Hong Kong, China, September 18, 2018 /Xinwengao.com/ - BT DELIVERS A WIRELESS BACKBONE SOLUTION FOR ONE OF EUROPE’S LARGEST CONTAINER TERMINALS
BT deploys a secure and resilient industrial wireless backbone solution for DP World Antwerp based on Rajant’s Kinetic Mesh#174; technology
BT has announced the completion of an innovative, secure and resilient wireless backbone network on behalf of DP World Antwerp for its Antwerp Gateway in Belgium, one of Europe’s busiest container terminals.
The innovative solution is a vital part of DP World’s digital transformation of the terminal, which handles 2.5 million containers every year, 3000 trucks every day and almost 950 ships annually.
It is designed to provide secure and resilient connectivity for not only the 900 people working at Antwerp Gateway but also the growing demands of connected devices. These will help DP World Antwerp to analyse and optimise processes and operations, such as the movement of vehicles around the terminal.
DP World Antwerp evaluated a range of technologies before choosing BT’s solution based on Rajant Corporation’s mobile, scalable and highly reliable Kinetic Mesh#174;. This enables always-on communications so critical applications can be accessed in real-time in the most cost-effective way. BT worked with DP World Antwerp on proof-of-concept trials to show that the technology could meet the stringent demands of terminal operations. Full deployment then followed.
The solution provides DP World Antwerp with a flexible meshed wireless backbone network that offers security, resilience and high bandwidth. It dynamically adapts to accommodate connectivity for moving vehicles and overcomes obstacles within an ever-changing environment including the presence of containers or large ships. It also complies with radio frequency and industrial regulations governing use of wireless on the site.
Patrick Putman, chief information innovation officer, DP World, said: “The container industry and global supply chain is undergoing huge changes enabled by digital technology. BT understands this and is helping us innovate to build on our success. Working together, we have successfully completed a wireless backbone solution that creates an infrastructure for future IoT deployments, opening up the possibilities of automation and artificial intelligence. It is our backbone for growth.”
Chet Patel, global transformation officer president continental Europe, Global Services, BT, said: “Deploying an innovative wireless backbone in such a complex and dynamic industrial environment, which operates non-stop, 24 hours-a-day, 365 days-a-year, demands detailed planning and precise execution. The success of the Antwerp Gateway wireless backbone solution is due not only to the technical expertise of the project team but also their in-depth knowledge of how major container terminals operate. This is a great example of how BT can innovate with customers and technology partners to create solutions that transform business.”

Hong Kong, China, September 18, 2017 /Xinwengao.com/ - Witnessing not only the lack of beer choices in Hong Kong but also the lack of European style beer halls and cuisine in the early 2000s, FRITES’ directors were determined to bring the Belgian beer and food culture to the city. They traveled to Belgium and carefully selected the best beer and gourmet food for their soon to be FRITES, which officially opened in September 2007. FRITES is now a well known and respected restaurant brand in Hong Kong and the directors are eyeing expansion into other regions in the area.

FRITES was established in 2007 as part of the Concept Creations group. Concept Creations has been widely regarded as one of the city’s leading restaurant management companies and has remained true to its founding principles by consistently establishing venues that are unique and innovative, such as Tapeo, Chicha and of course FRITES.

Concept Creations has valued being an employer of choice and believes that offering quality training and benefits to its employees has resulted in the comfortable, welcoming and hospitable ambience each venue is known for.

FRITES’ first decade in Hong Kong
Taking us back to the first FRITES in Central 2007, its signature decor, grand chandeliers hanging from high ceilings and ornate wooden cabinets showcasIng antique glassware, has successfully evoked the attention and support of Hong Kong diners. Next came Wan Chai and Quarry Bay opening in 2010 and 2011 respectively and the fourth branch opening its doors in Causeway Bay in 2015. FRITES’ popular dishes such as the Rich Man Burgers, Mussels Pots, and Steak and Frites have stolen the hearts of Hong Kong diners. Their generous portions and sharing style menu works well with Chinese food sharing culture. FRITES also offers a wide selection of over 8o Belgian beer as well as a vast array of quality wines, and some of the rarest beers in the world. FRITES has won a number of internationally recognised competitions, including the esteemed Stella Artois World Master competition for five consecutive years making FRITES’ food and beverages an impressive option for Hong Kong locals and expats alike. In the next decade FRITES will enhance its footprint with more locations in Hong Kong, and then into other regions in Asia.

Director’s note
“As we head towards our 10th anniversary it is time to reflect on what we have built at FRITES and what the future holds. Firstly we have to say a huge thank you to our customers. Without the loyal following we have created over the last 10 years we would be nothing. It is thanks to them that we have managed to build a Hong Kong brand that is not only strong but trusted. Naturally, none of this would be possible without the amazing FRITES TEAM. From the incredible managers and the Head Chefs right down to the kitchen porters. Every position matters, every person matters and together we work as a team to produce amazing food and amazing service.”

Beijing, China, May 9, 2017 /Xinwengao.com/ - China Money Network, the trusted news platform on China for millions of global investors, today launches its China Unicorn Ranking 2017, the most complete and up-to-date list of Chinese private companies valued at US$1 billion or more.

With 102 unicorns, a term used to describe the statistical rarity of such successful ventures, China has a unicorn herd worth US$435 billion, just shy of Belgium’s gross domestic product (GDP). If Chinese unicorns were an independent nation, they would form the world’s 26th largest economy.

“We are proud to announce our China Unicorn Ranking today, which is the result of months of research conducted by our hard-working team,” says Nina Xiang, editor and founder of China Money Network. “The rise of unicorns is truly an epitome of our time, in which private capital has grown its power to unprecedented levels and technology continues to reshape our imaginations of the future.”

In this debut ranking, the top ten spots are dominated by eight decacorns, a term used for private venture-funded companies worth over US$10 billion, including Alibaba’s Ant Financial, smartphone maker Xiaomi Inc., ride sharing firm Didi Chuxing, Internet finance firm Lufax, peer review and group buying platform Meituan-Dianping, news app Toutiao, drone-maker DJI and Tencent Music.

The power of Chinese tech giant trio, Baidu, Alibaba and Tencent, commonly referred to as BAT, is also evident throughout the list. Thirteen unicorns worth US$124.51 billion are directly affiliated or controlled by the BAT, taking 29% of the total in terms of valuation. Tencent, Alibaba and Baidu each have 22, 13 and 10 unicorns under their belt, respectively.

Today, China Money Network is also releasing its ranking of Top 10 VCs Backing China’s Unicorn Boom, which lists ten venture capital firms with the most unicorns in their portfolio. Sequoia Capital is the absolute winner, with 21 unicorns, while IDG Capital takes second place, with 15 unicorns in its portfolio. Matrix Partners China and Qiming Venture Partners tie for third place, each with 11 unicorns.

Amazingly, two non-Chinese firms made the list, with Singapore’s Temasek Holdings and DST Global, headed by Russian billionaire Yuri Milner, each having 10 and 9 unicorns, respectively.

“Unicorns are a good barometer for technology and venture capital markets, and the ability to identify and invest in unicorns is a true testament to investors’ visions and foresight,” adds Nina Xiang. “Our ranking of the Top 10 VCs Backing China’s Unicorn Boom shows clearly that the best investors are also those that have invested in the most unicorns.”
