Prince Holding Group Wins Silver Stevie for Chen Zhi Scholarship, Advancing Educational Access in Cambodia
The Chen Zhi Scholarship Program, now in its fourth year, represents a seven-year, $2 million commitment championed by Neak Oknha Chen Zhi, chairman of Prince Holding Group. The initiative addresses a critical gap in Cambodia's educational infrastructure, where only 17.9 percent of youth access tertiary education.
This is the second consecutive year Prince Holding Group has been recognized in this category, underscoring the program's growing influence on Cambodia's educational landscape. The 2025 Asia-Pacific Stevie Awards attracted more than 1,000 entries from 29 markets across the region.
'This international recognition for the Chen Zhi Scholarship reflects our belief in education's transformative power,' said Gabriel Tan, chief communications officer of Prince Holding Group. 'The award reinforces our commitment to reaching students in communities where opportunity has historically been limited.'
In 2024, the scholarship selected 100 students from more than 1,900 applicants across multiple provinces. Beyond financial support, recipients participate in specialized workshops on artificial intelligence, public speaking, and financial literacy while gaining internship opportunities with over 50 partner companies of Prince Holding Group.
The program represents a significant private sector intervention in Cambodia's education system, which continues to rebuild following decades of conflict and underinvestment. By providing 400 students with comprehensive support including mentorship and skills development, the initiative addresses both immediate educational needs and longer-term workforce development challenges.
Administered by Prince Foundation, the Group's philanthropic arm, in collaboration with Cambodia's Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport, the program aligns with national priorities to expand educational access and develop skilled professionals who can contribute to Cambodia's economic diversification and growth.
The Stevie Awards, considered premier business honors globally, have recognized excellence in the Asia-Pacific region for over a decade. This year's winners include organizations from 23 markets, including Cambodia, Australia, Japan, Singapore, and Vietnam.

ReCerf Receives its CE Mark, Advancing Access to Ceramic Hip Resurfacing Across Europe
LEATHERHEAD, England, July 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — MatOrtho® is proud to announce that the ReCerf® Hip Resurfacing Arthroplasty (HRA) has received its CE mark, confirming compliance with European safety and performance standards. This important milestone expands access to hip resurfacing, enabling wider availability across the UK, Europe and internationally where CE marking supports market access. 'This is more than a regulatory milestone. It represents two decades of focused effort to improve hip resurfacing through an advanced material,' said Mike Tuke, Founder of MatOrtho. 'That became a possibility with BIOLOX® delta and cooperation with CeramTec A.G. which led in stages to ReCerf – an all-ceramic resurfacing implant that is already delivering excellent results. We're proud to make this more widely available to specialist hip resurfacing surgeons, and patients who want to stay active.' ReCerf is the world's first commercially available ceramic HRA, first approved by Australia's Therapeutic Goods Administration in November 2024. Since its initial use in 2018, over 1,600 patients have received the device. Patient-reported outcomes are highly positive, and the revision rate remains very low up to six years. Made from BIOLOX® delta ceramic, ReCerf eliminates concerns historically associated with metal-on-metal bearings and preserves more of the patient's natural bone. For surgeons, it offers a familiar procedure underpinned by improved materials, and is supported by a company long recognised as the home of modern hip resurfacing. ReCerf's availability under CE marking is matched by a strong commitment to responsible adoption. MatOrtho supports structured education, careful patient selection, and ongoing clinical monitoring. A peer-led surgeon training programme is already in place to ensure safe and effective use. This achievement strengthens MatOrtho's strategic growth and reaffirms its leadership in pioneering orthopaedic solutions designed to restore normal joint function and support high level activity.
