GUANGZHOU, China, Nov. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The inaugural Fortune Southeast Asia 500 Summit was held in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, on November 3. The summit brought together regional business leaders and multinational executives. During the event, WALOVI unveiled its X-Hero energy electrolyte drink, alongside the inauguration of Guangzhou Pharmaceutical Holdings Limited (GPHL)'s Vietnam representative office.
Featuring natural plant-based ingredients, such as ginseng and coffee beans, WALOVI X-Hero combines these botanicals with electrolytes to support energy and electrolyte replenishment. It responds to young consumers' growing demand for natural ingredients and convenient replenishment.
Ye Jizeng, the Vice President of WALOVI Beverages Group Co., Ltd., said the global beverage industry is undergoing a fundamental shift, with natural plant-based beverages moving from a niche option toward mainstream consumption. In response, WALOVI is pursuing two major transitions: evolving from a single-product company into a full-category business, and from a domestic brand into a global one.
WALOVI has been expanding its presence across Southeast Asia. In Malaysia, it partnered with Baosteel Can Making Malaysia in May 2025 to advance localized production. In Singapore, its international headquarters was launched in August 2026 to coordinate regional strategy and global resources. In Indonesia, WALOVI held its global investment promotion conference in Jakarta this year, unveiled its classic and international can ranges, and signed agreements with local distributors.
Vietnam is a key example of localized development. Following the debut of the WALOVI Vietnam Can in May 2026, X-Hero was unveiled at the Fortune Southeast Asia 500 Summit in November. The country's hot climate, spicy cuisine and familiarity with herbal ingredients create favorable conditions for functional beverages. Since accelerating its development in Vietnam in 2021, WALOVI has achieved rapid growth, making Vietnam its largest and fastest-growing market in Southeast Asia.
WALOVI sees Southeast Asia as a diverse region of countries with different languages and stages of development, where no single approach can fit every market.
As the global beverage industry evolves, WALOVI will continue to connect diverse markets through product innovation and open collaboration, to bring its natural plant-based beverages to a wider international audience.

WALOVI X-Hero Debuts at Inaugural Fortune Southeast Asia 500 Summit, Vietnam Emerges as a Growth Engine for Southeast Asia
WUHU, China, Nov. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- As AI becomes part of everyday family life, how will it transform the homes of the future? The 2026 OMODA & JAECOO International User Summit, co-presented by CHERY, OMODA｜JAECOO, ICAUR, Lepas and AiMOGA, took place in Wuhu from October 19 to 24 under the theme "DRIVE TO THE NEXT VIBE." During the summit, AiMOGA Robotics officially launched Mobo—its consumer-grade humanoid robot for home companionship—and opened global pre-orders. The launch took embodied AI into the home, extending proven automotive-grade technologies and supply-chain capabilities beyond vehicle manufacturing to a broader ecosystem of intelligent living.
Meet Mobo: A Thoughtful, Expressive and Caring Companion. A key highlight of the summit, Mobo makes its global debut with pre-orders opening worldwide. Having previously appeared at the World Robot Conference and the World Manufacturing Convention, it has already drawn strong interest. Powered by AiMOGA's proprietary MoAgent AI brain, Mobo goes beyond rigid single-command responses: it independently breaks down complex instructions and plans long-horizon tasks, turning Q&A into goal-driven assistance. Designed for family life, it combines spatial perception with multimodal interaction—autonomous navigation, dynamic obstacle avoidance, and voice-plus-vision conversation that identifies objects and makes companionship feel natural. With a full-body motion system of 22 degrees of freedom, it delivers smooth movements and dance routines, remembers each family member's habits and preferences, and builds in privacy protection from the outset—a companion blending advanced technology with warmth and care.
Bringing Automotive Expertise to Robotics. Unlike start-ups building from scratch, AiMOGA draws on the extensive automotive engineering experience and global R&D network of CHERY and its brands—OMODA｜JAECOO, ICAUR and Lepas—adapting proven technologies, including high-precision environmental perception and automotive-specific large AI models, for robotics. During the summit, its full robot portfolio will appear in zones recreating real-world applications: police robots patrolling mock traffic settings, healthcare robots guiding visitors, Mornine acting as an AI presenter, the Argos Pro quadruped demonstrating following and load carrying, and Mobo offering hands-on demonstrations as pre-orders open. AiMOGA already operates robots across more than 100 use cases—from dealerships and retail to traffic management, security, education and healthcare—with cumulative deliveries exceeding 3,000 units across more than 60 countries and regions.
Beyond Automotive Manufacturing. As these brands move from vehicles into robotics, they extend accumulated R&D, supply-chain and manufacturing expertise to wider intelligent applications; automotive–robotics integration provides the industrial foundation, while the MoAgent brain supports understanding, planning and execution. Guided by the philosophy "In Somewhere, For Somewhere, Be Somewhere," CHERY, OMODA｜JAECOO, ICAUR, Lepas and AiMOGA are bringing intelligent technology into everyday life and delivering meaningful support to people worldwide.
