Hosted Buyer Program Restarted with Upgrades — Worry-free Sourcing and Accurate Matchmaking at 29th China (Guzhen) International Lighting Fair

0

ZHONGSHAN, China, Oct. 12, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The industry enters the peak season with booming business opportunities in the golden autumn. Catching the eye of global lighting professionals, the 29th China (Guzhen) International Lighting Fair ("Lighting Fair") is to be held in Guzhen Town, Zhongshan City, Guangdong Province, China from October 22 to 26, 2023!

On the theme of "Guzhen Lights up the World", Guzhen Lighting Fair is positioned to be specialized, market-oriented, and globalized and based on an industrial cluster with an output value of over RMB 100 billion. Focusing on exports and promoting domestic sales, this year’s edition of Guzhen Lighting Fair is expected to be a grand procurement event stage both online and offline in the charming autumn.

Over 3,300 Brands Featured in Exhibition Halls and Stores

This year’s exhibition further optimizes the "1 Fair + 8 Sub-venues" Mode. Featuring over 3,300 enterprises, the grand exhibition will be staged at the main venue at the Guzhen Convention and Exhibition Centre, together with the eight sub-venues (Lihe Lighting Expo Center, Huayi Plaza, Star Alliance Global Brand Lighting Center, Lighting Era Center, Guzhen Chang’an Lighting Parts & Electronic City, Caosan International Lighting Parts City, Guyi Qingfeng LED Lighting Trading City and Guyi Ruifeng International Lighting Fittings City) with a total area of over 1.5 million square meters.

In the Main Venue- Guzhen Exhibition and Convention Center, a brand-new Hall G and Start-up Zone is newly added, and the Lighting X Camping Zone is upgraded. The exhibits come from the entire industry chain, covering intelligent lighting, home lighting, commercial lighting, outdoor lighting, accessories, mechanical equipment, hardware, doors and windows, kitchen and bathroom articles. The event also caters to the trends of IoT systems, new energy, cultural and tourism lighting, highlighting segments such as intelligent systems, education and office, plant lighting, battery-powered lighting, and landscape lighting. Exhibits are displayed in lifelike scenes, allowing buyers to immerse themselves in the lighting environment.

"Restarted" Offline Hosted Buyer Program, Which Is More Accurate and Efficient

In the past three years, the Hosted Buyer Program (HBP) had to be held online as many overseas buyers were unable to attend it in person. Live streaming, cloud factory visits, online pairing, and other forms helped both buyers and sellers build a smooth and unimpeded bridge for transactions and received unanimous appreciation from manufacturers by solving the time and space constraints for trading partners.

China has fully reopened its borders to foreign visitors, which means domestic and foreign industry professionals can explore more opportunities for cooperation. Focuses on exports, the 29th Guzhen Lighting Fair has "restarted" an upgraded version of HBP by inviting international procurement delegations with strong comprehensive strength and interests in cooperation from Southeast Asia, South Asia, the Middle East, and other regions. Over 300 overseas buyers with strong purchasing intentions will participate in the HBP, which helps companies expand their networks and business opportunities by effectively building an international and high-end trade and communication platform.

Upgrades to this year’s HBP are reflected in four aspects:

1. Warm Welcome Reception

To welcome professional buyers from around the world to the "world-class lighting capital" upon their arrival, the Welcome Reception will introduce the advantages of Guzhen, an overview of Guzhen Lighting Fair, and profiles of the buyers for the overseas buyers to feel the hospitality of Guzhen.

2. Accurate Business Matchmaking

100 overseas buyers have been selected to collect their needs and requirements before the exhibition, which will be matched with exhibitors at the site, reducing communication costs between buyers and exhibitors and improving the rate of successful negotiations.

3. Immersive Sourcing Tour

The organizers collaborate with Huayi Plaza to allow overseas visitors to experience the convenience brought by the exhibition model of "exhibition halls + stores" in addition to visits and sourcing activities at the main venue. The sub-venues present high-end products in different styles, matching the different procurement needs of buyers and meeting their demand for one-stop procurement.

4. Networking Party

Exhibitors and overseas buyers will be able to talk about cooperation in a comfortable and free atmosphere accompanied by delicious food and music bands. At the cocktail parties, they will meet and interact, share information, negotiate business, and achieve win-win results for all stakeholders.

Prominent Buyers, Large Orders, Strict Selection of Sellers and Seamless Matchmaking

"Global, strict selection, precision, and innovation" are the keywords of the HBP. A large number of overseas buyers from India, Malaysia, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Egypt, Greece, Kenya, Singapore, the United States, Canada, and other countries have been invited based on historical big data analysis and comparison. They are all prominent businesses with renowned brands, large scales, and high reputations, with revenues of over one million or even tens of millions of dollars, such as Power Palazzo, Prachi International Lights, and Hitech Lights Limited. Moreover, their representatives have decision-making power and will visit the site in person.

On the supply chain side, the organizers have also carefully selected exhibitors with certain scales in export. They possess certificates from authorities, such as CE/ROHS (Europe), FEE/UL (United States), CSA (North America), IC (Canada), GS (Germany, Europe), SAA (Australia), PSE (Japan), and KC (South Korea).

The B2B websites integrating exhibition and the Internet- Denggle.com and EZBuy — are being further optimized and improved to truly bring closer sellers and buyers for trade cooperation, further reduce the visit time, costs, and labor costs of overseas buyers in a more professional and thoughtful way in matchmaking, achieve precise matchmaking, bidirectional empowerment, cost reduction and efficiency increase, and build the HBP a unique gilded business card of Guzhen Lighting Fair.

Hikvision and its partners are optimizing green-building operations with 'digital twins'

0
Hikvision building solution

HANGZHOU, China, Oct. 12, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Hikvision has created an innovative digital twin solution to align with the growing demand for intelligent and sustainable construction solutions.


Hikvision building solution

Nowadays, green buildings have revolutionized the construction industry by incorporating intelligent design and environmentally friendly materials. They not only minimize resource and energy consumption but also reduce waste, contributing to a sustainable future. Furthermore, green buildings go beyond environmental impact by creating favorable living and working spaces that enhance occupant health and wellbeing, drive occupancy rates, and foster increased productivity and profitability.

Recognizing the immense benefits brought by green building design principles and the adherence to national or international eco-friendly standards, real-estate developers worldwide are wholeheartedly embracing this transformative approach for both residential and commercial projects.

Hikvision’s digital twin solution enables the creation of a digital and visual ‘replica’ of a building, facilitating real-time monitoring of critical performance indicators such as energy efficiency, climate control, and security. Additionally, it empowers swift and efficient interventions in the event of incidents or technology outages.

Creating a digital ‘model’ of a physical building

To empower the digital twin solution, Hikvision brings in products from multiple portfolios and collaborates with partners in range of sectors, from sensor and automation software providers, to alarm system and elevator control companies.

Based on these collaborations, Hikvision has integrated a diverse range of AIoT technologies that help to support greener building operations. These include everything from video security systems to multi-dimensional perception systems and intelligent automation, transforming building management systems into intelligent platforms. This convergence encompasses multiple subsystems, including lighting, energy management, environmental monitoring, HVAC, and more.

Data from all of these integrated AIoT systems is fed into advanced 3D Building Information Modeling (BIM) software, which allows the entire building to be visualized in the form of a ‘digital twin’. This can be used to monitor a range of building KPIs, including environmental quality, water and electricity efficiency, atmospheric conditions, personnel access, and parking details. This means that building operator can understand the building’s status at all times, identify any incidents or problems, and react faster to fix them.

Working greener and smarter with the digital twins

Integration of AIoT applications with the virtual platform enables efficient data analysis, proactive risk management, visualized emergency responses, post-action evaluations, and better-informed decision-making. These advancements improve every aspect of building management – helping to increase efficiency, environmental performance, and resource utilization.

Real-time data on energy consumption
With the digital twins, building operators can quickly spot energy consumption trends and abnormal utilization of water, electricity, lighting, air conditioning, and gas. For example, users can use Augmented Reality (AR) cameras to see where lights have been left on in empty rooms and turn them off to save energy. Improved utilization of space and facilities
Operators can view heat maps in the digital twin to understand peak times and occupancy rates for key areas of the site or building, including parking lots, meeting rooms or waiting rooms. With AIoT devices observing the flow of people and vehicles, lighting and HVAC systems can be turned off in areas that are not being used to save energy. Enhanced user experiences
Multi-dimensional data from the digital twin, including temperature, humidity, and air quality, improves occupants’ awareness of their environment. Air monitoring sensors detect overall air quality, smoking, vaping, carbon monoxide, and other hazardous gases. Automatic alarms for water leaks, smoking, and trash overflow enable quick, effective responses that improve user experiences and reduce health risks. Improved fire safety
Hikvision solutions are integrated with third-party fire alarm systems, providing visual alerts in the event of a fire risk and supporting faster, more effective safety responses. Other features also help to protect building users, including automatic door opening, highlighting of evacuation paths, and real-time two-way audio broadcasts to inform users and help them exit the building as quickly as possible. An end to paper waste
Hikvision, along with partners specializing in access control, elevator control, and time and attendance systems, help customers implement a paperless approach for building management. This means that processes such as visitor exit/entrance, elevator management, and employee attendance can be managed with no need for paper forms or records. Greater energy efficiency based on remote building management
Hikvision platform integrates seamlessly with the Building Management System (BMS), enabling operational staff to manage the building remotely in a fully centralized way. Digital signage, air conditioning, and LED lighting can be controlled remotely, for example, reducing workloads, improving efficiency, and saving energy.

Based on open solutions and partner collaboration, Hikvision is committed to helping customers build ecological, energy-saving, waste-reducing, and healthy buildings that comply with green building certification programs such as LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environment Design). In one prominent example, our solution helped Asian Games 2023 to optimize energy efficiency at three venues in Hangzhou, China.

Hikvision’s green building solution shows the company’s commitment to leading ESG practices. We continue to collaborate with partners to create new solutions that support long-term sustainability.

Thailand secures 405 leads at ITCMA 2023

BANGKOK, Oct. 12, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau (TCEB) led the Thai Team to an outstanding finish at the recent IT&CMA in Bangkok with a total of 405 leads across three exhibition areas, while Pattaya, one of Thailand’s MICE Cities, debuted its City Package at the show to lure overseas groups.


Thailand secures 405 leads at ITCMA 2023

The impressive number of generated leads follows TCEB’s 23 conference bid win performance concluded at the end of the bureau’s 2023 financial year on September 30.

Thailand Pavilion (40 exhibitors) generated 135 leads, a 43.6% increase from 94 leads achieved last year. Pattaya Pavilion (24 exhibitors) generated 150 leads, while Isan MICE Stand (10 exhibitors) generated 120 leads.

The leads from Thailand Pavilion – 133 for meetings and incentives (24,532 travellers) and two for conventions (2,200 travellers) – is valued at 1,764 million baht.

The leads from Pattaya Pavilion carry a potential yield of 30,000 travellers and 2,000 million baht of revenue. For Isan MICE Stand, the potential yield is 24,000 travellers and 1,600 million baht of revenue.

Pattaya, the designated MICE City for the Thailand’s Eastern Economic Corridor, took a determined step forward by introducing an all-new incentive package for event planners and organisers called City Package. Co-created with TCEB, the package offers bidding support, assistance in securing endorsement by relevant government agencies, publicity and promotion, recommendation on venues certified by the Thailand MICE Venue Standards (TMVS) and suppliers, and volunteer and traffic management.

At Isan MICE Stand, buyers met 10 exhibitors from three key cities in Thailand’s northeastern or Isan region – Udon Thani, Khon Kaen, and Nakhon Ratchasima. These cities are economic, transport, cultural, and education hubs for the region. Udon Thani is also the winner of the bid to host the International Horticultural Exposition 2026. Connectivity to Isan will improve greatly when Thailand’s high-speed rail network connects Bangkok to Nakhon Ratchasima in 2026 (253 km) and onward to Khon Kaen in 2029 (437 km).

TCEB President, Mr. Chiruit Isarangkun Na Ayuthaya, said: "Thailand put up a tremendous showing at IT&CMA this year and we have the results to show for it – 405 leads. Pattaya and Isan had their standalone stands next to the Thailand Pavilion this year and contributed 270 of the total 405 leads. We noted that buyers are responding to our efforts to introduce potential destinations. More than half of the exhibitors at the Thailand Pavilion this year are from such destinations but that didn’t stop buyers from making enquiries and pushing the number of leads at the Thailand Pavilion well past the 94 last year to 135. We know a mix of novelty and quality is key and TCEB’s product development team and our four regional offices are keeping pace. Look out for more products emerging from every region of Thailand."

Ms. Titipun Pettrakul, Deputy Mayor of Pattaya, said: "Pattaya is ready for the world. Our first-ever City Package gives event organisers great reasons to consider Pattaya for MICE. With TCEB’s support and coordination, we now have the strong fundamentals and marketing reach to turn our location in the heart of the Eastern Economic Corridor into a winning proposition. Pattaya offers two convention centres, an array of meeting venues at four-and five-star hotels, a good mix of attractions and activities, easy access from Bangkok, and all-round support from TCEB and Pattaya’s MICE community."

EACON Won Two New AHS Projects

The hybrid truck in operation in the Gobi Desert No. 2 Coal Mine

BEIJING, Oct. 12, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — EACON Mining Technology has won two new projects recently, the Gobi Desert No. 2 Coal Mine, a subsidiary of the TBEA Group, and Huolinhe South Coal Mine, a subsidiary of State Power Investment Corporation (SPIC). This represents large-scale and rapid deployment of a mature autonomous driving solution of EACON.

The new projects also demonstrate EACON’s market dominance in China’s Northwest region which accounts for 85% of the country’s total open-pit coal mines. EACON was the first in the industry to achieve normal operation in the region, starting autonomous driving stripping and haulage operations at the South pit of TBEA and the National Energy Group’s Zhundong Mine in 2020. EACON’s truck fleet in the South Pit of TBEA has increased from 39 at the end of 2022 to 203 in October 2023.


The hybrid truck in operation in the Gobi Desert No. 2 Coal Mine

The Gobi Desert No. 2 Coal Mine is located in northwestern China with a production capacity of 30 million tons per year, ranking among the top ten open-pit mines in China in terms of coal production. On August 25, EACON successfully deployed the initial batch of trucks at the mine site to validate and acclimatize to the mining environment. Just 17 days later, EACON reached the significant feat of conducting operations entirely without safety drivers. EACON plans to deploy 33 hybrid battery trucks, all operating autonomously and without any safety drivers onboard in October.

The Huolinhe South Coal Mine, located in Inner Mongolia Province, covers an area of 30 km². EACON will deploy the first 10 extended-range hybrid trucks with a payload of 90 tonnes to enable autonomous driving operation in the short term.

EACON’s commissioning time is significantly shorter than other players in the industry, maintaining the lead in terms of deployment efficiency. This demonstrates that EACON’s AHS solution in coal mining stripping operations has reached maturity. With high flexibility, adaptability, and technical stability, EACON’s AHS solution can be replicated in a short period of time.

At present, EACON has already signed four of the top ten open-pit coal mines in China, and has cooperated with top mining companies such as National Energy Group, TBEA Group, SPIC and several mining contractors. In the future, EACON will continue to expand its commercialization territory, and provide safe, efficient, and green AHS solutions for mines in China and around the world.

ALLORION THERAPEUTICS ANNOUNCES FIRST PATIENT DOSED IN PHASE 1/2 STUDY OF ARTS-021, A POTENTIAL BEST IN CLASS CDK2 INHIBITOR, FOR ADVANCED OR METASTATIC SOLID TUMORS

0

NATICK, Mass., Oct. 12, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Allorion Therapeutics (Allorion), a clinical-stage biotechnology company dedicated to the discovery and development of next-generation targeted drugs for cancer and autoimmune diseases, announced today the dosing of its first patient in the Phase 1/2 trial of ARTS-021 (NCT05867251). This open-label, first-in-human study is currently ongoing in the US and is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of ARTS-021 in adult patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
