AUPU's ARCHIDEX 2025 Triumph: Redefining Home Comfort in SE Asia
The brand's success hinges on three key pillars: functionality, wellness, and localization. Take the Beauty Fan & Heater: beyond heating and ventilation, its integration of infrared therapy taps into rising consumer demand for 'wellness-at-home' solutions, blending utility with self-care—a trend resonating strongly across urban Southeast Asia.
In humid markets like Malaysia, the Cloth Dryer addressed a critical gap. Its ceiling-mounted design, UV sterilization, and rapid drying capabilities directly solve moisture-related challenges, aligning with local needs for space efficiency and hygiene. Attendees—from architects to homeowners—praised its ability to merge practicality with regional relevance, a hallmark of AUPU's market positioning.

The Central Kitchen Air Conditioner further demonstrated this approach. Traditional ACs struggle in kitchens due to grease and heat, but AUPU's specialized design—with targeted airflow and durable components—reimagines cooking spaces as comfortable, usable areas. This innovation reflects a deep understanding of how families live: kitchens aren't just for cooking; they're social hubs.
Technologically, AUPU's edge lies in seamless integration. AI-powered temperature regulation, motion-sensing ventilation, and smart energy management aren't add-ons—they're core to the user experience. These features don't just boost performance; they reduce operational hassle, a key differentiator in a crowded market.
Looking ahead, AUPU's upcoming Kuala Lumpur flagship store (S-01-05, D'Rapport Ampang) signals more than expansion—it's a commitment to accessibility. By moving from exhibition halls to a physical retail hub, the brand bridges the gap between innovation and adoption, making premium comfort tech tangible for Malaysian households.
In short, ARCHIDEX 2025 wasn't just a win for AUPU—it was proof that home comfort, when rooted in local needs and smart tech, can redefine how we live.

As a global leader in the B2B cross-border trade payment sector, XTransfer is committed to providing SMEs with secure, convenient, and compliant one-stop cross-border financial solutions, enabling businesses to capitalise on the immense opportunities in emerging markets. Bill Deng, Founder and CEO of XTransfer, attends the 01VC CEO Summit 2025. Recently, Bill Deng, Founder and CEO of XTransfer, was invited to attend the 01VC CEO Summit 2025. During the roundtable discussion focused on new dynamics in cross-border trade, Bill highlighted, 'Today, for every 100 RMB in Chinese exports, 2 RMB are settled through XTransfer, and one-tenth of SME foreign trade enterprises have registered on our platform. With access to firsthand data insights, we are uniquely positioned to capture shifts in global trade flows.' ADVERTISEMENT Digitalisation Driving New Integration: Enterprises Must Seize Opportunities in Emerging Markets In recent years, tariff wars and trade frictions have forced Chinese export enterprises to review their global market strategies. Bill explained, 'Digitalisation is accelerating the redistribution of global trade. While the share of the U.S. market declines, emerging markets in Southeast Asia and Africa are rapidly absorbing this growth. Markets in Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin America are becoming the 'blue ocean' for Chinese enterprises expanding globally.' Data from our platform shows that over 70% of all clients on the XTransfer platform in the first half of 2025 exported to Asia, Africa, or Latin America.

'For the past three years, the primary theme of this conference has been how to discover emerging markets beyond the United States. The opportunities in these markets are enormous, and by establishing a presence now, companies will enjoy a first-mover advantage over the next decade,' Bill shared. Bill further remarked, 'After COVID, we observed a rapid improvement in global digitalisation levels. Therefore, I believe the global opportunities for China's industrial chains will become even more substantial. Businesses must go global, particularly by focusing on less developed countries, to capture the new dividends brought by digital integration. This is why we fully support our clients in accelerating their diversification into multiple markets.' XTransfer to Continue Upgrading Its Digital Platform and Building a Global Localised Service Network XTransfer will continue to enhance its digital capabilities and actively promote the establishment of a globally localised service network to assist SMEs in securely, conveniently, and compliantly exploring overseas markets.

Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy Releases Strategic Roadmap for ASEAN's 5G-AI Transformation
New Research Reveals US$130 Billion Economic Opportunity and Outlines Policy Framework to Accelerate Regional Digital Leadership by 2030 SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 22 July 2025 – The Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy (LKYSPP) today released a comprehensive research report outlining how ASEAN can harness 5G and artificial intelligence convergence for transformative economic growth. The study, 'Leveraging 5G to Accelerate AI-Driven Transformation in ASEAN: Imperatives, Policy Insights, and Recommendations,' provides policymakers with actionable strategies to unlock the region's digital potential. Prof. Vu Minh Khuong, Practice Professor at the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, National University of Singapore, at the report launch event ASEAN faces a critical window of opportunity. The research shows 5G alone is projected to contribute US$130 billion to Asia Pacific's economy by 2030. However, adoption remains uneven across the region — ranging from 48.3% penetration in Singapore to less than 1% in several ASEAN member states. Without coordinated action, these disparities risk deepening digital divides and weakening regional competitiveness. ASEAN may be left behind as other regions accelerate their digital transformation. ADVERTISEMENT 'The convergence of 5G and AI represents the infrastructure of innovation, powering smart manufacturing, precision agriculture, and autonomous mobility. But ASEAN cannot afford to wait. The window for establishing regional leadership in intelligent connectivity is rapidly closing,' said Professor Vu Minh Khuong from LKYSPP. 'Our report provides ASEAN policymakers with a blueprint to navigate the complex intersection of 5G and AI integration, and now policymakers must act decisively. Coordinated strategies that can accelerate regional leadership in intelligent connectivity must be established to help the region move beyond incremental improvements toward transformative digital leadership.' The LKYSPP study, drawing from extensive stakeholder interviews and survey responses from over 400 professionals across eight ASEAN countries, identifies ten critical imperatives for accelerating 5G-AI transformation, beginning with establishing coordinated digital leadership to address fragmentation that is currently slowing regional progress. ASEAN governments should treat 5G as a strategic AI enabler — not merely a telecom upgrade — while addressing the widening skills gaps that are impeding enterprise adoption across the region. To secure ASEAN's digital future, the report recommends implementing five strategic priorities: Establishing national 5G-AI development strategies with clear 2025-2030 roadmaps; Creating empowered coordination agencies in ASEAN member countries; Deploying forward-looking spectrum policies that promote accessibility and innovation; Fostering vibrant AI-driven ecosystems through public-private collaboration; and Implementing robust monitoring frameworks to track progress and enable course corrections. The LKYSPP report emphasises that enterprise adoption should be prioritised as the primary driver of 5G's economic impact. Looking across the region, there is much potential and notable examples of success: Singapore's 5G-powered smart ports have achieved 50% latency reduction, Thailand has deployed AI-enhanced disaster management systems, and Malaysia's wholesale network model has reached 82% population coverage. These examples illustrate the potential for transformative impacts when coordinated strategies are effectively implemented. According to the LKYSPP research report, private 5G networks are essential for Industry 4.0 transformation, while Fixed Wireless Access offers a compelling solution for bridging connectivity gaps in underserved areas. The report also positions current 5G deployment as critical infrastructure for 6G evolution expected by 2030, making today's strategic decisions particularly important for future competitiveness. ADVERTISEMENT Looking ahead, the study envisions ASEAN leading a 5G-AI powered future where enterprises scale globally through intelligent manufacturing, farmers optimise yields using AI-driven analytics, and students in remote areas access immersive education platforms. Realizing this vision requires bold coordinated action, strategic coordination and planning, and sustained commitment to digital transformation. The comprehensive 148-page report and executive summary are now available for download. The findings serve as both a strategic guide for policymakers and a call to action for regional institutions to seize the 5G-AI moment and shape a digitally empowered future for ASEAN's 700 million citizens.
