Commemorating a Decade of Collaboration with SICW Amid a Rapidly Evolving Digital Future

SINGAPORE, Sept. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The GovWare Conference and Exhibition 2025, Asia's premier cybersecurity event, will return from 21 to 23 October 2025 at the Sands Expo and Convention Centre Singapore, gathering over 13,000 policymakers, cyber and corporate leaders, practitioners, and academia worldwide to explore how cybersecurity must evolve in response to breakneck innovation, emerging vulnerabilities, and shifting digital boundaries. This year marks the 10th anniversary of GovWare's partnership with the Singapore International Cyber Week (SICW), organised by the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA), reaffirming its role as a cornerstone platform for global cybersecurity cooperation, dialogue and innovation.

As rapid digitalisation and technological advancement reshape global systems, 2025 presents a critical moment for the cybersecurity ecosystem. While innovations like AI are unlocking new possibilities, they are also expanding the threat surface across every layer of enterprise and society. Organisations and businesses today face a surge in cyber risks, including the misuse of generative AI, vulnerabilities in critical infrastructure, sophisticated disinformation tactics, supply chain attacks, and real-time manipulation of data and services. These threats are compounded by heightened geopolitical tensions, which are increasingly playing out in cyberspace. Recent incidents, such as the state-linked campaign UNC3886 have revealed how persistent, well-resourced actors are targeting both public and private systems with increasing precision, underscoring the urgent need for coordinated, cross-sector responses across the region.

In this landscape, cybersecurity has evolved from a technical concern into a boardroom priority. The risks now extend beyond IT to include regulatory exposure, reputational damage, operational disruption, and erosion of public trust. Cybersecurity must be treated as a strategic imperative that demands executive leadership, governance foresight, and sustained investment. As the digital landscape becomes more complex, collaboration, transparency, and cross-sector cooperation are essential to building long-term resilience.

GovWare 2025 will convene global and regional leaders to navigate this shift, focusing on how organisations can move from reactive compliance to proactive resilience. The event continues to serve as a catalyst for real-world dialogue, policy alignment, and innovation at the intersection of technology, governance, and leadership.

This year's theme, "Cyberspace: Of Starbursts, Black Holes, and Last Frontiers," draws inspiration from deep space to reflect the scale, speed, and uncertainty of today's digital frontiers:

  • Starbursts represent the rapid rise of AI and emerging technologies accelerating digital transformation;
  • Black Holes highlight the hidden vulnerabilities and governance gaps within increasingly complex systems;
  • Last Frontiers capture the evolving boundaries of cyber risk, trust and sovereignty in a highly interconnected world.

"GovWare 2025 marks a critical milestone, with ten years of partnership with the SICW, and more than three decades of convening cybersecurity leaders from across sectors and geographies," said Mr. Ian Monteiro, Executive Director of Image Engine and organiser of GovWare. "This year, we aim to deepen the dialogue and sharpen the focus on trust, accountability and strategic foresight. In today's high-stakes climate, GovWare is where critical conversations on cybersecurity leadership, regulation, and AI governance are redefined."

Proudly supported by the CSA, GovWare 2025 represents the enterprise component of SICW.

Mr Yock Hau Dan, Assistant Chief Executive (National Cyber Resilience) of CSA said, "The evolving cyber threat landscape exacerbated by AI and geopolitical tensions calls for stronger international cooperation and deeper public-private collaboration to deal with the challenges more effectively. This year marks the 10th anniversary of SICW, and we are pleased to continue our partnership with GovWare. Together, we offer an inclusive platform to bring likeminded people to Singapore to contribute to efforts to secure our cyberspace."

As a long-standing Event Partner, Image Engine's collaboration with CSA reflects Singapore's continued commitment to regional cyber resilience through strong public-private partnerships and sustained technical engagement.

ZYT's German Office Commences Operations in January, Debuting Local Recruitment for European Push

SHENZHEN, China, Jan. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Intelligent driving solution provider ZYT launched its commercial vehicle strategy at the "ZYT Brand Gala 2025," expanding its business from passenger car ADAS into heavy-duty truck Navigation on Highway (NOA) and unmanned logistics vehicles.

ZYT has partnered with three major Chinese OEMs — XCMG, SHACMAN, and SINOTRUK — to bring the first ZYT-powered heavy trucks to mass production in the first half of 2026. Beyond highway transport, ZYT is extending its intelligent driving capabilities to broader automated scenarios. In early 2026, the company will co-develop unmanned logistics vehicles with leading industry players, targeting automated transport in ports, industrial parks, and mines.

This move marks a natural extension of ZYT's core technical pillars: its transferable architecture, platform adaptability proven through "Equal Intelligence for ICE and EV Vehicles," and a world-class engineering system.

Leveraging Transferable Architecture for Peak Performance

ZYT is porting its mature, full-stack "Perception-Decision-Control" technology from passenger cars to commercial vehicle applications. To address the unique dynamics and operational environments of heavy-duty transport, the company remains committed to its "Stay Passionate" engineering philosophy — extracting peak performance from constrained hardware resources.

The heavy-duty truck intelligent driving system features ZYT's proprietary 1L3R7V sensor suite, powered by an SA8650 domain controller delivering 100 TOPS of computing power. At its core is ZYT's self-developed End-to-End model. Optimized for heavy-truck scenarios, the system enables Navigation on Highway (NOA), driving assistance, and active safety features across a full speed range of 0–110 km/h. Supporting diverse environments — including urban roads, expressways, and highways — the architecture establishes a robust capability for rapid technical migration across different models and scenarios.

Solving Compatibility Challenges through "Equal Intelligence for ICE and EV Vehicles"

The commercial vehicle market — spanning diesel, natural gas, pure electric, and hybrid platforms — demands exceptional system compatibility and stability. Compared to the more uniform passenger car sector, commercial fleets require intelligent driving solutions with far more rigorous universality and reliability.

Building on its "Equal Intelligence for ICE and EV Vehicles" strategy pioneered in the passenger sector, ZYT has validated its multi-platform adaptability, laying the technical foundation for its expansion into commercial vehicles.

Achieving true "Equal Intelligence for ICE and EV Vehicles" is a complex technical feat. Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) powertrains are highly non-linear and present significant thermal management challenges. ZYT specializes in delivering high-level intelligent driving functions using low-power, cost-effective chips, enhancing system stability and adaptability from the ground up.

While industry resources are largely concentrated on New Energy Vehicle (NEV) intelligence, ZYT recognizes the persistent demand for ICE vehicles in markets like Europe. Through its "Equal Intelligence for ICE and EV Vehicles" capability, ZYT provides ICE users with a smart experience on par with EVs. This offers a differentiated upgrade path for legacy automakers like Volkswagen and FAW, who maintain massive global ICE fleets.

By 2025, ZYT had already facilitated the mass production of intelligent driving features in several ICE models, proving its ability to deliver standardized, high-reliability solutions for any commercial powertrain.

Meeting Global Standards to Drive European Localization

Entering the European market with intelligent driving systems requires adherence to the highest levels of functional safety and engineering process standards. Through seven years of deep collaboration with the Volkswagen Group, ZYT has established a research and development and quality management framework that complies with international standards such as A-SPICE CL2 and ISO 26262. This robust engineering foundation serves as a key enabler of ZYT's European strategy.

In August 2025, ZYT successfully passed a third-party joint audit and obtained the relevant certifications. This system is a concrete reflection of ZYT's "Users First • Clients Empowered" philosophy and acts as a critical "passport" for entering high-standard global markets like Europe.

Building on this groundwork, ZYT is steadily advancing its European localization. Following the official launch of its European strategy during the IAA Mobility show in Munich, ZYT is positioning Germany as a key hub and has begun recruiting for local roles. Looking ahead, ZYT aims to provide European OEMs with intelligent driving systems that comply with EU regulations, while simultaneously supporting Chinese automakers in their global market entry by offering solutions ranging from L2+ to L3 and L4 levels.

Moving Toward an Era of Autonomous Mobility

As its business footprint continues to grow, ZYT officially enters a new phase of "Empowering Autonomous Mobility." Moving forward, the company will prioritize its robust engineering framework and localized capabilities as key strategic levers for long-term development. With the passenger car business as its foundation and the commercial sector as a new growth engine, ZYT remains dedicated to its mission: "Safe and Effortless Mobility for ALL."
