  1. Crypto天潤雲2026中期業績:AI收入增長133% 第二曲線驅動淨利大增78%香港, 2026年9月1日 - 2026年8月28日,天潤雲(2167.HK)發佈2026年中期業績,2026年上半年收入達2.88億元人民幣(下同),淨利潤達4925.5萬元,同比增長78%;盈利大增的核心驅動,是受AI業務帶動及運營效率提升,公司AI解決方案收入提升至4245萬元,較去年同期增長133.1%,收入貢獻占比超過14.7%。這不是一次性的業績脈衝,而是天潤雲自2025年確立"AI優先"戰略以來,第二增長曲線持續兌現的里程碑節點。從"SaaS工具商"到"AI原生生產力平臺",天潤雲正以AI為支點,重構整個客戶聯絡行業的價值邏輯與商業範式。 第二曲線爆發:AI解決方案的ARR狂奔 天潤雲的第二曲線,已經不是"初露鋒芒",而是"全面放量"。 AI產品ARR的快速突破,為2026年中期業績提供了極高的收入可見度。截至2026年6月30日,公司AI解決方案的年度經常性收入(ARR)已達8600萬元,7月底突破1億元,2026年全年該業務的收入增長已具備堅實基礎。 更值得關注的是AI解決方案的占比大幅提升,標誌著增長結構的根本性優化。在客戶聯絡這一垂直賽道,AI相關收入占比接近15%是一個標誌性閾值——它意味著AI不再是SaaS主業的補充,而是成為了獨立的、可規模化的增長極。 支撐這一切的,是天潤雲自研的AI生產力平臺ZENAVA。2026上半年,ZENAVA單日平臺的Token調用量突破300億大關,反映平臺處理AI驅動對話的數量和深度,意味著公司已經具備支撐大規模企業級AI應用的基座能力。平臺在數億次月度交互中積累的閉環決策數據,構成了競爭對手難以通過演算法單獨追趕的數據飛輪。 AI產品的商業化引擎,已經跑通了"調用量攀升→客戶擴購→ARR累積→收入確認"的完整飛輪。2026上半年超過65%的新簽約客戶選擇了公司的AI解決方案,AI解決方案正在從"加分項"變為"必選項"。目前,天潤雲已為超過180家企業客戶交付AI數字員工解決方案,覆蓋服務諮詢、業務辦理、精准營銷、商戶運營、到店預約等端到端業務流程。 商業模式重構:從"賣坐席"到"賣結果",客戶留存率大幅提升 比收入數字更深刻的,是天潤雲商業模式的底層重構。公司明確表述:"我們的商業模式正從傳統的'按坐席訂閱'演進為與可衡量的業務成果(如已完成的工單及交易轉化)掛鉤的結果定價"。這一句話,揭示了天潤雲在AI時代的真正野心。 從坐席訂閱到"流量+結果"定價,是價值捕獲方式的本質躍遷。傳統SaaS按坐席數收費,而天潤雲的AI數字員工,按照處理的對話量、完成的業務筆數、帶來的轉化提升等可量化指標進行定價。這種"流量+結果"的模式帶來三重紅利: 收入彈性打開:客戶業務量越大、AI替代人力越多,天潤雲捕獲的價值就越大,不再受限於坐席數的物理天花板 客戶粘性深化:當定價與業務成果掛鉤,天潤雲的AI產品就與客戶的核心KPI深度綁定,成為"業務夥伴"而非"軟體供應商" 毛利結構改善:2026上半年AI解決方案毛利率達66%,較2025年同期提升2.7個百分點 AI業務的留存品質,遠高於傳統SaaS業務,這是商業模式重構最有力的佐證。2026上半年,天潤雲AI數字員工的客戶留存率高達92.6%,以金額為基礎的淨留存率(NDR)為125.8%。結果定價模式下,AI業務與客戶業務成果深度綁定,客戶一旦體驗到"AI替代人力"的ROI,就會從單點試用走向全鏈路部署——這也正是ARR能夠持續高速累積的根本原因。 例如,中報裏提到某支付行業巨頭,通過50個AI語音智能體承擔了75個傳統人力崗位,實現年度運營成本降低900萬元;另外,某頭部智能門鎖品牌,通過部署AI數字員工實現了AI獨立接待率提升至86%,累計節省了超過50%的人力成本。 寫在最後:從工具到生產力,天潤雲重新定義客戶聯絡 在AI Agent重塑客戶聯絡行業的浪潮中,天潤雲已經佔據了"垂直AI生產力平臺"的有利地形,完成從"工具交付"向"AI生產力"的跨越。當第二曲線的爆發遇上商業模式的重構,天潤雲正在書寫的,是一個關於企業如何借助AI實現客戶聯絡範式飛躍的樣本——而這個故事,才剛剛開始。
  2. Crypto天润云2026中期业绩:AI收入增长133% 第二曲线驱动净利大增78%香港, 2026年9月1日 - (亚太商讯) - 2026年8月28日,天润云(2167.HK)发布2026年中期业绩,2026年上半年收入达2.88亿元人民币(下同),净利润达4925.5万元,同比增长78%;盈利大增的核心驱动,是受AI业务带动及运营效率提升,公司AI解决方案收入提升至4245万元,较去年同期增长133.1%,收入贡献占比超过14.7%。这不是一次性的业绩脉冲,而是天润云自2025年确立"AI优先"战略以来,第二增长曲线持续兑现的里程碑节点。从"SaaS工具商"到"AI原生生产力平台",天润云正以AI为支点,重构整个客户联络行业的价值逻辑与商业范式。 第二曲线爆发:AI解决方案的ARR狂奔 天润云的第二曲线,已经不是"初露锋芒",而是"全面放量"。 AI产品ARR的快速突破,为2026年中期业绩提供了极高的收入可见度。截至2026年6月30日,公司AI解决方案的年度经常性收入(ARR)已达8600万元,7月底突破1亿元,2026年全年该业务的收入增长已具备坚实基础。 更值得关注的是AI解决方案的占比大幅提升,标志着增长结构的根本性优化。在客户联络这一垂直赛道,AI相关收入占比接近15%是一个标志性阈值——它意味着AI不再是SaaS主业的补充,而是成为了独立的、可规模化的增长极。 支撑这一切的,是天润云自研的AI生产力平台ZENAVA。2026上半年,ZENAVA单日平台的Token调用量突破300亿大关,反映平台处理AI驱动对话的数量和深度,意味着公司已经具备支撑大规模企业级AI应用的基座能力。平台在数亿次月度交互中积累的闭环决策数据,构成了竞争对手难以通过算法单独追赶的数据飞轮。 AI产品的商业化引擎,已经跑通了"调用量攀升→客户扩购→ARR累积→收入确认"的完整飞轮。2026上半年超过65%的新签约客户选择了公司的AI解决方案,AI解决方案正在从"加分项"变为"必选项"。目前,天润云已为超过180家企业客户交付AI数字员工解决方案,覆盖服务咨询、业务办理、精准营销、商户运营、到店预约等端到端业务流程。 商业模式重构:从"卖坐席"到"卖结果",客户留存率大幅提升 比收入数字更深刻的,是天润云商业模式的底层重构。公司明确表述:"我们的商业模式正从传统的'按坐席订阅'演进为与可衡量的业务成果(如已完成的工单及交易转化)挂钩的结果定价"。这一句话,揭示了天润云在AI时代的真正野心。 从坐席订阅到"流量+结果"定价,是价值捕获方式的本质跃迁。传统SaaS按坐席数收费,而天润云的AI数字员工,按照处理的对话量、完成的业务笔数、带来的转化提升等可量化指标进行定价。这种"流量+结果"的模式带来三重红利: 收入弹性打开:客户业务量越大、AI替代人力越多,天润云捕获的价值就越大,不再受限于坐席数的物理天花板 客户粘性深化:当定价与业务成果挂钩,天润云的AI产品就与客户的核心KPI深度绑定,成为"业务伙伴"而非"软件供应商" 毛利结构改善:2026上半年AI解决方案毛利率达66%,较2025年同期提升2.7个百分点 AI业务的留存质量,远高于传统SaaS业务,这是商业模式重构最有力的佐证。2026上半年,天润云AI数字员工的客户留存率高达92.6%,以金额为基础的净留存率(NDR)为125.8%。结果定价模式下,AI业务与客户业务成果深度绑定,客户一旦体验到"AI替代人力"的ROI,就会从单点试用走向全链路部署——这也正是ARR能够持续高速累积的根本原因。 例如,中报里提到某支付行业巨头,通过50个AI语音智能体承担了75个传统人力岗位,实现年度运营成本降低900万元;另外,某头部智能门锁品牌,通过部署AI数字员工实现了AI独立接待率提升至86%,累计节省了超过50%的人力成本。 写在最后:从工具到生产力,天润云重新定义客户联络 在AI Agent重塑客户联络行业的浪潮中,天润云已经占据了"垂直AI生产力平台"的有利地形,完成从"工具交付"向"AI生产力"的跨越。当第二曲线的爆发遇上商业模式的重构,天润云正在书写的,是一个关于企业如何借助AI实现客户联络范式飞跃的样本——而这个故事,才刚刚开始。 Copyright 2026 亚太商讯.

  8. AIGLOBAL POWER SOLUTIONS PROVIDES UPDATE ON POTENTIAL REACTIVATION OF PERU HOSPITAL PROJECTGlobal Power Solutions Corp. (TSXV: PWER) (FSE: NJA) (“Global Power” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update regarding the potential reactivation of a previously announced hospital development project in Peru involving EsSalud, Peru’s Social Health Insurance authority. The Company’s predecessor, Minaean SP Construction Corp., previously entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with EsSalud in connection with the proposed development and construction of a 224-bed hospital in Chiclayo, Lambayeque Province, Peru. The project did not advance during the period of political and administrative change in Peru, and the previous MOU has since expired. Representatives of the current EsSalud administration have recently expressed interest in reopening discussions regarding the proposed hospital project and potentially negotiating a new MOU with Global Power. The Company expects to receive formal correspondence from EsSalud regarding potential next steps. Should discussions progress, a new MOU would be required before the parties could proceed with further project development. Pete Medved, President and Chief Executive Officer of Global Power Solutions Corp., commented: “We are encouraged by the renewed interest in this project. The original hospital initiative represented a significant infrastructure opportunity for the Company, and we welcome the opportunity to re-engage with EsSalud and determine whether a new framework can be established to move the project forward. Our immediate focus will be on confirming the project requirements with EsSalud, reconnecting with our Canadian partners and evaluating an appropriate structure for potential Canadian participation.” Potential Canadian Consortium and Project Structure The previous project framework contemplated the formation of a Canadian consortium and potential participation by the Canadian Commercial Corporation (“CCC”), together with potential export-credit financing. If discussions with EsSalud progress, Global Power intends to re-engage with potential Canadian project partners and explore an appropriate consortium structure for consideration by CCC. Any participation by CCC, Export Development Canada (“EDC”) or another export credit agency would remain subject to their respective due diligence, review and approval processes. No financing arrangements or CCC participation have been finalized in connection with a renewed project. Next Steps Subject to further discussions with EsSalud, the Company anticipates that potential next steps may include: * receiving formal communication from EsSalud regarding the proposed reactivation of the project; * reviewing and confirming the current scope and requirements of the proposed hospital; * negotiating a new MOU with EsSalud; * re-engaging with potential Canadian consortium partners; and * evaluating potential project delivery and financing structures, including possible engagement with CCC and applicable export credit agencies. The Company will provide further updates if and when material developments occur. There can be no assurance that a new MOU will be executed, that CCC or any export credit agency will participate in the project, that financing will be obtained, or that the proposed hospital project will proceed on its previously contemplated terms or at all.

For over a decade, Hong Kong has brought together government and business leaders from Belt and Road countries and regions to deepen local, regional economic and trade ties through this signature event. With the theme of Advancing High-quality Development - Embarking on a New Journey, this year’s Belt and Road Summit will explore fresh potential arising from new patterns of regional cooperation in trade, investment and development among Belt and Road and other markets, particularly ASEAN, Central Asia and the Middle East. Presenting insights from nearly 100 distinguished policymakers and business leaders, new multifaceted thematic showcases and business matching activities, this year’s Summit offers a wealth of knowledge, extensive networks and quality investment and business opportunities, facilitated through Hong Kong, the global business platform that connects the Chinese Mainland and the world. The 11th Belt and Road Summit will be held from 9 to 10 September (Wednesday to Thursday) at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre in Wan Chai. In 2025 (shown in photo), the event’s 10th edition attracted 6,200 participants from 70+ countries and regions. The picture shows the Belt and Road Summit in 2025. Anna Cheung, Associate Executive Director of the HKTDC, said: "Amid the reconfiguration of the global economic landscape, Hong Kong has been both an important platform for Mainland enterprises to go global and a preferred gateway for international enterprises to enter the Mainland and Asian markets. As a core member of the GoGlobal Task Force which was established by the HKSAR Government to facilitate enterprises to go global, the HKTDC has been leveraging Hong Kong’s strengths as an international business and investment platform to facilitate cooperation. To further support Mainland enterprises in tapping opportunities in the Belt and Road and other emerging markets, this year’s Belt and Road Summit will introduce a dedicated Go Global Chapter, featuring thematic breakout sessions focusing on go global opportunities and Hong Kong’s professional services strengths, the newly established GoGlobal Connect Zone for service providers, roundtable discussions and the GoGlobal Business Study Mission to Nansha, Guangzhou. These initiatives will further strengthen Hong Kong’s role as a ‘superconnector’ and ‘super value-adder’, promoting high-quality cooperation in Belt and Road and other markets. The HKTDC has also been actively advancing cross-regional economic and trade cooperation. This year, we have organised a business delegation to visit Belt and Road countries and regions and hosted the flagship overseas promotion event ‘Think Business, Think Hong Kong’ in Malaysia, continuing to develop new markets, connect with new partners and explore new opportunities, further leveraging Hong Kong’s strengths in connecting the Chinese Mainland and the world, while deepening Hong Kong’s links with global markets." This year’s Belt and Road Summit will feature a new GoGlobal Connect Zone, showcasing professional services solutions across different sectors in Hong Kong and providing consultation and practical support for enterprises going global. The picture shows the Asia Summit on Global Health held in May 2026, featuring the “GoGlobal Connect” and the Business of Healthcare Advisory Zone.

Exploring cooperation with Central Asia and the Middle East to support enterprises in going global through Hong Kong Continuing to focus on expanding international markets, deepening cross-regional cooperation and advancing high-quality development, this year’s Summit will introduce new thematic chapters, namely, the Go Global Chapter, Central Asia Chapter and Middle East Chapter.

The Summit will also organise the GoGlobal Business Study Mission to Nansha, Guangzhou, enabling participants to gain first-hand understanding of development and investment opportunities in the Greater Bay Area. Central Asia and Middle East Chapters showcase investment opportunities Following the successful delegations led by John Lee, Chief Executive of the HKSAR, and organised by the HKTDC over the past two years, Hong Kong, Central Asia and the Middle East have strengthened ties with reciprocal exchanges.

The exhibition zones bring together over 120 exhibitors. Alongside the Hong Kong Zone and Global Investment Zone, three new zones have been introduced this year. The University Zone assembles local universities to showcase research outputs, innovative technologies and talent-related strengths. The GreenTech Zone features artificial intelligence, green technologies and smart-city solutions, building bridges between technology enterprises and investors. The GoGlobal Connect Zone displays services and resources supporting enterprises’ overseas expansion, connecting businesses to global commercial networks and empowering them to tap into international markets. There are also regional-themed zones, including the returning Chinese Mainland Zone and the ASEAN Zone, which showcase promising investment projects and business opportunities from Belt and Road markets. The 11th Belt and Road Summit is supported by a wide range of partners, including China International Capital Corporation Limited as Strategic Partner, and Bank of China (Hong Kong) Limited as the Banking Partner.

New ASEAN Market Day to be held alongside Belt and Road Week The Belt and Road Summit is one of the key flagship events of Belt and Road Week, a themed week featuring events related to the Belt and Road Initiative held around Hong Kong. With representatives of ASEAN member states coming to Hong Kong to participate in the Summit, the HKTDC will introduce a new flagship event, ASEAN Market Day, which will be held on the afternoon of 10 September. The event, the first in a series of market days, will bring together business leaders and experts to share practical experience, helping Hong Kong businesses, particularly SMEs, gain a deeper understanding of the latest development trends and business opportunities in different ASEAN markets before taking steps to expand. Following the session, participants can visit the ASEAN Zone at the Summit for consultation sessions with representatives from the HKTDC’s offices in ASEAN and various ASEAN Consulates General and associations to exchange views and connect with potential partners. Looking ahead, the HKTDC will continue with the series of market days focusing on different regions with high business potential, such as Africa and the Middle East, and closer to home, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area in the Chinese Mainland.
