LG CNS showcases AI-Enhanced 'PerfecTwin ERP Edition' in the U.S. at SAP Sapphire 2025

• Introduces new PerfecTwin ERP Edition with AI capabilities such as real transaction data generation for testing and automated removal of sensitive information
• Expands collaboration plans with SAP to provide technical enhanced services for cloud ERP advancement
• Plans to establish ERP delivery center in India to expand global ERP operations
• CEO Shin Gyoon Hyun joins SAP Sapphire panel session for the second consecutive year to discuss ERP innovation

SEOUL, South Korea, May 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- LG CNS, a leading AI transformation (AX) company in Korea, unveiled its latest AI-based ERP testing technology at SAP Sapphire 2025, SAP's annual global conference held in Orlando, Florida.

SAP Sapphire brings together industry leaders, customers and partners from around the world to explore the latest technologies and innovations powered by SAP. At this year's event, the LG CNS booth showcased the new AI-enhanced version of the company's PerfecTwin ERP Edition, an advanced testing solution based on real transaction data that was introduced at Sapphire 2024.

Designed for SAP ERP environments, the solution helps companies ensure smooth data transfers and minimize errors by testing transactional data—such as finance, procurement, and HR—in a virtual environment identical to the new system. By repeatedly verifying real transaction data, it enables near-zero defects upon system implementation or upgrades.

The latest edition's AI features generate real transaction test data when the volume of actual data is insufficient. They also ensure privacy and security by identifying and removing sensitive information, such as user data. Additionally, the AI analyzes error patterns and traces root causes to significantly reduce test validation time.

LG CNS is a long-time SAP partner offering ERP expertise to enterprise clients. At the event in Orlando, LG CNS and SAP expanded their collaboration to provide clients with a comprehensive set of services to accelerate their transformation to cloud ERP. These services provided by LG CNS include application operations, release version upgrades, application security updates and SAP Business Technology Platform core operations.

In addition, LG CNS plans to expand the target countries for these services to the Asia-Pacific and Japan regions and beyond, based on the maturity of the services. This includes the establishment of a delivery center in India later this year to support the global expansion of its ERP operations.

Shin Gyoon Hyun, CEO of LG CNS, participated in the SAP Sapphire panel discussion for the second year in a row, sharing insights on cloud ERP transformation, customer success stories, and innovative digital transformation cases.

Since establishing joint collaboration plans at SAP's headquarters in Germany in 2023, LG CNS has continued to strengthen its collaboration to drive innovation in cloud ERP services. Earlier this year, the company became the first from Korea to join SAP's Regional Strategic Services Partner (RSSP) initiative for the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. The RSSP initiative enables LG CNS to scale its SAP practice quickly across the APAC region and work more closely with SAP to deliver joint customer success.

"Through continued collaboration with SAP, LG CNS will further strengthen its technical expertise and competitiveness in ERP and continue to support innovation for global clients," said Hanshin Nae, Senior Vice President of LG CNS Enterprise Solutions Division.

SHANGHAI, Jan. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- On January 8, 2026, CHAGEE released its 2025 Year-End Tea Friends Review. The Review outlines the company's growth over the past year, with its store network now operating in eight countries across two continents. Annual tea sourcing volume surpassed 10,000 tons, covering six major tea categories as well as key Pu'er-producing regions, supported by partnerships with more than 100 tea factories.

Global Footprint Reaches Eight Countries; Asia-Pacific Overseas Membership Climbs 177%

The 2025 Year-End Tea Friends Review shows that CHAGEE's store network currently operates in China, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore, and the United States. In April, CHAGEE completed its public listing on the NASDAQ exchange (Ticker: CHA), becoming the first freshly made tea beverage brand from China to list on a U.S. stock exchange and one of the largest food and beverage IPOs globally since 2022, according to publicly available market data.

Overseas growth has supported the expansion of CHAGEE's customer base. According to the Report, membership in Asia-Pacific overseas markets rose 177% year-on-year in 2025, with 61% of members under the age of 30. Member counts in Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, and the Philippines increased by approximately 4-fold, 5.4-fold, 20-fold, and 11-fold, respectively. Online engagement related to CHAGEE across international social platforms increased by approximately 250% compared with the prior year. Terms like "tea", "tea culture", and "tea-inspired lifestyle" have become popular among young local consumers, positioning tea as a shared point of cultural interest among younger audiences across markets.

BO•YA JASMINE GREEN MILK TEA Gains Worldwide Popularity

As CHAGEE's global presence grows, BO•YA Jasmine Green Milk Tea continued to gain recognition across international markets. Data from Frost & Sullivan shows that sales of the beverage surpassed 1.25 billion cups between January 2022 and June 2025. The Review indicates BO•YA Jasmine Green Milk Tea ranks among the top-selling products in Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam, and Thailand. Preferences vary by region—for instance, consumers in Malaysia and Singapore show greater interest in Peach Oolong Milk Tea—reflecting the company's strategy of tailoring offerings to local preferences as international operations expand.

In the past year, more than 30 million customers placed single orders for two or more cups of BO•YA Jasmine Green Milk Tea, highlighting shared consumption occasions. Group orders rose notably, with orders exceeding 20 cups increasing by more than 15% and orders over 100 cups rising by more than 40% year-on-year.During the Spring Festival holiday, orders of 50–100 cups surged by as much as 259% year-on-year.

In 2025, BO•YA Jasmine Green Milk Tea received the Best Natural/Organic Beverage award at the World Beverage Innovation Awards. CHAGEE was also recognized in the Best Processing/Production Innovation category and named a finalist for several additional international innovation awards.

Annual Tea Sourcing Holds at 10,000 Tons; Modern Tea Approach Supports Supply Chain Development

Within the tea industry, CHAGEE continues to deepen partnerships with upstream producers. In 2025, the company's annual tea sourcing remained at approximately the 10,000-ton scale, with partnerships extending to more than 100 tea factories.

Product innovation further links industry capabilities with consumer preferences. Last year, CHAGEE introduced over 20 new products. Within the Fresh Milk Tea series, more than 50% of new releases featured floral or fruit elements. By applying its Fresh Brew technology system, CHAGEE has integrated contemporary extraction techniques into freshly made tea beverage preparation, bringing new flavor expressions to traditional tea leaves.

In 2025, CHAGEE also completed over 10 craftsmanship and process innovation initiatives in collaboration with tea gardens, factories, and research institutions.

The 2025 Year-End Tea Friends Review further notes that CHAGEE now operates more than 25 pet-friendly stores, has supported the construction of 23 children's playgrounds this year, opened 14 deaf-inclusive silent stores, added 219 new 24-hour locations, and opened new stores at an average rate of one every 1.7 days. Approximately 1340 stores joined CHAGEE's Night Clean Project, supporting 18,000 store partners complete end-of-day operations on schedule.

"Making Friends Through Tea" is more than a tagline—it reflects CHAGEE's ongoing approach of building lasting, respectful connections centered on shared tea experiences. Each day, CHAGEE brings people together through a cup of tea.
