New Upside with US OEM Partner Orbic to Build and Sell Popular Caterpillar Branded Rugged Device Product Line

NEW YORK, March 12, 2025 /CNW/ – MiMedia Holdings Ltd. (TSXV: MIM) (OTCQB: MIMDF) (FSE: KH3) “MiMedia”, “Company”) is pleased to provide an update and some observations from last week’s Mobile World Congress (“MWC”) Conference in Barcelona, having just returned from the event. 

Chris Giordano, MiMedia’s CEO, summarized: “We were thrilled to meet with a few of our existing partners that attended Mobile World Congress and all of them expect a strong 2025.  Most notably, we spent time with our US based OEM partner Orbic.  Orbic showcased their impressive new line of smartphones slated for release globally in 2025 that will include MiMedia as the default media gallery.” 

Orbic also featured a new line of Caterpillar branded “rugged devices”, including smartphones and tablets, and noted in several interviews at the show that they will now manufacture and sell Caterpillar rugged devices to the global market.  Rugged devices are mobile devices built to withstand harsh environments with integrated features, such as Bluetooth, walkie-talkie, data/voice communication, GPS tracking and Wi-Fi, ideal for industries like construction, emergency services, hospitality and emergency response.

Mr. Giordano added, “Caterpillar is a big win for Orbic and MiMedia, as it is believed that the rugged smartphone market hit $1.3 Billion in 2024 and analysts project that market can grow to $3.7 Billion by 20331. Caterpillar has built a strong following in this market category.  Now partnering with Orbic, Caterpillar should continue to expand its strong market position and MiMedia is excited to be part of this growth going forward.  As this new line rolls out later this year, the new devices will add to our 35 million plus smartphones already contracted with our partners to be deployed over the next 24 months.”

Mr. Giordano continued, “In addition to the exciting Orbic and Caterpillar news, we had a highly successful conference.  Our business development team conducted a full slate of meetings each of the four days of the conference, meeting with a number of leading global OEMs and Telcos.  We received a strong reception to the MiMedia platform, our AI driven technology and our high value proposition for consumers and their Telco and OEM service providers, which are also our target partners.  We believe MiMedia is well positioned to sign a number of new partners in the coming months that can deploy as early as next quarter with MiMedia integrated.”   

Mr. Giordano finally added, “From a market trend perspective, one takeaway from the week was the growing role of AI in our industry.  Given our years developing our patented, proprietary tech platform and the strength of our AI offering, we feel solid about our competitive advantages with AI and will continue to add additional AI driven features to extend our market lead.”

139th Canton Fair Phase 3 Advances Toward a Better Life with New and Strengthened Product Zones

By

GUANGZHOU, China, May 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The 139th China Import and Export Fair (Canton Fair) has rolled out nine newly established product zones. Phase 3 features an expanded and upgraded Intelligent Healthcare zone and the inaugural presentation of a Functional & Technical Fabrics zone.

The upgraded Intelligent Healthcare zone brings together 50 companies presenting a full spectrum of intelligent medical solutions, spanning AI-powered diagnostics, surgical robotics, and next‑generation eldercare technologies. Exhibits highlight how medical devices are becoming smaller, more precise, and increasingly non‑invasive. Capsule endoscopy systems demonstrate how gastrointestinal screening can be completed without discomfort, while AI‑enabled traditional Chinese medicine analyzers compress the inspection and inquiry process into minutes. Wearable glucose monitors make chronic disease management easier and more convenient.

Robotic technologies play a prominent role as well. Endoscopic and orthopedic surgical robots showcase enhanced precision through integrated human‑machine coordination, while bionic prosthetic hands use non‑invasive myoelectric sensing to independently control each finger. Intelligent rehabilitation systems, including lower‑limb exoskeletons and hand‑training devices, provide consistent support for patients recovering mobility. Companion‑style eldercare robots, equipped with monitoring and telemedicine functions, signal the rise of integrated home‑based health services.

The debuting Functional & Technical Fabrics zone highlights how the traditional textile industry is moving toward higher-end and smarter products. Exhibitors present materials that combine multi‑layered performance with intelligent responsiveness. Textiles featuring temperature‑regulating fibers, phase‑change materials, and light‑ or heat‑sensitive color‑shifting effects illustrate how fabrics are evolving into adaptive platforms capable of responding to environmental conditions.

Sustainability emerges as a defining theme. Bio‑based fibers, degradable films, recycled polyester, and organic cotton reflect a shift from isolated eco‑products toward full‑chain green manufacturing. High‑performance outdoor and protective applications further shape the narrative. Materials engineered for waterproof breathability, UV resistance, flame retardancy, and long‑term durability address rising demand across sportswear, professional protection, and medical environments. Smart textiles with embedded health‑monitoring modules demonstrate how apparel is beginning to function as a continuous wellness interface.

Both technology‑driven healthcare and advanced textiles are converging around a shared pursuit of a better life. As these advancements continue to evolve, they reflect a manufacturing landscape increasingly shaped by innovation, resilience, and a commitment to improving everyday living.

CupidFeel Insights Show How Shared Interests Affect Initial Connection Outcomes

Published

By

New behavioral insights from CupidFeel offer a carefully considered look at how shared interests influence whether an initial connection on a dating platform is sustained or abandoned in those first critical exchanges.

GIBRALTAR, May 3, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — The findings by CupidFeel are not dramatic, but they are telling. People who referenced a shared interest — whether a genre of music, a type of cuisine, a sport, a creative practice, or even a shared discomfort with small talk — within the first few exchanges of a new conversation were found to be measurably more likely to continue that conversation beyond the initial contact window. The effect was not uniform across all interest categories; certain types of shared interest appeared to carry more relational weight than others.

It was also observed by CupidFeel that the timing of when shared interests entered a conversation mattered. Connections where common ground was discovered organically — through the natural flow of exchange rather than prompted by a profile field or a direct question — showed stronger indicators of sustained interest. The discovery, in other words, carried more meaning when it felt like something found rather than something declared.

Among the most quietly striking findings in the CupidFeel data was the role of specificity. Broad shared categories — “we both like travel,” “we both enjoy cooking” — were associated with polite, often brief exchanges that rarely extended past pleasantries. But when specificity entered the picture — when one person mentioned a particular documentary that had stayed with them, or a city they had visited and could not stop thinking about — the conversational energy shifted. Something opened up.

In a CupidFeel review of trends in profile engagements, those whose profiles reflected specific, idiosyncratic interests — rather than broadly appealing ones — also showed higher rates of receiving first messages, a finding that runs gently counter to the instinct many people have to present themselves in the most universally appealing terms possible.

What seemed to matter most was not the quantity of overlap but whether the overlap that existed was felt — whether it produced a sense of being seen in some particular, non-generic way. A CupidFeel review of early conversation patterns suggests that a single deeply resonant shared interest may be more generative for early connection than a long list of surface-level commonalities that, taken together, feel more like a demographic profile than a person.

About CupidFeel

CupidFeel is an online dating platform built around the belief that meaningful connections begin with emotional honesty and the willingness to let a conversation go somewhere real. It came into being for people who are less interested in the mechanics of dating and more drawn to the possibility of something that feels grounded — exchanges that move at their own pace, guided by genuine curiosity rather than performance.

A CupidFeel review of its own design principles returns consistently to the same question: what does it take for a first message to feel like it might be worth the journey? The platform makes room for the kind of interaction that doesn’t always have a clear destination but feels, from the first exchange, like something real. CupidFeel is a place where the unexpected is not something to be managed, but something to be welcomed.
