Easybook.com completes USD5M Series-C Fundraise led by Emissary Capital

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach – 15 July 2021 – Easybook.com (Easybook) – Southeast Asia’s leading long-range mobility software provider has just completed a Series-C funding round led by investment firm Emissary Capital (Emissary). The round equaling a total of USD5M features a combination of both new and vendor shares, and will be utilized to bolster Easybook’s already significant presence across the region.

Easybook.com is Southeast Asia’s leading long-range mobility software provider. The business provides ticketing and route management software solutions to bus, train and ferry operators across the region. Operating in Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam, Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos and Brunei. Easybook currently manages a staggering USD1.6B worth of regional long-range travel inventory in an industry estimated to be worth north of USD11B a year, giving the business a strong market presence and significant room for growth.

The new capital will be utilized to expand the company’s inventory as well as drive revenue through additional monetization strategies. The business will continue its efforts to add to its suite of software solutions including additional functionality in the bus/ferry terminal management space. Easybook will also be making key structural changes to the business by moving its HQ to Malaysia to drive more operational efficiency.

Key pillar to the region’s economy

Long-range travel is a key pillar to the region’s economy. Far too often investors’ attention is focused on air-travel, but for the vast bulk of people, air-travel comes second to buses, trains and ferries. This is especially true for archipelago nations like Indonesia and the Philippines with still developing airport infrastructure. Land and sea travel are industries that have been built on small- to mid-sized operators that don’t have the scale to develop highly integrated software themselves. Easybook is the clear solution for these operators, providing them with an advanced suite of functions. Of the regions estimated 5,000 route operators, the company already services over 1,200 of them. Through these efforts Easybook is focused on digitizing an industry that is the sleeping giant of the region, bringing efficiency to the grassroots of how people travel across Southeast Asia.

Managing Director of Easybook, William Lee said: “We are very happy with the completion of this funding round. The capital from this investment will go a long way in expanding our presence and growing our inventory. This will be key as we line up for an IPO in the coming years. Having a partner like Emissary that brings operational value to the table is what attracted us to the deal. Many investors talk about adding value but there is little substance behind those words. With the Emissary team we felt that was different, they have already begun adding a number of high profile people to the management team”

Erman Akinci – Managing Partner at Emissary stated, “We are very excited about this investment. We have been impressed with what William and the Easybook team have done over the past several years. They have secured what we feel is one of the region’s most valuable travel assets. This deal allows us to get in on an amazing business that has been unfairly affected by COVID-19 and is expected to rebound swiftly as travel restrictions are lifted through 2021 and 2022.”

Easybook plans to utilise the USD5M raised to drive more growth into the business. This will be done by expanding its inventory and developing monetization strategies for the assets that it currently controls. This will be done to move the company towards an IPO in the next 24 to 36 months.

Emissary Capital

Emissary Capital is a Malaysia-based boutique investment firm focusing on ASEAN growth companies. The team is made up of current and ex-founders that have built sizable businesses across Southeast Asia. The firm utilizes an active-management strategy with a key focus on operational value adding. The firm was launched in late 2020 and currently has 200M in AUM.

Premium Homecare Brand HIZERO Unveils Award-Winning All-In-One Hard Floor Cleaner

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 15 July 2021 – HIZERO, a premium home appliances maker, today unveiled its latest revolutionary all-in-one cordless bionic floor cleaner, that offers superior cleaning performance, and other benefits like quiet running and enhanced user ergonomics.

“Powerful yet lightweight, the new HIZERO F803 delivers consumers powerful yet gentle and versatile cleaning of liquids and solids from all hard floor types, leaving surfaces super clean and hygienic,” said HIZERO CEO Sam Li.

In April, the HIZERO F803 all-in-one cordless bionic floor cleaner won the bronze Edison Awards. It was handpicked for the best-of-the-best accolade by 3,000 of the world’s top ranking senior business executives, academics, and innovation professionals.

More than a vacuum cleaner

The HIZERO F803 hard floor cleaner utilises a revolutionary polymer roller head to pick up liquids, dust, and other particles and then seamlessly separates them into separate, waste-specific compartments – leaving behind a clean, air dry floor.

And because its technology is not a vacuum system, the HIZERO F803 reduces the risk of dust particles from laminate and other hard floors being resuspended, which is good news for those suffering breathing conditions sparked by airborne allergens.

HIZERO UltimateClean™ technology differs from traditional vacuum cleaners and mops because it captures dust, allergen particles, and other waste and transports them into specific compartments built into the sleek and slender body of the HIZERO F803, making it a premium choice for people with an allergy or asthma.

The new HIZERO F803 all-in-one cordless bionic floor cleaner harnesses HIZERO UltimateClean™ technology to give consumers a contemporary, hyper efficient, and versatile appliance that mops, sweeps, dries, and self-cleans with greater performance than competitors using traditional wet floor washing technologies.

Key benefits of the HIZERO F803

  • Cordless
  • Extra-long 60 minute run time from a full charge
  • One full charge enables the one-litre water tank to clean 100 square metres of hard floor before recharging is required
  • Easy disposal of water from waste separation compartments
  • All dust is collected in the dirty water tank; dust is not transferred from floor to air
  • Thoughtfully designed to be lightweight and manoeuvrable
  • Only 60db — quieter than traditional vacuum cleaners (about 70db and up)

The HIZERO F803 is the latest in the range of state-of-the-art upright HIZERO Bionic Floor cordless hard-floor cleaner. HIZERO harnesses revolutionary bionic technology design approaches to give consumers a truly versatile appliance that sweeps, washes, dries, and self-cleans. Earlier recognition includes the U.S. 2018 VDTA Innovative Cleaning Technology of the Year Award, Malaysia’s HOMEDEC 2017 Innovative Product Prize, and a nomination for the 2019 IHA global innovation award.

The new hard floor cleaner will be rolled out into key markets starting in China, Australia, Malaysia, Singapore and elsewhere in the USA and Europe from mid-2021. The company will also unveil its own HIZERO branded eco-friendly disinfectant liquid for global distribution.

The HIZERO F803 is now available at major departmental stores, specialised home appliance stores and major online platforms like Lazada and Shopee. Recommended retail price is SGD 999.00.

More product images and videos can be found in the press kit.

AWS recognised G-AsiaPacific’s consistent performance in the implementation and development of AWS cloud solutions in Malaysia and across ASEAN, with a significant annual recurring revenue during the 2H2020 to 1Q2021 period.

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach – 15 July 2021 – G-AsiaPacific Sdn Bhd (“G-AsiaPacific”) was named 2021 Amazon Web Services (“AWS”) Consulting Partner of the Year (Malaysia) at the recent AWS Partner Summit, in recognition of G-AsiaPacific’s consistent contribution and robust growth in the development of AWS cloud solutions for enterprises, corporates, small and medium enterprises (“SMEs”), mid-market companies, and multinational companies (“MNCs”) in Malaysia and across ASEAN.

G-AsiaPacific is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bursa Malaysia Ace Market-listed company K-One Technology Berhad. G-AsiaPacific and AWS have been collaborating since 2012, when the company was appointed AWS Consulting Partner and AWS Solution Provider. In 2017, G-AsiaPacific became AWS Advanced Consulting Partner. This was followed by joining the AWS Public Sector Partner Program in 2018.

Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of G-AsiaPacific, Mark Goh Kiang Kiat (吴强结), said: “We are honoured to receive this 2021 AWS Consulting Partner of the Year – Malaysia – award.

Microsoft unveils Windows 365 — ushering in a new category of computing

Windows 365 will deliver a full, personalized PC experience from the cloud to any device, giving workers and organizations power, simplicity, and security for hybrid work.

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 15 July 2021 – Microsoft Corporation today announced Windows 365 – a cloud service that introduces a new way to experience Windows 10 or Windows 11 to businesses of all sizes. Windows 365 takes the operating system to the Microsoft Cloud, streaming the full Windows experience – apps, data, and settings – to personal or corporate devices. Secure by design and built with the principles of Zero Trust, Windows 365 secures and stores information in the cloud, not on the device, providing a secure, productive experience for workers from interns and contractors to software developers and industrial designers. Windows 365 also creates a new hybrid personal computing category called Cloud PC, which uses both the power of the cloud and the capabilities of the device to provide a full, personalized Windows experience. The announcement represents a groundbreaking development as organizations around the world grapple with the best ways to facilitate hybrid work models where employees are both on-site and distributed across the globe.

“With Windows 365, we’re creating a new category: the Cloud PC,” said Satya Nadella, chairman and CEO, Microsoft. “Just like applications were brought to the cloud with SaaS, we are now bringing the operating system to the cloud, providing organizations with greater flexibility and a secure way to empower their workforce to be more productive and connected, regardless of location.”

A new computing paradigm for hybrid work

As the pandemic begins to ease in parts of the world, a new way of working is emerging, transformed by virtual processes and remote collaboration. In this more distributed environment, employees need access to corporate resources across locations and devices — and with cybersecurity threats on the rise, securing those resources is paramount.

“Hybrid work has fundamentally changed the role of technology in organizations today,” said Jared Spataro, corporate vice president, Microsoft 365. “With workforces more disparate than ever before, organizations need a new way to deliver a great productivity experience with increased versatility, simplicity, and security. Cloud PC is an exciting, new category of hybrid personal computing that turns any device into a personalized, productive, and secure digital workspace. Today’s announcement of Windows 365 is just the beginning of what will be possible as we blur the lines between the device and the cloud.”

Windows 365 helps employers solve challenges they’ve faced since long before the pandemic. Workers expect greater flexibility and more options to work from different locations, while still ensuring the security of the organization’s data. Seasonal workers can cycle on and off teams without the logistical challenges of issuing new hardware or securing personal devices — allowing the organization to scale for busy periods more efficiently and securely. And companies can easily ensure specialized workers in creative, analytics, engineering or scientific roles have greater compute power and secure access to critical applications that they need.

Versatile, simple, secure: the transformational impact of Windows 365

By building on the power of the Windows operating system and the strength of the cloud, Windows 365 gives any organization greater peace of mind in three key ways:

  • Powerful. With instant-on boot to their personal Cloud PC, users can stream all their applications, tools, data, and settings from the cloud across any device. Windows 365 provides the full PC experience in the cloud. The cloud also provides versatility in processing power and storage, enabling IT to scale up or down, based on their needs. With a choice of either Windows 10 or Windows 11 (once it is generally available later in 2021), organizations can choose the Cloud PC that works for them with per-user per-month pricing.
  • Simple. With a Cloud PC, users can log in and pick back up where they left off across devices, providing a simple and familiar Windows experience delivered by the cloud. For IT, Windows 365 also simplifies deployment, updates, and management — and unlike other solutions, Windows 365 doesn’t require any virtualization experience. With Windows 365 optimized for the endpoint, IT can easily procure, deploy, and manage Cloud PCs for their organization just like they manage physical PCs through Microsoft Endpoint Manager. Small and mid-size businesses can purchase Windows 365 directly or through a cloud service provider, and set-up their organization with Cloud PCs with just a few clicks. Microsoft also continues to innovate in Azure Virtual Desktop for those organizations with deep virtualization experience who want more customization and flexibility options.
  • Secure. Windows 365 is secure by design, leveraging the power of the cloud and the principles of Zero Trust. Information is secured and stored in the cloud, not on the device. Always up to date and building on the strength of rich Microsoft security capabilities and baselines, Windows 365 simplifies security and recommends the best security settings for the environment at hand.

New opportunities for the Microsoft partner ecosystem

For decades, Microsoft partners have been at the center of how we deliver technologies and business transformation to customers around the world. The depth of Microsoft’s cloud offerings and technology portfolio gives partners the power to build innovative, industry-specific solutions. Windows 365 will allow our partners to continue to make more possible.

From systems integrators to managed service providers to ISVs to OEMs, the new Cloud PC category creates opportunity for our partners to deliver new Windows experiences in the cloud.

Organizations will look to systems integrators and managed service providers to help them get the most out of their entire Windows estate. ISVs can continue to build Windows apps and now deliver them in the cloud to help businesses work in new ways as they continue to digitally transform. And original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) gain an opportunity to integrate Windows 365 into their broad portfolio of services alongside their devices’ robust features and secure hardware.

“To be their best in a new world of work, employees need workplace technology that’s familiar, easy to use, secure and always available,” said Veit Siegenheim, global modern workplace lead, Avanade. “With Windows 365, Microsoft is capitalizing on the power of the cloud to empower productivity anywhere, across any device and elevate the workplace experience.”

Availability

Windows 365 will be generally available to businesses of all sizes starting on Aug. 2, 2021. You can learn more at https://Microsoft.com/Windows-365.com.
