LAS VEGAS, Jan. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- uCloudlink Group Inc. (NASDAQ: UCL) - uCloudlink's patent CloudSIM® and AI HyperConn® technology, is redefining the boundaries of mobile connectivity at CES 2026. Driven by a mission to eliminate the "Cross-Border" and "Cross-Network" Digital Divides, uCloudlink today introduced a matrix of game-changing devices designed to ensure data flows as freely as air and water.

This year, GlocalMe®, a digital lifestyle sub-brand under uCloudlink, lineup tackles connectivity from three game-changing dimensions:

1. The Ultimate Mobile Communications Hub: MeowGo G50 Max – At the forefront is the MeowGo G50 Max, an AI-powered connectivity hub that integrates "orbital, in-flight, and ground-based" networks. The core functionality includes the ability to create a mobile WiFi Hotspot anywhere terrestrial networks are available. However, unlike other mobile WiFi hotspot devices, the MeowGo G50 Max is not a paperweight when operating in areas outside terrestrial coverage. It Moves beyond traditional hotspots, by incorporating the ability to connect to Skylo's 3GPP Release 17 standard compliance Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN).

Space (The Safety Net): Through a strategic partnership with Skylo, the industry leader in software-defined Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN), the G50 Max offers seamless satellite connectivity without bulky external antennas. Although broadband internet features are not available when connecting to satellite, the device does offer services such as critical two-way messaging and Emergency SOS capabilities in the 70 percent of the globe that lacks cellular coverage—from deep-sea fishing expeditions to cross-desert treks.

Air & Ground (The Speed): Managed by uCloudlink's AI HyperConn®, the device delivers a frictionless roaming experience through its signature "One Device, One Account" capability. It intelligently manages credentials for home, office, hotel, and in-flight Wi-Fi alongside cellular and satellite connections. By automatically selecting the best signals from multiple terrestrial operators and enabling seamless switching between these diverse networks without manual logins or intervention, it ensures users always enjoy the optimal connection—delivering maximum value at a smart cost—to eliminate connectivity anxiety.

2. The "Invisible Wi-Fi" Revolution: UniCord Series – Addressing the "Lightweight Travel" trend, uCloudlink unveils the UniCord Series (including Pro and Plus) and the RoamPlug. By embedding high-performance CloudSIM hotspots directly into essential daily items like fast-charging cables and travel adapters, uCloudlink makes hardware practically invisible. This eliminates the burden of carrying extra devices while ensuring a secure, private global connection superior to unsecured public Wi-Fi.

3. The Disruptor: eSIM Trio Targeting the massive untapped market of more than 4 billion devices with physical SIM slots, the eSIM Trio acts as a "Global Super Black Card." It brings the flexibility of CloudSIM and eSIM functionality to most iPhones and a wide range of Android devices, effectively "eSIM-izing" legacy handsets. This innovation allows users to switch between global carriers without changing SIM cards—a game-changing product that reactivates the physical slot market.

"From the remote wilderness to the urban jungle, from home to office to in-flight, our goal is to bridge every digital divide," said Jeff Chen, the CEO and Co-Founder of uCloudlink. "With the MeowGo G50 Max now Skylo-certified, and our invisible Wi-Fi solutions, we are not just launching products; we are building the infrastructure for a seamless, connected future."

About Skylo Technologies Skylo Technologies is an NTN service provider based in Mountain View, CA, offering a service that allows cellular devices to connect directly over existing satellites. Skylo works with satellite operators, terrestrial mobile network operators, and device makers to provide an anywhere, anytime connectivity solution.

About uCloudlink Group Inc. (NASDAQ: UCL) uCloudlink is the world's first and leading mobile data traffic sharing marketplace, providing better mobile data connectivity services to users in over 200 countries and regions. Through its proprietary Cloud SIM technology, uCloudlink empowers users and businesses to stay connected with the best available network at all times.

SEOUL, South Korea, April 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Kwang Mo Koo, Chairman and CEO of LG Corp., recently visited the United States to review the Group's future growth strategies, focusing on energy infrastructure as a backbone of the AI era.

The visit reflects Chairman Koo's commitment to securing a proactive lead in the Energy Storage System (ESS) market, which has emerged as a critical infrastructure component due to the rapid growth of AI industries. During his tour, Koo called for the pre-emptive acquisition of market leadership in energy infrastructure to keep pace with the surge of AI data centers and physical AI.

On March 30, Chairman Koo visited LG Energy Solution Vertech, a subsidiary specializing in ESS System Integration located in Westborough, Massachusetts.

"We must establish a resilient business foundation that remains unshaken by any external environment," Koo stated during the visit. "Beyond simply supplying ESS battery hardware, we must enhance our integrated solution capabilities to provide high value-add to our customers, securing an overwhelming position to lead the market."

His remarks underscore that as demand for batteries skyrockets—driven by AI data centers and physical AI—the ability to combine hardware with software-driven integrated solutions will become a core competitive advantage.

LG aims to achieve qualitative growth in the battery business by pairing its world-class manufacturing competitiveness with software-based operation and management expertise, specifically targeting the energy infrastructure market of the AI era.

The ESS market is experiencing explosive growth due to the expansion of AI data centers, industrial electrification, and the transition to renewable energy. In high-performance computing environments like AI data centers, ESS has evolved beyond simple storage to become a vital infrastructure for power load optimization and supply stability.

According to energy market research firms, the global ESS market is projected to grow nearly 2.5 times, from approximately 300GWh last year to 750GWh by 2030.

LG is responding proactively to these market shifts. LG Energy Solution has introduced Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) batteries at the opportune time, aligning with their emergence as the global mainstream for ESS. Furthermore, the company is converting five of its North American production bases into ESS-dedicated lines to meet surging local demand. Currently, LG Energy Solution is the only company producing and supplying ESS batteries in North America.

The synergy with Vertech is also being strengthened. Vertech possesses comprehensive SI capabilities, including ESS design, installation, maintenance, and software-based operational management. This allows LG to provide a "one-stop shop" for customers, covering everything from battery supply to installation and long-term technical support.
