Affected by the global COVID-19 epidemic, the strategic cooperation conference originally scheduled to be held in Singapore was not held as scheduled. The multi-party strategic cooperation was finally reached in the form of an electronic contract.

He also said that after the epidemic is over, you must personally experience the unique humanistic and geographical environment and beautiful scenery. It is reported that the five new side chain operation centers have been established in five urban commercial centers and have reached a strategic consensus with well-known local travel companies.

Colombo, the capital of Sri Lanka. A typical coastal city in Southeast Asia, as the gateway to Sri Lanka, known as the “Oriental Crossroads”, it is Sri Lanka’s largest city and commercial center. The local beautiful coastal scenery, noisy night market casinos, cheerful and wild percussion, religious Faithful religious believers, towering skyscrapers, magnificent temple halls… the romantic and colorful leisure atmosphere has formed the unique urban charm of Colombo.

Cairo, the capital and largest city of Egypt, is also the largest city in Africa and the Arab world. Cairo, a famous city with a history of 5,000 years, is the largest city in North Africa and the Middle East, one of the oldest Islamic cities in the world, and one of the few ancient cities in the world that has suffered the least damage from war. It has experienced many generations of dynasties and governments. Construction and expansion have formed this big city where ancient and modern coexist and reflect each other.

Amsterdam, the capital and largest city of the Netherlands, is known as Venice of the North. Bridge interlaced, canals crisscrossed, charming windmills, intoxicating tulips, legendary artists, mellow cheese, unique architecture is the city’s business card.

Santiago, the capital and largest city of Chile, is located in the central valley of central Chile. It is dry and mild in summer, cool and rainy in winter, and the sparkling Marbojo River flows slowly through the city. The snowy Andes are like a glittering silver crown, with natural mountains and rivers adding a moving charm to Santiago. As a natural tourist city in Chile, Santiago has abundant tourist resources, many museums, galleries and parks, and Saint Lucia Mountain is the best place to watch the whole city.

Copenhagen, the capital, largest city and port of the Kingdom of Denmark, is also the largest city in northern Europe, and is also the political, economic, cultural and transportation center of Denmark, the world famous international metropolis. The appearance of Copenhagen is beautiful and tidy, and the new industrial enterprises in the city interact with the ancient buildings of the Middle Ages, which makes it not only a modern city, but also has the characteristics of antique, and is a famous historical and cultural city in the world.

With the development of the world economy, tourism has become an important industry driving economic development, and huge economic benefits have promoted the development of tourism. Tourism is an important strategic, pillar and comprehensive industry with sustained high-speed and stable growth in the world economy. Nowadays, with the in-depth development of economic globalization and world economic integration, the world tourism industry has entered a golden age of rapid development.

ChangeNOW Brings Martin Masser Into Its Crypto Super App

Published

on

Kingstown, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, August 5th, 2026, Chainwire

The former TON executive joins as Director of Strategic Partnerships to form the connections behind ChangeNOW’s next phase.

Former TON executive Martin Masser joins ChangeNOW to build strategic partnerships, ecosystem relationships, and media momentum behind its next phase.

Masser comes with experience across traditional banking, Web2 and Web3, including senior growth and business development roles within the TON space. At ChangeNOW, he will lead strategic relationships with blockchain networks, wallets, fintech companies, payment providers and other infrastructure partners.

His appointment comes as ChangeNOW grows beyond standalone crypto services, transitioning to one connected product where users can buy, store, swap, trade, send, receive and grow digital assets. The industry has already built most of the individual components. What it hasn’t solved is the experience of using them together; clients are still expected to switch between platforms, understand different networks and connect the pieces on their own. ChangeNOW’s super app strategy is designed to move that complexity beneath the product.

“Martin brings a rare mix of commercial relationships, product and media understanding,” said Pauline Shangett, Chief Strategy Officer at ChangeNOW. “He knows what the technology can do, what the business needs and how to make the market pay attention. That is exactly the perspective we need as we build the ChangeNOW super app.”

Masser’s role will focus not on accumulating partnership announcements, but on identifying relationships that can make ChangeNOW’s infrastructure more complete and remove unnecessary steps from the сlient experience.

“The best partnerships create access, adoption and attention. My focus is to build relationships that make the product stronger, simpler and more useful, and then help the market understand why they matter. If you are building wallets, networks, payments, stablecoins, fintech infrastructure, consumer crypto or Web3 products, I want to hear from you,” said Masser. 

For consumers, ChangeNOW is combining the core activities of managing crypto within one environment. For businesses, it is developing an integrated set of tools for crypto payments, exchange, stablecoin settlement, digital asset management and Web3 integrations.

As ChangeNOW expands into a crypto super app, its next phase is connecting the right networks, wallets and partners. Masser’s role will be central to building those relationships and turning them into product value, adoption and market momentum.

About ChangeNOW

ChangeNOW.io is a crypto super app built for every crypto move, giving newcomers, professionals, and businesses the tools they need to access Web3 finance in a simple and secure way.

Since 2017, ChangeNOW has grown from a fast, secure, and limitless instant exchange into a trusted platform where storage, swaps, trading, staking, and asset management are covered in one simple experience for millions of clients worldwide.

About Martin Masser

Martin Masser is Director of Strategic Partnerships at ChangeNOW, where he is building partnerships around the company’s expansion into a crypto super app. His career covers traditional banking and capital markets in London and Web3, including his previous role as Head of Growth at TON Foundation. Martin works at the intersection of growth, infrastructure, and partnerships, connecting products and industry players to make crypto services work as one seamless user experience.

allwhere Expands UK Operations with Upgraded Depot

Published

on

New York City, New York, August 5th, 2026, FinanceWire

allwhere, the leading IT asset lifecycle management platform, today announced the expansion of its UK operations with the opening of a larger, upgraded depot. The investment increases warehouse capacity, streamlines fulfillment operations, and strengthens allwhere’s ability to support organizations managing employee devices across the United Kingdom.

The upgraded facility represents a significant investment in allwhere’s existing UK infrastructure, enabling the company to deliver faster turnaround times, greater operational efficiency, and additional inventory capacity as demand for global device lifecycle management continues to grow.

“As more organizations build distributed teams, the operational side of IT has become increasingly important,” said Tony Solomon, VP of Global Operations at allwhere. “This investment strengthens the foundation of our UK operations, allowing us to fulfill orders more efficiently, scale alongside our customers, and continue delivering the high level of service they expect from allwhere.”

Built to Support Growing IT Operations

The expanded UK depot enhances every stage of the device lifecycle by improving warehouse operations and increasing fulfillment capacity.

Customers can expect benefits including:

  • Faster fulfillment, expedited shipping, and improved turnaround times for deployments and retrievals
  • Increased warehouse capacity to support growing inventory needs
  • More efficient storage, inventory management, and redeployment workflows
  • Standardized operational processes that improve consistency and scalability
  • End-to-end lifecycle support managed through a single platform

Whether onboarding a new employee, retrieving equipment from an offboarded team member, storing spare inventory, or preparing devices for redeployment, the upgraded facility enables allwhere to execute these workflows more efficiently while maintaining complete visibility through its platform.

Software and Operations, Unified

Unlike traditional asset management solutions that rely on disconnected software, logistics providers, and warehouses, allwhere combines workflow automation with global operational infrastructure.

Organizations can manage procurement, deployment, inventory, retrievals, storage, repairs, redeployment, and IT asset disposition through a single platform, while allwhere handles the operational execution behind the scenes.

The expanded UK depot further strengthens this model by providing the operational capacity needed to support larger fleets, faster fulfillment, and increasingly complex IT programs.

Continuing to Invest in Global Infrastructure

The UK depot expansion is part of allwhere’s continued investment in its global logistics network. allwhere currently operates full-service depots in the UK, Canada, EU, Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay. Later this year, the company plans to further scale its infrastructure into the APAC region, with upcoming depot services in Australia, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, and more.

As organizations continue to scale distributed workforces, allwhere remains focused on expanding the operational infrastructure that powers modern IT teams—combining intelligent software with local logistics expertise to simplify device lifecycle management around the world.

About allwhere

allwhere is a laptop retrieval and IT procurement company that automates the IT asset lifecycle for companies ranging from startups to enterprises. From procurement and deployment to storage, maintenance, and retrieval, allwhere provides the infrastructure businesses need to support a global, distributed workforce.

Borderless.xyz Teams Up with Mastercard to Advance Trusted Cross-Border Stablecoin Payment Flows

Published

on

New York, New York, August 5th, 2026, FinanceWire

Borderless.xyz will explore how Mastercard Crypto Credential can help bring greater trust and confidence to cross-border stablecoin payments.

Borderless.xyz and Mastercard are collaborating on a new pilot to explore how Mastercard Crypto Credential’s standards-based framework can support trusted interactions across cross-border stablecoin payment flows. 

Stablecoins are increasingly being used to move value across borders, creating new opportunities for faster and more efficient payments. As adoption grows, participants need trusted ways to understand who they are interacting with and whether counterparties have met appropriate standards and requirements. 

Through the pilot, Borderless.xyz and Mastercard will explore how Mastercard Crypto Credential can address that challenge by providing assurance signals that participants can incorporate into their own approval, compliance and risk processes. 

Mastercard Crypto Credential helps support trusted and verifiable interactions across digital asset ecosystems. Through common standards and trusted assurance signals, it is designed to help bring more confidence, transparency and certainty to transactions across blockchain networks. 

The collaboration pairs Mastercard’s work in building trust and standards for digital asset ecosystems with Borderless.xyz’s network of stablecoin payment providers. Together, the companies are exploring how trusted governance signals can help reduce friction and bring greater confidence to cross-border stablecoin payments as adoption grows. 

“One of the biggest friction points for stablecoin payment operators isn’t the payments. It’s that compliance doesn’t scale the same way the network does. Every new provider means starting the verification process over. Correspondent banking solved this decades ago: originating compliance trusted downstream, no re-execution at every counterparty. Mastercard is applying that model to digital asset payments. Borderless.xyz is the network it runs through.” – Kevin Lehtiniitty, CEO and Co-Founder, Borderless.xyz

“Innovation is most powerful when it builds over time. Our relationship with Borderless.xyz began through Start Path and has continued to grow as the digital asset ecosystem has matured,” said Raj Dhamodharan, executive vice president, Blockchain & Digital Assets at Mastercard. “Today, we’re excited to take the next step together, exploring how Mastercard Crypto Credential can help bring greater trust and confidence to stablecoin payment flows across a growing network of participants.” 

The pilot brings together several of Borderless.xyz‘s network participants consisting of Infinia, Walapay, and Koywe, many of whom are also alumni of Mastercard Start Path, the company’s startup engagement program. These partners will leverage Mastercard Crypto Credential as some of the first stablecoin payment operators to run on the single-audit compliance model at network scale. 

About Borderless.xyz

Borderless.xyz is a global stablecoin orchestration and liquidity network. Its single API connects wallet infrastructure to 15+ licensed stablecoin providers across 100+ countries. It lets businesses enter new markets without new integrations, get failover so payments don’t drop, and make providers compete for your volume on price.
