HONG KONG, March 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Sino Group (‘the Group’) is pleased to announce that Sino Land Company Limited (‘Sino Land’) (Stock Code: 0083.HK) has been ranked among the Global Top 5% in the Real Estate Management & Development industry in the S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook 2026. Among over 9,200 companies assessed worldwide, Sino Land is the only developer from Hong Kong to receive this recognition. This marks the company’s fourth consecutive inclusion in the Yearbook and its first ranking in the Global Top 5%.

The Sustainability Yearbook, published by S&P Global, recognises companies that demonstrate sustained execution, credible disclosure, and year‑over‑year improvement in sustainability performance, based on the annual Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA).

This recognition reflects the collective efforts of our teams and our ongoing commitment to integrating sustainability into our operations through collaboration, responsible practices, and community engagement. I extend my heartfelt thanks to our colleagues, like-minded suppliers, partners, and the communities we work with for their unwavering support and dedication.

As we continue our sustainability journey, we remain committed to working closely with our stakeholders to build resilience and create long-term sustainable value.’

BARCELONA, Spain, March 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — At MWC Barcelona 2026, HUAWEI eKit unveiled a new portfolio of MiniFTTO products designed to redefine the network experience. With outstanding user experience, simplified deployment, and intelligent O&M capabilities, the launch highlighted Huawei’s systematic innovation and scenario-driven achievements through three products: StreamerKit, GS-PON optical gateway, and the 3-in-1 optical AP.

Speaking at the launch event, Leonard Liu, President of Commercial & Distribution Solution, Huawei, said: “In business scenarios, customers are particularly concerned about the deployment cost and time. In addition, the rapid growth of high-bandwidth services such as HD streaming in recent years has raised new requirements for network bandwidth and stability.” He continued that “Huawei’s new MiniFTTO products not only address these evolving requirements, but also deliver simple, easy-to-use solutions that help SMEs reduce deployment costs, paving the way toward an intelligent world.”

GS-PON optical gateway and StreamerKit: Breaking the upstream bottleneck for smooth network experience

The StreamerKit F700C and GS-PON optical gateway F1001 released this time around leverage the industry-leading symmetric 2.5G PON technology. With both upstream and downstream bandwidths reaching 2.5 Gbit/s, the new products deliver a 100% improvement in upstream transmission. These devices not only meet the requirements for live streaming, video conferencing, and cloud backup, but also providing headroom for future applications such as 8K ultra-HD and VR/AR.

In terms of functionality, StreamerKit integrates the live streaming acceleration engine and an AI roaming algorithm. StreamerKit can intelligently identifies live streaming services and dynamically prioritizes them, significantly reducing frame freezing. Meanwhile, the AI roaming algorithm employs AI-guided fast handover to enhance the seamless roaming experience, ensuring reliable connections for video conferencing and live streaming.

3-in-1 optical AP: One fiber for multiple services, setting a new standard for hotel network

For multi-service access scenarios, such as hotel guest rooms, HUAWEI eKit has launched the new 3-in-1 optical AP F601D. The device supports telephone, Wi-Fi, wired Internet access, and IPTV over a single fiber, greatly reducing cabling costs and construction time. As a result, overall network costs can be reduced by approximately 30%. Additionally, the new device is 40% smaller, significantly improving both aesthetics and deployment efficiency.

In the future, HUAWEI eKit will continue to collaborate with partners to drive the intelligent transformation of SMEs through further scenario-based innovations.

Convening cross-sector leaders to align capital, policy and innovation around measurable healthspan outcomes

HONG KONG, March 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — MaestroWellness announces the inaugural Build Well Live Well (BWLW) Summit, a cross-sector forum in Hong Kong bringing together policymakers, healthcare leaders, investors and technology innovators to examine how Asia can sustainably extend healthspan and financial resilience. Taking place on 26 March at Soho House Hong Kong, the Summit is designed to foster alignment across capital, science and policy to address the structural challenge of longevity. The Summit is convened for decision-makers across investment, healthcare, corporate leadership and public policy who are actively shaping Asia’s longevity economy.

As Asia’s population of nearly five billion people ages at unprecedented speed, the defining question is no longer how long people live, but how well. By 2050, 25.9% of the Asia-Pacific population is projected to be aged 60 or above, placing unprecedented pressure on healthcare systems, retirement structures and economic productivity. While life expectancy continues to rise, with Hong Kong leading the world at over 85 years on average, healthspan and financial resilience have not kept pace.

The BWLW Summit positions Hong Kong at the forefront of redefining longevity as both a public health and economic priority.

Attendees will have the opportunity to connect with global leaders including keynote speakers Bernard Chan (GBM, GBS, JP), Hong Kong politician and businessman, and Frederick Chavalit Tsao, fourth-generation steward of Tsao Pao Chee (TPC), a family enterprise with more than 120 years of history and Chairman of the Association for Well-being Economy (AWE). They will be joined by Gordon Watson, Senior Advisor to the AXA Group, alongside global wellbeing advocates and business leaders, reinforcing the Summit’s commitment to cross-sector leadership in redefining wellbeing at scale.

Speakers include David Boucher, former Chief Executive Officer of Bumrungrad International Hospital Phuket & Market; Dr. Felix Lee of The GBA Healthcare Group; and Dr. Gloria Jian, founder of Health Cell Cycle. Together, they will present evidence-based approaches spanning preventative health science, cross-border healthcare delivery and longevity-focused investment models.

Dr. Felix Lee, Co-CEO of The GBA Healthcare Group, will share perspectives on how healthcare systems must evolve from episodic treatment models to integrated prevention ecosystems, aligning primary care, insurance design and digital infrastructure to sustainably extend healthspan across ageing populations.

“In Hong Kong, where longevity is a legacy, we’re not just extending lives, we’re elevating them. BWLW is intended to be a catalyst for change, where conscious leadership meets purposeful action to shape healthier, wealthier and more resilient communities across Asia,” said Jasmine Liu, Founder & CEO of MaestroWellness.

In addition to panels and keynotes on extending healthspan through technology, sustainable wealth creation in wellness and policy frameworks for equitable access, BWLW will host collaborative workshops to co-design solutions for Asia’s most pressing wellbeing challenges, including mental health resilience and ageing with dignity in high-density cities.

Amongst other solutions-driven conversations, Jacky Lio, Chief Medical Officer of Bowtie, Hong Kong’s first virtual insurer, will explore how insurance design and underwriting models can evolve to incentivise preventative health behaviours and better align long-term risk assessment with health outcomes in ageing populations.

Jean-Baptiste Roy, Partner at Seveno Capital, will share perspectives on capital strategies within the wellbeing economy, examining how investment frameworks can support scalable, resilience-driven health models. Panels will dive into contemporary biohacking practices such as enhanced sleep quality, and breathing techniques (either for activation or de-stressing) and demonstrate how employers can maximise productivity by supporting these best practices. Yvette Kong, Olympic swimmer-turned-innovator and founder of Arelyx and Transversal Lab, brings expertise in transversal design, social impact, and education to the summit.

In addition, Maaike Steinebach, Founder and CEO of FemTech Future, and Steffanie Yuen, Managing Director, Head of Hong Kong, Endowus, will also be present at the Summit as panel speakers, contributing their perspectives to other sessions.

Tech Infrastructure panel will discuss how urgent infrastructure gaps like fragmented biological datasets can easily be addressed by generative AI platforms that accelerate drug discovery and personalise longevity interventions.

The Summit will also feature “Pitch: Fuel Your Wellbeing Venture,” a curated Shark Tank–inspired session spotlighting Asia’s most promising health and wellbeing startups. Selected finalists will present to a panel of venture capital investors and senior industry leaders, gaining direct access to capital, strategic partnerships and market insight. The initiative reflects BWLW’s commitment to advancing scalable solutions that can shape the region’s longevity landscape.

In addition to its curated pitch session, the Summit unlocks high value networking and interactive opportunities across Asia’s emerging longevity ecosystem. A dedicated vendor showcase will highlight cutting-edge companies that share MaestroWellness’ goal of a quality-driven marketplace or wellbeing and provide direct access to business executives and investors.

The Summit is sponsored by Invest Hong Kong, reinforcing Hong Kong’s role as a regional hub for capital formation and innovation. By convening wealth management leaders, venture capital firms and family offices, BWLW strengthens investment pathways for scalable health and longevity solutions. Key sponsor Finmo reflects the growing integration of financial infrastructure within holistic wellbeing systems, highlighting the importance of coordinated action across policy, capital and enterprise to close the healthspan-wealthspan gap.

GUANGZHOU, China, March 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The American Chamber of Commerce in South China today released its 2026 Special Report on the State of Business in South China. The release was attended by over 200 government officials, business executives and members of media including over 40 foreign consulates mostly represented by their consuls general. This publication can be downloaded free of charge from the Chamber’s website at http://www.amcham-southchina.com/amcham/static/publications/specialreport.jsp

The 206-page bilingual 2026 Special Report on the State of the Business in South China, the 22^nd such endeavor, provides a comprehensive and quantitative analysis of the business community and valuable insights into the development trends in South China. This year, a total of 426 companies participated in the study. This publication is researched and produced independently by the American Chamber of Commerce in South China and does not represent the opinions of the US or any other government or organization. The Chamber does not receive any funds from any government in the production of this publication.

China’s Strategic Allure Intensifies

Despite ongoing trade tensions, China’s position as a leading global investment destination continues to strengthen. 45% of the companies studied ranked China as their top global investment priority, representing a notable 6pp increase from 2024. Revenue data further underscores this strategic emphasis: 37% of companies generated more than 60% of their global revenue from China, a 6pp increase.

Dr. Harley Seyedin, Chairman and President of AmCham South China, winner of 2017 Oslo Business for Peace Award (along with Elon Musk, Durreen Shahnaz and Murad Al-Katib), which is bestowed by an Award Committee consisting of Nobel Laureates in Peace and Economics, said, “Although profitability has moderated slightly in the near term, the broader data reflects remarkable strategic resilience. Companies are deepening—not retreating from—their engagement in China, recognizing the scale of its market, the sophistication of its innovation ecosystem, and its long-term growth trajectory.”

Sustained and Deepening Market Commitment

The 2026 Special Report highlights exceptional levels of commitment to the Chinese market:

• 95% of participating companies reaffirm their commitment to maintaining operations in China.
• Not a single company reported a complete withdrawal from the market.
• Among the 28% that relocated a portion of their investments, 79% shifted less than 30% of their investment outside China.

Looking ahead, 75% of the companies studied plan to reinvest in China in 2026. Collectively, member companies have earmarked an estimated US$13.79 billion from profits in China for reinvestment over the next three to five years.

“The message from American businesses is clear: they are committed to long-term participation in China’s growth.” Dr. Seyedin continued, “Companies are reinvesting not only to expand market share, but to innovate, localize, and strengthen their integration within the Chinese economy. This sustained reinvestment reflects confidence in the market’s resilience and its central role in global business operations.”

Improving Sentiment on US-China Relations

Business sentiment regarding the future of US-China relations has improved significantly. The Report shows that 39% of all studied companies now express a positive outlook—a substantial 14pp increase from 2024. While many companies still anticipate the possibility of continued trade tensions in 2026, there is a growing expectation that the operational disruptions will be shorter in duration and more manageable.

Dr. Seyedin noted: “The US and Chinese economies are deeply interconnected. While differences remain, our commercial ties are substantial and mutually beneficial. Continued dialogue, transparency, and engagement between the two countries will foster greater understanding—creating a more stable environment for trade, investment, and long-term economic cooperation.”

Key Takeaways of the 2026 Special Report on the State of Business in South China:

• In 2025, 45% of the companies studied reported either a significant or slight increase in revenue in China, reflecting a 2pp decline from the previous year. Meanwhile, the proportion of companies indicating unchanged revenue rose by 4pp to 21%.
• The overall financial performance of the companies studied in China continued to soften in 2025, with 82% reporting profitability, representing a 3pp drop year-on-year.
• Among companies reporting profitability in China, 37% indicated that their financial performance aligned with budget projections, while an additional 6% significantly exceeded expectations. For companies not yet profitable in China, 78% expect to achieve profitability within two to five years. Meanwhile, the proportion anticipating a longer path to profitability—exceeding six years—increased by 8pp to 16%.
• 74% of the companies studied characterized their overall return on investment (ROI) in China as positive or very positive. 42% assessed their overall ROI in China as superior to their global ROI, representing a 3pp increase year-on-year.
• The proportion of companies expressing optimism regarding their business prospects in China increased by 4pp year-on-year to 61%.
• In 2025, 63% of the companies studied reported reinvesting operations in China, representing a modest increase of 2pp year-on-year.
• In 2025, capital deployment for reinvestment remained concentrated at more modest scales, with a majority of companies (76%) directing under US$10 million into their China operations. This closely aligned with the proportion of firms (77%) that had originally budgeted within this range.
• The overwhelming majority of companies have budgeted less than US$10 million for re-investment in China in 2026, representing 79% of firms—a 2pp increase year-on-year. Meanwhile, the proportion allocating a mid-range budget of US$50 million to US$250 million for the coming year grew by 3pp to 5%. Notably, the share of companies planning large-scale reinvestments exceeding US$250 million contracted by 2pp, declining to just 4%.
• A stable majority of companies (59%) plan to expand their operational footprint within China over the next three years.
• For the ninth consecutive year, Guangzhou has been ranked the top investment destination in China, selected by 38% of respondents. Following closely is Shenzhen, which saw a notable gain of 6pp to reach 29%, ahead of Shanghai (10%) and Beijing (5%).
• The adverse effects of both US and Chinese tariffs have intensified markedly in 2025, affecting a record proportion of companies since tracking began in 2018. American companies, in particular, continued to bear the heaviest burden.
