Luo Zhaohui’s proposal focuses on ‘small yet smart’ programs

Published

on

BEIJING , March 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — A news report from chinadaily.com.cn:

Luo Zhaohui, chairman of the China International Development Cooperation Agency, is a keen advocate of Luban Workshop — the vocational education brand that China runs to offer skills training, Mandarin study and job opportunities in foreign countries.

Luo, who is also a member of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, said his proposal to the CPPCC National Committee’s annual session this year is about promoting the construction of the Luban Workshops.

So far, China has established 27 such workshops in 23 countries, and Luban — the Chinese engineering master who lived 2,500 years ago — is now becoming known by more people overseas.

“The workshops have trained a large number of professional and technical talents for those countries, and have become a golden symbol of China’s ‘small yet smart’ program,” Luo said.

In the future, the agency, which is China’s leading agency focused on foreign aid, will continue to increase the assistance provided by such programs, he added.

Sponsorship extends Hexaware’s association with franchise cricket to Europe

MUMBAI, India, Sept. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Hexaware Technologies (NSE: HEXT), an AI-first digital and IT services company, today announced its sponsorship of Dublin Guardians as an Official Partner for the team in the inaugural season of the European T20 Premier League (ETPL).

The sponsorship comes as franchise cricket establishes a new foothold in Europe, where Hexaware has operations and continues to build local teams and capabilities across the region. The first ICC-sanctioned ETPL in mainland Europe opened on August 26 with six city-based teams from Ireland, Scotland, and the Netherlands. The league also gives European players more opportunities to compete at a professional level alongside established international cricketers.

Dublin Guardians represents the Irish capital in the competition. Rahul Dravid, former India captain and coach of the 2024 T20 World Cup-winning side, is among the franchise owners. The team is captained and mentored by Ravichandran Ashwin, India’s second-highest wicket-taker in Test cricket.

“The opportunity to support local talent is an important part of what appealed to us,” said Parameshwaran Iyer, Executive Vice President, Head – UK and Europe, Hexaware. “The ETPL can give more players across Europe the chance to compete at a higher level and help strengthen the game from the grassroots up. We’re pleased to support Dublin Guardians as part of that effort.”

“I’m delighted to welcome Hexaware as a partner of the Dublin Guardians for our inaugural season. It’s exciting to have organisations like Hexaware that share our belief in teamwork, ambition, and excellence alongside us as we begin this journey,” said Rahul Dravid, Chairman, Dublin Guardians.

“Hexaware is a strong addition to the Dublin Guardians journey. Its focus on building local capability in the markets where it operates connects well with what we’re trying to do here,” said Ajit Ravindran, CEO, Dublin Guardians. “For us, that means creating more opportunities for local players to develop and compete at a higher level.”

The sponsorship follows Hexaware’s association with the San Francisco Unicorns in Major League Cricket in the United States, which marked the company’s first association with franchise cricket.

The ETPL is being organized with Cricket Ireland, Cricket Scotland, and the Royal Dutch Cricket Association. The first season runs until September 20, 2026. The tournament began in the Netherlands and moves to Malahide in Dublin on September 9.

Media Advisory – Marsh and Resilience launch Cyber Protect in Asia to help organizations strengthen cyber resilience

Published

on

By

SINGAPORE, Sept. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Marsh and Resilience today announced the launch of Cyber Protect in Asia. An innovative offering that helps clients respond to emerging cyber threats before they become losses. Available exclusively through Marsh in Asia, Cyber Protect combines Marsh’s expertise in cyber insurance placement with Resilience’s Risk Operations Center (ROC), a 24/7 proactive cyber risk monitoring and detection service included as a core part of the Cyber Protect Program at no additional cost to clients.

Cyber Protect is designed to help clients identify critical vulnerabilities earlier and improve their risk profile by remediating risks likely to cause financial loss. The offering is available to organizations that purchase cyber insurance brokered by Marsh and is available across Asia, excluding China.

This offering combines:

Marsh’s expertise in cyber insurance placement, backed by deep claims experience across the region.

24/7, AI-powered monitoring and proactive threat hunting service that continuously scans a policyholder’s external-facing infrastructure to surface critical vulnerabilities and exposures before they can be exploited.

Human-validated alerts that filter out noise, so clients see only the risks that warrant action, with clear remediation guidance to enable security teams to close gaps faster and with more confidence.

A layer that works alongside existing security controls, with no software installation or internal system access required.

The launch comes as organizations across Asia face mounting pressure from AI-driven cyber threats. According to Marsh’s Cyber Buyer Study, only 50% of Asia-based organizations are confident in their cyber risk management and mitigation initiatives, the lowest level of confidence globally and well below the worldwide average of 72%. Almost three in 10 cyber and social engineering attacks globally target Asia, underscoring the need for stronger cyber resilience and earlier threat detection.

“As cyber threats continue to accelerate, prevention alone is no longer sufficient. Managing cyber risk today demands both the ability to detect and respond to threats early, and the financial protection to recover when the inevitable incident occurs,” said Sean Letz, Cyber Leader, Marsh Asia. “Cyber Protect helps clients detect critical vulnerabilities earlier, take action faster, and strengthen their risk profile, supporting stronger resilience, improved insurability, and greater confidence in recovery.”

“Asia represents one of the most important developing cyber risk markets in the world, and we are proud to be bringing this unique solution to market with Marsh,” said Mario Vitale, President of Resilience. “We built Resilience around a single belief: that the highest value we can deliver is a loss that never happens. Our platform continuously hunts for threats across clients’ external attack surfaces, prioritizing the vulnerabilities most likely to cause financial harm before an attacker can act. Asian businesses now have access to that capability — together with the expertise of one of the world’s most trusted insurance partners.”

About Marsh

Marsh (NYSE: MRSH) is a global leader in risk, reinsurance and capital, people and investments, and management consulting, advising clients in 130 countries. With annual revenue of $27 billion and more than 95,000 colleagues, Marsh helps build the confidence to thrive through the power of perspective.

About Resilience

Resilience helps organizations become cyber resilient to material losses by staying ahead of bad actors. Founded by experts from across the highest tiers of the US military and intelligence communities – and built by prominent leaders and innovators from the cybersecurity, technology, and insurance industries – Resilience is the world’s first cyber risk company that offers risk quantification software, cybersecurity experts, and highly rated insurance in solutions purpose-built for large and middle-market organizations.

Resilience’s Risk Operations Center (ROC) is an AI-powered monitoring service that actively hunts for zero-day vulnerabilities and scans a policyholder’s external-facing infrastructure for known vulnerabilities, exposed high-risk remote services, insecure remote access points, and dark web exposure. The ROC cuts through the noise of traditional security alerts, providing actionable remediation advice to stop threats before they become incidents, and losses.  Each year, the ROC screens out roughly 95% of known vulnerabilities as low risk, escalating only the small number that pose a real, exploitable threat, and clients have historically remediated 77% of those escalations.

Trina Storage to Launch Next-Generation Elementa + Electra Solution at Middle East Energy 2026

Published

By

DUBAI, UAE, Sept. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Trina Storage, a global leader in energy storage solutions and a business unit of Trinasolar, announced its participation in Middle East Energy 2026, taking place from 1–3 September at Dubai World Trade Centre, where it will officially launch and showcase its latest Elementa + Electra energy storage solution for the first time in the Middle East at the Storage Pavilion, Booth Z3.F51.

The Elementa + Electra is an integrated DC + AC utility-scale energy storage solution that combines the latest DC battery system, Elementa 3, with a 6.25 MWh capacity, and the 13.8 MVA AC platform Electra. By integrating the DC battery system and AC platform, the solution helps simplify system integration and streamline deployment for large-scale energy storage projects. With system configurations ranging from 2 to 8 hours, Elementa + Electra provides greater flexibility to meet diverse project requirements and application needs.

As countries across the Middle East and Africa continue to increase renewable energy capacity and progress towards net-zero goals, energy storage is becoming increasingly important to the region’s power systems. Battery energy storage can help balance renewable generation, strengthen grid stability and provide greater flexibility as more solar and other renewable energy sources are connected to the grid.

“The next phase of energy storage in the Middle East and Africa will be defined by the ability to deploy at scale while meeting increasingly demanding technical and operational requirements,” said Jack Chen, Head of Energy Storage, MEA Region at Trinasolar. “For Trina Storage, the focus is on providing utilities and developers with integrated solutions that combine performance, reliability and flexibility to support the long-term development of energy storage across the region.”

The solution delivers up to 50MWh of storage capacity and 13.8MVA of AC output, using 587Ah high-energy-density battery cells and achieving up to 96% full-chain system efficiency. Its fast-response power conversion capabilities include a 10ms full-power response, together with grid-forming and black-start functionality to support increasingly evolving grid requirements.

Safety and project delivery are also central to the system design. Elementa + Electra incorporates advanced thermal protection and multi-layer electrical safeguards, including a 120-minute fire resistance rating and six-fold electrical protection. Containerised transportation across the DC and AC sides, combined with factory-level testing, can also reduce on-site commissioning time by up to 50%, helping accelerate project deployment.
