OJAI, CALIFORNIA, Sept 9, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Elixir today announced significant progress in its patent application for Elixir Catalyst, a groundbreaking AI and machine learning-powered solution that transforms how organizations migrate from legacy Customer Communications Management (CCM) systems. This revolutionary technology addresses one of the most daunting challenges facing enterprises today: replacing mission-critical CCM platforms that have been deeply embedded in business operations for years or even decades."CCM migration has long been considered one of the highest-risk, most expensive technology projects an organization can undertake," said Tarek Harry, CEO at Elixir. "With Elixir Catalyst, we're fundamentally changing this reality. Our patent-pending AI technology can slash migration timelines by 3-4x and reduce costs by 50-80%, transforming what was once a multi-year, multimillion-dollar nightmare into a streamlined, predictable process."Traditional CCM migrations often exceed a year in duration and cost millions of dollars, particularly with legacy solutions that require complete manual template rebuilds. Organizations face the painful reality of complex data migrations and high-stakes compliance risks that can halt production and damage the bottom line. Elixir Catalyst solves these challenges through its innovative approach that requires only data sources and sample PDF outputs to automatically generate fully functional Elixir Cloud templates. The solution combines patent-pending AI and machine learning technology with expert professional services to rapidly convert legacy and competitive documents while maintaining template fidelity through built-in checks and human oversight."What makes Elixir Catalyst truly revolutionary is its vendor and system agnostic approach," said Libby Koehn, Global VP of Product at Elixir. "We don't need access to the original CCM platform - just sample PDF outputs and their data feeds. This means organizations can finally break free from legacy systems without the traditional barriers of complex integrations and manual reconstruction efforts. Our AI technology even discovers business / data rules for variable content, shared resources and optimizes templates during the conversion process."The solution has already demonstrated remarkable success in the field. One of the largest insurers in the country leveraged Elixir Catalyst to migrate from legacy systems in under a year at 60% less cost than the nearest competitor, avoiding the multi-year timelines and millions in costs quoted by incumbent CCM vendors.Key benefits of Elixir Catalyst include:Dramatic reduction in migration time and costs through AI-powered automationAccelerated time to value by eliminating manual template re-developmentEnhanced template fidelity with built-in quality checks and expert oversightSystem agnostic approach requiring only sample PDF outputs and data feedsOptimized template generation through intelligent discovery and generation of data mappings, variable content rules, and shared resourcesAs organizations increasingly recognize the need to modernize their communication systems for improved security, scalability, and business agility, Elixir Catalyst provides a transformative path forward that significantly reduces the traditional risks and complexities of CCM migration.The advancement of Elixir's patent application represents a significant milestone in the company's commitment to innovation in the customer communications space, building on its cloud-native platform that already empowers business users to create personalized communications at scale.About ElixirElixir is the leader in the customer communication space. Our cloud-native Customer Communication Management (CCM) platform empowers business users to create personalized, meaningful communications at scale without technical complexity.

The E-commerce Express will continue to organise various initiatives aimed at helping Hong Kong SMEs seize opportunities in the mainland e-commerce market.HONG KONG, Sep 9, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – The Hong Kong Shopping Festival, organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) and fully supported by the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), concluded successfully, with over 100 million total impressions across the official website, e-commerce platforms and social media channel, an 11% increase compared to last year. The HKTDC launched the E-commerce Express this year, with the Hong Kong Shopping Festival serving as the flagship event. Following the festival, E-commerce Express will continue to organise various initiatives aimed at helping Hong Kong SMEs seize opportunities in the mainland e-commerce market.Algernon Yau, Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development of the HKSAR Government, said: “The Hong Kong Shopping Festival has successfully brought about notable sales and enhanced the reputation of the brands of participating Hong Kong enterprises. The Government is committed to encouraging enterprises to expand their operations in both the mainland and overseas markets. To this end, the Government will continue to further assist Hong Kong enterprises in developing brands, upgrading and transforming through multi-pronged support measures, including funding schemes, training and information services, as well as promotional activities and exhibitions. Additionally, we look forward to continuing our support to the HKTDC to organise the Hong Kong Shopping Festival next year, thereby enabling the trade to grasp the business opportunities in the e-commerce market.”Patrick Lau, Deputy Executive Director, HKTDC, said: “Brands owned by Hong Kong SMEs are known for their high quality and authenticity. There is strong demand for Hong Kong products among online consumers in the mainland. A recent survey by the HKTDC revealed that 78% of respondents had purchased Hong Kong products online in the past year. The Hong Kong Shopping Festival successfully opened up opportunities for Hong Kong brands and SMEs in the mainland e-commerce market. We are dedicated to supporting their expansion into both mainland and international markets through the E-commerce Express programme.”The second Hong Kong Shopping Festival attracted nearly 260 brands, with an enhanced event page on platforms like Taobao, JD.com, and Douyin, showcasing over 500 Hong Kong products. This initiative offered mainland consumers a month-long, one-stop online shopping experience with exclusive discounts. The campaign used various promotional strategies, including full-screen ads, keyword searches, push notifications, and lucky draws, all aimed at driving traffic to the event page and associated online stores. Additionally, targeted online and offline advertising campaigns focused on high-end mainland consumers and visitors from the mainland, boosting the campaign's visibility and the profiles of participating Hong Kong online stores.This year, the Hong Kong Shopping Festival received support from renowned artists such as Samantha Ko, Grace Chan, Kenneth Ma, and Sisley Choi, along with over 30 influencers from the mainland, including Li Jiaqi, Lin Yilun, and Hu Ke. They conducted live-streaming sessions for more than 80 brands, with some sessions taking place in Hong Kong for the first time. All live-streaming sessions attracted over 10 million views in total. The topics surrounding the Hong Kong Shopping Festival generated substantial buzz on mainland social media, with discussions on platforms like Douyin and Xiaohongshu surpassing 50 million views, and continued to spread across WeChat, Weibo, and other online communities, amplifying the campaign's reach.Hong Kong Shopping Festival: Multi-strategy to enrich practical experience for local SMEsDuring the promotional period, health supplements and food and beverage products gained significant popularity, highlighting the confidence of mainland consumers in the credibility and quality assurance of Hong Kong products. The Hong Kong Shopping Festival live-streaming sessions frequently topped the trending lists, with several best-selling items ranked in the top five across categories such as snacks and nuts, health supplements and outdoor footwear and apparel.The Hong Kong Shopping Festival has received strong recognition from local brands, including Wah Yuen Foods (H.K.) Co., Ltd., a long-established snack manufacturer that has participated in the campaign for two consecutive years. Its Director Brian But said, "The e-commerce market in mainland China has immense potential. This campaign not only brings us closer to mainland consumers but also significantly enhances our brand visibility. Moreover, live-streaming has greatly amplified our promotional efforts. When consumers see influencers enjoying our products, it undoubtedly stimulates their desire to purchase." Brian also noted that this year marked Wah Yuen's first participation in a live-streaming session and several classic snacks gained popularity among more than 20 KOLs, including prominent streamers on Taobao and Douyin. The Satay Beef Slices became the best-selling item, contributing to a 50% increase in sales during the event. He said the Hong Kong Shopping Festival had significantly boosted his confidence and he hopes to launch more new products, leveraging e-commerce as a sales channel to create "hit products."Global Development also achieved outstanding results in its first participation in the Hong Kong Shopping Festival. Its trendy outdoor sportswear brand, ADVT, experienced a twofold increase in sales compared to last year, despite the summer typically being a slow season for windbreakers. The brand generated RMB 400,000 in sales across nearly 10 live-streaming sessions, with new visitors to its online store increasing tenfold. Its Vice President (Branding & Sales) Michael Fan said, "This success was truly unexpected. KOLs' personal try-ons and real-time feedback significantly boosted consumer confidence, encouraging purchases of our higher-priced products. Additionally, the seminars and the one-on-one consultancy services provided valuable and practical e-commerce strategies that enabled us to pinpoint our core strengths, capitalise on our advantages, and define a clear development direction, thus opening a new chapter for the company's growth."Bolstered by a successful market test during the Hong Kong Shopping Festival, several Hong Kong SMEs are exploring the establishment of cross-border online shop to penetrate the mainland market. A prominent example is Aximed Hong Kong Limited, a health supplement brand that participated in the festival through the HKTDC Design Gallery's cross-border online shop. Aximed leveraged customised marketing tools beyond live-streaming such as WeChat promotion and Xiaohongshu seeding, resulting in a doubling of sales compared to the same period last year. The brand now intends to use the insights gained from this experience to refine both its product offerings and marketing approaches, with the ultimate goal of expanding its brand presence in the mainland market.The Hong Kong Shopping Festival also helped mainland e-commerce professionals better understand Hong Kong brands and products, creating more opportunities for collaboration. Wei Yinghui, Managing Partner of Meione (Shanghai) Network Technology Co., shared, "Through the campaign, we have discovered many good-quality brands and products from Hong Kong. We want to leverage our live-streaming platform with Li Jiaqi to help more mainland consumers learn about and love these products. Looking ahead, we hope to find even more amazing offerings from Hong Kong, so everyone can experience the unique charm of the city both online and offline."E-Commerce Express: Year-Round Support for Hong Kong SMEs Expanding into the Mainland MarketHKTDC has launched a year-round promotional programme, E-Commerce Express, to provide enhanced support for SMEs entering the mainland market through e-commerce this year. As part of the programme, the second Hong Kong Shopping Festival collaborated with major e-commerce and social media platforms to promote Hong Kong brands and products. This enables businesses to connect more effectively with their target consumers and seize opportunities in the mainland e-commerce sector.In addition to the Hong Kong Shopping Festival, the E-commerce Express offers a wide range of year-round services, including capacity-building seminars, business consultations, outbound missions, business matchingand market news, . Paul Ko, General Manager of China Bencaoworld Tea (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd.,said: "Through the activities and reports from the HKTDC, we have seen the confidence and recognition that mainland consumers have in Hong Kong brands, which has laid a solid foundation for our company's expansion into the mainland market." Paul earlier participated in an e-tailing business mission to Shenzhen organised under the ”E-Commerce Express” initiative. This year, the company joined the Hong Kong Shopping Festival for the first time and achieved solid results, with sales of several products and online store traffic more than doubling. "We have just established a new office in Shenzhen and will use the Greater Bay Area as a strategic base to continue expanding into the health and wellness markets of first-tier cities such as Shanghai and Beijing. We will also continue to increase investment in operating our online stores and social media platforms. Through connections facilitated by the HKTDC, we have already forged cooperation agreements with some chain stores in the Greater Bay Area, accelerating the entry of our products into the local market both online and offline."Photo Download: http://bit.ly/4pqes4vhttThe Hong Kong Shopping Festival invites renowned mainland China KOLs to host live-streaming e-commerce sessions, resulting in a very positive response.The second Hong Kong Shopping Festival, organised by the HKTDC, achieves total impressions exceeding 100 million across the official website, e-commerce platforms and social media channel.HKSAR Financial Secretary Paul Chan showed his support in a promotional video to promote the Hong Kong Shopping Festival.Media EnquiriesYuan Tung Financial Relations:Louise Song   Tel: (852) 3428 5691  Email: lsong@yuantung.com.hkTiffany Leung Tel: (852) 3428 2361  Email: tleung@yuantung.com.hkHKTDC’s Communications & Public Affairs Department:Sharon Ha     Tel: (852) 2584 4575  Email: sharon.mt.ha@hktdc.orgKaty Wong     Tel: (852) 2584 4524  Email: katy.ky.wong@hktdc.orgHKTDC Media Room:http://mediaroom.hktdc.com/tcAbout HKTDCThe Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) is a statutory body established in 1966 to promote, assist and develop Hong Kong's trade.
