Don Agro International and Smart Polymorph Technologies pioneer latest pharmaceutical innovations for the agricultural sector

SINGAPORE, Sep 30, 2021 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - Don Agro International Limited (the "Company" or "Don Agro") and its subsidiaries (collectively the "Group"), one of the largest agricultural companies based in the Rostov region of Russia, is pleased to announce the launch of its joint pilot project with Smart Polymorph Technologies ("Smart Polymorph") to introduce the latest pharmaceutical innovations to optimise crop production for the agricultural sector. Headquartered in the high-tech Skolkovo Innovation Center in Moscow, Russia, Smart Polymorph specialises in developing new, improved and patentable forms of pharmaceutical substances.As part of this pilot program, both Don Agro and Smart Polymorph are working towards enhancing crop production yields and minimising costs through the use of well-known plant growth bio-stimulants that have been modified into new crystalline and amorphous forms via the latter's polymorphic modification technology. To support research efforts, the Group earmarked experimental plots totalling 50 hectares of three different crops, namely winter wheat, corn and sunflower, as a testbed for the application of the new growth bio-stimulator.According to Smart Polymorph, pharmaceutical drugs which they had developed prior to the latest venture displayed higher therapeutic effect as compared to existing market alternatives, even as the number of active substances used was reduced by three to five times. This is due to the technology's ability to modify the morphology and crystalline form of the respective substances, and manage the control of particle sizes and amount of impurities, thereby ensuring that the end product achieves the highest quality standards."Smart Polymorph harnesses a unique technology in polymorphic modification of organic substances that is suitable and can be applied to a wide variety of medicines and bioactive substances used in the agroindustrial complex," explains Mr Yakovlev Ruslan, Director of Science of Smart Polymorph Technologies. He added, "Leveraging on our proprietary technology, we have been able to modify substances that have proved to be more superior and efficient than other alternatives currently existing in the market. Backed by our successful track record to date, we are confident that the same technology can be applied to the agricultural sector to enhance the effectiveness of plant growth stimulants, pesticides and other related substances."On this latest initiative, Mr Marat Devlet-Kildeyev, Chief Executive Officer of Don Agro commented, "Over the years, we have continued to introduce modern farming techniques, adopt new technologies and implement industry best practices to set ourselves apart from our industry peers. This has included entering the market for organic wheat as well as adopting AI-powered autonomous driving technology to enhance our crop harvesting capabilities. Our latest joint pilot program is a step in the same direction as we apply new and innovative pharmaceutical technologies to our crop fields to achieve maximum crop yields at the lowest cost. Supported by our renowned partner in Smart Polymorph Technologies, we are confident that this initiative will reinforce our position as one of the leading innovators in the agricultural sector."Since April 2021, the Group has begun cultivating winter wheat using bio-stimulants supplied by Smart Polymorph, with experimental efforts for corn and sunflower crops next in the pipeline. Once the respective crops have been harvested, an analysis of yields and quality of the final product will be carried out by the Group to determine the growth bio-stimulant's effectiveness. The introduction of bio-stimulants does not incur additional costs to the Group as the processes and technology required for sowing seeds and growing crops remain unchanged.About Don Agro International LimitedDon Agro is one of the largest agricultural companies in the Rostov region in Russia principally engaged in the cultivation of agricultural crops and production of raw milk. The Group is also engaged in crop production in the Volgograd region in Russia. The Group has a total controlled land bank of 67,340 hectares, of which more than 54,420 hectares are arable land.

Revest Finance Announces the Financial NFT Smart Vault

Revest Finance is announcing the Financial NFT: a programmable Smart Vault for crypto assets. New York, NY / SEAPRWire / September 14, 2021 / – Revest Finance has announced the launch of the Financial NFT. The Revest Protocol uses a special form of the Non-Fungible Token to create a programmable vault capable of locking any ERC-20 token until a particular set of conditions are met. This seemingly simple utility is the basis for a large number of financial possibilities including time and incentive based vesting structures. In addition to locking tokens, the FNFT Smart Vault can be fractionalized, bought, and sold on NFT marketplaces, allowing for liquidity of locked assets. Launching September 24th, 2021, the FNFT is a new way of locking and releasing value that gives users complete control over their assets – no code required. Most have now heard of the NFT – the non-fungible token. NFTs shot to fame as the answer to digital scarcity, giving digital art and artists a means by which to attribute ownership. While many digital artists have received a huge boost, the jpeg market is merely one small use case of NFTs. FNFTs are where NFT technology meets the solid framework of the financial markets. From the humble home to international bond markets, Revest brings the NFT into the financial world. The reason for this is the FNFT is a – it is agnostic to what it locks. Want to securely lock one Wrapped ETH as an 18th birthday present for your daughter, using an oracle and digital signature to confirm her identity? FNFTs can do that. Want to make incentive structures to a marketing firm according to the value of the product they market? FNFTs can do that too. Want to create a multimillion dollar covered call option? You guessed it – FNFTs have that solved. Just as the art NFT has been a blank canvas for artists, FNFTs give financial innovators carte-blanche for creation. For too long the financial markets have held a monopoly on financial innovation. Revest is building tools to move the financial system to a secure and decentralized state. Users wrap their assets using an intuitive UI and decide what unlocking features they require. These features can stipulate time, value, or arbitrary criteria. Users can set multiple unlocks and allow for asset deposits as with a savings account. The time criteria can be extended; the value criteria can relate to another asset or combination of assets; the arbitrary criteria can refer to multiple parties or even to smart contracts, all giving the FNFT limitless capabilities when it comes to customization. The asset locked is not restricted either, allowing fungible cryptocurrency tokens, NFTs or even other FNFTs to be wrapped. A flagship claim of the FNFT is that ownership can be transferred without directly affecting the value of a contained asset, in comparison to when the raw asset is bought and sold, impacting the price. The Revest team see this initially being adopted by the innovation-hungry cryptocurrency start-ups, where problems such as token release schedules and treasury management have been particular pain points. With FNFTs, token release schedules may be managed by criteria of time or linked to token value to mitigate heavy sell pressure. Crucially though, locked tokens may be traded through the trading of the FNFT itself, allowing early investors in start-ups to maintain liquid positions without affecting the communities they invest with. This is just the start. When a new technology is born, there is a bloom of innovation in every direction. The first big hit for the NFT has been art, but now NFTs have grown beyond their artistic beginnings. The NFT has grown up. Meet the Revest Smart Vault, powered by the Financial NFT.

SMRT to distribute S’pore-made electric motorcycles

SINGAPORE - Electric motorcycle maker EuroSports Technologies has teamed up with SMRT-owned Strides Transportation to develop, market and supply smart electric motorbikes. In an announcement to the Singapore Exchange on Monday (April 19), EuroSports Technologies said the two local companies have signed a memorandum of understanding which will see Strides appointed as the sole distributor of commercial electric motorcycles in Singapore and the Asia-Pacific region. This range of two- and three-wheelers will be separate from EuroSports' Scorpio brand of premium electric motorbikes. They will be targeted for food delivery and logistics applications. EuroSports Technologies - part of listed sportscar distributor EuroSports Global - will be rolling out the new range of commercial motorbikes by the fourth quarter of this year - ahead of the Scorpio's 2022 production. Like the Scorpio, these motorcycles will be equipped with smart features such as over-the-air software updates, connectivity to the Internet of Things and in-house charging systems. But they will have lower performance, fewer premium features and a substantially lower price tag. Formed in 2016, Strides provides limousine and premium bus services in Singapore, and car leasing and limousine services in Myanmar. EuroSports chief executive Melvin Goh described the non-binding MOU as a "momentous milestone". He added: "As the creator of Scorpio Electric, the first Singapore home-grown high-performance smart electric motorcycle, we are proud to fly our flag high in the international scene with Strides. "The collaboration will broaden the scope of our reach to tap the unfulfilled potential of regional electric vehicle markets." SMRT Road Holdings president Tan Kian Heong said: "This collaboration is part of our plans to build businesses in the electric vehicle ecosystem towards a greener Singapore and South-east Asia region." The SMRT subsidiary has been exploring more sustainable transport modes. Three years ago, it announced that it would add Toyota hydrogen fuel cell cars to its fleet. Mr Tan said Strides will work closely with EuroSports "to make this partnership a fruitful venture". Global sales of electric vehicles are accelerating on the back of more stringent emission standards around the world. According to a study by business consultancy McKinsey in October 2020, the market for electric two and three-wheelers was valued at around US$97 billion (S$129 billion) - or 4 per cent of global auto sales. By 2022, this could reach US$150 billion, with the biggest growth expected in emerging markets.

As at end-2020, Eurosports Technologies had raised US$8.5 million in funds. It hopes to raise another US$15 million by end of this year.

First 300,000 smart water meters in S’pore to be installed by SP Services from 2022

SINGAPORE - SP Services will install Singapore's first 300,000 smart water meters from early next year as part of the national plan to digitalise the water system. At no cost to customers, these meters that use digital technologies to monitor water usage and leaks will be rolled out to homes, commercial and industrial buildings at seven locations, said national water agency PUB on Thursday (April 15). The locations are the new housing estates of Tampines North and Tengah, as well as Bukit Batok, Hougang, Jurong West, Tampines and Tuas. The first phase of PUB's smart water meter programme is set to be completed by 2023. The award of the estimated $123.7 million project to the subsidiary of government-owned SP Group follows an open tender exercise which attracted seven local and foreign tenderers. PUB added that SP Services was selected as it demonstrated a strong track record and the necessary technical resource capability to undertake this project, alongside its network solutions provider Itron's experience in deploying nearly 800,000 smart water meters overseas. SP Services will be responsible for the supply and installation of the smart meters and supporting infrastructure, as well as their operation and maintenance for 15 years. Households and businesses in the first phase of the programme will receive notification letters from PUB prior to installation. "In selecting these locations, PUB had considered a range of factors including property mix, efficiency of deployment and the need to replace older conventional water meters," it said. With the new meters, the agency can automatically access meter readings without the need for labour-intensive manual reads, which are currently conducted once every two months. Paired with a customer portal, users will be able to monitor leaks and high water usage in near real time. Pilot trials carried out in 800 households in Punggol and Yuhua in 2016 and 2018 found that about 10 per cent of them experienced leaks that often go unnoticed until they received a higher-than-usual water bill. With the smart meters, these households had savings of about 5 per cent due to early leak detection and the adoption of water-saving habits. More on this topic Related Story More smart meters, customised energy-saving tips and incentives for going green for consumers Related Story PUB to start installation of 300,000 smart water meters at 7 locations in 2021 PUB director of water supply (network) Ridzuan Ismail said: "With increasing water demand and challenges posed by climate change on our water resources, we are also constantly challenged to find more efficient ways to supply water and conserve water, in order to safeguard Singapore's water security. "Smart water meters that can provide near real-time water use information will help to change consumer behaviour, (and) can give a major push to our water conservation efforts." Following the first-phase roll out, PUB intends to review the results before implementing the programme for the rest of Singapore. Mr Stanley Huang, group chief executive officer of SP Group, said: "In deploying a smart water metering system for Singapore, SP Group is building on our track record in establishing and operating our nation's islandwide smart electricity metering system." As at March 31, SP Group has installed over 500,000 smart electricity meters nationwide and intends to complete installation for all 1.4 million households by 2024.

DHG LTD releases Mogu Smart Router (MSR) Version 2 in Japan

Tokyo, Japan / SEAPRWire / Mar 2, 2021 / DHG LTD (Daiko Holding Group), a global communications group operating from Tokyo, released the Mogu Smart Router (MSR) Version 2 in Japan on February 15, 2021. The MSR Version 2, optimized for Japanese internet service providers, marks the second generation of Mogu routers to reach consumer households in Asia. The Mogu launch in Japan is also the first release under the management of DHG LTD, who acquired the Singapore-based smart router company earlier this year. The acquisition of Mogu was a strategic next step for DHG to expand their footprint in Japan’s wireless internet service provider (WISP) sector. Prior to the acquisition, Mogu Technologies successfully launched the Mogu Smart Router Version 1 in mainland China, with plans to expand throughout Asia in 2020. After the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), Mogu shifted focus to the Japanese market, partnering with DHG for distribution based on the organization’s expertise in both logistics and internet services throughout Japan. As DHG looked to expand their service offerings in 2021, their existing relationship fast-tracked Mogu into the expanding DHG portfolio. In addition to the Mogu Smart Router, the acquisition included the two other business units of Mogu—the MOGX token and the mobile app to manage WiFi security settings remotely. The acquisition of Mogu and the release of Mogu Smart Router Version 2 strengthens DHG’s competitive advantage to provide internet services to Japanese customers, developing a more comprehensive solution including consumer smart routers for home wireless networks. DHG LTD. CEO Akio Ito commented, “The release of the Mogu Smart Router in Japan provides a major growth opportunity for DHG, supplying our clients with an expanded product offering. We look forward to extending a streamlined, one-provider solution to our customers in Japan over the coming year.” Media contact Company Name: Mogu Technologies Contact Person: Paul Kim Email: pr@mogutech.io Country: Singapore Website: www.mogutech.io SOURCE: Mogu Technologies The article is provided by a third-party content provider.

China Gas responds to China’s rural rejuvenation strategy by introducing unique Smart MicroGrid village gasification technology

HONG KONG, Feb 24, 2021 - (ACN Newswire) - On February 21, 2021, China issued 2021 No. 1 Central Document titled "Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Comprehensively Promoting Rural Revitalization and Accelerating Agricultural and Rural Modernization". It requested the strengthening of rural public infrastructure construction while placing the focus of public infrastructure construction on villages, extending to coverage of villages and households. It also stressed "the promotion of gas to villages and support for the construction of safe and reliable village gas tank stations and microgrid gas supply system". The gas tank stations and microgrid gas supply system mainly refer to the unique liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) Smart MicroGrid system developed by China Gas Holdings Limited ("China Gas"; stock code: 384). President Xi Jinping also emphasized that strengthening rural public infrastructure construction is key to the sustainable and healthy economic and social development of villages and is fundamental to the realization of rural rejuvenation as a whole. In response to China's rural rejuvenation strategy and rural construction policy as well as assist the country in implementing the "Fighting for the blue sky Campaign", China Gas has started to invest in and implement the village gasification strategy and promote the green transformation of production models, extending to the lifestyles and habits of citizens and industrial and commercial users early in 2016. The Group has built up considerable technologies and amassed extensive experience in market development and sound operation in related fields. Following eight years of research and execution, the Group has commenced the adoption of its unique and innovative township LPG Smart MicroGrid technology in Central and Southern China and coastal areas via light asset investment. China Gas has learned from mature technologies from foreign countries and introduced new technologies such as IoT and smart and cloud platforms to develop more advanced, cost-effective and safer LPG Smart MicroGrid integrated energy utilization platforms. The consumption pattern of the Smart MicroGrid is the same as piped natural gas, but the former boasts lower construction costs. Also, the Smart MicroGrid is more cost-effective and safer than liquefied natural gas (LNG) supply and bottled LPG gas, making it a revolutionary gas supply model suitable for large-scale promotion in villages across China.Smart MicroGrid is unique technology developed by China Gas that is aimed at creating a low-carbon livable environment, following the industrial "coal to gas" and village "replacement of coal with gas" projects. The Group is also able to invest in Smart MicroGrid technology for application in villages, townships and small communities across the country, in particular, Central and Southern China and coastal areas. These geographical locations currently represent a huge untapped market involving approximately 90 million families.The Smart MicroGrid technology was successfully applied in certain projects in the Qinghai and Hubei provinces in 2019. This has paved the way for the pursuit of "bottle to pipe" reform in rural areas, establish "beautiful villages" and improve the living standards of farming families, and have gained significant recognition from the government. Currently, it is widely used in other provinces, such as Yunnan and Zhejiang. Since China Gas mapped out its investment in the Smart MicroGrid business in June 2020, market development has proceeded smoothly, and provincial agreements have been signed in Qinghai, Hainan, Yunnan and Guangdong. China Gas has also signed strategic agreements with 15 provincial-level municipalities and 11 counties, serving over 25 million households. Furthermore, its accumulated residential user contracts amount to over 1 million households, with engineering design and construction work proceeding expeditiously. Considering the enormity of the township market, which is projected to connect 3 million urban users a year in the coming four to five years, China Gas will be able to connect to more than 15 million township users, generating over RMB 15 billion in profit. Based on a conservative estimate, its total revenue will grow at a CAGR of over 20%, which is much higher than the industry average. Hence, China Gas' valuation will still have significant room for growth. Copyright 2021 ACN Newswire. All rights reserved. www.acnnewswire.com
