XGRIDS at NVIDIA GTC 2026: Bridging Real-World Spaces and Physical AI Through Real2Sim

SAN JOSE, Calif., March 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — For robots to operate reliably in the real world, they must train in environments that accurately represent it. This is the core challenge behind Real2Sim—and the focus of XGRIDS’ presence at GTC 2026 (March 16–19, San Jose).

XGRIDS’ spatial intelligence solution now supports NVIDIA Omniverse NuRec for OpenUSD-based rendering, and appeared across multiple venues: a featured Startup Pitch, robotics demonstrations within NVIDIA’s ecosystem, and a joint showcase with Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Real2Sim: From Physical Space to AI Training

During Startup Pitch, XGRIDS Director Sunny Liao posed a central question:
How do you build training environments that truly reflect real-world conditions?

XGRIDS’ answer is a pipeline built on real-world data. By combining LiDAR and computer vision for multimodal spatial perception with high-fidelity 3D reconstruction, physical environments can be transformed into usable world models for simulation.

Compared to manual 3D modeling, this approach:

  • Reduces the cost of building high-fidelity environments
  • Enables continuous updates as real spaces evolve
  • Keeps simulation closer to real-world deployment

Developers at GTC noted this offers a more practical path for robotics training and validation.

Spatial Intelligence for Physical AI

Beyond the Inception stage, XGRIDS’ solutions appeared at multiple showcase areas across GTC.

At the NVIDIA Robotics session, XGRIDS demonstrated its solution for embodied AI systems. By deploying spatial perception and modeling on quadruped robot platforms, robots can continuously map and understand their environments, using full 3D spatial structure for path planning, behavioral decision-making, and task execution rather than relying solely on local sensors for immediate obstacle avoidance.

It demonstrated how spatial intelligence integrates into embodied AI systems—enabling robots to understand full 3D environments for path planning, decision-making, and task execution.

At the AWS showcase, XGRIDS presented a complete Real2Sim workflow—from capture to world model generation to simulation training.

Looking Ahead

XGRIDS’ long-term focus remains consistent: building spatial intelligence infrastructure that converts real-world environments into world models AI systems can understand, reason about, and train on.

GTC 2026 marked a step in bringing this work into the Physical AI ecosystem. As embodied AI systems move from labs into warehouses, cities, and construction sites, the demand for accurate, scalable digital representations of environments will only grow.

XGRIDS is building the capture-to-simulation layer that makes that possible.

Genius Coffee Issues Non-Financial Goods Token GCT, Exclusively Launching on RWA.LTD

A Breakthrough Integration of Non-Financial Tokenization and the Real-World Goods Economy

“Directly Addressing the Retail Gap in Freshly Roasted Coffee Beans”

“Building a Scalable, Liquid, and Social Coffee Ecosystem”

HONG KONG, March 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Genius Coffee officially announces the launch of the Genius Coffee Token (GCT), which is planned to be exclusively listed on the RWA.LTD platform on 19th March 2026.

The total supply of GCT is fixed at 100 million tokens. GCT represents redemption rights for physically freshly roasted coffee beans. Through the model of “on-chain rights confirmation → transfer of entitlements → on-demand redemption → roast-to-order with immediate delivery,” GCT addresses the long-standing industry pain point that freshly roasted coffee beans are difficult to retail at scale. It reconstructs an integrated consumer pathway of “buy, hold, redeem, and enjoy” for coffee enthusiasts, while also creating a digital language for social interaction within the coffee community.

By designating GCT as a method for sale of physical goods, it has been intended as non-“Virtual Asset”, as defined in section 53ZRA of the Anti‑Money Laundering and Counter‑Terrorist Financing Ordinance (AMLO) in Hong Kong, because it does not fell into the initial definition of “Virtual Asset” , and even though it does, it ultimately fits into the definition of the “Limited Purpose Digital Token ” defined in section 53ZR of AMLO. Therefore GCT does not fall within the regulatory scope of the Virtual Asset Trading Platform (VATP) licensing regime. GCT carries no investment attributes and serves solely as a digital voucher for the redemption of physical coffee products and related services.

Reshaping the Coffee Consumption Model

GCT is not merely an optimization of existing sales channels; it represents a structural reconfiguration of the production, roasting, and consumption relationships surrounding coffee beans through a novel allocation of rights and liquidity mechanisms.

Through GCT, coffee enthusiasts are able to acquire and hold tokens representing future redemption rights, indirectly benefiting from economies of scale while transforming freshly roasted coffee beans into a holdable and transferable entitlement. When actual demand arises, token holders may redeem GCT on demand in exchange for freshly roasted coffee beans at that time, enjoying a true “roast-to-order” experience — eliminating pre-produced inventory, locking in freshness immediately after roasting, and delivering directly to customers (within Hong Kong only). GCT breaks the traditional scale dependency associated with freshly roasted coffee retail. Individual consumers and small-batch purchasers can access the same level of immediate freshness without requiring bulk ordering or premium pricing. Freshness is no longer contingent upon order volume or price premiums; rather, it is achieved organically through rights-based allocation.

GCT also possesses transferability. Token holders may transfer GCT to other coffee enthusiasts, enabling it to function not only as a consumption voucher but also as a communicative medium and social symbol within coffee culture. In doing so, GCT facilitates the formation of a liquid, scalable, and high-engagement coffee community, generating new growth momentum for brand operations.

Over the longer term, GCT represents an extensible commercial and cultural ecosystem. With GCT as its core, Genius Coffee plans to develop a multi-layered industry ecosystem, progressively introducing coffee tasting sessions, brewing workshops, offline gatherings, and other experiential offerings. Token holders will thus gain participatory experiences that transcend mere transactions, reactivating the communal essence at the heart of coffee culture.

Breaking the Financial Stereotype of RWA Tokenization

Beyond the coffee consumption sector, GCT represents a breakthrough example of how real-world asset (RWA) tokenization can shed its conventional financial label and integrate meaningfully with the non-financial goods economy. By deeply combining blockchain technology advantages with the commodity economy, GCT expands the application of RWA tokenization from the financial domain into the mass consumer market. It demonstrates the practical utility and versatility of RWA tokenization, establishes a new benchmark for blockchain-enabled consumer industries, and further enhances the long-term sustainability of the broader ecosystem.

RWA.LTD, as the world’s first platform dedicated to non-financial RWA tokens, provides GCT with full lifecycle services, including token issuance, secondary trading, and physical redemption.

Genius Coffee Representative stated: “GCT leverages blockchain technology to address the long-standing industry challenge that freshly roasted beans are difficult to retail at scale. We are building a coffee ecosystem centered on community connectivity and freshness as its core value. Through blockchain-enabled innovation, we are redefining the logic of coffee consumption.”

RWA.LTD CEO Tony Fu commented: “As the world’s first exchange focused exclusively on non-financial RWA tokens, we are honored to serve as the exclusive launch partner for GCT. We are committed to demonstrating that RWA tokenization is not limited to financial asset scenarios; it also holds broad application potential within the goods economy. Drawing on our extensive experience and practical expertise in non-financial RWA tokenization, we have strong confidence in the structural design and compliance risk management of such projects. In this collaboration, GCT’s compliance framework and project design provide an innovative paradigm for RWA implementation in the mass consumer sector. Looking ahead, we will continue to explore additional non-financial RWA application scenarios and promote diversified industry development.”

TCL is a “Doer”: Embedding ESG to Create Positive Impact across the Global Value Chain

TCL Founder and Chairman Li Dongsheng in an In-Depth Dialogue with the United Nations Global Compact

SHENZHEN, China, March 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — TCL Founder and Chairman Li Dongsheng recently participated in the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) “ESG+20 Sustainability Leaders Interview Series.” During the session, he spoke with Ms. Liu Meng, Head of China Office with the UNGC. Li shared how TCL implements ESG principles into its global operations, advances green and low-carbon transformation, and promotes coordinated development across its industrial chain. The discussion also highlighted how TCL invests in communities through its global value chain to contribute to mutually beneficial outcomes.

TCL CSOT Wetland Park

On green and carbon reduction practices, Li noted that manufacturing is a major energy consumer and companies must pursue innovation in production technologies, processes, and workflows to achieve energy savings. For example, TCL CSOT implemented multiple energy-saving measures across its manufacturing operations in 2024, achieving electricity savings of 220,000 MWh. In October 2025, the company announced the construction of a printed OLED production line designed to significantly reduce power consumption compared with traditional vacuum evaporation processes, reducing carbon emissions at the source. On the product side, TCL’s FreshIN energy-saving air conditioner was honored with the “AI Energy-Saving Technology Gold Award” at IFA 2025 in Berlin, for its carbon footprint-reducing green design. At the industry level, TCL Zhonghuan supports the global development of clean energy with its core products and contributes to the transformation of global energy infrastructure.

As a leading company within its industrial chain, TCL, through TCL Industries and TCL Technology, has consistently encouraged upstream and downstream partners to implement ESG principles. The company has established supplier requirements covering labor rights protection and operational compliance, promoting responsible practices across the value chain.

Li emphasized that in its global expansion, TCL operates to “the highest standards” when navigating diverse regulatory environments. From its acquisition of Thomson’s color TV business and Alcatel’s mobile phone business in 2004 to the establishment of manufacturing bases in Mexico and Vietnam, TCL has evolved from exporting products to co-building local industrial capabilities. Sustainability principles are embedded in its global operations, creating value for local economies and communities, as well as employees.

“For advanced manufacturing, technological innovation is the most critical core capability,” Li noted. TCL invests approximately RMB12 billion (about USD 1.74 billion) annually in R&D and has accumulated 124,000 patents, including nearly 20,000 PCT patents. In recent years, TCL has integrated large AI models into its intelligent manufacturing systems, improving efficiency and quality and shortening R&D cycles. In 2024, these initiatives generated RMB530 million (around USD 76.8 million) in economic benefits for TCL CSOT.

Li emphasized that the essence of brand reputation lies in fulfilling social responsibility and earning consumer trust. TCL has fully incorporated ESG into the business strategies and annual plans of all its business units and publishes ESG reports annually, demonstrating transparency and accountability. In 2025, TCL also became a Worldwide Olympic and Paralympic Partner, attracting significant global market visibility. That year, its sales in the European market increased by 30%, reflecting the mutually reinforcing relationship between commercial performance and social value.

Since officially joining the UNGC in July 2024, TCL has been committed to supporting the organization’s Ten Principles across human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption, and to actively advancing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

From reducing its own energy consumption and emissions to strengthening supply chain collaboration, and from upholding the highest global standards to driving green development through technological innovation and responsible brand building, TCL has embraced a “doer” mindset and fully embedded ESG into its corporate strategy.

Sino Jet’s Subsidiary Zhejiang Low-Altitude Mobility Company Completes Inaugural Flight

HONG KONG, March 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Recently, a helicopter took off from ONE53, the landmark at the heart of Hangzhou’s Qianjiang New City, and landed smoothly at the Fuchun Resort approximately 10 minutes later. This marks the successful completion of the inaugural flight by Sino Jet’s Zhejiang Low-Altitude Mobility Company, signifying that the Group’s strategic deployment in the low-altitude economy has progressed from qualification preparation to the stage of substantive operations.

Strategic Positioning: Low-Altitude Economy Moves from Policy Tailwinds to Commercial Implementation

Since the “low-altitude economy” was first written into China’s Government Work Report in 2024 and designated as a strategic emerging industry, supportive policies have been rolled out across multiple regions in China, creating historic growth opportunities for the sector. Against this backdrop, what ultimately determines how far an enterprise can go is not merely the policy tailwinds themselves, but whether it has the capability to translate these opportunities into a sustainable commercial model.

The successful inaugural low-altitude flight by Sino Jet serves as a compelling validation of this proposition. As the largest business aviation company in the Asia-Pacific region, Sino Jet holds the highest global safety standard certification in business aviation—IS-BAO Stage 3. The company operates a fleet of nearly 50 aircraft, with a service network spanning worldwide. The newly launched Zhejiang Low-Altitude Mobility Company represents a strategic extension of Sino Jet’s 15 years of expertise in premium aviation operations, systematically applying its operational experience and safety standards to the low-altitude mobility sector.

In January 2026, the company was officially granted the CCAR Part 135 Air Operator Certificate and Operating License by the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC), becoming the first general aviation enterprise in East China to complete the joint certification process. These qualifications represent not only the regulatory threshold for conducting commercial passenger operations, but also serve as a strong endorsement of Sino Jet’s core capabilities in building competitive barriers within the low-altitude economy sector.

Scenario Definition: Shaping Product Direction Around the Needs of High-End Clientele

As the low-altitude economy moves from concept to practical implementation, the market’s imagination for low-altitude mobility continues to expand. The inaugural “ONE53–Fuchun Resort” route operated by Sino Jet is specifically designed to address the core demand of high-net-worth individuals for efficient travel in real-world use cases.

The journey, which previously required approximately 90 minutes by road, can now be completed in just 10 minutes by air. This route, connecting the urban core of Hangzhou with a high-end resort destination, truly enables efficient and seamless connectivity between the two locations.

This “scenario-driven product definition” approach stems from Sino Jet’s 15 years of experience in business aviation. Time efficiency and service excellence have always been the core priorities of high-end clientele. Extending these principles into the low-altitude mobility sector means establishing a user-value-centered commercialization pathway from the outset—responding to diverse needs across different scenarios, whether for sightseeing experiences or time-sensitive travel.

Industrial Depth: Empowering the Low-Altitude Economy with Business Aviation Expertise

The true challenge of the low-altitude economy lies not merely in getting aircraft off the ground, but in ensuring operations that are safe, efficient, and sustainable. This is precisely where Sino Jet’s core strengths come into play.

Building on 15 years of global operational experience, Sino Jet has established a safety management system aligned with international standards, along with robust asset management capabilities and a digitalized service network. Anchored in this long-term, rigorously validated framework, the company is now providing a replicable management model for the low-altitude mobility sector—from crew qualification standards and operational control procedures to customer service touchpoints and emergency response capabilities across the entire operational chain.

In terms of capacity planning, Sino Jet signed a firm purchase agreement in 2025 with Aerofugia for 50 AE200 electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, representing the largest publicly disclosed firm commercial eVTOL order in China to date. This forward-looking deployment lays a solid capacity foundation for the Group’s future scaled operations in the urban air mobility sector.

Future Vision: Building an Integrated Three-Dimensional Mobility Network

Looking ahead, Sino Jet plans to replicate its proven three-dimensional mobility model across key cities in central and western China, the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area, and the Hainan Free Trade Port. By integrating operational base resources across China, the Group aims to develop diversified low-altitude mobility scenarios tailored to different regional needs.

The strategic objective is clear: to bridge the “last 100 kilometers” of three-dimensional mobility and establish a low-altitude transportation network connecting China’s major urban clusters—making low-altitude travel a new norm for premium mobility.

As the low-altitude economy evolves from a policy buzzword into tangible industrial reality, Sino Jet has chosen a path anchored in safety, guided by client demand, and driven by sound commercial logic. The success of this inaugural flight stands as a testament to that strategic vision.

LONDON, March 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Pepsi Global today announces the launch of Pepsi Football Nation, a global platform designed to bring football culture into everyday life from Rio de Janeiro to London.

Pepsi Global Unveils: Pepsi Football Nation – A New Global Platform Celebrating Football Culture Beyond the 90 Minutes
Pepsi Global Unveils: Pepsi Football Nation – A New Global Platform Celebrating Football Culture Beyond the 90 Minutes

For more than fifty years, Pepsi has been part of football’s defining moments. From world-class tournaments and stadium events like the UEFA Champions League and the Kick Off Show presented by Pepsi to community competitions, the brand has consistently been part of the moments that matter most to fans.

Football unites people around the world, forming communities bound by belief, rivalry, ritual, and shared passion. It is this global community that inspires Pepsi’s latest chapter in football.

Football’s influence extends far beyond ninety minutes on the pitch. It lives in the anticipation before kick-off, the traditions that build belief, the conversations that continue long after the final whistle, and the rituals woven into daily life. With this understanding, Pepsi brings all its football activity together under Pepsi Football Nation, guided by one ambition: Pepsi Celebrates How Football Feels Around the World. The platform reflects that football is shaped as much by culture and connection as by performance.

Pepsi Football Nation celebrates fandom in all its expressions. It honours chants passed down through generations, pre-match rituals, debates that stretch late into the night, rivalries that test friendships, and the shared moments that bring fans back together. These are the experiences that define how the game is truly lived.

At the centre of the platform are the players shaping modern football. Pepsi® has a dynamic global roster that reflects the talent, confidence, and cultural influence that drives football forward. They represent a generation where excellence on the pitch meets presence beyond it.

Together, these initiatives create a connected ecosystem that mirrors how fans experience football every day. The excitement leading into a match, the emotional highs and lows during play, the memorable moments that become stories, and the conversations that keep the spirit of the game alive long after the final whistle. Pepsi Football Nation brings global scale and local passion together in a shared celebration of football culture wherever the game is played and however it is experienced.

Eugene Willemsen, Chief Executive Officer, International Beverages at PepsiCo, says: “For more than five decades, Pepsi has been at the heart of global football culture, bringing the game beyond the pitch and into the worlds of music, entertainment and fandom. As football continues to grow and attract more diverse audiences, our opportunity is not only to show up in the sport, but to elevate the emotional energy that makes it unforgettable. Pepsi Football Nation is our next step: a platform that celebrates the passion, personality and shared experiences that unite fans everywhere. It reflects our commitment to driving cultural impact and creating deeper connections with consumers around the world.”

Pepsi Football Nation brings football to life across multiple expressions. From always-on digital and social content rooted in fan conversation, humour, and cultural relevance to anthem-led storytelling inspired by the chants and songs that are part of football culture, the platform highlights real fan voices through creator and influencer collaborations. It amplifies food and meal moments where Pepsi is a companion to matchday experiences and extends into in-store and on-pack activations that turn everyday Pepsi moments into celebrations of the game.

27-Inch 4K 120Hz Mega Display: Immersive Clarity

For professionals who think and create at scale, the 27-inch display offers an expansive workspace that allows creators to view their entire artwork without constant zooming or panning. With 4K resolution, 120Hz refresh rate and 5ms response time, it delivers exceptional clarity while significantly reducing brush latency and minimizing motion blur during fast strokes.

Its new-gen luminous etched glass, measuring just 0.7 mm thin, increases light transmittance by 30% compared to previous generations, delivering a cleaner, brighter surface that retains a natural paper-like feel while reducing fingerprints and minimizing glare. Meanwhile, TÜV SÜD Low Blue Light certification ensures long-lasting comfort during extended creative sessions.

Studio-Grade Integration: Professional Efficiency

Designed for professional creators and creative studios, the display ships with a comprehensive suite of accessories to enhance user experience and workflow. Its adjustable stand supports single-handed angle adjustment from 16° to 72° for all-day ergonomic comfort. Dual X3 Pro styli—the X3 Pro Slim Stylus and the X3 Pro Smart Chip Stylus—each deliver industry-leading 16,384 pressure levels, enabling natural and precise control across the full range of stroke variation. A wireless keyboard features a 10×4 grid of fully customizable shortcut keys for instant access to essential commands. With broad compatibility across Windows, macOS, Android, ChromeOS, and Linux, the Artist Pro 27 (Gen 2) integrates seamlessly into any creative setup, whether switching between devices or software.
