2025 年 9 月 28 日，上海陸家嘴國際會展中心。 一場低調卻重量級的簽約儀式，正悄悄牽動著全球航運的未來。Matson 亞太市場總經銷商林億朗，與 Matson 上海分公司國際銷售總監 Mark Jordan，正式完成合作簽署。此舉不僅象徵著台灣取得 Matson 國際航運在地代理權，同時授權林億朗成為「國際航運資源與代理拓展」的台灣區代理，更代表亞太供應鏈即將邁入嶄新階段。 對外界而言，這是一份關於航運的合約；但對業界來說，這是足以重塑市場格局的一次歷史性事件。 少年的航海夢，跨越時代的堅持 林億朗的故事，起點並非一帆風順的家族資源，而是少年時的一份純粹好奇。 十多歲時，他常站在基隆港邊，看著一艘艘貨輪駛離，腦中浮現的不是港口的繁忙，而是「它們的終點在哪裡？」 當時的他就立下決心，要用自己的力量，把「台灣」這兩個字，放進世界航運的關鍵版圖裡。 多年後，他用行動證明：少年的夢想不只是幻想，而是能改變現實的力量。 三十國的足跡，鍛鍊出的國際視野 成為航運業者之前，林億朗先走上了一條「全球歷練」之路。二十年來，他足跡遍及超過三十個國家，從東南亞的轉口港，到歐洲的內陸物流樞紐，他親身觀察、參與每一段供應鏈運作。 不同於單純的市場拓展，他把旅行與公益相結合，創立「旅途之味 | 心走世界」社群，鼓勵年輕世代藉由旅行累積國際視野，同時在偏鄉發起教育資源計畫。這份「看見世界、回饋社會」的格局，也成為他日後贏得 Matson 青睞的重要原因。 隨著簽下 Matson「國際航運資源與代理拓展」台灣代理權，林億朗計劃導入智慧物流、數據化管理及綠色航運方案，讓台灣在國際舞台上不僅是參與者，更能成為推動亞太航運發展的重要力量。 在簽約現場，Matson 上海分公司國際銷售總監 Mark Jordan 明確點出原因： 「台灣在亞太市場的戰略地位早已不容忽視，而林億朗的格局、專業與責任感，讓我們看見了未來十年的合作可能。」 一句「未來十年」，顯示這不只是一份代理權，更是一份長遠的國際信任。 航運不只是運輸，而是世界的對話 對林億朗而言，航運從來不只是「貨櫃的堆疊」。 他說：「每一個貨櫃，都是兩個國家之間的交流。它可能是一台科技產品、一批藥物，甚至是一家新創企業的第一批貨源。這些看似冰冷的鋼鐵箱，其實裝著一個又一個故事、一份份信任。」 這種帶著文化高度的思維，讓他在國際舞台上，從不僅僅被視為一名「代理商」，而是能重新定義航運價值的推動者。 台灣的新定位：亞太樞紐的再造 這份合作，對台灣意義深遠。 過去，台灣在國際航運多半扮演加工與轉口角色，如今，透過 Matson 的全球網絡，台灣有機會被重新定位為「亞太樞紐核心」。 林億朗透露，未來將導入智慧物流與數位平台，推動透明化與數據化管理，讓航運從傳統走向智慧化，並積極導入綠能船舶與減碳技術，帶領台灣在「永續航運」議題上走在前端。 「效率與永續，會是未來十年的核心競爭力。台灣，準備好了。」他語氣堅定。 與世界對話的企業家 不同於許多專注於營收數字的業者，林億朗更在乎的是「台灣如何被看見」。 透過他的社群與公益計畫，他把更多年輕人帶出國際，也把國際的視角帶回台灣。對他來說，這次簽約不只是商業突破，而是一個「文化與經濟雙重交流」的新起點。 他相信：一個真正的企業家，不只是談判桌上的勝利者，更應是能帶來社會價值與國際影響力的「世界公民」。 一場足以改寫格局的簽約 2025 年 9 月 28 日的上海，不只是簽約的日子，也可能是歷史將被記住的一天。 因為這份合作，Matson 在亞太市場的布局更加完整，台灣的戰略角色更加清晰，而林億朗，也從一個懷抱夢想的少年，正式蛻變為能牽動市場格局的國際企業家。 未來，當更多貨輪在藍色大洋上航行，它們不只會載著商品，更會承載著「台灣在世界地圖上的新位置」。 「航運的終點不是港口，而是世界更緊密的連結。」 林億朗的這句話，如今，正化為現實。

SINGAPORE – September 27, 2025 – (SeaPRwire) – Academic Labs, the team building the first Universal Database of Knowledge for decentralized autonomous learning, has secured a strategic investment from Evergreen Profits. The announcement follows the recent listing of Academic Labs’ native token, $AAX, on Biconomy—an inflection point that broadens liquidity and participation while aligning incentives across developers, contributors, and institutional partners. What is Academic Labs? Academic Labs is architecting a transparent, interoperable knowledge layer where AI agents can autonomously learn, verify, and teach skills. By combining gamified learning, DAO-based governance, and data interoperability, the project aims to create a consensus-driven intelligence substrate that is open, verifiable, and portable across ecosystems. Since launching its MVP in January 2024, Academic Labs has seen rapid adoption—200,000 videos and challenges completed in the first month—alongside notable community and institutional engagement through hackathons and courses at QS Top 50 universities. Its Project Education initiative now supports over 20 ecosystems and reaches more than two million people worldwide. On the market front, the project recorded over $6M in first-day trading volume on Gate and completed BGA’s light incubation program under Bybit. Strategic Timing: Post-$AAX Biconomy Listing The timing of Evergreen Profits’ investment is strategically significant. With $AAX newly listed on Biconomy, Academic Labs gains distribution that can anchor real utility: staking for curation and quality assurance, contributor rewards for challenge creation and validation, and governance participation in how the Universal Knowledge Graph is expanded and audited. Investor Fit and Complementarity Evergreen Profits’ thesis-driven approach—built on adapting to cyclical market regimes—complements this next phase by emphasizing operational discipline, risk-aware growth, and standards that support long-term composability. Their portfolio experience across AI, data, and Web3 is expected to inform Academic Labs’ interoperability roadmap and agent-facing APIs. The investment will be directed toward three priorities. First, deepening the core protocol: advancing the Universal Knowledge Graph, extending agent APIs, and implementing on-chain verifiable credentials for proof-of-skill. Second, strengthening governance and incentives: refining DAO mechanisms for reputation, staking, and curation to ensure that knowledge ingestion and validation are transparent, auditable, and resistant to manipulation. Third, accelerating ecosystem growth: expanding university partnerships, developer programs, and cross-chain integrations so that content supply, challenge design, and agent training data scale in tandem with quality controls. What distinguishes this partnership is its emphasis on verifiability and portability. In an environment increasingly shaped by agentic AI, the bottleneck is not model capacity but trustworthy, structured knowledge and the signals that govern its use. By coupling $AAX’s broadened liquidity with Evergreen Profits’ cycle-aware capital and operational guidance, Academic Labs aims to turn raw educational content into an on-chain, consensus-curated knowledge asset that AI agents can query, learn from, and contribute back to—while users retain visibility into provenance and incentives. About Academic Labs Academic Labs is building the 1st Universal Database of Knowledge that empowers decentralized autonomous learning for AI agents that assist users in acquiring skills and knowledge, fostering consensus-based intelligence for all of human society. Through gamification, DAOs, and data interoperability, we offer a limitless, transparent, and personalized channel for sharing and learning various skills.

On September 12, 2025, Chinese designer toy brand HEYONE launched a month-long large-scale themed pop-up event at Bangkok’s iconic commercial and cultural complex, ICONSIAM. The event, themed “Heyday Playland,” covers more than 1,000 square meters, becoming a new landmark for Bangkok’s designer toy culture. As of press time, the event has already attracted more than 5,000 visitors for on-site viewing and purchases. Multiple Thai mainstream media outlets such as Daily News and Bangkok Post reported live from the event, while well-known celebrities including Pond Ponlawit and ICE PARISS made appearances. With a series of limited new products released successively, the event’s influence has further expanded, making it one of the most influential cultural events in Thailand’s designer toy sector this September. MIMI Designer Signing Event, Chinese-Style Series Reaches Record Popularity Founded in 2022, HEYONE focuses on creating trendy culture and sharing pure playfulness. The brand has developed an IP portfolio represented by “OZAl” “MIMI,” and “R3NA,” which has been well-received by designer toy enthusiasts at home and abroad, becoming one of the most closely followed original Chinese toy labels. At this event, HEYONE launched new editions of representative IPs including “OZAl– The Silent Tragicomedy” and “MIMI – Full Moon Moment,” which were warmly welcomed by fans. The much-anticipated overseas-exclusive blind box series “MIMI – Jiuzhou Odyssey” was also launched on September 13. With MIMI traveling across China as its theme, the series ingeniously incorporates classical Chinese aesthetic elements such as oil-paper umbrellas, lanterns, and scrolls. The storyline includes representative locations such as Sichuan and Chang’an, showcasing the natural and cultural essence of traditional China. The products sold out immediately upon release. Since its creation, MIMI has released more than ten series. With its outstanding Chinese-inspired designs and profound cultural foundation, it has been widely loved by designer toy enthusiasts. Series such as “MIMI – WuShi Xiao YaoGuai” and “MIMI – The Poem of Nature” went viral, leading to MIMI being hailed as the “No.1 Chinese-style IP” in the designer toy world. This event marked the first offline release of the “MIMI – Jiuzhou Odyssey” series. At the launch ceremony, designer HUHU held a signing session for fans, posed for photos, interacted warmly, and carefully listened to their impressions and suggestions about the new release. HUHU said: “Chinese aesthetics are the soul of MIMI. This overseas-exclusive collection is designed to make MIMI a cultural link, allowing global fans to appreciate the landscapes of China and experience the profound charm and unique beauty of traditional Chinese culture.” One fan, after the interaction, could not hide her joy, saying: “It is such an honor to meet HUHU. I have always been fascinated by traditional Chinese culture, and MIMI perfectly captures the essence of Chinese aesthetics. The ‘Jiuzhou Odyssey’ series is compelling from its design to its story, and it makes me look forward even more to Chinese-style designer toys.” Viral Success in Thailand, HEYONE Uses Designer Toys to Spread Chinese Culture Since the second half of this year, HEYONE has actively participated in major international exhibitions in South Korea, Indonesia, and Singapore, and launched pop-up events in various global markets. This collaboration with Bangkok’s well-known commercial center ICONSIAM marks the first stop of the global “Heyday Playland” pop-up tour. HEYONE has long cultivated the Thai market, having exhibited at the Thailand Toy Expo (TTE) for three consecutive years. At this year’s expo, HEYONE presented the MIMI series new product “Ice Age Baby Elephant,” which sparked heated discussions. This Thailand-themed limited edition incorporated the auspicious symbolism of elephants in Thai culture with traditional Chinese design, blending Thai patterns with glacial motifs. While preserving MIMI’s Chinese aesthetic, it cleverly infused local cultural elements, and was enthusiastically welcomed by Thai consumers. Driven by the wave of globalization, designer toys have become a new force for spreading Chinese culture abroad, standing out in overseas markets with unique charm. Represented by MIMI, HEYONE’s original IPs have become cultural phenomena thanks to their deep cultural content and emotional resonance. The success of the “Heyday Playland” pop-up in Bangkok shows that Chinese traditional culture, carried through designer toys, is gaining popularity worldwide. For HEYONE, the mission has gone beyond simply “selling products” to taking on the role of “spreading culture.” Looking ahead, designer toys are expected to become a new “language” for dialogue between China and the world, vividly telling Chinese stories, promoting culture, and fostering multicultural exchange. As a leading brand in the designer toy industry, HEYONE has already made its mark internationally. Moving forward, it will continue to play a leading role, injecting strong momentum into the global expansion of Chinese designer toy culture and helping Chinese culture shine on the world stage.

As U.S.-China trade tensions continue to escalate and global geopolitical risks intensify, Taiwan’s export-oriented economy is facing severe challenges. To strengthen national capital resilience and stabilize the long-term fiscal structure, the Executive Yuan is actively studying the establishment of a “Taiwan Sovereign Wealth Fund,” modeled after Singapore’s Temasek Holdings and the Government Investment Corporation (GIC), with the goal of creating an internationally competitive state-level asset management system. According to sources in both political and financial circles, planning for the sovereign wealth fund has already entered the preliminary framework stage. Taking into account Taiwan’s political climate and current regulatory environment, the government is inclined to adopt a “private sector first, institutional framework later” strategy. Through private financial institutions, pilot experiments will be gradually promoted to accumulate operational experience and establish a monitoring mechanism, thereby creating dual support from both institutional and capital perspectives. Insiders revealed that “PIMCO Pacific Securities Investment Advisory Co., Ltd.,” a subsidiary established by PIMCO in Taiwan, has recently begun initiating strategic capital allocations and asset adjustments, while simultaneously building a financial platform that aligns with the nation’s sovereign asset strategy—potentially becoming one of the policy’s pilot arenas. Other sources noted that Cheng-An Lynn, CEO of Asia-Pacific Cloud Technology and a former member of Taiwan’s national capital market task force, has long been involved in advancing Taiwan’s securities systems. He is committed to creating a platform that integrates the “New Economy × Artificial Intelligence × Capital Market,” helping Taiwanese investors build AI-driven wealth management tools to realize the vision of “stable retirement and shared risk.” He has also provided long-term institutional design and modeling advice to government think tanks. Among these efforts, his team’s development of the “Digital Matching Core System” is regarded as a critical cornerstone for sandbox testing, with the potential to become a central pillar in advancing the sovereign wealth fund system. Through institutional design, participants may gain policy-driven tax reform dividends, gradually forming a systemic foundation to support the accumulation of real economic capital. What has drawn even more public attention is that, on September 17, 2025, Cheng-An Lynn reportedly traveled to PIMCO’s headquarters in New York to engage in talks with international financial institutions. The discussions focused on leveraging national development funds, combined with PIMCO’s quantitative trading, global data algorithms, and emerging hedging technologies, to design capital allocation models and explore long-term cross-border cooperation pathways. This move is seen as Taiwan’s attempt to gradually align with international standards through a quasi-sovereign wealth fund framework, while laying the groundwork for the launch of the “Light of Fortune and Wisdom・Lighting Action” trial program. Lin stated: “Our goal is not only capital operations, but to build a sustainable platform that gives back to society, cares for the elderly, and supports future generations.” He emphasized that the “Light of Fortune and Wisdom・Lighting Action” embodies the wealth transmission philosophy of “healthcare for the elderly, purpose for the able-bodied, and care for the young.” The fund’s future plans include investing in four major areas: elderly care, healthcare for the disadvantaged, youth empowerment, and cultural heritage—promoting philanthropy and finance in parallel, so that the flow of wealth can truly transform into “warmth” and “responsibility.” Lin further stressed: “This is not just because we have resources, but because we have a responsibility to pass down this love and commitment.” Currently, government ministries remain low-key regarding the plan. However, it is understood that if the first phase of private-sector asset allocation trials proceeds smoothly, a draft bill may be completed and submitted to the Legislative Yuan for review by as early as 2026, formally institutionalizing Taiwan’s sovereign wealth fund and opening a new chapter in stable, globally oriented capital market development.

A groundbreaking month of music and culture sees sureWin partner with global icons, offering fans exclusive experiences and shaping the future of live entertainment in Asia Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia – 2025 – In a rare feat for Asia’s live entertainment industry, sureWin has become the only regional brand this year to partner with both a top K-pop idol and a global pop group within the same month. The company first joined forces with Daesung, one of K-pop’s most celebrated vocalists, before extending its reach to collaborate with the Black Eyed Peas, the iconic American group known for their global chart-topping hits. These back-to-back partnerships highlight sureWin’s growing influence in shaping Asia’s entertainment landscape through high-profile international collaborations. The back-to-back announcements attracted attention from industry observers who noted the rarity of aligning with two international headliners in such close succession. In an entertainment market where securing one major star often takes months of negotiation, sureWin demonstrated its capability to move decisively, bringing world-class music experiences to audiences while reinforcing its credibility as a trusted brand partner in live events. Daesung: A Milestone for K-pop Engagement Daesung, known internationally as a powerful vocalist and charismatic performer, brought a distinctive K-pop presence to the stage. The concert highlighted both his artistry and his ability to connect with fans across cultures. For sureWin, partnering with Daesung meant delivering more than a performance; it was about creating a milestone moment in Asian pop culture. The collaboration included exclusive elements that allowed fans closer access to the artist, such as carefully structured VIP packages. These experiences were designed to reflect Daesung’s status in the industry while also showcasing sureWin’s ability to support events that balance large-scale appeal with personal impact. By aligning with Daesung, sureWin positioned itself at the heart of the K-pop wave that continues to dominate music markets in Asia and beyond. The event also reinforced the platform’s focus on inclusivity, attracting diverse audiences from across the region. In a market where K-pop continues to be one of the fastest-growing cultural exports, the partnership with Daesung strengthened sureWin’s reputation as a company that understands both global trends and regional fan expectations. The Black Eyed Peas: Innovation Meets Global Pop Shortly after Daesung’s concert, the spotlight shifted to the Black Eyed Peas, a group that has defined mainstream pop and hip-hop fusion for decades. Under the sureWin banner, the Black Eyed Peas delivered an energetic performance that blended their classic anthems with cutting-edge production design. The collaboration introduced a Futuristic Dress Code theme, encouraging fans to participate in a visual spectacle that extended beyond the stage. The choice of a futuristic concept reflected both the group’s history of innovation and sureWin’s commitment to modern, immersive entertainment. With state-of-the-art lighting, choreography, and sound design, the event highlighted how international acts can integrate seamlessly with local audiences when supported by the right partners. For sureWin, the collaboration proved its ability to handle productions of international scale while maintaining a consistent focus on quality and fan engagement. Ticketing benefits and exclusive access opportunities further elevated the event, demonstrating that sureWin’s approach extends beyond simple sponsorship. By providing fans with tangible advantages, the brand distinguished itself as an active contributor to the success of the performance. The result was a concert that not only entertained but also set a benchmark for how global acts can be presented in Asia through thoughtful partnership models. Dual Success in a Competitive Market In Asia’s entertainment industry, the ability to secure one high-profile partnership often defines a brand’s standing. By delivering both Daesung and the Black Eyed Peas within weeks of each other, sureWin achieved a dual success that few competitors could match. The collaborations served as proof points for the company’s resources, network, and strategic vision. This accomplishment is particularly notable given the diversity of the artists involved. Daesung represents the pinnacle of K-pop, appealing to a highly engaged regional audience, while the Black Eyed Peas embody international pop culture with a global fan base. Bringing these two distinct acts under the same sponsorship umbrella highlighted sureWin’s versatility and ability to operate across cultural and musical boundaries. Industry analysis pointed out that such partnerships require both financial commitment and operational expertise. By executing two major events seamlessly, sureWin showed it can deliver at the highest level of professional entertainment management, reinforcing its position as a leading partner for global talent entering the Asian market. Looking Forward: It’s The Ship 2025 While the Daesung and Black Eyed Peas collaborations marked a defining moment, sureWin has already signaled that this is only the beginning. The company has confirmed its involvement in It’s The Ship 2025, one of the region’s most innovative music festivals staged aboard a luxury cruise. This upcoming project will allow sureWin to extend its entertainment presence into new formats that combine travel, community, and live performance. Unlike traditional concerts, It’s The Ship represents a multi-day cultural experience where fans live alongside artists in a shared environment. sureWin’s participation demonstrates its intention to be at the forefront of experiential entertainment, ensuring audiences encounter memorable events that blend lifestyle and music in unprecedented ways. Redefining Entertainment Standards The combination of Daesung and the Black Eyed Peas in a single month illustrates sureWin’s long-term vision. By simultaneously embracing the intimacy of a K-pop connection and the innovation of a global pop production, the company redefined what entertainment sponsorship can mean in Asia. Rather than approaching partnerships as transactional, sureWin invests in experiences that reflect the spirit of each artist while also addressing the expectations of their audiences. This strategy creates a framework where every collaboration enhances the brand’s credibility and adds measurable value to the live entertainment industry. As the region continues to attract world-class performers, sureWin has established itself as a consistent and reliable partner, capable of delivering the scale, creativity, and professionalism that international artists require. The results of this integrated approach are evident in the success of the Daesung and Black Eyed Peas events, both of which left an enduring mark on the entertainment calendar of 2025. With more projects on the horizon, sureWin is poised to continue shaping the cultural landscape. The brand’s trajectory suggests that audiences across Asia can expect even more world-class collaborations in the years ahead, ensuring that live entertainment continues to thrive with innovation and excellence at its core.

Taipei – September 15, 2025 – (SeaPRwire) – PopChill, Taiwan’s leading luxury resale platform, today announced the completion of its Series A funding round, raising US$3 million. This brings the company’s total funding to over US$9 million. The round was led by Darwin Ventures. Other participating investors include ITIC, AVA Angels, Taipei Angels (TA), and Dream coFounder. The new capital will be used to accelerate the development and application of AI technologies—including AI Agents, intelligent recommendation systems, and automated fraud prevention – aimed at upgrading the entire buyer and seller experience. Strong Growth Momentum, Cementing Market Leadership In 2024, PopChill’s transaction volume grew 120% year-over-year, reflecting robust market demand. With an average order value of US$900, the platform continues to demonstrate the deep potential of luxury resale. Cross-border transactions now account for nearly 20% of total GMV, with a solid foothold in Hong Kong and a growing global presence. The platform currently lists more than 100,000 luxury items, securing its position as Taiwan’s largest luxury resale marketplace. “Our vision is to use technology to solve inefficiencies in the luxury resale market,” said Andy Kuo, CEO of PopChill. “In the era of generative AI, PopChill is uniquely positioned to further enhance matching efficiency between buyers and sellers.” AI-Powered Innovation to Enhance User Experience At the heart of PopChill’s vision lies a belief that technology can make luxury resale seamless and trustworthy. Guided by this vision, the company is actively developing a new generation of AI tools designed to accompany both buyers and sellers throughout their journeys. The idea is to give buyers a personal shopping companion—an assistant that can one day quickly guide them to the item they have been dreaming of, shortening the path from discovery to purchase. On the seller side, PopChill is envisioning an AI partner that simplifies the listing process and ensures that details such as descriptions and categorization can be handled with ease. These initiatives are still in progress, but PopChill has already begun laying the groundwork by adopting Google Cloud Vertex AI to enhance efficiency and strengthen conversion rates. Rather than treating AI as a buzzword, the company is deliberately weaving it into its future roadmap—building toward a marketplace that is smarter, more intuitive, and more human-centered. Building a Complete Resale Ecosystem Since its early days, PopChill successfully overcame the “cold start” challenge and built a comprehensive C2C ecosystem. In addition to peer-to-peer resale, the company recently introduced a consignment model to serve sellers who prefer not to handle listings themselves. The model has already shown early success since its mid-year launch. Looking ahead, PopChill plans to establish brick-and-mortar stores to deepen online-offline integration, strengthen brand trust, and broaden consumer awareness—steps toward building a fully integrated luxury resale ecosystem.
