Vietnam’s PropTech Pioneer Meey Group Takes Bold Steps Toward International IPO

HANOI, Vietnam, Oct. 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Meey Group, a pioneering force in Vietnam’s real estate digital transformation, is accelerating its international IPO journey. In early October, the Group launched a series of strategic initiatives in the United States and Singapore, engaging with leading global financial and technology institutions. These moves underscore the firm’s determination to integrate Vietnamese technology enterprises into the global capital markets and realize its vision of transparent and sustainable international listing.

Connecting with Global Capital Markets

On October 7, Meey Group’s leadership team undertook a business mission to the United States, engaging with international partners across technology, finance, and advisory sectors. Notably, the delegation held meetings at Nasdaq MarketSite headquarters in New York to gain insights into international capital market operations, transparent information disclosure requirements, and governance standards for technology enterprises.

Mr. Hoang Mai Chung, Chairman of the Board of Meey Group, affirmed: “The IPO represents a strategic turning point in terms of positioning and credibility for Meey Group. This is a transformation process from a growth-stage technology company to an internationally standardized corporation—transparent, sustainable, and globally competitive”.

During the preparation phase, Meey Group has partnered with Loeb & Loeb LLP (USA) and YKVN (Vietnam), two leading law firms providing comprehensive legal advisory throughout the IPO process; alongside Marcum Asia, an international auditing firm with extensive expertise in the technology sector; and quality certification organizations including TÜV Nord (Germany) and the British Standards Institution (UK). Through these partnerships, Meey Group has perfected its governance system according to international standards, obtaining ISO 9001:2015 certification for quality management and ISO/IEC 27001 for information security, establishing a foundation for transparency and operational reliability.

Previously, on October 3, Meey Group’s leadership participated in the Investor Track event organized by Golden Gate Ventures, a leading Southeast Asian venture capital fund, in Singapore. This forum brought together international investment funds, global technology corporations, and promising enterprises from the region.

At the event, Meey Group representatives had the opportunity to meet and exchange with senior leaders from world-leading corporations and numerous strategic investment funds. Significantly, Meey Group was the only Vietnamese technology enterprise present at this gathering, affirming its position and the international investment community’s interest in the comprehensive PropTech ecosystem that Meey Group is building.

According to company representatives, participation in major financial forums enables Meey Group to directly access international investment networks, expand collaboration opportunities, and strengthen the image of Vietnamese technology enterprises in the eyes of the global financial community. This also provides a crucial foundation for Meey Group to progressively realize its international IPO roadmap, which has been planned well in advance.

The presence of Vietnamese technology enterprises at major global financial centers demonstrates a clear shift in integration mindset and the capacity to meet international standards. Meey Group’s proactive establishment of relationships with global financial institutions and certification organizations represents a critical foundation for advancing closer to the goal of listing on international markets.

Thorough Preparation for the Journey “Beyond Borders”

Meey Group has defined its international IPO as a long-term strategy, aimed at both expanding capital resources for development and elevating governance capabilities and transparency according to global standards. This PropTech enterprise is implementing a methodical preparation roadmap, strictly adhering to international standards, with the objective of building a modern governance system that ensures confidence among domestic and international investors.

On its journey to expand scale and capabilities, Meey Group continues to develop a comprehensive PropTech ecosystem, targeting the complete digitalization of Vietnam’s real estate value chain.

From its startup phase, Meey Group has identified technology and data as core values across its entire real estate financial technology ecosystem. Meey Group’s products, including Meey Map, Meey CRM, Meey 3D, Meey Atlas, and others, serve as tools for transactions, management, and providing data solutions, valuation, and market forecasting, creating unprecedented transparency in Vietnam’s real estate sector. The company’s products have been deployed across numerous provinces and cities domestically and are gradually expanding throughout Southeast Asia.

The integration of AI into management, transactions, and real estate data analysis has enabled high automation rates, enhanced user experience, and improved operational efficiency. Investment in core technology platforms provides the foundation for Meey Group’s readiness to expand regionally and globally.

Mr. Hoang Mai Chung shared: “The international IPO is an opportunity for Meey Group to introduce itself to the international investment community, demonstrate Vietnam’s technological capabilities, and commit to sustainable development. We are focused on upgrading governance standards, operating transparently, and professionalizing the entire system according to global standards”.

From a startup in the real estate technology sector, Meey Group is transforming into a technology corporation with international vision, laying the groundwork for a Vietnamese PropTech model deeply integrated into global financial and technology markets. With its international IPO strategy, the enterprise has affirmed its internal capabilities and demonstrated the pioneering role of Vietnamese enterprises in the digital economy era.

Building a Resilient Agrifood System: 2025 World Agrifood Innovation Conference Opens in Beijing

BEIJING, Oct. 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — On October 13, the 2025 World Agrifood Innovation Conference (WAFI 2025) opened in Pinggu District, Beijing. Nearly 800 scientists, entrepreneurs, and experts from over 90 countries and regions gathered to discuss the development of a resilient agrifood system, exploring solutions to global challenges and pathways for sustainable growth under key themes such as South-South cooperation, protected agriculture, controlled-environment agriculture, and smart livestock farming.

During the conference, attendees visited the concurrently held 2025 World Agrifood Tech Expo

A Media Snippet accompanying this announcement is available by clicking on this link.

Experts at the conference emphasized that the global agrifood system is facing mounting pressures from intensifying climate change, geopolitical instability, and continuous population growth. Building a secure and stable resilient agrifood system is essential for global food security and the sustainable development of humanity.

Statistics show that China feeds nearly 20% of the world’s population with only about 9% of the world’s arable land and 6% of its freshwater resources. Scientific and technological innovation has become a critical driver of agricultural advancement. In recent years, regions across China have leveraged their unique resource endowments and technological strengths to promote ecological, intelligent, and industrial transformation in agriculture through diverse approaches — including industry-academia-research collaboration, advanced breeding technologies, smart cultivation, specialty industry development, and ecological improvement.

“Innovation in science and technology is key to implementing the holistic food concept and building a resilient agrifood system,” said Zhong Denghua, Party Secretary of China Agricultural University. “China continues to advance scientific research, talent development, and the commercialization of agricultural technologies, injecting strong momentum into the modernization of its agriculture and contributing Chinese wisdom and solutions to global agrifood resilience.”

At the opening ceremony, several landmark initiatives were unveiled, including the upgraded Phase 2.0 development plan for Beijing’s “Agricultural Zhongguancun” Core Zone and China Agricultural University’s Shennong Large Model 3.0.

“As the core zone of Beijing’s ‘Agricultural Zhongguancun,’ Pinggu has consistently prioritized scientific and technological innovation as its central driving force,”said Peng Shi, Deputy Mayor of Pinggu District, Beijing. “We have achieved a series of notable outcomes in synthetic biology, key technology transfer, and enterprise clustering.” To date, Pinggu has attracted major agrifood enterprises such as Beijing Capital Agribusiness & Foods Group, Bayer, and Molbreeding; established 117 “Doctor Farms”; drawn in 411 agricultural experts; and facilitated the application of more than 100 scientific and technological achievements.

International participants expressed their eagerness to deepen and broaden collaboration with Chinese counterparts in areas such as modern seed industry, smart agriculture, intelligent agricultural equipment, and industry-academia integration, aiming to jointly enhance global food security and co-create a resilient future for the agrifood system.

The conference is co-hosted by China Agricultural University, the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (CAAS), the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the Pinggu District People’s Government of Beijing Municipality, and the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR). It will run through October 15.

Chery TIGGO7 CSH and TIGGO8 CSH Earn Five-Star Safety Rating from Euro NCAP

WUHU, China, Oct. 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — On October 15, Chery’s TIGGO7 CSH and TIGGO8 CSH both received the highest five-star safety rating from the European New Car Assessment Programmed (Euro NCAP) in its latest round of assessment. This accomplishment underscores Chery’s longstanding expertise in both active and passive safety technologies and further strengthens its reputation for safety in the global automotive market.

As one of the world’s most authoritative vehicle safety assessment organizations, Euro NCAP evaluates vehicles across four key areas: Adult Occupant Protection, Child Occupant Protection, Vulnerable Road User Protection, and Safety Assist.

In the latest testing round, both TIGGO7 CSH and TIGGO8 CSH delivered outstanding performances — scoring 82% in Adult Occupant Protection, 85% in Child Occupant Protection, 80% in Vulnerable Road User Protection, and 78% in Safety Assist. Their well-balanced results across all categories secured the coveted five-star rating, highlighting Chery’s comprehensive and consistent commitment to vehicle safety.

Behind these impressive results lies Chery’s sustained investment and technological innovation in automotive safety. After founding its Safety Test Center in 2000, Chery invested 150 million yuan in 2010 to establish Asia’s largest crash test laboratory. The facility performs over 1,500 full-vehicle crash tests and approximately 80 international regulatory tests annually, accurately replicating extreme driving scenarios from around the world and continually reinforcing the brand’s inherent safety DNA.

The five-star Euro NCAP rating extends Chery’s track record of outstanding safety performance in the international market. Previously, TIGGO7 PRO (Australian version) and TIGGO8 PRO MAX (Australian version)had also secured five-star rating from the Australasian New Car Assessment Programme (ANCAP). This latest achievement reaffirms that Chery’s SUV lineup complies with the stringent safety standards required across multiple international markets.

Beyond laboratory verification, Chery puts its vehicles through rigorous real-world extreme condition testing. Earlier this year, TIGGO7 CSH endured a high-speed impact during a battery underbody scraping challenge in Mexico, maintaining full structural integrity post-collision. Meanwhile, TIGGO8 CSH successfully completed more than 50 hours of battery immersion testing in Indonesia’s highly humid climate, continuing to function normally—further demonstrating Chery’s exceptional reliability under extreme conditions. Notably, at the upcoming Chery Brand User Summit in October 2025, Chery will take on what the industry considers the “ultimate challenge” in automotive safety: a 15-degree small-overlap dual-vehicle collision test. This bold move represents a step into uncharted territory in safety innovation.

Looking ahead, Chery will remain dedicated to its “Safety, for Family” philosophy and the vision of “Let everyone enjoy five-star protection.” The company is committed to delivering more five-star safety vehicles to global markets, ensuring that drivers everywhere can experience the same high level of safety and peace of mind on the road.
