“The less developed a region is, the more it needs to pursue an innovation-driven development strategy.” This message, voiced at the conference, reflects the clear-eyed resolve of a provincial capital city.

That resolve is underpinned by real strengths.

Here, the National Dairy Technology Innovation Centre has shortened dairy-cattle breeding evaluation from four years to just 45 days and cultivated China’s first probiotic strain for infants and young children derived from Chinese breast milk, helping the “Dairy Capital of China” advance towards becoming a global dairy hub. A major scientific facility for aerospace, sky-to-ground, cross-scale metrology, benchmarked against international leaders, is rising in Horinger New District. Inner Mongolia University of Technology has launched the region’s first new-energy industrial large model open to the world. Meanwhile, a domestic enterprise—the only one currently able to produce 4N5 high-purity germanium products consistently—is helping quantum technology and calcium-titanium mineral photovoltaics overcome key raw-material bottlenecks. From a single microbial strain to a beam of light, technological and industrial innovation are converging here and reinforcing one another.

Even more compelling is the city’s tangible commitment.

Municipal fiscal investment in science and technology will double in 2026 and double again in 2027. Newly recognised national-level innovation platforms will receive a one-off research grant of RMB 3 million, while each “Qingcheng Science and Technology Innovation Leading Talent” may receive up to RMB 500,000 in research support. By 2030, Hohhot aims to introduce an additional 10 academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Engineering, as well as 50 high-level innovation teams. Through a policy approach of “enjoy benefits without application and receive them directly and swiftly”, the city will provide inclusive computing-power vouchers, model vouchers and token vouchers to technology-oriented small and medium-sized enterprises—lowering barriers to innovation and demonstrating the city’s sincerity in supporting innovators.

Openness is a defining feature of Hohhot.

Drawing on the Hohhot Area of the China (Inner Mongolia) Pilot Free Trade Zone, the city is building an international science and technology cooperation base with countries along the Belt and Road. It is also deepening coordination with Beijing’s Haidian District through a “two-hour innovation circle”, exploring a new pathway in which research and development take place elsewhere while results are transformed and applied in Hohhot. Hohhot understands that innovation cannot thrive as an undertaking enclosed behind walls.

Like the Mongolian horse, it is resilient, diligent and determined—never resting until the goal is achieved. This is the character of the city: the breadth and inclusiveness of the grasslands, combined with the courage and pioneering spirit to open northwards, explore new frontiers and put ideas into action.

From the “Dairy Capital of China” to China’s “Cloud Valley”, from the pastures of Chilechuan to the computing-power clusters of Horinger, this green city is becoming a city of innovation.

Hohhot extends an invitation to the world: here there are supportive policies, real-world application scenarios and a genuine commitment to partnership—together with a vast landscape in which to join hands with those who strive and build for the future.

The groundbreaking ceremony was attended by prominent US government and political figures, including Indiana Governor Mike Braun, US Senator Todd Young, Purdue University President Mitch Daniels, and Chairman of the Korea-US Alliance Foundation Robert Abrams. Kang Kyung-wha, Ambassador of South Korea to the United States, was also present at the event. From the SK Group, Vice Chairman Yu Jeong-Joon, Vice Chairman Lee Hyung-hee, CEO of SK hynix Kwak Noh-Jung attended.

Investment of Over $4 Billion for First US HBM Production Base Creating Synergy with Korea

The Indiana fab, with a total expected investment of over $4 billion, is scheduled to open its cleanroom by October 2028 and initiate mass production of next-generation HBM in the second half of 2029. It is projected to grow into a key HBM production hub in the US led by a workforce of approximately 1,000 personnel during anticipated commercial operations.

Notably, the Indiana fab marks SK hynix’s first HBM production base established in the United States, featuring an operation framework closely integrated with production in South Korea. Cutting edge wafers produced by SK hynix in Korea will be delivered to Indiana, where they will undergo advanced packaging and testing before Made in USA products are supplied to US customers.

Furthermore, an “Advanced Packaging R&D Testbed” will be built alongside the production lines, enabling customers, universities, and business partners to collaboratively develop next-generation packaging technologies and rapidly execute prototype fabrication and performance validation.

As competition to expand AI infrastructure intensifies, the Indiana fab, which connects SK hynix’s Korea-US HBM production, is expected not only to help stabilize the U.S. semiconductor supply chain but also to contribute to strengthening the national economy and security in the AI era.

“SK hynix’s historic investment in West Lafayette is further proof that Indiana is leading the way in rebuilding America’s semiconductor industry,” said Senator Young. “This project will create good-paying jobs, strengthen our national and economic security, and ensure the technologies of the future are developed and manufactured here in the United States. I was proud to help make this investment possible through the CHIPS and Science Act, and I look forward to seeing the impact it will have on Hoosiers and our country for decades to come.”

Indiana Governor Mike Braun remarked, “This project will usher in the next generation of American innovation, bring thousands of good-paying jobs to Indiana and supercharge regional economic development. It’s a win for Hoosiers, a win for our economy and a great leap forward for Indiana in the race to be the best in the industries of the future.”

Strengthening the Local Ecosystem and Bilateral Economic Cooperation with Local and National Companies

SK hynix’s investment in Indiana is expected to foster a virtuous cycle of strengthening the US semiconductor ecosystem and enhancing economic cooperation between South Korea and the United States.

Currently, more than 100 companies are being considered as suppliers for materials, components, and equipment for the West Lafayette facility, which will support the stable operation of the Indiana fab and further solidify the US AI ecosystem. SK hynix also plans to create approximately 7,000 direct and indirect jobs with local and national companies during construction of the advanced packaging facility and subsequent commercial operations.

Kang Kyung-wha, South Korean Ambassador to the US, stated, “SK hynix’s investment in Indiana is not merely an investment in semiconductor manufacturing facilities, but the establishment of the first AI memory production facility and R&D center in the United States, creating a unique model for nurturing semiconductor talent and strengthening collaboration with the government and external organizations.”

MOU for R&D Collaboration with Purdue University and Veteran Recruitment Program

At the groundbreaking ceremony, SK hynix also signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Purdue University for research and development collaboration in the field of advanced packaging.

Through the MOU, both parties will strengthen R&D cooperation and will jointly research system integration and advanced packaging technologies, including HBM. In addition, SK hynix plans to expand efforts on cultivating and recruiting world-class talent from across the Midwest.

During the event, a recruitment partnership was also established to honor the special historical connection with Indiana, which deployed approximately 140,000 troops during the Korean War. SK Group agreed to provide new employment and career opportunities for discharged USFK service members. To this end, SK Group will participate as a hiring corporation in the ‘USFK Veterans Job Platform’ operated by the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI) and the Korea-US Alliance Foundation, thereby contributing to the robust partnership between the two nations.

Kwak Noh-Jung, CEO of SK hynix, declared, “Today marks the day when the United States and SK hynix embark on a new future of AI together.” He added, “The United States is the epicenter of AI innovation, bringing together premier customers, top-tier R&D capabilities, and partners and Indiana fab will become a gateway to deliver first Made in USA HBM products.” He emphasized, “We will expand our investments and collaboration in the US, grow together, and become the most trusted partner in shaping the future of AI in America.”

VITURE and S-GAME Unveil Phantom Beast — the Official Phantom Blade Zero XR Glasses

COLOGNE, Germany, Aug. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — VITURE, the leading XR/AR glasses manufacturer, and S-GAME, the studio behind Phantom Blade Zero, revealed an official hardware collaboration at Worlds of Play: The Game Art Exhibition. Phantom Beast XR Glasses bring the “kungfupunk” aesthetic of S-GAME’s highly anticipated action-RPG to VITURE’s flagship XR glasses.

Steel meets steam, wuxia meets XR: the kungfupunk collaboration is unsheathed at Worlds of Play and launches day-and-date with the game on October 29.
Steel meets steam, wuxia meets XR: the kungfupunk collaboration is unsheathed at Worlds of Play and launches day-and-date with the game on October 29.

VITURE x Phantom Blade Zero: Phantom Beast is available to pre-order now for $599 exclusively at viture.com and the IGN Store. Phantom Beast launches on October 29, the same day as Phantom Blade Zero.

“This was personal for me. Wuxia is part of how I grew up, and Phantom Blade Zero honors that world in a way I’ve been waiting to see for a long time,” said David Jiang, founder of VITURE. “Building Phantom Beast let us do more than put a logo on a product, we built a way for people who’ve never set foot in the Wulin to feel like they belong there. That’s what VITURE exists to do: put you inside the story, not just in front of it.”

Phantom Beast marks VITURE’s first partnership with a Chinese game studio and its second collaboration with a major AAA game, following last year’s Cyberpunk 2077 Luma Cyber XR Glasses.

“The VITURE × Phantom Blade Zero XR glasses bring the game’s distinctive kungfupunk aesthetic into the real world, combining cutting-edge technology with collectible appeal,” said Soulframe, Game Director and Founder of S-GAME. “The cinematic scale and immersive experience of XR offer players a new way to step into the Wulin of Phantom Blade Zero and experience its world beyond the screen. I believe XR has the potential to become an exciting new stage for AAA gaming.” 

A Weapon, Worn

Phantom Blade Zero’s fusion of traditional Chinese wuxia and punk fantasy is reflected in every detail of the Phantom Beast’s design. The glasses carry exclusive artwork, engravings, and iconography pulled from the game’s blade-forward visual identity, wrapped around the same industry-leading optical system and ultra-sharp display of the standard Beast. What’s new is everything you see and touch: a redesigned case, a detachable strap, and an OSD menu reskinned entirely around Phantom Blade Zero’s UI.

Start with the metal detailing on the temples, modeled after Soul’s blade frozen mid-draw — the exact moment it clears the scabbard. That single image, the tension before the cut, exemplifies the Phantom Beast’s design principles. The detachable neck lanyard carries traditional wuxia patterning and martial-arts-inspired ornamental pads.

The Scabbard: A Case That Unsheathes

The case gets its own chapter in the design story. A triangular metal drawer wrapped in textured black leather, it opens the way the game’s blades do — sliding, not flipping. Drawing it open exposes a crimson interior that surfaces like a blade catching light, with the glasses seated inside and the red cord trailing from the channel. One end cap is finished with a deep-embossed seal from the Phantom World; the leather sleeve carries the VITURE × Phantom Blade Ø mark. Closed, it reads as a relic. Open, it is a weapon presented for the draw.

A Fitting Collector’s Bounty

The collector’s packaging doubles as a shelf-ready display with full-cover print artwork: a stylized black-and-white portrait of Soul readying his blade, flames engulfing the Wulin’s buildings behind him. Four additional Phantom Blade Zero collectibles are included inside the oversized box: a 12.5cm Mó Sanguine blade replica, a game-art card brick, a sticker sheet, and a lens cloth. Customers who pre-order or purchase Phantom Beast by November 5 will also receive a collectible game map. Built as a scroll to match the storytelling spirit and written texts of the Phantom World, the map comes with dual rollers.

The Biggest Screen in the Wulin

Phantom Beast, like the standard edition VITURE debuted this past April, has the largest and smartest virtual screen in the consumer XR category. VITURE’s custom prism-based optical system and the latest Sony Micro-OLED panels deliver the definitive XR experience for Phantom Blade Zero and other AAA games: a 174″ (at 4m) virtual screen, 1200p per eye, 120Hz refresh, 1,250 nits peak brightness, 9-level electrochromic dimming, VisionPair™ 3DoF spatial tracking, and HARMAN AudioEFX spatial sound. Users can instantly switch between five immersive display modes, including a 32:9 panoramic aspect ratio for PC games with super-ultrawide support.

Phantom Beast connects via USB-C with plug-and-play support for Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and Steam Deck. Phantom Blade Zero players on PlayStation need VITURE’s Pro Mobile Dock, which extends support to PS5, PS4, Switch, Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One, as well as other HDMI devices; players can also connect Phantom Beast to Switch and Switch 2 with the Mobile Dock Mini. VITURE is the only XR glasses manufacturer with Switch 2 support.

Fitch Assigns Gorilla Technology First-Time ‘B-‘ Rating with Positive Outlook

London, United Kingdom – Newsfile Corp. – August 27, 2026 – Gorilla Technology Group Inc. (NASDAQ: GRRR) (“Gorilla” or the “Company”), a global solution provider in Security Intelligence, Network Intelligence, Business Intelligence, IoT technology and data centres, Gorilla Technology Group Inc. (“Gorilla” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that Fitch Ratings has assigned the Company a first-time Long-Term Issuer Default Rating of ‘B-‘ with a Positive Outlook.

The rating follows an extensive review of Gorilla’s business, financial profile and growth strategy. Fitch highlighted Gorilla’s positioning within the rapidly expanding AI infrastructure market in South & South-East Asia where it noted that “the constraint is not customer demand but access to deployable power and GPU capacity”.

Fitch also recognised the Company’s deleveraging potential as its new data centre projects scale, stating that “Deleveraging is supported by EBITDA growth with good visibility over the next few years.” Fitch expects dividends from Gorilla’s project SPVs to begin flowing to the parent from 2029 or potentially earlier as project-finance debt is repaid.

Gorilla believes the rating represents an important milestone in the continued development of its capital structure. A public credit rating provides lenders and institutional investors with an independent assessment of Gorilla’s credit profile and supports the Company’s ability to access a broader range of debt financing solutions at both Group and SPV level.

Over time, Gorilla believes this should help broaden its sources of capital, strengthen the resilience of its funding base and support more efficient financing of its global AI infrastructure programme.

Jay Chandan, Chairman and CEO of Gorilla Technology, commented: “As Gorilla invests billions of dollars into the infrastructure required for our next phase of growth, establishing an independent credit rating is an important step in broadening our access to global capital. Fitch’s Positive Outlook reflects the significant earnings growth and deleveraging potential embedded in our strategy. We see this rating as another important building block as Gorilla scales into a leading AI infrastructure platform across Asia.”
