BANGKOK, Nov. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- On November 17, 2025, Xiaomi's International Internet Business Department (Xiaomi IIB) successfully held the Xiaomi Internet Partner Conference 2026 in Thailand, gathering key partners from around the world to share its vision for the AI era.
During the conference, four on-device AI features were introduced—AI Search, Creative Tools, Pet Companion, and Shopping Assistant. "We regard exceptional user experience as the core of our mission," said Qiang Song, General Manager of Xiaomi IIB. "In this fast-moving era of AI, we are also eager to grow together with our partners and seize every opportunity."
For example, Pet Companion introduces an adorable home-screen AI pet that performs actions like eating, sleeping, and playing. Integrated with system apps, it provides practical functions such as step counts and weather reminders, while responding to users' voice input, offering users a unique and emotionally engaging experience.
And the Shopping Assistant helps users discover products efficiently. The on-device AI identifies details, finds similar items and claims coupons, all accessible with a single tap. Its floating system-level product page ensures a fast and convenient shopping experience.
Beyond its AI advancements, Xiaomi has also strengthened its open and sustainable ecosystem for applications, games, content, and services, creating new possibilities for both users and partners.
Minicard, an on-device capability, provides a flexible and seamless app distribution experience for GetApps, Xiaomi's overseas official app store. Recent enhancements have focused on streamlining app publishing, optimizing launch flows, and delivering actionable insights, unlocking OEM potential to support app ecosystem growth.
In gaming, Xiaomi's joint operations have attracted a large number of developers, with over 450 in-app purchase (IAP) titles launched in supported regions, achieving 90% annual revenue growth. The team leverages on-device resources for broader reach through placements such as full-screen, home page, and Games tab banners, while even extending reach beyond GetApps to other premium Xiaomi media.
Xiaomi has also developed an OEM native advertising framework that provides on-device placements and cross-device reach, enabling brands and partners to engage users through contextually integrated touchpoints.
In addition, the Xiaomi ADS platform, an all-in-one advertising solution, provides tools to manage the advertising lifecycle and support partners in engaging users effectively. Its proprietary ROAS algorithm helps optimize campaign performance, driving sustainable growth across the ecosystem.
As AI continues to redefine the boundaries of technology and user experience, Xiaomi plays a key role in this transformation, bridging hardware and software as well as intelligence and creativity. "Through continuous innovation and deep collaboration, we are building an open and sustainable internet ecosystem for all by empowering users and partners with our AI capabilities," said Qiang Song.

SEOUL, South Korea, Dec. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- SK hynix Inc. (or "the company", www.skhynix.com) announced today that it has been named the winner of the Best Financially Managed Semiconductor Company Award (Achieving Greater than $1 Billion in Annual Sales)[1] and the Outstanding Asia-Pacific Semiconductor Company Award[2] at the Global Semiconductor Alliance (GSA)[3] Awards 2025, held on December 4 PST in Santa Clara, California.
| [1]The Best Financially Managed Semiconductor Company Award: A category recognizing public semiconductor companies based on financial soundness and operational efficiency. Awards are presented in two categories — annual sales over $1 billion and annual sales under $1 billion — and are considered among the most authoritative honors in the global semiconductor industry. |
| [2]Outstanding Asia-Pacific Semiconductor Company Award: A special category recognizing semiconductor companies headquartered in the Asia-Pacific region based on comprehensive evaluations including product excellence, business vision, leadership, and market success. |
| [3]GSA(Global Semiconductor Alliance): A global CEO-level semiconductor organization serving as a hub for technological information sharing across more than 25 countries and over 250 corporate members. |
The GSA Awards, organized annually since 1996, are regarded as the most prestigious honors in the global semiconductor sector, recognizing outstanding performance in leadership, financial results and industry reputation. SK hynix secured its second win in the financial management category following 2017, and its first recognition as the top Asia-Pacific semiconductor company. The dual achievement reinforces the company's reputation as a leading global technology innovator.
While the semiconductor industry faced a severe downturn just two years ago, the company has been the fastest to rebound thanks to its advanced AI memory technologies including HBM. This performance has resulted in global recognition for its operational excellence and financial execution. SK hynix plans to continue building sustainable growth with its dominant leadership in the AI memory market.
The awards reflect the company's proactive delivery of groundbreaking HBM solutions and its steadfast commitment to customer-centric performance in surging global AI demand. SK Chairman Chey Tae-won has consistently emphasized that securing technological competitiveness must remain unwavering, especially during challenging times. This long-term focus on technology investment and global cooperation network has contributed to the company's improved performance and reinforced financial health.
Driven by this strategy, SK hynix has recorded historic performance throughout 2025. For the first three quarters, the company reported revenue of 64 trillion won and operating profit of 28 trillion won in total, positioning it well to surpass its previous full-year earnings record set in 2024 (66 trillion won in revenue and 23 trillion won in operating profit).
Financial health has also significantly strengthened. As of the end of the third quarter, cash and cash equivalents reached 27.9 trillion won, up 10.9 trillion won quarter-over-quarter, while interest bearing debt decreased to 24.1 trillion won— successfully transitioning into a net cash position of approximately 4 trillion won.
To secure long-term leadership in AI memory, SK hynix is accelerating major investments. The Cheongju M15X fab, which opened its cleanroom earlier than planned in October, is on track to begin HBM mass production in the first half of next year. Construction of the first fab in the Yongin Semiconductor Cluster, launched in February, is also progressing ahead of schedule.
With its recent financial achievements and continued expansion, SK hynix is expected to further solidify its AI memory leadership going forward.
SK hynix was represented at the ceremony by Justin Kim, President & Head of AI Infra at SK hynix, and Sungsoo Ryu, President of SK hynix America. "It is a great honor to receive this award." Kim said, "We will continue to lead the market and create new value for customers as a Full-Stack AI Memory Creator, driving growth across the global AI ecosystem."
