HONG KONG, June 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- In a fast-paced city like Hong Kong, stress from work and daily life is a common challenge for many residents. Studies have shown that unmanaged stress can negatively impact mental well-being over time, even leading to emotional health issues. To raise awareness about mental and emotional wellness, Contex will launch a limited-time showcase at the "Blessings from the Pureland" Thangka Exhibition at SOGO Kai Tak, presenting two themed Silence Booths that combine meditative mindfulness with immersive sensory experiences, offering visitors a rare moment of calm in the heart of the city.
Meditation Booth: An On-site Space for Relaxation and Reconnection
In line with the event's "mind–body–spirit" theme, Contex will exhibit two experiential Silence Booths for public use. These booths are built with high-performance acoustic insulation to effectively block external noise and distractions, creating a serene, focused environment. In collaboration with wellness brand QeeBoo, Contex introduces a meditation booth experience that invites visitors to slow down, release tension, and reconnect with their inner calm—right within a bustling shopping environment.
Immersive Experience Booth: A Multisensory Approach to Stress Relief
The second booth, Home Pod is designed for home use, features an immersive sensory setup in partnership with age-tech company Medmind. This pod integrates visuals, scent diffusion, and environmental imagery to simulate the feeling of being in nature—promoting deeper relaxation and emotional decompression. Occupying just 1 square metre, Home Pod is compact and space-efficient, ideal for Hong Kong's living conditions. It requires no renovation or building approval and operates with a simple 13A plug, making it plug-and-play ready. Whether used for quiet contemplation, focused study, or working from home, it offers a personal retreat on demand.
Versatile by Design: Flexible for Homes, Workspaces, and Public Environments
Contex Silence Booth is not only suitable for homes but also for offices, schools, commercial spaces, and wellness centres. Built with E0-grade formaldehyde-free eco-materials and certified to ISO standards, it is safe, sustainable, and health-conscious. The booth can be equipped with optional add-ons such as air-conditioning, curtains and frosted glass films. It also supports easy relocation, allowing future flexibility in layout or usage. Whether as a meeting room, personal office, or private mindfulness space, the Silence Booth can be set up quickly without renovation, minimizing disruption and maximizing usability.

HANOI, Vietnam, Jan. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Travellive Media Group is pleased to announce the HOTLIST Travellive Editor's Pick 2025 (HOTLIST 2025), a curated project honouring outstanding brands, destinations, and individuals that have made significant contributions to the development of Vietnam's tourism industry over the past year.
HOTLIST is a expert-curated list reflecting the evolving values of the market at each stage of development. The selection process combines the expertise of a prestigious advisory council comprising both domestic and international experts, based on key criteria including quality, innovation, social impact, and sustainable growth potential.
Last year, HOTLIST 2024 made a strong impression on the tourism, hospitality, and service community by recognising more than 40 brands and 12 inspiring individuals across 28 categories spanning hospitality and resorts, destinations, technology, and experiential initiatives. The year also marked the first time HOTLIST expanded into a professional event series, featuring The Insiders Forum and the Honor Ceremony, attracting over 700 guests including senior business leaders and experts from various fields.
HOTLIST 2025: From Seed to Harvest
Entering 2025, HOTLIST is developed under the theme "From Seed to Harvest" inspired by rice, a symbol deeply rooted in Vietnam's wet-rice civilisation and cultural identity. From planting ideas and nurturing resources to harvesting sustainable achievements, this metaphor reflects the authentic development journey of projects, brands, and destinations within the tourism and hospitality industry.
At a time when the tourism sector faces multiple challenges such as climate change, shifting traveller behaviour, and global competition, the spirit of "From Seed to Harvest" underscores the importance of long-term vision, perseverance, and adaptability.
This year, HOTLIST 2025 introduces a public voting component in the final evaluation stage, enabling the community and industry professionals to participate directly in the selection process. Beyond fostering engagement, this initiative also provides an opportunity for audiences to share their firsthand experiences with the shortlisted brands and projects.
HOTLIST 2025 Honourees
HOTLIST 2025 expands its scope across key tourism sectors, featuring 07 main categories: Hospitality; Aviation; Travel Design & Experiences; Destination; Technology & Innovations; Sustainability and Community Projects & Voices. Each category aims to identify exemplary individuals and brands that play a guiding role in shaping the future of Vietnam's tourism and hospitality industry.
This year's list continues to acknowledge well-established brands such as Four Seasons Resort The Nam Hai, Hoi An; Topas Ecolodge; Six Senses Ninh Van Bay; P'apiu Resort; Wink Hotels, among others. It also introduces international brands that have made a positive impact on the Vietnamese market, including voco Quang Binh Resort by IHG, Park Hyatt Phu Quoc, and Hyatt Place Halong Bay, Bai Chay. In the Aviation category, STARLUX AIRLINES was selected for its premium flight experience.
The expansion and diversification of award categories reflect HOTLIST's commitment to comprehensively capturing industry dynamics, while encouraging responsible development models that respect local identity and generate positive social impact.
As part of its mission to deliver practical value to the tourism industry, HOTLIST 2025 will host The Insiders Forum in Hanoi (7 January 2026, Sheraton Hanoi West) and Ho Chi Minh City (19 January 2026, JW Marriott Hotel & Suites Saigon). The forums will gather business leaders, experts, and researchers to share insights and discuss key topics shaping tourism landscape.
On 19 January 2026, The Honor Ceremony will take place in Ho Chi Minh City to officially recognise and present certificates to the brands, projects, and individuals featured in HOTLIST 2025. The event will also serve as a B2B networking platform for industry stakeholders.
Through each edition, HOTLIST Travellive Editor's Pick has gradually become a highly anticipated annual reference point for the tourism community, built on credibility, sustainability-driven orientation, and a series of professional programmes. Through recognition activities, dialogue forums, and community connections, Travellive not only highlights market excellence but also actively contributes to promoting sustainable thinking and elevating standards within tourism industry.
This year, HOTLIST 2025 is supported by The Brand Promise (Co-organiser of The Insiders Forum), PR Newswire (Media Partner), and sponsoring brands including BMWines, Lady Triệu (drink experiences), and Cocoon, Jourdeness (gifts). HOTLIST 2025 continues to amplify meaningful stories, connect outstanding individuals and organisations, and share positive values with the wider public.
