ACE Money Transfer Announces Its Much-Anticipated Salam Bangladesh Campaign with Bigger Prizes This Ramadan
ACE Money Transfer Announces Its Much-Anticipated Salam Bangladesh Campaign with Bigger Prizes This Ramadan

MANCHESTER, England, March 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- A growing UK-based remittance service provider, ACE Money Transfer, is delighted to announce its renowned promotion, 'Salam Bangladesh,' this time with bigger prizes in line with the Bangladeshi government's 2.5% incentives on foreign remittances to promote the use of regulated channels. ACE Money Transfer Announces Salam Bangladesh Campaign Again This Ramadan The company is giving away eight new iPhone 15 Pro and 50 cash prizes of BDT 20,000 each to Bangladeshi customers across the UK, European Union countries, Canada, Australia, and Switzerland. This promotion is open to all customers who will send money to Bangladesh through ACE Money Transfer throughout Ramadan 2024. Despite a colossal 7.69% surge in remittance during the past 7 months, recording over $2.1 billion in January and February 2024, the new year began with a foreign exchange crisis for Bangladesh. The World Bank projects that the overall remittance inflows to Bangladesh in FY24 are expected to remain flat at $23 billion. Several Economists and other Financial experts attribute the flat ratio of remittances to the weak dollar exchange rates that have driven Bangladeshi diasporas towards using unregulated channels like Hawala/Hundi. ACE Money Transfer has stepped forward to promote the use of regulated channels to drive increased remittance inflows to Bangladesh. The firm believes that alongside the government's 2.5% incentive, its much-anticipated 'Salam Bangladesh' promotion will significantly help stimulate the remittance inflows to Bangladesh. Customers can win the said prizes by sending remittances to Bangladesh via ACE Money Transfer throughout Ramadan 2024. Bangladeshi expats will need to use the code 'BANGLA' to register their entries to the lucky draws when creating remittance transactions via ACE Money Transfer. Mr Rashid Ashraf, CEO of ACE Money Transfer, says, "We stand committed to empowering Bangladeshi overseas workers through cutting-edge digital remittance solutions. With deep gratitude for the tireless efforts of our global Bangladeshi diaspora, we pledge unwavering support, delivering excellence in service and rewarding experiences."

How Does EVB Enhance EV Mobility at Valencia Airport, a Top 10 Spain Airport?

MADRID, March 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- With growing global concerns about climate change, the adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs) in Spain is swiftly increasing. Airports, as vital transportation hubs, are actively adapting to these trends by exploring innovative business models. In light of this, Valencia Airport in Spain has partnered with EVB (a sub-brand of Beny focusing on smart charging solutions) to establish a charging station equipped with 80 AC EV chargers and 4 DC EV chargers, offering convenient charging solutions. The successful execution of this project has revitalized the airport's operations and marked a significant stride in advancing electric mobility in Spain.

With the surge in EVs, there's a growing demand for parking and charging amenities. To meet these needs, airport management is upgrading charging facilities to enhance service quality and accommodate evolving user preferences. What prompts the need for charging?Whether driven by convenience, cost efficiency, or adaptability, an increasing number of EV drivers opt to park at the airport and charge their EVs. Depending on the duration of parking, airport parking generally falls into distinct categories:Long-term parking: Typically selected by travelers embarking on business trips or vacations, necessitating extended parking durations at the airport, spanning from 1 to 3 days, or even up to half a month to a month.Short-term parking: Commonly chosen by passengers for dropping off or picking up friends or family members traveling by air, or for airport visitors, with parking durations typically lasting around 1 to 2 hours.Other durations: Airport personnel also require parking accommodations, usually during their working hours. How do EVB solutions meet user needs?The EVB team engaged in extensive discussions with airport authorities and provided customized EV charging solutions for them, catering to various types of parking user groups:For Long-term Parking:Requirements: Users requiring extended parking durations prioritize remote control and management over charging speed.

Supporting payment methods such as PayPal and offline transactions, it offers users a convenient, secure, and flexible payment experience. Other durations:Requirements: Vary depending on specific circumstances.Solutions: Airport staff can opt for AC chargers if the range is sufficient while choosing DC chargers if rapid replenishment is required, which all depends on their actual requirements. What accomplishments have been achieved?Enhanced service provision: The integration of 84 EVB EV chargers has augmented the airport's service capacity by 172 charging points, notably enhancing service quality and bolstering the airport's competitive edge.Addressing diverse demands: These EV chargers offer a variety of charging power and modes, catering to the varied user requirements and enriching their overall experience.Pioneering a novel approach: The airport has transitioned from a conventional business model to an innovative one. This project has not only boosted the utilization rate of the airport parking lot but has also expanded revenue streams, generating income from parking fees and charging tariffs.Championing eco-friendly travel: The proliferation of charging stations encourages more passengers to opt for EVs, thereby reducing carbon emissions and championing environmental preservation. ConclusionFollowing the deployment of the charging station at Valencia Airport, frequent travelers by plane expressed their satisfaction, stating, "With the installation of charging stations at the airport, my range anxiety is eliminated, knowing that my car will be fully charged upon my return from business trips. Additionally, I can conveniently utilize the fast chargers to recharge my car when dropping off family members at the airport." This project stands as a remarkable success, fulfilling user requirements, fostering sustainable development, enhancing company reputation, and, most importantly, offering valuable insights and experiences for future similar endeavors in EV charger projects.

Tongren mayor sees prosperous future for city

SHANGHAI, March 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- A news report from chinadaily.com.cn: Tourists visit Fanjing Mountain in Tongren, Guizhou province, on July 23. Fanjing Mountain was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2018. [Photo by Hu Panxue/For China Daily] Tongren in Guizhou province, known as the "City of Matcha", plans to organize more international forums related to its famous Fanjing Mountain and sports events, and diversify its matcha products to attract overseas tourists, Mayor Mu Rongkun said. "We will explore our potential in ecological resources, especially making good use of the fame of Fanjing Mountain to host international forums and events on ecology and biodiversity, to enhance international visibility," Mu said. More sporting events like the Fanjing Mountain Marathon and road cycling races are expected to develop into international events, he said, adding that the marathon will be run on Sunday. Fanjing Mountain, part of the Wuling Mountain range, was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2018 and is home to a conservation area, a nature reserve and a number of Buddhist temples. It has been considered a sacred site for centuries. Based on the rich natural and cultural resources, the tourism sector has grown into a pillar industry in the city. Tourist visits last year were up 9 percent on the figure in 2019, before the COVID-19 pandemic, with tourism spending up 14 percent. "Overseas tourists are mainly from Southeast Asian countries like Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore, and Hong Kong and Macao residents are also a major source," Mu said. "We will accelerate the official opening of Tongren Fenghuang Airport as an aviation port, and increase international flights to explore overseas markets." The airport was granted temporary permission to operate as an aviation port in November 2017, and started direct flights to Bangkok, Thailand, in August 2018, and flights to Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, in Vietnam, in 2019. Tongren also plans to cooperate with major domestic tourism agencies and online celebrities from markets such as the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area to promote the city's major attractions and expand its exposure, Mu said, adding it will improve tourism services and provide better guides for foreign tourists. The city has also initiated measures to provide specialty products to lure foreign guests and contribute to Guizhou's ambition to become a world-class tourist destination, he said. Netizens have dubbed Tongren the global super factory for matcha, with products such as matcha powder having been sold to over 40 foreign countries and regions. Sales last year exceeded 1,000 metric tons, Mu said. He said the city can produce 4,000 tons of fine matcha powder a year, ranking top in China and second in the world in terms of output. Matcha is made from fresh and tender tea leaves that have been cut and dried. With its unique flavor and medicinal properties, matcha and its derivatives have been widely applied in food and cosmetics. "We will upgrade the production of biological tea gardens for matcha, especially those in the core region around Fanjing Mountain, making the city a major primary raw material base for matcha in China," Mu said. "In addition, we will extend the industrial chain to provide diversified products from matcha, such as in drinks, chocolates, noodles and facial masks," he said, adding the city will also increase the industry's added value. According to a white paper released by the China Center for Information Industry Development a year ago, China has become the world's largest producer of matcha and the largest consumer of matcha products. It suggested that the matcha industry in China will continue to expand. By 2027, global matcha production is forecast to reach 12,000 tons, with China and Japan expected to remain the primary regions driving growth.

'Alive in Time' is Grand Seiko's new communications message, which expresses the brand's dynamism and commitment as a luxury watch manufacturer to continue innovating and pushing watchmaking boundaries, appealing to those who live in the present and continue to transform themselves. In the Sight area, guests were introduced to the movements that are the foundation of Grand Seiko's timepieces - the 9S Mechanical, the 9R Spring Drive and the 9F Quartz - with demonstrations of the assembly of the 9S and 9R movements by our outstanding master watchmakers, Mr. Satoshi Hiraga and Mr. Ikukiyo Komatsu, respectively. The highly acclaimed Kodo Constant-Force Tourbillon is Grand Seiko's first mechanical complication watch, which won the Chronometry prize at the 2022 Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Geneve, and was the highlight of the Sound area. During this auditory journey, guests experienced how the 340 parts are assembled together and thereafter, the pure sound of the 16-beat rhythm of the Kodo, or 'heartbeat' in Japanese, through an immersive space harmonized with light effects. In the Touch area, guests were invited to fully immerse themselves in an exploration of Grand Seiko's exquisite timepieces, each inspired by the serene beauty of nature. The interactive space gave guests the opportunity to try on and personally experience the precision, quality and beauty of each watch. Alongside the displays, a meticulously crafted Zen garden provided a tranquil backdrop for photography. The harmonious blend of nature inspiration and horological artistry encouraged a deeper connection to the moment, inviting each guest to not only see but feel the spirit of Grand Seiko.       Leading up to the Taste and Smell area of the exhibition were four showcases, each delving into the inspiration behind each timepiece amidst a presentation seamlessly synchronized with nature. The journey ended with a Japanese Hassun experience, specially curated in partnership with Chef Aeron of Kappou.

XtalPi to Present the Latest Progress of Its AI Cancer Vaccine Design Platform at AACR 2024
XtalPi to Present the Latest Progress of Its AI Cancer Vaccine Design Platform at AACR 2024

BEIJING and HONG KONG, March 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- XtalPi, a leading global technology company in integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics to advance the discovery of groundbreaking medicine and innovative materials, today announced it will present a poster showcasing the latest accomplishments of its AI-powered platform for designing cancer vaccines at the 2024 American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting. The meeting will take place from 5th – 10th April 2024 in San Diego, California, and XtalPi's poster will be included in the online Proceedings of the AACR. "We are excited to share the progress from our joint research initiative with CK Life Sciences, which leverages the innovative approach from our peptide R&D platform to design cancer vaccines with enhanced efficacy. Together, we are committed to overcoming conventional limitations in creating new therapeutics and deploying cutting-edge technologies to benefit patients worldwide," said Dr. Lipeng Lai, Co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer at XtalPi. POSTER PRESENTATION DETAILS Abstract 3525: Towards the efficient design of shared neoantigen peptide cancer vaccines using artificial intelligence Authors: Genwei Zhang, Jiewen Du, Xiangrui Gao, Tianyuan Wang, Zhenghui Wang, Qingxia Zhang, Tongren Liu, Dong Chen, Ruohan Zhu, Yalong Zhao, Samson Li, Melvin Toh, Lipeng Lai Session Date and Time: Monday, April 8(th), 1:30 PM - 5:00 PM Pacific Standard Time The accurate prediction of immunogenicity of cancer vaccines remains elusive. We developed new models that predict the probability of a given peptide derived from the protein of interest to be presented by MHC-I or MHC-II. For MHC-I antigen presentation model development, over 17 million entries in the dataset were collected from published literature and available databases, such as IEDB, with peptide lengths ranging from 8 to 11. The peptides were restricted to 150 unique MHC-I alleles. Similarly, ~4 million entries with peptide lengths ranging from 13 to 21 were collected for MHC-II antigen presentation model development, and the peptides were restricted to 19 unique MHC-II alleles. To develop advanced antigen presentation models, a language model was chosen as the backbone network, and contrastive learning was used to better discriminate the peptide-MHC match versus mismatch. Overall, both MHC-I and MHC-II presentation models were constructed with about 30 million parameters. To validate algorithm prediction accuracy and peptide immunogenicity, 28 predicted patentable peptides derived from mutated TP53 protein were synthesized and their binding to respective common HLA alleles was validated using surface plasmon resonance. We found that over 80% of the peptides displayed binding affinities stronger than the positive control, suggesting that AI significantly improves the design of neoantigen peptide vaccines. Our developed AI models surpassed the performance of state-of-the-art prediction algorithms, the latest versions of NetMHCpan and MixMHCpred, for both MHC-I and MHC-II antigen presentation.
