Motiwala cultivates an untapped digital gold market in Southeast Asia

Published

on

Ever since the outbreak of Covid-19, investors worldwide have turned to transfer part of their assets into gold investment to avoid market uncertainties and take advantage of gold’s reliable store of value. Investors have always cited gold as a safe haven when market uncertainties intensify, and the events in 2020 further confirmed the established correlation between gold and market risk levels.

Since January 2020, the gold price has zipped up 25% by the end of the year, even hitting a record high of over $2,000 per ounce at one point for the first time in history.

Along with the growth of demand for gold-related investments, supply grows too. A Dubai-based precious metal supplier known as Motiwala caught sight of the growth in demand and is determined to make use of this opportunity to become a world leader in the precious metal industry.

How Motiwala accumulated sand grain into mountain

Motiwala Jewellers LLC is a certified precious metal refinery, gold processor, bullion manufacturer, and precious metal supplier based in Dubai. Renowned for its complete and diversified rare metal business network, Motiwala Jewellers is one of the top 5 gold merchants globally and one of the largest refineries in the Middle East region.

But Rome wasn’t built in a day. It takes a lot of passion and hard work to build such a spectacular precious metal empire. Its founder, Iqbal Bhai from Pakistan, founded Motiwala 40 years ago and has been in the gold industry since then. He started as a gold and jewellery wholesaler in his home country and later found success when he filed a patent for the international gold market fair in Dubai after discovering its undeveloped gold market.

Through several decades of development, Motiwala Jewellers established subsidiary companies to further diversify the range of services it provides and as an effort to complete its supply chain. It is now the holding company of Motiwala Gold Trading, Motiwala Gold & Precious Stone Industry, Motiwala Gold & Metal Laboratory, Shaheen Exchange.

Since then, the company’s businesses have expanded to cover gold mining, processing, jewellery design, jewellery retail stores, physical gold trading, gold and metal laboratories, precious stones & diamond retail stores, and currency exchange.

With its refinery and an ISO 17025 certified in-house laboratory, Motiwala can produce gold bullion at the finest quality and allow investors to purchase gold bars ranging from 1 gram to 100 grams in size at a competitive price in its physical stores, thus allowing all investors to start investing in gold regardless of their capital size.

Southeast Asia has a bright future as a digital gold haven

The gold market in Asia, Southeast Asia in particular, are underdeveloped, but experts are confident that Southeast Asia has a bright future as a digital gold haven in the near future as Southeast Asia has one of the fastest rates of digital payment adoption and more than 400 million internet users. The strong tech foundations were laid by the appealing regulatory landscape and strong government support that has escalated the growth of innovation and healthy competition in this region.

In response to the year-long pandemic crisis, part of the gold and jewellery retailers in Asia are moving their retail businesses onto the internet to reach online consumers and combat the highly contagious virus simultaneously. With robust governance and regulations, digital gold has been gaining much traction in the Southeast Asia market.

Tapping into Southeast Asia’s growing digital gold landscape

Envisioned to become the world leader for dealers and traders from across the globe and to achieve sustainable quality growth, Motiwala co-founded Moti Investment Capital (MIC) in 2018 to expand its global presence in the capital trading sector. The establishment of MIC will enable investors to achieve low-risk, sustainable returns using Motiwala’s unique set of the gold supply chain.

As the first step to globalize its operation, Motiwala has tapped into Southeast Asian countries, providing a wide array of services to the new countries, including asset management, physical gold trading and more. With Motiwala’s supply chain and diverse line of services, it will allow investors to purchase physical gold even if the investors are located outside of Dubai.

In 2018, member countries in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) had consumed 309 tonnes of gold, making Southeast Asia the third-largest market for gold in the world. With the combination of rapid digital adoption, the cultural importance of gold in the region, and low expansion costs, it makes Southeast Asia an ideal region as the first step in Motiwala’s globalization.

MOTIWALA announces partnership with BIS

Motiwala has recently announced its partnership with BIS to expand its global presence. BIS Holding is the first of its kind asset management firm to provide unique investment opportunities for investors, allowing clients to have the privilege to participate in the markets like a real corporate level liquidity provider.

“We are excited to partner with BIS,” said Iqbal Bhai, Founder of Motiwala group. “Through this strategic partnership, Motiwala and BIS can form a clear win-win relationship to provide more value to your existing customers. It would also bolster the long-term partnership between Motiwala and BIS as both firms continue to seek opportunities to achieve business expansion.”

More Than a Tastemaker: Kevin Knasel’s Vision for Music as Cultural Responsibility

Published

on

St. Louis, Missouri, 23rd February 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, In an era when music often moves at the speed of trends, Kevin Knasel is redefining what it means to shape a sound, a scene, and a community. A dynamic and influential figure in both St. Louis and Centerburg, Kevin Knasel stands not only as a creative force but as a steward of culture. His work transcends performance. It reflects a deeply held belief that music carries responsibility to inspire, to connect, and to serve.

For Kevin, music is not simply entertainment. It is a living dialogue between artists and audiences, neighborhoods and generations. His career, built on creativity, mentorship, and service, demonstrates that true influence lies not in personal spotlight, but in empowering others to shine.

Shaping the Sound of St. Louis

Within the ever-evolving music landscape of St. Louis, Kevin Knasel has emerged as a defining presence. The city, known for its rich musical heritage and genre-blending experimentation, continues to evolve and Kevin has been instrumental in that transformation.

Through his work, he has helped shape the city’s modern identity, nurturing new talent and fostering spaces where collaboration thrives. His ear for emerging voices and his ability to recognize potential have made him one of the region’s most respected mentors. From intimate neighborhood venues to major regional festivals, Kevin’s influence is felt in performances that carry both artistic innovation and community spirit.

Rather than guarding his platform, Kevin opens doors. He believes that a healthy music scene depends on accessibility, shared opportunity, and mentorship. By guiding emerging artists, offering strategic advice, and encouraging creative risk-taking, he has become a trusted advocate for the next generation of musicians.

A Visionary Tastemaker with Cultural Awareness

Kevin Knasel is often described as a tastemaker but the title only scratches the surface. His approach to music curation and performance reflects not only sharp instincts, but cultural awareness. He understands that sound shapes identity and that artists influence more than playlists; they influence perspectives.

Always a step ahead of the curve, Kevin embraces experimentation. He continuously explores new genres and hybrid sounds, ensuring that his performances remain fresh and engaging. This willingness to evolve keeps audiences intrigued while positioning St. Louis as a vibrant hub for musical discovery.

Yet innovation, for Kevin, is not about novelty for its own sake. It is about relevance. He views music as a living cultural force, one that must adapt to reflect the voices and experiences of the community. His performances are dynamic not only because of technical skill, but because they reflect authenticity and intention.

Music as Cultural Responsibility

At the heart of Kevin Knasel’s philosophy lies a powerful conviction: music carries social responsibility.

In both St. Louis and Centerburg, Ohio, he has demonstrated that artistry and service are inseparable. He believes that musicians have the capacity and obligation to strengthen the communities that support them.

This belief is evident in his involvement with the Missouri Music Foundation, where he contributes his expertise to initiatives that promote music education and cultural development. By supporting programs that give young people access to creative expression, Kevin helps ensure that music remains an inclusive and empowering force.

His commitment extends beyond formal organizations. In Ohio, he actively supports local shelters and food banks, understanding that community well-being is foundational to artistic growth. For Kevin, giving back is central to his identity.

Mentorship as Legacy

Ask those who have worked with Kevin Knasel, and a common theme emerges: mentorship.

He invests time and energy into young musicians, offering guidance that extends beyond performance technique. He teaches professionalism, resilience, and the importance of integrity in a rapidly changing industry. His mentorship fosters confidence while encouraging artists to remain true to their voices.

Kevin understands that mentorship creates ripple effects. Each artist he guides contributes to a stronger, more diverse music ecosystem. By prioritizing collaboration over competition, he reinforces the idea that collective growth elevates everyone.

In doing so, he challenges outdated models of individualistic success. Instead, he champions a community-driven approach where shared knowledge and mutual support become the foundation for sustainable creativity.

Building Bridges Between Cities

Operating between St. Louis and Centerburg, Kevin Knasel bridges two distinct communities. In St. Louis, he engages with a bustling urban scene filled with experimentation and cross-genre collaboration. In Centerburg, he remains connected to a close-knit community where music fosters personal bonds and local pride.

This dual presence enriches his perspective. It allows him to bring big-city innovation to smaller communities and small-town authenticity to larger stages. The result is a balanced approach that values both ambition and accessibility.

By maintaining strong ties in both locations, Kevin reinforces the idea that meaningful cultural impact is not limited by geography. Whether in a city venue or a community gathering space, his mission remains consistent: connect people through music.

Creativity Beyond the Spotlight

While Kevin Knasel’s professional achievements speak volumes, his character shines brightest in quieter moments. Whether organizing charitable initiatives or enjoying a thoughtful game of chess in the park, he embodies a harmonious balance between ambition and humility.

This balance is essential to his vision of cultural responsibility. He does not seek influence for influence’s sake. Instead, he channels his creativity toward building stronger relationships and more resilient communities.

His ability to merge artistry with compassion distinguishes him from others in the field. It reinforces the idea that cultural leadership is about stewardship.

Inspiring a Broader Movement

Kevin Knasels impact extends beyond individual performances or projects. He represents a broader movement within music — one that emphasizes responsibility, inclusivity, and service.

In a time when industries often prioritize metrics over meaning, Kevin’s approach feels both refreshing and necessary. He reminds audiences and artists alike that music has the power to heal divisions, spark dialogue, and inspire action.

By treating his role as both artist and advocate, he models a path forward for creatives who wish to make a lasting difference. His rhythm of compassion and artistry resonates far beyond the stage.

Continuing the Journey

As Kevin Knasel continues to shape the musical landscapes of St. Louis and Centerburg, his vision remains clear. Music is not merely a product. It is a public trust and a shared resource capable of strengthening communities and amplifying diverse voices.

Through mentorship, philanthropy, and fearless innovation, Kevin demonstrates that being a tastemaker means more than predicting trends. It means guiding culture with intention.

For those who have the privilege of knowing him or experiencing his work, the message is unmistakable: when creativity is paired with responsibility, the result is more than sound, it is lasting impact.

Neuralia TMS Expands Advanced Depression Treatment Services in Perth

Published

on

Australia, 23rd Feb 2026 – Neuralia TMS, a leading provider of non-invasive neuromodulation therapies, has expanded its facility capacity in Perth, with upgrades completed at its Como location at Unit 2A/125 Melville Parade, Marview House, Como WA 6152. The expansion relates to infrastructure and operational resources supporting Depression Treatment Perth services delivered at the site.

The updated premises include additional treatment rooms, expanded consultation areas, and increased administrative workspace. Appointment availability has been broadened to accommodate higher scheduling volume. Clinical and administrative staffing levels have also increased to support intake processing, appointment coordination, and daily operational requirements.

The expansion follows sustained growth in referrals from general practitioners, psychiatrists, and allied health professionals across Western Australia. Referral activity within the Perth metropolitan area contributed to the decision to increase the physical footprint and internal capacity of the Como facility.

Dr Shanek Wick, Medical Director of Neuralia TMS, stated that the expansion was focused on operational development.

“The expansion at the Como facility reflects increased referral activity and the need for additional infrastructure,” Dr Wick said. “The additional rooms and staffing resources support structured scheduling and administrative management within the existing service framework.”

As part of the expansion, internal systems and workflows have been reviewed and updated. Adjustments include revised intake procedures, expanded scheduling systems, and refined documentation processes. Communication pathways with referring practitioners have also been standardised to align with the increased capacity.

Services provided at the Como location include Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS), and pharmacogenetic testing. These services continue to be delivered from the expanded premises as part of Depression Treatment Perth operations. The expansion does not alter the scope of services offered but increases the facility’s ability to manage appointment volume.

The addition of treatment rooms allows for a greater number of concurrent appointments to be scheduled on site. Waiting areas and consultation spaces have been reconfigured to align with the updated layout. Equipment allocation and room utilisation processes have been adjusted to support the expanded floor plan and operational flow.

Staffing increases include both clinical personnel and administrative team members. The expanded workforce supports appointment scheduling, intake administration, record management, and coordination with referring practitioners. These structural changes are designed to maintain organised workflows in response to sustained referral levels.

Operational oversight at the Como facility includes defined service protocols and internal monitoring systems. Administrative procedures remain in place to manage referral intake, appointment tracking, and documentation requirements. The expanded infrastructure integrates these processes into a larger and more structured facility environment.

Dr Wick noted that infrastructure planning was central to the expansion process.

“Facility layout, staffing capacity, and scheduling systems were assessed to ensure alignment with current operational requirements,” Dr Wick said. “The updated infrastructure strengthens internal coordination and scheduling consistency at the Perth location.”

The expanded infrastructure is now fully integrated into daily operations at the Como site, reflecting continued development of facility capacity supporting Depression Treatment Perth services.
