SANYA, China, Jan. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Set along the pristine coastline of Hainan, The Sanya EDITION draws inspiration from the vast ocean that surrounds it, striking a refined balance between natural serenity and contemporary energy. From the moment of arrival, the experience is designed to impress: guests pass through lush tropical gardens before arriving at a semi-open lobby, where layered teak wood pavillions, reflective water features and bamboo groves frame uninterrupted views of the South China Sea. A gentle sea breeze carries the signature scent of Le Labo black tea, while impeccably styled hosts move with an effortless rhythm, lending the space an atmosphere reminiscent of a modern runway set within a secluded island retreat.

Driven by a commitment to continual innovation, The Sanya EDITION continues to expand the boundaries of contemporary resort living, contributing to the evolution of Hainan’s and China’s wider vacation market. As one of the largest EDITION hotels worldwide, the property has, since 2019, pioneered large-scale festive seasons and New Year celebrations, later evolving into a comprehensive Chinese New Year program. From the opening of Hainan’s first natural grass tennis court to the debut of the island’s first acrylic tennis court certified with a two-star rating by the International Tennis Federation (ITF); from the early introduction of a destination-style Beach Club to the presentation of Sunset Moment fire dance performances—these first-of-their-kind initiatives continue to set benchmarks for modern luxury resort experiences. Many of these “firsts” found their origin at The Sanya EDITION.

Within these pioneering efforts, sports facilities have become an integral part of the resort’s lifestyle offering. Specially selected for Sanya’s tropical coastal climate, the natural grass tennis courts feature Platinum TE Paspalum grass, combining superior heat tolerance, ecological adaptability, and a fine, uniform texture to deliver a tournament-grade playing experience with elevated sensory refinement. The ITF two-star certified acrylic courts combine professional performance with a contemporary aesthetic, featuring a distinctive palette of pink and sky blue. Pink reflects vitality and innovation, while sky blue echoes the surrounding coastal landscape, allowing sport, design and resort living to seamlessly converge into The Sanya EDITION’s signature Sportcation experience. In addition to tennis, the resort also offers pickleball and padel courts, further enriching its multi-dimensional sports landscape. All courts are equipped with energy-efficient, high-brightness lighting systems, ensuring consistent playing conditions from day to night.

As the Year of the Horse Chinese New Year approaches in 2026, The Sanya EDITION presents a festive season that blends tradition and art, offering a contemporary interpretation of island celebrations. As night falls, a water projection show will unfold above the resort’s unique Private Ocean, where light and water intertwine to create a fully immersive visual experience. On Chinese New Year’s Eve, a luminous Lion Dance performance will take center stage, with glowing silhouettes moving to powerful drumbeats, symbolizing strength and renewal. On the first day of the Chinese New Year, traditional dragon and lion dances will bring vibrant energy to the resort, reimagined within a relaxed island setting.

Festivities continue with the dramatic molten iron fireworks show, as thousands of sparks cascade through the sky like falling stars, illuminating the water below. Drone show will animate the night sky with scenes of New Year blessings, while the “Realm of Light and Silhouettes” aerial performance features phoenix and winged horse soaring overhead—symbols of vitality, prosperity and good fortune for the Year of the Horse. Floating lanterns will drift gently across the water, adding a quiet moment to the celebrations.

Beyond visual spectacle, gastronomy forms a central part of the festive experience. The Sanya EDITION is home to five distinctive restaurants and two bars, led by a creative culinary team offering diverse, all-day dining concepts. The Jade Egret presents modern European cuisine paired with a curated selection of wines and classic cocktails, while Beach Barbacoa blends relaxed seaside dining with bold Indonesian flavors inspired by Jimbaran Bay. Market at EDITION takes inspiration from traditional Chinese warehouses, offering a dynamic mix of local and international cuisines across live cooking stations, including raw bar, bakery, open-fire grill and juice bar. The Sky Bar, perched at the top of the hotel, overlooks the South China Sea, serving as a tranquil poolside retreat by day and a vibrant social lounge by night. On Chinese New Year’s Eve, Xian Hai by the Sea will present a special reunion dinner, featuring a bespoke festive menu crafted from seasonal ingredients.

During the Chinese New Year period, Market at EDITION will offer a themed seafood hotpot dinner buffet from 13 to 23 February 2026, served daily from 5:30 pm to 9:00 pm. The Jade Egret will introduce a series of limited-time menus, including a Valentine’s Day Special Menu on 14 February, a Chinese New Year Special Menu from 16 to 17 February, and a guest chef collaboration from 18 to 19 February with Edorta Lamo, Michelin One Star and Michelin Green Star Chef of Arrea! Restaurant in Spain, presenting an authentic expression of Basque mountain terroir. The Sky Bar will offer both Valentine’s Day and Chinese New Year themed afternoon teas, while Beach Barbacoa at EDITION will feature special menus for both festive occasions.

From illuminated night skies to shimmering waters, from cultural performances to refined culinary experiences, The Sanya EDITION redefines the Chinese New Year through the lens of contemporary resort living—where celebration meets restraint, and tradition unfolds through modern imagination.

DAVOS, Switzerland, Jan. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — At the 2026 World Economic Forum Annual Meeting in Davos, Dr. Giovanni Caforio, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Novartis, announced a major new partnership: the Novartis Foundation, the Ministry of Health of Brunei Darussalam, and EVYD Technology will jointly implement an AI- and data-enabled national cardiovascular disease prevention initiative under the global program: CARDIO4Cities.

Built on Brunei’s national health platform, the program aims to harness population-scale data and artificial intelligence to enable early identification of high-risk individuals and deliver targeted interventions, ultimately reducing cardiovascular disease burden and strengthening national heart health outcomes.

This landmark collaboration, recognized for both its public health impact and innovation potential, has been prominently featured by the World Economic Forum.

Advancing Public Health Through AI and Cross-Sector Collaboration

The initiative was highlighted during the Davos session “Innovating for Social Impact at Scale Through Partnerships and Artificial Intelligence,” co-hosted by the Novartis Foundation, Novo Nordisk and the World Heart Federation.

During the discussion, Mrs. Gong Yingying, Founder and Chairlady of Yidu Tech, joined Mr. Marnix van Ginneken, Chairman of the Philips Foundation, in a dialogue on digital health innovation and the future of resilient public health systems. The conversation was moderated by Dr. Ann Aerts, Head of the Novartis Foundation.

Mrs. Gong noted that advancing high-quality public health is fundamentally a systems-level endeavor — one that depends on whether technological innovation and cross-sector collaboration can be translated into scalable, self-reinforcing capabilities over time. She emphasized that the launch of CARDIO4Cities in Brunei represents a strategically significant national-level deployment.

Its ambition extends well beyond the implementation of a single program. Rather, it is designed to drive a structural transformation of the public health system: shifting from reactive response to proactive prediction, from fragmented services to integrated governance, and from experience-based approaches to precision management grounded in real-world data.

Addressing a Global Non-Communicable Disease Challenge

Cardiovascular disease and other non-communicable diseases remain the leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for more than 70% of global mortality. In Brunei, cardiovascular disease is also the primary cause of death, placing sustained pressure on the country’s healthcare system.

Globally, many countries continue to face common structural barriers — including fragmented data infrastructure, limited monitoring capacity, and insufficient population-level risk stratification — making precise prevention difficult to implement at scale.

Through this partnership, Brunei will leverage to establish AI-driven cardiovascular risk tiering across the population and deliver differentiated intervention pathways, shifting prevention efforts upstream.

“A truly resilient system,” said Mrs. Gong, “must act before risks fully emerge. This is the national value of data- and intelligence-driven health governance.”

EVYD’s Platform Foundation and Value for Life Sciences

The AI capabilities underpinning Brunei’s CARDIO4Cities program are rooted in EVYD’s broader technology foundation — designed to deliver population-scale intelligence while also enabling end-to-end value creation for pharmaceutical and life sciences partners globally.

Powered by EVYD’s proprietary AI engine and extensive real-world evidence infrastructure, the platform supports drug developers across the R&D lifecycle, including:

• AI-enabled precision patient identification and recruitment
• intelligent clinical trial data quality monitoring
• accelerated execution with improved cost efficiency
• generation of high-quality real-world evidence to support regulatory submissions and payer access

BruHealth: From Pandemic Response to a National Digital Health Backbone

Mrs. Gong also highlighted the evolution of BruHealth, Brunei’s national digital health platform.

Initially established to support infectious disease tracking and resource coordination during the pandemic, BruHealth has since grown into a comprehensive national infrastructure integrating:

• government oversight and policy execution
• physician-facing clinical workstations
• citizen-centered digital health services

Today, residents can access longitudinal health records, receive AI-generated personalized health guidance, schedule care appointments, and monitor key wellness indicators directly through the platform.

BruHealth now covers more than 85% of Brunei’s population, serving as the digital backbone of the country’s universal health ecosystem. EVYD will provide core data integration, analytics, and implementation support to ensure CARDIO4Cities is operationalized at national scale.

A Globally Scalable Model for Cardiometabolic Risk Reduction

Brunei becomes the first country to expand CARDIO4Cities at national scale across four major cardiovascular risk factors: hypertension, diabetes, obesity and hyperlipidemia.

Globally, CARDIO4Cities — initiated by the Novartis Foundation — has been deployed across more than 40 cities including São Paulo, Dakar and Ulaanbaatar. Results have shown that within 15–21 months, blood pressure control rates can improve by 3–6x, with stroke incidence reduced by up to 13% and heart attack rates reduced by up to 12%.

Setting a New Benchmark for National AI-Enabled Disease Prevention

This trilateral collaboration delivers a next-generation solution for cardiovascular disease prevention in Brunei, while also offering a scalable reference model for non-communicable disease control worldwide.

As the initiative advances, it is expected to further strengthen Brunei’s public health capacity, reduce long-term disease burden, and contribute new momentum to the global transformation toward intelligent, prevention-oriented health systems.

TAIPEI, Jan. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Star Trade, an international energy services provider under the HDRE Group, today announced an official partnership with Japan’s leading electricity retailer, Chubu Electric Power Miraiz (Chubu Miraiz), to initiate an energy storage collaboration that includes examining an expansion of capacity up to 300 MW, aimed at enhancing peak-hour electricity price stability. The project introduces an insurance-based hedging solution backed by large-scale battery storage, marking Star Trade’s first overseas deployment of this product and its entry into the core of Japan’s energy market.

Chubu Miraiz, Retail Electricity and Gas Supply Company of Chubu Electric Power Group (9502.JP), ranks among Japan’s top three electricity retailers and supplies power to customers across mainly central Japan. The region is home to Japan’s automotive and heavy manufacturing base, with a dense concentration of production and export-oriented enterprises. As a result, it is one of the country’s most electricity-intensive and price-sensitive areas.

Chubu Miraiz procures a portion of its electricity from the JEPX spot market. As price volatility is particularly pronounced during evening peak periods, the need for effective price hedging solutions has been increasing. To address this challenge, Star Trade will provide a storage-backed peak price hedging solution, and is exploring an expansion of storage capacity up to 300 MW as part of this initiative.

The solution integrates real-time charge/discharge control with AI-powered price forecasting, enabling targeted hedging operations during periods of anticipated price spikes. By doing so, it allows Chubu Miraiz to mitigate spot market procurement, among other exposures, while allowing Star Trade to partially stabilize returns from its storage assets through structured agreements.

Star Trade is responsible for leading the transaction structure design and strategy execution, combining HDRE Group’s energy storage infrastructure with its proprietary AI pricing models. The offering builds on a proven framework previously implemented by Star Trade in the Australian market and is now being successfully adapted for Japan.

The collaboration represents a key milestone for Star Trade, marking the company’s first commercial deployment of an insurance-based energy solution in Japan and its first adoption by a corporate customer. Building on experience from international markets, the project highlights Star Trade’s ability to integrate asset operations, pricing intelligence, and trading execution into a unified service framework.

Looking ahead, Star Trade plans to expand its participation in Japan’s energy markets and strengthen its presence across the broader Asia-Pacific region. Through its proprietary Star Trade platform, the company aims to deliver scalable, replicable storage solutions that support utilities and enterprises in navigating energy price volatility and ensuring long-term supply stability.
