Aesthetics of Tipsiness Meets the Lion City: 29° Crush On Officially Launches in Singapore

Published

on

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 28 April 2026 – On April 20, Wuliangye hosted the 29° Crush On Launch & Enchanting Night at Wuliangye Dining Singapore. The official debut of 29° Crush On in the Singaporean market showcases the brand’s “Celadon Oriental Aesthetics” alongside innovative international consumption scenarios, presenting a new image of Chinese Baijiu to the Southeast Asian market—one that is international, fashionable, and trend-driven.

As Southeast Asia’s economic and financial hub and a gateway for multicultural consumption, Singapore boasts a mature and diverse alcohol market, providing a natural testing ground for the multi-scenario application of Chinese Baijiu. Whether it is a chilled specialty drink at a Marina Bay terrace party, a neat pour for a small gathering at Clarke Quay, or a creative cocktail at home, the “unrestricted trendy drinking” positioning of 29° Crush On fits perfectly.

Wuliangye Dining Singapore hosted a seven-day “A Toast To Youth” limited-time pop-up, attracting nearly 1,000 consumers. The Celadon-themed event space and signature 29° Crush On cocktails became hot topics on social media platforms like RedNote and Instagram. Multiple local influencers in the food, spirits, and lifestyle sectors shared their experiences, driving total platform exposure to over 2 million.

Many local enthusiasts shared their initial impressions of 29° Crush On: “It carries subtle floral and fruity notes with a rich aroma of pineapple—truly pleasant. Upon the first sip, a sweetness unfolds on the palate. As you savor it, you feel the rich layers of texture, followed by a clean, long-lasting finish that brings a comfortable warmth and a classic mellow aftertaste.” This leap from “cultural curiosity” to “consumer recognition” is largely driven by scenario-based innovation. 29° Crush On caters to business banquets, social gatherings, solo relaxation, and trendy mixology, allowing consumers to “please themselves anytime, anywhere” whether drinking it neat, on the rocks, or in a cocktail.

The event was held at Wuliangye Dining Singapore, located in the vibrant Bugis District. Specializing in fusion Cantonese cuisine, the restaurant’s hallmark is the deep integration of dishes with Wuliangye Baijiu. Wuliangye forms classic pairings with signature dishes like Crispy Roast Chicken, Black Truffle Fried Rice, and Steamed Seafood. The unique aroma of the spirit complements Nanyang flavors, offering an international dining experience where “food carries the spirit of the baijiu, and baijiu enhances the flavor of the food.”

Aesthetics of Tipsiness Meets the Lion City: 29° Crush On Officially Launches in Singapore

Leveraging rising market heat and consumer word-of-mouth, Wuliangye Dining Singapore has successfully converted brand buzz into stable foot traffic, driving synergy between product communication and channel management. It has become a mature model for Wuliangye’s overseas strategy of “Offline Experience — Word-of-Mouth Expansion — Consumer Conversion.”

Jiang Jia, Deputy General Manager of Wuliangye Yibin Co., Ltd., stated that Singapore’s inclusive market provides a premium platform for the brand’s expression. The launch of 29° Crush On aims to convey the beauty of Chinese Baijiu in a way that is trendier, more international, and closer to the consumer.

Using Singapore as a strategic hub for Southeast Asia, Wuliangye will continue to deepen its localized operations and broaden consumption scenarios. By making Chinese Baijiu a natural and daily part of life for global consumers, the brand is steering the internationalization of Baijiu toward a new stage of high-quality development.

The launch was attended by MOA Deputy Minister Hu Jong-I, Ministry counselor Wu Wen-ling, Pan Pacific Hotels Group Executive Director Ms. Wee Wei Ling, and Yang Ming Spring Founder Mr. Chen Chien-Hung. Deputy Minister Hu noted that this festival marks a critical milestone for Taiwanese agriculture as it integrates with green gastronomy globally. The MOA aims to connect Singaporean consumers with Taiwan’s top-tier produce, establishing a premium brand image rooted in food safety and trust to unlock future export channels.

The launch elegantly incorporated Taiwan’s Phalaenopsis orchid floral aesthetics to create a “five-sensory feast” that harmonized taste, vision, and cultural narrative, solidifying Taiwan’s premium brand image. The event successfully drew over 80 distinguished guests, including mainstream Singaporean media, food critics, business chamber representatives, and executive chefs.

Concurrently, the official residence of the Taipei Representative Office in Singapore hosted the festival’s thematic opening reception, serving as a premier venue for cultural diplomacy and showcasing the narrative of Taiwan’s agricultural excellence. The exhibition focused on three themes: Taiwanese orchid aesthetics, Mango Pineapple innovation, and sustainable agriculture tourism. This space demonstrated Taiwan’s agricultural evolution from precision R&D to green sustainability, highlighting its export potential to foreign diplomats and Singaporean trade buyers.

The MOA emphasized that the initiative’s core strategy is to “drive tangible procurement through engaging and immersive experiences in our target markets.” By bridging high-end dining with diplomatic prestige, the three-month campaign will maximize the visibility of Taiwanese agri-products across Southeast Asian markets. Aligning with global net-zero sustainability trends, the festival establishes a safe, premium brand image, paving the way for Taiwanese agriculture to integrate into global high-end supply chains and broader Asia-Pacific channels.

SIM Academy Enhances Flexible Upskilling Pathways for Adult Learners and Working Parents

Published

on

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 1 July 2026 – SIM Academy today announced its continued commitment to supporting adult learners and working parents through flexible, industry-relevant upskilling pathways designed to meet the demands of modern work and life.

As workforce transformation accelerates, many adult learners face a common challenge: balancing professional responsibilities, caregiving commitments, and personal development. Recognising that time constraints remain a key barrier to learning, SIM Academy has developed a range of flexible programme formats that enable learners to upskill without disrupting their daily routines.

Short and focused pathways for working parents
Learning programmes with long course duration can be intimidating for busy adults. Working parents often prefer shorter and more manageable course modules. This is especially useful for parents who may only have short windows of time in the evenings, during lunch breaks, or over the weekend.

Instead of commuting to class every session, parents can learn from home and control their pace more easily. SIM Academy’s online courses are designed to support career mobility and future-proof skills. This is a practical option for learners who need both flexibility and relevance. When pathways are flexible, learners can choose the direction that best aligns with their current stage of life and career.

Supporting career progression across growth areas
SIM Academy’s learning pathways are structured to support progressive skill development across key industry domains. Learners can begin with foundational courses and advance to specialised areas aligned with their career goals.

For instance, individuals seeking to transition into digital roles can build core capabilities before moving into more advanced technical or applied programmes. Similarly, professionals aiming to strengthen leadership competencies can develop skills in communication, collaboration, and people management.

In response to the growing importance of sustainability, SIM Academy also offers programmes tailored for senior professionals, including C-suite leaders, senior management, and SME decision-makers. These courses focus on equipping leaders with the knowledge and tools to address climate-related risks, strengthen governance frameworks, and integrate sustainability into business strategy in line with evolving regulatory requirements.

Enabling Lifelong learning through flexible delivery

SIM Academy’s multi-modal delivery approach, spanning online, blended, and in-person formats, provides learners with the flexibility to pursue continuous education at their own pace. By offering industry-aligned programmes in areas such as leadership, innovation, sustainability, and essential workplace skills, SIM Academy empowers adult learners to remain competitive and future-ready.

As organisations continue to evolve, SIM Academy remains committed to enabling lifelong learning through accessible, practical and flexible education pathways that support both professional growth and personal responsibilities.

AI Business on the Rise, Revenue Soared by Nearly 2.8 Times Fuelling Future Growth

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 1 July 2026 – Yeebo (International Holdings) Limited (“Yeebo” or the “Company”, stock code: 00259.HK, which together with its subsidiaries is referred to as the “Group”) announces its annual results for the year ended 31 March 2026 (the “Year”).

The Group recorded a consolidated revenue of approximately HK$1,181.0 million for the Year, representing a year-on-year increase of 13.7%. The Group’s product portfolio comprises Liquid Crystal Displays (“LCDs”), Liquid Crystal Display modules (“LCMs”), Thin Film Transistor modules (“TFTs”), Capacitive Touch Panel modules (“CTPs”) (collectively “Display Business”), as well as artificial intelligence (“AI”)-related products and AI computing services (collectively “AI Business”). During the year under review, revenue for Display Business increased by 2.6% to HK$1,021.7 million. Among which, the contribution of CTPs to the Group’s total revenue has become increasingly significant, reflecting the Group’s progress in expanding into higher value-added product segments. Meanwhile, the AI Business recorded strong growth, with revenue rising significantly by nearly 2.8 times to HK$159.3 million, emerging as a new growth driver. This rapid expansion highlighted the Group’s early success in developing this segment, which is expected to play an increasingly important role in supporting the Group’s long-term revenue and profitability.

For the year ended 31 March 2026, the Group achieved a gross profit of HK$125.9 million. The gross profit margin decreased slightly to 10.7%. This decline was mainly due to the high fixed costs associated with the AI Business. Profit attributable to owners of the Company surged to approximately HK$1,950.6 million, representing a decrease of HK$838.1 million as compared with that for the preceding year. This was primarily due to a non-recurring gain recorded in the preceding year from the disposal of the Group’s entire interests in Nantong Jianghai Capacitor Company Ltd. (“Nantong Jianghai”) (including the deemed disposal of the remaining 13.81% equity interests), which was a former associate of the Group. Basic earnings per share were HK212.7 cents. The board of directors (“Board”) has proposed to recommend the payment of a final dividend of HK5.0 cents per share for the Year.

Commenting on the annual results of the Group, Mr. Fang Yan Tak, Douglas, Chairman of Yeebo, said, “During the year under review, the global business environment remained challenging. Amid geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic uncertainties, Yeebo remained committed to prudent execution, strengthening operational resilience, and focusing on long-term value creation. On one hand, we continued to broaden the application base of our core display business and deepen customer relationships. On the other hand, we made encouraging progress in scaling up our AI business, advancing ecosystem development, and driving commercial deployment. During the Year, the Group continued to increase its investment in AI compute and related businesses, achieving notable results in building a more comprehensive domestic AI compute service platform in Mainland China. Benefiting from the rapid development of the domestic AI compute industry, our AI business delivered strong growth and has increasingly become a key engine driving the Group’s overall development.”

For the Display Business, Yeebo is encouraged by the meaningful progress made in broadening our product offering, reflecting stronger product development capability and deeper engagement with customers. During the Year, the Group successfully secured consistent or first mass production orders across four application segments, namely (i) commercial coffee machines, (ii) automotive, (iii) household appliances and (iv) agricultural and construction machinery, demonstrating the Group’s continued market expansion and laying a solid foundation for robust growth in Display Business going forward.

Regarding to the AI Compute and related business, Yeebo has operated its AI compute and related businesses through its wholly owned subsidiary, Suanova Technology Limited (“Suanova”) over the past few years, and has successfully established itself as a key participant in China’s AI industry value chain. Yeebo continued to step up its investment in AI compute and related businesses during the Year. Its investments into early-stage AI companies, including MetaX Integrated Circuits (Shanghai) Co Ltd (688802.SH), Shanghai Biren Technology Co Ltd (06082.HK) and Shanghai Xizhi Technology Co Ltd (01879.HK), have generated strong and favorable returns.

For the AI Business development, the Group expanded the number of domestic graphics processing unit (“GPU”) clusters operated or managed under the public cloud service model to five, with utilization generally maintained at above 90%. These compute resources supported a broad range of AI for Science (“AI4S”) applications as well as foundation model training and inferencing scenarios. It demonstrated the Group’s increasingly mature capabilities in multi-network architecture compatibility, multi-platform scheduling, layered compute optimization and diversified application deployment. At the same time, the Group began to engage in the integration and delivery of private cloud GPU clusters of different scales and commenced the development of full-stack end-to-end AI solutions, taking initial steps toward becoming a domestic compute service provider with broader and more comprehensive service capabilities.

Over the past year, users of domestic GPU clusters were primarily concentrated in the AI4S field. Through long-term collaboration with leading universities and research institutions (Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Fudan University, Tsinghua University, the Shanghai AI Laboratory, the Shanghai Institute for Advanced Algorithms, Zhejiang University, Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Westlake University etc.), the Group established a strong base of core users for the domestic GPU clusters. The Group progressively expanded the usage of domestic GPU clusters to foundation models and vertical industry-specific models across both training and inferencing. Through investing in selected early-stage AI companies with differentiated core capabilities, the Group further promoted the adoption of domestic GPU clusters. In addition, the Group has also completed the first single domestic GPU cluster training task at the thousand-card scale, further strengthening its leading position in the industry.

The Group believes the long-term strategic importance of domestic compute capabilities remains compelling. Through equity investments, joint research and development and business collaboration, the Group has actively begun to build an integrated ecosystem. Leveraging the AI computing ecosystem, the Group has collaborated closely with various key domestic hardware and software partners to enhance mutual compatibility and achieve synergistic optimization. This further strengthens the Group’s capabilities in computing adaptation and scheduling optimization. Looking ahead, the Group will further accelerate the development of end-to-end domestic AI compute solutions for selected industries, including healthcare, financial services and AI4S, as well as model tools and extensions (such as low bit low resource training and memory OS). By combining relevant AI solutions with integrated domestic AI compute hardware and software, and offering flexible deployment through public cloud or private cloud models, we believe this business is increasingly well positioned to capture the opportunities arising from the continued development of AI.

The Group’s capacitor-related investment interests continued to contribute to the overall strength of the Group’s asset base during the Year. As at 31 March 2026, the Group held 100,600,932 shares in Nantong Jianghai, with a fair value of approximately HK$3.3 billion.

Mr. Fang Yan Tak, Douglas, Chairman of Yeebo, concluded, “Looking ahead, we will continue to refine our product portfolio, elevate production excellence, and optimize our customer structure to sustain our market position in the display market, while exploring new applications for our products across various sectors. We will continue to strengthen its strategic deployment in AI computing, and actively support Suanova in unlocking its technological innovation capabilities and platform potential. We believe that as AI applications continue to expand and deepen, computing power is gradually evolving into a core driving force behind a new wave of industrial upgrading. In the face of the historic opportunities brought by the AI wave, the Group will further intensify its investment in AI business, focusing on high-growth technology companies, and create synergies through collaboration to fully capture the development opportunities arising from the continued expansion of the AI computing market. We firmly believe that by upholding our commitment to technological innovation and continuously deepening ecosystem collaboration, we will sustain a leading position in the intelligent era and deliver long-term, sustainable value to the Group and its shareholders.”
