HIF Global signs collaboration agreement with Airbus for Sustainable Aviation Fuels

Agreement paves the way for e-Fuels, made from renewable electricity, water, and recycled carbon dioxide, to reduce net CO2 emissions in the aviation sector

FARNBOROUGH, UK, July 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — HIF Global has announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding with Airbus to advance the global development of e-Fuels for aviation (“e-Sustainable Aviation Fuel” or “e-SAF”) via the methanol to jet fuel (“MTJ”) pathway. The MoU provides a framework for negotiation of definitive agreements in relation to four key workstreams: technical, project development, commercial and advocacy.

The collaboration was signed at the Farnborough Air Show in England, one of the most prestigious global aerospace, aviation and defense industry fairs. 

Clara Bowman, Chief Operating Officer of HIF Global, said, “The International Energy Agency projects that aviation activity will double from 2022 levels by 20301. We are therefore in a global race to supply and scale up sustainable fuels to aviation, the hardest to abate of all the transportation sectors. Collaboration between HIF and Airbus will help accelerate the airline sector’s adoption of e-SAF and facilitate the industry’s transition to net zero.”

e-SAF is a type of Sustainable Aviation Fuel made by combining recycled CO₂ and green hydrogen produced with renewable electricity. e-SAF is a drop-in fuel which can be used in existing airplanes without any modifications to their engines. HIF Global is designing e-SAF production facilities based on methanol to jet fuel synthesis, also called the MtJ pathway.

In May 2023, HIF Global announced agreements with Johnson Matthey and Honeywell UOP to conduct preliminary engineering for HIF’s first Sustainable Aviation Fuel facility in the United States. 

About HIF Global

HIF Global is the world’s leading e-Fuels company, developing projects worldwide to convert renewable energy into near carbon neutral e-Fuels that can be utilized in existing engines. The name HIF represents the mission of the company: to provide Highly Innovative Fuels to make decarbonization of the planet possible. HIF is producing e-Fuels today at its HIF Haru Oni e-Fuels facility in southern Chile and is developing commercial-scale e-Fuels facilities in Texas, Uruguay, Australia, and Chile.

BERLIN, Sept. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — OneOdio concluded its showcase at IFA 2026, held from September 4–8 in Berlin. At Hall 8.2, Booth 217, the professional audio brand welcomed visitors, DJs, creators, and industry professionals for hands-on product experiences, live DJ performances, and interactive activities.

This year’s showcase highlighted OneOdio’s focus on professional audio and versatile listening experiences, with Studio Max 2 and A70 Gen 2 taking center stage.

Taiwan-Founded Asia Talent Platform Cake Draws 20,000+ Job Seekers as AI and Cross-Border Careers Take Center Stage

Published

on

By

TAIPEI, Sept. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Cake, a Taiwan-founded regional talent platform in Asia, hosted the Cake 2026 Career Festival on September 12 at Taipei World Trade Center, bringing together more than 150 leading international employers and technology companies and nearly 6,000 job opportunities. The event attracted over 20,000 job seekers for on-site recruitment and networking.

Nearly 70% of registered attendees had more than three years of work experience, while software and hardware engineering professionals together accounted for 42% of registrants, underscoring the event’s strong appeal among experienced technology talent.

Held under the theme “Re-skill in AI,” this year’s Career Festival also introduced Cake’s first AI Career Fair Guide, alongside a broader suite of AI-powered career services designed to connect online career exploration and preparation with in-person employer engagement.

AI Hiring Expands Across Industries as Cross-Border Careers Gain Momentum

One of the clearest hiring trends at this year’s event was the expansion of AI-related hiring across a wider range of industries and applications. Participating employers collectively offered more than 100 AI-related openings.

Viewed through NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang’s “AI Five-Layer Cake” framework, nearly 20 participating companies represented key parts of the AI ecosystem, spanning power and energy, chips and hardware, AI infrastructure, and applications. These included Schneider Electric, Nanya Technology, Vertiv, and Health2Sync.

The range of career opportunities is also expanding into emerging industries and overseas markets. The Taiwan Space Agency joined the event alongside the Industrial Development Administration’s aerospace supply chain and communications talent initiative. Japanese payments company PayPay Corporation recruited in Taiwan for the first time.

Employers Compete for Talent Through Higher Pay and Long-Term Development

As competition for talent intensifies, employers are differentiating their strategies across compensation, development programs, and early-career hiring.

More than 100 opportunities at the event offered starting annual compensation above NT$1 million. Singapore-based Titansoft offered senior software engineering roles paying up to NT$4 million per year.

Meanwhile, Delta Electronics subsidiary Cyntec introduced its Global Manufacturing High-Potential Talent Program, with annual salaries starting at NT$1.2 million for roles across manufacturing, equipment, engineering, technical functions, and quality assurance.

At the early-career level, Taiwan Mobile opened more than 20 internship roles spanning AI training data validation, cybersecurity, sustainability, and video marketing.

Together, these initiatives reflect a shift from filling individual vacancies toward building longer-term talent pipelines across different stages of a professional’s career.

Cake Founder and CEO Trantor Liu said: “For companies, talent competition is no longer just about finding people who already have AI skills. It is also about how to develop talent over the long term, across different stages of their careers. For professionals, true Re-skill in AI is not a one-time skills upgrade, but a continuous evolution throughout their careers.”

Cake Connects AI-Powered Career Services Into One Job Search Journey

Cake has integrated AI across multiple stages of the job search journey. Its new AI Career Fair Guide recommends relevant employers, job openings, and booths based on a candidate’s experience level, target industries, and job preferences.

The service connects with Cake AI, which provides AI-powered career strategy, job analysis, and resume review to help users clarify their career direction, better understand opportunities, and strengthen their applications. On-site services also included AI-generated professional headshots.

By connecting online exploration, job-search preparation, and in-person employer engagement, Cake is turning Re-skill in AI into a continuous career process rather than a one-time skills upgrade.
