<p>As global uncertainty and digital threats intensify, Globe is calling for a more disciplined and people-focused approach to the future of connectivity. In Tokyo, Globe President and CEO Carl Cruz participated in two key international engagements, joining industry leaders to contribute to discussions on 6G and strengthen collective action against online scams.</p>



<p>Cruz took part in the Digital Nations Summit, where global telecom and technology leaders discussed the evolution of 5G-Advanced and the path toward 6G. He also joined industry discussions on combating digital fraud, including efforts under the United Against Scams initiative, reinforcing the need to embed trust and security at the core of the digital ecosystem. Cruz is also among global telecom leaders who signed the Tokyo Accord alongside representatives from NTT DOCOMO, KDDI, SoftBank, Rakuten Mobile, LG Uplus, the XG Mobile Promotion Forum, the 6G Forum, the Bharat 6G Alliance, and the GSMA, committing to the development of secure, inclusive, and resilient digital ecosystems.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="2048" height="1366" src="https://i0.wp.com/villageconnectph.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image.jpeg?fit=640%2C427&#038;ssl=1" alt="" class="wp-image-17436" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/villageconnectph.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image.jpeg?w=2048&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https://i0.wp.com/villageconnectph.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image.jpeg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/villageconnectph.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image.jpeg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https://i0.wp.com/villageconnectph.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/villageconnectph.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image.jpeg?resize=1536%2C1025&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https://i0.wp.com/villageconnectph.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image.jpeg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https://i0.wp.com/villageconnectph.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/image.jpeg?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" /></figure>



<p>“Connectivity today carries far more than data. It carries trust, livelihoods, and the ability of people to stay connected in moments that matter most,” said Cruz. “As we look toward 6G, the priority is clear. We have to build networks that are resilient, secure, and dependable in everyday life, especially when conditions are most challenging.”</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>From speed to stability</strong></h3>



<p>At the Digital Nations Summit, Globe emphasized that the future of connectivity must move beyond peak performance metrics and focus on consistency. While 6G is expected to unlock new capabilities through AI-native infrastructure, Cruz underscored that what matters most to customers is a connection that works when they need it.</p>



<p>For the Philippines, where geography and natural disasters continue to challenge infrastructure, this approach is critical. Globe highlighted the importance of hybrid connectivity models that combine terrestrial networks with satellite technologies to ensure continuous service across more than 7,000 islands.</p>



<p>“Resilience is no longer optional. It is the standard people expect,” Cruz said. “A stable connection that holds under pressure is far more valuable than speed that cannot be sustained.”</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Strengthening trust in a high-risk digital environment</strong></h3>



<p>In a separate engagement focused on online security, Globe underscored the urgency of strengthening digital trust as scams and cyber threats escalate globally. The company noted that in the Philippines, suspected fraud rates have reached 13 percent, more than double the global average of 5 percent, while 34 percent of users have experienced scams.</p>



<p>These risks are rising alongside the rapid expansion of the digital economy, which is projected to reach $36 billion. Globally, scams have already resulted in an estimated $1 trillion in losses, reinforcing the need for stronger safeguards across networks and platforms.</p>



<p>“Trust is the backbone of the digital economy,” Cruz said. “If people do not feel safe, they disengage. That is why security, privacy, and accountability must be built into the network from the start.”</p>



<p>Globe shared that it has taken an active role in strengthening protection at scale, blocking 967 million scam and spam messages and more than 17,000 malicious domains in 2025 alone, alongside programs that engaged nearly 17,000 users to build digital safety awareness.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>A disciplined path to 6G</strong></h3>



<p>Across both engagements, Globe maintained that innovation must translate into real-world value. As the industry begins shaping the 6G roadmap, the company is advocating for early engagement while remaining grounded in practical use cases and sustainable investments.</p>



<p>Cruz highlighted the importance of regional collaboration, noting that Asia-Pacific’s diversity offers a unique opportunity to develop and scale solutions across different environments, from dense urban centers to remote communities.</p>



<p>“We are not chasing technology for its own sake,” he said. “We are focused on what it enables. Better services, stronger economies, and a more secure digital environment for everyone.”</p>



<p>As the telecommunications industry moves toward the next phase of innovation, Globe emphasized that progress must be guided by responsibility, ensuring reliable connectivity across both urban centers and hard-to-reach communities as digital transformation accelerates.</p>

<p><strong>MANILA, Philippines</strong> — LG Electronics Philippines intorduces the 15/8KG Slim Front Load Combo Washer Dryer with AI Direct Drive<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> and Pet Care Wash Cycle (F2515RNEG), a laundry solution designed to help households manage clothing care more efficiently during the summer months. Combining intelligent fabric care, fast washing, steam hygiene and smart connectivity, the washer dryer supports everyday routines in a compact, space-saving design.</p>



<p><strong>Smarter Fabric Care for Everyday Laundry</strong></p>



<p>At the core of the washer dryer is AI DD<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> (Artificial Intelligence Direct Drive), which detects fabric characteristics and adjusts washing motions accordingly. Whether washing loungewear, activewear or daily essentials, the feature helps care for garments more thoughtfully while maintaining effective cleaning performance.</p>



<p>For users balancing packed schedules, TurboWash<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> 360 helps complete a thorough wash in as fast as 39 minutes, making it easier to refresh clothes between workouts, errands and weekend plans.</p>



<p><strong>Hygiene Support for Frequently Worn Items</strong></p>



<p>For items that require extra care during warmer weather, Steam<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> helps reduce 99.9% of dust mites that may cause allergies. This supports better hygiene for frequently worn clothing and household fabrics.</p>



<p>The washer dryer is also powered by LG’s Inverter Direct Drive<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> motor, designed for stable and efficient performance without the use of belts or pulleys.</p>



<p><strong>Designed for Modern Homes</strong></p>



<p>Built for modern living spaces, the washer dryer features a slimmer body with a spacious drum, offering up to 125mm of space-saving convenience without compromising capacity. The design makes it easier for households to integrate the appliance into homes where efficient use of space matters.</p>



<p><strong>Smart Convenience with LG ThinQ<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></strong></p>



<p>Through LG ThinQ<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />, users can check laundry status, download additional cycles and monitor energy usage from compatible smart devices. These features help make laundry care more manageable, especially on busy days.</p>



<p>For pet owners, the Pet Care Cycle via LG ThinQ<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> is designed to handle heavily soiled items using high-temperature washing and warm rinsing to help reduce up to 99% of pet odors.</p>



<p><strong>Why It Matters</strong></p>



<p>Summer often brings more time outdoors, more frequent outfit changes and more laundry from travel, workouts and daily activities. With features designed to support fabric care, washing speed, hygiene and smart monitoring, LG’s Front Load Washer Dryer Combo helps households manage laundry more efficiently while keeping clothes fresh throughout the season.</p>



<p>Changhee Doh, Product Director for Home Solutions, LG Electronics Philippines, said, <em>“Summer often means more movement—whether it’s spending time outdoors, traveling, or simply keeping up with everyday routines in warmer weather. With the LG Front Load AI Combo Washer Dryer, we designed a solution that helps simplify clothing care, so users can spend less time worrying about laundry and more time enjoying the season.”</em></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p><strong>MANILA</strong> — The Philippines has <strong>248 public‑private partnership (PPP) projects</strong> valued at <strong>PHP2.94 trillion</strong> currently in the pipeline, highlighting the government’s continued push to tap private sector participation in major infrastructure development, according to data from the <strong>Public‑Private Partnership (PPP) Center</strong>.</p>



<p>As of Monday, <strong>166 projects worth PHP2.81 trillion</strong> are slated for implementation by the <strong>national government</strong>, while the remaining <strong>82 projects valued at PHP134.82 billion</strong> will be carried out by <strong>local government units (LGUs)</strong>.</p>



<p>The pipeline reflects a strong concentration on large‑scale transport infrastructure. <strong>Railway projects</strong> account for the largest share, with a combined value of <strong>PHP2.07 trillion</strong>, underscoring the government’s priority to expand and modernize the country’s mass transit systems. This is followed by <strong>aviation projects</strong> amounting to <strong>PHP1.26 trillion</strong>, and <strong>road infrastructure projects</strong> worth <strong>PHP944.77 billion</strong>.</p>



<p>Geographically, most of the proposed PPP projects are located in key economic regions, including the <strong>National Capital Region (NCR)</strong>, <strong>Central Luzon</strong>, and <strong>Calabarzon</strong>, areas seen as critical growth corridors due to their population density, industrial activity, and connectivity needs.</p>



<p>The expanding PPP pipeline comes as the government recalibrates its financing strategy amid changes in the country’s economic standing. <strong>Finance Secretary Frederick Go</strong> has earlier emphasized that the Philippines will increasingly rely on PPPs as an alternative funding mechanism as access to concessional loans becomes more limited.</p>



<p>“We will be less reliant on concessional loans once the country moves into an upper‑middle class. So we will have to find other sources of financing,” Go said.</p>



<p>PPP arrangements allow the government to leverage private capital, technical expertise, and operational efficiencies while accelerating the delivery of essential infrastructure projects. Officials have repeatedly cited PPPs as a key tool for sustaining infrastructure development without placing excessive pressure on public finances.</p>



<p>The PPP Center has said the growing pipeline signals strong investor interest and continued collaboration between the public and private sectors, particularly in sectors critical to economic competitiveness, mobility, and regional development.</p>



<p>With infrastructure demand expected to rise alongside economic growth, policymakers see PPPs as a long‑term strategy to support modernization efforts while maintaining fiscal sustainability. (<a href="https://www.pna.gov.ph/articles/1271558">PNA</a>)</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p><strong>SEOUL, &nbsp;</strong>— LG Electronics (LG) is introducing the LG PuriCare<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> AeroMini, a compact air purifier designed to deliver powerful, reliable air purification in a space-efficient form. Featuring 360-degree airflow, smart connectivity and flexible placement, the AeroMini expands LG’s air care portfolio for modern residential environments<sup>1</sup>&nbsp;such as bedrooms, children’s rooms and single room apartments.</p>



<p><strong>Slim, Space-Efficient Design</strong></p>



<p>The LG PuriCare AeroMini features a slim, compact form designed to blend easily into a variety of interiors. Its footprint is approximately 37 percent smaller and its height 30 percent lower than the LG PuriCare 360˚ Hit, improving placement flexibility.<sup>2</sup>&nbsp;The device can be positioned on the floor, tabletop or shelving without occupying significant space. A concealed filter cover at the base maintains a clean exterior appearance, allowing the product to blend with different interior styles.</p>



<p><strong>360-Degree Air Purification Performance</strong></p>



<p>Despite its compact size, the AeroMini provides powerful and comprehensive performance synonymous with the PuriCare name. It inherits the brand’s 360-degree airflow structure, drawing in air from all directions and distributing purified air upwards and outwards to help clean the surrounding space. The system employs a three-layer H Filter, combining dust and deodorization filtration. The filter is certified to remove 99.999 percent of ultra-fine dust particles as small as 0.01 micrometers and removes various harmful substances from the indoor environment, including airborne bacteria, viruses and mold particles.<sup>3</sup>&nbsp;At the same time, the product operates at noise levels as low as 26dB in Sleep Mode, supporting quiet operation for rest or focused activities.<sup>4</sup></p>



<p><strong>Smart Control and Personalization</strong></p>



<p>The LG ThinQ<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> app lets users remotely control functions and monitor indoor air quality. On-device controls provide direct operation of essential functions, while a four-color indicator communicates real-time air quality status. The all-in-one filter design supports quick replacement for simplified maintenance.</p>



<p>&nbsp;The AeroMini also includes a modular accessory attachment structure. Optional accessories – such as a leather carry handle or flower holder – allow users to personalize the device and adapt it to different use environments.<sup>5</sup></p>



<p>“The LG PuriCare<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> AeroMini delivers the powerful performance customers expect from our trusted air care solutions, along with a compact and flexible design that fits the way people live today,” said James Lee, president of the LG ES Company. “LG will continue to expand its air care portfolio, leveraging a deep understanding of modern living environments to bring meaningful value to consumers’ everyday lives.”</p>



<p>&nbsp;The LG PuriCare AeroMini is scheduled to launch in Southeast Asia in the first half of this year, beginning with Vietnam.</p>

<p>Samsung’s Smart Wash Business Solutions to Introduce an All-in-One Laundry Business Setup in PH</p>



<p>Starting a business sounds exciting—until you’re the one dealing with setup, suppliers, permits, systems, and the day-to-day grind that comes after. For many business owners today, it’s not about whether they <em>can</em> start a business—it’s whether it’s still worth the operational weight that comes with it.</p>



<p>That’s exactly where Samsung’s upcoming <a href="https://smartwashbusinesssolutions.com/"><strong>Smart Wash Business Solutions</strong></a> initiative is starting to get attention.</p>



<p>Set to be formally introduced on <strong>March 25, 2026 </strong>at the <strong>SMX Convention Center in Mall of Asia</strong>, the <strong>Smart Wash Business Solutions</strong> event is expected to present a more streamlined approach to entering the commercial laundry space—one that is already organized from the ground up.</p>



<p>Instead of leaving business owners to piece everything together on their own, Samsung is bringing together a complete ecosystem that supports both the setup and operation of a commercial laundry facility. This includes not just the washers and dryers themselves, but also connectivity through SmartThings, utility partners such as LPG and telco providers, machine-safe detergent partners, and even financing and banking support—all aligned within a single system.</p>



<p>At the center of this initiative is <a href="https://www.cyaindustries.com/"><strong>CYA Industries Inc.</strong>,</a> a longtime and trusted Samsung dealer in the Philippines since 2001. As co-presenter of the event, CYA Industries Inc. leads the deployment side of the business—from installation and system configuration to operational onboarding—ensuring that each site is properly set up and ready for real-world use from day one.</p>



<p>This creates a more structured way of entering a business that has traditionally required multiple moving parts to manage. Instead of building from scratch, the <strong>Smart Wash Business Solutions </strong>model brings together the key components needed to operate, allowing business owners to focus more on running and growing the business rather than assembling it.</p>



<p>The system is also supported by <strong>Samsung’s SmartThings platform</strong>, which integrates connected machines with monitoring capabilities. While full details are expected to be revealed during the event, the direction points toward a more efficient way of managing daily operations through connected technology.</p>



<p>The March 25 event is shaping up to be more than just a product showcase.

<p>Pueblo de Oro honored with Silver Award at Chinabank Real Estate Developers’ Night</p>



<p><strong>MAKATI CITY</strong> — <strong>Pueblo de Oro Development Corporation</strong>, a residential property developer under the <strong>ICCP Group</strong>, was recognized with a <strong>Silver Award</strong> at <strong>Chinabank’s 2025 Real Estate Developers’ Night</strong>, held at <strong>The Fifth, Rockwell</strong> in Makati. The recognition highlights the company’s growing contribution to Chinabank’s housing finance portfolio and its continued commitment to delivering quality residential developments.</p>



<p>The Silver Award marks an improvement from Pueblo de Oro’s <strong>Bronze Award</strong> received the previous year, reflecting strengthened collaboration with Chinabank through its <strong>HomePlus home loan program</strong>, which aims to make housing finance more accessible and convenient for Filipino homebuyers.</p>



<p>“We are honored to be recognized once again by Chinabank, and this Silver Award reflects the trust and confidence placed in our projects and communities,” said <strong>Prim Nolido</strong>, President and Chief Operating Officer of Pueblo de Oro Development Corporation. “It inspires us to further strengthen our collaboration with Chinabank in making quality homes more accessible to Filipino families.”</p>



<p>Chinabank’s annual <strong>Real Estate Developers’ Night</strong> recognizes accredited developer‑partners that play a key role in expanding the bank’s real estate loan portfolio. The event underscores the importance of collaboration between financial institutions and developers in promoting sustainable housing development and responsible property investment.</p>



<p>Over the years, Pueblo de Oro has established a strong reputation for developing <strong>master‑planned, eco‑friendly, and sustainable residential communities</strong> in emerging growth areas across the country, including <strong>Batangas, Cebu, Pampanga, and Cagayan de Oro</strong>. Its projects are designed to support long‑term livability by integrating modern amenities, open spaces, and environmentally responsible planning.</p>



<p>With more than <strong>three decades of experience</strong> in the real estate industry, Pueblo de Oro continues to focus on creating thoughtfully designed neighborhoods that respond to the evolving needs of Filipino families. The company emphasizes balanced community development—combining functionality, sustainability, and quality of life.</p>



<p>The Silver Award recognition reflects not only Pueblo de Oro’s strong performance as a Chinabank partner but also its broader mission to help families achieve homeownership through well‑planned communities and accessible financing options.</p>



<p>As Pueblo de Oro continues to expand its residential footprint, the company remains committed to working closely with financial partners like Chinabank to support inclusive growth in the Philippine housing sector.</p>



<p>&#8212;</p>



<p><strong>About Pueblo de Oro Development Corporation</strong></p>



<p>For over thirty years, Pueblo de Oro Development Corporation (PDO) has been developing quality and mixed-use townships and residential projects. Committed to excellence, Pueblo de Oro has achieved recognition from local and international awards institutions for its innovative, high-quality yet affordable offerings of residential communities and townships in booming areas like Cagayan de Oro; Malvar, Lipa, Batangas City, and Santo Tomas in Batangas; San Fernando, Pampanga; and Carcar and Lapu Lapu City in Cebu.</p>



<p>The Chamber of Real Estate &amp; Builders&#8217; Associations, Inc. (CREBA) recognized Pueblo de Oro as one of the &#8220;Developers of the Decade – Mindanao&#8221; during the 2023 CREBA Pillar Awards for its pioneering 400-hectare township in Cagayan de Oro City.</p>

]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are the driving force of the Philippine economy, making up 63% of the country’s total employment and contributing 36% to its gross value added, according to the World Bank Group. As 2026 unfolds, SMEs must continue to adapt to shifting customer needs and evolving market demands. Here are five practical strategies local businesses can apply to sustain and scale their growth this year:&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>#1 Upskill to Unlock Growth</strong></p>



<p>Business owners are often jacks-of-all-trades, wearing multiple hats in running their enterprises. To keep up, they must continue investing in upskilling to manage these roles more effectively. Whether it’s improving customer engagement or implementing a new order and payment system, business owners can take advantage of the vast array of online upskilling courses.<br>&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>#2 Build a Stronger Digital Presence</strong></p>



<p>Filipinos spend an average of 8 hours and 52 minutes online each day, landing the Philippines at third in the world for daily internet use. Not only that, social media is especially powerful in promoting businesses, as 42.5% of Filipinos discover new shops to support there. Thus, a strong digital presence is no longer optional for businesses—it&#8217;s essential to staying visible and competitive. The visibility boost also turns casual window shoppers into loyal customers, as this fosters a lasting connection online.&nbsp;</p>



<p>For starters, businesses can set up a social media storefront, join an online marketplace, or build a dedicated website. They can also bolster their social media engagement by responding to netizens’ inquiries and posting about new product launches. These steps allow SMEs to reach customers far beyond their immediate neighborhoods and build stronger relationships over time.&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>#3 Reach Out to Freelancers </strong><strong><br></strong>The Philippines is home to around 1.5 million active freelancers, making it one of the largest gig economies in the world. SMEs can take advantage of this by tapping services such as virtual assistance, consultation, and graphic design to support their operations. Some businesses can even venture into offering online support services of their own, opening up new revenue streams in the process.<br><br><strong>#4 Tap Government and NGO Support&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p>Government agencies and non-government organizations continue to expand their support programs to help SMEs grow their capital and strengthen their operations. These span funding assistance, training programs, and upskilling initiatives.&nbsp;</p>



<p>For instance, the Department of Science and Technology-NCR (DOST-NCR) has launched the Small Enterprise Technology Upgrading Program (SET-UP). The program offers seed funding, equipment upgrading, and business upscaling support for entrepreneurs.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Programs such as this showcase the breadth of support SMEs can tap to reach more customers and grow more sustainably. Beyond funding, they also open doors for networking and partnership opportunities.&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>#5 Find Partners Who Value Your Growth&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p>Partnerships matter—and so does having the right network. SMEs <strong>benefit from building</strong> both on-ground and peer-to-peer communities. These networks can become invaluable resources for business owners for knowledge-building, potential collaborations, or even new business opportunities.&nbsp;</p>



<p>One partner SMEs can tap is EastWest Ageas, a fast-rising insurance company. Through EastWest Ageas’ simple plans, business owners can protect and grow their enterprises’ capital and build emergency funds. Plans such as Future Assure and Future Assure Max help policyholders invest in EastWest Ageas’ diverse fund choices and work toward maximizing their investment returns. These features help entrepreneurs tailor their financial strategy to what their business needs the most.&nbsp;</p>



<p>To stay competitive in 2026, SMEs must continue recalibrating their strategies to keep pace with change. By adapting to emerging and shifting trends and reaching out to like-minded partners, SMEs can turn today’s momentum into long-term, lasting impact.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p><strong>Manila, Philippines </strong>— As AI moves from pilots to business-critical deployment, the issue is no longer access. Itʼs trust. Open source tools support that trust by keeping core components inspectable and standardizable, enabling stronger oversight across modern AI systems. Today, <a href="https://www.dataiku.com/?utm_source=newswire&amp;utm_medium=press-release&amp;utm_campaign=575Lab">Dataiku</a> announced the launch of the <a href="http://www.dataiku.com/company/dataiku-for-the-future/open-source/?utm_source=newswire&amp;utm_medium=press-release&amp;utm_campaign=575Lab">575 Lab, Dataiku&#8217;s Open Source Office</a>. The 575 Lab will release two new open-source toolkits designed to help enterprises make AI systems more transparent, governable, and fit for real-world use.</p>



<p>The 575 Lab will focus on delivering deployable tools that strengthen explainability, privacy, and governance across modern AI and agentic systems. The two initial open-source projects will be:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Agent Explainability Tools </strong>that will help teams trace and understand decision-making across multi-step agent workflows, making agent decisions transparent for data scientists, compliance teams, and end users.</li>



<li><strong>Privacy-Preserving Proxies </strong>that will enable safer use of closed-source models by protecting sensitive data end-to-end, and that teams will be able to run locally.</li>
</ul>



<p>Both projects will be designed to support responsible enterprise AI, with a focus on reliability, security, transparency, and explainability.</p>



<p>“Open source isnʼt just a distribution model—itʼs a trust model,” said Hannes Hapke, Director of the 575 Lab. “As AI systems become more autonomous and more consequential, enterprises need tools they can inspect, verify, and adapt. By building these foundations in the open, weʼre helping teams to manage risk and use AI responsibly.”</p>



<p>575 Lab turns Dataikuʼs decade of enterprise AI experience into open source tools that help enterprises see what AI is doing and stay in control. As a member of the Linux Foundation and the new Agentic AI Foundation, Dataiku is doing this work in close collaboration with the community.</p>



<p>“Enterprises are building increasingly complex agentic ecosystems,” said Florian Douetteau, CEO and co-founder of Dataiku. &#8220;To make them safer to use, they need reusable building blocks that can become the standards for how agentic systems are controlled and inspected. The 575 Lab is contributing to open source to foster the community from which those standards will emerge.&#8221;</p>



<h1 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Availability</strong></h1>



<p>The 575 Lab is now available to the community of AI specialists, data scientists, and developers responsible for creating, deploying, and scaling AI agents and applications within their organizations. Developers, data leaders, and partners can follow the projects, join the contributor community, and</p>



<p>help shape the open trust infrastructure required for enterprise AI at scale.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>About Dataiku</strong></h1>



<p><a href="https://www.dataiku.com/?utm_source=newswire&amp;utm_medium=press-release&amp;utm_campaign=575Lab">Dataiku</a> is The Universal AI Platform<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />, uniting human expertise and AI reasoning to power trusted intelligence at scale.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>Globe Telecom closed 2025 with record-breaking results, proving that every gigabyte can deliver real value, not just for customers, but for communities across the Philippines. Mobile data revenues reached a record ₱101.2 billion, accounting for 87% of total mobile service revenues, while total mobile data traffic soared to 6,614 petabytes. Globe’s mobile subscriber base now stands at 65.8 million, demonstrating the company’s broad reach and strong market position.</p>



<p><strong>Affordable Connectivity for Every Household</strong></p>



<p>Globe Prepaid makes reliable internet more accessible with budget-friendly, flexible plans. TM offers low-denomination promos like FBML15, ₱15 for 1 GB Facebook &amp; Messenger data valid for 3 days and EasySURF50 5G, which gives 9 GB total data plus unlimited all-net texts for 3 days for savvier users.</p>



<p>Prepaid mobile plans start at ₱99 for 20 GB (all-access, app-specific, and 5G data), while GFiber Prepaid brings unlimited fiber internet at ₱299/7 days, ₱549/15 days, and ₱999/30 days. Over 820,000 households now enjoy high-speed internet at home without long-term contracts, staying connected for education, work, and daily life.</p>



<p><strong>Meaningful Use of Prepaid Products</strong></p>



<p>These prepaid options go beyond affordability by enabling meaningful digital engagement for Filipinos. Students can access online classes and learning platforms, freelancers and remote workers can remain productive from home, and families can connect with loved ones or enjoy digital entertainment without financial strain.</p>



<p>Globe Go+ subscribers receive free vouchers with each registration, including ₱180 off a 3-month Canva subscription, 15% off Grab rides (min ₱250, max ₱50), 20% off Move It (min ₱50, max ₱10), 500 bonus coins from ShortMax, and ₱100 off Zalora purchases (min ₱1,000). Go+ also provides AI access from its GoSHARE or GoLEARN bundle for social media or learning and productivity apps, including Canva’s AI-powered tools for creating and designing projects.</p>



<p>Together with Globe At Home broadband, now 91% fiber-based, GFiber Prepaid, and the portable 5G WiFi Loop, Globe reinforces its commitment to providing flexible and reliable connectivity that meets the needs of modern households.</p>



<p><strong>Turning Everyday Usage into Social Impact with GoGIVE</strong></p>



<p>Globe Prepaid takes connectivity a step further by turning everyday data usage into social good through GoGIVE. As subscribers browse, stream, game, or use their mobile data for any online activity, they automatically earn “hearts” that support important advocacies such as digital literacy, child welfare, forest conservation, frontline medical training, and animal welfare.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Since March 2025, GoGIVE has generated 4.3 billion hearts from over 70,000 contributors, building vibrant online communities of changemakers. The program has also provided timely support during critical events, from typhoons to earthquakes, turning routine mobile activity into a lifeline for vulnerable communities.</p>



<p><strong>Data Driving Tangible Outcomes</strong></p>



<p>“Our 2025 results show that Globe is not only growing traffic; we are turning every gigabyte into real, everyday impact for our customers and communities,” said Carl Raymond R. Cruz, Globe President and CEO. “Through affordable prepaid plans, GFiber Prepaid, and programs like GoGIVE, we are enabling Filipinos to work, learn, connect, and give back. Every innovation we deliver is designed to make life better, more convenient, and more meaningful.”</p>



<p>As data usage continues to grow, Globe remains committed to transforming connectivity into opportunities, ensuring that each gigabyte contributes not just to business growth but to improving daily lives and empowering communities.</p>

<p>Another uplifting&nbsp;addition<sup>4</sup>&nbsp;is&nbsp;<em>My Little Puppy</em>,&nbsp;a&nbsp;heartwarming&nbsp;adventure game published by Krafton&nbsp;and&nbsp;offered by Blacknut, in which players follow the story&nbsp;of&nbsp;a&nbsp;dog&nbsp;as he embarks on&nbsp;a&nbsp;journey&nbsp;of&nbsp;relationships, farewells&nbsp;and reunions.&nbsp;LG&nbsp;Smart&nbsp;TVs&nbsp;bring the lifelike details&nbsp;and vivid scenery&nbsp;of&nbsp;the game’s world&nbsp;to&nbsp;life on the big screen&nbsp;and subtly draw players into&nbsp;its&nbsp;emotional depth.</p>



<p>With&nbsp;a&nbsp;growing ecosystem&nbsp;of&nbsp;games, such&nbsp;as&nbsp;Asphalt Legends Unite&nbsp;and My Little Puppy,&nbsp;LG&nbsp;has made it easier&nbsp;to&nbsp;also play with&nbsp;a&nbsp;smartphone through&nbsp;LG’s&nbsp;new&nbsp;Wi-Fi-based mobile gamepad&nbsp;app.&nbsp;LG&nbsp;Mobile Gamepad Wi-Fi,<sup>5</sup>&nbsp;now&nbsp;available on both&nbsp;Android&nbsp;and iOS,&nbsp;allows&nbsp;smartphones&nbsp;to&nbsp;operate&nbsp;as controllers, enabling&nbsp;a&nbsp;seamless, hassle-free experience for supported&nbsp;games.</p>
