- The inaugural Hong Kong Shopping Festival, organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), concluded successfully in August with total impressions exceeding 90 million on e-commerce discussion forums and official website- The festival helped local SMEs increase brand awareness and gain practical experience in expanding into the mainland market via e-commerce. Hong Kong companies received numerous enquiries and orders from potential customers during the event- The event collaborated with more than 30 renowned mainland KOLs on three major e-commerce platforms, with live-streaming e-commerce promotions for more than 60 Hong Kong brands, demonstrating mainland consumers’ strong confidence in the city’s goods- The HKTDC is actively preparing for the next edition of the Hong Kong Shopping Festival to help more local SMEs enter the mainland e-commerce marketHONG KONG, Sept 9, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - The Hong Kong Shopping Festival, organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) and fully supported by the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), concluded successfully in late August, helping local small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) increase brand awareness and gain practical experience in expanding into the mainland market via e-commerce channels. The event received an enthusiastic response, with more than 90 million impressions on e-commerce discussion forums and official website.Algernon Yau, Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development of the HKSAR Government, said: "The global e-commerce market continues to grow rapidly. In particular, the mainland has been the leading online retail market for 11 consecutive years, becoming an engine of growth for Hong Kong SMEs to expand their businesses. The HKSAR Government put forward a number of initiatives in the 2023 Policy Address to encourage and assist local SMEs in developing e-commerce businesses and seizing market opportunities. We are delighted that the inaugural Hong Kong Shopping Festival was well received and gained the robust support of local businesses, motivating more SMEs to participate in e-commerce businesses. The Government will continue to support SMEs through various measures, including the SME Export Marketing Fund and ‘E-commerce Easy’, so as to encourage SMEs to upgrade and restructure their operations and develop e-commerce businesses, thereby promoting the development of new quality productive forces.”Stephen Liang, Assistant Executive Director of the HKTDC, said: “The inaugural Hong Kong Shopping Festival has concluded after a successful one-month run, providing local SMEs with a practical platform to master the art of e-commerce. The event has also significantly enhanced SMEs’ brand awareness, building a solid foundation for their future development in the mainland e-commerce market. Following the event, many SMEs have expressed interest in participating in future Hong Kong Shopping Festivals, demonstrating their strong interest in the e-commerce sector and willingness to tap into the enormous potential of the mainland market. This positive response has given us the impetus to organise the event again next year.”Throughout August, the HKTDC, led by Paul Chan, Financial Secretary of the HKSAR Government, collaborated with celebrities and influencers to promote the Hong Kong Shopping Festival through various strategically planned digital marketing channels, including Xiaohongshu, Douyin, Taobao, JD and others, boosting visits to the official website and, in turn, to the SMEs’ own online stores.Understanding live-streaming and other techniques in mainland marketDuring the festival, several SMEs kickstarted live-streaming e-commerce in the mainland market, including Markwill Solutions Limited, the exclusive distributor of Gold Energy Snail Synergy, a Korean skincare and cosmetic brand, in Hong Kong. The company applied to run promotions on JD as the starting point. “The procedures were slightly complex, but luckily the HKTDC was on hand to help,” said Markwill Solutions Manager Man Leung.As a beginner in the mainland e-commerce field, Mr Leung watched numerous live-streaming sessions to explore the broadcast style of KOLs, learn the industry jargon and understand the discount strategies in the mainland market. He found out that while the popular term in Hong Kong is “buy 2 get 1 free”, the mainland market uses terms such as “expected paid price”, which was completely new to him. He also became aware that a key factor in driving sales of skincare and cosmetic products is the location of consumers.“The weather in the southern, middle and northern regions [of Mainland China] is different, as is the people’s need for cosmetics,” Mr Leung said. He also noticed that the KOLs who partnered with the brand were all from the northern regions, while customers were mainly from the northern and central regions. This made him realise the importance of the company conducting more research into how regional and seasonal factors could influence the shopping desires of customers.Cross International Limited runs First Edible Nest, which sells dried seafood. The company had already begun exploring e-commerce, hiring KOLs to conduct live-streaming sessions in the mainland market since the pandemic in 2020. However, owing to its limited budget, the company found it hard to invite renowned KOLs to work with them. “This time, the HKTDC was able to connect us with top-tier KOLs,” said Manager Eddy Lo. During the festival period, six live-streaming sessions on Tmall and Douyin were conducted. “Two of the sessions on Tmall were excellent, generating RMB300,000 in revenue. I was pleased with the sales figures.” Kiu Fung Hong Limited, which sells food products such as potato chips, also achieved encouraging sales figures during the Hong Kong Shopping Festival. CEO Ellis Wong said the company had been selling its products on JD. When it came to the Hong Kong Shopping Festival in August, “comparing our average monthly orders from January to July, the August orders soared by 135 times,” he said. This demonstrates the effectiveness of the promotions run during the festival and Mr Wong said he hoped the event could be held regularly to continue the momentum. He encouraged other SMEs to participate in the next Hong Kong Shopping Festival to gain experience in how to develop the mainland market via e-commerce channels.Promotion boost online impressions, influencers showcase Hong KongThe Hong Kong Shopping Festival promoted online-offline integration with 10 million impressions on the Xiaohongshu platform. The Hong Kong Shopping Festival partnered with a diverse group of celebrities and influencers for engaging promotional activities, with the likes of Moses Chan, Grace Chan, Kenneth Ma and Hu Ke adding vibrancy to the event. In addition, more than 30 renowned mainland KOLs, including Li Jiaqi and Chen Jie Kiki, conducted over 30 live-streaming e-commerce sessions on three major platforms, endorsing over 60 brands by planting seeds to boost brand awareness. Influencers also showcased Hong Kong's cultural customs, distinctive foods and urban landscapes through offline city walks, drawing significant interest and generating discussions. Food and health supplement products garnered particular attention during the promotional campaign, reflecting the strong confidence of mainland consumers in the reputation and quality assurance of Hong Kong goods.The Hong Kong Shopping Festival aligns with a measure in the 2023 Policy Address to assist Hong Kong's SMEs in expanding into the Mainland China market via e-commerce channels with the slogan “Unveiling a New Lifestyle, Curated by Hong Kong". “Unveiling a New Lifestyle” refers to launching new products in the market and the aspiration to enrich people's lives through these products. “Curated by Hong Kong”, meanwhile, reflects the meticulously selected quality products from Hong Kong that are being made available to mainland consumers.The first Hong Kong Shopping Festival gathered more than 230 brands, showcasing 500 products and exclusive discounts in six major categories: apparel and accessories, personal care and cosmetics, home and living, classic food, smart gadgets and health supplements. The event not only helped Hong Kong’s SMEs leverage the customer base and traffic on mainland e-commerce platforms and increase brand awareness, but also helped them gain practical experience in how to expand into the huge mainland e-commerce market.Hong Kong Shopping Festival Website: https://bit.ly/4fR29clPhoto download: https://bit.ly/4dUZvBdThe Hong Kong Shopping Festival invited renowned Mainland China KOLs to host live-streaming e-commerce sessions, resulting in a very enthusiastic response.The inaugural Hong Kong Shopping Festival, organised by the HKTDC, achieved total impressions of more than 90 million on e-commerce discussion forums and official website.HKSAR Financial Secretary Paul Chan showed his support in a promotional video to promote the Hong Kong Shopping Festival.

Recently we have attracted four industry partners and unlocked up to A$60m of multi-year funding.We are very pleased to have opportunistically secured three bolt-on new projects covering 1,377km2 with clear scale potential and strategic value, now providing Kincora a continuous north-south strike extent of over 100km in the NJNB.This new ground is adjacent to and on the interpreted extensions of the Nyngan and Nevertire projects where maiden partner funded ground geophysical surveys are already ongoing with Fleet Space, and maiden drilling activities are shortly ramping up in partnership with and funded by AngloGold Ashanti at Nyngan.The Company and our existing partners are very excited to commence the first ever copper-gold exploration across potentially the largest volcano-intrusive complex of the Macquarie Arc at northern Nyngan, which offers new district scale potential.Kincora continues to build and advance our project pipeline, exploring further partnerships. In particular, securing the advanced and highly prospective Nevertire South ground in our view significantly enhances our Nevertire project and NJNB portfolio."New wholly owned projects Pegged as open ground, Kincora has been awarded new exploration licenses covering a total of 1,377km2 (100% ownership) including the Nyngan West, Nyngan South and Nevertire South projects - see Figures 1 to 3.The new licenses are opportunistic new bolt-on projects with clear scale and value path, doubling Kincora's land position in the NBJB. The NBJB is one of the two major volcanic belts of the Macquarie Arc, where regional magnetics has proven to be effective in mapping the key belts and major intrusive complexes.The new licenses provide Kincora a continuous north-south strike extent of over 100km in the interpreted shallow to moderate depth sections of the under cover extension of the Macquarie Arc. The new licenses also consolidate the extensions of intrusive complex targets included in the existing earn-in partnership with AngloGold Ashanti.Regional geophysics strongly indicates that Kincora's Nyngan license has the potential to host the largest volcano-intrusive complex of the Macquarie Arc, which is currently almost untested with drilling to commence within the month in partnership with AngloGold Ashanti.Kincora's portfolio and the wider NJNB offers new district-scale discovery potential with spatial and temporal settings, coupled with magnetics, gravity and new ANT surveys, supportive of large-scale targets analogous to porphyry deposits located in the southern section of the Macquarie Arc which host an existing >160Moz gold equivalent endowment (see Figure 2) 1.To help emphasis the true new district scale potential of the Company's NJNB portfolio, the total AngloGold Ashanti earn-in and Kincora wholly owned project portfolio now covers a strike length that is twice that of the rapidly emerging Vicuña porphyry district (see Figure 2).Within the Vicuña district, NGEx Resources Inc in 2009 held three early-stage exploration projects that, at the time, supported a market capitalisation of approximately C$40 million 2. These same projects are all still at a pre-development phase but have yielded four large-scale discoveries currently valued at over C$8.5 billion after the corporate transactions involving BHP and Lundin Mining last month 2, 3.Of particular note, the new Nevertire South project (962km2) is considered highly prospective and consolidates the ~8 x 12km Nevertire Magmatic Complex, the northern third held in Kincora's existing partnership with AngloGold Ashanti (see the insert in Figure 2).Prior explorer drilling at the southern section of the Nevertire Magmatic Complex (within the Nevertire South project) has returned anomalous copper-gold mineralisation, favourable fertility defined by green rock analysis, geochemical zonation and alteration suggestive of an outer porphyry system setting with age dates confirming a highly prospective Phase 4 Macquarie Arc intrusive complex (at approximately 220m depth down hole). This supports Nevertire South being the most advanced porphyry project within the NJNB district (see Figure 4), situated under potentially only 100 metres of cover and enhancing the value of the adjacent Nevertire project.Kincora has recently secured three prior exploration drill holes from the Nevertire South project with relogging planned as discussions with potential technical and funding partners progress.About the NJNB Project PortfolioThe Macquarie Arc is Australia's premier porphyry copper-gold province and the undercover extensions of the Arc are a globally significant exploration opportunity offering new district(s) scale discovery potential. The region has recently attracted five major earn-in/option and joint venture agreements supporting potentially over $300 million in exploration and development expenditure, including the recent option and joint venture agreements between Gold Fields and privately owned Gold & Copper Resources 4.The most recent notable example of a new emerging globally significant porphyry district is the Vicuña district in the central Andes in Argentina on the border of Chile, which is largely consolidated by Lundin group entities and BHP and situated at over 4000m altitude. Within this district NGEx Resources Inc in 2009 held three early stage exploration projects and at the time had a market capitalisation of approximately C$40 million. These same projects are all still at a pre-development phase but have yielded in four large-scale discoveries currently valued at over C$8.5 billion (see Figure 2).Regional geophysics strongly indicates that the largest sections of the Macquarie Arc still remain untested under post mineral cover within the NJNB. Kincora was the early entrant securing a district scale position in the interpreted shallow to moderate covered core sections of this region by pegging Nyngan and Nevertire (covering now 939 km2).Post securing AngloGold Ashanti as a partner for the Nyngan and Nevertire projects, Kincora has opportunistically secured (on a 100% ownership basis) the Nyngan West, Nyngan South and Nevertire South projects (covering 1,377 km2) which are viewed as hosting shallow to moderate covered sections of the targeted Macquarie Arc and the extensions of intrusive complex targets included in the existing earn-in partnership with AngloGold Ashanti.Kincora seeks to continue to systematically advance its project pipeline within the under cover extension of the Macquarie Arc and bring in funding and technical partners.About the AngloGold Ashanti PartnershipKincora has an initial multiple-phase Earn-in and Joint Venture Agreement with AngloGold Ashanti for the Nyngan and Nevertire licenses 5.AngloGold has the right to spend up to A$50 million to earn a 80% interest through:A$25 million of exploration expenditure to earn a 70% joint venture interest (Phase I) including a minimum A$2 million expenditure obligation, with Kincora the initial operator for a 10% management fee.Completion of a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) or funding of a further $25 million of expenditure to earn a 80% joint venture interest (Phase II).Under the agreement a wide range of untested large intrusive-related copper-gold targets will be drill tested seeking to confirm the potential for a new district of copper-gold porphyry system complexes.AngloGold Ashanti is the world's fourth largest gold miner by production with a successful track record for new Greenfield discovery success. Within the Macquarie Arc, AngloGold Ashanti has secured Earn-in and Joint Venture Agreements with both Kincora and Inflection Resources (Inflection, ticker "AUCU.CSE") covering greater than 8,000km2 in the NJNB.Subject to permitting, access and weather conditions Kincora and AngloGold Ashanti's first drilling program is anticipated to commence within the month. The program seeks to test new district-scale potential with up to eight large intrusive complex targets to be drill-tested for the first time in this initial first phase program. Approximately 6 to 8 drill holes for an estimated 4000-5000 metres are budgeted to be complete before the summer break 6.Figure 1: The new Nyngan West, Nyngan South and Nevertire South projects are adjacent to and the interpreted extensions of the Nyngan and Nevertire projects where maiden partner funded ground geophysical surveys are already on-going with Fleet Space and maiden drilling activities are shortly ramping up in partnership with and funded by the AngloGold Ashanti earn-in agreement for the Nyngan projectKincora continues to secure the best ground, do deals and drill, testing targets that offer Tier-1 copper-gold scale potentialRecently in the district there have been earn-in/option and joint venture agreements focused on porphyry exploration by AngloGold Ashanti (with Kincora and Inflection Resources), Gold Fields (with Gold & Copper), FMG (with Magmatic) and S2 Resources (with Legacy Minerals) supporting potentially over $300 million in exploration expenditureTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/222613_aac1627684c97809_001full.jpgFigure 2: Kincora's portfolio in the Northern Junee-Narromine Belt (including in partnership AngloGold Ashanti and Kincora wholly owned ground) now covers a continuous strike of over 100km, twice that of the rapidly emerging Vicuña porphyry districtKincora and its partners are seeking to confirm new district scale potential of the under cover extensions of the Macquarie Arc, which in the out/sub-cropping sections of the Arc host multiple world-class mines and a metal endowment of over 160M oz gold equivalentTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/222613_aac1627684c97809_002full.jpgFigure 3: Kincora has recently secure three prior explorer drill holes for the Nevertire South project with relogging planned as discussions with potential technical and funding partners progressKincora has recently obtained from the Cadia mine site diamond core farm three prior Newcrest drill holes, one of which confirms a highly prospective Phase 4 Macquarie Arc intrusive complex.

These surveys commenced in early August, are ongoing and progressing well.The initial ANT survey is planned to cover an area of approximately 35 km2 across the northern Nyngan license area with a proposed infill area of approximately 9 km2. Similar to other Fleet Space surveys in the district, the ANT velocity model is anticipated to image down to 1900m depth with the ground gravity surveys to provide the first cover-corrected gravity dataset in the area.The rapid turnaround from completion of the surveys to interpretation of results is enabled by the real-time ANT data acquisition capabilities of Fleet Space's end-to-end mineral exploration solution, ExoSphere. Utilising Fleet Space's proprietary satellite constellation, ExoSphere's smart seismic sensors (Geodes) transmit high-quality 3D ANT data from the project to the satellites which is then processed into actionable insights in real-time.

SEOUL, S.KOREA, Sept 9, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - The Asia Video Industry Association (AVIA), in partnership with the Korean Creative Content Agency (KOCCA), held Korea in View @BCWW on 29 August to much success, hosting over 300 delegates at COEX, as part of the 3-day global broadcasting content convention.The conference opened with a special welcome address by Eun Young Kang, Director of the Broadcast & Advertisement Policy Division, Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, before going deep into insights on the next chapter of the Korean content boom and how the industry could emerge from this “correction period”.For Marianne Lee, Chief of Content Acquisition and Development, Viu, the correction period was driven by the increase in production costs which had jumped four-fold in the last decade, and it was crucial for the industry to work collectively to optimize monetization and keep pace with costs in order to recover as quickly as possible.Hyun Park, CEO, Alquimista Media, was confident that if Korea and the broader Asia region produced great content, it could fill a void in the streaming world that was not being supplied by the US due the events that had occurred over the last years, including the pandemic and the Hollywood strikes.“Streaming has democratized content in a significant way, and viewers are voting for Asian content, with 14b hours of Asian content consumed globally in 2023,” said Vivek Couto, Managing and Executive Director, Media Partners Asia. Asian titles also drove 80% of premium video engagement and acquisition in APAC, with Korean content particularly significant in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, driving over 30% of viewership and contributing up to 30% in viewer acquisition.Couto also added that Korea was just in the “second innings” in the streaming industry, with the pace of change far more significant in the advertising space. And in a market like Korea, with most consumers having 2 – 3 subscriptions per household, there was an opportunity to replicate the pay TV bundle and grow the pie through that.Discussing the resilience of linear TV, Ana Bautista, Head of Strategy – Asia, BBC Studios, also said that establishing connections, relationships and deeper partnerships to understand each other’s needs and where the market was headed was key, particularly in Asia and Korea. While Changhoon Lee, Head of Media & Content Business Unit, SK Broadband, opined that the lack of personalization was a key issue the industry was facing from the IPTV perspective, but this offered an opportunity to transform into an AI media platform which would make it more competitive against the streaming giants.The significant growth of streaming has not, however, seen a corresponding increase in advertising revenue. “Measurement is the underpinning currency and determines where the dollars will go, “said Chris Mottershead, Commercial Director - JAPAC, Publica. But with various constituents having differing objectives and levels of data all held within their own walled gardens, it remained a problem for the industry. On a more optimistic note, Mottershead added “We are starting to see a closing of the loop,” with a unifying of data across the viewing journey, from linear TV to IP and streaming.Korea in View is proudly sponsored by Lead Sponsor Cultural and Creative Industries Development Agency; Gold Sponsors Publica and TV5Monde; Silver Sponsor Invidi and Official Partner Korean Creative Content Agency (KOCCA).Visit the media gallery for photos from the event.About the Asia Video Industry AssociationThe Asia Video Industry Association (AVIA) is the trade association for the video industry and ecosystem in Asia Pacific.

MALANG, E. JAVA, Indonesia, Sept 9, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - An expert from the Faculty of Agriculture of Brawijaya University, Prof Arifin, has developed hybrid corn seeds for animal feed that have a higher yield and faster harvest cycle.Prof. Arifin, an agriculture specialist at Brawijaya University, has developed hybrid field corn seeds called 'Jagung Brawijaya Nusa.' (ANTARA/HO-Public relations, Brawijaya University)"If the average corn productivity is only 9 tons per hectare, using Brawijaya Nusa corn seeds could lead to a productivity increase of over 30 percent," Arifin explained to the media on Friday. Two types of hybrid seeds, namely Nusa 1 and Nusa 3, have been developed as part of the innovation. Both have higher productivity compared to regular corn seeds."Brawijaya Nusa corn seeds can produce up to 12.9 tons (of corn) per hectare and 13.7 tons per hectare compared to corn seeds in general, which are only 9 tons per hectare," he said. Initially, five types of seeds were proposed, but only two passed the release test by the Ministry of Agriculture. The seeds were found suitable for dry land areas, such as in NTT, particularly Sumba and Timor."NTT has the potential for growing corn, but its current productivity is significantly low. To meet the national average of 5.8 to 5.9 tons per hectare in the next few years, productivity is needed as it currently stands at only 2.3 tons per hectare.," he pointed out. Therefore, the innovative technology from the Maize Research Center (MRC) is expected to boost the national production of corn for animal feed.The development of hybrid seeds commenced in 2022 in NTT. Following this, Arifin and his team implemented the technology for seed production and cultivation among the local farmers. This year, the farmers started to see added value from the field corn seeds.Arifin emphasized the importance of partnering with the private sector to ensure the successful management of business operations involving seeds, varieties, and technology developed by the university. He highlighted the need to engage farmers in this collaboration for effective management.He added that the corn developed in NTT is a sweet and glutinous type of field corn. "We refer to it as field corn because 70 percent of it is used for cattle feed, but that doesn't mean it's unsuitable for human consumption. Similar to people in Africa, Indonesians rely on corn as a staple food, particularly in Madura and the eastern regions of the country," he explained.For more information, please click: https://ub.ac.idr Brawijaya University: https://prasetya.ub.ac.id Editor: A Malik Ibrahim, Copyright (c) ANTARA 2024 Copyright 2024 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
