The launch of its cutting-edge Progressive Web App (PWA) platform, alongside the debut of the innovative "10K Flash Challenge," equips traders worldwide with scalable, high-performance, and future-ready trading solutions. These initiatives mark the first phase of SiegPath's strategic expansion following its recent rebranding, paving the way for global expansion.
Next-Generation Accessibility with SiegPath PWA
The newly launched SiegPath PWA removes traditional barriers in proprietary trading by offering a no-download, full-featured platform accessible across any device or operating system.

"SiegPath's PWA delivers an app-like experience without downloads, offering a fast, intuitive, and user-friendly interface," said Antti Zhang, Client Experience Director of SiegPath. "This platform is designed to support traders of all levels, helping them focus on mastering their strategies."
Proprietary Trading 3.0: The 10K Flash Challenge
SiegPath has also introduced the "10K Flash Challenge," a fast-track certification programme that evaluates and rewards traders in a single high-intensity session.
This initiative allows traders to earn certification and receive payouts in just one day, offering a streamlined pathway to professional recognition and financial success. By lowering entry barriers, the programme accelerates the transition from independent trader to institutional-level professional.

- Strategic partnerships with more than ten financial institutions and private equity funds.
- The exclusive SiegCertified™ status, granting qualified traders access to substantial capital and tailored scaling opportunities.
Future Developments: Expanding Opportunities
Looking ahead, SiegPath plans to roll out additional services, incentives, and products to reinforce its leadership in the fintech space. Its PWA will play a crucial role in this expansion, offering clients greater access to cutting-edge technology and innovative reward programmes.
"By focusing on the evolving needs of our global client base, SiegPath will continue to launch solutions and programmes that align with our vision of responsible, scalable, and accessible financial innovation," a company spokesperson added.
About SiegPath
With years of expertise in financial IT services, SiegPath has observed a critical gap in the proprietary trading industry. Leading firms—such as Jane Street, Citadel Securities, and IMC Trading—continue to rely heavily on traditional recruitment methods like academic referrals and offline hiring processes. These approaches are often slow, inefficient, and plagued by high attrition rates. Yet, many proven traders have already demonstrated exceptional and consistent performance through online platforms.
To close this gap, SiegPath developed the SiegEvaluation™ system—a fully digital, data-driven solution designed to identify and assess high-potential trading talent with precision. Like established proprietary firms, we leverage traders' strategies to exploit market opportunities and generate alpha. What sets us apart is our ability to redefine talent discovery—bringing it into the digital era and establishing a new industry benchmark.

SiegPath Revolutionises Proprietary Trading with Progressive Web App (PWA) Launch and 10K Flash Challenge
The Initiative Aims to Address the Pain Points of Family Filmmaking
BEIJING, Dec. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- On December 6th, the 3rd FamilyLens International Film Festival opened in Beijing. SmallRig, a global specialized provider of imaging solutions, collaborating with FamilyLens, is empowering family filmmaking through various initiatives, including the Family Filmmaking Co-Creation Initiative, a dedicated family filmmaking kit, and a social impact screening program.
Deepening the "Co-Creation Initiatives"
The Co-Creation Initiatives are a series of global creative initiatives open to filmmakers and image creators worldwide. Through deep collaboration across multiple dimensions — including product co-creation, discovery and promotion, and content co-creation — SmallRig aims to expand the boundaries of mobile filmmaking and bring the spirit of Free Your Dream to life with creators everywhere.
Following the launch of the Mobile Filmmaking Co-Creation Initiative at the 14th International Smartphone Film Festival, SmallRig announced the launch of the Family Filmmaking Co-Creation Initiative on December 6th at the 3rd FamilyLens International Film Festival. The initiative invites global creators and every family to participate, focusing on three core directions: product co-creation, work promotion, and content co-creation, to explore the possibilities of family filmmaking for everyone.
Mr. Zhou Yang, Founder and CEO of SmallRig, shared the inspiration for the initiative: "The initiative is rooted in the immense universality and profound emotional depth inherent in family narratives, which serve as a common emotional bond connecting global audiences. We firmly believe that in this era, where everyone can be a content creator, every family can and should film their own story. The instinct to create is deeply embedded in the human spirit, and every home is the origin of countless narratives."
Gu Xue, Founder and Director of the FamilyLens International Film Festival, stated: "We hope that people and practitioners around the world who care about family movies can find suitable solutions and gain insights from the Co-Creation Initiatives. We look forward to more and more people exploring the field of 'Home' together through this initiative."
To address the pain points of family filmmaking, SmallRig officially released the SmallRig Family Filmmaking Kit at the opening ceremony. The kit includes a high-quality microphone, fill light, and a portable tripod, specifically designed to achieve "professional function democratization" and "complex feature simplification." During the FamilyLens Workshop, attendees experienced the convenience of the equipment firsthand. Many expressed that the kit truly solves many problems, enabling ordinary families to complete necessary filming without specialized photography knowledge.
Social Impact Screening Program
The 3rd FamilyLens International Film Festival is open to the public from December 6th to 14th. The festival opened with the screening of well-received documentary: K-Family Affairs. In addition to the competition section, the festival features several distinctive sections, including the Reframing Home Movies— An Italian Retrospective, Youth Film Program, Filmmaker in Focus, and the Social Impact Program. Four major awards, such as the Real-Life Portrait Award and the Artistic Exploration Award, will also be presented.
As a key component of the Co-Creation Initiatives, the SmallRig Image Development Fund partnered with the FamilyLens International Film Festival to curate the "Social Impact Screening Program." This unit focuses on elevating awareness of critical issues within the family unit, advocating for a new reflection: "Starting with Seeing, Concluding with Understanding."
Arum Nam, Director of K-Family Affairs, stated:
"Starting with the stories of your family, your friends, and yourself, I believe this personal narrative can connect directly to the bigger society."
SmallRig believes that truly meaningful social impact storytelling stems from awareness in proximity—achieved by using the lens to penetrate the daily surface and enabling a deep, empathetic "Seeing with Empathy."
The four featured works in this unit are:
- People of the Ascent
- Granny's Lost and Found
- Ruixi at Fourteen
- No Country For My Maternal Grandma
These films highlight four family issues that require "seeing": the yearning of left-behind children, the mental isolation of Alzheimer's patients, the elderly searching for subjectivity in their drifting lives, and the emotional volatility and struggle of Bipolar Disorder.
Strategic Outlook and Future Expansion
SmallRig will continue to support the Family Filmmaking Co-Creation Initiative's deep development through promotional campaigns and practical workshops focused on family movie scenarios.
The overall goal of SmallRig's Global Co-creation Initiative is to continuously explore and meet the growing, diverse needs of global creators across different vertical domains. SmallRig is committed to persistently expanding the co-creation model into more imaging sectors, collaborating with industry partners to push the boundaries of imaging and grant global creators broader creative freedom.
About SmallRig
Founded in 2013, SmallRig is an innovation-driven global company that designs and manufactures comprehensive support solutions and accessories for all content creation needs. Trusted by over four million creators globally, SmallRig pioneered the User Co-creation Design (UCD) philosophy and the DreamRig Program.
