SHANGHAI, Nov. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Hasten Biopharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (“Hasten”) announced that while completing 70 Marketing Authorization Transfers (MAT) for its Asia-Pacific product portfolio, the company has established an end-to-end commercial network covering Southeast Asia, Australia, Korea, Hong Kong SAR and Taiwan, Province of China. This milestone marks Hasten successfully building a viable pan-Asia-Pacific commercial platform and setting a new benchmark for end-to-end global expansion of innovative biopharmaceuticals, which will benefit millions of chronic disease patients across the region.

From MAT to GTM: A Full-Cycle Showcase of Asia-Pacific Commercialization

Hasten’s Asia-Pacific strategy has been fully implemented since it acquired the commercial rights to a portfolio of branded products across eight Asia-Pacific countries and regions in June, 2024. While starting its commercialization quickly, the Asia-Pacific team leveraged expertise in overseas regulatory filing, market expansion across the Asia-Pacific region and cGMP compliance audits and quickly built a Go-to-Market (GTM) system spanning South Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong SAR and Taiwan, Province of China, etc. The entire process—from MAT transfers to revenue-generating commercialization—was completed within just 10 months.

Liu Wenjun, CEO of Hasten, stated: “Global expansion is a complex systematic challenge for start-up companies like Hasten, and successfully establishing a viable commercialization pathway from 0 to 1 is quite achieving. On this demanding journey, Hasten keeps collaborating with partners to strategize holistically and deliver rapid results together. We are committed to evolving our commercial system from V1.0 (focused on breakthrough initiatives) to V2.0 (upgrading an AP healthcare ecosystem), so as to empowering Chinese partners with replicable and operational globalization solutions as well as benefiting patients worldwide.”

Peggy Fung, EVP and Asia-Pacific Commercial Head of Hasten, added: “Southeast Asia represent particularly promising regions driven by population growth, a rising middle class and an evolving disease burden, of all which create demand for innovative branded treatments. By digging in-depth local insights, Hasten has marked a viable commercialization footprint and is about to embrace holistic eruptions across hospitals, clinics and retail markets. Strong partnerships are the key to encountering uncertainties. We invite collaborators to join our platform in co-creating a pan-Asia-Pacific healthcare ecosystem.”

Credibility Remains Core for Award-Winning Mitrade CFD Broker as Scam Vigilance Intensifies Across Asia Markets

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Nov. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — As scam activity intensifies across Asia’s retail trading sector, CFD broker Mitrade is reaffirming its focus on governance, trader protection, and regulatory transparency. The platform was recently recognised with four regional awards: Most Trusted Broker Asia 2025, Fastest Withdrawal Broker Asia 2025, Most Innovative Platform – Asia 2025, and Best Mobile CFD Trading Experience – APAC 2025.

This comes amid growing concern over online financial fraud. Indonesia’s Anti-Scam Centre reported 74,000 scam cases by March 2025, with losses surpassing IDR 1.4 trillion. AP reports Thailand saw 24,500 mobile scams in June. INTERPOL and UNODC also warn of syndicates expanding across the region, targeting vulnerable digital investors.

As scam operators mimic regulated platforms, brokers face heightened scrutiny from users seeking reassurance in a high-risk environment.

Asia’s rapidly growing retail trading market is particularly exposed to fraud, especially as new traders enter the market,” said Kevin Lai, Vice President of Mitrade Group. “We address this through multi-layered protections—segregated client funds, third-party audits, million-dollar insolvency insurance, all regulated under five licenses.”

He added: “Although we operate within regulated frameworks, we understand that trust must be earned continuously—especially in regions impacted by fraud. That’s why we also invest in fraud prevention and user education, so traders can better recognise risks. Securing awards affirms this trust, but what matters is day-to-day vigilance and accountability.”

Mobile trading is the dominant channel for retail investors in Asia, where smartphone usage drives participation. Mitrade’s app is built with trader centricity and security—earning it the Best Mobile CFD Trading Experience – APAC 2025 award from Global Brands Magazine.

In a region where financial access is outpacing enforcement, Mitrade champions traders’ interests and continuously innovates to offer a secure, world-class trading platform.

Great Place To Work® Urges Singapore Companies to Bridge the Confidence Gap in Leadership and Build Psychologically Safe Workplaces

Record of 55 companies honoured as Best Workplaces in Singapore 2025

SINGAPORE, Nov. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Great Place To Work® Singapore held its annual awards gala on 30 October 2025, recognising 55 organisations across Micro, Small, Medium and Large categories, marking a record number of awardees to date for Best Workplaces in Singapore. The awards ceremony, held at JW Marriott Singapore South Beach, was attended by about 330 leaders, executives, and employees from Great Place To Work Certified companies.

The Best Workplaces in Singapore™ 2025, themed “Change Happens Here”, celebrated high-trust organisations built on transparency and integrity in leadership. For the second year, Great Place To Work also honoured its Legends, organisations that have consistently made the Best Workplaces™ list for five or more consecutive years.

Bridging the Trust Divide in Singapore Workplaces

The data from the Great Place To Work’s Insights Report also shows that Singapore workplaces have a confidence gap, with only one in five employees in typical workplaces saying they trust their leaders. A confidence gap refers to the difference in the level of trust employees have in their management. In contrast, employees in Singapore’s Best Workplaces report consistently high levels of trust in their leadership.

In turn this trust dividend helps with business outcomes.
Best Workplaces outperform by more than 30% across key business outcomes: productivity recruitment, retention, customer service and agility.

The report reflects the voices of about 120, 000 employees across Singapore, assessed using the Trust Index™, which measures five key dimensions: respect, credibility, fairness, pride, and camaraderie.

Psychological Safety a Cornerstone of Great Workplaces

A joint survey by mental health organisation Calm Collective Asia and Southeast Asia consumer research firm Milieu Insight found that Singapore workers feel the least psychologically safe in Southeast Asia. Six in 10 employees reported they do not feel psychologically safe.

However, Best Workplaces and Certified Companies continue to outperform in this area, scoring 88% and 78% respectively.

The strongest drivers of psychological safety are leadership behaviours that acknowledge mistakes, communicate transparently, and create space for questions.

Emphasising the importance of psychological safety in shaping great workplaces, the gala dinner featured a panel discussion with Ms Low Peck Kem, President, SHRI; Mr Kevyn Yong, CEO, HCLI; and Aslam Sardar, CEO, IHRP.  The session was moderated by Ms Evelyn Kwek, Managing Director of Great Place To Work ASEAN & ANZ. The panel explored how psychological safety empowers innovation, resilience, and accountability at all levels.

The Insights Report also revealed a strong connection between opportunity for innovation and employee engagement. Employees who feel they have opportunities to innovate are four times more likely to find their work meaningful and 3.5 times more likely to remain with their organisation.

Ms Kwek said, “Psychological safety is essential for trust, growth, and performance. Our Best Workplaces show that when leaders prioritise people, employees feel safe to speak, contribute, and innovate. Building such workplaces isn’t optional, it is a non-negotiable. Innovation also drives engagement and retention. The data shows that employees empowered to explore ideas are more likely to find their work meaningful and stay. As Singapore continues to navigate a rapidly evolving work landscape, fostering environments where people feel safe and valued isn’t just good for employees. It is crucial for companies to stay competitive and future-ready.”

Micron Technology was awarded #1 Best Workplace for the first time after placing top three since 2022. “Being named one of the Best Workplaces is a powerful affirmation of Micron’s people-first culture. It reflects our unwavering commitment to creating an environment where every team member feels supported, empowered, and inspired to thrive. This recognition is not just a badge of honour, it’s a celebration of the values we live every day, from inclusion and innovation to wellbeing and community impact,” said Mr Joshua Lee, Corporate Vice President and Singapore Country Manager, Micron Technology.

DHL has been on the Best Workplaces list for nine years consecutively. Ms Eunis Hew, Managing Director of DHL Supply Chain Singapore said: “Being recognised as one of the Best Workplaces is a proud moment for all of us at DHL. It reflects the passion and commitment of our people who bring our culture to life every day. This recognition affirms our belief that when we put people first, we build not just a stronger workplace, but also a stronger business for the future.”

X-PHY Inc partners Athena Dynamics to expand access to hardware-based cybersecurity solutions in Asia

SINGAPORE, Nov. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Cybersecurity firm X-PHY Inc has appointed Athena Dynamics Pte Ltd as its strategic market access partner for the Asia-Pacific region, expanding its presence in Singapore and across Asia.

Partnership enhances delivery of X-PHY’s patented hardware-embedded security solutions to public and critical infrastructure sectors
Partnership enhances delivery of X-PHY’s patented hardware-embedded security solutions to public and critical infrastructure sectors

The partnership aims to deliver X-PHY’s hardware-embedded security solutions to public and critical infrastructure sectors. Recent advisories from the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA) highlight that sophisticated ransomware can bypass traditional software defences. X-PHY’s Cybersecure Solid State Drive (SSD) provides AI-driven, hardware-level protection that detects tampering and abnormal activity autonomously, safeguarding sensitive data even if software defences fail.

X-PHY’s portfolio also includes the X-PHY Deepfake Detector, designed in line with the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) Technology Risk Management (TRM) Guidelines. The endpoint-based tool allows financial institutions to detect deepfakes on corporate devices without relying on the cloud, keeping sensitive data secure.

Camellia Chan, CEO of X-PHY Inc, said, “Our current threat landscape demands more than software-based defenses. Hardware must be the first line of defense, embedding intelligence at the core of every device. This is what X-PHY delivers—proactive, autonomous protection that stops attacks before they escalate. Our partnership with Athena Dynamics extends this critical layer of security to organisations across Singapore and Asia. Together, advocating for a holistic security stack that encompasses both hardware and software layers.”

Athena Dynamics CEO Ken Soh added, “The partnership is timely and strategic, especially with the recent MAS advisory in September 2025 highlighting the rising threat of deepfake-related scams. X-PHY’s hardware-based security proposition uniquely fills a critical gap left by software-only cybersecurity platforms, which can be disabled or manipulated by bad actors before they are able to actively implement their protective measures.”

The collaboration will leverage Athena Dynamics’ established presence in Singapore and regional network to boost cyber resilience for government, defence, and enterprise clients. Initiatives will include joint customer briefings, proof-of-concept deployments, and co-developed solution bundles across the Asia-Pacific.
