With Thrilling Finals, Teqball Shines at the Asian Beach Games

April 29, 2026

BUDAPEST, Hungary , April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Teqball’s campaign at the Asian Beach Games came to a spectacular conclusion in Sanya, delivering several days of high-quality competition, exciting rallies, and an outstanding atmosphere in a truly unique beachside setting. Featuring 14 nations from across Asia, the tournament showcased the sport’s growing strength in the region, with athletes competing in three medal events – Women’s Doubles, Mixed Doubles, and Men’s Doubles – each producing finals worthy of the occasion.

At the end of an unforgettable competition, Thailand emerged as the standout nation, claiming gold in all three categories and underlining its status as one of Asia’s leading forces in Teqball.

Women’s Doubles

Jutatip Kuntatong / Areeya Homdee (THA) defeated Sol Gyong Cha / Hyo Gyong Kim (PRK) 2–0

The Women’s Doubles final opened the medal matches with a composed and dominant display from the Thai pair. Jutatip Kuntatong and Areeya Homdee controlled the rhythm of the match from the opening points, with their chemistry, experience, and consistency proving decisive throughout.

The North Korean duo responded strongly in the second set and managed to make the contest far more competitive, but Thailand remained in control in the crucial moments to secure a straight-sets victory and the first gold medal of the finals.

Mixed Doubles

Suphawadi Wongkhamchan / Phakpong Dejaroen (THA) defeated Il Sin Kim / Song Han (PRK) 2–0

The Mixed Doubles final delivered another compelling Thailand–North Korea showdown. Suphawadi Wongkhamchan and Phakpong Dejaroen started confidently, taking command of the opening set with sharp attacking play and excellent coordination.

North Korea once again showed great determination in the second set, closing the gap and pushing the Thai pair into longer, more intense rallies, but Thailand’s quality proved decisive as they closed out the match in two sets to secure their second gold medal of the tournament.

Men’s Doubles

Sorrasak Thaosiri / Jirati Chanliang (THA) defeated Abdulrahman Ahmed Radhi / Ali Jalil Mezher Alelayawi (IRQ) 2–1

The Men’s Doubles final provided a fitting finale to the competition and carried extra significance, as it renewed the rivalry between Thailand and Iraq following their memorable clash at the recent Asian Youth Games, where Iraq had emerged victorious.

This time, Thailand turned the table. After taking the opening set, the Thai pair were pushed hard by a spirited Iraqi comeback in the second, with Iraq producing some exceptional Teqball to level the match. In the deciding set, however, Thailand’s composure, energy, and experience prevailed as Sorrasak Thaosiri and Jirati Chanliang powered to victory, completing a remarkable clean sweep of gold medals for the nation.

Husain Al Mussalam, OCA Director General

“Teqball has added great value to our Asian Beach Games Sanya sports programme. It fits naturally within Asian sports culture and continues to grow strongly across the continent. With seven countries winning medals, today’s finals showed exciting competition and confirmed Asia’s strength in Teqball. We look forward to continuing this journey at future Asian Games events.”

A Remarkable Debut for North Korea

One of the standout stories of the tournament came from North Korea, who made their first-ever appearance at an international Teqball competition. Their immediate impact was extraordinary, reaching two finals and returning home with two silver medals in Women’s Doubles and Mixed Doubles.

Such a debut is a strong reflection of Teqball’s growing reach across Asia and highlights the impressive development of the sport in North Korea, where emerging talent has already shown the ability to compete at continental level from the very beginning.

Final Medal Table

Rank	Nation	Gold	Silver	Bronze	Total
1	Thailand	3	0	0	3
2	DPRK	0	2	0	2
3	Iraq	0	1	0	1
4	Myanmar	0	0	3	3
5	China	0	0	1	1
5	Lebanon	0	0	1	1
5	Cambodia	0	0	1	1

The conclusion of Teqball at the Asian Beach Games marks another important milestone in the sport’s development across Asia. The quality of competition, the remarkable atmosphere, and the growing number of nations competing at a high level all reflected the impressive progress Teqball continues to make in the region.

Dr Huszar Viktor, FITEQ Chairman

“On behalf of the International Teqball Federation and, in particular, the Asian Teqball Family, I would like to express our gratitude to OCA for having included our sport, Teqball, in the sports programme for the 6th Asian Beach Games here in Sanya. I also wish to extend our thanks to the local organising committee for the excellent cooperation as we jointly delivered the three previous days of true excitement with thrilling finals today in our spectacular beach-front venue. And many thanks go to the volunteers and staff for their tireless work and heartfelt commitment contributing to this shining success. I congratulate to the finalists and every athlete for their excellent sporting achievements and look forward to delivering Teqball throughout the continent to fans, spectators, communities and schools with the best elite and youth athletes Asia offers. Thank you OCA, thank you Sanya, thank you China.”

With momentum building strongly, attention now turns to the next major continental showcase — the Asian Games, set to take place in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan, from 19 September to 4 October 2026 — where Asia’s finest athletes will once again have the opportunity to showcase the very best of Teqball on one of sport’s biggest stages.

Neutrinos Named a Leader in Everest Group’s 2026 Insurance-specific IDP PEAK Matrix® Assessment

Recognition reflects the industry shift from document digitization to decision-ready data in insurance operations

NEW YORK and SINGAPORE, April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Neutrinos, a leader in AI-powered intelligent automation for insurers, has been named a Leader in Everest Group’s 2026 Insurance-specific Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) Products PEAK Matrix® Assessment.

Neutrinos was evaluated as part of Everest Group’s assessment of IDP providers based on market impact, vision, and capability within its PEAK Matrix® framework.

Across insurance operations, document handling has become one of the most persistent drivers of inefficiency. While digitization solved access, competitive advantage now comes from converting incoming documents into structured, decision-ready intelligence at the point of entry.

In the 2026 Intelligent Document Processing reports, Everest Group examines how providers support document understanding, data extraction, and workflow orchestration to support document-intensive workflows, improve operational efficiency, reduce manual intervention, and address compliance requirements.

“Neutrinos has been positioned as a Leader in the Insurance-specific Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) Products PEAK Matrix® Assessment 2026,” said Vaibhav Bansal, Vice President, Everest Group. “Its strong insurance focus, coupled with investments in a dedicated IDP Center of Excellence (CoE) offering 24×7 support, has strengthened its market position. The platform demonstrates deep domain alignment through capabilities such as validation of extracted applicant data against underwriting guidelines, auto-generation of underwriting summaries, and automatic detection and classification of insurance service requests. Additionally, its portfolio of pre-built, insurance-specific solutions, spanning KYC, claims processing, underwriting, and claims validation, helps accelerate time-to-value for insurers.”

“Digitization was only the starting point. The next phase of insurance will be defined by how quickly insurers can convert documents into real-time, decision-grade intelligence,” said Samik Ghosh, Co-founder and CEO at Neutrinos. “That is the transformation Neutrinos is built for, moving from manual data handling to intelligent, autonomous decisioning across underwriting and claims. This recognition reinforces the direction the industry is already moving toward.”

The challenge is not access to documents, but what happens after they arrive. Unstructured inputs, fragmented validation, and manual interpretation create delays, inconsistencies, and unnecessary touchpoints. Neutrinos addresses this by reading, reasoning, and validating incoming information against underwriting and claims logic, converting documents into decision-ready data, and triggering downstream actions in real time. What once required manual effort across multiple steps becomes an orchestrated end-to-end flow, enabling teams to focus on risk selection, claims resolution, and customer service.

April 29, 2026

DUBAI, UAE, April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), the leading global financial centre in the Middle East, Africa and South Asia region, announced strong momentum during the first three months of 2026, attracting new global, regional and local clients.

DIFC

775 new companies established their regional presence in DIFC during the first quarter of 2026, reflecting the Centre’s prominence for finance, business, and innovation. This represents a 62 per cent increase on the same period in 2025, when 478 companies set up in the Centre. Performance was particularly strong in March 2026 with 258 companies establishing a presence, up from 162 in March 2025, reflecting 59 per cent year-on-year growth.

The continued influx of firms reflects a broader shift in global financial flows, as institutions and investors reaffirm their commitment to Dubai and DIFC despite ongoing global uncertainty. In this context, Dubai has emerged as a preferred global hub, reinforcing momentum towards its ambition to rank among the world’s top four financial centres.

New companies establishing in DIFC include Arrowpoint Investment Partners (AIP Management), Braemar Securities, Blue Mountain Capacity, Janus Henderson Investors, Keystone Financial Solutions, National Bank of Canada, Photon Dance, Prospera Wealth Management, RV Capital Management and Ryan Specialty (DIFC) Limited.

HE Essa Kazim, Governor, DIFC said: “Dubai’s standing as a globally top ten ranked financial centre, particularly during a period of global uncertainty, reflects the strength of the Emirate’s vision and the central role DIFC continues to play in delivering it. DIFC’s contribution to enhancing investor confidence, strengthening legal and regulatory transparency, and attracting global capital remains instrumental in reinforcing Dubai’s position as a leading financial hub. This sustained progress supports the ambitions of the Dubai Economic Agenda (D33), further cementing Dubai’s role as a key pillar in the global economic landscape.”

Reflecting sustained demand from regulated financial institutions, DIFC recorded a 21 per cent increase in financial services authorisations during the first quarter of 2026 compared to the same period last year.

158 foundations registered in DIFC during the first quarter of 2026, representing 108 per cent growth since the same period last year.

DIFC completed DIFC Square ahead of schedule, achieving full occupancy prior to handover. Progress on DIFC’s landmark Zabeel District expansion continues as planned, creating a future-ready destination that blends commercial, residential, and lifestyle offerings.

The District 10 Children’s House is a vibrant hub for children aged 7 to 15, offering diverse classes, clubs, and competitions that empower over 10,000 learners annually to build creativity, discipline, and real-life skills.

“We deeply appreciate STARTRADER’s commitment to creating a space where children can truly grow. More than a court, it is now a place our learners feel proud of and connected to. Since its completion, we’ve seen clear growth in their energy and engagement. Its impact is already visible every day.” — Nguyễn Thị Ngọc Hiếu, General Manager, The District 10 Children’s House.

Total revenue

Total revenues were RMB228.7 million (US$32.7 million)^[1]，a 24.9% year-over-year decrease.

Hotel revenues were RMB189.9 million (US$27.2 million)^[1], a 20.9% year-over-year decrease due to a 9.5% year-over-year decrease in RevPAR, the closure of 15 L&O hotels since the first quarter of 2025 due to lease expirations and strategic reviews. The decrease was partially offset by revenues from new openings.

Restaurant revenues were RMB39.1 million (US$5.6 million)^[1], a 39.9% year-over-year decrease, mainly due to a 21.8% decrease in ADS and the decrease in the number of L&O stores.

Total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025 were RMB1,097.4 million (US$156.9 million)^[1], an 18.3% year-over-year decrease.

Total revenues from leased-and-operated, or L&O, hotels and restaurants were RMB106.2million (US$15.2 million)^[1], a 10.9% year-over-year decrease.

Total revenues from L&O hotels were RMB85.0 million (US$12.2 million)^[1], a 6.6% year-over-year decrease. The decrease was primarily attributable to a 4.6% year-over-year decrease in L&O hotels’ RevPAR, the closure of 15 L&O hotels since the first quarter of 2025, and the reduction in sublease income resulting from the closure of L&O hotels, offset by revenues from the opening of 5 L&O hotels during 2025.

Total revenues from L&O restaurants were RMB21.2 million (US$3.0 million)^[1], a 25.6 % year-over-year decrease. The decrease was mainly due to the closure of 6 L&O stores since the first quarter of 2025 and a 14.1% year-over-year decrease in L&O stores’ ADS. Same L&O store revenues in the fourth quarter of 2025 decreased by 10.4% year over year.

Total revenues from L&O hotels and restaurants for the year ended December 31, 2025 were RMB487.9 million (US$69.8 million)^[1], an 18.2% year-over-year decrease.

Total revenues from franchised-and-managed, or F&M, hotels and restaurants were RMB105.1 million (US$15.0 million)^[1], a 31.3% year-over-year decrease.

Total revenues from F&M hotels were RMB104.2 million (US$14.9 million)^[1], a 29.7% year-over-year decrease, primarily attributable to a temporary waiver of RMB21.0 million of management fees for hotels facing business difficulties, and a decline of RMB6.9 million in membership revenues. The decrease was partially due to the amortization cycle started from the pandemic period three years ago, in which the sales of membership cards were historically underperformed.

Guidance

Taking into account the recovery in long-term trends and short-term industry fluctuations, we expect the decline of total revenues of our organic hotel business for the full year of 2026 to be flat compared to their 2025 levels.

The guidance set forth above reflects the Company’s current and preliminary views based on its recovery and may not be indicative of the final financial results for any future periods or the full year.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and core net income, as we present them, are useful financial metrics to assess our operating and financial performance before the impact of investing and financing transactions, income taxes and certain non-core and non-recurring items in our financial statements.

The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and core net income should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by other charges and gains we consider to be outside the ordinary course of our business.

The use of Adjusted EBITDA and core net income has certain limitations because it does not reflect all items of income and expenses that affect our operations. Items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA and core net income are significant components in understanding and assessing our operating and financial performance. Depreciation and amortization expense for various long-term assets, income tax and share-based compensation have been and will be incurred and are not reflected in the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA. Each of these items should also be considered in the overall evaluation of our results. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA and core net income do not consider capital expenditures and other investing activities and should not be considered as a measure of our liquidity. We compensate for these limitations by providing the relevant disclosure of our depreciation and amortization, interest expense/income, gains/losses from investments in equity securities, income tax expenses, share-based compensation, share of loss in equity investees, government subsidies and other relevant items both in our reconciliations to the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures and in our consolidated financial statements, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance.

The terms Adjusted EBITDA and core net income are not defined under U.S. GAAP, and Adjusted EBITDA and core net income are not measures of net income, operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. When assessing our operating and financial performance, you should not consider this data in isolation or as a substitute for our net income, operating income or any other operating performance measure that is calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our Adjusted EBITDA and core net income may not be comparable to Adjusted EBITDA and core net income or similarly titled measures utilized by other companies since such other companies may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA and core net income in the same manner as we do.

Reconciliations of the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA and core net income, to the consolidated statement of operations information are included at the end of this press release.

ShengShu Technology Unveils World Action Model “Motubrain”: One Brain, Infinite Possibilities for Robotic Intelligence

Advertorial Desk

April 29, 2026

From understanding and generating the world to taking action, Motubrain tops two global benchmarks and redefines the embodied AI landscape

SINGAPORE, April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — ShengShu Technology today announces Motubrain, a World Action Model that replaces multiple task-specific systems with a single, unified model that functions as a robotic brain for the physical world. Ranking highly on both WorldArena and RoboTwin 2.0, two of the field’s most rigorous benchmarks in embodied world models, Motubrain marks a decisive shift in an industry where robotic systems are typically built from task-specific or specialized systems.

Best known for its leading video model Vidu, ShengShu Technology and its advancements in generative video for robotics earmarks an industry first. Generative video has laid the foundation for simulating robots in real-world environments at scale. Motubrain builds on this by turning those simulations into action, by enabling robots to learn from diverse, large-scale pre-training data while reducing reliance on traditional physical data collection.

“A true world model must be able to build a unified representation of the real world and predict how it evolves,” said Jun Zhu, Founder of ShengShu Technology. “Video is a critical foundation of that intelligence because it naturally captures time, space, motion, causality, and physical dynamics at scale. We believe general world models should not be built as stitched-together modules, but as a unified architecture that brings together perception, reasoning, prediction, generation, and action in a single system. That is what can ultimately bridge the digital world and the physical world.”

Global Rankings: Among the Top Performers in Embodied AI

Motubrain has delivered top-tier performance on leading embodied AI benchmarks. Ranked among the industry’s best models for robotic perception, anticipation, and planning in the physical world, Motubrain achieved a 63.77 EWM Score on WorldArena. It has also been recognized as one of the strongest performers on RoboTwin 2.0, scoring an average of 96.0 across 50 predetermined tasks, and remains the only model to exceed 95.0 in randomized environments.

The Architecture Behind the Breakthrough

Motubrain’s core breakthrough is unifying the “seen world” and the “actions to take” within a single model, and it is built on four core principles that together redefine what an embodied AI model for training robots can be:

One Brain, Many Skills: A unified model that can handle a wide range of tasks and gets smarter and stronger as task variety increases. Training each skill one by one is no longer required, and unlike conventional models, the wider the range of complex tasks it handles at once, Motubrain’s success rate and reliability with multi-tasking increases.
One Brain, Universal Across Robots: Motubrain isn’t built for a single robot model. It’s designed to be a universal brain that can power many kinds of robots. This breaks the old “one robot, one model” pattern. And as more robot types, real‑world scenarios, and data join the ecosystem, Motubrain keeps getting smarter, which in turn helps every robot in the network perform better.
One Brain, End-to-End: Motubrain learns entire task sequences directly. It can handle complex, multi‑step tasks involving up to 10 atomic actions, also known as the smallest unit of movement in robotics, far beyond the typical 2–3 atomic actions. So the robot no longer sees isolated actions; it sees a complete, meaningful task from start to finish.
One Brain, Able to Anticipate: Predicts the world while driving action. Environmental change, task progression, and execution are processed together inside one model, not assembled from separate subsystems.

To deliver this, Motubrain is built on a Unified Multimodal Model that treats video and action as two continuous modalities to be learned together. A single training run gives it five capabilities at once: vision-language-action control (VLA), world modelling, video generation, inverse dynamics modelling (IDM), and joint video-action prediction. A three-stream Mixture-of-Transformers (MoT) then brings video, action, and language together by drawing on the strengths of existing pretrained models, enabling Motubrain to understand environments, follow language instructions, predict what happens next, and generate actions all at the same time. Unlike systems that chain together separate perception, planning, and control modules, Motbrain processes the full loop.

Motbrain learns from a far broader range of data than conventional AI models that train robots, including unlabelled video, task recordings without language annotations, and data from different robot embodiments. A proprietary latent action framework extracts physical motion directly from large-scale video, including human footage, simulation data, and multi-robot task trajectories, without requiring the data to be labelled or tagged to indicate specific actions. This broader learning paradigm translates into strong scaling behavior. In task-scaling evaluations, Motubrain’s average success rate continued to rise as the number of training tasks increased, reaching approximately 92% at 50 tasks, while Pi-0.5 declined to roughly 68% over the same range. In data-scaling evaluations, Motubrain also maintained a clear advantage as the number of training episodes increased, achieving about 92% average success at 27,500 episodes, compared with roughly 85% for Motus and 68% for Pi-0.5. A three-stage pipeline built on a six-layer data pyramid lets Motubrain generalise skills across environments and robot types while remaining precise enough for fine-grained deployment scenarios.

Motubrain understands what is happening around it, anticipates what may happen next, and responds in real time. In real-world tests, robots trained with Motubrain have carried out complete, multi-step tasks with a level of adaptability beyond most conventional robotic systems. For example, they can insert flowers into a vase under changing conditions and use both arms independently for different goals. Most notably, Motubrain-trained robots demonstrate a remarkable ability to understand and predict outcomes during execution: when a ladle comes up empty while scooping, they can recognise that nothing has been collected and automatically attempt the scooping action again, despite never being trained on retry data. This marks the shift from robots that merely execute tasks to robots that truly complete them.

Training the Next Generation of Robots

Motubrain is not a research model awaiting commercialisation; it is operational. Several leading robotics companies are already using MotuBrain in active robot training programs, deploying its cross-embodiment, multi-skill capabilities on real hardware across industrial, commercial, and home environments.

To further enhance real-world performance, ShengShu has partnered with Astribot, SimpleAI, and Anyverse Dynamics to advance a general-purpose embodied AI brain, focusing on foundation model evolution, multimodal data integration, robust data infrastructure, and full-stack hardware–software optimisation.

Connecting the Dots: Alibaba’s Investment and Motubrain

Motubrain is ShengShu’s next strategic pillar, alongside Vidu, the company’s flagship generative video platform, which its recent Vidu Q3 ranked No.1 in the first global Reference-to-Video leaderboard released by SuperCLUE. The two products are distinct in application but continuous at the foundation: the same world model technology that makes Vidu one of the world’s leading video generation systems gives Motubrain its capacity to predict and act in the physical world. Where Vidu generates the world, Motubrain acts in it.

Backed by a $293 million Series B led by Alibaba Cloud and with investors including the China Internet Investment Fund, TAL Education Group, Baidu Ventures, and Luminous Ventures, ShengShu enters the Physical AI era as a leader, achieving successful live deployments and boasting the highest benchmarks for its unique ability to both deeply understand and effectively act upon its tasks.
