China Risun (01907.HK) Reports Strong 37.7% Net Profit Surge in 2025 Amid Industry Challenges

acn

HONG KONG, Apr 1, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - China Risun Group Limited ("China Risun" or the "Company", together with its subsidiaries, the "Group"; Stock Code: 1907.HK), a leading global integrated coke, coking chemicals, and refined chemicals producer and supplier, as well as a relevant operation management services provider, recently announced its audited consolidated results for the year ended December 31, 2025. The financial report reveals that, despite a market environment characterized by cyclical downturns in the prices of major products, the Group achieved a significant increase in net profit through effective cost control, operational optimization, and business structure adjustment, while continuing to make breakthroughs in the fields of hydrogen energy and high-end refined chemicals.Financial Performance: Profit Growth and Improved Operational EfficiencyFor the 2025 financial year, the Group recorded a revenue of approximately RMB 39.286 billion, representing a year-on-year decrease of about 17.4% from RMB 47.543 billion in the Last Year. The decline in revenue was primarily due to an across-the-board drop in the prices of coke and major chemical products, as both the ferrous and chemical industry chains faced a market landscape of "strong supply and weak demand." Despite the top-line pressure, the Group demonstrated strong operational resilience through strict cost control. During the Year, the cost of sales and services decreased by 17.8% year-on-year, outpacing the decline in revenue. Consequently, the Group's gross profit reached RMB 3.064 billion, with the gross profit margin expanding by 0.5 percentage points year-on-year to 7.8%. More notably, the profit for the Year achieved a counter-cyclical growth, reaching approximately RMB 135 million, representing a significant increase of about 37.7% from RMB 97.80 million in the Last Year. Net cash generated from operating activities amounted to RMB 3.46 billion, a year-on-year surge of 140%, far exceeding the net profit, which indicates further enhanced risk-resistance capabilities and significantly improved earnings quality.Basic earnings per share of the Company for the Year stood at RMB 1.3 cents, a substantial year-on-year increase of 160%, reflecting the growth in profit attributable to the owners of the Company and the positive impact of share repurchases. The Board proposed a final dividend of RMB 0.19 cents per share, amounting to a total of approximately RMB 8.13 million, continuing its solid policy of rewarding shareholders.Business Highlights: Consolidating Coke Leadership, Expanding Operation Management, and Advancing High-End Chemicals & Hydrogen EnergyAs the cornerstone of its business, the Group's coke and coking chemicals manufacturing segment demonstrated distinct cost advantages during the price downtrend cycle. By optimizing coal blending and implementing cost reduction and efficiency improvement strategies, the segment's gross profit margin increased from 8.6% in the Last Year to 12.4%. During the Year, the first coke oven of a new coke project with an annual capacity of 1.8 million tons in Pingxiang, Jiangxi Province commenced operation, further consolidating the Group's economies of scale in production capacity.The operation management and trading businesses have become vital portfolio components for smoothing out cyclical fluctuations. Although revenue from operation management services decreased due to the completion of certain management agreements, the Group secured two new operation management projects in Jilin and Shanxi provinces during the Year, continuing to expand its industry influence. To date, the Group operates 9 management service projects, mainly distributed across Henan, Jilin, Shanxi, Inner Mongolia, Sichuan, and other provinces, managing a total scale of 8.282 million tons and achieving a 6-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.8%. Meanwhile, revenue from the trading business grew by 25.6% year-on-year, effectively supplementing the cash flow.Innovation and high-end transition remain the core driving forces for the Group's development. In the refined chemicals sector, the Group successfully developed and commenced production of the first domestic 5,000 tons/year amino alcohol (2-Amino-2-methyl-1-propanol) project at its Dingzhou Production Base, thereby becoming the world's second-largest producer of amino alcohol. The product has successfully passed the EU REACH registration, paving the way into high-value-added markets such as high-end coatings and pharmaceuticals. Caprolactam, another core product, maintained its solid market position while continuously optimizing costs through technological innovation.The accelerated rollout of the hydrogen energy business is one of the most promising growth drivers in the financial report. The Group's high-purified hydrogen production volume increased by 25.7% year-on-year, capturing an approximate 21.8% market share in North China. Crucially, the Group initiated the construction of the nation's first 5 tons/day liquid hydrogen demonstration project at the Dingzhou Production Base in Hebei Province. This project has been selected for the national-level list of the first major technological equipment in the energy sector, marking a significant technological breakthrough in the hydrogen storage and transportation segment and laying a solid foundation for future commercial applications.Financial Strategy: Robust Cash Flows and Shareholder ReturnsDuring the Year, net cash generated from operating activities improved significantly to approximately RMB 3.465 billion, primarily benefiting from the strengthened management of trade receivables. Despite actively managing capital expenditures for future development, the Group maintained ample liquidity. As of the end of the reporting period, the Group's unutilized banking facilities amounted to approximately RMB 8.036 billion, providing strong support for ongoing business expansion.The Group also actively utilized capital market tools to optimize its capital structure and reward shareholders. During the Year, the Company spent approximately RMB 180 million to repurchase shares and granted share awards to nearly 800 employees under the Share Award Plan, aiming to incentivize the team and share the fruits of corporate development.Future Outlook: Launching the New Five-Year Plan, Focusing on Green Transition and Industrial UpgradeIn its latest financial report, the Group announced that it has formulated its Seventh Five-Year Development Plan for the period from 2026 to 2030. Looking ahead, China Risun will continue to increase its market share in the coke, refined chemicals, and hydrogen-energy products markets through capacity expansion, mergers and acquisitions, and joint ventures. Particularly in the hydrogen energy sector, the Group will actively seize policy opportunities under China's "15th Five-Year Plan," aiming to become a clean and low-carbon hydrogen energy supplier, while exploring the industrialization of liquid hydrogen and the construction of integrated hydrogen-energy stations.Faced with a complex market environment in 2025, the Group achieved counter-cyclical profitability improvements relying on its integrated and industrial-park-based operational model, exceptional cost-control capabilities, and forward-looking R&D innovation. Entering the new Five-Year Plan cycle, China Risun will resolutely drive the green transition and high-end upgrade of the coking industry, cultivate refined chemicals into a crucial "second growth curve", continuously expand its global footprint, and deepen technological innovation.  The Group is committed to achieving a higher level of sustainable development and accelerating its green and low-carbon transformation, while continuing to deliver long-term value and superior returns to shareholders.

Search Ongoing for Second Suspect in $1.3 Million Missouri Casino Heist

admin

(AsiaGameHub) -   A strange daylight heist occurred at the Isle of Capri Casino in Missouri last week, resulting in the arrest of a security guard connected to the crime. Authorities are still actively searching for a second suspect who escaped with nearly $1.3 million from the casino. An Inside Man Makes All the Difference The robbery appeared to be proceeding as planned, and the perpetrators might have successfully evaded capture or identification for a significant period. However, a casino patron stepped in to confront the thieves. This intervention allowed police to apprehend 21-year-old Benjamin Michael-Dass Charles, who was employed as a security guard at the facility. His accomplice, 20-year-old Hollis C. Vanleer Jr., remains at large, and the Missouri State Highway Patrol is currently working to take him into custody. The incident unfolded in broad daylight at 2:13 pm when two masked individuals armed with AR-15-style rifles entered the casino. The suspects, believed to be Vanleer and an associate, quickly accessed the casino’s bank area and filled a duffel bag with $1,276,000. As they neared the exit, a customer intervened and tackled one of the men. The second suspect returned and struck the patron in the face until his partner was able to break free. The pair fled in a 1998 Ford Taurus, which was later discovered abandoned in Howard County. Inside the vehicle, investigators found a receipt for a purchase made with a card belonging to Charles, enabling officers to identify at least one participant and arrest him on Friday, March 27. The Jig Is Up for the Security Guard Charles was working his shift during the robbery, which was part of the scheme. He is considered the mastermind behind the operation, particularly since a weapon registered to him was recovered from the abandoned getaway car. Charles spent approximately a month planning the heist, including coordinating his accomplices' movements on the gaming floor and determining the optimal time to strike. Police also discovered explosive devices in the vehicle, which Charles stated were intended to serve as a diversion. Regarding the stolen money and the rifles, Charles confessed to transporting them out of state. He faces charges of first-degree robbery, first-degree assault, armed criminal action, possession of explosive weapons, and tampering with physical evidence, while the search for his accomplices continues.

Nepal’s Prime Minister, Former Rapper, Blocks Access to Gambling Sites

admin

(AsiaGameHub) -   Nepal's newly appointed prime minister, 35-year-old former rapper Balendra Shah, assumed office on Friday, March 27. His first major action was a directive to shut down online betting platforms and applications. Fulfilling a campaign pledge, Balen has ordered a block on internet gambling as part of a larger effort to enhance governance and oversight. The Ministry of Communications and Information Technology is tasked with implementing this order and ensuring operators are restricted within the nation. Although gambling is already prohibited in Nepal, the prime minister is focusing on preventing international operators from targeting local residents despite existing bans. This initiative addresses rising worries regarding the social and financial consequences of online wagering, especially for the youth. The prime minister demanded access be blocked within 24 hours, signaling a push for immediate action. Internet Service Providers (ISPs) must now execute this order to stop citizens from reaching gambling portals. The success of this initiative will hinge on the speed at which authorities can detect illicit sites and mandate ISP restrictions. Conversely, unauthorized websites, particularly those determined to reach players, will likely circumvent these measures by utilizing mirror sites or changing domains.

BetMGM Discontinues Credit Card Acceptance, Blocks New Applications

admin

(AsiaGameHub) -   BetMGM has formally discontinued the use of credit cards for its sportsbook and online casino services. The operator confirmed that, effective Tuesday, March 31, it is blocking all new credit card registrations. BetMGM Ends New Credit Card Use – Begins Phasing Existing Ones Out Users who have previously deposited bonuses or funds using their current credit cards will be permitted to use those balances before their cards are also deactivated. This process will be gradual, but BetMGM has taken a firm stance, aligning with a broader industry movement where other gambling giants are also abandoning this payment method due to consumer protection concerns. However, the move to halt credit card use is driven by a more extensive business logic. BetMGM was recently penalized $100,000 in Pennsylvania after the state's gaming board found that thousands of accounts were fraudulently opened using stolen identities. Eliminating credit card payments will assist BetMGM in addressing comparable fraud incidents going forward. Restricting this deposit option would directly enhance consumer safety and also complicate efforts for bad actors to exploit stolen information. Deeper Business Rationale as Credit Cards Ban Is Good for Companies From a financial perspective, firms also have minimal incentive to avoid this course of action. Per Citizens JMP Securities analyst Jordan Bender, DraftKings, which ceased taking credit card payments in September, has seen no major negative fallout. The industry consensus is that prohibiting credit cards does not materially affect company profitability. FanDuel and DraftKings already function in several jurisdictions that prohibit credit cards for funding gambling accounts, including Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Oregon, Rhode Island, and others. While a credit card ban offers public relations benefits, it primarily fulfills a more significant regulatory and financial objective for gambling operators.

Lisa of Blackpink to Become the First K-Pop Star with a Las Vegas Residency

admin

(AsiaGameHub) -   Las Vegas is set to welcome Lisa, the Blackpink member and K-Pop artist. This engagement marks the first residency for a K-Pop star in Sin City and has been aptly titled “Viva La Visa.” The shows will take place across two weekends at the Colosseum in Caesars Palace – on November 13-14 and November 27-28. Lisa brings a strong repertoire for fans, including her solo album "Alter Ego" from last year and a recently released EP titled “Deadline.” Las Vegas residencies have consistently attracted both tourists and performers who are comfortable with repeated shows in one venue. Metallica recently announced their own residency at The Sphere, scheduled to begin on October 1, 2026. Earlier this year in February, the Backstreet Boys confirmed a third extension of their residency at the same venue. Artists from across the globe have made it a tradition to perform regularly in Las Vegas. Bruno Mars, a frequent performer in the city, was once the subject of rumors alleging he owed MGM Resorts International a significant gambling debt, a claim that was denied by both the singer and the resort.

Confirmed: Super Bowl Set to Return to Las Vegas in 2029

admin

(AsiaGameHub) -   Las Vegas will play host to the Super Bowl in 2029, as Allegiant Stadium has been selected to hold the game for the second time after its first hosting gig in 2024. The Decision Is Official NFL team owners voted to approve the widely anticipated choice during a gathering in Phoenix, confirming a result many insiders had predicted for months. That inaugural Las Vegas-hosted Super Bowl ended with Kansas City beating San Francisco 25-22 in overtime, and the event left a lasting positive impression on league leadership. For many years, though, the NFL avoided holding the event in Las Vegas, primarily due to concerns related to legalized sports wagering. But stances have evolved as the city has steadily developed into a leading national sports hub. “We’re Excited to Bring the Super Bowl Back to Las Vegas” Commissioner Roger Goodell expressed enthusiasm for the announcement, citing the city’s proven capacity to execute large-scale, high-profile events. “We’re excited to bring the Super Bowl back to Las Vegas and provide our fans another incredible experience in one of America’s greatest sports and entertainment destinations,” he said. Goodell also emphasized the positive impact of the 2024 event. “Super Bowl LVIII demonstrated the scale, energy, and hospitality the city brings to global events, and we look forward to working alongside the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, the Raiders, and the community to deliver an even greater experience this time around.” The NFL’s upcoming Super Bowl hosting lineup is already fully locked in, with California set to host next year’s game in Inglewood, followed by Atlanta in 2028, before Las Vegas takes its turn as host in 2029. “A Testament” to the Raiders, the NFL, and the Community Raiders owner Mark Davis attributed the return of the game to years of coordinated planning and cross-group collaboration. “It’s a testament to the Raiders, the LVCVA, civic leaders, the community, and the NFL working together as one,” he said. “Super Bowl LVIII set a high bar, and for Super Bowl LXIII we are committed to raising it even further.” Las Vegas has built a strong reputation as a dependable host for major sporting events. Since the Raiders relocated to the city in 2020, it has also hosted the 2022 NFL Draft, and is scheduled to put on a number of other high-profile events in the coming years, including the College Football Playoff national championship and the Final Four. NFL executive Peter O’Reilly stated that the success of Las Vegas’ first Super Bowl made the approval decision an easy one. “Clearly, Super Bowl 58 in Las Vegas was a tremendous success,” he said. “Every element of that, everything that Las Vegas brought to bear, the energy, the size, the scale, the hospitality. That’s why Las Vegas is the host of so many premier sports and entertainment events,” added O’Reilly. This article is provided by a third-party.

acn

HONG KONG, Apr 1, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - On 31 March 2026, Yuanda China Holdings Limited (Stock Code: 02789.HK, "Yuanda China"), a global leader in the curtain wall industry, announced its audited annual consolidated results for the year ended 31 December 2025 (the "Reporting Period").In 2025, competition in the building curtain wall industry continued to intensify, placing higher demands on enterprises' technical capabilities, project management, and financial operational capability. In light of the market conditions in 2025, the Group adhered to the business principle of "prudent operation, quality improvement and efficiency enhancement, and risk control", and fully leveraged its professional strengths. During the year, the Group continued to deepen refined management, focusing on lean control throughout the entire project lifecycle to effectively improve engineering quality and delivery efficiency. At the same time, the Group strengthened supply chain coordination and strictly controlled procurement costs to further consolidate cost competitiveness. In terms of market expansion, the Group focused on quality overseas clients and high-quality projects, proactively avoiding high-risk orders to ensure healthy and stable cash flow. Furthermore, the Group deepened technological innovation, transformed its production model, obtained 7 new utility model patents, and has built a product system with core technological competitive advantages. In 2025, the Group achieved steady and robust growth by leveraging sound business strategies and exceptional project execution capabilities.Benefiting from the tangible results of continuously improving operational efficiency and the successful delivery of core projects both domestically and internationally, the Group’s operating revenue in 2025 increased significantly by 27.2% on a year-on-year basis to approximately RMB 2,814.6 million (Unit: RMB, the same below), among which, the domestic revenue amounted to approximately RMB 1,271.6 million, with an increase of 25.1% compared with 2024, contributing approximately 45.2% of the Group’s total revenue; the overseas revenue amounted to approximately RMB 1,543.0 million, with an increase of 29.0% compared with 2024, contributing approximately 54.8% of the Group’s total revenue.

New York Moves to Curb Youth Betting and AI in Gambling Reform

admin

(AsiaGameHub) -   New York is gearing up for a comprehensive revamp of its sports betting regulations, prioritizing the protection of minors and mitigating the dangers associated with compulsive gambling. Spearheaded by Governor Kathy Hochul, this initiative implements a combination of technological barriers and enhanced supervision for betting operators throughout the state. New York Considers Biometric Checks and AI Restrictions in Gambling Enforcement These proposals arise from increasing anxiety regarding the swift expansion of mobile wagering apps, which officials fear are highly visible and accessible to younger demographics. State authorities contend that although wagering is limited to individuals 21 and older, minors have successfully circumvented these rules, frequently by utilizing accounts registered to another person’s identity. To seal these loopholes, regulators are evaluating a range of measures focused on identity verification. A primary consideration is the implementation of biometric authentication, mandating that users verify their identity both during account creation and prior to placing wagers. Further safeguards might involve device registration protocols and location monitoring intended to detect irregular access patterns or concurrent logins from geographically distant areas. A significant component of the strategy involves a proposed prohibition on utilizing artificial intelligence for marketing activities. Regulators worry that AI mechanisms used to customize promotions and recommend bets could negatively impact susceptible individuals. Within the new regulatory structure, operators would retain the ability to analyze user behavior for safety monitoring, but they would be barred from swaying betting choices via personalized incentives. New York Proposes Stepped Interventions for Hazardous Gambling Habits The regulatory updates also establish a systematic method for detecting risky gambling behavior. Operators would be mandated to intervene upon the activation of specific predefined “activity triggers” associated with emerging patterns. These indicators might include substantial deposits made in brief timeframes, frequent withdrawal cancellations, or sudden spikes in gambling duration. Upon the activation of a trigger, operators would be required to adhere to a tiered response protocol. The first phase would entail distributing details regarding responsible gambling resources. Should the problematic behavior persist, users could be compelled to view educational content. In escalated scenarios, operators would establish direct outreach and potentially suspend accounts. Continued warning signs could result in account termination and referrals to professional assistance programs. The accountability measures outlined in the proposals reach beyond just the operators. Adults discovered to have facilitated underage gambling risk being barred entirely from engaging in any legal gambling activities within the state. The New York State Gaming Commission has initiated a public consultation on the draft regulations, soliciting input from industry players, advocacy organizations, and citizens. The consultation window is scheduled to remain open until mid-May. Officials characterize the initiative as a component of a larger strategy to balance the financial advantages of legalized wagering with the imperative to protect public health, especially given the ongoing expansion of digital gambling.

Analysis: 83% of US iGaming Operators Lack Licenses

admin

(AsiaGameHub) -   Blask has published a fresh analysis of the North American online gambling sector, revealing that offshore operators still capture the majority of market value across both the US and Canada, even as regulated brands continue to expand. US.- Blask, an AI-enabled analytics platform focused on the igaming and gambling market, has released its 2025 assessment of the US and Canadian online gambling ecosystem, with specific emphasis on the scale of offshore operations and the performance of regulated operators. Findings from the report indicate that 83 percent of operators catering to US players do not hold valid US licenses, with 290 out of 362 total operators operating as offshore platforms. No US regulatory jurisdiction has fully eliminated offshore gambling activity, as regulation adjusts market balance rather than erasing unlicensed competition entirely. Blask calculates that the total US online gambling market hit $79.8 billion in Competitive Earning Baseline (CEB) in 2025. Licensed operators claimed $25.2 billion of that sum, while $54.6 billion flowed to offshore platforms. This marks a 3 percent year-over-year increase for offshore operators, compared to a 20.6 percent annual rise for domestic licensed providers. Four in every five operating brands are based offshore, and three of the top five highest-earning operators by CEB lack US licenses. Bovada sits at the top of the rankings with nearly a quarter higher CEB than FanDuel; BetOnline and MyBookie round out the offshore dominance of the top five spots. Both FanDuel and DraftKings recorded double-digit growth over the period. A number of US markets have no legal online gambling frameworks in place, while many regulated states restrict legal online gambling exclusively to sports betting. 60 percent of all gambling value in New York flows to offshore operators, while that figure rises to 83 percent in Ohio, and a combined $10 billion in gambling revenue goes entirely to offshore platforms across California and Texas. States with full regulation covering both sports betting and online casino perform far better: New Jersey and Michigan capture 75 percent of all gambling revenue through domestic licensed operators, demonstrating that comprehensive regulatory rules drive higher channelization of players to legal platforms. Lottery is the most frequently searched gambling category when measuring generic search terms. Within the live dealer segment, blackjack and roulette are the most popular offerings. Interest in online casino is primarily driven by slots and Plinko, while football ranks as the top sport for online betting activity. Canada establishes itself as a global igaming powerhouse Canada has become one of the fastest-growing online gambling markets worldwide. The report estimates that the country’s online gambling market reached $9.5 billion in 2025, making it the third-largest online gambling market globally, trailing only the US and the UK. Offshore operators saw their market share grow 40 percent in year-on-year terms vs a 23 percent annual rise for regulated operators, with 63 percent of all operating brands in the country based offshore. The top five operators claim over 60 percent of the total market, led by offshore platforms Stake and Roobet. Ontario accounts for 85 percent of the country’s total regulated market, but the average province with a monopoly gambling model sees 76 percent of its gambling value go to offshore operators. Quebec, even with its dominant local operator, sees 83 percent of its gambling revenue flow offshore. The province of Alberta is preparing to roll out a competitive market modeled after Ontario’s system in 2026. Currently, PlayAlberta, the province’s official regulated gambling platform, captures only roughly 12 percent of Alberta’s total online gambling market. According to Blask, if Alberta successfully replicates Ontario’s open-market framework, the balance between regulated and offshore operators across Canada could shift dramatically. The Blask report states: “With 230 active brands vying for market share, the country pairs strong consumer demand with a highly dynamic competitive landscape. For operators, affiliates, and investors, the core takeaway is clear: Canada’s market size is already among the world’s largest, but its regulatory fragmentation continues to shape where revenue ultimately flows.” This article is provided by a third-party.

雪莉·桑德伯格任命一位25岁年轻人领导Lean In，她的计划是缩小AI领域的性别差距

admin

(SeaPRwire) -   女性在人工智能（AI）的采用方面正落后于男性，前Meta首席运营官Sheryl Sandberg深知这一点。因此，她正重新聚焦其女性领导力非营利组织Lean In，致力于缩小人工智能性别差距——并任命一位25岁的年轻人来领导这项工作。 Lean In对1000名美国成年人进行的一项新调查显示，33%的男性每天使用人工智能，而女性为27%。 Sandberg告诉，虽然差距正在缩小，但即使是微小的差异也可能随着时间的推移产生巨大的影响。 “我们都知道人工智能已经开始并且有能力改变我们的工作方式、谁在劳动力队伍中、我们的生活方式以及我们的沟通方式，”Sandberg说。 3月24日，Sandberg宣布25岁的Bridget Griswold（前Meta产品经理）成为Lean In的新任首席执行官。尽管Griswold的年龄和有限的非营利组织经验受到公众批评，Sandberg表示，该非营利组织正在寻找一位拥有产品背景的“人工智能原生代”，而Griswold正符合这一要求。 此次任命正值动荡时期：《华尔街日报》最近报道称，包括Lean In在内的Sandberg Goldberg Bernthal Family Foundation在过去一年中通过裁员和自愿离职裁掉了四分之一的员工。 Lean In转向人工智能之际，根据该组织2025年《职场女性》报告，只有一半的公司优先考虑女性的职业发展，超过30%的公司对提升有色人种女性职业发展的重视程度很低或根本不重视。女性的工作被人工智能自动化的可能性是男性的三倍——而她们在人工智能领导和开发领域的代表性不足加剧了这种脆弱性。 研究发现，女性比男性更有可能在面对人工智能时感到受到威胁、不知所措，并感觉自己像是在“作弊”。她们也更有可能因为伦理和准确性问题而避免使用人工智能。 “这些都是很好的担忧，女性关心伦理和不作弊是很棒的。但真正令人担忧的是，这可能会无意中导致女性使用人工智能的频率低于男性，”Griswold告诉。 调查发现，男性因使用人工智能而受到表扬的可能性高出27%，而女性获得管理者支持使用人工智能的可能性则低23%。 “那些鼓励男性使用人工智能而不鼓励女性的管理者——他们可能甚至不知道自己在这样做，”Sandberg说，并补充说，针对女性的偏见通常是无意的。“当你揭示这些偏见时，当你告诉人们，告诉管理者，看，总体数据显示你比女性更鼓励男性——这是纠正这种偏见的第一步。” Lean In的新时代 Griswold于1月加入Lean In，担任产品和人工智能负责人，并于3月接替了长期担任首席执行官兼联合创始人Rachel Thomas。她说，为了实现Lean In让更多女性进入领导层的目标，她们需要使用人工智能。 “我们希望Lean In能够成为一个鼓励（年轻女性）使用人工智能并真正（产生）实际成果的地方，”她说，并补充说，她希望Lean In能成为女性建立自信、加速职业生涯的地方。 “我们需要确保我们专注于帮助下一代女性领导，而产品和人工智能将对此至关重要，这也是Bridget能够担任领导角色的众多原因之一，我们非常幸运，”Sandberg说。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。

jcn

President Eisaku Ito welcomes new employees at the ceremonyTOKYO, Apr 1, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI) held an entrance ceremony for the fiscal year 2026 at the Grand Prince Hotel New Takanawa in Minato-ku, Tokyo. This year, as a new initiative, some of the new employees' families also participated in the ceremony online. President & CEO Eisaku Ito addressed over 1,100 new employees, offering words of encouragement and expressing his expectations that "each individual's diverse values and experiences will bring innovation to our Group."Summary of President Ito's MessageMaking the stable supply of energy and electricity and the establishment of strategic supply chains increasingly important, alongside heightened awareness of security. Labor shortages in developed countries and the aging of urban infrastructure also pose major challenges. Furthermore, the remarkable advances in AI technology are transforming industries. Against this backdrop, President & CEO Ito emphasized that "in times like these, it is essential to cherish the fundamentals of our company." He explained the origins of our Group and the three corporate principles that form our management philosophy, including "putting customers first and contributing to social progress through our business." He then spoke about the Group's vision and offered encouragement to the new employees. The key points are as follows:MHI Group VisionOur Group's mission is to "combine the technologies accumulated with cutting-edge knowledge, tackle evolving social challenges, and realize a prosperous life for people." We provide diverse products and services to a wide range of customers, supported by a common foundation of technologies, experts, and IT systems. Our Group owns over 700 technologies. Companies that possess both such diversity and a common foundation are rare worldwide. Therefore, our Group still has significant room for growth.To maximize our growth potential, we are promoting "Innovative Total Optimization (ITO)" throughout the company. ITO is based on two core concepts. The first is "Group-Wide Optimization," which means optimizing the value chain from sales to manufacturing and enabling lean business operations through the common foundation mentioned earlier. Additionally, by strengthening collaboration between businesses, sharing lessons learned from failures and early signs of changes in the business environment, we aim to enhance productivity and profitability. The second concept is "Scope Expansion," which anticipates latent needs and creates new value by "smartly connecting" different fields. By leveraging partnering and IT, we swiftly approach new customers and regions. Combining these approaches, we will provide new value to vastly more customers.This fiscal year marks the final year of the "2024 Business Plan," launched in fiscal 2024. Through achieving this plan and advancing ITO, we aim to realize a "virtuous cycle of high profitability and growth investment."Encouragement to New EmployeesOur Group fosters a culture where young employees can take on significant challenges early in their careers. When I was a student, I researched gas turbines and aspired to become an engineer in this field. I joined Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, the only company in Japan independently developing gas turbines. I was entrusted with a project to develop a turbine for a new concept jet engine. I was involved in all manufacturing processes from planning to development, design, prototyping, and evaluation, which later became the foundation of our business. Since then, as an engineer, I have participated in various projects both domestically and internationally, and with each experience, including failures, I saw personal growth.The greatest appeal of our Group is its deep connection with society. There are countless opportunities to realize the desire to "contribute to society through manufacturing." Our business fields extend from the depths of the ocean to the far reaches of space.People are the core of our Group. To enhance individual capabilities, we provide various opportunities for challenges and growth. However, these opportunities are not only given but must also be actively pursued. We want you to identify social issues you are passionate about in your own life, align them with organizational goals, and continue to challenge yourself and grow.In your daily work, please especially keep in mind to "work cheerfully and enjoyably," "focus on the small tasks in front of you," and "be yourself." Mental and physical health are the foundation of life. When things are tough, there is actually an opportunity to rapidly develop your abilities. Also, small tasks support our Group's large businesses. The day will come when you will be entrusted with major work, so prepare thoroughly with humility and courage, and expand the areas where you can contribute. Be aware of how your work benefits society, set your own goals, and put them into practice.Our Group has many jobs that contribute to social progress, global-scale work, and work that only we can do. With the ambition and responsibility to proactively create and support society, let us maximize our Group's potential and continue to take on challenges on the global stage.About MHI GroupMitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) Group is one of the world’s leading industrial groups, spanning energy, smart infrastructure, industrial machinery, aerospace and defense.
