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

(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.

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

(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

(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

(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。

MHI President Eisaku Ito Offers Words of Encouragement to New Employees at the Company’s 2026 Welcoming Ceremony

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.

联想控股2025年纯利飙升近7倍 科创布局步入效能释放期

香港, 2026年4月1日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 2026年3月31日,据香港财华社报道,今日,联想控股(3396.HK)正式发布2025年度业绩,在"十四五"收官之年交出了一份颇亮眼的成绩单。业绩公告显示,2025年公司实现收入6059.45亿元,同比增长18%;净利润97.99亿元,同比增长28%;归母净利飙升698%至10.61亿元。业绩强势回暖的同时,董事会建议派发末期股息每股0.1元(除税前)。据公司称,收入增长的主因是由于公司产业运营板块之附属公司联想集团收入同比大幅增长,而利润增长则主要受益于资本市场回暖,由产业孵化与投资板块业务亏损同比减少所致。从市场关切的视角来看,联想控股如何构建其科技创新体系,仍是最受关注的焦点之一。2025年,联想控股研发投入超170亿元,同比增长10%,创下历史新高。"十四五"期间累计研发投入超750亿元,较"十三五"增长超60%。与此同时,公司25年投资中国科技企业近150家,覆盖AI、具身智能、半导体、生物医药、商业航天、新能源新材料等多个科技前沿领域;目前在AI领域已投资超300家企业,拥有完整和全面的AI生态体系。此外,联想控股CEO于浩博士进一步介绍了公司的科技创新体系:在产业端,以联想集团、联泓新科为代表,围绕主业加大研发投入;在孵化到投资端,以旗下基金投资中国科技前沿,并以联想之星创业CEO特训班为平台,培育中国科技创业生态圈;在技术研发端,以联想控股前瞻技术研究院探索早期技术商业化,真正实现创新链与产业链的无缝对接。当中,于浩特别提到了去年与北京大学合作成立的"先进光子集成技术联合实验室":"这是我们进军光子芯片这一全新领域的一次尝试,从而用‘协同前创新’模式替代传统的‘成果后转化’,拉近源头创新与产业需求的距离。"据他透露,未来联想控股还将在人工智能、新能源、新材料、智能传感等多个领域推进项目落地,加速推进面向新兴支柱产业和未来产业的全生命周期科创战略。此外,资产退出与资金用途也是资本市场关注的焦点。2025年,联想控股通过分红和退出方式回流现金74亿元。"十四五"期间,公司累计回流资金超450亿元。董事长宁旻对此表示:"退出部分项目是基于公司战略聚焦的考量。回流的资源有力地支持了公司对科技创新和实体经济的大规模投入。"其中相当一部分被重新投入到科技研发与前沿布局中,这种良性循环恰恰是联控能够持续加码科创的底气所在。现阶段,联想控股的科创布局已形成清晰的战略闭环。在"十四五"收官、"十五五"将至的节点上,联想控股的科创属性也正在经历从量变到质变的转化。核心资产的战略韧性、产学研融合的实质性落地、被投企业IPO的持续放量,这些都展现了对资本市场而言,其价值锚点正从"产业控股的多元化"加速走向"科技赋能的体系化"。而当聚焦科技主业、深化科创布局开始持续兑现为业绩增长,不难从中看出,联想控股的价值重塑目前已步入效能释放期。 Copyright 2026 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

VCREDIT Releases 2025 Full-Year Results

HONG KONG, Apr 1, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - March 31 2026, VCREDIT Holdings Limited ("VCREDIT" or the "Group"; Stock Code: 2003.HK), a leading technology-driven consumer financial service provider in China, today announced its audited consolidated results for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the "Year").During the Year, as the external environment remained complex and challenging, the Group dynamically optimized its strategies and strengthened risk management to enhance operational efficiency. It also consolidated its business framework, committed to building a secure and compliant digital financial ecosystem. The Group adopted a prudent strategic approach, advancing steadily while dynamically assessing new market opportunities.During the Year, the Group's loan origination volume in the Chinese mainland reached RMB58.45 billion. Cumulative registered users increased to 171 million, representing an increase of 8.2% from the end of 2024. The Group's total income remained relatively stable at RMB3,870.9 million.Prudently Optimizing Business Structure and Consolidating High-Quality Customer BaseFacing changes in the macroeconomic environment, the Group strengthened risk control and cost optimization, advancing its business prudently and gradually shifting its focus toward relatively higher-quality customer segments and more sustainable business models. By deepening ecosystem partnerships with multiple industry platforms, the Group refined its end-to-end intelligent customer acquisition and operation systems, and continued to optimize its funding partnership structure to enhance business resilience.Building upon its continuously enhanced technological capabilities, the Group focused on maintaining its base of high-quality users, intensifying collaborations with premium platforms across various sectors, including a leading comprehensive retail e-commerce provider, online travel service platforms, smart devices companies, and a map service provider. By establishing an intelligent outreach system integrating "smart SMS and AI-powered outbound calls," the Group created a full-cycle customer acquisition closed loop, encompassing precise screening, layered outreach, and efficient conversion.In operating its existing customer base, the Group implemented a two-dimensional strategy combining willingness models with risk models to execute refined and differentiated operations and services for various customer segments. Adhering to a "customer-centric" service philosophy, the Group fully integrated consumer rights protection into the entire product and service lifecycle. During the Year, repeat borrowers accounted for 80.7% of the total loan origination volume for its business in the Chinese mainland, demonstrating sustained user loyalty.Upgrading Technology-Driven Capabilities with AI Empowering Multiple Business ScenariosTechnology serves as a core strategic driver for the Group's sustainable business development. In 2025, centered on artificial intelligence (AI), the Group continued to advance the evolution from tool-based usage to systematic intelligence. Through the integration of causal inference algorithms into its "Hummingbird" intelligent risk control platform, the Group focused on enhancing risk identification capabilities and model stability within complex customer segments and volatile market environments. The application of the AI-powered marketing robot effectively contributed to improvements in customer acquisition conversion and customer value.Simultaneously, intelligent agent technologies, such as the "Digital Operations Engineer," have extended automation capabilities across the entire R&D and operational lifecycle. Currently, approximately 30% of code generation and standardized operational procedures are automated, solidifying the efficiency foundation. To address long-term technology trends, the Group has initiated specialized research on financial vertical large language models in collaboration with scientific research institutions and continues to explore technological integration with traditional finance and the Web3.0 ecosystem. The Group's research and development expenses for the Year increased by 43.9% year-on-year, reflecting the Company's continued investment in technological capabilities.Steadily Advancing International Exploration and Expanding New Business HorizonsWhile deepening its core consumer finance business in the Chinese mainland, the Group continued to advance its strategic expansion into new markets. Its Hong Kong business, "CreFIT," consistently deepened collaborations with high-quality platforms to broaden its customer base and launched a loan service featuring instant approval via WhatsApp, seeking to embed financial services into users' daily scenarios. Meanwhile, the Group formally entered the Indonesian market by launching its licensed Information Technology-Based Joint Funding Services (LPBBTI), marking an important milestone. Leveraging its proven operational experience, the Group looks forward to creating sustainable value for shareholders of the Group.Outlook: Focusing on Quality and SustainabilityLooking ahead, VCREDIT noted that the macroeconomic landscape and industry regulatory framework are evolving dynamically. The Group will continue to leverage its established capabilities in risk management and technology, while rationally embracing industry trends and innovations. Future strategies will focus on: refining and adapting credit solutions to serve high-quality customers; improving operational efficiency and risk management capabilities by continuously advancing AI technologies in core business scenarios; reinforcing long-term partnerships with licensed financial institutions and premium cross-industry scenario partners; and cautiously evaluating potential investment opportunities, pursuing appropriate arrangements as they align with long-term goals to support steady and high-quality business development.
