New Mobile CRM Solution Enabled Sales, Operations, Warehouse, and Admin Teams at REPASSA To Easily Process Customized Orders While Working Remotely.

SINGAPORE, Aug. 27, 2021 — For simplifying the order processing of the customized products, REPASSA, a trusted name in the Hygienic and Chemical industries throughout Southeast Asia, partnered with HokuApps, a global player in next-generation digital transformation services, to create a custom-built mobile CRM solution as per their unique requirements and workflows. This new solution enabled REPASSA to automate its entire sales and service management process across all SEA offices. It ensured the high quality and reliability of its business operations during COVID-19.

Established in 1992, Singapore’s REPASSA Group is a trusted name in the Hygienic and Chemical industries throughout Southeast Asia. In addition to representing famous European and U.S. brands, the company also offers custom engineering solutions and after-sales services. Their specialties include utilities, liquid & powder processing, filling, and packaging machines, ranging from single components such as pump & valve to complete industrial solutions.

They can now easily create a custom quote, a work, or a delivery order, take pictures of the custom build and share it with the client. The solution is also supporting the HR team for managing leave requests, various claims, and other employee functions directly through the application.

"As a custom supplier, we knew it was going to be a challenge to build an app that could suit our operations and also be intuitively understood, by users across our subsidiaries throughout Southeast Asia," said Patrick Toh, Sales & Marketing Director at REPASSA Singapore. "One of the biggest challenges was how to implement order processing of customized products. Through systems adaptation on our end in tandem with the relentless efforts of HokuApps, we managed to build a unique solution that will benefit our future operations across SEA."

"Using the mobile app, a huge majority of REPASSA’s daily business activities, can now be consolidated into one universal company-wide platform," said Nand Kapoor, Director of HokuApps.

The founder Kevin Ling and his team
The founder Kevin Ling and his team

Kevin Ling, as a Gen Z entrepreneur, initiated GERZZ INTERACTIVE from his passion and interest in LARP game. In 2020, due to the impact of the epidemic, Kevin Ling returned to China from the United States. He surprised found that LARP was developing with an rapid speed both in content and form . He sensed that LARP has huge potential in overseas market. Thus, he decided to start his own business in this field.

At the beginning, the team consisted of 9 college students. With a strong academic background from Carnegie Mellon University, they decided to create an online LARP app to connect students. Initially, Kevin and his team tried to develop a mini-program to recruit players online and play the game offline. Afterwards, the team is developing an LARP App which players can enjoy the game online. Till now, the company owns 32 stuff.

HALO JUBENSHA plans to be launched in September this year. The obvious difference between HALO and other types of software is that HALO has DM (Dungeon Master, the host of the game). It is the first LARP app with the DM in global market. The DM will be trained by professional teachers who have rich experience in voice-controlling and acting.

The script is outstanding. All of the scripts which were previously popular offline are brought to this online platform. This is a mature and high-end boutique route. Besides, some good script has elements of Chinese traditional culture, which is helpful to broadcast Chinese culture abroad.

In 2020, the LARP industry in China has a market valued over 20 billion RMB. Under an era where innovation matters, long-term success requires consistent creation on high-quality product. GERZZ plans to cooperate with other game companies to develop IP for the content. Meanwhile, GERZZ aims to build their own writer team.

GERZZ focuses on new development of software on mobile Internet. They hope to lead an entertainment revolution globally.

Perkbox reimagines global reward and benefits for the post-pandemic world

Leave a comment

LONDON, Aug. 18, 2021 — Perkbox, the global benefits and reward platform, today announces its new offering to help employers care for, connect with, and celebrate their people around the world.

The new location agnostic Perkbox platform enables employers to harmonise their global employee experience and create cost and time efficiencies, while delivering bespoke wellbeing, recognition, and engagement offerings to each employee. Perkbox already supports over 5,000 businesses and more than 600,000 users across more than 34 countries.

The new platform launch comes as HR leaders worldwide grapple with a unique set of circumstances, brought about, or accelerated, by the COVID-19 pandemic:

  • Employee wellbeing is in freefall. Nine in ten employees faced new wellbeing challenges in 2020[1], as burnout from balancing work and life becomes a greater issue
  • The employee/employer relationship is changing. Work from home-induced introspection has left many people looking for more from their employer and work.
  • International, distributed working models are on the rise. Hybrid and remote working are making it more difficult to create a clear and attractive organisational culture across multiple locations.
  • There’s a new talent landscape. New ways of working have also unlocked a truly international pool of talent, giving businesses the option to recruit from anywhere in the world.

In response, Perkbox’s reimagined, unified platform helps HR leaders create a stronger employee value proposition, built around caring for, connecting with, and celebrating employees, wherever they’re based.

Employees can access the platform via web or a powerful single app. It’s organised into four ‘hubs’, each offering support in a key area, and integrates seamlessly with existing single sign on (SSO) and human resources information systems (HRIS) – creating a frictionless experience for both employees and HR administrators.

Wellness hub. Supporting employees’ wellbeing is vital in itself, and it boosts retention and engagement.[2] The Wellness hub enables employers to meaningfully support this area by providing access to carefully curated, constantly updated wellbeing content. Employees can choose what works for them – from hypnosis and therapy audios to HIIT workouts and meditation guides.

Perks hub. Perks hub enables employers to overcome the stifling complexity of the global benefits market, while providing employees with the huge variety of global deals, discounts and benefits needed to fulfil individual requirements. There is also the option for employers to offer a monthly ‘Flexi points’ allowance. Employees can redeem these, at no cost to themselves, against a wide range of ‘Flexi Perks’, from coffees and entertainment subscriptions to mindfulness apps – and much more.

Celebration hub. Building a culture of appreciation can help drive motivation and engagement.  Celebration hub helps strengthen the connections between all employees and employers, regardless of location, by enabling leaders to visibly recognise and reward their people in a personalised way. Recognitions can also be linked to company values – helping businesses reward behaviours that embody what they stand for.

Culture hub. This helps create cultural alignment and a greater sense of togetherness across all parts of the business, by providing a single source for news and company initiatives.  It reduces reliance on leaders in each location to cascade information – saving their time and that of HR leaders.

Gautam Sahgal, CEO, Perkbox comments: "Organisations are becoming increasingly diverse – with people of different demographics spread across different geographies. This is presenting HR leaders with a two-pronged challenge: how to create a clear, common, and compelling culture for the evolving, international workforce. And how to create a reward and benefits offering that provides genuine value to everybody, wherever they are.

"We want Perkbox to be the simple, cost-effective answer to the global challenges and opportunities the new age of work poses. The platform is the result of an incredibly in-depth investigation into what our clients truly want from us. We took the time to ask HR leaders why they chose Perkbox and, in today’s working world, the ability to harmonise wellbeing, recognition and engagement across markets was seen as vital. This is the strategic imperative to help organisations attract, retain and inspire the talent they need to succeed."

About Perkbox

Perkbox is the global benefits and rewards platform that allows companies to care for, connect with and celebrate their employees, no matter where they are and what they want. Location agnostic, it supports over 5,000 businesses and more than 600,000 users across 34 countries and counting.

Through its Smart Safety Management Platform, GSIL Promotes Joint Technology Commercialization with Top-tier Korean Construction Companies

Leave a comment

SEOUL, South Korea, Aug. 6, 2021 — GSIL, founded in 2013 as specialized company in smart safety management, is increasing its market share in the industrial safety market through active collaboration with top-tier Korean construction companies. GSIL, a member of Born2Global Centre, has recently been recognized for its technological prowess in Korea’s construction industry after entering into contracts with the Korea Land and Housing Corporation and Samsung Engineering to establish a smart safety management platform for construction sites, and signing MOUs for joint technology commercialization.

GSIL, Korea Land Housing Corporation, and Samsung Engineering CI

In the first stage of its market expansion GSIL will supply a smart safety management platform to construction sites of the Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH).

During the first year, the company will install a smart safety management platform in LH pilot sites and then expand to all LH construction sites. GSIL will build a platform operation server that can support the operations of the general and regional headquarters, and construction sites, while strengthening safety control systems that monitor smart safety equipment, and worker safety in hazardous areas, and equipment training management in real time.

GSIL, together with Samsung Engineering, has also promoted the joint commercialization of a SaaS-based smart safety management platform that will quickly enter the smart safety management market.

In the division of effort between the two companies, GSIL is responsible for planning and development of an overall smart safety management platform, while Samsung Engineering’s focus is on investment for the development of the smart safety management platform, market development, and safety standards that are in line global standards.

The smart safety management platform is a mobile-based SaaS-type system that enables safety management across all work stages. Using mobile devices, workers generate and manage safety management data from work processes that must be performed daily.

Through a TBM (Tool Box Meeting) platform, workers can recognize and proactively respond to potentially dangerous situations in the workplace.

GSIL has provided its IoT smart safety systems to construction and industrial sites; the company has been recognized for its technological prowess in related industries, and expects its growth to continue. For the first time as a startup, GSIL acquired New Excellent Technology (NET) No. 828, which is a technology certification related to construction, from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and NET No.2019-5, which is a technology certification related to disaster prevention, from the Ministry of Public Administration and Security. As such, the company was recognized for its technology excellence and field applicability.

Meanwhile, GSIL is building and operating its smart safety system at construction sites of the Gangwon Headquarters of the Korea National Railway and Korea Midland Power. In addition, the company is discussing system application and collaboration plans for Kuwait Motor Town, South Saad Al-Abdullah Smart City, the Los Angeles Metro construction project in the US, Long Son Petrochemical and AISTV in Vietnam, and a power plant in Indonesia.

Shanghai Lab Systems’ video Effect App ToFe is available in the App Store

Leave a comment

The app debuts on the large screen overlooking New York’s Times Square, showcasing its outstanding AR special effects

SHANGHAI, Aug. 6, 2021 — The iOS version of ToFe, an augmented reality (AR) technology-based mobile short video effecting app developed by Shanghai Lab Systems Co., Ltd. was launched in the App Store in mid-July following the availability of the Android version in the Huawei App Gallery. On July 26, the app made its debut on the large screen overlooking New York’s Times Square, showcasing its amazing interactive special effects powered by AR technology to the world.

With multiple AR-based special effects, ToFe delivers a brand-new interactive video shooting experience to users. Most notably, the app can create a virtual world simply by randomly scanning the real-world environment and virtualizing what is captured, while enabling the motion tracking effects as soon as a human being enters the app’s field of vision.

Unlike the AR effects available on traditional cameras, ToFe takes the special effects up several notches by fully leveraging LiDAR technology, which can scan a specific object and the environment surrounding it by determining the distance of the object from the camera and capturing detailed information through targeting the object with a laser and measuring the time for the reflected laser beam to make the return trip. In addition, the app delivers a truly magical, in-depth interactive experience by allowing users to interact physically and directly with the AR special effects.

By integrating LiDAR technology into ToFe iOS version (compatible with iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max), Shanghai Lab Systems has led the way in the depth sensing camera sector and leveraged the ways in which a time of flight (ToF) sensor can be applied to its products.

LiDAR technology for ToFe is likely to see wide application in a number of dynamic scenarios, including 3D scanning, hand gesture and human body tracking as well as motion sensing gaming. The company plans to collaborate with more partners to develop AR-based interactive special effects that are applicable to additional scenarios.

iWeb Inc, OTC Markets QB, IWBB, announced it will acquire Tingo Mobile Plc. from Tingo International Holdings, Inc, in a deal valuing the Tingo Mobile Plc at $3.7 Billion USD

Leave a comment

LOS ANGELES, July 30, 2021 — Transaction was negotiated for IWEB by their Business Development Partners Global Fintech Trading Limited Led by Craig Marshak an experienced Fintech Specialist investment banker who formerly ran a Nomura bank Venture Technology fund in London with considerable success in online gaming, Software and Cybersecurity investments.

Tingo International Holdings, Inc., is the parent company of Tingo Mobile, PLC, a Nigerian limited company. Tingo is a device and a service technology company focused on creating digitally inclusive ecosystems in the AgriTech and FinTech sectors in Africa.

TINGO has posted total revenue figure of $616 million dollars in 2020 and an EBITDA of $220 million dollars (figures based on NGN/USD exchange rate of 360), IWEB is confident that these figures will be exceeded going forwards with expansion and natural upwards progression of the TINGO business

IWEB have agreed to pay $4.00 per share with an issuance of 928 million new shares valuing TINGO at $3.7 Billion USD

Tingo is Nigeria’s leading technology and Device as a Service platform aimed at accelerating digital commerce, especially in Agri-Tech & Fin-Tech verticals in Nigeria. Tingo helps farmers acquire mobile phones through a unique mobile phone leasing scheme, connecting them to mobile and data networks through its virtual mobile network and connecting farmers to markets, services, and resources via Nwassa, its digital AgriTech marketplace platform. Beginning in April 2021, Tingo also launched a beta version of Tingo Pay – a B2C FinTech app aimed at providing financial services including mobile wallets, payment processing and access to specialist lenders and insurers to users inside and outside of the agriculture value chain.

Tingo have over 9 million subscribers and has supplied almost 30 million mobile devices since 2014.

About Tingo see www.tingogroup.com

Tingo has four core business drivers:

  • Mobile Phone Leasing: Tingo has distributed almost 30 million mobile handsets since 2014 and will continue to replace the devices of its installed customer base every three years.
  • Mobile Voice and Data Service: Through a Mobile Virtual Network, Tingo provides its customers with voice and data services.
  • Nwassa Platform: Tingo’s proprietary AgriTech platform, Nwassa, supports Nigeria’s agricultural value chain with market access.
    Tingo processes 500k daily transactions with a value of over $8 million, which provides its installed customer base with access to agricultural markets for their crop. Farmers and cooperatives are also supported with packaging, warehousing, and cargo logistics
    Tingo provides its customers with digital wallet services, which enable them to send and receive domestic payments, monitor cash flow in real time and securely hold money.
    Tingo provides access to other third-party services such as utility bill payment, virtual airtime top-up, insurance services, and alternative lending solutions.
  • Tingo Pay: Since the launch of Nwassa platform Tingo has been a dominant player in the B2B FinTech vertical. Tingo has entered the B2C FinTech vertical to extend our B2B play to mass market use cases beyond agriculture.

Market Opportunity

Africa is the second-largest continent by land mass and population. The continent is also the youngest by far, with a median age of 18 years for its 1.3 billion people. Tingo believes the building blocks for growth in Africa’s agriculture industry are in place and that Tingo is well positioned in this space to participate in the upside.

Compelling fundamentals

  1. Strong demographic potential: Sub-Saharan Africa’s population is growing at 2.7% a year, which is more than twice as fast as South Asia (1.2%) and Latin America (0.9%). That means Africa is adding the population of France (or Thailand) every two years. At the current growth rate, the continent’s population will double by 2050. The median age across the continent is 18 years, thirteen years younger than the median age in South America the next youngest continent according to the World Bank. Africa’s youthfulness represents a significant opportunity for material growth in demand for agricultural commodities. This younger generation is also being born into a "networked" world and is more comfortable using technology to achieve their goals.
  2. Improving business conditions: Africa’s governments are paying more attention to improving business conditions for entrepreneurs and small businesses on the continent. Sub-Saharan Africa’s World Bank Doing Business rank has improved by c.20 points from 45 in 2004 to 65 in 2020. Tingo believe this trend will continue and encourage establishment of more new ventures across all economic sectors including the agriculture industry.
  3. Investor appetite remains robust: Africa attracted $407 billion of Foreign Direct Investments between 2014 and 2018 (c.$80 billion per annum on average). Investments are increasingly focused on services and industrial sectors. Only 20% of investments are in extractive industries – a clear reversal from as recently as 2008 when 55% of FDI was aimed at resource extraction, Tingo believes FDI into Africa will help resolve significant infrastructure constraints and position the Agric value chain for value creation.

Nigeria is the largest economy and the most populous country in Africa and is therefore central to the continent’s growth story.

Agriculture is central to African lives and livelihoods. 60% of sub-Saharan Africans are small holder farmers and Agriculture accounts for 23% of the region’s GDP. In Nigeria, Agriculture employs 66% of the workforce and represents 26% of GDP.

Nigeria’s suboptimal agriculture productivity is driven by several factors including broken linkages with demand centres, inefficient capital allocation for purchase of inputs, and underdeveloped and fragmented access to services. Tingo aims to play a key role in resolving each of these issues.

Access to technology: Tingo is a key access point to the digital economy for millions of rural farmers in Nigeria, by providing affordable access to mobile devices and the internet.

Access to markets: Tingo users can connect with vendors and suppliers for affordable access to inputs and services. Tingo also connects farmers with buyers who purchase crops every year.

Access to Financial Services: Through Tingo Pay, its proprietary mobile wallet application, users can execute several transactions. These include credits into the Tingo Pay wallet, and transfers from the Tingo Pay wallet for bill payments and P2P (peer to peer payments). Tingo will continuing to add services to this application to meet customer needs.

Chris Cleverly, President of TINGO INTERNATIONAL HOLDINGS – "TINGO is Africa’s largest digital agricultural ecosystem and is a highly successful payment gateway. It is important that we embrace emerging technologies as they are necessary to solve the issues that burden the world such as food security and financial inclusion. We make no secret of our intention to uplist this group, or to use this platform to rapidly build our customer base in Nigeria and other African markets we will roll-out our unique offering. Global Food Security is a significant priority and our unique model will enable that priority and deliver Food Security in Africa, which powered with Coinfield will make us a very compelling proposition"

Anthony Moore, CEO of IWEB – ”It has been noted in recent years the rapid adoption and deployment of Blockchain by the Telecoms Industry and the global announcements almost weekly of the acceptance of Crypto, we feel the marriage of TINGO with Coinfield leads us into perfect position for this natural evolution in Africa. Africa is a Continent that is showing great readiness and willingness to adapt and adopt to new technologies.

With its young demographic, high smartphone penetration, lack of legacy infrastructure Africa has the greatest potential for blockchain and cryptocurrency of any region. Coinfield provides the know-how and has the history to deliver on this. TINGO with an already huge customer base will expand rapidly and will become the dominant digital payment platform in the world’s fastest growing economy”

Kamvas Pro 24(4K)

Kamvas Pro 24(4K) with premium design and performance is a flagship product of Huion. 4K UHD resolution, quantum-dot technology, 140% sRGB color gamut, 1200:1 contrast ratio, and HDR technology are making Kamvas Pro 24(4K) an ideal pen display for immersive visual experience. Like most Huion pen displays, Kamvas Pro 24(4K) also adopts the full lamination technology and anti-glare etched glass for minimized parallax and natural pen-on-paper drawing experiences.

Additionally, Kamvas Pro 24(4K) is embedded with two foldable feet with which users can enjoy the creation at an angle of 20 degrees. But for those who want more diversity and flexibility, monitor arm ST410/ST420 or the adjustable stand ST100A may be more suitable, as they can support more angles for users to find the most comfortable postures when drawing.

SINGAPORE, July 28, 2021 — To close the digital divide and drive economic recovery during the pandemic, cross sectors collaboration are needed to lower the costs of rural area connectivity and improve digital literacy. This was the crux of the presentations by experts at the a webinar on "Strategies for Addressing the Asia-Pacific Digital Divide – Increasing Connectivity to Drive Economic Recovery" organized by the Financial Times and Huawei on Thursday.

Asia Pacific is speeding up for digital transformation and underpinned by dynamic markets and young population. The significant rift of digital access yet hinder wider shares of digital benefits, which in turn leads to slower recovery from pandemic. ICT leverages fundamental ways to drive economic rebound.

The importance of digital inclusion is echoed by Yin Haitao, professor at Shanghai Jiao Tong University’, whose newly released report on using ICT solutions to promote economic development and alleviate poverty.

The report, named "Digital Involvement and Poverty Alleviation: A Huawei Approach," was co-authored by Yin and Chris Marquis, Professor at Samuel C. Johnson College of Business, Cornell University.

The domain of corporate sustainability has long faced the challenge of making projects of this nature financially viable. To reach underdeveloped areas and improve digital coverage, Huawei initiates RuralStar program together with local operators globally including in Thailand and Indonesia since 2017. This solution replaces traditional towers with simple poles, and enabling a shift from diesel generator power to solar power. By the end of 2020, the RuralStar had been implemented in over 60 countries, with 50 million people benefited from this initiative.

Apart from agreeing vendors like Huawei’s approach on digital infrastructure access, labor is another prior concern. Poon King Wang, Director of the Lee Kuan Yew Centre for Innovative Cities, Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD), calls for long-term strategies and sustained support to upskill people across generations and ensure wellbeing of workers in digital transformation.

Sofia Shakil, Director of the Economic Programs, Asia Foundation, addressed the negative impact of the pandemic on women unemployment and the urgency to invest in skills building.

In 2017, Huawei, the Bangladesh Government (ICT Division), and Robi Axiata jointly launched the Digital Training Bus project, to bring digital skills to women in the heart of rural Bangladesh. More than 60,000 women had received training till now, and 160,000 more will benefit from it by 2023.

To lessen the imminent labor deficit in APAC, 400,000 more are expected to be digitally upskilled in the next five years through Huawei educational flagship programs such as Seeds for the Future and ASEAN Academy, according to Michael MacDonald, Chief Digital Officer at Huawei Asia Pacific.

Departing from different fields, speakers share views of building ecosystem cohesively including government, industry and thought-leaderships from third party to drive digital inclusion. "Ultimately, we need to build up trust across the different stakeholders in the ecosystem", said Poon King Wang on sustaining the benefits of tech.
