New ‘Market Disruption’ Theme at SBC Summit Malta to Explore Global Regulatory Changes

(AsiaGameHub) -   SBC Summit Malta has introduced a specialized "Market Disruption" track scheduled for April 29, which will analyze worldwide regulatory changes, offering expert perspectives on the moves toward licensing in Italy, Germany, and Finland. Press release.- The global gaming sector is undergoing a major transformation, marked by Italy's comprehensive licensing reforms, stricter rules in the UK, and the opening of new markets such as Finland. To assist operators in managing this changing environment, SBC Summit Malta is introducing a focused "Market Disruption" track that centers on the regulatory developments and new prospects influencing the industry's future expansion. Happening on Wednesday, April 29, the event will convene local specialists to assess the most significant regulatory changes in international gaming and their consequences for operators, covering everything from strategies for entering new markets to ensuring long-term financial health. The track will commence with the session Italy Reset: Consolidation, Control and the Next Licensing Cycle, which will analyze the consequences of Italy's updated licensing system. Industry specialists Marco Tiso (managing director, Sisal), Quirino Mancini (partner and director, WH Italy), Luca Grisci (managing director, HBG Online (Novomatic Group)), and Nicola Tani (chief editor, Agipro) will discuss the primary obstacles for new market entrants, including financial effects, regulatory adjustments, and the hurdles presented by the new system. “UK in Transition: Regulation, Retreat and the Fight for a Sustainable Market” will analyze how heightened regulation and increasing expenses are transforming the UK gambling sector. Christopher Dalli (CEO, L&L Europe) will investigate operator responses, ranging from reducing costs to altering affiliate relationships, while also addressing the expansion of the black market and questioning if stricter regulations are safeguarding players or diverting them to unregulated options. An important feature of the track will highlight Malta's changing tax policies with “New VAT Laws on Gambling and Betting, a Game Changer.” Scheduled for implementation on 1 October 2026, the new VAT rules are anticipated to greatly influence business structures for operators. This discussion will look into the reasons for the change, the advantages for the gambling sector, and the necessary preparations for operators based in Malta, with contributions from Nico Sciberras (director Indirect Tax, MTCA), Cristian Edu (head of finance, Superbet Romania), and Ramona Cassar (partner, Head of Tax, WH Partners). “Germany at a Crossroads: Regulation and Market Sustainability” will address the issues confronting one of Europe's biggest gambling markets. Given the growth in black market operations, continuous discussions on channelisation, and greater examination of the equilibrium between tax and player safety, the session will assess the viability of Germany's existing regulatory framework, led by Dr. Fabian Masurat (lawyer, Taylor Wessing). “The Dutch Market at a Crossroads: Regulation, Politics and the Future of Licensing” will investigate how political instability and stricter controls are influencing the gambling scene in the Netherlands. With debates about advertising prohibitions and licensing caps, the session will consider if more regulation might lead to market consolidation or cause operators to exit, featuring analysis from Frank op de Woerd (CEO & founder, CasinoNieuws.nl). “Finland’s Big Gamble: Can Regulation Win Back the Market?” will concentrate on the nation's shift from a state-controlled monopoly to a licensed system by 2027. As channelisation drops and substantial earnings go to offshore operators, the discussion will assess if the suggested regulatory model can successfully challenge the black market, with input from Sam Brown (CEO, Rootz). Concluding the track, “Emerging Markets: The Next Billion Dollar Battleground” will identify the locations where the industry's upcoming growth prospects are emerging, as focus moves from established markets to areas in Africa, the UAE, Asia, and Latin America. Since regulatory frameworks are still developing in many of these regions, the session will investigate where operators can gain a first-mover advantage, which areas are nearing regulation, and which players are most likely to thrive, with insights from Donna Bugelli (managing associate, WH Partners). SBC Summit Malta is set to occur at the InterContinental Malta from April 28–30, uniting 6,000 industry professionals to discuss the main factors affecting global gaming, including regulatory evolution, technological advances, and changing consumer demands. In addition to the Market Disruption track, participants will receive knowledge on marketing, sports betting and igaming, operations and compliance, policy and PR, affiliation, and leadership.

橡胶子弹造成伤亡,千名动物福利活动人士冲击威斯康星州的比格犬繁殖实验室

(SeaPRwire) -   周六,约1000名动物福利活动人士试图进入威斯康星州的一个比格犬繁育和研究设施,但被警方驱回。警方向人群发射了橡胶子弹和胡椒喷雾,并逮捕了该组织的领导人。 这是抗议者两个月内第二次试图从位于首府麦迪逊西南约25英里(约40公里)的小镇蓝山的 Ridglan Farms 设施带走比格犬。 戴恩县警长卡尔文·巴雷特在一份视频声明中表示,300至400名抗议者正“试图暴力闯入该房产”并袭击警员。他说,抗议者无视了指定的和平抗议区域,并封锁道路以阻止紧急车辆进入。 “这不是和平抗议,”巴雷特说。 警长办公室表示,在现场约1000名抗议者中,有“相当数量”的人被逮捕,但由于截至下午仍在处理中,因此没有给出确切总数。 抗议者试图突破包括充满肥料的沟壕、干草捆和带刺铁丝网在内的路障。据《威斯康星州日报》报道,一些抗议者确实穿过了围栏,但无法进入该设施,那里饲养着估计2000只比格犬。 “我只是感到挫败,”活动人士朱莉·弗尔泽斯基在行动开始约三小时后且没有成功救出任何狗的情况下告诉该报纸。 随后,活动人士从 Ridglan 设施转移到麦迪逊市中心的监狱外进行抗议。 “拯救 Ridglan 狗狗联盟”小组曾公开计划在周日夺取这些狗,但提前一天启动了行动。该组织领导人 Wayne Hsiung 的 X 账号发布了一张他被逮捕的照片。 警长办公室表示,一名“鲁莽”驾驶皮卡车冲过该房产前门的人被逮捕,“阻止了可能发生的致命后果”。 抗议者曾在3月闯入该设施并带走了30只狗。27人因非法侵入和其他指控被捕。 Ridglan 否认虐待动物,但在10月同意作为避免因动物虐待指控被起诉的协议的一部分,于7月1日放弃其州繁育许可证。 其网站上称,“从未提出或证实关于 Ridglan Farms 存在动物虐待、残忍、虐待或忽视的可信证据。”本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

以色列公布地图显示停火期间在黎巴嫩持续驻军

(SeaPRwire) -   以色列国防军(IDF)表明,尽管有撤军呼吁,该国仍打算留在这个邻国 以色列军方发布了一张地图,勾勒出其所谓黎巴嫩南部的“前沿防御线”,尽管停火声明发布后各方呼吁全面撤军。 这张地图显示了一条越过边境数公里的新部署线,涵盖了数十个大多已被遗弃的村庄,此时以黎与真主党(Hezbollah)的停火已生效数日。 4月14日双方举行了数十年来首次直接会谈后,以色列和黎巴嫩于周四同意由美国斡旋达成为期10天的停火协议,以结束以色列军队与真主党在黎巴嫩南部持续一个多月的冲突。该协议旨在助力美伊之间更广泛的外交进程,不过以色列军队仍将部署在黎巴嫩南部部分地区。 地图上显示的部署线从东到西横跨黎巴嫩境内距边境约5至10公里的区域,以色列称计划在此建立缓冲区。 以色列国防军在一份声明中勾勒出其所谓的“前沿防御线”,其部队正在黎巴嫩南部该区域行动,但未说明该区域的范围。 以色列军队摧毁了该区域的村庄,称此举旨在防止以色列北部社区遭遇“直接威胁”。以方表示,目前有5个师及海军部队在该部署线以南行动,以拆除真主党的基础设施,阻止针对以色列北部的袭击。 以色列国防部长以色列·卡茨(Israel Katz)周日表示,真主党使用的边境沿线房屋将被拆除,并补充道:“任何威胁我军士兵的建筑,以及任何疑似被埋设爆炸物的道路,都必须立即摧毁。”他还补充称,以色列国防军已接到命令,在黎巴嫩行动时若遭遇威胁,可使用“全力”应对,即便在停火期间亦是如此。 抵制了华盛顿会谈的真主党已表示有条件支持停火协议,要求全面停止袭击,并最终让以色列撤军。 3月初真主党为支持伊朗发动火箭弹袭击后,以色列对贝鲁特及其他城市发动空袭,并扩大了其所谓的黎巴嫩南部安全区。自此,德黑兰将终止以色列在黎巴嫩的军事行动作为与美国和以色列达成更广泛协议的条件。 据黎巴嫩官员透露,自3月初以来,以色列在黎巴嫩的袭击已造成近2300人死亡、7500多人受伤,超过100万人流离失所。       本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Illinois Gaming Board gives Light & Wonder a new 10-year contract

(AsiaGameHub) -   Light & Wonder has served as the central system provider and operator for the Illinois Gaming Board (IGB) since its inception in 2012. In the US, Light & Wonder has been awarded a new 10-year contract by the Illinois Gaming Board (IGB) following a public competitive bidding process. The company has continuously functioned as the central system provider and operator for the IGB since its launch in 2012. Siobhan Lane, chief executive officer of gaming at Light & Wonder, commented: “This award reflects more than a decade of trusted collaboration with the Illinois Gaming Board and our proven ability to operate one of the most complex regulated gaming systems in the world. Our next-generation Connexus Central System provides the security, scalability, and flexibility required to support Illinois’ market today, while positioning the state for future innovation in responsible gaming and cashless technologies.” Marcus D. Fruchter, administrator of the Illinois Gaming Board, further stated: “The new Central Communication System will further strengthen our existing regulatory oversight and modernise our technological infrastructure. Among other significant enhancements, the new system will enable the IGB’s integration of its Self-Exclusion Program into video gaming and meaningfully advance our commitment to responsible gambling in Illinois.” Earlier in February, the IGB issued cease-and-desist letters to 65 online sweepstakes casinos operating within the state. The regulatory body instructed these operators to promptly prevent Illinois residents from accessing their platforms. Online gambling remains unregulated in Illinois, with legal gambling activities restricted to licensed riverboat casinos, land-based casinos, racetracks sportsbooks, and video gaming establishments.

凯文·沃什已到紧要关头:他该如何着手游说降息?这需要一番复杂的经济巧思

(SeaPRwire) -   明天上午10点,凯文·沃什(Kevin Warsh)领导美联储的公开宣传活动将正式开始。到目前为止,市场、政策制定者和经济学家只能猜测沃什的展望和方法。但本周,自特朗普总统确认他的提名以来,他的想法将首次公开摆在参议院银行委员会面前供其审阅。最令人担忧的问题将是沃什向白宫承诺了什么——如果有的话。Amid concerns over the independence of the central bank (a notion Warsh has repeatedly stated he believes is of the utmost importance), officials will be keen to understand how the would-be chairman will balance his dovish rate sympathies with today’s inflationary economic outlook.特朗普已经明确表示,只有愿意比现任主席杰罗姆·鲍威尔(Jerome Powell)更快降息的人才能获得他的支持。然而,数据显示,降息的论点越来越站不住脚,因为最新的消费者价格指数(CPI)报告显示,由于石油和天然气供应紧张,通胀正在上升。目前通胀率已超过3%,远高于美联储2%的目标。 那么,沃什如何才能在不显得忽视美联储的优先事项而迎合白宫的情况下,为鸽派的基准利率立场辩护呢?一种可能的论点是,要拉开视野。要记住,美联储并非只有双重目标,而是三重目标,并且要全面看待经济状况。 理论上,联邦公开市场委员会设定的短期利率会影响借贷利率:降低利率就是通过降低贷款成本来刺激经济活动——无论是商业投资、消费者支出还是抵押贷款。 实际上,短期利率已经与实体经济的实际利率脱钩。正如摩根士丹利(Morgan Stanley)在10月份观察到的那样,尽管处于降息周期,“抵押贷款利率与新抵押贷款利率之间的利差超过2%,是40年来最高的,这表明可能需要进一步降息来刺激住房活动。” 相比之下,长期收益率(以及因此的利率)在2026年相对较高。这些利率由市场设定,反映了投资者对通胀、增长和政府债务供应的预期。最近,10年期和30年期美国国债收益率均有所走高(但未超过历史正常水平),这表明在抵押贷款、企业借贷和股票估值等实体经济领域,金融条件正在悄然收紧。 如果沃什认为,曲线长端的收紧可以通过短端的降低来抵消,他可以引用一个最近的例子:在美军和以色列袭击伊朗之后,近几个月收紧的程度更加明显。10年期美国国债在2月初约为4%,到3月底飙升至4.44%。30年期国债也同样走高:从2月初的4.63%升至撰写本文时的4.9%。 鉴于长期利率直接影响实体经济,一位鸽派央行行长可能会主张降低基准利率——不是为了直接刺激需求,而是为了防止债券市场本身意外收紧,即使短期降息无法完全抵消曲线后段的收紧。 这个论点也巧妙地与美联储经常被遗忘的第三个使命联系起来。FOMC成员斯蒂芬·米兰(Stephen Miran)在去年接受参议院银行委员会质询时回忆了20世纪70年代的《联邦储备法案》:“国会明智地赋予了美联储追求物价稳定、充分就业和温和长期利率的任务。”如果长期市场的上涨收紧了条件,这本身就构成了一个政策问题,而短期降息的论点可以抵消任何收紧,以保持借贷成本大致稳定。 资产负债表论点 另一个关于资产负债表的经济体操练习来自沃什对资产负债表的看法。沃什希望减少目前价值6.7万亿美元的资产负债表,这恰好为降息提供了一个新的巧妙论据,而不会引起对美联储独立性问题的警报。 正如哥伦比亚大学商学院教授马一鸣(Yiming Ma)在2月份接受采访时解释的那样:“人们常常认为:‘哦,经济状况、通胀预期和失业率决定了利率’,而资产负债表的大小则无关紧要。 “但在实践中,加息是(经济)紧缩,而缩减央行资产负债表的规模也是一种紧缩(因为它也会提高利率)。而且这种相互作用的程度很难估计,但你可以大致认为,如果美联储资产负债表的规模较小,系统中的流动性就会减少,这将减轻通胀压力。所以从某种意义上说,拥有较小的资产负债表可以承受较低的利率。” 尽管白宫施压要求尽早降息,但这一潜在立场并非可以立即发挥作用的论点。但如果沃什获得确认,他在美联储的任期将超出本届政府的任期:他的鸽派倾向可能超越当前的展望,成为下一届美联储时代的一个特征。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Giannis Avgoustidis, Altenar: “Trust is the foundation of lasting customer retention, extending far beyond the World Cup”

(AsiaGameHub) -   With Brazil solidifying its status as one of the globe’s fastest-expanding regulated betting markets, the upcoming World Cup offers a critical chance for operators to boost customer acquisition and retention. Giannis Avgoustidis, Regional Manager at Altenar, shares insights on how sportsbook providers can back Brazil-centric strategies using data, infrastructure, and localization. Interview.— Given football’s deep roots in Brazilian culture, global events like the World Cup generate peak periods of betting activity and rivalry between operators. In this scenario, Altenar’s Regional Manager Giannis Avgoustidis details how providers can assist local brands in enhancing their performance during the tournament—from utilizing official data feeds to refining front-end experiences customized for Brazilian bettors. The World Cup is always a huge event in Brazil. What sets it apart commercially for operators in the country? Brazil eats, sleeps, and breathes football. During the World Cup, user engagement far exceeds what’s seen during regular domestic league games. For operators, this translates to: Notable surges in traffic, particularly on mobile platforms A flood of first-time depositors Higher levels of in-play betting engagement Elevated demands for speed and dependability If your platform lags, suspends markets frequently, or lacks uniqueness, users will swiftly switch to competing operators. What technical support can sportsbook providers offer operators during the tournament? Preparation begins months before the tournament. From our provider’s viewpoint, we concentrate on three key pillars: Infrastructure scalability: Conducting load tests to handle peak concurrent user volumes Market depth: Providing hundreds of pre-match and in-play betting markets for each game Low-latency pricing and settlement: Particularly vital for in-play betting However, the true distinguishing factor is official data. Let’s discuss official data feeds. Why are they crucial for a World Cup strategy? Utilizing official data through authorized distributors provides operators with a significant competitive advantage. Here’s why: Quicker data transmission: Reduced latency for live betting Enhanced integrity safeguards: Direct access minimizes the risk of manipulation More detailed markets: Player props, advanced statistics, and micro-markets Fewer market suspensions: A more seamless in-play experience and increased cashout options In a tournament such as the World Cup—where every millisecond counts—unofficial or delayed data just can’t measure up. How do these advantages translate to tangible commercial benefits for Brazilian operators? Brazilian bettors are highly engaged and digitally literate. They compare odds, cash-out speeds, and user experience (UX) in real time. Official data allows for faster bet approval, more precise cash-out amounts, quick and transparent payout processes, and competitive in-play pricing. This fosters trust—and trust boosts customer retention, not only during the World Cup but long after the tournament ends and attention shifts back to domestic football. Aside from trading and data, how significant is front-end customization? It’s essential in all competitive markets, particularly Brazil. Many operators undervalue the impact of localized UX design on performance. A World Cup strategy isn’t merely about adding more markets—it’s about creating an emotional and user-friendly experience. For instance, a dedicated Brazil team hub lets bettors quickly access fixtures, standings, statistics, and various betting markets all in one spot. The fewer clicks required to find their desired bet, the more positive the experience. Player-centric Bet Builders are growing in popularity and can be easily showcased, alongside prominent odds boosts aligned with national pride. When Brazil is playing, that match should take center stage on the homepage. What role do Bet Builder and personalized markets play during the World Cup? Bet Builder is among the most effective engagement tools for global tournaments. Brazilian bettors enjoy combining multiple selections—such as goalscorer markets, total goals, cards, corners, player shots, and more. Using official data and robust pricing models, providers can offer dynamic, real-time combinations without putting operators at undue risk. The key lies in balancing flexibility with smart risk management tools. How can providers assist operators in managing risk during this high-profile event? Risk management during the World Cup involves: Real-time monitoring dashboards Automated exposure limits Market-specific liability controls Pre-set risk profiles We collaborate closely with operators to tailor settings for Brazil, considering local betting trends, average stake amounts, and promotional strategies. Lastly, what should Brazilian operators focus on now to succeed in the next World Cup cycle? The top priority is investing in front-end localization, not just back-end performance. The World Cup is more than a temporary revenue boost. In Brazil, it’s a moment that shapes a brand’s identity. Operators that provide speed, reliability, and a culturally relevant experience will keep those users engaged long after the final match ends. This article is provided by a third-party.

Galaxsys on Brazil’s iGaming Boom: Adaptation, Not Just Entry, Will Define Success

(AsiaGameHub) -   As Brazil shifts from an unregulated space to a global leader, Galaxsys Chief Product Officer Vigen Safaryan delves into why technical optimization and cultural relevance are the real keys to winning over Latin America’s biggest gaming audience. Opinion.- Brazil’s igaming sector has evolved from a “market with potential” to a regulated global player, compelling international operators to reevaluate their expansion strategies. In this exclusive perspective, Vigen Safaryan, Galaxsys’s CPO, looks at the crucial overlap between regulation and product delivery. As Brazil enters a fully licensed phase, Safaryan contends that success won’t go to those who merely enter the market, but to those who completely revamp their offerings to address the distinct technical and cultural needs of Brazilian players. Brazil has emerged as the most discussed market in igaming – and for valid reasons. This isn’t just growth; it’s a structural change in how global operators and game studios tackle expansion. For years, Latin America was seen as a market with untapped potential. Now, Brazil by itself is turning that potential into a tangible, large-scale reality. With regulations in place and millions of players joining the ecosystem, the market is no longer an unknown; it’s a top priority. From a product standpoint, Brazil offers both an opportunity and a challenge. The line between the two depends entirely on how effectively companies adapt. From grey market to global contender Brazil’s regulatory revamp is one of the most impactful industry changes in recent times. Law 14.790, passed in 2023, followed by the launch of federal licensing in 2025, turned the country from an unregulated space into a controlled, organized market. Operators now need to pay approximately R$30 million (US$6 million) for a five-year license, set up a local entity, and adhere to strict player verification rules—including CPF registration and real-time transaction tracking. “Brazil didn’t just regulate the market; it elevated it. The bar is now significantly higher, and that benefits everyone,” says Vigen Safaryan. A market defined by scale and accessibility Brazil’s statistics speak volumes. Home to more than 213 million people, it’s Latin America’s biggest economy. In 2025, gross gaming revenue hit R$37 billion (US$7 billion), and roughly 25 million Brazilians (12% of adults) placed bets on regulated platforms. “In Brazil, scale matters more than individual spend. You’re not building for a niche audience – you’re building for millions,” Safaryan explains. This means studios need to prioritize accessibility, user retention, and broad appeal over focusing on high rollers. Mobile is a key channel Brazilian gamers are predominantly mobile-first. Over 90% of households have internet access, and more than 80% of devices are Android, usually mid- to low-end. “Performance is everything. If a game doesn’t load quickly or run smoothly on a basic device, the player is lost before the experience begins,” Safaryan notes. Success hinges on simplicity, speed, and reliability instead of flashy visuals or complicated mechanics. Games optimized for European or North American devices often perform poorly in Brazil since they aren’t tailored to local hardware and internet connection conditions. Culture drives engagement more than features Brazilian gamers react positively to local themes and cultural relevance. Online slots are the most popular, but fast-paced games like crash-style, plinko, and mine-based formats are gaining traction because of their instant gratification. “Players in Brazil don’t want to spend time learning a game — they want to feel it immediately,” Safaryan emphasises. Football is deeply rooted in Brazilian culture, with 80% of sports bettors placing wagers on matches. Meanwhile, Carnival-themed visuals, music, and local symbols enhance engagement in casino games. Localisation isn’t just about translation—it’s a design mindset. Partnerships will define market entry Regulatory rules—such as having a local presence and partial Brazilian ownership—make partnerships essential. Working with established operators allows quicker access to player audiences and ensures more seamless compliance. “You need people on the ground who understand the nuances of the market. Without that, decisions are based on assumptions, and assumptions carry risk in Brazil,” Safaryan says. Localizing language, customer support, and marketing is just as important. Brazilian Portuguese is a trust-building element, not just a formality. A market that rewards commitment Brazil’s regulatory revamp is one of the most impactful industry changes in recent times. Law 14.790, passed in 2023, followed by the launch of federal licensing in 2025, turned the country from an unregulated space into a controlled, organized market. Operators now need to pay approximately R$30 million (US$6 million) for a five-year license, set up a local entity, and adhere to strict player verification rules—including CPF registration and real-time transaction tracking. “Brazil didn’t just regulate the market; it elevated it. The bar is now significantly higher, and that benefits everyone,” says Vigen Safaryan. Final thought Brazil is no longer an emerging market—it’s fully established. And in many respects, it’s setting the standard for what the next generation of igaming markets will be like. For game studios, the question isn’t whether to enter Brazil anymore; it’s whether they’re prepared to meet Brazil’s requirements. This article is provided by a third-party.

Carvana如何挺过99%的股价暴跌:“我们很乐意处于下风”

(SeaPRwire) -   Carvana曾是疫情时代最大的企业赢家之一。随着消费者拥抱在线购车和二手车价格飙升,该公司成为市场宠儿和颠覆性数字化的象征。到2022年,它遇到了瓶颈。 利率正在上升,二手车需求正在减弱,融资成本也越来越高。Carvana多年来一直在快速扩张,并为又一个增长大年做好了准备,但突然发现自己面临巨大压力。其股价从峰值暴跌99%,分析师质疑其能否生存。 对于Carvana的战略执行副总裁Christina Keiser来说,这段时期考验了公司能否屏蔽噪音,专注于手头的工作。她告诉,她从这段经历中得到的教训是无情的专注。 正如她所描述的,Carvana一直在攀升,并达到了一个可以增加组织资源、承担更多项目、同时在多个战线上推进的阶段。2022年的压力迫使采取了不同的纪律。领导层必须确定最重要的少数几个优先事项,相应地分配资源,并将其他雄心壮志搁置一旁。 Carvana首先回归客户。即使市场叙事恶化,客户对公司建立的购车体验仍然反应积极。这给了领导团队信心,相信核心服务仍然具有真正的价值。 从那时起,工作变得高度运营化。Carvana围绕一个三步计划组织了其复苏:恢复正的调整后EBITDA,展示显著为正的单位经济效益,并再次增长。领导层将巨大的盈利差距分解为几十个具体的运营目标,为每个目标指定负责人,并每周跟踪。 Carvana还在2023年成功进行了一项关键的债务置换,将总债务减少了13亿多美元,延长了到期日,并降低了短期现金利息支出,为公司执行其运营计划赢得了更多时间。 这个框架使得公司内部的进展可见。团队可以看到潜在指标实时改善,从运输距离缩短到物流效率提高以及其他运营收益,这些都将转化为盈利能力。投资者要到季度业绩才能看到这些变化,但在Carvana内部,这些早期胜利有助于维持对复苏正在进行的信心。 Keiser表示,内部沟通也很重要。领导者提醒员工,剧烈的下跌和强烈的怀疑往往是建立有抱负的事业的一部分。这一刻也触及了公司内部一个更古老的本能。“我们又回到了 the underdog(弱势者)的境地,被质疑,”她说。 这一刻也提高了优先事项的标准。那些有长期潜力但没有迫切短期理由的项目被搁置了。Keiser提到了那些可能在未来创造价值的努力,包括关于回头客或更广泛品牌效益的想法,但这些并没有解决公司眼前的需求。重点转移到了与盈利能力、运营稳定性和核心客户体验最密切相关的方面。 在2025年的 500强榜单上,Carvana排名第314位,比2021年的首次亮相跃升了169位,并报告了2025财年创纪录的203亿美元收入。对于2016年加入Carvana的Keiser来说,能够走出来证明了公司的韧性。“我们不需要每天都得到认可,”她说。“我们非常乐于做 the underdog(弱势者),并说‘我们还有东西要证明’。” Ruth Umohruth.umoh@.com本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Henry Tang, President of The Legion d’Honneur Club, calls for international cooperation to overcome rising protectionism

HONG KONG, Apr 20, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Henry Tang said today at the inaugural Asia-Pacific Symposium organised by The Legion d’Honneur Club that rising geopolitical tensions and protectionism reinforce the need to build a community with a shared future for mankind—a call made by the Chinese Mainland in which Hong Kong has an important role to play.The Legion d’Honneur Club is the Hong Kong chapter of the Society of Members of the Legion d’Honneur (the Hong Kong Chapter). The Legion d’Honneur is the highest and most prestigious civilian and military honour of France, instituted by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1802 and conferred by the President of France to recognise outstanding service or acts of bravery.The inaugural Asia-Pacific Symposium, titled Regional Exchange and Institutional Cohesion, was held today. Chan Kwok-ki, Chief Secretary for Administration of the HKSAR Government, Admiral Alain Coldefy, President of the Society of Members of the Legion d’Honneur, and Christile Drulhe, Consul General of France in Hong Kong and Macau, officiated at the event. In addition, Christopher Hui, Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury of the HKSAR Government, shared with participants, including representatives from Australia, France, the Philippines, and Thailand, the development of Hong Kong as an international financial centre. (Photo 1, 2 & 3)In the welcome remarks, Henry Tang said that Hong Kong’s strength lies in international exchange and cooperation. Hong Kong has long been a staunch advocate of multilateralism as well as open and free economy. The city’s legal and financial infrastructure aligns with international standards. Under the principle of “One Country, Two Systems”, Hong Kong stands as an international financial centre and a global hub for business and culture, championing diversity, openness, and inclusion.He added that Hong Kong’s future brings vast opportunities. The National 15th Five-Year Plan clearly mandates that Hong Kong maintains its status as an international financial centre while developing an East-meets-West centre for international cultural exchange and an international I&T hub. Strategically located at the southeastern tip of China and serving as a pivotal gateway between China and the rest of the world, Hong Kong will certainly benefit from the development of our motherland.The Hong Kong Chapter will continue to deepen cooperation with its French counterparts—especially the Consulate General of France in Hong Kong & Macau—to pursue joint efforts in education, science, and culture, said Henry Tang, to enrich public life.He concluded that the true legacy of the Legion d’Honneur is not the medals they wear, but the trust they build. The Hong Kong Chapter will continue to serve as a dynamic global stage where that trust is translated into tangible action and meaningful impact.20 April 2026Photo 1: (From left to right) Gerard Millet, Vice president of the Legion d’Honneur Club (the Hong Kong Chapter); Admiral Alain Coldefy, President of the Society of Members of the Legion d’Honneur; Chan Kwok-ki, Chief Secretary for Administration of the HKSAR Government; Henry Tang, President of the Legion d’Honneur Club (the Hong Kong Chapter), and Christile Drulhe, Consul General of France in Hong Kong and Macau.Photo 2: The Legion d’Honneur Club holds its first Asia-Pacific Symposium today, attended by Henry Tang, President of the Legion d’Honneur Club (the Hong Kong Chapter) (second right); Chan Kwok-ki, Chief Secretary for Administration of the HKSAR Government (fourth right); Christile Drulhe, Consul General of France in Hong Kong and Macau (first right); Gerard Millet, Vice president of the Legion d’Honneur Club (the Hong Kong Chapter) (first left); Councillors of the Legion d’Honneur Club (the Hong Kong Chapter): David Li (third right); Michael Kadoorie (third left), and Christopher Cheng (second left).Photo 3: (From left to right) Christopher Hui, Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury of the HKSAR Government, and Henry Tang, President of the Legion d’Honneur Club (the Hong Kong Chapter).About The Legion d’Honneur ClubThe Legion d’Honneur Club is the Hong Kong chapter of The Society of Members of the Legion d’Honneur (the Hong Kong Chapter).
