Hesai Lidar Powers WeRide-Uber Autonomous Fleet in Dubai, Backing City’s Self-Driving Vision

PALO ALTO, Calif., April 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Hesai Technology (Nasdaq: HSAI), the global leader in lidar technology for automotive mobility and robotics application, today announced that its lidar solution have been selected by WeRide (NASDAQ: WRD) to power its autonomous vehicles, which will begin operating on Uber Technologies, Inc.’s (NYSE: UBER) platform in Dubai as part of the city’s 2030 smart mobility initiative. This marks a key moment in the development of autonomous transportation in the Middle East.

Each of the autonomous vehicles will be equipped with four Hesai automotive-grade long-range lidars. As Dubai aims to transform 25% of all journeys in the city into autonomous trips across various transport modes by 2030, the market represents a significant opportunity for the expansion of autonomous vehicle services and plays a key role in shaping the future of mobility.

Renowned for its safe and reliable performance, WeRide made history in July 2023 by securing the UAE’s first national license for self-driving vehicles on public roads—the first national-level driverless license in the Middle East and even globally, covering all types of autonomous vehicles (AVs). WeRide’s latest launch in Dubai follows its successful robotaxi launch in Abu Dhabi in 2021.

Jennifer Li, Chief Financial Officer and Head of International Business at WeRide, stated: “Dubai marks a natural step forward in our commitment to advancing mobility in the Middle East as well as our continued global expansion. We believe our advanced autonomous driving technology and operational experience combined with Uber’s powerful global mobility platform will help us serve millions of consumers in cities around the world.”

“We are thrilled to be a part of the accelerated deployment of L4 autonomous driving technologies worldwide, leveraging our technology to help unlock new possibilities for transportation,” said Hesai CEO and Co-Founder David Li. “Our lidar solution was chosen for its ability to deliver exceptional safety and performance in autonomous driving applications, making it an ideal solution to support operations at scale. Our cutting-edge technologies are a key enabler of innovation in autonomous mobility and are directly contributing to Dubai‘s vision of becoming a global leader in smart transportation.”

Hesai and WeRide have been collaborating since 2019, when Hesai’s lidars were integrated into the first batch of WeRide’s autonomous driving fleets for road testing and operations. In April 2022, Hesai and WeRide entered a new strategic cooperation agreement to promote the application of automotive grade, hybrid solid-state lidar on L4 autonomous vehicles. Together, Hesai and WeRide have achieved significant milestones, including powering China’s first commercialized robotaxi service in Guangzhou.

About Hesai

Hesai Technology (Nasdaq: HSAI) is a global leader in lidar solutions. The company’s lidar products enable a broad spectrum of applications including passenger and commercial vehicles (“ADAS”), as well as autonomous driving vehicles and robotics and other non-automotive applications such as last-mile delivery robots and AGVs (“Robotics”). Hesai seamlessly integrates its in-house manufacturing process with lidar R&D and design, enabling rapid product iteration while ensuring high performance, high quality and affordability. The company’s commercially validated solutions are backed by superior R&D capabilities across optics, mechanics, and electronics.

Strengthening China-U.S. investment ties for shared economic growth

BEIJING, April 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — A report from People’s Daily: U.S. carmaker Tesla’s new Megafactory in Shanghai, a sprawling 200,000-square-meter facility, launched production this February, marking a significant milestone in China-U.S. investment cooperation.

Built in just over eight months, the factory is set to produce 10,000 energy storage battery units annually, adding roughly 40 gigawatt-hours of storage capacity. The project, expected to boost Tesla’s global energy storage output by over 50 percent from last year, highlights what some see as a model of the synergistic “Shanghai speed” meeting “Tesla speed.”

Since the establishment of diplomatic ties in 1979, two-way investment between China and the U.S. has grown exponentially – from near zero to $260 billion, while bilateral trade has ballooned from under $2.5 billion to over $680 billion. More than 70,000 U.S. companies have invested and operated in China, with exports to the Chinese market supporting 930,000 American jobs. At the same time, more than 7,000 Chinese enterprises have invested over $140 billion in the U.S., creating over 1 million American jobs.

A notable testament to this interdependency is China’s Fuyao Group. In 2014, the company inaugurated the world’s largest automotive glass production facility in Ohio. The facility has since become an essential part of the U.S. auto supply chain – a crucial engine for local employment and economic growth.

China offers vast investment and development opportunities for global businesses, including American firms. A report by the American Chamber of Commerce in China (AmCham China) released in January revealed that 48 percent of surveyed U.S. firms ranked China among their top three global investment destinations, and 53 percent planned to increase their investment in the country this year.

Alvin Liu, chair of AmCam China, underscored the enduring importance of China as both a crucial consumer market for American companies and a critical contributor to global innovation and supply chains. This sentiment is echoed by many U.S. businesses, who maintain that disengagement from China is not a viable commercial strategy. They argue that the country offers an unparalleled industrial ecosystem, an improving business environment, stable foreign investment policies, and a highly skilled workforce.

Sean Stein, president of the U.S.-China Business Council, noted that China has grown into the world’s second-largest consumer market, offering significant opportunities for global companies.

With China’s economy continuing to recover and global investors reaffirming their confidence, many view investment in China as an investment in the future. At the same time, Chinese investment in the U.S. has helped drive innovation, job creation and industrial growth.

Enviro-Hub Signs LOI to Divest Waste Recycling and Property Units in Strategic Pivot

  • Potential disposal reflects the Group’s strategic realignment to recycle capital to its other business segments
  • Enterprise value for the Group’s two subsidiaries ranges between S$45 million and S$55 million

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 03 April 2025 – Enviro-Hub Holdings Ltd (SGX: L23) (“Enviro-Hub” or the “Company“, and together with its subsidiaries, the “Group“) today announced that it has entered into a non-binding letter of intent (“LOI“) with a company headquartered in the Asia-Pacific region that deals with non-metallic products (“Potential Purchaser“) to explore the sale of the entire issued and paid-up share capital of HLS Environmental Pte Ltd (“HLSE“) and HLS Property Pte Ltd (“HLSP“), which are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Group (the “Proposed Disposal“).

Enviro-Hub is pursuing this potential disposal transaction as part of its strategic realignment to recycle capital to other business segments within the Group. The planned divestiture of HLSE, which is focused on waste recycling, and HLSP, which is engaged in property investments, reflects the Board’s strategic pivot.

The LOI stipulates that the enterprise value for HLSE and HLSP will range between S$45 million and S$55 million. The Proposed Disposal will proceed on a debt-free, cash-free basis, with the Group committing S$1.5 million in working capital to remain within the subsidiaries.

Mr Toh Jia Sheng Adrian, Executive Director and Chief Investment Officer, commented: “This proposed disposal represents a pivotal step in our strategic roadmap, enabling us to unlock substantial value for our shareholders whilst streamlining our business portfolio. The transaction will considerably strengthen our balance sheet, allow us to allocate resources more efficiently towards our focus areas, and enable us to capitalise on emerging growth opportunities. Ultimately, we believe this decisive shift will generate more sustainable returns and create enduring value for our shareholders in the years ahead.”

The Proposed Disposal is contingent upon several conditions, including satisfactory completion of due diligence by the Potential Purchaser, comprehensive financial disclosure from the Company, execution of definitive agreements with mutually acceptable terms, and all necessary regulatory and third-party approvals. The final consideration may be subject to adjustment based on due diligence findings.

Both parties have agreed to work exclusively with each other from the date of the letter of intent until at least 30 September 2025 (“Exclusivity Period“).

Shareholders are advised that no definitive agreements have been executed at this time, and there can be no assurance that the Potential Disposal will be completed. Should the Potential Disposal proceed, Enviro-Hub will issue a subsequent announcement with further details and will seek shareholders’ approval at an extraordinary general meeting to be convened in due course.

Bybit and Zodia Custody Partner to Enhance Asset Security

Zodia Custody’s Interchange solution will offer Bybit’s institutional clients independent custody and off-venue settlement to support secure institutional trading.

In engaging with digital assets, institutional investors require the assurances of regulatory compliance and robust security measures to protect their capital. Amid heightened industry scrutiny, there is a corresponding demand for credible infrastructure that addresses the potential weaknesses of on-exchange settlement, including centralised control and counterparty risk.

Zodia Custody’s Interchange solution addresses these security concerns by providing independent asset custody via regulatory-grade infrastructure.

This design neutralises counterparty risk and removes the need to pre-fund exchange accounts, enhancing both capital efficiency and operational integrity.

This partnership elevates security and compliance standards across the digital asset trading space, offering institutional clients access to Bybit’s best-in-class trading infrastructure with the safety of Zodia Custody’s off-venue settlement.

Julian Sawyer, CEO of Zodia Custody, commented: “Institutional clients need more than speed – they need to know their assets are held securely, off-exchange, and fully under their control. As leading players in the industry, Zodia Custody and Bybit have a shared responsibility to provide tailor-made solutions to increase security and protect capital for the institutions that use our services. That’s what we’re delivering through this partnership. With Interchange, we’re enabling Bybit’s clients to access trading liquidity without compromising on custody standards, counterparty risk, or capital efficiency. It’s custody and settlement built for institutions, not retrofitted for crypto.”

Shunyet Jan, Head of Institutional and Derivatives at Bybit, added: “At Bybit, our mission is to provide institutional-grade solutions that meet the evolving needs of sophisticated investors. Our partnership with Zodia Custody underscores our dedication to compliance, security, and innovation in the digital asset space.
