Recognized for its user-friendly system and delivering high-quality AV transmission with ultra-low latency across multiple formats and resolutions

TAIPEI, Oct. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — ATEN International, a leading provider of AV/IT connectivity and management solutions, announced today that its renowned video over IP solution, the Networked AV Series, has won the Good Design Award 2024, one of the world’s most prestigious product design accolades. The Networked AV Series seamlessly integrates into existing IP-based networks to enhance connectivity and efficiency in ground service environments through centralized management, flexible scalability, and high-quality 4K video resolution. This solution is ideal for large-scale scenarios, such as creative video walls or digital signage in department stores, airports, and smart buildings, where it can streamline operations and provide seamless access to real-time data in stunning 4K resolution.  

The 2024 judging committee praised ATEN’s latest innovation with the following statement: “As a system that enables real-time controlling and monitoring of network AV, this product is meaningful for both travelers and operating staff at airports. It can be evaluated as a user-friendly system that provides high-quality AV transmission with ultra-low latency in various formats and resolutions. The robust hardware design not only conveys the interface, such as connectors, but also features dynamic graphical displays. With the introduction of large-scale digital signage and video walls stretching several hundred meters, the usage environment is likely to expand significantly in the future.”

ATEN will debut two brand-new Video Extenders in its Networked AV Series at the end of Q4 2024. The first is the VE8662 True 4K HDMI H.265 over IP Transceiver with PoE, featuring an all-in-one transceiver design with LCM displays for simple configuration and a user-friendly design, making installation and identification effortless and reducing the hassle of stocking for users. Additionally, the VE8662 is equipped with an LCM panel that provides complete product information, including ID number, IP address, ambient temperature, and firmware version, making maintenance easier for users. The VE8662 sets a new standard for video transmission by utilizing H.265 compression, allowing it to transmit and extend visually lossless True 4K images (4K60 4:4:4, HDCP 2.2) over standard 10/100M networks. It supports flexible switching and duplication of multiple input sources and output displays. Compared to other brands that use traditional 1G or 10G networks, the VE8662 expands AV over IP architecture, helping to reduce network switch costs and SI’s operational expenses.

The second product is the VE8962 True 4K HDMI over IP Transmitter/Receiver with PoE, which supports True 4K resolution and incorporates multiple redundancy mechanisms, including power redundancy (PC & PoE), network transmission redundancy (fiber & copper), and operational redundancy. These features ensure smooth, reliable long-term system operation and uninterrupted transmission.

“ATEN has won the Good Design Award for four consecutive years,” says Nicholas Lin, Senior Vice President of ATEN. “ATEN relentlessly pursues excellence in innovation to meet consumer demand and even drive global transformation.”

“ATEN’s Networked AV series is a key solution for scenarios requiring high-resolution transmission with low latency. It enables the distribution and installation of video over IP extenders at any location, providing comprehensive real-time information for quick, informed decisions. The series delivers an immersive audiovisual experience for smart buildings by transmitting visually lossless 4K AV signals with low latency over long distances via a standard Gigabit network. It is an effective and user-friendly solution that directly addresses the challenges system integrators face when deploying AV over IP.” says Nicholas Lin.

Established in 1957, the Good Design Award is globally recognized by its ‘G-Mark,’ a symbol of excellence in design across various fields such as industrial products, architecture, software, systems, and services.

By

Leshines is the supply chain solution provider of Lenovo Group, which ranks among the top ten on Gartner’s prestigious Top 25 supply chain list.The move reinforces ewpartners’ and Leshine’s commitment to fostering local industrial growth and empowering enterprises in Saudi Arabia.

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, Nov. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — ewpartners (formerly eWTP Arabia Capital), the first international investment firm to establish a Saudi-Asia cross border platform, has announced a USD $50 million investment in Leshines, the supply chain solutions arm of Chinese multinational tech company Lenovo at The Future Investment Initiative (FII), a premier global platform that drives transformative investments and fosters international partnerships for sustainable economic growth.

The investment accelerates the localization of Leshines capabilities in Saudi Arabia, further strengthening the Kingdom’s position as a vital player in sustainable global trade networks and supply chain operations.

Five months ago, Lenovo and PIF-backed company Alat announced a strategic collaboration, including a proposed US$2 billion investment. Today, this partnership is set to advance to the next step.

Leshines is also exploring the option of entering the KSA-Sino Logistics Special Economic Zone at King Salman International Airport in Riyadh, an initiative which was announced by the Saudi Ministry of Transport and Logistics earlier this month. Managed by ewpartners, the Zone will cover a total area of 4 square kilometres and consist of a logistics industrial park, an international commercial and business park, and corresponding living space and facilities. It will enable international companies to manufacture locally in Saudi and then springboard their distribution to other markets worldwide. It is expected to attract over 3,000 wholesalers and retailers and around 200 light industrial manufacturers from China and Asia.

Jerry Li, Founder and Managing Partner at ewpartners said the following on the announcement:

“This investment is a significant step towards building the future of Saudi Arabia that we all envision, and we are actively working to establish this goal. Our investment in Leshines underscores our commitment to this project and our determination to foster local industrial growth and the development of Saudi enterprises. By partnering with Leshines to bring advanced supply chain solutions to Saudi Arabia and the MENA markets, we further assist Chinese companies in exploring localized production and empower local enterprises, aligning with the Kingdom’s Vision 2030.”

Alan Zhou, COO of Leshines, commented on the announcement:

As Lenovo’s smart supply chain solution platform, Leshines will take this opportunity to establish roots in Saudi Arabia, focusing on the MENA region, and build the foundational strategic capabilities of an advanced digital supply chain. As a globally leading strategic fund, ewpartners’ strategic resources and unique advantages in KSA, the Middle East, and emerging markets perfectly match Leshines’ strategic vision and development roadmap. With solid support and a strong partnership with ewpartners, we are confident that Saudi Arabia will become an important node in the Smart Supply Chain Platform, contributing to the Kingdom’s Vision 2030.

The investment in Leshines marks the first transaction for ewpartners Fund II. Amid the growing synergy between China and the Middle East, ewpartners’ investment model has garnered recognition from key stakeholders in the region. Supported by Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund, ewpartners has also recently secured commitments from other GCC sovereign wealth funds, including USD 150 million from the Oman Investment Authority.

Two Prime Lending surpasses $1 billion in loan volume and broadens product line to include both unsecured BTC and secured altcoin lending options.

BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS, Nov. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Two Prime Lending Limited, a BVI-registered leading provider of debt financing for digital assets, has surpassed $1 billion in total loan volume just nine months after entering the market. With a primary focus on secured lending against major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), the company has recently expanded its offerings to include unsecured BTC and secured loans against top altcoins.

The achievement underscores Two Prime Lending’s commitment to client security, industry-leading rates, and a lending model that prioritizes transparency and client safeguards.

The achievement underscores Two Prime Lending’s commitment to client security, industry-leading rates, and a lending model that prioritizes transparency and client safeguards. In contrast to other failed industry models, Two Prime Lending does not trade or rehypothecate assets. Instead, collateral funds are securely held in bankruptcy-remote custody, providing clients with unmatched peace of mind. Lending, the company emphasizes, should be incredibly boring – a stance that has bolstered confidence among clients and stakeholders alike.

“It’s been amazing to see the demand in the market for lending return,” said Alexander Blume, company spokesperson. “We are just at the beginning of this lending renaissance, with trusted, transparent, and reliable companies leading the charge. From public miners, to crypto OGs, to asset managers, Two Prime Lending is thrilled to see so much traction. Looking at the future pipeline, this is only the start.”

The rapid growth of Two Prime Lending speaks to the resurgence of demand for secure, transparent lending in the digital asset market. Looking ahead, the company anticipates substantial future demand for its offerings. A primary challenge in the market remains sourcing high-quality capital at competitive rates, which the company continues to address through its extensive relationships across capital markets, with access to over $2.5 billion in available credit facilities.

In addition to its core lending services, Two Prime Lending sees strong interest in combining loans with capital-efficient derivatives trading, allowing clients to earn yield on their assets while their loans are active, often offsetting the cost of the loan.

ABOUT TWO PRIME LENDING

Two Prime Lending Limited, incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, is the premier debt financing provider for digital asset markets. The company’s extensive relationships in capital markets and access to over $2.5B in capital have made it the most trusted name for miners, asset managers, family offices, and retail lenders.
