The two flagship annual events bring together over 180 speakers and more than 420 start-ups, innovative projects and start-up support organisations, offering a strong line-up of programmes designed to advance the exchange and application of innovation and technology (I&T) and intellectual property (IP). The events further reinforce Hong Kong’s role as a super-connector and value-adder to strengthen regional and global collaboration.Sophia Chong, HKTDC Executive Director and David Wong, HKSAR Government Director of Intellectual Property, officiated the opening session this morning and delivered remarks.Sophia Chong said: “Fostering collaboration and partnerships – that is something we at the HKTDC care about deeply, to help those seeking to grow and thrive. At the BIP Asia 2025, we endeavour to do just that.” She added: “Robust IP protection encourages investment in R&D and commercialisation of new ideas. Multi-stakeholder collaboration – across government, industry, academia and more – also helps translate IP into measurable economic impact. Hong Kong – as a regional centre for IP trading and an international hub for innovation and technology – is taking the lead in supporting the sustainability of this vital sector. Over the next two days, BIP Asia will explore a variety of areas, including financing, sustainability, creativity, licensing and more, highlighting the integral role of IP in driving business growth, and helping companies identify and capture valuable opportunities.”Exploring IP financing and global trendsThis year’s Forum, themed “Leverage IP to Finance Business Growth”, examines IP’s role as a core driver of sustainable expansion. The keynote session, “IP Valuation and Financing”, features Lewis C Lee, Founder and CEO of Moat Metrics, Inc.; Terence Koh, Managing Director and Head of Telecommunications, Media and Technology at United Overseas Bank Limited; and Sung-tae Ha, Director of IP, Valuation and Management Center of Korea Invention Promotion Association.

He said: “Our patent examiner team is expanding and we are taking forward the preparatory work for introduction of regulatory arrangement for local patent agent services; our Copyright Ordinance and registered designs regime will be modernised to ensure our legal framework is fit for the digital age; and finally, we are creating the deal flow by arranging business-matching programme connecting Mainland enterprises with Hong Kong’s world-class IP service providers to embody our “bringing in and going global” strategy.” He emphasised that the Hong Kong Technology and Innovation Support Centre helps innovators create quality assets; the patent valuation subsidy scheme helps establish patents’ technical and economic worth; the legal reforms provide the certainty. Business matching and regional partnerships generate the opportunities. And the “IP financing sandbox” turns it all into financeable, scalable reality.Strengthening Go-Global strategies for Mainland enterprisesCo-organised with the Guangdong Administration for Market Regulation, the afternoon session, titled “Cross-Border Empowerment: Forging a New IP-Driven Investment Ecosystem in the Greater Bay Area”, focuses on regional collaboration, cross-border IP protection and financing strategies to help enterprises scale from the GBA to global markets. Tomorrow morning’s session, “Brand Global Gateway – WIPO’s Services Empowering Global Brand Value”, co-organised with World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) and the HKSAR Intellectual Property Department, will discuss how enterprises can use international IP services to enhance global brand competitiveness and accelerate overseas expansion.For the first time, the Forum will introduce an “IP Go-Global Business Matching Session”, allowing local professional service providers and IP lawyers to offer one-on-one consultations to Mainland enterprises.

Think ‘Design for X’ from the very beginning: design for manufacturing, supply chain, testing, and scaling. Also, leverage public ecosystems and free infrastructure instead of spending everything on private labs. Successful Deep Tech companies plan for industrial-scale production and customer integration while they are still in the lab.”The GBA Tripartite Roundtable: “Empowering GBA Startups to Expand into ASEAN with Hong Kong as a Super-connector and Super Value-adder” explores opportunities for Greater Bay Area start-ups to tap into ASEAN and global markets. Speakers discuss how Hong Kong can leverage its dual role as a super-connector and super value-adder to accelerate cross-border innovation collaboration and market expansion. The roundtable features insights from Intan Zalani, the Consul (Trade) of Malaysia in Hong Kong; Ms Ponpicha Pethkaewkul, Senior Innovation Counsellor, National Innovation Agency, Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation (Thailand); Peter Mok, General Manager of Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Youth Innovation and Entrepreneur Hub; Stephen Chan, Partner of Charles Russell Speechlys LLP; and Prof Martin Chu, CEO & Co-founder, i2COOL Limited, who will offer perspectives from government, incubators, the legal profession and startup founders on how Hong Kong can support GBA start-ups in going global.Intan Zalani said: “Beyond semiconductors and manufacturing, exciting opportunities await GBA startups in Malaysia’s fast-evolving digital payments landscape, where multiple e-wallets and QR-code payments have largely replaced cash, as well as in renewable energy, especially solar and biomass. The government offers attractive tax incentives for green technology investments. With Malaysia’s strategic position as ASEAN’s natural hub and Hong Kong’s role as super-connector, there is indeed a slice of the pie for everyone. We warmly invite Greater Bay Area entrepreneurs to partner with us, establish presence in Malaysia, and together capture the US$1 trillion ASEAN digital economy opportunity by 2030.”Global Start-ups take the stage at “Start-up Express International”This year’s “Start-up Express International” brings together ten quality start-ups across the globe, covering green tech, healthtech, AI, edtech and more—demonstrating Hong Kong’s attractiveness as an international launchpad. The international start-ups will share their entrepreneurial journeys and exchange insights with panel speakers from Cyberport, Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks, Hong Kong-Shenzhen Innovation and Technology Park, and InvestHK, exploring opportunities in Hong Kong and the GBA. A seminar titled “Crafting the Next-Gen Wardrobe: Innovation for a Sustainable Future” brings together leading experts in sustainable fashion to explore how innovative technologies are driving the integration of TechStyle and sustainability. Speakers will share insights on nature-inspired sustainable materials and intelligent textile technologies, with the goal of creating a fashion sector that seamlessly blends aesthetics with environmental responsibility.Running concurrently from 3 to 6 December, DesignInspire presents works from leading local and international designers.

HONG KONG, December 4, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – On December 3, CaoCao Inc. ('CaoCao'; 2643.HK) held a Robotaxi strategy update launch event in Hangzhou. CEO Gong Xin announced an enhanced Robotaxi roadmap, introduced the "100 Cities, 100 Billion in 10 Years" strategic goal, and unveiled the first future-oriented urban mobility hub — the 'Green Intelligent Mobility Hub'. Empowered by Geely's technology ecosystem, CaoCao is now accelerating the commercial deployment of Robotaxi services.The event took place at the world's first Green Intelligent Mobility Hub. An Conghui of Geely Holding Group said, "CaoCao is not only Geely Holding Group's technology-driven mobility platform, but also our most important vehicle for exploring the future of mobility and enabling the commercial operation of Robotaxis. It is also at the forefront of validating cutting-edge technologies and demonstrating ecosystem-wide collaboration."CaoCao's Three-Phase Robotaxi Strategy and the "100 Cities, 100 Billion in 10 Years" VisionAt the event, CaoCao presented its three-phase Robotaxi strategy in full for the first time. In the initial phase, the focus is on technology validation and small-scale pilot operations. In the current phase, the company will complete the transition from safety-driver-based operations to fully driverless operations, while piloting mixed operations involving both human-driven and driverless vehicles. In the future, CaoCao will deploy fully customized Robotaxi models to enable large-scale commercial operations worldwide.CaoCao also officially released its "100 Cities, 100 Billion in 10 Years" global strategic goal. Over the next decade, the company plans to establish five global operation centers, roll out Robotaxi services in 100 cities worldwide, and achieve a cumulative gross transaction value (GTV) of RMB 100 billion. This will be an important part of Geely Holding Group's globalization strategy built around smart mobility services.Gong Xin noted that in the Robotaxi 2.0 phase, CaoCao will further enhance its capabilities in large-scale automated fleet operations, launch the CaoCao Intelligent Mobility RAS platform, and fully implement a digital asset management system, thereby deeply integrating its operational strengths with smart cockpit and intelligent driving technologies to build a closed-loop system for fully driverless Robotaxi operations.The Green Intelligent Mobility Hub was also officially put into operation. According to Gong Xin, the first hub brings together automated battery swapping, self-cleaning, in-vehicle tidying, intelligent dispatching, and automated billing, and is designed with reserved eVTOL take-off and landing pads and charging interfaces, offering an early prototype of future urban mobility infrastructure. The Green Intelligent Mobility Hub is the tangible expression of Geely Holding Group's aim to "lead the green and intelligent mobility ecosystem," and CaoCao has developed a replicable standard for its construction. In the future, city-level hubs will provide seamless connections between Robotaxis and Aerofugia's eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing) aircraft. These hubs will be backed by Geespace's low-Earth-orbit satellite network, which will deliver ubiquitous communications coverage and high-precision positioning data, helping to shape an integrated "sky–ground–space" mobility blueprint.CaoCao will also explore more diversified revenue models and create new employment opportunities. As the Robotaxi business grows, the company may open vehicle purchase channels to drivers and form operational partnerships with them to jointly explore revenue opportunities. Going forward, expansion of the fleet and the continued build-out of Green Intelligent Mobility Hubs will create new types of roles, including positions in cloud-based remote assurance and asset management.Leveraging the Geely Technology Ecosystem to Build Core Robotaxi Competitiveness for CaoCaoAs one of the most closely watched areas in automotive intelligence, competition in the Robotaxi space has moved beyond single algorithms or hardware components and has become a system-level contest spanning intelligent custom vehicles, autonomous driving technologies, and smart operational platforms — and this is precisely where Geely Holding Group’s intelligent technology ecosystem has built a strong competitive moat.Backed by Geely's technology ecosystem, CaoCao has all the key elements needed for Robotaxi development and has established a unique integrated model that combines intelligent custom vehicles, autonomous driving technologies, and smart operations. This model is underpinned by Geely's strong capabilities in electric and intelligent vehicle R&D and manufacturing. It integrates cutting-edge technologies in computing power, algorithms, data, and systems integration, and is further reinforced by CaoCao's long-standing expertise in urban operations, asset management, user services, and the broader mobility ecosystem. Together, these strengths form a comprehensive closed-loop system for Robotaxi operations, enabling the coordinated optimization of safety, efficiency, and user experience.As Geely Holding Group's most important platform for the commercial operation of Robotaxis, CaoCao has spent the past decade cultivating the shared mobility market, accumulating vast volumes of trip data, developing mature dispatch algorithms, and building a nationwide service network, all of which provide a solid foundation for Robotaxi commercialization. In addition, by owning and operating the largest custom fleet of its kind in China, CaoCao has gained valuable experience in large-scale fleet operations and efficient asset management—expertise that is essential for the Robotaxi era.At the event, CaoCao and Afari Technology signed a strategic partnership agreement in the presence of CaoCao CEO Gong Xin and Afari Technology Chairman Yin Qi. Leveraging Geely Holding Group's powerful technology ecosystem, the two parties will deepen their collaboration in the Robotaxi sector and accelerate the large-scale adoption and commercial deployment of autonomous driving technologies.The launch and steady advancement of CaoCao's Robotaxi strategy provide a replicable operational model for the green and intelligent transformation of urban transportation. The company is taking concrete action to bring Robotaxis into everyday life and to unlock a broader commercial future for the Robotaxi business.CaoCao Inc (HKSE 02634), https://www.caocao.com.cnGeely Automobile Holdings Ltd (HKSE 00175), https://www.geelyauto.com.hk  Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

SYDNEY, AU, Dec 4, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - You have seen the videos and read the blogs. Now you are finally planning your own food pilgrimage to Japan. We are talking about that perfect, silky bowl of ramen, sushi that melts in your mouth, and hot takoyaki straight from the griddle.But let us be honest for a second. The difference between a good food trip and an absolutely epic one often comes down to one simple thing: can you actually find the place? And when you do, do you know what you are ordering?That is where a bit of modern tech makes all the difference. Here is how to use your phone, and a TravelKon eSIM, to eat your way through Japan like a pro.Never Walk Past the Best Meal of Your TripThe wildest thing about Japan's food scene is that the best spots are often hidden. We are talking about a noodle shop with no English sign down a back alley in Shinjuku, or a tiny sushi counter in a Tokyo subway station.Your map app is your best mate here. But it is useless if it is buffering. With a reliable local data connection, you can navigate in real time, right to the door. Even better, you can be spontaneous. See a huge line of locals? A quick search can tell you if they are queueing for the city's best tonkatsu or just a new phone shop.A TravelKon Japan eSIM on a proper Japanese network like Docomo or KDDI means no more guessing. Your maps just work, turning your phone into a reliable compass pointing directly to deliciousness.Order the Good Stuff, Not the Mystery ItemYou have found an incredible-looking izakaya, a casual pub. It is packed with locals, the atmosphere is buzzing and the menu is a full sheet of Kanji with no pictures. Now what?Whip out your phone and use the camera function on Google Translate. Just point it at the menu, and it will overlay the English translation right on your screen. Now you can confidently order the famous local sea urchin, instead of accidentally pointing to something more adventurous.This magic trick needs a solid, fast data connection to work instantly. A dodgy connection means a delayed, jumbled translation. With your Japan eSIM, you can decode any menu on the spot, turning a moment of panic into a fun part of the experience.Share Your Food Without Waiting for Hotel Wi-FiLet us be honest, that beautifully crafted sushi platter or that steaming bowl of ramen is a work of art. You want to share it with your friends back home now, not six hours later when you are back on the hotel's patchy Wi-Fi.Post that video of the sizzling okonomiyaki to your Story right from the table. Livestream the sushi chef's masterful skills for a minute. Upload your 4K reel of Osaka's Dotonbori street food scene that night.This is where data plans matter. If you are a big sharer, you will want a Japan eSIM with plenty of data, or even an unlimited plan, so you never have to think twice about it. It lets you document your trip in the moment, when the excitement is freshest.Get Out of Town and Find the Real GemsThe culinary adventures in Japan do not stop at the city limits. In fact, some of the best finds are in regional areas. Think the incredible Hida beef in Takayama, the fresh seafood in Hokkaido's markets, or the unique street food at a local matsuri, or festival.Use your data to research regional specialties and check train times for a spontaneous day trip. Find that famous soba shop in the mountains everyone talks about.Many cheap Japan SIMs or roaming plans have weak coverage outside major cities. A TravelKon Japan eSIM on a major network means you are just as connected in a small town in Kyoto prefecture as you are in downtown Tokyo, giving you the confidence to explore further.Keep It Simple: Your Connection SortedThe easiest way to make this all happen is with an eSIM. You just scan a QR code to install it before you go, and you are online minutes after you land at Narita or Haneda. No faffing about at a SIM card vending machine.Think about how you travel. If you're planning to go hard on the social posts, an Unlimited Japan eSIM means you can share every bite without ever slowing down. Or, if you're also popping over to Korea or Taiwan, a multi-country Asia eSIM has you covered for the whole trip. And if you just need maps and translations to get by, a flexible data pack will do the trick perfectly and save you some cash for an extra meal or two.Your dream food trip to Japan is waiting. With your phone properly connected, you can spend less time getting lost and more time tracking down that perfect, life-changing bite.Ready to eat your way through Japan? Check out TravelKon's Japan eSIMs and find the right one for your adventure.About TravelKonTravelKon is an Australian company with a simple goal: to provide reliable and affordable connectivity for travellers.

Muscat, Oman, Dec 4, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Three months after its introduction, Oman's 10-Year Golden Residency is emerging as one of the region's most compelling long-term residency pathways, attracting rising interest from investors, entrepreneurs, and internationally mobile families seeking stability, transparent regulation, and strategic access to high-growth markets. The programme-launched under Oman Vision 2040-offers a structured framework for investors wishing to establish deeper roots in a country positioning itself as a secure and globally connected economic hub.The Golden Residency grants eligible applicants long-term residency in return for a minimum investment of USD 520,000 across seven clearly defined routes. These include owning completed real estate units within Integrated Tourism Complexes; establishing a company registered in Oman; purchasing government development bonds; investing in securities listed on the Muscat Stock Exchange; or placing a fixed-term deposit in a licensed Omani bank for a minimum of five years. Applicants may also qualify by owning a company that employs at least 50 Omani nationals or through nomination under Oman's Foreign Capital Investment Law, provided the company's capital meets the required threshold.A defining feature of the programme is its family-centric design. Approved applicants can sponsor their spouse and children of any age, secure additional property outside tourism zones, and employ up to three domestic workers without a local sponsor. The residency also includes fast-track immigration lanes and expanded visit visas for extended family members. These benefits-rare in many global residency schemes-position Oman as a destination offering long-term security as well as an inclusive, predictable environment for families.The application system is fully digital, enabling applicants worldwide to upload documents, track applications, and engage directly with dedicated relationship managers. The programme is supported by Migrate World, which provides due-diligence verification and relocation support to align the onboarding process with international investor-migration standards. The streamlined model reflects Oman's broader institutional push toward efficiency, transparency, and unified investor services.Oman's geographic position at the junction of Asia, Africa, and the Middle East continues to be a central factor in global interest. With access to more than 2.6 billion consumers and direct links to major trade routes, the country is increasingly viewed as a stable base for regional operations. Strong regulatory institutions, long-standing political neutrality, and one of the world's most stable currencies further reinforce investor confidence. Quality-of-life indicators are also contributing to global demand, with Oman ranking among the top countries worldwide for safety, climate, and purchasing power.Officials note that the programme is already complementing national efforts to attract talent and capital into priority sectors. Pathways requiring the employment of Omani nationals support the country's human-capital goals, while mandatory audits strengthen governance and operational standards among participating companies. Early interest from investors in renewable energy, logistics, advanced manufacturing, tourism, and mining aligns closely with Oman's diversification agenda under Vision 2040.As competition intensifies across global residency and citizenship programmes, Oman is positioning its model as long-term, reliable, and partnership-driven. While other regional initiatives rely heavily on short-term incentives, Oman's approach-grounded in regulatory clarity, economic stability, and a family-focused design-is steadily gaining recognition in international investment circles. Three months into its rollout, early indicators suggest the programme is on track to become a key driver of Oman's investment attractiveness in the years ahead.Further details and the full application process are available at: https://omanresidence.gov.om/About Invest OMAN:Invest Oman is the Sultanate's official gateway for strategic investment, offering investors unified access to opportunities across priority sectors aligned with Oman Vision 2040.
