).

Communication and Information Minister Johnny G. Plate opened the 2022 G20 Digital Economy Ministers' Meeting in Nusa Dua, Bali province, on Thursday (September 1, 2022). (ANTARA PHOTO/Hafidz Mubarak A/foc/uyu)The DEWG itself discussed three priority issues of the digital economy at the G20 Indonesia Presidency, including digital connectivity, digital skills and literacy, and cross-country data flow.The Minister of Communication and Informatics, Johnny G. Plate, said the DEMM has produced a document called "G20 Digital Economy Minister Meetings 2022; Chair Summary".The document summarizes agreements between the ministers for the digital economy on the three priority issues of the DEWG. "The document shows that for all substantive content, the Indonesian Presidency (G20) has reached consensus from all DEWG members in accordance with DEWG priority issues," Plate said at a press conference, Thursday afternoon. It also summarizes all ideas and dynamics that developed during the series of G20 DEWG meetings presented by representatives of G20 member countries over the past six months. The formulation of concrete steps in the document will be presented as input for President Joko Widodo in leading the G20 Summit which will be held in November.On the first priority issue regarding connectivity and post-COVID-19 recovery, Plate said the meeting agreed on the need for a people center in an effort to strengthen digital connectivity. The meeting, he said, also agreed on the importance of digital security as the key to business sustainability. "The meeting also welcomed various initiatives of the G20 Indonesia Presidency, such as the G20 Digital Innovation Network (DIN), G20 Digital Transformation Expo (DTE), and the smart village and island initiative together with ITU," he said. On the issue of digital skills and digital literacy which is the second priority issue, the DEMM meeting succeeded in compiling the "G20 toolkit for measuring digital skills and digital literacy". The document is useful for standardizing the measurement of literacy indicators and digital skills for more objective public policy making and encouraging international cooperation in overcoming gaps between countries, responding to the challenges of a digital future. "The presidency has also succeeded in compiling a compilation of reports on policies and recommendations to increase meaningful participation of vulnerable groups in the digital economy, as well as a summary document of practices and policies on digital skills and advanced digital literacy," he said. On the issue of free data flow with trust and cross-border data flow, Johnny said the DEWG forum has recognized the efforts of the Indonesian Presidency to initiate discussions on the principles of justice, transparency and legitimacy proposed by Indonesia. "This is a new principle base in cross-border data governance. We all know that data contains at least two important things. The first is that the data has a high economic value, and the second is that the data is related to geopolitics and geostrategy as well as the sovereignty of each nation and state," he explained. The DEMM meeting was attended by digital ministers from the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Singapore, Cambodia, South Africa, Japan, India, Saudi Arabia, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands. Meanwhile, Australia, Germany and Spain were represented by ministerial representatives.

VC Holdings Announces 2022 Interim Results

HONG KONG, Aug 31, 2022 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - Value Convergence Holdings Limited ("VC Holdings", together with its subsidiaries, the "Group"; Stock Code: 0821.HK), a well-established and one-stop financial services institution in Hong Kong, is pleased to announce its unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2022 ( the "Reporting Period"). The Group tirelessly pursued opportunities to diversify its business during the Reporting Period, and expanded its digital asset business with good progress. During the Reporting Period, the recurrent outbreaks of COVID-19, coupled with persistently high inflation and conflict between Russia and Ukraine, posed unprecedented challenges to the global economy, intensifying uncertainty in the global and Hong Kong financial markets. The Group's consolidated revenue from continuing operations decreased by 6.0% year-on-year to approximately HK$35.7 million. Due to the increase in net realised and unrealised loss in financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, and the impairment loss on accounts receivable and other receivables, the consolidated loss for the period attributable to shareholders amounted to approximately HK$61.8 million (1H2021: profit for the period attributable to shareholders of HK$101.1 million). Basic loss per share from continuing and discontinued operations was HK2.97 cents (1H2021: Basic earnings per share from continuing and discontinued operations of HK5.93 cents). Mr. Peter Fu, Chairman and Executive Director of Value Convergence Holdings Limited, "VC Holdings has always been dedicated to offering premier financial services and products that fulfill various investment and wealth management needs of clients in the Great China region. During the first half of 2022, amid the lingering impact of Coronavirus Disease 2019, the global economy continued to struggle with persistent downside risks including escalating geopolitical tensions, growing financial instability and surging inflation, all of which hindered economic growth. The Group's revenue declined due primarily to a reduction in brokerage commission income that was broadly in line with the deterioration of the economic environment and the contraction in transaction volumes in the market overall."Business OverviewFinancial services businessThe financial services business remained the Group's major revenue stream during the Reporting Period and contributed approximately 98% of the Group's total revenue. The business segment recorded a 7% decrease in revenue amid an overall decline in the volume of economic transactions. During the Reporting Period, the Group continued to provide local and overseas securities dealing, derivatives and other structured products trading, placement and underwriting, margin financing through VC Brokerage Limited and VC Futures Limited, and money lending through VC Finance Limited. Besides, the Group offered corporate finance advisory services, including mergers and acquisitions advisory and company secretarial services, through VC Capital Limited ("VC Capital") and VC Corporate Services Limited. During the Reporting Period, VC Capital was appointed as a financial adviser to a number of Hong Kong-listed companies engaged in corporate exercises.Proprietary trading businessThe pronounced slowdown in the global capital market, mainly led by high inflation and interest rate hikes amid the double-whammy of the renewed threat of COVID-19 variants and the Russo-Ukrainian war, resulted in substantial volatility in the local stock market. Aligned with the overall market situation, the Group held equity securities listed in Hong Kong worth approximately HK$414.9 million as financial assets held for trading, marking a 2.0% decrease in the market value as compared with 31 December 2021. Despite the challenges, the Group continued to focus on the fundamentals of its investment targets and will continue actively to pursue long-term capital gains.Sales and marketing of digital assetsTo further expand the newly developed business, VC Holdings continued to push forward expansion in various respects to actively enter the internet-native Generation Z market. The Group has recruited a seasoned team of sales and marketing talents to broaden its sales channels with a view to expediting business development. In addition, the Group has formed strategic cooperation agreements with several leading corporations, such as E-Home Entertainment, to commence in-depth cooperation in the internet industry and jointly carry out integrated market development in various areas, including the Chinese console games market, the expansion of domestic games into overseas markets, and digital marketing. During the Reporting Period, the Group deepened its collaboration with Tencent and became one of the few distributors of Tencent's Q Coins covering a considerable number of provinces in China. Meanwhile, the Group commenced collaboration with the distributor of Microsoft products in Hong Kong in connection with sales of Xbox-related virtual assets. The Group has also begun a collaboration with Xunlei Limited (NASDAQ: XNET) to sell non-fungible tokens. During the Reporting Period, the Group recorded a gross merchandise value of approximately HK$120.0 million, represented by the gross sum of digital assets sold to its customers. OutlookThe uncertain macroeconomic outlook is expected to continuously affect financial stability, resulting in a more volatile stock market. On a positive note, the gradual easing of social distancing measures and a reduction in cross-border transportation disruptions, alongside the stabilization of the local pandemic situation in Hong Kong, will help boost economic activities. The Group remains cautiously optimistic about the outlook for its placing and underwriting business, given that fundraising activities among Hong Kong-listed companies is expected to resume gradually. It seeks to expand the scale of its financial services business and continue to identify suitable acquisitions and investment targets in the market as opportunities arise.The Group intends to accelerate the development of digital asset business through digital asset marketing, intellectual property (IP) collaboration and marketing cooperation. To further strengthen its presence and drive synergies between the internet business offered by digital assets and other business segments, more resources have been allocated to further develop the sale and marketing of digital assets to broaden sales channels. The Group will continue to explore and liaise with potential business partners on sales of digital assets and NFTs.Mr. Fu concluded, "Given the huge potential of the digital asset market, we will keep exploring new business opportunities in the mainland China digital asset market, capitalizing on our strategic partnerships and in-depth business collaborations with our allies, namely E-Home Entertainment and Shenzhen Yiyun Information. More resources will be dedicated to mapping out a blueprint for the digital asset segment accordingly. We believe, that the new business will become a new key driver of the Group in the years to come, improving profitability and generating maximum value for all stakeholders."About VC Holdings Limited Value Convergence Holdings Limited (Stock code: 0821.HK) was listed on the GEM board of Hong Kong Stock Exchange in 2001, and completed transfer of listing to the Main Board in 2008. Being a well-established financial services group committed to delivering premier financial services and products in the Great China region, the Group's services include (i) provision of financial services comprising securities and options brokering and dealing, financing services, corporate finance and other advisory services, asset management and insurance brokerage; (ii) proprietary trading; and (iii) sale and marketing of digital assets.

Qenta Acquires Digital Currency Company Noble Money to Advance Financial Inclusion in Emerging Markets

The acquisition allows Qenta to increase its global footprint and leverage Noble’s existing partnerships. Noble leads national deliberations for Qenta’s G-Coin® digital gold token to be recognized as an official national currency in Palau. Houston, TX, August 17, 2022 – (SEAPRWire) – Qenta, Inc., (“Qenta”) a financial infrastructure platform with cutting-edge technology and a proprietary enterprise-grade blockchain, the Qenta Operating System, today announced the acquisition of Noble Money, Inc., (“Noble”).  With employees and advisors including world renowned cryptographers, former senior government officials, and founders of large multinational organizations, Noble intends to scale the use of digital currencies starting with governmental adoption. The company is backed by leading investors that include 8 VC, Tribe Capital, Social Capital, Green Sands Equity and more, who now all join Qenta’s investor group. “The synergies between our businesses are clear, and we are excited to bring Noble onto the Qenta platform. Combining our regulatory footprint and technology with Noble’s will amplify our efforts around financial inclusion and access tremendously,” said Brent De Jong, CEO of Qenta. The combined companies are already making a strong regional push as the country of Palau considers legislation that would adopt a gold backed digital currency, to be administered by Noble, as an official national currency alongside the US Dollar. Qenta’s digital gold token, G-CoinⓇ launched in the U.S. in 2019 and currently available in 76 countries through digital asset exchanges, is purported as the appropriate solution for this. The G-Coin is a digital certificate of ownership to one gram of ethically sourced physical gold that is stored in insured and regularly audited vaults. Qenta has developed digital wallet functionality to enable users to save gold as well as to send fractions of gold between peers or across borders, and in time spend in gold through debit cards and point of sale systems. “The fastest way to achieve our vision of making sound money accessible to every human is to partner alongside an established player with large payment and regulatory infrastructure, and substantial private-public experience,” said Spencer Kaye, CEO of Noble Money. The two companies’ CEOs bring a wide breath and depth of experience, both having founded their own investment firms, De Jong Capital and Transform Capital. De Jong Capital is invested across commodity supply chains and payments industries, having taken two companies public in the last 12 months. Transform Capital is invested in companies like SpaceX and Carta and has provided seed capital for several well-known companies in the FinTech arena. Their combined experience will allow for a smooth business combination and a successful outcome for all Qenta and legacy Noble stakeholders. About Qenta Qenta is a financial technology platform offering asset tokenization, multi token wallets and alternative banking, cashless payments, and capital & risk management solutions, uniquely positioned to serve emerging markets.

Modern Companies Cannot Afford to Ignore the Digital Transformation

MANILA, Aug 5, 2022 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - Digital transformation is an absolute necessity today. Especially for small businesses, it has become indispensable. A few years ago, digital transformation was thought to give businesses a competitive edge. Now it's a fight for survival. We interviewed Dennis Crimen, ICT Head at Philippine Airasia, on how mobility services enabled by digital transformation are reshaping the commercial environment. Anywhere working models and on-demand decision-making have become possible thanks to mobility services. People no longer have to report to the office to do their tasks. They can work anywhere. Through technological outputs that streamline their operations and allow employees to access platforms that were once inaccessible to the public internet, modern technologies are impacting mobility in the post-Covid era. Employees now have the opportunity to connect and simultaneously adhere with government-mandated security requirements. Using the public internet to access assets comes with some concerns. User behaviour has a big impact on security. Regardless of how secure the systems are, a simple mistake like opening a phishing email can make the situation worse. Mr. Crimen advised users to be careful when accessing information to prevent the loss of sensitive company and personal data.Francisco "Kiko" Castillo, Senior Vice President and Chief Information Officer of Maynilad Water Services, Inc. discussed how to use modern data integration technologies to achieve business results in our conversation with him. He began by describing how integrating data analytics and technologies is different in terms of methodology from building transactional systems. According to him, you need to allow sufficient time for data cleansing, which typically takes up 60% of the project time. Applying the right methodology and conducting pilot testing are the next steps. A leader of IT will eventually have to learn how to deal with these aspects. Kiko believes that deciding what to accomplish is the most important component to consider when looking at data integration platforms. Other factors include the data sources in the various systems, the types of data sources, and the identities that are used consistently across all sources.On August 24-25, more than 100 digital transformation leaders will gather in the Philippines to discuss the key trends and challenges of a hybrid future. As part of its commitment to connecting transformational leaders, EDX is hosting the DX Leaders Strategy Forum Philippines 2022, a two-day hybrid event that will highlight partnerships between technology providers and end users to shape the digital future of Philippine businesses.

Blockchain-Based App Wins UN Secretary-General’s Innovation & Sustainability Award

NEW YORK, Jul 25, 2022 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - The UN Joint Staff Pension Fund (UNJSPF) partnered with the UN International Computing Center (UNICC) to launch a Digital Certificate of Entitlement (DCE) app to modernize the tracking and eligibility of UN retirees. This app allows retirees to use their smartphone, tablet, or another personal device to submit an electronic certificate of eligibility instead of a paper-based submission. The DCE uses cutting-edge biometric/facial recognition, blockchain, and global positioning technologies to track the eligibility of retirees.The DCE project was piloted in 2020 with retirees from the World Food Programme and the Food and Agricultural Organization. The DCE deployment was then fast-tracked in 2021 as a response to the worldwide disruption of postal services caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Now 20% of eligible retirees and beneficiaries have enrolled in the DCE and more than 10,000 retirees and beneficiaries have successfully issued their Certificate of Entitlement via the app.The DCE is environmentally friendly, secure, and delivers organizational efficiencies to the UNJSPF. For that reason, the United Nations has selected the DCE as the winner of the Secretary-General Award for innovation and sustainability."The United Nations has proven that blockchain technology can be used by governments to streamline enterprise-level processes," said Dino Cataldo Dell'Accio, CIO, UNJSPF. He continued to say, "The UN is a leader in using blockchain and other cutting-edge innovations to improve the lives of people around the world."After the successful launch of the blockchain-based DCE, Dell'Accio recognized the need for a roadmap and evaluation criteria for blockchain solutions. As a member of the non-profit Government Blockchain Association (GBA) (https://gbaglobal.org), he volunteers his time and experience to help develop standards in support of innovators and problem solvers around the globe.

AutoXing Launches Digital Mini Disinfection Robot

Beijing, CHINA, July 12, 2022 – (SEAPRWire) – AutoXing is proud to announce the launching of their new generation of Digital Mini Disinfection Robot. In the post-COVID era, the world has adapted to a new normal, with disinfection and public sanitation playing a vital role. Efficient methods are needed to prevent and curb the spreading of infectious viruses. Cutting off the air from spreading the virus is regarded as one of the most effective decontamination measures. The digital spray disinfection robot with intelligent and autonomous capabilities to sterilize the environment has gained increasing attention and development opportunities. AutoXing Robots enabled us to see how digital spray disinfection robots can be crucial in public sanitation. Having launched two models of Digital Disinfection Robot, the Standard Version, and the High-Volume Version, the AutoXing digital disinfection robot series is thrilled to welcome a new member – the new generation of Digital Mini Disinfection Robot. The digital mini robot can do unmanned remote deployment, creating maps remotely without on-site human assistance. As a smart robot, it can automatically stop spraying when it meets people, which is quite user-friendly. This mini robot is smaller in size and cuter in appearance with a lovely smiling face. With a 13L container, its capacity volume is the largest of the same kind in the market. The round chassis enables it to walk steadily and flexibly. The built-in high-frequency ultrasonic machine can instantly convert the storing disinfectant into droplets of 3-5μm, and spray into space in uniformed density. The mist is effective in killing broad-spectrum bacteria and eliminating COVID-19 and many other harmful pathogens with a sterilization rate of 99.99%. The recommended disinfectants are food-grade hypochlorous acid and chlorine dioxide, which are much safer, non-corrosive, and non-irritating. In AutoXing, R&D personnel accounts for more than 90%, and core technical persons come from leading autonomous driving head companies. They were the first group of applicants to be authorized with an autonomous driving license in China. In centimeter-level HD mapping, high precision positioning, intelligent navigation, and SLAM sensor algorithm fusion, the team has always been leading the industry and staying at the top. The founders of AutoXing are successful serial entrepreneurs who have obtained over a billion-dollar investment. The digital mini disinfection robot can greatly enhance work efficiency, complete a disinfection area of 3000 ㎡/15min, and standby 7*24. It offers user-friendly app operation and platform management. 360° all-round detection makes it easy to achieve zero-blind spot disinfection. This mini robot is lower in price compared to the standard version, but strong in working efficiency and broad in application scenarios, suitable for hospitals, subways, kindergartens, nursing homes, hotels, offices, schools, banks, and so on. AutoXing disinfection robot has already been applied in numerous cases, including restaurants, hotels, office buildings, and so on with high customer satisfaction. For the reasons why AutoXing robots can obtain wide market recognition, one of the answers must be the full-stack self-R&D technology. Based on L4 level autonomous driving technology, the AutoXing robot has superior performance in operation stability, positioning accuracy, and flexibility in navigation and obstacle avoidance. What’s worth mentioning is the cutting-edge technology of rapid remote unmanned deployment, a leading technology in the robotics industry. How does AutoXing accomplish that? Positioning loss is a common technical problem for most robotics companies. Limited by positioning loss and other technical bottlenecks, most robots are not fully autonomous that still need help from labor work. However, with the application of laser odometer, optical flow, and other technical methods, AutoXing has completely solved positioning loss and outperforms others in dealing with technical issues such as sunshine noise, which can guarantee the smooth implementation of remote mapping and deployment based on this hardcore technical strength. The visual sensors, LIDAR, and SLAM algorithm help scan the environment, accurately obtain image information, and do multi-sensor fusion and intelligent obstacle avoidance. Daily operations of the robot are supported by cloud platforms to achieve real-time monitoring, early diagnosis of abnormal operation, automatic recovery, OTA upgrade, and remote maintenance. AutoXing also has self-developed IoT modules that can work with robots to achieve more IoT functions, such as automatically taking an elevator, passing gate, and automatic door. The outstanding performance and capability of the AutoXing intelligent disinfection robot could not be achieved without the efforts of all AutoXing R&D staff. AutoXing provides all its products in full-stack self-R&D, including L4 autonomous driving technology of perception, decision-making, and movement algorithm; hardware of chassis and cabin; cloud platform of scheduling, monitoring, and operational big data statistics and mapping; IoT modules; and APPs. As an industry leader in AI algorithm software for intelligent robots, AutoXing is constantly innovating and offering a friendly experience to customers, aiming to use smart technology of automatic robot service to create better lives for society. A good product will stand the test of time. AutoXing Digital Mini Disinfection Robot is about to launch soon, let’s wait and see more amazing user experiences from the market.
