The four-day concurrent events attracted some 60,000 industry buyers from 142 countries and regions. The number of buyers from Spain, Japan, Brazil and Australia increased on last year, reflecting the status of the fairs as important sourcing platforms for the industry, helping exhibitors expand their international markets and yielding positive business results.In last month’s Policy Address, the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region proposed promoting artificial intelligence (AI) as a core industry for the city’s development. Aligning with this direction, this year’s Autumn Electronics Fair focused on three major areas: AI and Robotics Technology, Digital Entertainment, and the Silver Economy. The fair featured multiple themed zones and professional forums, allowing industry players to showcase innovations and exchange ideas on technology applications, and leveraging Hong Kong’s role as an international business platform to help enterprises seize emerging global opportunities.Jenny Koo, Deputy Executive Director of the HKTDC, said: “Amid the recent unstable global trade environment, the HKTDC has been proactively helping companies with business transformation and injecting momentum into new market exploration. As a stage for showcasing the latest electronic products and innovations, the Autumn Electronics Fair and electronicAsia serve as important platforms for exhibitors to connect and explore collaborations. This year’s fairs welcomed leading Chinese Mainland tech companies from various sectors to present the latest AI and robotics technologies. Using Hong Kong as a springboard to ‘go global’, we have been pleased to see both local and mainland enterprises making successful connections with quality international buyers through the two fairs, further reinforcing Hong Kong’s role as a bridge to the global market.”In late October, the HKTDC will continue to create cross-industry business opportunities by hosting the Hong Kong International Lighting Fair (Autumn Edition), Hong Kong International Outdoor and Tech Light Expo and ECO Expo Asia, Ms Koo added.Survey reveals 44% of industry insiders are exploring or applying Generative AIAn independent survey agency commissioned by the HKTDC interviewed 1,092 buyers and exhibitors at the Electronics Fair and asked for their views on growth prospects for the industry. 51% of respondents said they expect overall sales to increase in the next 12 to 24 months.Respondents rated the Middle East (77%), Korea (70%), India (69%) and ASEAN countries (69%) as having very promising or promising growth prospects for products in their target markets in the next two years, while 44% of those surveyed said they have ventured into the exploration or integration of Generative AI technology, with the areas of product design and development (60%), customer service and support (40%) and marketing and advertising (35%) being the most common.New product launches at Electronics Fair – a starting point for “going global”This year’s Autumn Electronics Fair and electronicAsia attracted more than 3,200 exhibitors from 20 countries and regions around the world. The HKTDC organised 120 buyer delegations from 61 countries and regions to attend the fairs – including renowned global corporations such as Mondial from Brazil, Reichelt Elektronik GmbH from Germany, and Dewalt Mobile Solutions from the United States – highlighting Hong Kong’s strong appeal as an international convention and exhibition hub.Staying true to its theme, “World’s Leading Electronics Marketplace”, the fair provided a platform for global exhibitors to showcase their latest electronic products, innovation concepts and applications. These included robotics products from leading mainland tech enterprises such as Deep Robotics and BrainCo from “Hangzhou’s Six Little Dragons” in addition to DIGIT, PaXini and LimX from “Shenzhen’s Eight Great Guardians of Embodied Intelligence”.Robotics technologies were demonstrated across various scenarios. For example, exhibitor Ascentiz launched its world's first modular exoskeleton at the fair that has been designed to enhance mobility for the elderly and people with physical impairments, contributing to the silver economy. The fair also introduced a new RoboPark activity zone, hosting over 30 live robot demonstrations and featuring presentations from renowned robotics companies such as Unitree Robotics and Booster Robotics.Several local start-ups and technology companies have stated that they successfully showcased their innovative achievements, launched new products, and connected with potential investors and overseas buyers at the fair.SOTA Robotics, launched and demonstrated its humanoid performing robot CURI Gen2 at RoboPark. Jacky Fan, Robotics Engineer at the startup said: “The newly established RoboPark provided a stage to demonstrate our capabilities to the industry. We successfully established direct contact with potential investors from several countries and regions such as the United Kingdom, Pakistan and the Chinese Mainland.”Well-known enterprises from the Chinese Mainland used the fairs as a platform to develop global business opportunities. Xiangru Nie, Co-founder of PaXini Technology, one of the “Shenzhen’s Eight Great Guardians of Embodied Intelligence” said: “Through the fair we have seen greater possibilities in technological globalisation. We are leveraging Hong Kong's international network to accelerate the implementation of our technologies in areas such as high-end manufacturing in Europe and the United States, and smart services in Southeast Asia.” He added that through the fair, the company had not only secured procurement intentions with robotics companies from Southeast Asian countries such as Singapore and the Philippines but also attracted significant attention from high-end manufacturing sectors in Europe and the United States, including Germany and the United Kingdom. He said this engagement with dozens of high-quality potential clients had led to the total value of intended orders expected to exceed tens of millions of renminbi – far ahead of his initial expectations.Elijah Yu, International Sales Manager of Shanghai Hi-dolphin Robot Technology Co., Ltd, mentioned that the fairs played a crucial role as a springboard for mainland companies to reach overseas customers: “We met a client from Turkey at the fair who placed an onsite order for 10 COFE+ Robot Coffee Kiosks, totalling US$450,000. Additionally, we engaged in productive discussions with potential buyers from Thailand, the United States and other regions, successfully establishing 200 promising leads.”Overseas exhibitors came to participate in the fair in Hong Kong to explore business opportunities in the Asian market. Michael Obrecht, Director of Siborg Systems Inc, a provider of precision electronic measurement tools from Canada said: “Participating in electronicAsia, we were able to spot and explore new opportunities in reaching a broader international audience, especially in Asia. The fair allowed us to connect with potential buyers from at least eight different countries and regions, such as Brazil, Canada, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan and Russia.”Global buyers source new products with strong interest from emerging marketsMany high-tech companies were actively sourcing at the fair. Hanafiah Yussof, Founder & CEO of Robopreneur Sdn. Bhd., a service robotics company based in Malaysia, said the fair is keeping pace with the latest industry developments, and he had already seen several suppliers for robots with embedded AI. He had met suppliers from the mainland, Europe and Japan and expected to spend around US$2 million annually.Neelesh Bhatia, CEO of Alraja Trading FZC LLC from the United Arab Emirates, visited the fair to source a range of electronic products, including automotive touch panels, audio systems and beauty devices. He believed that the fair’s strategic location had been crucial in connecting the company with manufacturers from the mainland. His projected purchasing budget is around US$300,000 for this cycle, with the potential to reach up to US$1.5 million annually once partnerships grow.Seminars foster exchange, collaboration and business expansionOver the course of the exhibitions, the organiser hosted more than 100 engaging activities, forums and robot showcases, including the 10th Symposium on Innovation and Technology, the Hong Kong Electronic Forum and the AI-Powered Monitoring and Smart Inspection in Construction seminar.

Radisson Expands Ongoing Step-Out Drill Program at O’Brien to 140,000 Metres ACN Newswire

Radisson Expands Ongoing Step-Out Drill Program at O’Brien to 140,000 Metres

Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - October 16, 2025) - Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSXV: RDS) (OTCQB: RMRDF) (FSE: 2RX) ("Radisson" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it will expand the ongoing step-out exploration drill program at the O'Brien Gold Project ("O'Brien" or the "Project") to 140,000 metres utilizing up to eight drill rigs. The expanded program aims to build upon recent successes in delineating new high-grade gold mineralization outside the scope of the Project's current Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE"). This will be the largest drill program in the history of the Project.Matt Manson, President & CEO, commented: "Following the recent completion of our very successful $25 million financing (see Radisson news release dated October 7, 2025), we are announcing a major increase in scope and ambition to our exploration drill program at O'Brien. Since late last year we have been demonstrating significant new gold mineralization in "proof-of-concept" drilling beneath the current mineral resources and below the historic mine workings (Figure 1). Our Exploration Target at O'Brien is between 3 and 4 million ounces of gold in 15 to 20 million tonnes at between 4.5 and 8.0 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold ("Au")1. This is based on the proposition that O'Brien's mesothermal gold mineralization continues to an exploration horizon of at least 2 kilometres depth. With recent results supporting this thesis, we now intend to accelerate our efforts with a view to meaningful resource growth at the Project. The new expanded program of 140,000 metres will continue through 2026 with up to 8 drill rigs, generating significant new data, updates to the Project's MRE, and regular news flow."Matt Manson continued: "The recently completed O'Brien Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") describes a high value project based on the use of neighbouring milling facilities for the processing of mined material, reducing capital costs, development risk, and project footprint (see Radisson news release dated July 9, 2025). It also represents a moment-in-time "snap-shot" for the Project utilizing the pre-existing MRE, which is located primarily at depths above 600 metres and based on drilling completed to the end of 2022. Our objective by the end of this new and aggressive drill program will be to demonstrate full potential scope of the Project." Step-Out Drilling at O'BrienSince late 2024, Radisson has been pursuing a program of broad step-outs beneath the historic O'Brien Gold mine and the existing mineral resources designed to test the full scope of mineralization at the Project to a 2-kilometre deep exploration floor. This drilling is accomplished with pilot holes followed by wedges and directional drilling to maximize drill efficiency. The first pilot hole drilled beneath the historic mine workings of the O'Brien mine intersected 31.24 g/t Au over 8.0 metres, including 242.0 g/t Au over 1.0 metre at approximately 1,500 metres vertical depth, 500 metres below the final mining stope.Figure 1: Long Section of Gold Vein Mineralization and Mineral Resources at the O'Brien Gold Project, with Deep Step-Out Drill Holes Completed and/or Published to Date. To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/270643_d9c3a9f0f4fee970_002full.jpgAssay results from 7 wedges from this pilot holes have now been reported (see Radisson news release dated July 16, 2025) and up to six high-grade, gold-bearing veins have been delineated over an area of approximately 250 metres (east-west) by 250 metres (vertical). Assay results from additional wedges are expected shortly. Step-out drilling with wedge extensions has also confirmed high-grade mineralization 170 metres below the base of the existing mineral resources at Trend #1 and up to 300 metres below previous drill intercepts at Trend #2 (see Radisson news release dated September 8, 2025).By the end of 2025, Radisson expects to have completed approximately 35,000 metres of a 50-60,000 metre drill program originally announced in May 2025 (see Radisson news release dated May 21, 2025). With the new drilling announced today, the total meters drilled in this ongoing step-out program will increase to 140,000 metres. This will incorporate an expansion of site facilities and personnel to support up to 8 drill rigs from the current four. These rigs have already been secured under the terms of engagement with our existing drill contractor. The first additional drill rig has been mobilized to site, with drilling expected to start prior to the end of this month.Targeting priorities will be developed dynamically based on results, but will include: (a) multiple pilot-holes and wedge clusters beneath the historic mine to 2 kilometres depth, (b) pilot holes and wedges testing the deep extensions of Trends #0, #1 and #2, (c) testing for mineralization between Trends #1 and #2, and (d) testing the extension of gold mineralization beneath the historic Thompson-Cadillac mine located west of the O'Brien Mine.Updated Mineral Resource EstimatesThe MRE utilized in the recent O'Brien PEA comprises Indicated Mineral Resources of 0.58 million ounces (2.20 million tonnes at 8.2 g/t Au) and Inferred Mineral Resources of 0.93 million ounces (6.67 million tonnes at 4.4 g/t Au). Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. This MRE, effective as of May 6, 2025, is based on 325,509 metres of drilling completed to the end of 2022. By the end of the currently scheduled drill program a significant amount of new drilling will have been completed, the larger part being outside the scope of the current MRE and recent PEA mine design. This is expected to merit multiple updates to the O'Brien MRE as the drilling progresses.Gold Mineralization at O'BrienGold mineralizing quartz-sulphide veins at O'Brien occur within a thin band of interlayered mafic volcanic rocks, conglomerates, and porphyritic andesitic sills of the Piché Group occurring in contact with the east-west oriented Larder Lake-Cadillac Break ("LLCB"). Gold, along with pyrite and arsenopyrite, is typically associated with shearing and a pervasive biotite alteration, and developed within multiple Piché Group lithologies and, occasionally, the hanging-wall Pontiac and footwall Cadillac meta-sedimentary rocks.As mapped at the historic O'Brien mine, and now replicated in the modern drilling, individual veins are generally narrow, ranging from several centimetres up to the metre-scale in thickness. Multiple veins occur sub-parallel to each other, as well as sub-parallel to the Piché lithologies and the LLCB. Individual veins have well-established lateral continuity, with near-vertical, high-grade shoots developed over significant lengths. Based on the historic data available, it is clear that the former mine was "high-graded", with mining focussed on a main central stope and parallel veins identified but left undeveloped.The historic O'Brien mine produced over half a million ounces of gold from such veins and shoots at an average grade exceeding 15 g/t Au and over a vertical extent of at least 1,000 metres. Modern exploration has focussed on delineating well developed vein mineralization to the east of the historic mine, with additional high-grade shoots becoming evident in the exploration data over what has been described as a series of repeating trends ("Trend #s 0 to 5").Qualified Persons Disclosure of a scientific or technical nature in this news release was prepared under the supervision of Mr. Richard Nieminen, P.Geo, (QC), a geological consultant for Radisson and a Qualified Person for purposes of NI 43-101. Mr. Luke Evans, M.Sc., P.Eng., ing, of SLR Consulting (Canada) Ltd., is the Qualified Person responsible for the preparation of the MRE at O'Brien. Each of Mr. Nieminen and Mr. Evans is independent of Radisson and the O'Brien Gold Project.About Radisson MiningRadisson is a gold exploration company focused on its 100% owned O'Brien Gold Project, located in the Bousquet-Cadillac mining camp along the world-renowned Larder-Lake-Cadillac Break in Abitibi, Québec. A July 2025 Preliminary Economic Assessment described a low cost and high value project with an 11-year mine life and significant upside potential based on the use of existing regional infrastructure. Indicated Mineral Resources are estimated at 0.58 million ounces (2.20 million tonnes at 8.2 g/t Au), with additional Inferred Mineral Resources estimated at 0.93 million ounces (6.67 million tonnes at 4.4 g/t Au).

How DPC Dash-Domino’s Pizza China Is Capturing China’s Pizza Market

HONG KONG, Oct 16, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - In China's dynamic and rapidly expanding pizza market, DPC Dash Ltd - Domino’s Pizza China (1405.HK), Domino's Pizza's exclusive master franchisee in the Chinese Mainland, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of China, and the Macau Special Administrative Region of China—has established a sustainable growth strategy suited to varying economic conditions. By integrating continuous menu innovation with strategic value pricing, the company has expanded its footprint to 1,283 stores across 51 cities in the Chinese Mainland as of September 30, 2025.Scale as Strategic AdvantageBeing a market leader creates a virtuous cycle. DPC Dash opened 275 net new stores and entered 12 new cities as of the third quarter of 2025. Management expects to open approximately 300 stores in 2025, supported by a secured pipeline that represents approximately 100% of the 2025 target including the stores opened, under construction and signed. With China's pizza market expected to reach RMB 77.1 billion by 2027, the runway for expansion remains substantial.Same-store sales growth (SSSG) at the Group level and in Tier-1 cities was positive as of September 30, 2025, reflecting resilient performance and brand recognition in highly competitive markets. The company holds 49 of the top 50 positions globally for first 30-day sales performance, with new stores continuously breaking records. The first Shenyang location surpassed RMB 31 million in annual sales in just 198 days of operation. The first store in Xuzhou generated over RMB 680,000 for the grand opening day, setting a new global record.Scale enables DPC Dash to invest in menu development and testing, maintain brand visibility through sustained marketing, and weather volatility through diverse revenue streams. The company's advanced digital infrastructure further amplifies these advantages.Strategic Emphasis on ValueWhile menu novelty attracts attention, value pricing drives traffic—especially in periods of moderated consumer spending. DPC Dash has effectively positioned itself in the affordable quick-service dining segment through its three pricing tiers, targeted promotions, bundled deals, and campaigns that resonate with the preferences of value-conscious consumers in China.Financial performance reinforces this approach. In the first half of 2025, DPC Dash generated RMB 2.59 billion in revenue while improving profitability metrics across the board. Store-level operating profit margin reached 14.6%, and adjusted EBITDA margin hit 12.4%—demonstrating that a value-led approach does not preclude strong margins when supported by operational discipline.This emphasis on affordability creates a countercyclical shield. When economic conditions soften, consumers trading down from more expensive dining options turn to affordable quick-service brands. The company’s scale and operational efficiencies enable it to maintain attractive pricing, allowing DPC Dash to gain market share during challenging cycles.Menu Innovation Aligned with Local TastesValue alone is not sufficient to secure long-term loyalty. DPC Dash complements its pricing strategy with continuous menu innovation tailored to local preferences. The company's localization efforts go far beyond standard offerings: durian pizzas featuring Dubai chocolate and rambutan, and creative products like the "Cocoa & Cheese Stuffed Crust" with Malaysian cocoa powder and French cheese sauce.Such localization allows DPC Dash to compete effectively by understanding domestic preferences. Balancing global brand standards with local relevance has helped the company grow its loyalty program membership to 32.9 million members, an increase of more than 50% year-over-year as of September 30, 2025. Insights drawn from the program inform more targeted product development and promotional strategies.Menu variety serves multiple strategic purposes: it drives repeat visits among existing customers, attracts different demographic segments, and creates reasons to order more frequently. New product introductions help maintain customer engagement and expand the brand’s reach to a broader audience.The proven formula of scalable store expansion, strategic value pricing, and data-driven menu localization validates the strength of DPC Dash's business model. This approach fuels robust financial performance and record-breaking store openings, creating a durable competitive advantage. As the market continues to grow, DPC Dash is exceptionally well-positioned to deliver sustainable long-term value and market leadership. Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

In 2024, SERES achieved revenue of RMB145.1 billion, representing a year-on-year increase of 305.5%. Concurrently, driven by optimized product mix, the Company's gross profit margin significantly improved to 23.8% in 2024, up 16.6 percentage points year-on-year, and increased to 26.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2025. This enhanced profitability directly propelled the Company toward a pivotal turning point. In 2024 and for the six months ended June 30, 2025, SERES recorded a net profit attributable to owners of the Company of RMB5.9 billion and RMB2.9 billion, respectively. This achievement positions SERES as the fourth profit-making new energy vehicle company in the world.From an industry perspective, China's premium new energy vehicle segment is entering a phase of rapid volume growth. According to Frost & Sullivan, in 2024, the sales volume of premium NEPVs reached 2.6 million units, accounting for 23.4% of the total NEPV market in China. The sales volume is expected to reach 5.7 million units by 2030, with market share rising to 29.8%, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.0% from 2024 to 2030.SERES is building long-term competitive barriers through clear brand positioning and leading technological capabilities. Centered on its AITO brand, the Company continues to deepen its intelligent and luxury vehicle strategy, achieving simultaneous growth in market share and profitability. Moving forward, as the Hong Kong listing process advances, SERES will further broaden its access to international capital, accelerate its global expansion, and inject fresh momentum into brand internationalization and long-term value growth.

Standard Chartered GBA Business Confidence Indices rise to multi-year high levels ACN Newswire

Standard Chartered GBA Business Confidence Indices rise to multi-year high levels

HONG KONG, Oct 15, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Standard Chartered and the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) jointly released the latest Standard Chartered Greater Bay Area Business Confidence Index (GBAI). The latest quarterly survey showed a broad-based recovery in business confidence in the third quarter towards current business performance and business outlook, likely supported by reduced external uncertainty following the extension of the US-China trade truce. The Q3 GBAI indices rose to multi-year high levels. The “current performance” index for business activities edged up to 54.7 from 53.1 in Q2, while the “expectations” index rose to 55.7 from 52 in Q2, marking a four-year and two-year high respectively.During the survey period of early August to early September, though the US’ reciprocal tariffs came into effect, the US extended the trade truce with China by another 90 days to November and reached multiple trade agreements with major trading partners.Amid the constructive dialogue between China and the US, the tariff uncertainty diminished and the overall external environment became relatively stable, supporting a quarter-on-quarter recovery in business sentiment.Almost all the “current performance” and “expectations” sub-indices rebounded. For “current performance”, six of the eight index components saw quarter-on-quarter improvement, led by a sharp 8pts increase in “new orders” (57.5 in Q3 from 49.5 in Q2) and 4.1pts increase in “prices of finished goods/services” (58.8 in Q3 from 54.7 in Q2).The positivism in business outlook was more noticeable with all “expectations” sub-indices staying well above the neutral mark. “Production/sales” saw the strongest rebound (+5.3pts) among the eight main sub-indices, followed by “financing scale” (+4.8pts), “fixed asset investment” (+4.2pts) and “profit” (+3.9pts).Irina Fan, Director of Research, HKTDC, said: “Across GBA cities, nearly all ‘current performance’ and ‘expectations’ rose quarter-on-quarter. In particular, Hong Kong saw the strongest rise in confidence among all cities, with the ‘current performance’ and ‘expectations’ sub-indices edging up a respective 8.3 pts and 7.3 pts to 52.2 and 53.6 in the quarter, underpinned by the continued trade frontloading and robust financial activities.”Hunter Chan, Economist, Greater China, Standard Chartered, said: “The survey findings are in line with the positivism we have seen across the markets in the third quarter following the extension of US-China trade truce and expectation of continued dialogue between the two countries during the survey period. However, the persisted trade uncertainty may hold back the business sentiment again. With increasing external uncertainties and the competition challenges in the Chinese Mainland, we believe the trend of diversification will continue. It is consistent with the findings that exploring overseas markets (24.5%) remains one of the strategies that GBA corporates are adopting to mitigate the potential risks.”On the other hand, there has been increasing discussion and concern on “anti-involution”. The survey also examined the impact of excessive competition among businesses and how GBA companies tackle those challenges.Most of the respondents (63.5%) indicated that they had not been affected by excessive domestic competition, while 3.1% of respondents said they benefited from it. About 29% reported a moderate impact and the remaining 5% indicated a significant impact.Among those businesses affected by involution, over 70% saw a negative impact on profit and sales, while only around 40% indicated disruptions to hiring and investment.The companies appear to be adopting multiple strategies to address the challenges from involution, including brand building and marketing (36.3%), cost control / inventory management (35.6%) and providing value-added services (29.7%).About the GBAIThe GBAI is the first forward-looking quarterly survey in the market that looks at the business sentiment and synergistic effects in cities and industries across the GBA. It is compiled based on a survey of more than 1,000 companies in the GBA covering the manufacturing and trading, retail and wholesale, financial services, professional services and innovation and technology sectors. The index enables investors and businesses to better understand the current business climate, gauge future performance prospects and formulate their market strategies for the GBA.Related materialsHKTDC Research: https://research.hktdc.com/en/article/MjE0MTkwOTU3MAReport and photos download: http://bit.ly/4oiGQDUHunter Chan (left), Economist, Greater China, Standard Chartered, and Irina Fan (right), Director of Research, HKTDC, announced the latest GBA Business Confidence Index (GBAI) on 15 October 2025.
