Published

on

SHENZHEN, China, Oct. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — To deepen the connection with users, Hollyland celebrated its seventh anniversary with a special event called WE CONNECT. The event brought together 30 amazing creators from 17 different countries, including Simon Cade (@DSLRguide), Lucas and Dani (@casal.rec), Antonio Wimmer (@Antoniowimmer), Hossam Atef Farouk (@antikkahossam), and others. The event’s theme, WE CONNECT, starts from Hollyland’s mission—”Made to Inspire.” Hollyland believes that the connection between the brand and users lies in providing great filming tools that empower creativity. The 2024 WE CONNECT event aims to break down cultural and geographical barriers, bringing creators together from all over the world from diverse backgrounds to spark new ideas and inspire each other.

Through brand study tours and in-depth exchanges, Hollyland hopes to listen to the users’ true hearts and pinpoint the future direction of innovative products. During this multinational dialogue, creators engaged in meaningful conversations and collaborations on creative inspiration and industry trends, inspiring countless sparks of creativity. This fusion of thoughts aligns perfectly with Hollyland’s core mission—to enable creativity to bloom freely through high-quality equipment. This is not only a tribute to the achievements of the past seven years but also a guiding light for future development.

2024 WE CONNECT Event Highlights

Creators Gather: Exploring New Trends in Live Streaming

On the first day of the WE CONNECT event, all creators came together to explore new trends in live streaming. They were divided into three groups through a lottery to join the live-streaming challenge. The task was to set up a live streaming studio from scratch and try out Hollyland’s latest VenusLiv V2 live streaming camera to sell products. The VenusLiv V2 is easy to use and has a stable internet connection. Compared to ordinary cameras, it makes the live-streaming process more stable and efficient, helping streamers get started swiftly and adapt quickly to new live-streaming scenes.

During the live streaming challenge, the creators promoted the LARK M2 microphone in a live selling session. In today’s competitive live streaming market, grabbing the audience’s attention with unique and novel live streaming styles is crucial. The three challenge teams had spirited discussions on how to achieve this and finally completed the challenge through sitcom acting, reenacting classic movie scenes, and sharing professional product knowledge. Through doing a simulation scenario of live streaming, creators from different countries deeply experienced the unique charm and market potential of live selling. This process helped them quickly form strong teamwork relationships, break the ice of the first meeting, and spark creative inspiration. In addition, it set a fun and cooperative tone for this event, allowing creators to improve their skills and understanding of live-streaming equipment through enjoyable competitions.

Roundtable Discussion: Hot Topic in Tech and Innovation

All creators and Hollyland brand friends had a meaningful roundtable discussion. They shared unique and interesting insights, had extensive discussions on the hot topics of the film and television industry in their respective regions, exchanged new ideas for product innovation, and explored potential future partnership models. The main goal of this roundtable discussion was to create an open environment and encourage everyone to share their insights, ideas, and thoughts about the industry, product innovation, new technologies such as AI, and more. For example, on the topic of AI’s impact on the film industry, everyone expressed their opinions and acceptance of this industry trend. Anjas Maradita mentioned that he has been using AI to help with Instagram content creation for six months. According to Anjas, mastering the AI technology has made the content more creative and significantly improved efficiency.

This roundtable meeting was not only a great opportunity for Hollyland to receive some fantastic industry development ideas and product innovation suggestions but also a chance to promote a deep connection between Hollyland and its supporters. Through this discussion, they were able to explore closer ways of working together, strengthen their relationships, and set the stage for long-term development in the future. Hollyland doesn’t see these creators as partners but as friends and like-minded peers.

Hengdian Co-creation: Honoring the Film and TV Industry

On the second and third days of the WE CONNECT, creators gathered in Hengdian, China, also known as “China’s Hollywood“. They were divided into two teams to work on a film and television co-creation project focusing on traditional Chinese costume drama. The hardest part of this project was how to unite all creators from different cultural backgrounds and team up for the first time to complete tasks such as setting, shooting, and editing within just eight hours. Despite initial doubts, the professional creators managed to overcome challenges and work closely together to achieve incredible results. David, one of the creators, remarked, “It’s incredible how much we accomplished in just 6 hours of shooting.” Dani, another creator, added, “Producing a film in 6 hours was a challenge that helped me grow immensely, but the best part was, without a doubt, meeting and learning from so many creative minds from around the world.”

This co-creation project is a creative challenge and a tribute to China’s film and television industry and its splendid history. Hengdian, as an important birthplace of China’s film and television industry, has been the setting for countless classic works and creative dreams. Here, creators not only experienced the charm of shooting traditional costume dramas but also gained a deeper understanding of the unique charm and creative essence of Chinese film culture. Through thoughtful comparison of the script and in-depth exploration of the characters, the creators felt the efforts and enthusiasm of Chinese film and television workers in their artistic pursuit and cultural inheritance. Simon mentioned, “The work ethic and creative problem-solving I saw from both teams during the co-filming project has made me re-evaluate my attitude towards filmmaking. Respect the dedication, and it paid off with the results, too.”

Hollyland’s ecosystem products played an important role in this project, helping the team to easily cope with equipment challenges and save precious creation time. The Hollyland transmission system and intercom system significantly improved the communication efficiency of the crew and made the shooting process smoother. With the successful completion of the co-creation project, the creators were full of excitement and emotion, realizing that they had not only become a team but also creators who connected and achieved each other and jointly created unforgettable and precious memories of this journey. Upie said, “It was incredible to witness how you, the best professionals in your fields, set aside your ego and came together as a team to collaborate on the short film project. I’ve seen your amazing social media profiles, and it surprised me how you remained humble and down-to-earth throughout the process. Not many successful people can do that. I’m amazed at how Hollyland brought together such incredible individuals who deeply understand collaboration and humanity.”

Vlog Challenge: A Perfect Fusion of Chinese Culture and Creator Ideas

On the final day of the WE CONNECT event, all creators gathered in beautiful Hangzhou, a picturesque city known for its rich history, cultural charm, and stunning natural scenery. The last challenge of this journey was a Travel Vlog Challenge. While tasting Chinese food and scenery, the creators used Hollyland’s microphone and shooting equipment to record this journey, showing the unique style of Hangzhou City with real sound and pictures. They captured the essence of Hangzhou, from the tranquillity of West Lake to the bustling life in the ancient streets and alleys; everyone deeply connects through the lens and sound to create a special “cultural memoir”.

This challenge allows creators to immerse themselves in Chinese culture, get inspired, and form emotional connections. As WE CONNECT promotes, Hollyland is a welcoming space and always a harbor for global video creators. Hollyland is like a silent and solid partner in their creative journey, motivating them to keep exploring, capturing, and sharing their experiences.

Heartfelt Toast: Deep Connections Formed During this Event

The event left a profound impact on each creator, with many expressing their gratitude for the connections made. “Hollyland’s team left a lasting impact on me. They truly understand the philosophy of their product: connection. It’s not just about the product or technology—those evolve with time—but about the culture and essence behind it: creating connections. I choose products for their features, but I choose and trust brands for their vision, for seeing myself grow alongside them.” shared Upie. “Not only did we have an amazing team, but we also made lifelong friends. Thank you for every moment, guys! “Dani added.

Nigel reflected, “In a world where the pressure to create art through films, photos, and content grows even more, the Hollyland brand day taught me that I shouldn’t only connect with others and the brand that I love but also reconnect with myself again to keep the passion burning. ” Alberto emphasized, “Every moment we had confirmed to me the idea that boundaries are meant to be dismantled, that we are just a big community of amazing human beings, so thanks!” Shootguru emphasized, ” It wasn’t just about the work we did together but the connections we formed along the way. ” Corey remarked on the dedication displayed, saying, “Seeing how dedicated you were and how considerate you were to everyone was beautiful, and I’ve never seen a company go to such lengths to create an environment for us to succeed and connect in.”

Summarizing the 2024 WE CONNECT Event

The theme of WE CONNECT resonated throughout this four-day journey. Hollyland celebrated its brand anniversary while striving to establish deep connections with global content creators. Throughout the journey, Hollyland and its creators have built strong connections, established new communication bridges, and opened up exciting possibilities for future creative collaborations.

KuCoin Marks Ninth Anniversary at Tomorrowland Belgium, Honoring Nine Years of Industry Progress Beyond the Signal

Published

on

By

PROVIDENCIALES, Turks and Caicos Islands, July 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — On the day of its ninth anniversary, KuCoin welcomed global partners, institutional clients, ecosystem builders and media representatives to the “On Cloud 9 Skybox Experience,” an exclusive celebration at the Tomorrowland Belgium Skybox. Overlooking Tomorrowland’s iconic Mainstage, guests gathered throughout an unforgettable evening as world-renowned artists including Nicky Romero, Alok, Steve Angello and Hardwell delivered performances that brought together people from around the world. Against this backdrop of music, culture and global connection, KuCoin celebrated not only its own nine-year journey, but also the remarkable progress the digital asset industry has achieved together.

The experience formed part of KuCoin’s broader ninth-anniversary campaign, “Beyond the Signal,” reflecting the company’s belief that the industry’s future will be shaped not by short-term market movements alone, but by the trust, innovation and infrastructure that enable lasting progress. Bringing this vision to life in an elevated festival setting, the evening offered guests an opportunity to reflect on nine years of shared growth, collaboration and resilience, while looking ahead together to the next chapter of digital assets.

Against the backdrop of Tomorrowland’s iconic Mainstage, the exclusive Skybox experience with signature champagne rituals brought KuCoin and its guests together to reflect on and celebrate the milestones that have shaped its nine-year journey. From expanding access to digital assets and navigating multiple market cycles to strengthening security and compliance, supporting institutional participation, and advancing innovation across payments, AI and Web3, these milestones also reflected the broader evolution of the digital asset industry toward greater maturity.

The moment celebrated not only how far KuCoin has come, but also the progress the industry has made together. Over the past nine years, markets have risen and fallen, and technologies have continued to evolve. Yet lasting progress has always been driven by the builders, developers, partners and communities working together to create enduring value. That is the idea behind Beyond the Signal.

“Ninth anniversaries are often measured in years. We prefer to measure ours in trust,” said BC Wong, CEO of KuCoin. “The greatest achievement of the past nine years has not been our growth alone, but the confidence our users, partners and community have continued to place in us. Trust is the infrastructure that enables innovation, adoption and long-term progress. As we enter our next decade, we remain committed to building secure, compliant and trusted digital asset infrastructure together with our partners worldwide.”

The celebration also highlighted KuCoin’s expanding partnership with Tomorrowland as the festival’s Exclusive Crypto Exchange and Payments Partner for Tomorrowland Winter and Tomorrowland Belgium 2026–2028. Bringing together one of the world’s most influential cultural events with trusted digital infrastructure, the partnership reflects a shared vision of connecting people across borders and creating meaningful real-world experiences through technology, payments and community. For KuCoin, Tomorrowland is more than a global music festival—it represents the openness, diversity and global community that have always been at the heart of crypto.

Nine years ago, KuCoin set out to make digital assets accessible to more people around the world. Today, its mission has evolved beyond access to helping build the trusted infrastructure that will support the future of digital finance. Beyond music, beyond the celebration and beyond the signal, KuCoin’s ninth anniversary was not only a milestone for the company, but a celebration of how far the industry has come together—and a commitment to building what comes next.

Tesla Owns Nearly 1 in 5 AI Answers About EVs. New 5W Index Ranks the Top 25 EV Brands by AI Citation Share.

Published

on

By

EV charging networks — Electrify America, EVgo, ChargePoint — are nearly invisible inside AI answers despite operating the infrastructure the entire category depends on.

MIAMI, July 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — 5W AI Communications, the AI Communications Firm, today released the 5W AI Visibility Index — EV, ranking the top 25 EV brands by modeled AI citation share across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews. Tesla anchors the category at 18.4% — more than the next three brands combined. Rivian is second at 8.2%. Ford is third at 6.4%.

The Index is Volume 07 in 5W’s 2026 Consumer AI Visibility Index series. The full report is available at https://www.5wpr.com/research/ev-ai-visibility-index/.

More than a third of U.S. consumers now begin product research with an AI engine — not Google. For the EV category — where purchase consideration windows stretch six to twelve months and buyers cross-reference range, charging, ownership cost, and long-term reliability across dozens of sources — the answers the engines return are shaping the shortlist before a buyer walks into a dealership.

The Findings

Tesla dominates at 18.4% citation share — cited on virtually every consumer EV query across all five engines. Brand, product, and CEO overlap produce a citation profile no peer can match.Rivian (8.2%) is the dominant adventure-EV authority. The R1T and R1S anchor truck and SUV electric citation.Ford (6.4%) leads legacy automakers. The F-150 Lightning owns EV-truck queries; the Mach-E anchors EV-SUV comparisons.Lucid (4.8%) and Hyundai Ioniq (4.4%) complete the Tier 1 leaders. The Ioniq 5 and Ioniq 6 over-index against U.S. brand recognition.GM sits at #6 with 3.8% — despite scale — because Bolt, Lyriq, and Hummer EV are cited separately rather than as one GM-EV narrative. Ford consolidated its story. GM did not.Toyota (#17) and Honda (#18) are the two largest legacy automakers furthest behind in EV citation. The bZ4X, Solterra, and Prologue cite at rates far below what brand recognition would predict.EV charging networks are absent from the top 25. Electrify America, EVgo, and ChargePoint operate the infrastructure the entire category depends on — and have not built consumer-facing brand citation to match. The category is open.

“Every EV buyer starts inside a chatbox now. Tesla owns nearly one in five answers. The next three brands combined don’t match it. That’s a citation moat measured in AI — not TV budgets, not showroom count,” said Ronn Torossian, Founder and Chairman, 5W AI Communications. “GM is bigger than Rivian by every commercial metric and half its size in the answer. That gap costs sales. The charging networks are the biggest miss in the category — whoever builds the dominant ‘where should I charge’ answer anchors a multi-decade growth curve. Right now, none of them own it.”

The Five Engines Do Not Return Identical Answers

ChatGPT: Tesla, Rivian, Lucid, Ford, Hyundai dominate. Conservative and brand-anchored.Claude: Recurrent and CleanTechnica over-index. Data-source preference. Lighter on enthusiast brands.Perplexity: Reddit EV subreddits dominant. Out of Spec YouTube data heavily cited. Freshness-favored.Google AI Overviews: Tesla, InsideEVs, Edmunds, Kelley Blue Book dominate. Closest to a SERP-mirror.Gemini: YouTube EV creators dominate — Out of Spec, Munro Live, MKBHD at the highest rates.

Engine-aware strategy matters. A brand absent from one engine but present in another needs a different program than a brand absent across the board.

Methodology
Modeled directional estimates derived from publicly available data, observed retrieval patterns, structural signals, and the corresponding Everything-PR Citation Share Study — EV (Issue No. 07). Twenty-five brands, five engines, sixty-plus consumer-prompt query patterns. Not the output of logged query runs across millions of prompts. Intended as a strategic framework — not a definitive search-engine measurement.

The dominant outlets shaping EV citation are InsideEVs, Electrek, Recurrent, Edmunds EV, Car and Driver EV, CleanTechnica, and the Reddit-and-YouTube creator layer. Brand citation share is built primarily through presence inside that specific outlet set — and through Recurrent battery-data partnership for used-EV citation.
