Rockefeller Foundation and Thailand International Cooperation Agency Celebrate 60 years of Partnership during AsiaXchange 2024

Published

on

BANGKOK, Oct. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The Rockefeller Foundation’s AsiaXchange 2024 commenced in Bangkok, today, bringing together over 250 stakeholders to accelerate Asia’s equitable green transformation. Over the course of three days, “Accelerating Asia’s equitable green transformation: Taking a systems approach for climate action” features practical discussions on harnessing a systems approach, driven by synergies between individuals, communities, governments, the private sector, and financiers. This convening also celebrates The Rockefeller Foundation and the Thailand International Cooperation Agency’s sixty-year partnership. The goal of this convening is to inspire, connect, and accelerate investment in climate solutions for the region.

During her opening remarks, Deepali Khanna, Vice President of The Rockefeller Foundation’s Asia Regional Office, emphasized the 111-year-old philanthropic organization’s ambition to bring a transformative shift in climate action. She said, “Asia has a unique opportunity to lead global climate action. With its ambitious commitments, extraordinary leaders, and advanced technologies, the region can build a green, inclusive, resilient future. We’re committed to helping our partners realize this vision by ensuring innovative climate solutions reach the frontline communities that need them most.”

Elizabeth Yee, Executive Vice President of Program Strategy at The Rockefeller Foundation, inaugurated the convening and set the stage by highlighting Asia’s rich opportunity landscape for positioning itself as the leader in climate action. She was joined by Ho Ren Hua, CEO of Thai Wah Public Company, and Albert Park, Chief Economist at the Asian Development Bank, during the opening session discussing Asia’s roadmap for balancing the region’s economic growth with environmental resilience.

Post the session, the Hon’ble Deputy Prime Minister, Prasert Chantararuangthong, The Government of Thailand, the Chief Guest, at the event, addressed the convening. He highlighted that Thailand, like many countries in the region, understands the urgency of climate action. The country has been advancing its climate action agenda under the climate law (currently under parliamentary review) and through its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by up to 40% with adequate international support by 2030, phase-out coal generated power by 2030, carbon neutrality by 2050; and net zero emissions by 2065. To achieve this mission, the Hon’ble Deputy Prime Minister, Prasert Chantararuangthong, Government of Thailand, said, “This is timely for all representatives from across all sectors in Thailand and the region to discuss practical solutions and how to finance them. AsiaXchange shows how philanthropic organizations can play an important role in supporting coordinated, high impact climate action. Thailand stands ready to work with both regional and global partners to share our sustainable development vision. Your expertise, resources, and networks will complement our national climate goals.”

He further highlighted the importance of digitization in shaping a sustainable economy and society. He said, “The role of leveraging data in climate resilient planning and in public and private investments is key. Thailand has laid down a 4.0 economic vision for digital transformation across all industries. An example is the establishment of Thailand National Digital Platform, an initiative designed to facilitate the collection, analysis and dissemination of climate related data, enabling informed policy decisions, and targeted interventions.”

The morning sessions also featured immersive discussions on green and resilient growth in Asia, led by Zou Ji, CEO of Energy Foundation China, Frank Rijsberman, Director General of Global Green Growth Institute, and Cassady Walters, Managing Director of Power & Climate at The Rockefeller Foundation.

A “Vox Populi” session brought together Asia’s formidable voices for COP 29, featuring insights from leaders like CK Mishra, Former Secretary of India’s Ministry of Environment, Forest & Climate Change, and Lin Yang, Deputy Executive Secretary of UNESCAP. The afternoon sessions covered a range of climate topics such as climate-informed health action, exploring ways to scale local investments through blended finance; and sharing experiences on net-zero journeys. The United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific led a compelling session on multiplying inclusive and sustainable business models. Plan International facilitated an important dialogue on youth voices in climate action across the Asia-Pacific region.

The first day concluded with a welcome dinner, celebrating The Rockefeller Foundation and the Thailand International Cooperation Agency’s sixty years of partnership. The Foundation, with over a century of work in Thailand, continues to lead transformative initiatives across the region through its Asia Regional Office in Bangkok.

Over the next two days, through a series of dialogues and discussions, stakeholders will dive deeper into how to drive climate efforts anchored on people-first approach & systemic collaboration and mobilize domestic, regional & international finance that works for Asia.

Published

on

By

HONG KONG, April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — SOLOWIN HOLDINGS (Nasdaq: AXG) (“SOLOWIN,” the “Company,” or “we”), a leading financial technology firm bridging traditional and digital assets, today announced certain preliminary, unaudited financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026. Driven by the rapid expansion of its digital asset tokenization, stablecoin infrastructure, and AI-powered services, the Company delivered exceptional top-line growth for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, as it advances its global framework compliance and institutional-grade service strategy.

The preliminary financial results described in this press release are unaudited and based on management’s current estimates of our results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026. These figures are subject to the completion of our customary year-end financial closing procedures and audit by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. No assurance can be given that final audited results will not differ materially from these preliminary estimates, and any such differences could be significant. We expect to file our audited financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in our Annual Report on Form 20-F, which is expected to be filed in July 2026.

Overall Performance

Revenue increased nearly tenfold year over year to between $27 million and $29 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026.

Net loss was in the range of $11 million to $13 million, reflecting continued investment in technology, compliance, and global business expansion.

Financial Condition

As of March 31, 2026, cash and cash equivalents increased to between $14 million and $16 million.

Net cash used in operating activities was in the range of $12 million to $14 million for the year ended March 31, 2026. The increase in receivables from customers was the primary driver of the cash used in operating activities during the current period.

Net cash provided by investing activities was in the range of $1 million to $3 million for the year ended March 31, 2026, mainly consisting of cash and bank balances arising from acquisition of subsidiaries, partly offset by purchases of short-term investments.

Net cash provided by financing activities increased to between $18 million and $20 million for the year ended March 31, 2026, mainly representing the proceeds from capital injections from investors.

Strategic Overview

Against a backdrop of accelerating institutional adoption, maturing global regulation, and deepening integration of AI and blockchain, SOLOWIN has further consolidated its position as a fully compliant, vertically integrated digital financial platform, with a clear dual-token strategy focused on Digital Asset Tokens and AI Tokens. The Company’s ecosystem spans stablecoin issuance and payments, asset tokenization, securities trading and asset management, as well as AI-powered services.

Management Commentary

Mr. Lok Ling Ngai, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of SOLOWIN, stated: “Fiscal 2026 marks a transformative year for SOLOWIN. Achieving tenfold revenue growth represents more than a financial milestone, it validates the strength of our dual-token strategy and underscores the accelerating global demand for compliant, institutional-grade digital asset infrastructure. We are uniquely positioned at the convergence of three structural shifts reshaping our industry: the advancement of regulatory frameworks, the rapid adoption of tokenization, and the integration of AI with blockchain technologies.”

“Guided by our mission ‘Mobilizing Tokens 24/7,’ we are building a secure, efficient, and fully regulated digital financial ecosystem. Over the past year, we have significantly strengthened and expanded our stablecoin and payment infrastructure, scaled our asset tokenization capabilities, and enhanced our AI-powered services. Together, these efforts reinforce and deepen our licensed platform advantages across Hong Kong, Bahrain, and other key global markets.”

“We see ourselves as more than a technology company — we are a trusted bridge connecting traditional finance and the decentralized economy. As global regulatory frameworks continue to mature and institutional adoption accelerates, we remain steadfast in our commitment to compliance, transparency, and responsible innovation. Our goal is to deliver sustainable, long-term value for our clients, partners, and shareholders — and help to power the future of finance.”
