Ractigen Therapeutics Announces First Patient Dosed in Phase II Clinical Trial of RAG-17 for SOD1-ALS

NANTONG, China, Jan. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Ractigen Therapeutics is pleased to announce that the first patient has been dosed in the Phase II clinical trial of RAG-17, an innovative siRNA therapy targeting SOD1-mutated amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The initial dosing occurred at Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, under the leadership of Dr. Zhi-Ying Wu, head of the Department of Medical Genetics/Center for Rare Diseases.

This Phase II trial is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple ascending dose (MAD) study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary efficacy of repeated intrathecal injections of RAG-17  in patients with SOD1 mutations. The participating sites include Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University (led by Dr. Yi-Long Wang), The Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine (led by Dr.  Zhi-Ying Wu), West China Hospital of Sichuan University (led by Dr. Hui-Fang Shang), Fujian Medical University Union Hospital (led by Dr. Zhan-Yu Zou) and the First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University (led by Dr. Jing-Sheng Zeng) .

This milestone marks the progression into the Phase II stage of the study, building on the successful completion of the Phase I single ascending dose (SAD) portion. The transition to the Phase II MAD phase was supported by highly encouraging data from the SAD study, which demonstrated an exceptional safety profile and sustained biomarker modulation following a single injection, including significant reductions in CSF SOD1 protein and improvements in plasma neurofilament light chain (NfL) levels. These results validate the capability of our proprietary SCAD™ delivery platform for central nervous system (CNS) in humans.

Dr. Long-Cheng Li, Founder and CEO of Ractigen Therapeutics, emphasized Ractigen’s dedication to advancing treatments for ALS: “The successful dosing of the first patient represents a significant milestone in our mission to develop transformative therapies for ALS. The positive results from the Phase I trial affirm the promise of RAG-17 and provide us with strong confidence in its potential to markedly improve the lives of patients suffering from SOD1-mutated ALS.”

Dr. Zhi-Ying Wu shared optimistic expectations for the Phase II trial: “We are excited to be part of this important study. Based on the improvements we have observed clinically, we look forward to further investigating RAG-17’s potential to enhance the quality of life for ALS patients as we progress.”

About RAG-17
RAG-17 is an investigational siRNA therapeutic candidate designed using Ractigen’s proprietary SCAD™ delivery platform technology to specifically target and silence the superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene mRNA. Mutations in the SOD1 gene cause a toxic gain-of-function and are a known cause of familial ALS. By reducing the production of the toxic mutant SOD1 protein, RAG-17 aims to slow or halt the progression of SOD1-ALS.

RAG-17 has obtained Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and been selected for the CARE Program of the Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE), National Medical Products Administration (NMPA), which facilitates the accelerated development of rare disease therapies.

About ALS
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease affecting nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, leading to muscle weakness, paralysis, and ultimately death, typically within three to five years of diagnosis. SOD1 gene mutations account for approximately 10-20% of familial ALS cases and about 1-2% of sporadic ALS cases. There remains a critical unmet medical need for effective treatments that can slow or stop disease progression.

Leo International Group Relocates Global Headquarters to Singapore Ahead of Its Centennial

Embodying a New Model of Inter-generational Enterprise Anchored in Healthcare, Finance and Education

SINGAPORE, Jan. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As Leo International Group approaches its centennial year in 2026, the Group is not merely commemorating a hundred years of legacy and commercial success. With the formal relocation of its global headquarters to Singapore and the planned inauguration of its Family Office, Leo International Group is using this historic milestone to articulate its next century design; a renewed vision for what a modern enterprise must stand for in a rapidly changing world – one defined not by scale or momentum alone but by longevity, responsibility and contribution across generations.

While the Wang family enterprise traces its origins to 1926, Leo International Group itself was formally established in 2022 under the leadership of Mr Leo Wang, Chairman and Founder. A fourth-generation steward, Mr Wang is leading a comprehensive institutional re-design that translates a century-old heritage of service, philanthropy and multi-sector enterprise into a globally governed, purpose-driven and future-ready group. Rather than treating the centennial as a retrospective celebration, the Group is positioning its centennial year as a strategic inflection point, marking its transition into an inter-generational conglomerate designed to operate across continents, industries and generations.

“We are using this moment to confront pressing questions: What must a modern enterprise stand for if it intends to remain relevant for the next hundred years? In what ways can a company remain meaningful to society and be trusted across generations? A century ago, enterprises were built to survive and expand. Longevity today is determined not by scale alone but by whether an enterprise continues to serve society, earns trust across generations, and possesses governance discipline. Our mission is to design for the next hundred years,” said Mr Leo Wang, Chairman of Leo International Group.

Singapore was chosen as the Group’s global headquarters not merely for its well-established connectivity and robust financial infrastructure but for its role as a jurisdiction synonymous with rule of law, regulatory maturity and long-term capital stewardship.

“The establishment of our Family Office alongside the relocation of our HQ to Singapore reflects the Group’s intention to anchor its next century of growth within a governance-first framework, where capital, strategy and responsibility are aligned over the long term. Singapore is precisely the environment required to design governance that can endure beyond any single generation or individual leader,” Mr Wang added.

From Industrial Foundations to Institutional Design

Leo International Group traces its origins to early industrial and trading activities established by Mr Wang’s family in 1926, laying foundations that evolved through logistics, infrastructure, trade and community development over successive decades. While his family’s business expanded steadily across multiple business lines in the latter half of the twentieth century, its most profound transformation began when Mr Wang returned, following nearly two decades of senior leadership roles in century-old multinational corporations across Europe and the United States including Goodyear, Swarovski, and the Swire Group.

Mr Wang departed The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company in 2020 and then laid the foundation for Leo International Group in 2021. After a year of strategic planning, structural formation and governance set-up, the Group formally commenced operations in 2022.

“Drawing on decades of exposure to century-old European and American corporations that had survived wars, industrial shifts, technological disruption and changing consumer values, my experience taught me this: the DNA of a century-old enterprise must be etched with discipline and altruism because if those remain intact, the organisation can navigate change without losing its direction. Truly long-lived enterprises are not built on a single visionary strategy or charismatic founder. They are built on accumulated institutional capability: governance discipline, cultural coherence, and sustained contribution to society,” said Mr Wang.

“Across industries and geographies, I observed a consistent pattern – enduring enterprises do not treat success as an endpoint. They treat it as something that must be institutionalised, replicable, inheritable, and capable of self-correction. A centennial blueprint, therefore, is not a vision deck. It is an exercise in institutional design. If a company requires one individual’s brilliance to operate, it will not survive generational transition,” he added.

This philosophy now underpins Leo International Group’s redefined structure: a group architecture anchored in three inter-generational core pillars, namely healthcare, financial services and education, supported by an integrated premium lifestyle and services ecosystem designed to serve ultra-high-net-worth (UHNW) families over the long term.

Three Pillars for the Next Century

At the heart of Leo International Group’s centennial strategy lies a calibrated prioritisation of sectors that Mr Wang describes as “inter-generational by nature.”

Healthcare, finance and education were not selected as a diversified portfolio but as a mission-driven hierarchy – industries that address humanity’s most fundamental and enduring needs.

“When you think in quarters, many industries appear attractive. When you think in centuries, only a few sectors truly endure. Healthcare, finance and education are inter-generational industries because they address the three most fundamental human constants: life, order and future. These three sectors share one defining characteristic: they transcend generations and directly impact human dignity and choice. Healthcare protects life itself. Finance governs how value is preserved and transferred. Education shapes how far societies and enterprises can go in the future,” said Mr Wang.

“A century-old enterprise is held together by systems that can self-correct and self-renew, and constantly adapt to evolving conditions in the environment. That is why we anchor the next century on three pillars – healthcare, finance, and education – industries that demand trust, long-term governance, and that carry civilisational impact. Around these pillars, we build a comprehensive and elegant lifestyle and premium services ecosystem designed to serve UHNW clients holistically over time,” he elaborated.

Beyond its three core pillars, Leo International Group operates across a range of lifestyle and service domains including yachts and marinas, hospitality, private aviation, art and fashion, super cars and equestrian offerings.

“Ultra-high-net-worth families are not buying products; they are buying continuity and peace of mind. Lifestyle platforms create trust, proximity and long-term relationships. Without that trust, even the best healthcare, financial or educational systems cannot truly serve a family,” Mr Wang explained.

That is why the comprehensive suite of luxury and premium lifestyle services functions as the connective tissue that naturally integrates health, capital, and next-generation development – medical arrangements for mobility, education embedded within family journeys, financial trust-building within elite networks, and the lifestyle nodes required for cross-border governance.

“Our differentiation is simple: many competitors sell luxury products or experiences; we build synergistic long-term relationships. We do not optimise for one-time extravagance. We optimise for repeatable reliance through quality service systems and governance credibility. That is ultimately why UHNW families entrust you with their legacy planning and continuity,” Mr Wang added.

Healthcare

Healthcare has emerged as the most rigorously governed and publicly accountable pillar associated with Mr Wang’s broader centennial vision. Within his personal business and investment portfolio, Leo International Precision Health AG (LIPH) serves as the flagship healthcare platform, operating independently while reflecting the same governance philosophy that underpins Leo International Group’s long-term strategy.

LIPH has recently successfully completed a listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange Main Board, placing the platform within one of the world’s most stringent life-sciences regulatory environments. The Frankfurt listing reflects a deliberate alignment with European governance standards that prioritise clinical evidence, transparency, long-term safety and accountability.

Following its listing, LIPH announced the completion of the acquisition and integration of six majority-owned portfolio companies on 17 December 2025. These entities span AI diagnostics, biomedical research, immunology, biotechnology and clinical care delivery across Asia-Pacific and the United States. Together, they form an AI-driven precision health platform designed to connect discovery, diagnosis, therapeutics and real-world clinical delivery within a coherent system. Europe is a market to be targeted in the next phase.

“With ageing demographics around the world, chronic disease burdens, and AI-driven clinical transformation, healthcare becomes increasingly central. The Frankfurt mainboard represents one of the world’s most rigorous regulatory cultures for healthcare and life sciences. It requires accountability not only to shareholders, but also to patients, society and future generations,” said Mr Wang, who is also Chairman of Leo International Precision Health AG.

Finance

With Singapore as its new global headquarters, Leo International Group is in the process of establishing a Family Office to serve as an international governance and capital management hub, aligning family capital with long-term healthcare, education and stewardship objectives.

“Finance, as we define it, is not about short-term wins. It is about inter-generational governance – creating durable order across regulation, asset allocation, and risk management so that family capital becomes fuel for education, innovation, philanthropy, and long-term enterprise,” said Mr Wang.

Preparations to set up the Family Office are now underway, with the Group currently finalising the appointment of external advisers. The end-to-end process is expected to take approximately 12 to 18 months.

“We intend to build a cross-market, cross-asset, inter-generational governance framework which is anchored by a family office as an international hub, leveraging mature regulatory standards, transparency, and capital management to connect wealth continuity with education and health needs across geographies and generations,” he added.

The Group’s financial services strategy is therefore structured around long-term asset stewardship, regulatory discipline and inter-generational continuity, rather than short-term optimisation.

Singapore’s highly regarded regulatory environment, transparency standards and strong capital governance frameworks provide a conducive foundation for this approach.

Education

Education represents the longest investment horizon within the Group’s portfolio. The Wang family has already established kindergartens and experimental primary schools, which are in the process of being consolidated into Leo International Group. In parallel, the Group is actively acquiring secondary schools and a university, while also identifying suitable land parcels in Kuala Lumpur and Tokyo for the development of international schools – laying the foundation for a scalable and cross-border education platform. Over time, these education assets are intended to be institutionally structured and prepared for a future listing on the Singapore Exchange.

“Education goes even further. It shapes values, the quality of decisions, leadership, and the foundational capacity of civilisation itself. If an enterprise intends to endure for a century, its ultimate competitive advantage is not capital. It is people – whether the next generation possesses worldview, ethical discipline, and leadership maturity,” Mr Wang added.

Capital Markets as Governance Architecture

A defining feature of Leo International Group’s next-century design is its distributed capital markets strategy, aligning different business pillars with the most optimal global exchanges. Healthcare has already been anchored in Frankfurt under the Chairman’s personal business and investment portfolio.

Education, finance, technology, hospitality and real estate assets are planned for future listings across Singapore, Taipei, Hong Kong, the NYSE and NASDAQ.

“This is not about diversification for its own sake. It is about governance alignment. Each industry must grow under the regulatory culture and investor discipline best suited to its nature. Our multi-exchange architecture is a ‘sector-fit + governance-fit’ design,” Mr Wang explained.

Leo International Group in the next centennial

From its beginnings in Taiwan in 1926, Leo International Group now operates across 10 vital domains, collaborating with more than 100 strategic partners and encompassing over 1,000 world-renowned brands.

It is defined as the most comprehensive and inter-generational solutions platform for UHNW clients – one that integrates 10 value sectors across healthcare, finance, education, and premium lifestyle services into a long-term and trust-based relationship that is cross-border by design.

“Most importantly, I want Leo International Group to be synonymous with a purpose- and mission-led enterprise. When we talk about altruism, it is not a slogan – it is a governance logic: capital should help heal and uplift, not merely expand itself. That is the ‘time significance’ that we would like the centennial to represent,” said Mr Wang.

KGI: 2026 Global Market Outlook

Beyond Balance: The Next Regime


HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 13 January 2026 – Today, KGI has released its 2026 Global Market Outlook, covering markets in the US, Mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Singapore.

(From left) James Chu, Chairman at KGI Securities Investment Advisory; James Wey, Head of International Wealth Management at KGI; Cusson Leung, Chief Investment Officer at KGI

After a turbulent year of trade disruptions and policy uncertainty under President Trump, investors face new questions. China has unveiled its 15th Five-Year Plan, as policymakers aim to support domestic growth amid global challenges. The market outlook for 2026 is shaped by interest rate decisions, economic resilience, and shifting international dynamics.

Under this backdrop, we propose the “LEAD” strategy for 2026:

  1. Liquidity Shift
  2. Earnings Focused
  3. Adding Credit
  4. Diversified Assets

Cusson Leung, Chief Investment Officer at KGI, says: “Looking ahead to 2026, investors can adopt a LEAD strategy: L ​​stands for Liquidity Shift, benefiting from a weakening US dollar and interest rate cuts, with funds expected to flow to non-US dollar and Asian currencies; E stands for Earnings Focused, focusing on earnings growth to support valuations and allocating to US, European, and Japanese stocks; A stands for Adding Credit, locking in the credit of leading companies and increasing holdings of A-rated investment grade bonds; and D stands for Diversified Assets, responding to the upward trend in both stocks and bonds by including alternative assets to optimize asset allocation.”

Macro & US Markets
The US economy will experience a more pronounced downturn in 4Q25, which will extend into 1H26, and this will have a negative impact on consumption, slowing investment activity. Nevertheless, AI-driven productivity gains should provide some support, with US GDP growth in 2026 forecast at 2.2%. The eurozone will see moderate growth, with Germany benefiting significantly from fiscal expansion and economic improvement. Japan’s economy will strengthen on domestic demand, aided by additional fiscal stimulus. China has demonstrated resilience under trade protectionism in 2025. With inflation risks easing and labor market risks rising, the US Fed cut the interest rates in September 2025, with a total reduction of 75 bps in 2025, followed by an additional 50-75 bps in 2026.

Regarding US stocks, AI-driven productivity gains and cost reductions should sustain solid profitability, with S&P 500 earnings projected to grow by 13.55% year-on-year (YoY) in 2026. However, higher risk premiums may cap valuation upside, leading us to project a year-end target of 7,650 points. Market performance will reflect risk-driven declines in 1Q26, stabilize and recover in 2Q26, and rally significantly around the midterm elections in 4Q26. By sector, among AI-related themes we favor technology, semiconductors, utilities (on higher power demand), machinery for advanced manufacturing, and industrial REITs. Non-AI beneficiaries include aerospace and defense (on higher military spending), pharmaceuticals (on tariff benefits), and capital market segments (supported by active investment banking). As for fixed income, US economic weakness and Fed rate cuts will drive Treasury yields lower, with 10-year yields expected to fall to 3.5-3.7% by 2Q26. We recommend allocating to US Treasuries or high-rated investment-grade corporate bonds in 1H26, then rotating into high-yield bonds in 2H26 as policy rates and economic conditions reach a bottom.

James Chu, Chairman at KGI Securities Investment Advisory, says: “AI is triggering a new productivity revolution, supporting economic growth and strengthening corporate earnings. While the US economy is expected to slow, a recession remains unlikely, and the short-term impact of tariff policies should gradually fade by the first quarter of 2026. Although the Fed may shift from cutting rates at every meeting to cutting at alternating meetings, the overall environment remains a rate-cutting cycle. In a non-recession backdrop, lower interest rates should continue to support equity market performance.”

Mainland China and Hong Kong Markets
In terms of the macroeconomy, with the conclusion of trade agreements among many countries, risks have subsided. However, due to external drag, China’s GDP growth is expected to slow slightly to 4.6% in 2026. In 2026, investors should focus on four key areas for Hong Kong and mainland China markets: (1) In the consumption sector, domestic demand continued to be the core growth driver, contributing more than half of GDP. As the “trade-in” effect diminishes, the central government is expected to implement the “15th Five-Year Plan” and economic conference plans, launching a new round of subsidies covering culture, entertainment, and sports to continuously boost consumer spending. (2) In the financial market, risk appetite has increased. Given the narrowing spread between bond yields and fixed deposit rates, large amounts of savings are flowing into the capital market seeking returns. The fundamentals of the banking and insurance industries have bottomed out, and the credit structure is accelerating its shift from real estate to supporting the real economy. (3) Regarding the issue of “anti-involution,” the PPI remains weak, and capacity reduction has become a focus. Compared to 2015, this round involves more downstream private enterprises and needs to consider employment, presenting greater challenges. While industry consolidation is expected to be lengthy, the impact is controllable and beneficial for long-term healthy development. (4) Regarding new quality productive forces, this will replace real estate and infrastructure as the main investment focus. Digital infrastructure supports AI and embodied intelligence, and humanoid robots are expected to see commercialization in 2026, “iPhone moment.” Leading companies with core technological autonomy in innovative drugs will enjoy higher valuation premiums.

Overall, we are optimistic on Hang Seng Index. We expect the Federal Reserve’s interest rate cuts to drive fund inflows to the Hong Kong and mainland stock markets. Based on an upward revision of the forward PE ratio to 13.5x and 8% earnings growth, we set a target of 30,000 points for the Hang Seng Index by the end of 2026, representing a potential upside of approximately 14%. As confidence recovers, the investment style is expected to shift from defensive to growth stocks. Recommended 12 stocks: XPeng Motors (9868), UBTECH (9880), Tencent Holdings (700), Alibaba (9988), China Hongqiao (1378), AIA Group (1299), Ping An Insurance (2318), China Merchants Bank (3968), Akeso Biopharma (9926), Pop Mart (9992), Tencent Music (1698), and Sino Land (83).

Cusson Leung, Chief Investment Officer at KGI, says: “2026 marks a crucial turning point for the Chinese economy. While the market anticipates GDP growth to slow to 4.6%, “new quality productive forces,” resembling humanoid robots, is taking over as a new growth engine. The most critical signal in the market is the “awakening” of idle cash—massive savings are flowing from low-interest fixed deposits to the capital market seeking returns. With risk appetite returning and policy support intensifying, now is the time to shift investment strategies from “defensive” to “growth.” Driven by both valuation repair and earnings growth, we are optimistic that the Hang Seng Index will reach 30,000 points, and the allocation value of Hong Kong and mainland China stocks has reappeared.”

Taiwan Market
Compared to the dot-com era bull run, which lasted almost five years, the current AI frenzy has been around for about three years, suggesting that the uptrend is still in its middle phase and could extend through 2026.

AI plays are trading at high PEs, such valuations are backed by strong fundamentals. In fact, the PEG ratio of Taiwan’s AI supply chain has yet to surpass 1x. We estimate that aggregate earnings of AI plays will grow by 21% YoY in 2026, following impressive upticks of 35% in 2024 and 43% in 2025. AI stocks now account for more than 60% of TAIEX earnings, and with the ongoing AI arms race, overall TAIEX earnings growth is projected to accelerate from 14% in 2025F to 20% in 2026.

Although the AI frenzy should keep the bull market intact, volatility will rise in tandem due to: (1) substantial cumulative gains, and the fact that valuations are approaching historic highs; (2) policy and political uncertainty surrounding the US midterm elections; and (3) potential changes in the US Fed’s rate-cut pace. We expect the TAIEX to repeat a “smile-curve” pattern, featuring continued strength in 1Q26, followed by healthy corrections in 2Q-3Q26 before closing the year with a renewed upswing.

We think investors need to pay attention to two major themes. The first is a broad-based product spec upgrade trend across the AI supply chain, which will drive the industry into a new growth phase, with beneficiaries including foundries, GPU and ASIC designers, advanced packaging (such as CoWoS), and ODMs, as well as testing interfaces, memory, thermal solutions, CCL, ABF substrates, PCBs, switches, and power component suppliers amid strong AI computing demand and ongoing GPU platform upgrades. The second is diversification and defensive asset allocation. Innovations in consumer electronics, such as foldable iPhones and smart wearables, will provide growth opportunities, while companies with resilient domestic demand and stable high dividend yields offer a balanced strategy combining growth and income. Overall, investors should strike a balance between growth and resilience against volatility in their portfolios, in the face of market fluctuations.

James Chu, Chairman at KGI Securities Investment Advisory, says: “The solid earnings growth driven by AI and still reasonable valuations form a strong foundation for the ongoing bull market in Taiwanese equities. With AI adoption accelerating across enterprises and consumers, demand for computing power is rising rapidly. Yet supply remains constrained by chip and power bottlenecks, meaning hardware suppliers are likely to face continued shortages through 2026. Taiwan’s AI supply chain is set to remain a key beneficiary, particularly those tied to next-generation specification upgrades.”

Singapore Market
In 9M25, the overall performance of Singapore’s economy was better than expected as the global trade tensions eased after the US pivoted on its reciprocal tariffs and reached deals with its major trading partners. The manufacturing, wholesale trade and finance & insurance sectors remained the growth pillars of the Singapore economy, and each sector delivered decent growth. In particular, manufacturing’s growth has been robust, driven by the electronics, transport engineering and biomedical manufacturing clusters. The full year outlook is upbeat, as the growth momentum shall continue till the end of the year.

Looking ahead, the global economic outlook for 2026 suggests slower GDP growth for most of Singapore’s key trading partners, including China and the Eurozone, largely due to the impact of US tariffs, which will temper demand for Southeast Asian exports, though US growth is expected to remain resilient from AI investment. Consequently, Singapore’s outward-oriented sectors, particularly manufacturing and trade-related services, are projected to expand at a slower pace than in 2025, although the electronics and related sectors will benefit from AI demand, while some precision engineering and biomedical output may moderate domestically, the construction sector is set to grow, but consumer-facing sectors are likely to remain subdued. However, the relatively low interest rates and continuous government support shall buffer the impact of the slowdown, and the capital market will still benefit from the upward re-rating catalysts.

Chen Guangzhi, Head of Research at KGI Singapore, says: “Thanks to trade de-escalation and the AI wave, Singapore experienced significant economic expansion in 2025. Proactive government initiatives turbo-charged the equity bull run, and this strong momentum is expected to deliver an optimistic economic outlook for 2026.”

  • Cinch Pouch – Year of the Horse Edition
  • New Year Horse Charm
  • New Year Owl Charm

Bellroy is also offering customers the New Year Horse Charm and New Year Owl Charm as gifts with the purchase of the Cinch Backpack – Year of the Horse Edition or Mini Messenger – Year of the Horse Edition (while stocks last). The horse charm, molded from clay and developed through 3D printing, features two snuggling horses sitting on a diamond-style knot that loosely resembles a traditional Chinese knot. Bellroy Designer Rowan Dinning says, “For Year of the Horse, we didn’t want to signal a hustle culture, like the cliché, prancing pony. We focused more on being in connection with family and that sense of community when putting together the capsule.”

This capsule is a modern take on a year that is often tied to speed, ambition and momentum. Bellroy reframes the story: rest and prepare, then move with purpose. “The idea was inspired by the phonetic similarity between ‘Cinch’ and the Chinese word ‘松弛’ (sōngchí), which means relaxed, chilled or loosened. The design language of the Cinch family – playful structure, soft and lightweight materials – further reinforces this ‘chilled’ feeling,” says Bellroy BD Project Manager Fiona Fang.

Feature Story: The 150-Year Journey to Robotin

Revolution Story: 150-Year Carpet Washing Revolution | From Hands & Knees to Robotin R2

Why does the R2 Pro matter? Because for 150 years, humanity has fought a silent war against the ground we walk on. Robotin is the peace treaty.

For one hundred and fifty years, humanity has fought a silent war against the ground we walk on. It begins in 1875. Back then, a clean rug wasn’t a luxury…it was a physical sacrifice. We had no electricity. We had no mercy. To wash a floor meant mixing ox gall…bile from a cow’s liver…with ammonia. We scrubbed on our hands and knees until our skin blistered, then dragged hundreds of pounds of wet wool into the sunlight, praying for the wind to dry it before the mold set in.

But the human spirit is restless. Just one year later, in 1876, Melville Bissell gave us the first mechanical sweeper to fight the surface dust. Yet, brushes weren’t enough. We demanded power. So in 1901, Hubert Cecil Booth reversed the wind, parking massive, horse-drawn vacuums called “Puffing Billy” on the streets of London to suck the dirt from our windows.

The technology shrank rapidly. By 1908, William Hoover had put the electric vacuum into our closets. We had conquered the dust, but the deep filth remained untouchable. Throughout the 1930s, if you wanted to wash, you had to surrender your rugs to the “Rug Plant.” Huge factories where carpets were submerged in soap tanks and crushed through steel wringers. The home was for living; the washing was for the industry.

But the mid-century trapped us. Wall-to-wall carpeting took over the world. You couldn’t send your floor away anymore. So, in 1964, Hot Water Extraction was born. By 1974, pros were mounting V8 engines inside vans—the “Truck-Mount”—blasting hot water into our living rooms to get the deep clean we craved.

But we wanted independence. In 1978, Roger Kent handed the labor back to us with the Rug Doctor, allowing us to rent deep cleaning power on demand. Then, by 1993, Bissell delivered a breakthrough: miniaturizing the technology into handheld spot cleaners. It gave us the instant power to tackle accidents. But for all its innovation, the labor remained ours… forcing us back onto our hands and knees to fight stains one by one.

Then, the digital dawn. 2002 brought the first robotic vacuum. It promised us freedom. But for the next twenty years, a painful gap remained. Robots could vacuum. They could mop hard floors. But the moment they touched carpet? They surrendered. They lifted their pads and ran away. Even in 2020, the smartest AI in the world refused to wash the rug.

That changed in 2022. Jun Long, a robotics expert, saw his wife struggle. She loved their carpets, but with allergies, kids, and a stray cat, keeping them clean was a daily battle. Jun set a vision: “No chores, no wars.” He gathered a team of robotic experts to build the solution, naming the company after his promise: Robot In… Chores Out. Robotin was born.

2025. The prototype is perfected. And in 2026, the world changes. Welcome to the Robotin Era. This is the Robotin R2. The world’s first modular robot. Snap in the Vacuum & Mop module for your tile. But here is the revolution… Snap in the Carpet Wash & Dry Module.

It doesn’t just vacuum. It injects hot water. It scrubs the fibers. It extracts the filth. And crucially… it dries. Real hot air drying. No more wet socks. No more rental machines. No more hands and knees.

From the ox gall and scrub brushes of 1875… to the modular autonomy of 2026. The history of cleaning has led to this moment. Your carpet is finally, truly, washed.

The new era begins now. Robotin.
