Highly aligned with the Industry 4.0 strategy, Aitu brings far more than just competitive advantages to Vietnam’s garment manufacturing industry!

HANGZHOU, China, Sept. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — As competition in the global apparel manufacturing industry intensifies, Vietnam’s garment manufacturing industry faces challenges such as raw material and labor costs, and slow technological upgrades. Aitu, a Chinese AI brand, has garnered international attention. It won the Gold Award for Artificial Intelligence Product Innovation at the 2025 IFA exhibition, highlighting its significant position in the global intelligent manufacturing sector.

China’s artificial intelligence industry is projected to exceed 500 billion yuan by 2024, forming a complete ecosystem from basic research to industrial application. “AI+” was officially included in China’s 2025 Government Work Report. As a representative of Chinese intelligent manufacturing, Aitu integrates AI with garment manufacturing, humanoid robots, and other industrial intelligent manufacturing industries. Its solutions align closely with the Vietnamese government’s Industry 4.0 strategy and may provide new opportunities for the transformation of Vietnam’s garment manufacturing industry.

Aitu leverages AI technology to drive the upgrade of “high-end yet affordable” production line equipment, bringing far more than just enhanced competitiveness. On the one hand, this will enable a transition from OEM to high-value-added manufacturing, enabling customized upgrades and facilitating flexible responses to high-end international orders and growing domestic demand. On the other hand, it will enable automation and skill reskilling, eliminating repetitive tasks and improving production efficiency. This will effectively fill Vietnam’s textile industry labor shortage of 300,000 skilled workers by 2025, address labor cost pressures caused by rising minimum wages in many regions, and boost overall revenue and profits for manufacturing companies. This will have significant implications for the development of Vietnam’s garment manufacturing industry.

Aitu’s global brand launch event will be held at the Shanghai Tower on September 23, 2025, showcasing AI-driven smart manufacturing solutions. We look forward to the new opportunities for intelligent transformation it will bring to Vietnam’s garment manufacturing industry, helping the country achieve greater stability and advancement in the global garment manufacturing industry.

KOBE and OSAKA, Japan, Sept. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Taoyuan City has strengthened its tourism ties with Japan’s Kansai region through a promotional mission to Kobe and Osaka on September 11–12. Led by Director Chen Ching-Fang of the Taoyuan Department of Tourism, the delegation included local tourism businesses engaging in exchanges with the Kobe Tourism Bureau, JATA Hyogo Branch, Arima Hot Spring Association, and regional partners. This marked a new stage of collaboration, expanding from government-level dialogue to practical business-to-business connections.

In Kobe, the delegation also visited local schools with the city’s Education Bureau to explore opportunities in student travel and SDGs initiatives. Director Chen highlighted that the partnership with Kobe, first established in 2022, has already shown results in the school trip sector and now provides broader opportunities for industry engagement.

On September 12, Taoyuan hosted its first tourism seminar in Osaka, introducing the concept “Taoyuan: The Starting Point of Your Journey.” With Japan ranking as Taoyuan’s largest overseas market—over 1.32 million Japanese visited Taiwan in 2024, including 140,000 overnight stays in Taoyuan—the city promoted seamless travel experiences directly from Taoyuan International Airport. Highlights included coastal cultural tours at the Pearl Coast, historical walks in Daxi Old Street, tea experiences in Longtan, and eco-tourism at Lalashan and Xiao Wulai.

Taoyuan also showcased its three tourism brands—Pearl Coast, Great Dragon Gate, and Northern Cross-Island Exploration—while promoting its culinary appeal, from goose dishes to indigenous cuisine. A promotional video featuring Japanese celebrity Angela Sato at Taoyuan’s night market drew strong attention both in Taiwan and Japan, supported by ad placements in Osaka’s Umeda Station.

The mission concluded with a visit to JATA Kansai, where both sides agreed to deepen collaboration and expand mutual promotion, further boosting Taoyuan’s presence in Japan’s tourism market.

This pop-up marks the first Korean-based experiential showroom in Brooklyn, providing a unique platform where Seoul brands connect directly with both consumers and buyers.

VIBE TWLV, operated by Buying Square, is designed as a hybrid stage that links brands, consumers and buyers. Products experienced onsite are directly integrated with Buying Square’s digital B2B Catalog Shop, allowing visitors to scan QR codes for product details and order inquiries. Brands can capture consumer reactions and buyer demand in real time, creating a pipeline for reorders and long-term transactions even after the event.

Evan Choi, CEO of Buying Square, said: “We are excited to showcase leading Seoul beauty brands in Williamsburg. For consumers, we offer a gallery-like experience, and for buyers, a seamless pipeline that connects discovery to actual transactions. Starting with Episode 1, we will continue to use VIBE TWLV in Brooklyn as a hub to share Korean creativity with the world — from brands to artists and cultural voices.”

This project is jointly organized with SBA’s Beauty Creative Lounge, BtheB. SBA supports startups and businesses in Seoul through programs that foster entrepreneurship, growth and global expansion.
