The Center is dedicated to advancing full-stack physical AI technologies, addressing fundamental bottlenecks in current AI, including an insufficient understanding of the laws of the physical world, limited reasoning capabilities, and a lack of reliable support for action and decision-making.The Center will build a new-generation physical AI technology foundation capable of understanding, predicting, reasoning, and decision-making, supporting strategic industries such as autonomous driving, robotics, and smart manufacturing, while helping position Hong Kong as a key strategic hub for national physical AI innovation.Multidimensional Research Directions: Full-Stack Layout from Chips to ApplicationsThe Center will pursue research covering chips and systems, foundational models and data, privacy protection and safety governance, as well as core application scenarios. By exploring and leveraging world models to build high-fidelity strategy validation and interactive reasoning capabilities, the Center aims to train AI in virtual environments before transferring capabilities to the real world-significantly improving AI‘s generalizability, interpretability, and reliability in complex and open environments, and building a long-term technical foundation for a wide range of intelligent applications.The Center’s ambition is to become a global strategic hub for physical AI innovation, leading the development of industry benchmarks and open-source platforms, and cultivating internationally competitive talent in physical AI.Based in Hong Kong, Serving the National “AI+” StrategyThe Center will actively serve the national “AI+” strategy, positioning itself with Hong Kong as its base, the Greater Bay Area as its hinterland, and the world as its stage. It strives to become a strategic highland for physical AI research in the Asia-Pacific region and an international hub for collaboration. The Center will establish end-to-end capabilities from fundamental research to industrial deployment, providing unified technical standards and common tools for the industry. Leveraging Hong Kong’s global connectivity and the Greater Bay Area’s comprehensive industrial supply chain, the Center will accelerate technology transfer and build a world-leading research and innovation center for physical intelligence.World-Class Academic LeadershipThe Center is led by Prof. GUO Song – Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineering, Foreign Member of the European Academy of Sciences (EU), IEEE Fellow, and Chair Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at HKUST – who serves as its director. Prof. Guo has long been engaged in distributed computing, edge AI, and multi-modal foundation models, dedicated to solving the challenges of generalization and reliability of AI in real-world physical environments.He is a recipient of the IEEE Edward J. McCluskey Technical Achievement Award, one of the highest honors in computer engineering, and is widely recognized as an international leader in the field. He also leads the Pervasive Intelligence Laboratory (PeiLAB), which has been based in Hong Kong for a decade and has produced substantial original achievements in physical world modeling, embodied reinforcement learning, and edge intelligent systems, providing a solid theoretical foundation for the Center’s research endeavors. Prof. Guo Song remarked: “Our pioneering ‘Physical Alignment’ technology upgrades generative video models into interactive world models, marking a shift in AI from ‘seeing the world’ to ‘acting on the world.’ By enabling infinite trial and error in virtual spaces, we provide a new paradigm for behavior prediction and safety planning in next-generation autonomous driving.” Prof. Zheng Weimin stated that physical AI will be a major strategic direction following general-purpose foundation models. He then presided over the handshake and group photo ceremony between the Strategic Advisory Committee and the Innovation Center, marking the field’s official entry into a new phase of industry-academia-research integration.

OTTAWA, ON, June 3, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Focus Graphite Inc. (TSXV: FMS) (OTCQB: FCSMF) (FSE: FKC0) ("Focus" or the "Company"), a Canadian developer of high-grade flake graphite deposits and advanced graphite materials for battery, defence, and industrial applications, is pleased to announce that it has executed a non-repayable Contribution Agreement (the "Agreement") with Natural Resources Canada ("NRCan") under the Government of Canada's newly established First and Last Mile Fund ("FLMF"), formerly the Critical Minerals Infrastructure Fund, securing up to $1,378,700 in non-dilutive federal funding (the "Funding") to advance critical transportation and energy infrastructure planning under the Project Titled Lac Knife Graphite Mine Access Road and Hydro Connection (the "Project") for the Company's flagship Lac Knife Graphite Project ("Lac Knife") in northeastern Quebec.The Funding will support engineering, environmental, permitting, community engagement and feasibility activities required to advance the planned all-season access road and Hydro-Quebec grid connection toward a construction-ready, shovel-ready stage. Once completed, these pre-development activities are expected to materially de-risk future infrastructure development and significantly advance Lac Knife's pathway toward future construction, development financing, strategic partnerships and operation.The Funding forms part of the Government of Canada's recently announced C$3.6 billion Critical Minerals Investment Package, unveiled at the 2026 Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) Convention by the Honourable Tim Hodgson, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources. A cornerstone of the package is the C$1.5 billion FLMF, established to advance enabling infrastructure that moves strategic critical mineral projects toward construction readiness while strengthening domestic supply chains and supporting Canada's economic, defence and national security objectives."We are honoured to receive this support from the Government of Canada, which recognizes the strategic importance of the Lac Knife project to the North American critical minerals supply chain," said Dean Hanisch, Chief Executive Officer of Focus Graphite. "As we advance toward permitting and development, this funding is a strong endorsement of Focus Graphite's role in helping build a secure domestic supply of high-grade graphite. We are also fortunate to have existing road and power infrastructure, providing a significant advantage as we move closer to production."Lac Knife hosts one of North America's highest-grade natural graphite deposits and represents a strategically important source of natural graphite for North American and allied supply chains. Natural graphite is a foundational material for lithium-ion batteries, advanced manufacturing, energy storage systems, and a growing range of defence and dual-use technologies, making secure domestic supply increasingly important to Canada and its allies."The objective is simple: advance Lac Knife, reduce risk and preserve shareholder capital," said Jason Latkowcer, Vice President of Corporate Development of Focus Graphite. "Around the world, governments and industry are moving quickly to secure critical mineral supply chains. We've heard that message directly from allies and strategic stakeholders. There isn't time to waste. This funding helps move Lac Knife from planning toward execution. Early technical work has already identified opportunities to improve access, and we expect further optimization as engineering and infrastructure planning advances. This is another tangible step toward building a strategic graphite asset for Canada and its allies."A key component of the program includes collaboration with Indigenous communities, including the Innu Takuaikan Uashat mak Mani-Utenam ("ITUM"). The Project includes the establishment of joint technical and steering committees, Indigenous workforce participation initiatives, skills development programs, community consultation activities and support for Indigenous participation in the future development and operation of the planned infrastructure. These activities align with the objectives of the First and Last Mile Fund to advance Indigenous leadership, engagement and participation throughout the development of strategic critical mineral infrastructure."The development of Lac Knife is a perfect example of Canada's new mining era: a strategic project, developed to benefit local economies, sustainably, and in partnership with Indigenous Peoples, along with advancing Canada's role as a reliable global supplier of critical minerals," said the Honourable Tim Hodgson, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources. "By investing in the infrastructure and early work needed to advance this high-grade graphite project, we are reducing risk, accelerating development, and helping to build a secure, end-to-end supply chain-from mine to market. This is how we strengthen economic and supply chain security for decades to come."The infrastructure initiative is expected to deliver multiple long-term benefits to Canada and Quebec. The proposed access road will establish reliable year-round access to the Lac Knife site, while the future transmission connection will support the electrification of mining operations through Quebec's hydroelectric grid, reducing reliance on diesel-powered infrastructure and strengthening the sustainability, resilience and security of Canada's critical minerals supply chain. The planned infrastructure is expected to support future production, improve regional access and contribute to long-term economic development opportunities across Quebec's North Shore region.Federal Funding DetailsUnder the executed Agreement, NRCan will provide up to C$1,378,700 in non-repayable funding, representing approximately 50% of total eligible Project costs. Focus Graphite will contribute an equivalent amount toward the Project. The Agreement represents another important step in advancing Lac Knife and reinforces Canada's commitment to developing secure domestic critical mineral supply chains from extraction through processing and delivery into North American and allied markets.Funding will support the full work program outlined in the Agreement, including feasibility and engineering studies, environmental baseline work, geotechnical and LiDAR surveys, stakeholder engagement, regulatory and permitting activities and detailed infrastructure design.

Astana, Kazakhstan, Jun 2, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - A business delegation led by the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), John Lee, and organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), began its visit to Astana, the capital of Kazakhstan, on 1 June. During the visit, a total of 43 memoranda of understanding (MoUs) and announcements were signed, covering areas including trade and commerce, investment, financial services, technology, aviation, and green finance. These agreements further strengthened trade, economic and industrial cooperation among Hong Kong, Chinese Mainland and Kazakhstan, fully leveraging Hong Kong’s unique role as the country’s two-way services platform and supporting enterprises in tapping opportunities in Central Asia.The delegation will conclude its Kazakhstan visit tomorrow and depart for Uzbekistan to further explore business and trade cooperation among Hong Kong, Chinese Mainland and Central Asian countries under the Belt and Road Initiative.To promote business collaboration, the HKSAR Government and the HKTDC jointly hosted a business luncheon today, attracting more than 300 business leaders and senior officials.John Lee, the Chief Executive of the HKSAR, said at the luncheon: “Kazakhstan has, for centuries, connected Eastern and Western civilisations, serving as a bridge of commerce, culture and innovative ideas. That legacy continues today. From the port of Khorgos to the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route, Kazakhstan is now a business and logistics hub linking China, our country, and Europe. Rich in oil and mineral resources, and rapidly developing and diversifying, Kazakhstan is a regional economic powerhouse. Hong Kong, a pivotal player in the Belt and Road Initiative, looks forward to working with Kazakhstan in creating mutual opportunities.”Prof Frederick Ma, Chairman of the HKTDC, said: “Kazakhstan is the largest economy in Central Asia, accounting for 53% of the region’s GDP in 2025. Under its Kazakhstan 2050 Strategy, the country is actively promoting economic diversification, with the goal of becoming one of the world’s top 30 most developed economies by 2050, demonstrating strong growth potential. This visit has enhanced local enterprises’ understanding of Hong Kong’s advantages as a superconnector and super value-adder. Under the Belt and Road Initiative, we believe substantial cooperation opportunities will emerge across various sectors, including logistics infrastructure, green finance, digital economy, agricultural upgrading and food processing. The model of Mainland enterprises going global with Hong Kong while leveraging the HKTDC platform will create new opportunities for collaboration with Central Asia.”Following previous visits to Qatar and Kuwait last year, this delegation once again brings together the strengths of Hong Kong and Mainland enterprises. The delegation comprises 70 business leaders from Hong Kong and enterprise representatives from 17 provinces and municipalities across the Chinese Mainland, covering a wide spectrum of sectors, including financial and professional services, logistics and transportation, innovation and technology, trade, green industries, energy and mining, biopharmaceuticals, the automotive industry as well as the media. For the first time, representatives from journalism associations, including The Newspaper Society of Hong Kong and the Hong Kong News Executives’ Association, have joined the delegation, in line with the Policy Address’s initiative to enable local media to develop their overseas network and tell the Hong Kong story.During their stay in Kazakhstan, the delegation met with senior representatives from government bodies, chambers of commerce and major corporations, including the National Chamber of Entrepreneurs of the Republic of Kazakhstan ‘Atameken’, ‘Baiterek’ National Investment Holding, Halyk Bank and Samruk-Kazyna. They exchanged views on strengthening bilateral trade ties and industrial collaboration and explored opportunities to leverage Hong Kong as a platform for broader regional cooperation.The delegation also visited Astana Hub and the Astana International Financial Centre (AIFC) to gain insights into the latest developments in innovation and technology as well as financial services in Kazakhstan.According to available data, Kazakhstan’s GDP is projected to grow by 4.6% in 2026, reaching approximately US$360.5 billion, to maintain its position as the largest economy in Central Asia and among the world’s top 50 economies. Uzbekistan’s GDP is forecast to grow by 6.5% in 2026, reaching approximately US$181.5 billion, with its GDP in US dollar terms having doubled between 2017 and 2025. Overall, the IMF forecasts GDP growth for Central Asia and the Caucasus at 6.2% in 2025 and 4.8% in 2026, higher than the global average of 3.1%. During its Kazakhstan visit, the delegation facilitated 43 MoUs and announcements, including:1.Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) and National Chamber of Entrepreneurs of the Republic of Kazakhstan "Atameken"2.Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) and Astana International Financial Centre (AIFC)3.Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) and Satbayev University4.Airport Authority and Almaty International Airport5.Belt and Road General Chamber of Commerce and National Chamber of Entrepreneurs of the Republic of Kazakhstan "Atameken"6.Belt and Road General Chamber of Commerce and Commex HK Link Digital Trading Company Limited and Eurasian Trading System Export” International Commodity Exchange (ETSE)7.Belt and Road General Chamber of Commerce and JINGSH CONSULTING LLP8.Chinese Manufacturers Association and National Chamber of Entrepreneurs of the Republic of Kazakhstan "Atameken"9.Cyberport and Astana Hub10.Federation of Hong Kong Industries (FHKI) and Ministry of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Development in Kazakhstan11.Hong Kong Exchange and Clearing Limited and Astana International Exchange (AIX)12.Hong Kong Exchange and Clearing Limited and Astana International Financial Centre (AIFC)13.Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks and Astana Hub14.Hong Kong-Shenzhen Innovation and Technology Park Ltd. and Astana Hub15.The Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce and National Chamber of Entrepreneurs of the Republic of Kazakhstan "Atameken"16.Law Society of Hong Kong and National Bar Association of Kazakhstan17.BOCHK and Bank of China Kazakhstan and Baiterek18.BOCHK and Bank of China Kazakhstan and Samruk Kazyna19.Bosera International Asset Management Limited and JSC "Halyk Bank of Kazakhstan"20.Cathay Pacific and Almaty International Airport and Almaty City Government (Tourism Development)21.China International Capital Corporation Limited and Freedom Holdings22.China International Capital Corporation Limited and Samruk Kazyna23.China International Capital Corporation Limited and Astana International Financial Centre (AIFC)24.China International Capital Corporation Limited and Air Astana25.Deloitte and Universal Energy Co., Ltd.26.Ewpartners Investment Management Limited and Dasco Capital Ltd.27.Ewpartners Investment Management Limited and Astana International Financial Centre (AIFC)28.Goldford Group and Gas Energy Solution LLP29.Hong Kong News executives’ Association and The Newspaper Society of Hong Kong and Khabar Agency JSC30.Jardine Matheson and KIDF31.Jiaxin International Resources Investment Limited and Industry and Construction of the Republic of Kazakhstan32.Koln 3D Technology (Medical) Limited and Kazakh Research Institute of Oncology and Radiology33.PCCW and Kazakhtelecom34.PCCW and Khabar Agency JSC35.SCMP and Astana International Financial Centre (AIFC)36.SCMP and GOBI PARTNERS and Astana Hub and Khan Tengri Innovation Hub37.Soy-Sky FarmTech Company Limited (Hong Kong) and JSC NC Food Contract Corporation of Kazakhstan38.Standard Chartered Bank and Development Bank of Kazakhstan39.Templewater and Freedom Holdings40.The Standard and Freedom Horizons41.Standard Chartered Bank and Hangzhou CIEC Group Co., Ltd.42.Walvax Biotechnology Co., Ltd. and Gold Astrum LLC43.Ewpartners Investment Management Limited and Jiangsu Solicitude Medical Technology (Group) Limited and Samruk-Kazyna Invest LLPIn addition, during the Central Asia visit, non-delegation members also signed a number of MoUs in academic, cultural or other collaboration areas:1.A-Grade Energy Ltd and Ministry of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Development of the Republic of Kazakhstan2.A-Grade Energy Ltd and Freedom Holdings3.China Mobile International Limited and Qazpost-YTO4.HKT and Education University of Hong Kong5.City University of Hong Kong and JSC "Center for International Programs under the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Republic of Kazakhstan6.City University of Hong Kong and Satbayev University7.Education University of Hong Kong and Nazarbayev University8.Hong Kong Polytechnic University and Nazarbayev University9.Thei and BILIM-INNOVATION International Social Foundation10.Thei and L.N.

SINGAPORE, June 2, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - For many in Singapore, a home makeover is more than just a fresh coat of paint; it is an investment in comfort and property value. Understanding how to navigate the financing landscape ensures you can complete your project without compromising your long-term financial stability.Thus, selecting the suitable personal loans in Singapore for home renovations requires a careful balance of flexibility, speed, and cost. While specific renovation loans exist, many homeowners find that the appropriate personal loans offer the versatility needed to cover both structural works and the finishing touches that a dedicated renovation loan might exclude.The strategies below focus on how to evaluate and choose the suitable Personal Loan for your renovation needs.Evaluate total project scope against loan limitsBefore applying for financing, it is essential to determine whether your renovation vision fits within the constraints of a traditional renovation loan. In Singapore, dedicated renovation loans are typically capped at SGD 30,000 or six times your monthly income, whichever is lower.If you are renovating a 4-room resale HDB or a mid-sized condo, costs can easily exceed SGD 50,000 to SGD 80,000. In these scenarios, seeking the appropriate personal loan is often more practical. Personal loans in Singapore can offer much higher ceilings, sometimes up to SGD 200,000 or eight times your monthly income for high earners, providing the necessary capital for extensive remodelling, subject to bank policies and eligibility.Prioritise usage flexibilityOne of the significant advantages of a personal loan over a specialised renovation loan is the freedom to use the funds as you see fit.Renovation Loans: These are strictly for structural or built-in works, such as flooring, tiling, and electrical wiring. The bank often pays the contractor directly via cashier's orders, meaning you never handle the cash.Personal Loans: These funds are disbursed directly into your bank account. This allows you to pay for specific items that renovation loans typically exclude, such as designer furniture, smart appliances, and decorative lighting.Compare Effective Interest Rate (EIR)When selecting a loan, do not be swayed by the flat interest rate alone. The true cost of borrowing is reflected in the Effective Interest Rate (EIR), which accounts for processing fees and the compounding nature of interest.In Singapore's competitive 2026 market, some of the personal loans offer attractive flat rates from 1.00% p.a. with EIRs from 1.93% p.a. Always check if the bank offers a $0 processing fee promotion, as this can significantly lower the EIR and keep your initial cash flow healthy.Consolidate multiple renovation costsA major renovation often creates several different bills, from furniture store instalments to contractor payment plans. Managing multiple due dates and interest rates can feel overwhelming once the work concludes.Choosing the appropriate personal loan allows you to combine these different costs into one simple monthly payment. This strategy makes it easier to track your money and often secure a lower interest rate than retail credit plans. By centralising your debt, this may help reduce missed payments and improve visibility over repayment obligations.A faster application made easy with digital toolsThe modern Singaporean financial landscape values speed and efficiency. Many homeowners now use digital application tools to streamline the loan application process.Lenders that integrate with MyInfo may help streamline the approval process and facilitate faster disbursement of funds, subject to credit assessment and eligibility criteria. This can help reduce potential delays in renovation timeline and support timely settlement of contractor invoices, where required.Match repayment tenures to your cash flowMost personal loans in Singapore offer flexible repayment tenures ranging from one to five years, with some lenders extending up to seven years.While a longer tenure reduces monthly commitment, it increases the total interest paid over the life of the loan. The key is to match your monthly instalments to your actual disposable income, thus maintaining a sufficient buffer for potential renovation cost overruns.Final thoughtsChoosing the right financing tool is just as important as choosing the right contractor. By prioritising flexibility and affordability, you can ensure your home transformation is both beautiful and financially sound.Disclaimer: This content is published by iQuanti Singapore Pte Ltd, an external marketer engaged and compensated by UOB Ltd.Contact Information:Name: Sonakshi MurzeEmail: Sonakshi.murze@iquanti.comJob Title: ManagerSOURCE: iQuanti Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, June 2, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Graphene Manufacturing Group Ltd (TSXV: GMG) (OTCQX: GMGMF) ("GMG" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has submitted an additional application to the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") for the manufacture and sale of graphene and graphene coatings (THERMAL-XR®), lubricants (G® LUBRICANT) and other graphene fluids in the United States.GMG has submitted a Significant New Use Notice ("SNUN") to the US EPA under pre-manufacture notice (PMN) P-25-0018. Under this application, GMG is seeking authorisation to manufacture, distribute, sell, use and dispose of graphene and graphene coatings, lubricants and fluids across multiple industries in the United States. GMG expects to obtain this approval by the end of June 2027.This application is in addition to the existing approval under PMN P-25-0018, which authorises the Company to export, distribute, sell, use and dispose of graphene coatings across multiple industries in the United States.Craig Nicol, CEO & Managing Director of the Company, commented: "Submitting the SNUN is a decisive step in our US strategy. This application, if approved, will grant GMG the authorisation to manufacture graphene domestically in the United States — not simply to export into the market, but to produce within it. That distinction matters. It positions GMG to serve US customers at scale, deepen our industrial footprint, and build a genuinely American supply chain for graphene-enabled products. We expect EPA approval by the end of June 2027 and are planning our commercial operations accordingly."Jack Perkowski, Chairman and Non-Executive Director of the Company, commented: "The United States is the most important market in the world for what GMG is building. This SNUN filing reflects our commitment to America — not just as a customer base, but as a centre of production, capital formation, and long-term growth. We are looking to the US to drive the next chapter of GMG's commercial expansion."About THERMAL-XR®:THERMAL-XR® ENHANCE coating system is a unique method of improving the conductivity of corroded heat exchange surfaces and improving and maintaining the performance of new units at peak levels. The process coats and protects heat exchange surfaces while improving and rebuilding the lost corroded thermal conductivity and increasing the heat transfer rate by leveraging the physics of GMG Graphene, resulting in an efficiency improvement and a potential power reduction. THERMAL-XR® ENHANCE is now patented for 20 years in Australia and is expected to be patented in other countries around the world.About G® LUBRICANT:G® LUBRICANT is what management believes to be a transformative graphene liquid concentrate additive designed to enhance the performance of diesel and gasoline (petrol) engines. This product has the potential to reshape the future of the global liquid fuels industry and offers an innovative solution that optimises efficiency and power for stationary or mobile engines. G® LUBRICANT, a graphene liquid concentrate that can be added to any mineral or synthetic oil used in an internal combustion engine in a 1:100 dosage, has been verified by the University of Queensland to increase fuel efficiency by up to 8.4% in a diesel engine, as announced in February 2025.1 G® LUBRICANT is now patented for 20 years in Europe, the US, and China.1RSU GrantsThe Company is also pleased to announce that following the annual remuneration review, its Board of Directors have approved the grant of an aggregate of 783,590 Restricted Share Units ("RSUs") to employees and directors of the Company pursuant to its Restricted Share and Performance Share Plan and the Stock Option Plan.When vested, each RSU entitles the holder thereof to receive one Share upon exercise in accordance with the Plan. The holder at their own discretion, and separately to the Company, may action those shares accordingly for their personal use.About GMG:GMG is an Australian-based clean-technology company that develops, manufactures and sells energy-saving and energy-storage solutions, enabled by graphene produced via its in-house production process. GMG uses its proprietary process to decompose natural gas (i.e., methane) into its natural elements — carbon (as graphene), hydrogen, and some residual hydrocarbon gases. This process produces high-quality, low-cost, scalable, tuneable, and low- to no-contaminant graphene suitable for use in clean-technology and other applications.The Company's present focus is to de-risk and develop commercial scale-up capabilities and to secure market applications. In the energy savings segment, GMG has initially focused on a graphene-enhanced heating, ventilation and air conditioning ("HVAC-R") coating (or energy-saving coating), which is now being marketed into other applications including electronic heat sinks, industrial process plants, and data centres. GMG has also developed a graphene lubricant additive focused on saving liquid fuels, initially for diesel engines.In the energy storage segment, GMG and the University of Queensland are working collaboratively, with financial support from the Australian Government, to progress R&D and commercialisation of graphene aluminium-ion batteries ("G+AI Batteries"). GMG has also developed a graphene additive slurry aimed at improving the performance of lithium-ion batteries.GMG's 4 critical business objectives are:Produce Graphene and improve/scale cell production processesBuild Revenue from Energy Savings ProductsDevelop Next-Generation BatteryDevelop Supply Chain, Partners & Project Execution CapabilityFor further information please contact:Craig Nicol, Chief Executive Officer & Managing Director of the Company at craig.nicol@graphenemg.com, +61 415 445 223Leo Karabelas at Focus Communications Investor Relations, leo@fcir.ca, +1 647 689 6041Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this news release.Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking StatementsThis news release includes certain statements and information that may constitute forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable Canadian and U.S. securities laws.

("Canaccord Genuity") as financial advisor in connection with a formal strategic review process (the "Review"). The Review has been initiated by Doubleview with a primary focus on potential sales of the Company, with a view to maximizing shareholder value.The Review will explore and evaluate a broad range of strategic and financial options, which may include a potential sale of the Hat Project or other near-term alternatives, a merger, amalgamation, plan of arrangement, joint venture, business combination, recapitalization, special dividend, strategic investments (including potential participation from government-backed entities and sovereign wealth funds), or such other transaction as the Board determines is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.Canaccord Genuity will provide comprehensive advisory services throughout the Review, including financial analysis and valuation, transaction structuring, merger modelling, negotiation support, market monitoring, and, if requested by the Board, fairness opinions. The engagement also provides Doubleview with access to Canaccord Genuity's extensive global network of strategic and financial counterparties across the gold, copper, and critical minerals sectors.Farshad Shirvani, President and CEO of Doubleview Gold Corp., commented:"The Hat Project has delivered a robust Preliminary Economic Assessment with an after-tax NPV(5%) ranging from C$6.73 billion to C$7.27 billion at consensus metal prices and C$13.53 billion to C$14.85 billion at spot metal prices, and an IRR ranging from 19% to 39%, demonstrating exceptional economics and significant critical-minerals exposure, including potential value contribution from a scandium and cobalt recovery circuit.

HONG KONG, Jun 2, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - China’s leading toy brand 52TOYS officially opened a new store at Hong Kong International Airport. Located at Shop 7E101A, Level 7 Departures East Hall (Restricted Area), Terminal 1 of Hong Kong International Airport, a core global transportation hub, the store features thoughtful design and a differentiated product matrix, creating a toy space that offers both trendy texture and cultural warmth, thereby meeting the needs of global travelers and serving as an important window for the brand in the international market.Airport-Inspired Design Creates an International Benchmark StoreThe Hong Kong Airport store follows the brand’s airport flagship store design style, forming a north-south pairing with the Beijing Capital International Airport store as the brand’s dual international “image ambassadors”. It adopts a unique retro terminal style design, comprehensively shaping a trendy cultural base with both retro temperament and future imagination through its spatial structure, material selection, and the integration of terminal elements.In terms of spatial composition, the intertwining and combination of geometric volumes creates a strong architectural sense, paired with light and shadow to create a dynamic futuristic vibe. In terms of materials, the rough concrete texture collides with the cold metal finish, injecting the hardcore texture of industrial style into the retro backdrop and strengthening the atmosphere of the trendy base. Terminal elements such as airplane turbines and runways are cleverly integrated, continuing and strengthening the airport’s sense of place, which adds a different kind of trendy fun to travelers’ journeys, allowing passengers to enjoy a unique travel experience during their waiting time and unlock a brand-new airport leisure experience.The Hong Kong Airport store saw strong visitor traffic and robust sales on its opening day, demonstrating the strong market appeal of the 52TOYS brand and product portfolio. Customers on site commented, “It’s such a great store — it really killed the boredom of waiting for my flight!”, while others said, “There are so many impressive products that I want to pack them all into my suitcase.”Differentiated Product Mix and Signature Displays Deliver a Travel Experience Full of SurprisesThe store is carefully planned around airport travel scenarios and the needs of different consumer segments. At the entrance, a product zone for POUKAPOUKA neck pillows and plush cushions is specially set up, directly matching the essential travel needs. Further inside, themed zones dedicated to popular proprietary IPs including POUKAPOUKA, NOOK and CiCiLu feature scenario-based displays alongside new products. Special IP introduction signage has also been installed to vividly present the spiritual core of the IPs.The store offers a rich and highly layered product portfolio with particularly strong differentiation advantages. According to the store manager, leveraging the unique passenger traffic profile of Hong Kong International Airport, 52TOYS' products with Chinese cultural characteristics, such as the Hyper-Activated and BEASTBOX series, have become highly popular among overseas consumers as sought-after Chinese-style souvenirs. Large-scale collectible figures with strong display and gifting value have also proven especially popular, further demonstrating the brand’s strengths in product portfolio and its broad consumer reach.In addition, the store has launched multiple Hong Kong Airport-exclusive products, including POUKAPOUKA pineapple bun magnetic stickers, hooded neck pillows, and luggage tags, as well as LITTLE BUNS Hong Kong Kung Fu Journey magnetic stickers and Panda Roll Hong Kong Cha Chaan Teng series magnetic stickers. Fusing Hong Kong local culture with practical travel attributes, these products serve both as meaningful travel keepsakes and highly distinctive city souvenirs, highlighting the brand’s deep understanding of segmented consumer scenarios and consumer mindset.Strengthening Presence Across Key Hong Kong and Macau Gateway Hubs to Reinforce a New Global Development LandscapeAs one of the world’s busiest aviation hubs, Hong Kong International Airport connects more than 200 destinations worldwide and brings together an international, high-net-worth and highly mobile consumer base, making it a prime gateway for brands seeking to expand into international markets. Following the opening of the Studio City Macau brand store in November 2025 and the Beijing Capital International Airport store in February 2026, the launch of the Hong Kong Airport store marks the official completion of 52TOYS’ strategic presence across key transportation hubs in mainland China, Macau, and Hong Kong, further adding a critical pillar to the company’s international offline expansion strategy.Industry observers noted that the Hong Kong Airport location is expected to bring three major areas of incremental value to 52TOYS. Firstly, it enables the company to secure a position within the global traffic hub and efficiently reach consumers worldwide through Hong Kong International Airport’s extensive international connectivity, accelerating global expansion. Secondly, it provides access to high-net-worth consumer groups through the airport’s premium passenger structure, creating a new growth engine for offline retail while further enhancing brand influence. Thirdly, it establishes an international brand image showcase, using the airport store as a signature brand window to amplify the global influence of the IP portfolio and further promote Chinese toy culture internationally.Having deeply cultivated the toy industry for many years, 52TOYS continues to strengthen its refined offline layout and innovate across consumer scenarios. From core commercial districts to transportation hubs, and from the domestic market to global expansion, the company continues to integrate toys into consumers’ everyday lifestyles. Looking forward, 52TOYS will use the Hong Kong Airport store as a new starting point to accelerate its international expansion, connecting with consumers worldwide through diversified high-quality IPs and products while further unleashing the vitality of Chinese toy culture in the global market.

加州舊金山, 2026年6月2日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 企業級代理式人工智慧領導者 Aible 今日宣布，其 AibleClaw，其針對受控、長期運行的 AI 代理程式（即 Claws）所設計的企業解決方案，已與 NVIDIA Cloud Functions 整合，- 將無伺服器 GPU 的經濟效益帶入企業 AI 工作負載，並大幅降低總擁有成本（TCO）。此解決方案奠基於 Aible 早期採用 NVIDIA Cloud Functions（NVCF）的經驗, NVIDIA DSX 作業系統的關鍵組件。Aible 於 2024 年 10 月進行的效能測試顯示，無伺服器 GPU 可將生成式人工智慧（GenAI）的端到端總擁有成本（TCO）降低多達 200 倍。Claws（通常指預排程的工作負載）天生就適合在 NVCF 上運行，並能充分發揮無伺服器推論的經濟效益。繼近期推出 AibleClaw 搭載 NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Super 針對受管制的長期運行企業代理程式以及 AibleClaw 搭載 NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Nano Omni針對邊緣端的多元模態推理，今日的公告詳述了 AibleClaw 如何充分釋放 NVCF 的總擁有成本（TCO）優勢，並以固定且可預測的成本為企業用戶提供安全的私有 AI 解決方案。今天的發布是基於 Aible 近期針對企業用戶發布的「安全人工智慧」公告, 該文闡述了在代幣價格上漲及前沿模型安全隱患日益加劇的時代背景下，固定成本、本地部署的私有 AI 所處的更廣泛背景。「就在上週，Aible 的開發人員在 NVIDIA 總部度過了兩天，與 NVIDIA 團隊密切合作，以調整並採用 NVIDIA 的最新技術。在這為期兩天的黑客松活動中，兩支團隊橫跨 NVCF 進行了合作，Nemotron 3 Ultra, NVIDIA NemoClaw, NVIDIA OpenShell 「為自主代理提供安全的執行環境，以及其他 NVIDIA Agent Toolkit 軟體。」Aible 創辦人暨執行長 Arijit Sengupta 表示。他補充道：「企業級 AI 的發展速度如此之快，幾乎讓人難以跟上。這正是我們與 NVIDIA 合作創新，作為 NVIDIA Inception 計畫「這對我們的成功至關重要。」在「利爪」時期降低營運成本代理式人工智慧（Agentic AI）——包括長期運行的代理程式，或稱「爪式工作負載」——正迅速成為企業的核心策略。此類爪式工作負載非常適合 NVCF，因為這些工作負載往往會出現突發性尖峰，且可能需要數分鐘才能完成；因此，考量到其極具吸引力的總持有成本（TCO）優勢，冷啟動延遲基本上已無關緊要。由 NVIDIA OpenShell 執行環境與 NemoClaw 藍圖驅動的 AibleClaw，運用 NVCF 來最佳化執行此類爪式工作負載。排程式的爪式工作負載（例如「每天分析我的行程以建立各工作會議的簡報」）可安排在 GPU 需求最低時執行，使整體系統運作更加順暢。其結果是，最高可達 200X 總擁有成本優勢 在每枚代幣成本上升的時代，低風險的私有化模式隨著 Anthropic、OpenAI、GitHub Copilot 等平台近期調整價格，運行 AI 代理程式或 AI 工具的企業對代幣成本的擔憂日益加劇。詳見：「在用戶抱怨其模型表現日益惡化的情況下，Anthropic 調高了重度使用者的價格：根據新的用量計費模式，其最忠實的客戶可能得支付顯著更高的費用，」以及 「GitHub Copilot 的定價變動可能將終結我們所熟知的低價 AI 編碼服務：隨著 GitHub 將 Copilot AI 方案改為按用量計費，我們正目睹定額制 AI 方案走向終結的開端。」Aible 讓企業能夠輕鬆地在自家伺服器上，以完全私有的方式執行其生成式人工智慧（GenAI）和代理式工作負載。由於 Aible 採按伺服器每年計費，且在本地執行語言模型， 不會產生任何意外的代幣成本。Aible 可在所有平台上穩定運行，包括各大雲端平台、私有伺服器、NVIDIA 雲端合作夥伴，桌面超級電腦、邊緣伺服器等。透過運用 NVIDIA Cloud Functions 以及 NVIDIA 軟體元件進行工作負載路由與調度，Aible 能協助企業運用私有環境中的分散式 GPU 資源，並將這些資源整合成虛擬私有或共享資料中心。Aible 的客戶無需自上而下建置龐大的資料中心，而是可以向其偏好的合作夥伴購買工作站或私有伺服器，將其接入各企業據點的私有網路中，在條件最佳時在地執行工作負載，但在必要時將工作負載分佈至各據點。我們相信，透過 NVCF 相互連接的工作站與私有伺服器，正是「自下而上資料中心」的一種新形式。這就是 AI Grid 或自下而上資料中心的現實樣貌，而這一切，就在今天實現了。企業若想進一步了解，請預約洽談 這裡。相關資源NVIDIA DSX OS：專為「代理式人工智慧工廠」設計的開源基礎架構軟體NVIDIA DSX 為基礎設施建構者提供建構 AI 工廠的實戰指南Aible 推出 AibleClaw 長期運行代理程式，並於 NVIDIA GTC 2026 大會上於八個合作夥伴展位及場次進行展示無伺服器 GPU 可將端到端 RAG 解決方案的生成式人工智慧總擁有成本 (TCO) 降低 200 倍關於 AibleAible 正透過由業務使用者大規模建立並訓練的專業化、長期運行的 AI 代理程式，重新定義企業如何創造可量化的商業影響。財富 500 強企業、美國各州政府、聯邦機構及其他組織皆採用 Aible 的 AI 代理程式，在短短數天內（而非數月）於各業務領域（包括客戶獲取與留存、呼叫中心優化、庫存或供應鏈管理、產品開發以及風險緩解）實現可量化的成果。企業還將能夠運用 AibleClaw——這是一款專為長期運行的 AI 代理設計的安全企業級解決方案，其運作模式類似於 OpenClaw，但具備確定性執行、預先核准的工具、企業級防護措施、受管控的資料存取權限，以及完整的可稽核性。Aible 代理式 AI 平台是業務使用者透過尖端增強分析、生成式 AI 以及安全的長期運行代理，自動檢視數百萬種模式以發掘企業洞察的最快途徑。Aible 的獨特之處在於，它賦予業務使用者對 AI 代理的完全控制權，讓他們能針對推理步驟提供反饋，從而提升準確性、加速業務對接，並在數千種企業應用場景中持續優化效能。這套端到端的無伺服器 AI 平台完全部署於企業自有雲端或邊緣環境的安全環境中，成本效益最高可提升 200 倍。了解更多詳情請造訪 www.aible.com。媒體聯絡人：pr@aible.com消息來源：Aible Copyright 2026 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA, June 2, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Aible, the enterprise agentic AI leader, today announced that AibleClaw, its enterprise solution for governed, long-running AI agents or Claws, integrates with NVIDIA Cloud Functions, - bringing serverless GPU economics to enterprise AI workloads and significantly reducing Total Cost of Ownership (TCO.). Building on Aible's early adoption of NVIDIA Cloud Functions (NVCF), a key component of NVIDIA DSX OS. Aible's October 2024 benchmark demonstrated how serverless GPUs can improve end-to-end GenAI TCO by up to 200X.Claws, typically scheduled workloads, are naturally suited to run on NVCF and capture the full economic benefits of serverless inference. Following the recent launches of AibleClaw with NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Super for governed long-running enterprise agents and AibleClaw with NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Nano Omni for multimodal reasoning at the edge, today's announcement details how AibleClaw unlocks the full Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) benefits of NVCF and delivers secure private AI for business users at fixed and predictable cost.Today's launch builds on Aible's recent announcement on Secure AI for Business Users, which set out the broader context for fixed-cost, on-prem private AI in an era of rising token prices and growing security concerns with frontier models."Just last week Aible developers spent two days at NVIDIA headquarters working closely with NVIDIA teams to adapt and adopt the latest NVIDIA technologies. During the two day hackathon, the two teams collaborated across NVCF, Nemotron 3 Ultra, NVIDIA NemoClaw, the NVIDIA OpenShell secure runtime for autonomous agents, and other NVIDIA Agent Toolkit software.", said Arijit Sengupta, Founder & CEO of Aible. He added, "Enterprise AI is evolving so fast that it is almost impossible to keep up with the pace. This is where our co-innovation with NVIDIA as part of the NVIDIA Inception Program has been crucial to our success."Operating Costs Reduction in the Time of ClawsAgentic AI - including long-running agents, or "claws" - is rapidly becoming a core enterprise strategy. Such claw workloads are perfect for NVCF as these workloads tend to spike and can take several minutes to complete - thus making the cold start delay essentially irrelevant in light of the attractive TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) characteristics. AibleClaw, powered by the NVIDIA OpenShell runtime and NemoClaw blueprints, leverages NVCF to run such claw workloads optimally. Scheduled claw workloads, such as, "analyze my appointments everyday to create briefings for each work meeting," can be timed when GPU demands are lowest, to make the overall system run even more optimally. The result is that the up to 200X TCO advantage from serverless GPUs now applies directly to the workloads that need it most - claws.Low Risk Private Models in the Time of Higher Per Token CostsWith recent price changes at Anthropic, OpenAI, GitHub Copilot and others, enterprises running AI agents or claws are increasingly concerned about token costs. See: "Anthropic Hiked the Price for Power Users Amid Complaints Its Model Is Getting Worse: Its most dedicated customers could pay significantly more under a new usage-based pricing model," and "GitHub Copilot's price shakeup could end cheap AI coding as we know it: We're seeing the beginning of the end for flat-rate AI plans, starting with GitHub switching to usage-based pricing for its Copilot AI plans." Aible makes it easy for enterprises to run their GenAI and agentic workloads completely privately on their own servers. Because Aible charges by the server per year, and runs the language models locally, there are no unexpected token costs.Aible runs consistently on all platforms including major clouds, private servers, NVIDIA Cloud Partners, desktop supercomputers, edge servers, etc. By using NVIDIA Cloud Functions and NVIDIA software components for workload routing and orchestration, Aible can help enterprises use distributed GPU resources across private environments and can stitch such resources into virtual private or shared data centers. Instead of building massive data centers top down, Aible customers can buy workstations or private servers from their favorite partners, plug them into their private networks at each corporate location, run workloads locally when optimal, but distribute workloads across locations when necessary. We believe workstations and private servers connected together with NVCF are a new form of Bottoms-up Data Centers. This is the reality of the AI Grid or the Bottoms-up data center, delivered today.For enterprises looking to learn more, request a meeting here.Related ResourcesNVIDIA DSX OS: Open-Source Infrastructure Software for the Agentic AI FactoryNVIDIA DSX Gives Infrastructure Builders the Playbook for AI FactoriesAible Launches AibleClaw Long-Running Agents and Presents at Eight Partner Booths and Sessions at NVIDIA GTC 2026Serverless GPUs improve GenAI TCO by 200X for end-to-end RAG solutionsAbout AibleAible is redefining how enterprises drive measurable business impact with specialized and long-running AI agents that are created and coached by business users at scale.
