The showcase demonstrated not only the company’s R&D capabilities but also its long-term commitment to environmental responsibility in the global HVAC industry.


Pioneering R290 Solutions for the Planet

Taking center stage were Midea’s R290 solutions, which the company has championed for over 15 years. Since launching the world’s first UN-backed R290 demonstration production line in 2010, Midea has led the global adoption of this eco-friendly refrigerant. Today, it operates 12 advanced R290 production lines with an annual capacity of 6.4 million units, backed by extensive real-world applications that deliver measurable reductions in carbon emissions worldwide.

The company has played an active role in shaping international refrigerant standards, accelerating the use of R290 natural refrigerant across the industry. Supported by over 10,000 R&D experts and 42 pilot laboratories, Midea offers a complete R290 product portfolio. One highlight is the H-Pack indoor hybrid heat pump, developed by Midea’s European R&D and design team. Using R290 refrigerant, it combines high energy efficiency with a compact design and no outdoor unit. Its hybrid function allows seamless integration with gas boilers, ensuring reliable heating even in extreme cold. A clear example of Midea’s vision of driving a greener future through technology.

Raynor: Nordic Performance Meets Design Excellence

Also in the spotlight was Raynor, Midea’s flagship low temperature air-to-air heat pump. Boasting an A+++ energy rating and an industry leading SCOP of 5.1, Raynor ranks among the most efficient heat pumps on the market. Prototype testing demonstrated its ability to operate reliably at temperatures as low as -40°C, sustaining a 5.0 kW full heating capacity at -25°C and reaching up to 8.0 kW at peak output.

Raynor is designed to deliver exceptional durability and efficiency, even in the demanding conditions of Nordic coastal regions. Its advanced antifreeze and anti-corrosion technology, featuring Prime Guard Hyper Grapfins, a specially engineered chassis with a heating bottom plate, and Flash Defrost long lasting ceramic ball bearings, ensures reliable performance in extreme cold and humidity.


This combination of durability, efficiency, and design innovation has already won Raynor international acclaim, including the iF Design Award and the Red Dot Design Award. At IFA 2025, Leif Lindner, CEO of IFA Management presented the Excellent Heating Technology Innovation Gold Award to Vincent Chou, Vice President of Midea Residential Air Conditioning and Ralph Kobsik, General Manager of Midea Europe GmbH, further underscoring the product’s leadership in next generation heating solutions.

Solstice: AI-Driven Comfort

At the core of Solstice is Midea’s latest AI engine, ECOMASTER. Pretrained on billions of data points, ECOMASTER predicts environmental changes and optimizes energy use with remarkable precision. This allows the Solstice to maintain precise comfort within ±0.3°C while cutting energy consumption by over 30%.


Midea has announced its plan to collaborate with Microsoft in order to offer natural voice control through AI. Powered by Microsoft Azure, the technology would allow users, speaking in any one of 145 supported languages, the ability to interact in everyday language with their air conditioner.

Momcozy Honored at Kind+Jugend 2025 for Innovation in Maternal Care


COLOGNE, GERMANY – Media OutReach Newswire – 11 September 2025 – Momcozy, a global leader in maternal care and a pioneer of the Mom-First philosophy, announced at Kind+Jugend that its Ergonest Maternity Support Belt has won the 2025 Kind+Jugend Innovation Award. At the same time, the company unveiled its “Love & Loneliness” study on postpartum mental health and pledged €5,000 to support the Frauenmilchbank Initiative, advancing equitable access to donor breast milk for premature infants.

Kind+Jugend Innovation Award: A Breakthrough in Maternal Support

At the Kind+Jugend opening ceremony on September 9, Momcozy received the prestigious Innovation Award for its Ergonest Maternity Support Belt—the first to combine the patented Ergonest Support Structure™ with a unique O-shaped molding system.

“Love & Loneliness”: Spotlight on Maternal Mental Health

At a press luncheon during the tradeshow, Momcozy presented its latest “Love & Loneliness” study, conducted by Kantar. As part of its Mom-first commitment to easing this burden, Momcozy develops Cozy Tech solutions that simplify mothers’ lives. For example, the M9 smart hands-free breast pump, equipped with DoubleFit™ flanges, boosts pumping efficiency by 28%, helping mothers save time and reduce stress.

Experts emphasized the need for collective support:

Prof. Daniel Klotz highlighted the vital role of breast milk and milk banks, while IBCLC Julia Weidenmüller stressed the importance of restoring freedom and confidence for mothers. The event was moderated by Lina Bödecker, family health consultant and pediatric nurse.

Supporting the Women’s Milk Bank Initiative
At the event, Momcozy donated €5,000 to Frauenmilchbank Initiative e.V., supporting its mission to provide safe donor milk to premature and newborn babies in Germany. The initiative helps ensure proper nutrition for vulnerable infants when breastfeeding isn’t possible.

“Every baby deserves the best start in life,” said Sven Hering, Momcozy’s European Sales Director. “Supporting Frauenmilchbank lets us extend our Mom-First mission to ensure newborns receive the nutrition they need.”

Looking Ahead: Cozy by You Brand Day

Momcozy will soon launch its “Cozy by You” Brand Day, spotlighting authentic user voices through a new TV campaign and content platform. The initiative marks a shift from Brand Made for You” to “Brand Defined With You,” reinforcing the company’s Mom-First philosophy that true innovation begins with real mothers’ lived experiences.

Cheetah Mobile Announces Second Quarter 2025 Unaudited Consolidated Financial Results

BEIJING, Sept. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Cheetah Mobile Inc. (NYSE: CMCM) (“Cheetah Mobile” or the “Company”), a China-based IT company, today announced its unaudited consolidated financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Management Commentary

Mr. Sheng Fu, Cheetah Mobile’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, remarked, “We delivered another quarter of solid topline growth and meaningful improvement in profitability, underscoring the early progress of our strategic transformation. Total revenue increased 57.5% year-over-year, driven by strong performance of both of our reporting segments. Our Internet business continued to benefit from our transition to a subscription-based model, with growing user engagement and retention. Revenue from our AI and others segment grew 86.4% year-over-year and accounted for 46.5% of total revenue. With the planned addition of UFACTORY, our recently acquired robotic arm business, we aim to strengthen our robotics capabilities and expand our addressable market. We remain committed to investing in AI utility applications and robotics. Encouraged by our business momentum, we will continue to drive sustainable growth and long-term shareholder value.”

Mr. Thomas Ren, Chief Financial Officer of Cheetah Mobile, commented: “We continued to improve profitability in the second quarter, supported by disciplined execution and enhanced operational efficiency. Both GAAP and non-GAAP losses once again narrowed significantly year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter, reflecting meaningful progress in our loss reduction efforts. This demonstrates that our path to profitability is both credible and sustained. Our Internet business remained profitable, while adjusted operating losses from our AI and others segment declined significantly, down 62.8% year-over-year and 32.1% quarter-over-quarter, as we shifted from early exploration to a more focused, efficiency-driven strategy. Leveraging AI to accelerate R&D and scale up real-world use cases has contributed meaningfully to this improvement.

Safe Harbor Statement

This press release contains forward-looking statements. These statements, including management quotes and business outlook, constitute forward-looking statements under the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “will,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates” and similar statements. Such statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements, including but are not limited to the following: Cheetah Mobile’s growth strategies; Cheetah Mobile’s ability to retain and increase its user base and expand its product and service offerings; Cheetah Mobile’s ability to monetize its platform; Cheetah Mobile’s future business development, financial condition and results of operations; competition with companies in a number of industries including internet companies that provide online marketing services and internet value-added services; expected changes in Cheetah Mobile’s revenues and certain cost or expense items; and general economic and business condition globally and in China.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including but not limited to:

  • Non-GAAP cost of revenues excludes share-based compensation expenses;
  • Non-GAAP gross profit excludes share-based compensation expenses;
  • Non-GAAP gross margin excludes share-based compensation expenses;
  • Total non-GAAP operating expenses exclude share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets and impairment of goodwill resulting from business acquisitions;
  • Non-GAAP research and development expenses exclude share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions;
  • Non-GAAP selling and marketing expenses exclude share-based compensation expenses and amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions;
  • Non-GAAP general and administrative expenses exclude share-based compensation expenses;
  • Non-GAAP operating profit/loss excludes share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets and impairment of goodwill resulting from business acquisitions;
  • Non-GAAP net income/loss attributable to Cheetah Mobile shareholders excludes share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets and impairment of goodwill resulting from business acquisitions;

The Company reviews these non-GAAP financial measures together with GAAP financial measures to obtain a better understanding of its operating performance. It uses the non-GAAP financial measures for planning, forecasting and measuring results against the forecast. The Company believes that non-GAAP financial measures are useful supplemental information for investors and analysts to assess its operating performance without the effect of share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets and impairment of goodwill resulting from business acquisitions, which have been and will continue to be significant recurring expenses in its business. However, the use of non-GAAP financial measures has material limitations as an analytical tool. One of the limitations of using non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not include all items that impact the Company’s net income for the period. In addition, because non-GAAP financial measures are not measured in the same manner by all companies, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. In light of the foregoing limitations, you should not consider non-GAAP financial measure in isolation from or as an alternative to the financial measure prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the tables captioned “Cheetah Mobile Inc. Reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP Results”.

Thailand Advances Phra That Phanom Stupa Towards UNESCO World Heritage Status

Thailand approved the preliminary dossier to nominate Phra That Phanom Stupa as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This photo is used for representational purpose only. (Photo credit: Phra That Phanom temple)

Thailand, home to eight UNESCO World Heritage sites, is now advancing the nomination of Phra That Phanom Stupa, its historic buildings, and associated landscape by submitting the Preliminary Assessment dossier to the World Heritage Committee’s advisory bodies. 

On 8 September, the country’s National Committee on the World Heritage Convention approved the dossier, paving the way for the stupa’s official inscription.

Path to World Heritage Status

Phra That Phanom Stupa was first included on UNESCO’s Tentative List in February 2017 and received formal endorsement in July of the same year. 

Since then, national efforts have intensified.

Former Minister of Culture Sudawan Wangsupakitkosol announced full governmental support for achieving UNESCO inscription by 2027, which would make Phra That Phanom Thailand’s ninth World Heritage site and the 6th Cultural World Heritage Sites.

Former Thai Minister of Culture Sudawan Wangsupakitkosol during visit the Phra That Phanom Stupa in April 2025.

Thailand currently boasts eight UNESCO World Heritage sites: five cultural sites including the Historic Town of Sukhothai, Historic City of Ayutthaya , Ban Chiang Archaeological Site, Si Thep, and Phu Phrabat, plus three natural sites including Thungyai-Huai Kha Khaeng, Dong Phayayen-Khao Yai, and Kaeng Krachan.

Outstanding Universal Value

According to UNESCO, Phra That Phanom Stupa holds architectural and artistic significance, as it combines Cham, Thailand Northeast (Isaan), Lao Lane Xang (Present Laos), and Indian Buddhist styles with local Mekong influences, reflecting the creativity and spiritual identity of the people of Northeast Thailand. 

Moreover, UNESCO emphasizes its role in cultural exchange and regional influence, noting that the stupa embodies more than a millennium of interaction between Mekong communities and Hindu-Buddhist traditions from India, which helped shape regional architecture, art, and folk practices. 

UNESCO also recognizes the stupa as a living heritage site, as it continues to host Buddhist ceremonies, annual festivals, and local cultural practices, thereby reinforcing its enduring spiritual, social, and cultural significance across the Mekong River Basin.

Living Heritage

Located within Phra That Phanom Woramahawihan Temple in Nakhon Phanom Province, northeast Thailand, the stupa stands 600 meters from the Mekong River. 

Local chronicles claim it was built eight years after Buddha’s passing to enshrine his breastbone relic, though archaeological evidence dates the earliest structure to the 7th-8th centuries CE.

The site remains a center of worship. 

The annual Phra That Phanom Stupa festival, held during the third lunar month’s full moon (typically in late February or March), attracts thousands of devotees who participate in the ritualistic wrapping of the stupa with sacred cloth both from Thai and neighboring Lao people. 

Local belief holds that visiting seven times makes one a “child of the stupa”, life’s highest blessing. However, even visiting and paying respects just once is believed to bring good fortune.

Preservation Challenges

Despite its spiritual significance, Phra That Phanom Stupa has also faced serious preservation challenges over the years.

The stupa collapsed during heavy rains in August 1975, leading to extensive archaeological excavations that confirmed its ancient origins.

The Thailand’s Fine Arts Department registered it as an ancient monument in 1935, expanding protection to four hectares around the Monument in 1979.
