Demonstrates company’s continued commitment to creating a more sustainable future while delivering solutions designed to make the complex, simple

ANAHEIM, Calif., Dec. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Targus®, the number one third-party docking station and laptop case brand in the US1 and a leader in mobile computing accessories, today announced that it has expanded its EcoSmart laptop bags and tech accessories, further demonstrating its commitment to making sustainable, long-lasting products that help people and businesses do more with their technology.

The company’s latest additions include new laptop cases and tech accessories bundles designed for sustainability, including a new GeoLite™ EcoSmart® Collection, which includes a sleek, slim backpack and briefcase, an ultra-durable and versatile 15-16″ Terra EcoSmart® Backpack, and EcoSmart™ mice/keyboard bundles designed for sustainability and superior ergonomics.

“At Targus, we continually strive to reduce our impact on the planet, which includes incorporating the use of sustainable materials and technologies in our products, from our laptop bags to tech accessories,” says Jonny Yuan, Vice President, Design at Targus. “These latest EcoSmart products exemplify how Targus is doing more to impact less while delivering innovative, purpose-built solutions to our customers.”

The 12-16″ GeoLite EcoSmart Advanced Backpack and 15-16″ GeoLite EcoSmart Slim Brief are designed for busy professionals to protect their laptops while staying organized and looking sleek. Each of these EcoSmart bags features a dedicated laptop compartment to keep their tech safe, along with handy zippered pockets to keep everything in their place. Both laptop bags are water-resistant on the outside and eco-friendly on the inside. The interior lining of the backpack is made using GRS-certified recycled materials equivalent to six recycled bottles and the Slim Brief’s interior from the equivalent of two recycled bottles.

In addition, Targus has introduced a 15-16″ Terra EcoSmart Backpack that can be effortlessly transitioned from a work and commuting backpack to weekend adventure pack. Available in black and grey, this durable, exceptionally versatile backpack delivers all-day comfort in a sustainable design, whether transitioning from work to the trails or traveling through crowded city streets during the daily commute. Its protection features include integrated anti-theft fasteners on primary pockets, a rain cover, and secure front helmet harnessing to handle the elements and prepare for new adventures. With an interior lining made from recycled materials, repurposing eight plastic bottles, this bag not only protects your essentials, but the environment, too.

In 2023, Targus first introduced EcoSmart tech accessories that are made from 85% certified post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic, operate on ultra-low-power Bluetooth® which is four times more energy efficient than standard Bluetooth, and come in recycled packaging. Now, Targus has expanded these offerings by offering them as a complete, bundled solution. They include an EcoSmart Ergonomic Keyboard & ErgoFlip™ Mouse Combo and Antimicrobial Full-Size Wireless EcoSmart Keyboard & Midsize Comfort Mouse Combo arriving this month and an EcoSmart Full-Size Wired Keyboard & Ambidextrous Wired Mouse Combo which will be available in Q1 2025.

Targus began incorporating recycled plastic in its products 16 years ago, and to date, has repurposed 32.2 million bottles – saving the equivalent of 2,008,477 lbs. of CO2 compared to virgin plastic.* In 2024, Targus also introduced a new Coastline™ Collection of laptop bags made from certified ocean-bound plastic and a high percentage of recycled material.

HZICC: The 2025 Hangzhou Highlights Awards Celebrating Visionaries Elevating the City’s Global Profile

Published

By

HANGZHOU, China, April 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — What does the world see when it looks at Hangzhou? The Hangzhou & Friends: 2025 Hangzhou Highlights Awards, unveiled on February 4, offered an answer—not through statistics alone, but through the stories of connection that unfolded across the year.

The awards were born from a simple recognition: that a city’s global presence is built not only on grand events, but on the countless moments when people reach across borders. To honor this, the organizers structured the awards into four chapters: Dialogue of Civilizations, Industrial Narratives, Social Innovation, and Moments of the Year, each capturing a different way that Hangzhou touched the world.

Across these categories, moments of quiet resonance stood out. In the realm of cultural dialogue, ten friends from ten nations explored Hangzhou for the first time, their journeys later echoed by the city’s own return visits to Istanbul and Cairo. After the visits, a German photographer’s image of Qiandao Lake’s giant net fishing found its way to the pages of The Times, Hangzhou’s bond with Verona deepened into a year-long romance of music, art, and shared celebration, proving that sister-city ties can bloom into something far richer than ceremony.

On the Liangzhu Day of 2025, the “Liangzhu and the World: Dialogue between Liangzhu Ancient City and Rome Ancient City” was held—one of several moments when the region’s archaeological treasures found new resonance on the global stage. Beyond culture, the awards recognized how Hangzhou’s industries are telling Chinese stories overseas, from Geely’s global development to the rise of cross-border e-commerce that brings Hangzhou products,and the culture behind them directly to international consumers.

Yet there were also countless other people and moments that helped the world know Hangzhou. An international student from Pakistan filmed the city he had come to call home, capturing not just its landmarks but the feeling of belonging. A volunteer from Zimbabwe found himself holding hands with local police and strangers in a human chain at West Lake to maintain traffic order, discovering that being welcomed means being trusted to help. The Hangzhou International Conference Center became a stage for cross-cultural encounter, while Hangzhou’s tech-themed travel routes offered visitors a chance to explore the city’s cutting-edge innovations.

Together, these moments traced a portrait of Hangzhou not as a place that simply welcomes visitors, but as one that listens, shares, and grows, through the people who carry its stories onward.
