Expanding Next-Generation Network Capabilities and Accelerating the Innovative Convergence of Communication, Computing, and AI Laying a Solid Foundation for 6G Development in Hong Kong

HONG KONG, Oct. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- China Mobile Hong Kong Company Limited ("China Mobile Hong Kong") announced that it has taken the lead in realising a U6GHz network, successfully completing network testing and validation at its Mong Kok flagship store and advancing the exploration of Upper 6GHz band applications in mobile networks. Implementing China Mobile Group's strategy of "strengthening the network foundation and full-stack innovation", China Mobile Hong Kong aims to enhance network capabilities through new frequency band applications, drive collaborative innovation between terminals and the wider industry, and lay a robust foundation for Hong Kong's future 6G development.

Strategic Early Deployment of New Spectrum to Build Momentum for a 6G Future
U6GHz, or the Upper 6GHz band, can provide continuous wide bandwidth and is a crucial spectrum resource supporting 5G-A and future 6G evolution. On 29 November 2024, Hong Kong completed its 6/7GHz spectrum auction, becoming the first region globally to auction this frequency band for public mobile services. China Mobile Hong Kong successfully bid for 100MHz of continuous spectrum and has made appropriate forward-looking deployments, advancing network capability validation and terminal adaptation to accumulate experience for future 6G commercialisation.

Expanding Network Capacity to Enable Smoother Smart Applications
The newly added U6GHz spectrum can be utilised synergistically with existing frequency bands. Through various combinations with current spectrums, it can achieve download speeds of 3Gbps. The increased availability of spectrum helps enhance data transmission capabilities, accommodating more simultaneous user connections, improving the internet experience in highly congested areas, and supporting high-definition video and large-capacity data transmission.

As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly integrated into production and daily life, the demand for data transmission from devices such as smart glasses and AI robots continues to rise. China Mobile Hong Kong will promote the synergistic development of U6GHz and intelligent computing services, enhance connectivity between terminals and intelligent computing platforms, and explore AI image analysis, immersive interactions, and industrial applications. This will allow smart services to better integrate into everyday life and corporate operations.

Aligning with Mainland China and Hong Kong Blueprints to Consolidate the Foundation of Digital-Intelligent Development
China Mobile Hong Kong will actively align with the Nation's "15th Five-Year Plan" and Hong Kong's first Five-Year Plan. Focusing on "AI+", computing infrastructure, and new industrialisation, the company will enhance communication and smart services through network upgrades to assist Hong Kong in building an international innovation and technology centre. Concurrently, China Mobile Hong Kong will collaborate with industry partners to accelerate the research, development, and testing of U6GHz products. By expanding hotspot coverage according to demand, it aims to drive the maturity of the industrial ecosystem and accelerate Hong Kong's 6G development. Looking ahead, China Mobile Hong Kong will continue to leverage its strengths as a central state-owned enterprise, providing high-quality digital infrastructure to serve Hong Kong and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, thereby fully contributing to the building of a cyber superpower and a digital China.

RAS AL KHAIMAH, UAE, Oct. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- XPENG (NYSE: XPEV, HKEX: 9868), a leading Physical AI company, today announced a native integration with Google Play, marking an expansion of its strategic collaboration with Google.

XPENG will offer Google Play within its cars. This direct integration allows XPENG to offer its signature AI-Powered cockpit experience while giving users seamless, phone-optional access to a breadth of automotive-optimized apps available through Google Play. The integration is scheduled to go live in early 2027.

Through Google Play, XPENG users will have access to a thriving global ecosystem, with hundreds of apps from more than 100 countries built for the car screen across music and podcasts, video streaming, navigation, charging and parking, news, gaming while parked, and everyday lifestyle services. Whether relaxing at a charging stop or on the move, drivers can enjoy global services, alongside apps tailored to individual markets.

And because developers continuously publish new apps and updates through Google Play, the in-car experience will continually evolve without requiring major full-vehicle OTA updates.

Built on Android™ Automotive OS, the integration works seamlessly alongside XPENG's intelligent cockpit capabilities, enabling drivers and passengers to use XPENG's multilingual AI-powered voice assistant to open and interact with downloaded apps.

Dr. Xianming Liu, Vice President of XPENG and Head of General Intelligence Center, said, "The best technology partnerships build momentum. Our work with Google Maps demonstrated what our two companies can achieve together to integrate global technologies into a distinctive intelligent vehicle experience. That success created the foundation for deeper collaboration. With Google Play, we are extending that approach from navigation to the wider digital ecosystem, giving our customers an experience that can continue to grow wherever XPENG goes."

Haris Ramic, Android for Cars Product Director at Google, said: "Thanks to a thriving developer community, our in-car app ecosystem continues to grow rapidly. Bringing Google Play to XPENG vehicles gives drivers even more choice to enjoy the entertainment and everyday apps they love right from their dashboard, with no phone required."

Looking ahead, the two companies will continue exploring further collaborations to enable apps to do even more in the car, making digital services an even more natural part of XPENG's driver and passenger experience.

The announcement represents the latest milestone in the collaboration between XPENG and Google. It follows XPENG's successful integration of Google Maps' Auto SDK, announced in July 2026, which introduced a refreshed navigation experience for XPENG drivers and provided foundational map capabilities for the company's advanced driver-assistance systems in overseas markets.

Further details on participating vehicle models, markets, and app availability, which may vary by vehicle model and applicable safety requirements, will be announced in due course.

The solution also supports retrofits of existing data centers. Integration with an Internet of Things platform enables system-wide energy savings and predictive maintenance.

The company's cloud-edge collaborative smart energy management and control system is built around a cloud-edge-device collaborative architecture. It uses AI algorithms for generation and load forecasting and optimized multi-energy dispatch, creating a closed loop of sensing, analysis, decision-making and execution. The system has achieved continuous off-grid operation in applications including oilfield microgrids, demonstrating reliable power supply and flexible regulation under extreme operating conditions.

Heavy-Duty Gas Turbine Solutions

Also on the opening day of CIIF, Shanghai Electric launched an AI-powered, end-to-end intelligent solution for heavy-duty gas turbines. The solution spans the full lifecycle from development to operation and maintenance, encompassing design simulation, flexible intelligent manufacturing, AI-based quality inspection, supply chain coordination and intelligent operation and maintenance.

Shanghai Electric exhibited its gas turbine control system for the first time. Developed entirely in-house, the system was commissioned at Shenzhen Energy's Ganlu project in June 2026. The company offers simple-cycle and combined-cycle gas-fired power solutions in the 75 MW to 800 MW classes. It has also completed China's first hydrogen-blending demonstration on an operational large F-class heavy-duty gas turbine.

Extending impact of mega event into local community

Promoting youth development and social inclusion

MACAO, Oct. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- As an important initiative of The NBA China Games 2026, the NBA Cares x Sands Cares Community Impact Week 2026 wrapped up Sunday, closing out an exciting week of community activities. Organized by Sands China and NBA Cares, the five-day programme fully embodied Sands China's commitment to serving the Macao community, leveraging the impact of a world-class sporting event to unite stakeholders from different backgrounds and regions to extend the event's benefits into the local community.

The Oct. 7-11 initiative received strong support and participation, engaging more than 2,900 individuals, including NBA legends, coaches and players; students from Macao, the Greater Bay Area (GBA) and Hainan province; members of Macao's social service organizations; senior executives from Las Vegas Sands and Sands China; and Sands Cares Ambassadors. Through a wide range of community engagement activities anchored by basketball, the Impact Week empowered local youth, fostered meaningful exchange across regions and cultures, and reinforced the values of inclusion and community cohesion.

Throughout the week, a distinguished lineup of NBA legends, players and coaches, together with prominent figures from the sporting world, visited local schools and community venues across Macao. Among them were NBA legends Ray Allen, Shawn Marion, Yao Ming, Mitch Richmond, Stephon Marbury, Cuttino Mobley and Chris Bosh; renowned Chinese basketball player Ding Yanyuhang, China women's basketball national team player Zhang Ziyu, and China short track speed skating Olympic gold medallist Wang Meng; and Sands Global Ambassador Sir David Beckham. Through close interactions with diverse community groups across Macao, they shared the values of sport and insights from their personal journeys.

Patrick Dumont, chairman of the board and chief executive officer of Las Vegas Sands Corp., and chairman of the board and non-executive director of Sands China Ltd., said: "With the successful conclusion of The NBA China Games 2026, we are delighted to have extended the positive impact of this world-class sporting event into the Macao community, creating valuable opportunities for people of various ages and backgrounds to connect and engage. This year's Impact Week brought together more than 2,900 students, community members and volunteers, who shared in the excitement and care inspired by the event, while enabling NBA players and legends to experience first-hand Macao's diverse and inclusive attributes. The programme demonstrated the power of sport to connect people, foster inclusion and inspire the next generation.

"We extend our sincere gratitude to the Macao SAR Government, NBA Cares, our community partners, and the Sands China team members and Sands Cares Ambassadors for their steadfast support and active involvement, which helped bring this meaningful Impact Week to life. Looking ahead, we will continue to support the Macao SAR Government's policy direction and draw upon Sands China's extensive experience and strengths in attracting and staging world-class events. By further enhancing the synergies generated through the 'Tourism+' initiative, we aspire to contribute fresh impetus to Macao's economic diversification."

On Wednesday, the first day of Impact Week, Youth Day brought together 200 young participants from the GBA and Hainan province, who took part in basketball training, interactive exchange activities and friendly matches under the guidance of NBA legends and coaches. Through sport, the event fostered connections and friendships among young people across the Greater Bay Area.

The second day, Tip-Off Day, attracted approximately 400 participants, including representatives from various organisations and local and international media outlets. Current players from the Dallas Mavericks and Houston Rockets joined local students in a basketball clinic and to assemble goodie bags, enabling participants to enhance their basketball skills while extending the spirit of caring into the community.

On Friday, School Day, an NBA legend and coaches visited Yuet Wah College, Macau, where they engaged with local students for a basketball clinic and a Chinese calligraphy experience. The event offered students a valuable opportunity to learn first-hand from world-class basketball professionals while promoting cultural exchange between East and West. Approximately 600 people participated in the day's activities.

On the fourth day, Health and Wellness Day, NBA legends joined executives from Las Vegas Sands and Sands China, together with social enterprise Happy Kitchen, a subsidiary of the Fuhong Society of Macau supported by Sands China, to prepare and distribute 200 boxed lunches to people in need in Macao. The initiative will provide a total of 1,500 meals to beneficiaries in the community. The day also featured wellness workshops aimed at promoting healthy lifestyles and well-being.

The Impact Week concluded with Sunday's Community Basketball Carnival, held at NBA HOUSE at The Venetian^® Macao and attended by a total of 200 participants, including NBA legends and coaches, athletes from Macau Special Olympics, members of local social service organisations and Sands Global Ambassador Sir David Beckham. Through a basketball clinic and family-oriented interactive experiences, the carnival promoted community engagement and social inclusion.

Throughout the week, around 200 Sands Cares Ambassadors actively participated in the various activities, reaching out to schools and communities alongside NBA players, coaches and representatives from different sectors to serve the community. Through their dedicated volunteer efforts, they helped ensure the smooth delivery of the week's charitable initiatives while exemplifying Sands China's commitment to giving back to society and serving the community.

In addition to the Impact Week, the expanded and enhanced NBA HOUSE Macao 2026, free and open to the public, was held over five days at Halls A and B of The Venetian Macao's Cotai Expo, where it was widely enjoyed by residents and visitors alike, attracting more than 70,000 visits. NBA HOUSE served as a basketball-themed festival that combined basketball, music and entertainment, fashion and retail, interactive technology, and specialty dining offerings, extending the excitement of the games beyond the court to a broader audience. In doing so, it expanded the reach of the event, enriching Macao's "Tourism + Sports" offerings, and further reinforcing Macao's position as a World Centre of Tourism and Leisure.

"NBA Cares x Sands Cares Community Impact Week 2026" was an initiative of Sands Cares, the global corporate citizenship programme of Sands China's parent company. As an important stakeholder in the Macao community, Sands China has actively fulfilled its corporate social responsibility for more than two decades. Through the programme, the company strives to connect with and serve the community, give back to society, and work alongside different sectors to build a more vibrant and inclusive Macao community.

PARIS, Oct. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Mr. He Xiaopeng, Chairman & CEO of XPeng Inc. ("XPENG" or the "Company," NYSE: XPEV; HKEX: 9868), a leading global Physical AI company, today called for deeper collaboration across the global automotive industry, as he became the first Chinese automotive CEO to deliver a keynote in the history of the Paris Automotive Summit.

Speaking to automotive industry leaders in Paris, Mr. He outlined how AI, electrification and smart technologies are reshaping the automotive industry, creating new opportunities for technology collaboration across the sector.

The theme of his keynote speech was "Navigating the AI Era: Open Collaboration for a Smarter Future," where he outlined XPENG AI Engineering, XPENG's strategy to combine its Physical AI technology with deeper ecosystem partnerships across Europe and globally.

He emphasized that no single manufacturer holds all the advantages required for the next generation of smart mobility. To accelerate this transition, XPENG is opening its in-house tech stack and engineering resources to key international partners.

Open Technology Collaboration for the AI Era: XPENG AI Engineering

XPENG's approach to collaboration is rooted in its evolution as a Physical AI company, with full-stack technologies spanning chips, models and applications across intelligent vehicles, robotaxis, humanoid robots and flying cars. In intelligent driving, XPENG highlighted NGP powered by VLA 2.0, designed to advance directly from L2 to L4 and deliver the same core capability across China and Europe, as the company prepares to bring advanced intelligent driving to global markets in 2027.

XPENG is also advancing the commercialization of its humanoid robot, IRON, with mass production targeted for late 2026, deliveries beginning in the first half of 2027, and a European rollout planned for the second half of 2027.

As AI expands into the physical world, XPENG believes industry transformation will be driven both from within and beyond automotive. To usher in this new era, XPENG is opening its proprietary technologies and engineering toolchains to global partners - spanning vehicle platforms, E/E architecture, batteries, e-drives, and modular innovations like the AI BOX, Turing AI chip, and Turing physical world foundation model.

Through XPENG AI Engineering, the company is pursuing a model built around complementary strengths, flexible collaboration and independent innovation, enabling partners to co-develop differentiated products while building their own technology capabilities over time.

As a proven example of this mutually beneficial approach, Mr. He highlighted XPENG's strategic collaboration with Volkswagen Group, which brings together XPENG's intelligent-driving and software capabilities with Volkswagen's vehicle engineering and testing expertise.

This latest development builds on XPENG's continued investment in technology and talent. In the first half of 2026, XPENG invested approximately €770 million in R&D.

"Partnership starts with trust, and after trust comes openness," said Mr. He. "We welcome global partners to work with us, learn from each other and bring our strengths together. To bring technology to life and build the future together."

In Europe, For Europe, With Europe

Mr. He also reinforced XPENG's long-term "In Europe, For Europe, With Europe" commitment, centered on producing in Europe, designing for European users and partnering with the region's industrial ecosystem.

XPENG has put four models into production in Europe within one year, including the G6, G9, P7+ and the latest G9L. Its European R&D center serves as a hub for EU homologation and certification, language and interaction localization, intelligent-driving validation, European chassis and handling tuning, and charging-network integration.

XPENG continues to deepen collaboration across Europe's automotive and technology ecosystem, working with local partners as it expands its capabilities in the region.

成都2026年10月13日 /美通社/ -- 2026年歐洲腫瘤內科學會(ESMO)大會將於10月23日至27日在西班牙馬德里舉行。四川科倫博泰生物醫藥股份有限公司(「科倫博泰」或「公司」，6990.HK)將於此次大會上公佈多項臨床研究成果，涵蓋靶向人滋養細胞表面抗原2(TROP2)的抗體偶聯藥物(ADC)蘆康沙妥珠單抗(sac-TMT，亦稱SKB264/MK-2870)(佳泰萊^®)及其他ADC藥物的相關數據。

其中，蘆康沙妥珠單抗(sac-TMT)多項研究成果入選口頭報告，包括OptiTROP-Lung04和OptiTROP-Lung06 III期研究均入選最新突破性摘要(LBA)及「轉移性非小細胞肺癌」專場，並將於同一時段以優選口頭報告(Proffered paper)形式發佈；此外，由默沙東^[1]主導開展的全球性關鍵III期TroFuse-005試驗數據也將首次公佈，並將在ESMO主席論壇(Presidential Symposium)重點展示。

上述研究及科倫博泰其他研究的摘要標題已於ESMO官方網站公佈，詳情如下：

關於蘆康沙妥珠單抗(sac-TMT)(佳泰萊^®)

作為公司的核心產品，蘆康沙妥珠單抗(sac-TMT)是一款公司擁有自主知識產權的新型TROP2 ADC，針對NSCLC、乳腺癌(BC)、胃癌(GC)、婦科腫瘤及泌尿生殖系統腫瘤等晚期實體瘤。蘆康沙妥珠單抗(sac-TMT)採用獨特雙功能連接子開發而成。該連接子一方面通過與抗TROP2單克隆抗體沙妥珠單抗形成不可逆結合，另一方面在溶酶體中可從貝洛替康衍生物拓撲異構酶I抑制劑有效載荷(KL610023) pH敏感裂解，從而最大限度將有效載荷遞送至腫瘤細胞，藥物抗體比(DAR)達到7.4。蘆康沙妥珠單抗(sac-TMT)通過重組抗TROP2人源化單克隆抗體特異性識別腫瘤細胞表面的TROP2，其後被腫瘤細胞內吞併於細胞內釋放有效載荷KL610023。KL610023可誘導腫瘤細胞DNA損傷，進而導致細胞週期阻滯及細胞凋亡。此外，其亦於腫瘤微環境中釋放KL610023。鑒於KL610023具有細胞膜滲透性，其可實現旁觀者效應，即殺死鄰近的腫瘤細胞。

於2022年5月，公司授予默沙東(美國新澤西州羅威市默克公司的商號)在大中華區(包括中國內地、香港、澳門及台灣)以外的所有地區開發、使用、製造及商業化蘆康沙妥珠單抗(sac-TMT)的獨家權利。

截至目前，蘆康沙妥珠單抗(sac-TMT)的4項適應症已於中國獲批上市，分別用於：1)既往至少接受過2種系統治療(其中至少1種治療針對晚期或轉移性階段)的不可切除的局部晚期或轉移性三陰性乳腺癌(TNBC)；2)經表皮生長因子受體-酪氨酸激酶抑制劑(EGFR-TKI)和含鉑化療治療後進展的EGFR基因突變陽性的局部晚期或轉移性非鱗狀NSCLC；3)經EGFR-TKI治療後進展的EGFR基因突變陽性的局部晚期或轉移性非鱗狀NSCLC；4)既往接受過內分泌治療且在晚期疾病階段接受過至少一線化療的不可切除或轉移性的激素受體陽性(HR+)且人類表皮生長因子受體2陰性(HER2-) (免疫組織化學(IHC) 0、IHC 1+或IHC 2+/原位雜交(ISH)-) BC；其中前2項適應症已經被納入醫保範圍，將為更多乳腺癌和非小細胞肺癌患者帶來臨床獲益。此外，蘆康沙妥珠單抗(sac-TMT)已獲國家藥品監督管理局(NMPA)授予6項突破性療法認定(BTD)。

蘆康沙妥珠單抗(sac-TMT)是全球首個在肺癌適應症獲批上市的TROP2 ADC藥物。蘆康沙妥珠單抗(sac-TMT)的兩項新增適應症上市申請已獲NMPA受理，分別用於：1)聯合帕博利珠單抗一線治療程序性細胞死亡配體1(PD-L1)腫瘤比例分數(TPS)≥1%的EGFR基因突變陰性和間變性淋巴瘤激酶(ALK)陰性的局部晚期或轉移性NSCLC；2)PD-L1綜合陽性評分(CPS)<10或早期階段接受過程序性細胞死亡蛋白1(PD-1)/PD-L1抑制劑的復發或轉移性TNBC的一線治療，以上兩項申請均被納入優先審評審批程序。目前，科倫博泰已在中國開展9項註冊性臨床研究。默沙東已啟動18項正在進行的蘆康沙妥珠單抗(sac-TMT)作為單藥療法或聯合帕博利珠單抗或其他抗癌藥物用於多種類型癌症的全球性III期臨床研究(這些研究由默沙東申辦並主導)。

關於SKB500

SKB500是公司利用OptiDC^TM平台技術自主研發的一款靶向B7-H3的ADC藥物，採用定點可裂解連接子並搭載強效的拓撲異構酶I抑制劑。在臨床I期研究中，SKB500顯示出良好的療效和安全窗，擬用於治療多種晚期實體瘤。目前，SKB500治療廣泛期小細胞肺癌(ES-SCLC)以及治療晚期食管鱗狀細胞癌(ESCC)等的II期研究正在中國進行中。
