KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 22, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - BlackBerry Limited (NYSE:BB)(TSX:BB) today announced that Malaysia has deployed BlackBerry® AtHoc® and BlackBerry® SecuSUITE® to secure communications and protect people during the ASEAN Summit events in 2025, including the 46th ASEAN Summit held in May, and the 47th ASEAN Summit taking place in Kuala Lumpur from October 26 to 28.Photo Credit: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Malaysia.The ASEAN Summits are among the region's most complex diplomatic events, involving more than 500 meetings and thousands of personnel across multiple government agencies. Coordinated by Malaysia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs through the ASEAN Main Logistics Secretariat (SILA), the Summits bring together heads of state, ministers, and officials from ASEAN member countries and key partners across the Americas, Europe, Africa, and Asia.Photo Credit: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Malaysia.Following a successful deployment at the 46th Summit, SILA has expanded its use of BlackBerry's secure communications platform to protect command and control operations, both within the Summit's operations center and on the move. As advanced signal intelligence capabilities become increasingly available to malicious actors, safeguarding mobile communications has never been more critical.BlackBerry AtHoc, a critical event management platform, combines secure emergency notifications with incident response tools to enable real-time mobile coordination across agencies. BlackBerry SecuSUITE, a NATO-certified, military-grade secure voice and messaging solution, protects sensitive conversations from interception and espionage targeting mobile communications.Photo Credit: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Malaysia.His Excellency Raja Saifful Ridzuwan Raja Kamaruddin, Head of SILA, said: "Around 80% of our inter-agency communications are secured - and some are highly confidential and directly tied to the safety of Heads of State and officials. With BlackBerry, we found an encrypted, open communications platform that protects sensitive information while improving coordination."John Giamatteo, CEO of BlackBerry, added: "As ASEAN Chair in 2025, Malaysia is setting a new standard for sovereign secure communications at scale. BlackBerry is honoured to support SILA and the Government of Malaysia with advanced, military-grade solutions that safeguard people, protect sensitive conversations, and keep complex operations moving in real time."Photo Credit: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Malaysia.During the 46th Summit, 100 liaison officers (LOs) used BlackBerry AtHoc to send secure, location-based alerts and manage coordination. The upcoming 47th Summit will expand to 150 LOs, all equipped with AtHoc and SecuSUITE on iOS and standard Android devices. This flexibility allows LOs to securely communicate with visiting delegations and foreign teams, reducing the number of devices needed while maintaining end-to-end encrypted voice and secure messaging from anywhere.BlackBerry AtHoc also enables mobile command-and-control, helping officials monitor movements, respond swiftly to weather or security incidents, and coordinate seamlessly across agencies such as the Royal Malaysian Police (PDRM) using validated, secure information."Five minutes can mean 50 missed messages," H.E. Raja Saifful added. "BlackBerry AtHoc streamlines how we communicate across agencies, while SecuSUITE encrypts voice instructions to prevent eavesdropping and leaks. For the 47th ASEAN Summit, we are expanding both solutions to deliver a safe, seamless, and highly coordinated event."The technology and standards deployed are comparable to those used during the 2018 and 2025 G7 Summits and Ministerial Meetings, where the Government of Canada's Summits Management Office under Global Affairs Canada relied on BlackBerry AtHoc for secure, integrated communication across multiple government departments-setting a benchmark for operational resilience and inter-agency collaboration.See the video here and blog here.

吉隆坡，馬來西亞, 2025年10月22日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - BlackBerry Limited（紐交所代碼：BB；多倫多證交所代碼：BB）今日宣布，馬來西亞已部署 BlackBerry® AtHoc® 與 BlackBerry® SecuSUITE®，以在2025年東盟峰會期間（包括5月舉行的第46屆東盟峰會，以及10月26日至28日在吉隆坡舉行的第47屆東盟峰會）確保通訊安全並保護人員安全。圖片來源: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Malaysia.東盟峰會是該區最為複雜的外交活動之一，涉及超過500場會議及數千名來自多個政府部門的人員。該活動由馬來西亞外交部透過東盟主要後勤秘書處（SILA）協調舉辦，聚集了東盟成員國以及來自美洲、歐洲、非洲及亞洲的主要合作夥伴之國家元首、部長與官員。圖片來源: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Malaysia.在第46屆峰會成功部署後，SILA 進一步擴大使用黑莓的安全通訊平台，以保護峰會指揮與控制作業，無論是在作業中心內或於行動過程中。隨著高級信號情報能力日益為惡意行為者所利用，保護行動通訊的安全比以往任何時候都更為重要。BlackBerry AtHoc 是一個關鍵事件管理平台，結合了安全的緊急通知與事件回應工具，使各部門之間能即時透過行動裝置協調。BlackBerry SecuSUITE 則是一款獲得北約認證的軍規級安全語音與訊息解決方案，能防止針對行動通訊的攔截與間諜活動。圖片來源: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Malaysia.東盟主要後勤秘書處（SILA）負責人Raja Saifful Ridzuwan Raja Kamaruddin 閣下表示：「我們約有80%的跨部門通訊受到保護，其中部分內容極為機密，直接關係到各國元首與官員的安全。有了黑莓，我們找到了一個加密且開放的通訊平台，既能保護敏感資訊，又能提升協調效率。」BlackBerry 執行長 John Giamatteo 補充表示：「作為 2025 年東盟輪值主席國，馬來西亞正為主權級安全通訊建立新的規範。BlackBerry 很榮幸能以先進的軍規級解決方案，協助 SILA 與馬來西亞政府保護人員安全、維護敏感對話的機密性，並確保複雜作業能即時順暢進行。」圖片來源: Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Malaysia.在第 46 屆峰會期間，共有 100 名聯絡官（LO）使用 BlackBerry AtHoc 傳送安全、基於地理位置的警報並進行協調管理。即將舉行的第 47 屆峰會將擴增至 150 名聯絡官，所有人皆配備安裝了 AtHoc 與 SecuSUITE 的 iOS 與標準 Android 裝置。這種靈活性讓聯絡官能安全地與來訪代表團及外國團隊溝通，減少所需裝置數量，同時確保從任何地點皆能進行端對端加密語音與安全訊息交流。BlackBerry AtHoc 亦支援行動指揮與控制，協助官員監控人員動態、迅速回應天候或安全事件，並透過經驗證的安全資訊，與如馬來西亞皇家警察（PDRM）等部門無縫協作。Raja Saifful 閣下補充說：「五分鐘的延誤可能意味著錯過五十條訊息。BlackBerry AtHoc 簡化了我們跨部門的溝通方式，而 SecuSUITE 則加密語音指令，以防止竊聽與外洩。為了第 47 屆東盟峰會，我們正在擴大這兩項解決方案的應用，以確保活動的安全、流暢與高度協調。」此次部署的技術與標準與 2018 及 2025 年 G7 峰會與部長級會議所採用者相當。當時加拿大政府全球事務部轄下的峰會管理辦公室使用 BlackBerry AtHoc 於多個政府部門間建立安全、整合的通訊機制，樹立了營運韌性與跨部門協作的標竿。更多資訊請瀏覽 BlackBerry.com 或關注 @BlackBerry。關於 BlackBerryBlackBerry（NYSE: BB；TSX: BB）為企業和政府提供支撐世界運行的智慧軟體與服務。總部位於加拿大安大略省滑鐵盧，BlackBerry 的高效能基礎軟體協助主要汽車製造商及工業巨頭實現應用變革、開創新營收模式並推出創新商業模式，同時確保安全性、可靠性與穩定性不受影響。 憑藉在安全通訊領域的深厚積澱，BlackBerry 提供全面、高度安全並經過嚴格認證的產品組合，涵蓋行動防護、關鍵任務通訊及重大事件管理，以確保業務持續運行與營運韌性。商標聲明：包括但不限於 BLACKBERRY 及 EMBLEM Design 及 QNX 及 QNX logo在內的商標均為 BlackBerry Limited 的商標或註冊商標，BlackBerry 明確保留其專有權利。所有其他商標均為其各自所有者的財產。 BlackBerry 不對任何第三方產品或服務負責。媒體聯絡:BlackBerry Media Relations+1 (519) 597-7273mediarelations@BlackBerry.com圖片來源:https://www.myasean2025.my/photos/ 來源: BlackBerry Limited Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

He believes clients should understand why they invest, not just where. His trademark line, repeated in countless client meetings, summarizes this mindset:"Education is the king. Don't ask yourself if this or if that choose this and that.

Chvaletice Manganese Project optimization program underway to enhance efficiency, reduce capital and operating costs, and position Europe's only high-purity manganese producer to meet rising EV, energy storage demand and defence applications.HighlightsGlobal demand for high-purity manganese continues to accelerate as electric vehicle batteries pivot to high manganese designs, stationary energy storage adoption expands and defence applications scale up.Euro Manganese's metal-route process validated as flexible and efficient pathway to supply both HPMSM and HPEMM feedstocks for evolving cathode chemistries.Demonstration Plant results underpin optimization workstreams targeting operating cost reductions, improved recoveries, and optimized capital expenditures.External engineering specialists engaged to identify Commercial Plant efficiency improvements and implement best-practice design refinements.Market report prepared by industry expert, Andrew Zemek at MarketEye, confirms that Euro Manganese's metal-route is the most flexible way of future-proofing the output of the Chvaletice Commercial Plant in the context of changing demand for the manganese feedstock mix for high-manganese batteries.Optimization outcomes expected to inform next-phase development plans and potential updated technical studies.Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - October 20, 2025) - Euro Manganese Inc. (TSXV: EMN) (ASX: EMN) (FSE: E060) (the "Company" or "Euro Manganese") is pleased to provide an update as it continues to advance its Chvaletice Manganese Project ("Chvaletice") in the Czech Republic toward commercialization. The update reflects ongoing efforts to align project execution and development priorities with evolving market conditions and learnings from the operation of the Demonstration Plant.President & CEO, Martina Blahova, commented: "With our Demonstration Plant having validated the Chvaletice process and product quality, our focus has shifted to translating these learnings into commercial-scale efficiencies. Our focus on recovery and costs aims to achieve meaningful improvements in unit operating costs and capital intensities. We see sustained demand for high-purity manganese across both lithium-ion and sodium-ion chemistries, and Euro Manganese is working to respond to this critical need."Global Market Outlook and Company StrategyGlobal demand for high-purity manganese continues to strengthen as electric-vehicle ("EV") and energy storage markets expand and diversify. Manganese-rich cathode chemistries are gaining traction for both lithium-ion and emerging sodium-ion batteries due to their cost, performance and safety advantages. Independent forecasts anticipate significant supply shortfalls post-2027, underscoring the need for secure, low-carbon sources outside of China.1Euro Manganese's strategy - to establish a fully traceable European supply of high-purity manganese feedstocks remains well-founded. The Company's Chvaletice Project offers a unique combination of proven technology, circular production from recycled tailings, and alignment with Europe's strategic autonomy and energy-transition goals, working towards supplying the EV, energy-storage, defence, and speciality-alloy sectors.Validation of Metal-Route OptionalityA report prepared by Andrew Zemek at Marketeye, (September 2025)2 and paid for by Euro Manganese confirms that Euro Manganese's metal-route process is the most flexible way of future-proofing the output of the Chvaletice Commercial Plant in the context of changing demand for the manganese feedstock mix for high-manganese batteries. The process provides strategic optionality to produce high-purity electrolytic manganese metal ("HPEMM") and/or high-purity manganese sulphate monohydrate ("HPMSM"). This dual-route capability positions the Company to respond dynamically to future shifts in cathode chemistries and customer requirements. HPMSM remains the dominant feedstock for cathode chemistries, however new materials such as manganese oxide (Mn₃O₄) and manganese carbonate (MnCO₃) have emerged. These alternative manganese feedstocks can be produced from HPEMM.EMN's Chairman, Rick Anthon, commented:"Euro Manganese's strategic advantage lies in its combination of strong project fundamentals, proven flowsheet, and alignment with Europe's decarbonisation and economic security goals. The optimization program aims to ensure we maintain our competitive edge and build on our first mover advantage in Europe with a goal of reducing costs and maximising value for shareholders, while delivering a sustainable source of high-purity manganese for the battery market and other strategic sectors."Optimization and Efficiency ProgramFollowing the successful operation of its Demonstration Plant, Euro Manganese has initiated an optimization program to incorporate operational learnings into design of the Commercial Plant. Key workstreams include exploring:Improved recoveries and metallurgical balancing;Optimized equipment-sizing and layout;Reduced reagent and consumables use; andEnhanced process control.The Company has engaged external engineering specialists, including a large engineering firm, to conduct independent reviews and recommend efficiency upgrades. This structured, best-practice approach mirrors successful programs across the battery and mining sectors that have delivered lower capital intensity and stronger commercial and sustainability outcomes for other companies.Next Steps and OutlookThe outcomes of the optimization program will guide Euro Manganese's next phase of development, including any potential updates to technical studies.The Company remains confident that its strategic focus on producing high-purity manganese feedstocks, supported by continued engineering discipline and process improvements, positions it to capitalize on the forecasted supply deficit and growing demand for manganese-rich battery materials. The Chvaletice Project's fundamentals as a fully traceable, low-carbon, European source of high-purity manganese remains robust.About Euro ManganeseEuro Manganese Inc. (TSXV: EMN) (ASX: EMN) (FSE: E060) is a battery materials company developing the Chvaletice Manganese Project in the Czech Republic, Europe's only near-term source of high-purity manganese, a critical ingredient in next-generation electric vehicles, energy storage batteries and defence applications.The Chvaletice Manganese Project will reprocess historic mine tailings to produce high-purity electrolytic manganese metal (HPEMM), and high-purity manganese sulphate monohydrate (HPMSM), establishing a fully traceable, low-carbon supply chain within the European Union.With its Demonstration Plant having produced on-spec products and optimization work underway to enhance commercial plant efficiency, Euro Manganese is positioned to become Europe's first domestic producer of high-purity manganese, meeting the rising demand for sustainable, strategic battery materials while advancing Europe's clean-energy and supply-chain independence goals.Euro Manganese is dual listed on the TSX-V and the ASX.Authorized for release by the President and CEO of Euro Manganese Inc.Neither TSX-V nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX-V) or the ASX accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.EnquiriesLodeRock AdvisorsNeil WeberInvestor and Media Relations - North America+1 (647) 222-0574neil.weber@loderockadvisors.comJane Morgan ManagementJane MorganInvestor and Media Relations - Australia+61 (0) 405 555 618jm@janemorganmanagement.com.auMartina BlahovaPresident and CEO+1 (604) 681-1010Company Address: #709 -700 West Pender St., Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 1G8Website: www.mn25.caFollow us on: LinkedIn | X | YouTubeClick Here to Subscribe to our mailing list for updatesForward-Looking Statements Certain statements in this news release constitute "forward-looking statements" or "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable securities laws.

BANGKOK, Oct 20, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - ATOMIX TECHNOLOGY PTE. LTD., a fast-growing provider of intelligent intralogistics and automation solutions, made an impactful debut in Thailand at LogiMAT Southeast Asia 2025. This marks a major milestone in ATOMIX’s global journey — the company’s first-ever appearance in the Thai market — where it showcased its “1 Software + 4 Atoms” integrated solution, demonstrated its flagship pallet shuttle system and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), and engaged deeply with local industry leaders to understand the market landscape and validate logistics demand in Thailand.Expanding Horizons: First Step into the Thai MarketThailand’s logistics sector is undergoing rapid transformation, driven by e-commerce growth, industrial automation, and increased cross-border trade. For ATOMIX TECHNOLOGY, entering this market is a strategic step in its Southeast Asian expansion plan. Participating in LogiMAT Southeast Asia was not only about showcasing technologies — it was about listening, learning, and validating the needs of Thai businesses to deliver better, more tailored solutions in the future.“This event is not just an exhibition for us — it’s a discovery mission,” said Jenny Lu of ATOMIX. “We came here to understand how the Thai logistics industry is evolving, what challenges companies are facing, and how our technologies can be adapted to meet those specific needs. Our goal is to grow with the market, not just enter it.”“1 Software + 4 Atoms”: The Future of Flexible IntralogisticsAt the heart of ATOMIX’s vision is its innovative “1 Software + 4 Atoms” strategy — a modular and scalable approach to intralogistics automation designed to help businesses build flexible, future-proof operations.I. Software – A powerful central platform that integrates warehouse control, fleet management, data analytics, and automation orchestration into a single intelligent system.II．4 Atoms – ATOMIX’s four core hardware modules: pallet shuttle, pallet AMR, Bin Shuttle, and Bin AMR, which can operate independently or as part of a fully connected ecosystem.This modular philosophy enables customers to start small and scale over time, adapting to changing operational demands without costly overhauls. It also reflects ATOMIX’s broader philosophy: flexibility is the foundation of future logistics.“Our ‘1 Software + 4 Atoms’ approach gives customers the freedom to design solutions that fit their exact needs,” explained Jenny Lu. “It’s not a one-size-fits-all model — it’s about combining components intelligently to create value, whether for a small warehouse or a large-scale distribution center.”Showcasing Core Solutions: Pallet Shuttle & AMRDuring LogiMAT Southeast Asia, ATOMIX drew strong attention with its flagship automation solutions — the pallet shuttle system and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) — two key “atoms” in its ecosystem.Pallet Shuttle System – Efficiency and Space OptimizationThe pallet shuttle system is a high-density storage and retrieval solution that uses intelligent shuttles to transport pallets within racking systems. By eliminating the need for traditional forklifts in dense storage areas, the system increases storage capacity, reduces handling time, and improves safety.Key benefits include:1)Higher storage density – Up to 80% better space utilization.2)Improved throughput – Rapid pallet movement and reduced cycle times.3)Enhanced safety and reliability – Less human intervention, fewer risks.4) Seamless scalability – Easily integrated and expandable.Attendees were particularly interested in how the pallet shuttle can be combined with AMRs and AS/RS to build end-to-end, automated material flow systems tailored to their warehouse layouts.Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) – Mobility Meets IntelligenceATOMIX’s AMRs are designed for dynamic, intelligent material transport within facilities. Equipped with advanced sensors and AI navigation, they autonomously move goods, plan routes, and adapt to real-time conditions without fixed infrastructure.Key capabilities include:1)Adaptive navigation – Safe and efficient movement in complex environments.2)System integration – Works seamlessly with shuttles, conveyors, and warehouse management systems.3)Labor optimization – Reduces manual handling and increases workforce productivity.4)Fleet scalability – Centralized management for coordinated robot fleets.Together, these solutions demonstrate how ATOMIX’s modular approach can deliver complete, flexible automation ecosystems.Focus on Learning, Collaboration, and Market ValidationWhile technology demonstrations were a major part of ATOMIX’s presence, the company’s primary goal at LogiMAT Southeast Asia was to engage deeply with the Thai logistics ecosystem — from warehouse operators and retailers to system integrators and manufacturing companies.Through discussions, workshops, and networking sessions, ATOMIX’s team gained valuable insights into local operational challenges, such as:1)The growing demand for automation in medium-sized warehouses.2)Increasing emphasis on cold-chain logistics and temperature-controlled solutions.3)Rising interest in scalable, modular systems that evolve with business needs.“These conversations are shaping our strategy,” said [Spokesperson Name]. “Instead of just bringing products to the market, we want to co-develop solutions with local partners. This approach ensures we’re addressing real challenges and delivering measurable value.”Looking Ahead: Building the Future of Logistics in Southeast AsiaATOMIX’s debut at LogiMAT Southeast Asia marks the beginning of a long-term commitment to Thailand and the broader Southeast Asian region. The company plans to strengthen local partnerships, expand technical support and service capabilities, and co-create solutions with customers and integrators in the region.“Our participation here is about more than brand visibility — it’s about building trust, understanding the market, and preparing for sustainable growth,” said Jenny Lu. “We believe Thailand will play a crucial role in the future of intralogistics in Asia, and we’re here to be part of that story.”About ATOMIX TECHNOLOGY PTE. LTD.ATOMIX TECHNOLOGY PTE. LTD. is a Singapore-based technology company specializing in intelligent intralogistics solutions.
