Datavault AI and Kings Mine Capital Agree to Establish $150 Million+ GoldVault(TM) Tokenization Program

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Apr 30, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Datavault AI Inc. ("Datavault AI" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:DVLT), a provider of data monetization, credentialing, digital engagement, and real-world asset ("RWA") tokenization technologies, and King Mining Capital ("King Mining Capital") today announced that they have entered into a agreement for a multi-component strategic transaction that will combine a Datavault AI equity investment in King Mining Capital, a Datavault AI stock-funded purchase of 20,000 ounces of physical gold bullion, and the launch of a $150 million-plus GoldVault™ tokenization program backed by King Mining Capital's high-grade gold resources.Direct Equity, Physical Bullion, and Stock-Funded ConsiderationSubject to entering into a definitive agreement with King Mining Capital, Datavault AI plans to receive a 5% equity interest in King Mining Capital at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the agreement, together with a warrant to acquire an additional 5% equity interest in King Mining Capital upon completion of the GoldVault™ tokenization program. Datavault AI anticipates it will also have the right to acquire 20,000 ounces of physical gold bullion from King Mining Capital for delivery within 24 months [of signing of a definitive agreement], payable in Datavault AI common stock at a 30% discount to prevailing market gold prices. Based on current spot pricing and Datavault AI's internal analysis, the bullion acquisition is projected to generate approximately $40 million in profit.[1] The structure aligns Datavault AI directly with the long-term performance of King Mining Capital's underlying mineral assets while expanding the Company's strategic balance-sheet exposure to U.S.-aligned precious metals.$150 Million+ GoldVault™ Tokenization ProgramThe GoldVault™ program will deploy Datavault AI's patented Information Data Exchange®, DataScore®, and DataValue® blockchain platform to mint $150 million or more in digital tokens, each representing pro-rata digital ownership in premium in-ground and refined gold assets with strong American mining ties. Pricing will track the COMEX gold benchmark on a per-ounce basis. Tokens will be initially issued at a discount to prevailing spot gold market valuations, providing holders with a built-in value margin at issuance. Token holders will additionally participate in a royalty stream tied to ongoing King Mining Capital's production, generating recurring economic upside beyond underlying metal price appreciation. The program is targeted for launch by the third quarter of fiscal 2026, making tokenized American-aligned gold accessible to global investors.Executive StatementsNathaniel T. Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI, said, "This King Mining Capital transaction is the most fully integrated RWA structure Datavault AI has executed to date. We are taking a direct equity position in the miner, locking in 20,000 ounces of physical bullion at a meaningful discount to spot, and giving GoldVault™ token holders a royalty stream tied to actual production. That alignment between issuer, miner, and investor is what positions our patented platform as the model for compliant tokenization of strategic natural resources."Jeffrey Katz, Managing Principal of King Mining Capital LLC, added, "Partnering with Datavault AI is a game-changer for King Mining Capital. It validates our high-quality gold assets, provides immediate access to global digital capital markets, and creates exciting new liquidity and upside for our stakeholders. Together, we're advancing production and development plans that will deliver real value from these exceptional resources while embracing the future of tokenized mining assets."Platform ArchitectureIt is anticipated that the tokenized assets will utilize Datavault AI's proprietary smart-contract technology for ownership verification, AI-driven valuation, and revenue participation rights linked to future commercial gold production.Market OpportunityGold is in a powerful structural bull market. Central banks continue aggressive accumulation as a hedge against currency diversification and geopolitical risk, while investor demand surges amid economic uncertainty. Mine supply remains constrained and slow to respond, with global production growth expected to stay modest in 2026. Analysts project gold prices could reach $4,900-$5,500/oz by year-end 2026 (perJ.P. Morgan Global Research, December 2025), driven by sustained official sector buying (potentially 800+ tonnes annually) and robust investment flows (perWorld Gold Council, Gold Demand Trends Full Year 2025). Tokenizing high-quality gold resources positions investors at the intersection of physical scarcity and digital liquidity.Expanding Strategic Minerals Tokenization PortfolioThe King Mining Capital transaction marks the latest high-impact milestone in Datavault AI's rapid expansion into tokenized critical minerals and precious metals. It follows the Company's recent $100 million Coppercoin™ program with Coppercore Inc. (announced March 31, 2026) for high-grade copper resources and the $78.2 million initiative with American Strategic Minerals Inc. for U.S.-mined antimony, gold, copper, and silver (announced March 26, 2026). These collaborations showcase Datavault AI's systematic build-out of a diversified RWA portfolio - spanning industrial metals essential for AI infrastructure and electrification (copper) to defense-critical materials (antimony) and now premium precious metals (gold). The Company believes that its platform is fast becoming the industry benchmark for bridging high-value mineral assets with global digital capital markets.About King Mining Capital LLC.King Mining Capital is a North American-based advisory and investment company focused on the investment, acquisition, and development of mineral exploration and mining companies.About Datavault AIDatavault AI™ (NASDAQ:DVLT) is a pioneer in AI-driven data experiences, valuation, and monetization of assets in the Web 3.0 environment.

Radisson Extends High-Grade Gold Mineralization at O’Brien to 1.9 Kilometres Depth with Latest Drill Results

Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - April 30, 2026) - Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSXV: RDS) (OTCQX: RMRDF) ("Radisson" or the "Company") is pleased to announce assay results from sixteen new drill holes completed at its 100%-owned O'Brien Gold Project ("O'Brien" or the "Project") located in the Abitibi region of Québec. Of note, today's results include significant intercepts of high-grade gold in the new pilot hole OB-26-384 at 1.9 kilometres vertical depth, the deepest hole ever drilled at the Project. These results are the latest from the Company's ongoing 140,000-metre step-out drill program and extend the scope of gold mineralization beyond the Company's recent updated March 2026 Mineral Resource Estimate. Highlights include (summarized below, and in Figure 1):OB-26-384, the deepest hole ever drilled at the O'Brien Gold Project, intersected 4.54 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold ("Au") over 12.0 metres (core length) including 16.85 g/t Au over 1.0 metre and including 12.87 g/t Au over 1.0 metre and 7.21 g/t Au over 2.0 metres including 9.91 g/t Au over 1.0 metre;OB-25-378W2 intersected 5.96 g/t Au over 6.9 metres including 8.77 g/t Au over 3.7 metres and 11.65 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and 8.77 g/t Au over 1.3 metres;OB-26-385W1 intersected 20.39 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and 16.61 g/t Au over 1.5 metres;OB-26-385 intersected 4.13 g/t Au over 4.7 metres including 15.29 g/t Au over 1.0 metre and 5.55 g/t Au over 1.2 metres;Matt Manson, President and CEO: "Since late 2024 we have been engaged in an aggressive 140,000-metre program of step-out drilling at the O'Brien Gold Project with the objective of testing the full scope of mineralization down to a 2-kilometre floor. Drill results reported through the course of 2025 and early 2026 confirmed the presence of an increasingly significant, high-grade gold vein system beneath the historic O'Brien mine workings and below the modern mineral resource area. On March 2nd we published an interim update to the Project's Mineral Resource Estimate with a meaningful 82% increase in Inferred Mineral Resources based on the drilling completed to that date. Now, we are reporting additional high-grade results that extend the scope of mineralization further still. The headline result is from new pilot hole OB-26-384, the deepest drill hole ever completed at the Project, which has returned multiple high-grade intercepts of gold in classic vein settings at 1,900 metres vertical depth, a full 350 metres below the current limit of mineral resources in this area (Figure 1). Overall, seven out of seven holes completed in the central "O'Brien" and "East O'Brien" target areas have returned intercepts with thicknesses and gold grades consistent with the Project's mineral resources, giving an overall success rate of 79% for the step-out drilling completed to date. A fence of nine shallow holes in the lower-priority "Thompson-Cadillac" area have confirmed the extension of the Project's mineralizing system west of the historic mine, albeit at lower average grades. Looking forward, seven drill rigs are active at the Project, with twenty-two additional holes completed or in progress, thirteen of which have returned visible gold intercepts."Figure 1: Longitudinal Vertical Section and Plan View of Gold Vein Mineralization and Mineral Resources at the O'Brien Gold Project, with Today's Drill Holes IllustratedTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/295118_9c85cad7c404bb29_001full.jpgTable 1: Assay Results from Select Drill Holes To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/295118_9c85cad7c404bb29_002full.jpgNotes on Calculation of Drill Intercepts:The O'Brien Gold Project Mineral Resource Estimate effective January 31, 2026 ("MRE") utilizes a 2.20 g/t Au bottom cutoff, a US$2,500 gold price, a minimum mining width of 1.2 metres, and a 60 g/t Au upper cap on individual assays. Intercepts presented in Table 1 are calculated with a 3.00 g/t Au bottom cut-off. Sample grades are uncapped. True widths, based on depth of intercept and drill hole inclination, are estimated to be 30-80% of core length. Table 3 presents additional drill intercepts calculated with a 1.00 g/t bottom cut-off over a minimum 1.0 metre core length so as to illustrate the frequency and continuity of mineralized intervals within which high-grade gold veins at O'Brien are developed. Drill holes OB-26-388 and 389 at Thompson-Cadillac did not return any intercepts averaging above 1.00 g/t Au. Lithology Codes: PON-S3: Pontiac Sediments; V3-S, V3-N, V3-CEN: Basalt-South, North, Central; S1P, S3P: Conglomerate; POR-S, POR-N: Porphyry South, North; TX: Crystal Tuff; ZFLLC: Larder Lake-Cadillac Fault ZoneStep-Out Drilling at O'BrienSince the end of 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 extent of mineralization at the Project. This drilling is accomplished with pilot holes followed by wedges and directional drilling to maximize drill efficiency. In October 2025, Radisson announced the expansion of the step-out drill program to 140,000 metres employing an eventual eight drill rigs (see Radisson news release dated October 16, 2025). Since this program began, 79% of completed drill holes have intersected gold mineralization with grades and core-lengths consistent with the Project's Mineral Resources, including the results published today (Table 2). Radisson publishes the results of all completed drill holes.Figure 2: Vertical Section through "Trend #1 with Pilot Hole OB-26-384 at 1.9 kilometres Vertical DepthTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/295118_9c85cad7c404bb29_003full.jpgThe origin of the step-out drill program was the deep pilot hole OB-24-337, which was the first exploration drill hole located below the former mine workings since mining ended in 1957. This hole 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 (see Radisson news release dated December 16, 2024). Fifteen wedge branches were completed from OB-24-337 delineating up to eight gold-bearing veins over a 250-metre x 700-metre area (see Radisson news release dated February 12, 2026), contributing significant new mineral resources in the March 2026 update. Pilot hole OB-26-384, which is highlighted in today's news release, is the deepest hole ever drilled at the O'Brien Gold Project and has been positioned to test the downward plunge of mineralization in "Trend #1" (Figures 1 and 2). This hole returned (in core lengths) 4.54 g/t Au over 12.0 metres including 16.85 g/t Au over 1.0 metre and also including 12.87 g/t Au over 1.0 metre at 1,900 metres vertical depth, 350 metres beneath the base of the mineral resource area above and approaching the 2-kilometre exploration floor. The observed gold mineralization is within characteristic quartz-sulphide-gold veins and alteration envelops developed within the conglomerate and porphyry units of the Piché Group, consistent with the mineralization observed at higher elevations (Figure 2). This represents a significant potential expansion in the scope of mineralization at the Project. Wedge branches from this new pilot hole are ongoing.Today's results also include the first assays from pilot hole OB-26-385 and its first wedge branch (385W1) drilled between the OB-24-337 drill pattern and the base of the historic workings at approximately 1,100 metres vertical depth, and the first wedge branches from pilot hole OB-25-378 (378W1 and 378W2) drilled below the 337 pattern at approximately 1,700 metres vertical depth (Figure 1). All of these holes have returned multiple intercepts with high grades over characteristic vein intervals, such as (in core lengths) 20.39 g/t Au over 1.5 metres, 16.61 g/t Au over 1.5 metres, 4.13 g/t Au over 4.7 metres including 15.29 g/t Au over 1.0 metres, 11.65 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and 5.96 g/t Au over 6.9 metres including 8.77 g/t Au over 3.7 metres. These results demonstrate the up-dip and down-dip continuity of this newly delineated vein system, and additional wedge branches in these areas are also ongoing.Table 2: Drill Results Published for the O'Brien Gold Project since December 2024Date of PublicationTotal Number of Drill HolesDrill Holes with Intercepts >+3g/tSuccess Rate (%)April 30th, 2026-O'Brien77100%April 30th, 2026-Thompson-Cadillac9222%January 27th, 202677100%January 6th, 20266583%October 28th 2025151387%September 8th, 2025151387%July 16th, 2025141179%April 2nd, 202533100%February 26th, 2025201575%December 16th, 202411100%Total977779% 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 several metres in thickness and are associated with broader, mineralized alteration envelopes. 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 steeply plunging 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).QA/QCAll drill cores in this campaign are NQ in size. Assays were completed on sawn half-cores, with the second half kept for future reference. Drill core samples are sent to MSALABS's analytical laboratory located in Val-d'Or, Québec, for preparation and gold analysis. The entire sample is dried and crushed (70% passing a 2-millimeter sieve) and split to 500 g. The analysis for gold is performed on an approximately 500 g aliquot using Chrysos PhotonAssay™ technology. Mineralized zones containing visible gold were analyzed to extinction whereby the entire sample is split into multiple jars, each is analysed by PhotonAssay, and the average of the results is used for reporting. Standard reference materials, blank samples and duplicates were inserted for quality assurance and quality control.MSALABS operates under ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation, utilizing industry-standard QA/QC frameworks for gold analysis. By integrating blanks, duplicates, and CRMs into their workflows, the laboratory adheres to established benchmarks that ensure precise, reliable, and verifiable results.QP DisclosureDisclosure 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.

Diagens Launches DoctorBench, Setting a New Global Benchmark for ‘Real-World Clinical Performance’ in Medical Foundation Models

HONG KONG, Apr 30, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Hangzhou Diagens Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (2526.HK, “Diagens”) today officially launched DoctorBench, a medical AI evaluation platform, and unveiled its inaugural global medical foundation model leaderboard in Hong Kong. WiseDiag Technology’s WiseDiag-v2, Google’s Gemini-3.1-Pro-Preview, and OpenAI’s GPT-5.4 secured the top three positions.For the first time, the evaluation framework places “real-world clinical performance” at the center, constructing a multi-dimensional benchmarking system that closely mirrors authentic diagnostic and treatment scenarios.As medical foundation models accelerate their transition from laboratory research to clinical application worldwide, the industry has long lacked a metric that genuinely measures a model’s “clinical competence.” Existing evaluations predominantly focus on medical knowledge recall, failing to capture a model’s comprehensive performance in complex clinical contexts. This gap between benchmarking and clinical reality has become a global obstacle hindering the deployment of medical AI.OpenAI previously launched HealthBench, signaling that leading players are beginning to take this challenge seriously. However, medicine is inherently localized — diagnostic and treatment guidelines, language conventions, and patient populations vary significantly across countries and regions, rendering any single evaluation system insufficient for universal applicability.Driven by a profound understanding of this global challenge, Diagens developed the DoctorBench platform. The platform’s creation is rooted in nearly a decade of deep collaboration by a cross-disciplinary team. Diagens brought together experts in basic medicine, clinical medicine, artificial intelligence, and the healthcare industry, tightly integrating rigorous clinical logic with cutting-edge deep learning algorithms. This enables DoctorBench to both comprehend the boundaries of AI technology and grasp the intricate demands of clinical practice, using that standard to construct its evaluation framework.The core philosophy of DoctorBench is no longer to test a model’s “knowledge base,” but to assess its clinical communication and decision-making ability — its capacity to “think like a doctor.” The platform features three leaderboard tracks: the Medical Leaderboard (LLM), the Multimodal Leaderboard (VLM), and the Agent Leaderboard — evaluating textual diagnostic ability, multimodal understanding, and multi-turn decision-making with tool-use inside a simulated clinical environment respectively.On the evaluation mechanism, DoctorBench pioneers a multi-dimensional architecture combining “2 Core Dimensions (Safety and Accuracy) + 3 General Dimensions (Interaction Quality, Information Prioritization, Proactive Inquiry) + 5 Specialized Modules (Evidence & Citation, Explainable Reasoning, Actionability, Personalized Adaptation, Emotional Support).” It is equipped with “Scenario-Adaptive Weighting,” dynamically adjusting the weight of each dimension according to the risk level of different clinical scenarios, making the scoring logic closely aligned with real-world diagnostic decision-making.Crucially, the platform designates “Medical Factual Accuracy” and “Safety and Risk Control” as inviolable red lines with a “one-vote veto” power. Any model that exhibits critical deviations on issues affecting patient safety will be unable to achieve a high score, regardless of outstanding performance in other dimensions. This design stems from the team’s deep understanding of the essence of medicine: in a field where lives are at stake, safety is always the paramount principle and leaves no room for compromise.“The advancement of medical AI is a long-distance race concerning the health and well-being of all humanity. It demands not only disruptive technological innovation and deep cross-disciplinary, cross-regional collaboration, but also an absolute reverence for and unwavering commitment to life and health,” said Dr. Song Ning, Founder of Diagens. He expressed the hope of joining hands with more global research institutions, clinical centers, and industry partners, so that truly capable technologies can be recognized, trusted, and ultimately used to benefit every patient.

Hong Kong International Licensing Show and Asian Licensing Conference conclude successfully

HONG KONG, Apr 29, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Asia’s annual flagship licensing events, the Hong Kong International Licensing Show and the Asian Licensing Conference, concluded successfully today. Organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), the three-day extravaganza for the licensing trade ran from 27 to 29 April, attracting more than 330 exhibitors and showcasing over 600 brands and licensing projects. The Asian Licensing Conference brought together some 20 international licensing experts to explore key industry topics, including global licensing trends and the industry outlook, intellectual property (IP) licensing strategies for overseas expansion, sports licensing, location-based entertainment, food and beverage licensing, and creative marketing strategies. The two events served as cross-regional and cross-sectoral business expansion platforms across multiple categories, creating global business opportunities for participants and promoting regional IP trade development.Jenny Koo, Deputy Executive Director of the HKTDC, said: “Under the support of the national 15th Five-Year Plan, Hong Kong continues to deepen its role as a regional IP trading hub. As one of Asia’s most mature licensing markets, the city boasts a well-established industry ecosystem, with the licensing sector serving as a core engine for IP trade. We are pleased to see licensing applications expanding from traditional character merchandising to cover location-based entertainment, food and beverage, e-commerce and a host of other fields, forming a complete licensing industry chain that helps to create more business opportunities for the industry globally.”In response to the rapid development and growing popularity of e-commerce, this year’s Licensing Show introduced the new IP and e-Commerce Support Services Zone. In collaboration with the E-commerce Association of Hong Kong, Hong Kong eCommerce Supply Chain Association and the Hong Kong Federation of E-Commerce, the zone hosted multiple workshops on building online shops, digital marketing and livestream commerce, helping small and medium-size enterprises (SMEs) capitalise on e-commerce to sell their IP products globally.Among the participants was Digitify Online Growth, an e-commerce platform specialising in digital marketing and e-commerce operation solutions. Kay Leung from the company said: “The greatest value of this new dedicated zone lies in ‘promotion’ and ‘education’. In the current economic climate, industries across different sectors are actively seeking new avenues to expand their business. This zone serves as an essential foundation for SMEs, raising awareness of how to effectively leverage e-commerce as a springboard to promote their brands and sell their IP products to the global market.” Prof. Charles Ng from another exhibitor, StarLite IPC Limited, said: “This year's Licensing Show has truly played the role of an ‘all-rounded accelerator’ in driving industry growth. During this critical period of economic recovery in the Asian market, the show has successfully brought together leading licensors, licensing agents and brand owners from around the world, providing an efficient business matchmaking platform for IP licensing-focused enterprises like ours."Commenting on the impact of the new IP and e-Commerce Support Services Zone, Jenny Koo said: “This aligns well with the direction of the Hong Kong SAR Government’s policy to enhance the competitiveness of Hong Kong SMEs in relation to cross-border e-commerce. The HKTDC will continue to provide an ideal platform for the global licensing industry to showcase more diversified brand licensing projects, strengthening Hong Kong's position as an international licensing hub.”The Licensing Show continued to feature the DLAB Hong Kong Pavilion, bringing together nearly 40 exhibitors to showcase multiple Hong Kong original brands and IPs. Among them, local designer Kirsten Lie presented her original IPs and secured collaboration opportunities with overseas shopping malls. She said: “The current negotiations are highly encouraging, with enthusiastic responses all around. We are now in serious discussions with two overseas shopping malls and will meet with their senior management next week to move the partnership forward.” Another participating designer, James Ho, said “This year's Licensing Show provides an excellent brand promotion platform for local designers, enabling us to reach and engage with potential partners from diverse sectors on a broad scale.” In addition, this year’s Hong Kong Licensing Force Showcase featured The Hang Seng University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong Baptist University and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, with the newly participating Hong Kong Design Institute joining to showcase creative designs by emerging local talents.Key topics at this year’s Asian Licensing Conference included how non-traditional toy IPs resonate with young consumers in the emotional economy along with new development models for food and beverage licensing. George Wood, Managing Director of The Luna Entertainment Group, shared on location-based entertainment during the session, saying: “We learned that one of the non-negotiables has to do is with the depth of affection, which is often related to the number of hours the audience has spent with the IP”. He also expressed his belief that transforming entertainment brands into experiences is one of the revenue engines offering long-term value. In another session, Mark Kingston, CEO and Co-founder of Libertas Brands Ltd, mentioned the rising popularity of non-traditional toys such as Fugglers, whose deliberately designed “ugly-cute” appearance echoes the rise of the emotion economy. “We want to ensure that every Fuggler engages different individuals, and that every individual can find a Fuggler that suits their personality or particular mood. That is key to the storytelling nature of Fugglers,” Mr Kingston said.Mainland institutions exhibit with distinctive cultural and creative brandsThe Chinese Mainland Pavilion brought together more than 150 institutions from regions including Beijing, Shaanxi, Jiangsu, Guangdong, Sichuan and more. Popular IPs such as Nailoong, Suchao, Tang Fugui, the Sun and Immortal Birds made their debut at the event, demonstrating the innovative vitality of the mainland’s cultural tourism IPs. Among the exhibitors in the pavilion were more than 20 cultural and museum institutions including Guangdong Museum, Nanjing Museum and the Xu Beihong Memorial Museum, showcasing the richness of the nation’s historical and cultural resources. This year, the distinctive Beijing Museums brand from the Beijing Municipal Cultural Heritage Bureau made its first overseas appearance. World cultural heritage sites such as the Great Wall and the Summer Palace collectively presented the unique character of Beijing’s heritage.Multiple MoUs signed to deepen collaboration and exchange in the licensing industrySeveral memoranda of understanding were signed during the two major licensing events, including one between the Beijing Municipal Cultural Heritage Bureau and the HKTDC. Building on their longstanding cooperation, both parties now aim to continue deepening cultural and economic exchange and collaboration under the broader framework of Beijing-Hong Kong cooperation. The MoU encourages both parties to actively build a cultural and museum cooperation platform, facilitating Beijing institutions to make use of the HKTDC’s platforms to explore aligning Beijing’s cultural and museum IPs and museum collections with Hong Kong’s professional strengths in the areas of creative design, IP transformation and licensing services, promoting the commercialisation, internationalisation and digital development of cultural and museum resources, and providing an effective way of telling China's stories.Another MoU was signed between the Innovative Entrepreneur Association (IEA) and the Shantou Cultural and Creative Tourism Industry Association, aiming to strengthen cultural and creative industry collaboration between Hong Kong and Shantou and promote the deep integration and coordinated development of the two cities’ cultural, creative and tourism industries. This collaboration was facilitated by the HKTDC following a study mission by a Hong Kong licensing industry delegation to the Greater Bay Area and South China market in January this year to explore development opportunities and business prospects. The signing of the MoU represents a further deepening of exchange and cooperation between industry players in both cities.Photo download: https://bit.ly/3QDbhJJHKTDC Executive Director Sophia Chong attended the opening ceremony of the Hong Kong International Licensing Show and Asian Licensing Conference on Monday (27 April) and delivered the welcome remarks.(From left) Commissioner for Cultural and Creative Industries of CCIDA, Drew Lai; Director, Asia Tourism Exchange Centre, Zhang Dong; HKTDC Executive Director, Sophia Chong; Permanent Secretary for Culture, Sports and Tourism, HKSAR Government, Sum Fong Kwang, Vivian; Plan and Policy Analyst Expert Level, Ministry of Culture, Thailand, Narathorn Parndee; and President and CEO of Licensing International, Maura Regan, officiated the opening ceremony.The Hong Kong International Licensing Show introduced the IP and e-Commerce Support Services Zone for the first time this year, supporting brands and IP projects in capturing new opportunities brought by e-commerce development.The Design Licensing and Business (DLAB) Support Scheme brought together nearly 40 exhibitors, showcasing multiple Hong Kong original brands and IPs.Multiple tertiary institutions participated in the Hong Kong Licensing Force Showcase, showcasing creative designs by emerging local talents.Mainland cultural and museum institutions exhibited at the Licensing Show, bringing a variety of distinctive cultural and creative brands.The Beijing Municipal Cultural Heritage Bureau and the HKTDC signed a memorandum of understanding during the two major events aimed at deepening cultural and economic exchange and collaboration between the two cities.The Asian Licensing Conference invited industry leaders to explore multiple market-focused topics.WebsitesHong Kong International Licensing Show: https://www.hktdc.com/event/hklicensingshow/enAsian Licensing Conference: https://www.hktdc.com/event/hklicensingshow/en/programme'category=all&date=allHKTDC Media Room: http://mediaroom.hktdc.com/enMedia enquiriesFor more information, please contact Raconteur:Molisa LauTel: 6187 7786Email: molisalau@raconteur.hkBetsy TseTel: 9742 7338Email: betsytse@raconteur.hkHKTDC’s Communications & Public Affairs Department:Winnie KanTel: 2584 4055Email: winnie.wy.kan@hktdc.orgAbout HKTDCThe Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) celebrates its 60th anniversary this year.

Xiao Noodles Posts Maiden Annual Results: Revenue and Net Profit Jump in 2025 as ESG Efforts Drive Long-Term Value

HONG KONG, Apr 29, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - In 2025, China's catering industry surpassed RMB5.7 trillion in total market size, maintaining steady and healthy growth momentum. The sector has shifted its focus from scale expansion to efficiency improvement and structural optimization, entering a new stage of high-quality development. The industry’s chain store ratio climbed for six consecutive years to 25%, with food delivery penetration exceeding 30%. AI and supply chain technologies are further reshaping operational models across the sector. Amid this structural adjustment, Xiao Noodles, a leading and rapidly growing Chinese noodle restaurants operator in China, has secured a solid foothold amid industry reshuffling by focusing on operational efficiency, product quality and long-term value creation.Rising Profitability with Robust Growth in Scale and Performance As the “First-listed Chinese Noodle Restaurant”, Xiao Noodles (2408.HK) unveiled its inaugural financial results since its listing. During the Reporting Period, the Company posted total revenue of RMB1,622.4 million, a year-on-year increase of 40.5%. Its net profit reached RMB106.1 million, representing a year-on-year growth of 74.8%. Adjusted net profit stood at RMB135.4 million, up 111.9% year on year, reflecting a sustained improvement in profitability. By the end of 2025, the brand’s total restaurant network had expanded to 503 outlets.Driven by the expansion of self-operated restaurants, revenue from self-operated restaurants rose by 44.9% year on year from RMB1.00 billion in 2024 to RMB1.45 billion in 2025. Its revenue contribution increased from 86.7% in 2024 to 89.4% in 2025, demonstrating strong resilience of the self-operated model. Meanwhile, the proportion of food delivery revenue in total revenue jumped from 15.6% in 2024 to 23.3% in 2025, emerging as a new key driver of overall revenue growth.In terms of operational efficiency, the average daily orders per restaurant for its self-operated restaurants and franchised restaurants increased from 386 and 390 in 2024 to 406 and 412 in 2025, respectively. As of the end of 2025, Xiao Noodles had 395 self-operated restaurants and 92 franchised restaurants in 24 cities in the Chinese Mainland, 15 restaurants in Hong Kong SAR and one restaurant in Singapore, steadily advancing its national and international expansion.While achieving steady operational growth, the Company has maintained a strong commitment to shareholder returns. The Board proposed a final dividend of RMB0.03 per H share for fiscal 2025, representing a payout ratio of over 50%. This proposal not only delivers tangible returns to shareholders for their long-term support, but also underscores the Company’s financial health, characterized by genuine profitability and robust cash flows. It further enhances investor confidence and trust in the Company’s corporate governance and brand value.Deepening ESG Practices: Public Welfare and Talent Co-create Long-term ValueAs ESG becomes a core measure of long-term corporate value for measuring a company’s long-term value, Xiao Noodles has embedded social responsibility into its business model, emergency response, and talent investment. In 2025, its public welfare donations reached RMB1.4 million.Since 2023, the Company has launched the “Baobao Meal Charity Program”, donating RMB0.1 for every baby meal sold for public welfare purposes. As of the end of 2025, approximately 2.18 million baby meals had been sold cumulatively, generating public welfare funds of approximately RMB218,000. This has created a virtuous cycle: rising sales - a larger pool of charitable funds - stronger brand reputation. In September 2025, the Company, together with the Shanghai United Foundation, donated RMB100,000 to launch the “An Egg Donation Activity,” providing rural children with a daily egg and nutrition education courses. Through tangible actions, the initiative focuses on supporting the health and education of underprivileged children. In terms of talent and innovation investment, the Company partnered with South China University of Technology to establish the “Campus Culture Construction Fund” and the “Innovation and Entrepreneurship Public Welfare Fund.” In 2024, the Company donated RMB600,000, with a planned cumulative donation of RMB3 million over five years. An additional RMB300,000 was contributed in 2025, demonstrating its ongoing commitment to supporting education and cultivating innovative talent.In response to emergencies, the Company has demonstrated a well-established emergency response capability. Following the fire incident at Wang Fuk Court in Tai Po, Hong Kong, in November 2025, the Company activated its emergency charitable response mechanism on the same day and donated HKD1 million to support the resettlement of affected residents, reflecting a robust ESG governance structure and effective authorization mechanisms.In addition, the Company places strong emphasis on internal talent development, adhering to the philosophy that “Talent Drives Development,” and provides employees with continuous learning and career advancement opportunities. During the reporting period, the employee training coverage rate reached 100%, with a total of 40,756 training hours and an average of 19.8 hours per employee, ranking at a relatively high level within the industry. The Company has established an online training system based on digital infrastructure, offering standardized training programs and comprehensive on-boarding training for new employees to ensure consistency in professional standards and service experience. While reducing talent development costs during store expansion, this system also shortens the ramp-up period for new stores, thereby securing a stable talent supply chain to support rapid expansion.From product-driven micro-philanthropy to targeted engagement with specific social issues, and further to long-term investment in education, rapid crisis response, and internal talent development, Xiao Noodles has established a clear path that balances “the integration of business and social welfare, as well as short-term and long-term priorities.” In doing so, the Company has also built strategic assets that enhance brand premium, reduce employee turnover, and strengthen investor confidence.Forward-Looking Industry Positioning with Promising Growth PotentialFrom an industry perspective, the Chinese fast-casual dining sector is accelerating its transformation toward standardization, digitalization, and branding. Firstly, consumer demand for healthy, convenient, and cost-effective dining options continues to rise, benefiting leading players with strong supply chain capabilities and economies of scale as market concentration increases. Secondly, AI and automation technologies are reshaping cost structures, with applications such as intelligent workforce scheduling, precise inventory management, and autonomous delivery gradually being implemented, further unlocking technological dividends. In addition, ESG performance has become a key metric for assessing the long-term value of restaurant enterprises, as non-financial factors such as green stores, low-carbon operations, and community responsibility increasingly influence both capital allocation and consumer choice. Leveraging its strengths in product innovation, operational efficiency, and early-mover advantage in ESG practices, Xiao Noodles is well positioned to further expand its market share within its niche segment.Overall, in 2025, Xiao Noodles delivered an exceptional dining experience through flavorful dishes, high-quality service, and a distinctive dining atmosphere. The Company achieved notable results in profitability, financial optimization, shareholder returns, and green practices, successfully transitioning from scale-driven expansion to quality-driven growth. Looking ahead, as industry consolidation accelerates and digitalization and ESG initiatives gain traction, the Company's competitiveness is expected to strengthen further, driving its results of operations to a new height and injecting strong momentum into the high-quality development and green transformation of the industry.

随着欧洲和东南亚吸纳的国际护士比例不断上升,全球护士流动格局正在发生变化

宾夕法尼亚州费城, 2026年4月28日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - TruMerit™(前身为CGFNS International)今日发布了《2025年护士流动报告》,揭示了全球护士流动模式的显著变化,以及在医疗需求差异巨大的各地区之间,护理人员分布不均现象日益加剧。该报告通过分析世界卫生组织数据及TruMerit专有的VisaScreen®申请记录显示,国际护士流动正日益集中于医疗基础设施更完善的地区,而面临严重护士短缺的地区在雇佣国际教育背景护士的能力方面持续处于劣势。欧洲和东南亚的国际护士就业人数大幅增加。根据TruMerit对世卫组织护理人员数据的分析,欧洲目前雇佣的国际教育背景护士占其医疗保健劳动力的8.01%,而过去十年的平均水平为5.96%——这一趋势呈现出持续且显著的上升态势。东南亚地区国际教育背景护士占医疗卫生工作力的比例高达24.87%,而过去十年的平均水平为20.15%——尽管过去十年间存在波动,但这再次表明了显著且稳定的增长趋势。同期,东地中海和非洲地区国际教育背景护士的比例有所下降,加剧了医疗资源匮乏地区现有的护士短缺问题。“这些数据揭示了全球范围内日益加剧的不平衡现象:资源充沛的卫生系统正在加速吸纳海外受过教育的护士,而护理人员短缺最严重的地区却正失去雇佣这些他们迫切需要的专业人才的能力,”TruMerit总裁兼首席执行官彼得·普雷齐奥西博士表示。“要纠正这种分配失衡,需要来源国和目的地国采取协调行动——这需要建立在伦理招聘框架的基础上,通过更强有力的双边协议来帮助抵消来源国承担的教育和培训成本,并对医疗资源匮乏地区的护理教育和卫生系统能力进行持续投资。”国际护士职业发展路径日益复杂该报告强调了国际护士流动性日益增强的趋势。TruMerit对2021至2024年VisaScreen资质认证数据的分析显示,约3%移居美国的护士在申请美国执业许可前已在其他国家有过国际工作经历——这表明全球护理劳动力流动性日益增强,多次跨国职业流动正变得越来越普遍。“本报告的数据清楚地表明,护士流动不仅仅是一个供需问题——它反映了全球医疗教育、就业容量及医疗资源分配方面更深层次的结构性不平等,”TruMerit全球事务首席官罗德里戈·戈维亚(Rodrigo Gouveia)表示。“协调一致的政策框架、对护理教育体系的投资,以及加强医疗资源匮乏地区的医疗基础设施建设,对于确保国际护士流动能够促进而非加剧全球卫生公平至关重要。”新兴风险:人工智能生成的资质造假威胁护理人员队伍的诚信《2025年护士流动报告》还探讨了威胁医疗卫生人员队伍诚信的新兴风险,包括预计将增加的人工智能生成的职业欺诈。行业分析师预测,到2026年,每四份求职者资料中就有一份可能是由人工智能伪造的,这凸显了经过验证的护士资质认证系统对于保障患者安全的重要性日益凸显。完整的《2025年护士流动报告》可在此处下载。关于TruMeritTruMerit是全球医疗卫生人才发展的领军机构,在支持护士及其他医疗卫生工作者职业流动方面拥有近50年的经验。TruMerit前身为CGFNS International,致力于为寻求在美国及其他国家获得执业许可的海外医疗卫生专业人员,对其教育背景、培训经历及专业经验进行认证。通过其扩展的使命以及全球卫生人才发展研究院,TruMerit 致力于推进相关研究、标准及认证工作,以增强全球卫生人才队伍建设,并促进公平、可持续的职业流动。媒体联系LEA SIMS首席营销与传播官TruMeritmedia@trumerit.org来源:TruMerit Copyright 2026 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

Global Nurse Migration Patterns Shift as Europe, Southeast Asia Absorb Growing Share of International Nurses

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Apr 28, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - TruMerit™ (formerly CGFNS International) today released its 2025 Nurse Migration Report, revealing significant shifts in global nurse migration patterns and widening inequities in nursing workforce distribution across regions with vastly different healthcare needs.The report, which analyzes World Health Organization data and TruMerit's proprietary VisaScreen® application records, shows that international nurse migration flows are increasingly concentrated in regions with stronger healthcare infrastructure, while areas facing severe nursing shortages continue to lose ground in their ability to employ internationally educated nurses.Europe and Southeast Asia see sharp increases in international nurse employment. According to TruMerit's analysis of WHO nursing workforce data, Europe now employs internationally educated nurses at a rate representing 8.01% of its healthcare workforce, compared to a ten-year average of 5.96%-a persistent and significant upward trend. Southeast Asia has seen internationally educated nurses as high as 24.87% of the healthcare workforce, compared to a ten-year average of 20.15%-again, indicative of a notable, steady trend despite fluctuations over the past decade. During the same period, the proportion of internationally educated nurses working in the Eastern Mediterranean and African regions has declined, exacerbating existing nursing shortages in underserved areas."These data expose a widening global imbalance: well-resourced health systems are accelerating their absorption of internationally educated nurses, while regions with the most severe nursing shortages are losing the capacity to employ the very professionals they urgently need," said Dr. Peter Preziosi, President and CEO of TruMerit. "Correcting this maldistribution will require coordinated action by both source and destination countries--grounded in ethical recruitment frameworks, stronger bilateral agreements that help offset the education and training costs borne by source countries, and sustained investment in nursing education and health system capacity in underserved regions."Growing Complexity of International Nurse Career PathwaysThe report highlights increasing mobility among internationally educated nurses. TruMerit's analysis of VisaScreen credentialing data from 2021-2024 shows that approximately 3% of nurses migrating to the United States had already worked internationally in another country before applying for U.S. authorization-evidence of an increasingly mobile global nursing workforce in which multiple international career moves are becoming more common."The data in this report make clear that nurse migration is not simply a matter of supply and demand-it reflects deeper structural inequities in how healthcare education, employment capacity, and healthcare resources are distributed globally," said Rodrigo Gouveia, Chief Global Affairs Officer at TruMerit. "Coordinated policy frameworks, investment in nursing education systems, and strengthening of health infrastructure in underserved regions are essential to ensuring that international nurse migration supports rather than exacerbates global health equity."Emerging Risks: AI-Generated Credential Fraud Threatens Nursing Workforce IntegrityThe 2025 Nurse Migration Report also examines emerging risks to healthcare workforce integrity, including the projected rise in AI-generated occupational fraud. Industry analysts project that by 2026, one in four job candidate profiles may be fabricated by artificial intelligence, underscoring the increasing importance of verified nurse credentialing systems for protecting patient safety.The full 2025 Nurse Migration Report is available for download here.About TruMeritTruMerit is a worldwide leader in healthcare workforce development with nearly 50 years of experience supporting the mobility of nurses and other healthcare workers. Formerly CGFNS International, TruMerit validates the education, training, and professional experience of internationally educated health professionals seeking authorization to practice in the United States and other countries.

Tenstorrent Galaxy integrates with open-source frameworks through TT-ForgeTM and TT-Lang, and supports rapid model bring-up, enabling customers to deploy production AI systems without vendor lock-in or proprietary stacks. 90% of models from HuggingFace just work on Tenstorrent hardware.Networked AIThese results are enabled by an architecture built around a different constraint. Most AI accelerators treat compute as the primary design problem. Tenstorrent instead solved data placement and data flow first which enables performance through scaling."Every company in the industry is pairing up to build the accelerator accelerator accelerator. CPUs run code. GPUs accelerate CPUs. TPUs accelerate GPUs. LPUs accelerate TPUs. And so on. This leads to complex solutions which are unlikely to be compatible with changes in AI models and uses. At Tenstorrent, we thought something more general and simpler would work," said Jim Keller, CEO of Tenstorrent.The result is what Tenstorrent calls Networked AI: a new model for AI infrastructure where compute, memory, and networking are unified into a single system optimized for real-world AI workloads. By combining efficient data placement and data flow, high bandwidth on-chip memory, and Ethernet-based scale-out, the architecture scales from a single core to thousands of servers under one software model, without proprietary interconnects, without reconfiguration, and without the rigid workload declarations that make competing systems brittle as models evolve.DeploymentsTenstorrent Galaxy superclusters are one of the new foundations of Equinix's Distributed AI HubTM, a full-stack AI orchestration platform for agentic workloads, launching today with partners BetterBrain and OrionVM. Equinix's Distributed AI Hub helps customers and partners cover every layer from infrastructure to application, and plugs into legacy enterprise systems, enabling customers to deploy, and operate, sovereign agentic AI systems.Equinix: A global digital infrastructure company that provides colocation and interconnection services, enabling enterprises and partners to deploy and scale AI - along with other mission-critical workloads - securely, efficiently, and in close proximity to users, clouds, and data.OrionVM: Next-gen heterogeneous cloud platform partner powering the orchestration and infrastructure layer for Tenstorrent-based AI services.BetterBrain: A full-stack AI platform and deployment partner delivering secure, customizable, production-ready AI applications and agentic workflows on Tenstorrent infrastructure."Tenstorrent brings immense value to our Distributed AI Hub by fundamentally rethinking how AI workloads are executed-from optimizing data flow on-chip across prefill and decode, to orchestrating the full AI stack. This level of architectural intelligence allows enterprises to stay focused on building differentiated products, not managing infrastructure complexity," said Justen Aguillon, Director of Technology Partner Ecosystems."We're enabling a new class of AI factories-high-performance, cost-efficient environments with the flexibility to run both frontier and open-source models, and the embedded telemetry and governance required to scale agentic systems globally."Additional deployments announced today include:Virtu Financial, a tier-1 market maker working with Tenstorrent to enable real-world AI systems: on-premises agentic AI solutions for trading and operational automationTuriyam, a next-generation semiconductor and AI infrastructure company building datacenter-scale inference chips, software, and systems from India for the worldCirrascale, a top tier neocloud with cloud services for agentic applications and generative AI, available in the US and multiple international regionsai&, Japan's vertically integrated AI platform: the largest installation of Tenstorrent hardware to power AI infrastructure, models, and applications across Japan and around the world."We evaluate a lot of hardware. Most of it is incremental. Tenstorrent Galaxy Blackhole is not. Tenstorrent has taken a clean-sheet approach to AI infrastructure, and the results speak for themselves. Putting this in the hands of our customers is exactly the kind of move Cirrascale exists to make." said Dave Driggers, CEO and Co-Founder, Cirrascale Cloud Services.Run anything - Fast, Simple, Affordable - with Tenstorrent Galaxy Blackhole.Tenstorrent Galaxy Blackhole is Tenstorrent's air-cooled compute server built with Tenstorrent's next-generation Blackhole® chips and fully open-source software stack.
