Ms. Sun Wen, Director of Global Board of Directors, Beijing Yingke Law Firm, receiving the award at the event

Headquartered in Beijing and established in 2001, Yingke Law Firm is a global legal service provider and a co-founder of the Global Coalition of Think Tank Networks for South-South Co-operation. Since 2022, Yingke has consistently held the top position in The Global 200 ranking of global law firms based on the number of lawyers, and its global legal service network has covered up to 199 cosmopolitan cities across 104 countries and territories. As the digital era approaches, Yingke is accelerating its “Digital Intelligence Law Firm” transformation and upgrading, with the aim of establishing a “Yingke Global One-Hour Legal Service Ecosystem” . The development strategy of the firm is also evolving from geographical business expansion to digital-intelligence transformation.

“2025 marks the tenth anniversary of the IDC China Future Enterprise Awards. With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) and its deep integration across industries, we are witnessing an increasing number of enterprises transforming into AI-driven firms as they enter the era of digital operation. These enterprises are customer-centric, open to experiment and constantly enhancing their products, services and user experiences,” said Mr. Wu Lianfeng, Vice President and Chief Analyst at IDC China. “Yingke Law Firm is a remarkable example of such organizations. From strategic vision to practical execution, Yingke actively adopts new technologies with an open and inclusive mindset, driving transformation within the legal sector. To streamline transformation, suppliers of innovative technologies and solutions like China Entercom play an indispensable role. As a trusted enabler of digital-intelligence transformation, China Entercom strives to offer clients with value-driven and reliable technologies and solutions. Moreover, as a successful example of international expansion, the company’s extensive experience and expertise in globalization provide valuable support for Chinese enterprises in their journey of going global.”

Extending warm congratulations to Yingke Law Firm on its recognition as an Excellence Award winner at the 2025 IDC China Future Enterprise Awards, Mr. Henry Ko, General Manager at China Entercom, underlined the key to “Redefining Global Legal Services with Digital Intelligence” by integrating China Entercom’s ICT capabilities and Yingke’s expertise in digitalizing and globalizing legal services. He added that this cross-industry collaboration has reassured enterprises in their pursuit of globalization. “Our collaboration with Yingke began in 2021, when the firm embarked on its four strategic pillars — globalization, professionalization, digitalization and carbon neutrality — to optimize its worldwide operations and services,” said Mr. Ko. “We look forward to taking this collaboration to new heights, empowering enterprises to expand overseas and creating a new paradigm of legal and ICT innovations.”

In today’s ever-changing economic and social landscape, every industry is confronted with new challenges, and these changes also raise the expectations for China Entercom. As an innovative ICT service enabler, the company is committed not only to staying ahead of technological advancement and strengthening its core capabilities, but also to gaining deeper insight into industry transformation and accumulating practical experience. Mr. Ko emphasized, “As AI is applied profoundly in various business scenarios, law firms and other enterprises are demanding higher standards in global network stability, data security and intelligence. As a result, more clients are partnering with China Entercom to explore efficient, flexible and future-ready models of digital and intelligent services.”

Harnessing AI to Pioneer a New Legal Service Model
As technology rapidly advances and the macro-environment evolves, the legal services industry finds itself in the midst of fierce competition, undergoing profound structural challenges in traditional legal services models. The first challenge stems from global economic integration, which has sharply increased demand for cross-border legal services. Law firms are now expected to demonstrate stronger global service capability, cross-regional collaboration, and the ability to deliver tailor-made services. Secondly, the rise of the digital economy has given birth to new legal issues, raising the standards of a firm’s knowledge base and learning agility. Finally, disruptive technologies such as AI are redefining the legal service eco-chain — from client acquisition and service scenarios to operational processes and service systems — prompting a comprehensive reconstruction and transformation.

The “YingFaBao AI Legal Space Station” integrates Internet of Things (IoT), new media, videos and AI to deliver timely, efficient and one-stop self-service legal solutions, which marks a groundbreaking innovation in the legal services sector. In response to this new wave of transformation, China Entercom leverages over two decades of ICT practical experience and its strengths in integrated “Cloud, Network, Security” services to empower the digital and intelligent development of the legal services industry with AI-driven solutions. On one hand, it enhances the performance of critical digital infrastructure through global network optimization and intelligent security protection; on the other hand, this strong foundation supports law firms in all dimensions, such as digital management upgrades and global expansion of their services.

Redefining Legal Services with Digital Intelligence
Yingke Law Firm is developing a global legal data platform in the hope of creating a worldwide legal services platform through promoting data sharing and interconnection. According to Ms. Sun Wen, Director of Global Board of Directors at Beijing Yingke Law Firm, “As the wave of digitalization transforms the legal sector, Yingke has remained focused on advancing through technological innovation and professional excellence. On the journey to evolve our service models through the dual engines of ‘LegalTech + AI’, we are delighted to have China Entercom as a trusted partner. Its profound technical expertise and extensive experience in supporting enterprises going global provide invaluable insight for our strategic development and transformation in this new era.”

China Entercom’s best practices in supporting enterprises “Going Global” and “Coming to China” have become a recognized benchmark. As a member of the CITIC Group, China Entercom upholds the service motto of “CITIC, Your Trusted Partner for Going Global and Coming to China”, and has long worked hand in hand with its parent companies, CITIC Telecom CPC and the Group, to extend service coverage to regions along the Belt and Road, the Middle East, BRICS nations and RCEP member countries.

EdgePoint and Pahang State Parks Corporation Launch Connectivity for Conservation at the Al-Sultan Abdullah Royal Tiger Reserve, Ulu Tembeling, Jerantut, Pahang

EdgePoint Towers Sdn Bhd (“EdgePoint”) – part of EdgePoint Infrastructure, a leading ASEAN-based independent telecommunications infrastructure company – announced the successful deployment of its first-of-its-kind Connectivity for Conservation project at the Al-Sultan Abdullah Royal Tiger Reserve in Ulu Tembeling, Jerantut, Pahang. The project was implemented in partnership with the Pahang State Parks Corporation (Perbadanan Taman Negeri Pahang, PTNP), and The Habitat Foundation (THF).

By connecting manned guard posts and camp sites via Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite technology, the solution enables real-time coordination and communication for rangers and research staff operating in remote and dense rainforests. It also supports incident reporting, navigation and location tagging for emergency communication and response protocols.

Muniff Kamaruddin, Chief Executive Officer of EdgePoint Towers, said, “As part of our Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) commitment, we are proud to contribute to tiger conservation efforts through the use of technology. Protecting biodiversity is a crucial component of sustainable development, and by leveraging our expertise in connectivity and infrastructure, we aim to strengthen monitoring and protection of Malaysia’s endangered tigers. Through this partnership, we have worked closely with stakeholders to understand and address the complex challenges posed by difficult terrain, unpredictable weather, and wildlife-specific needs”.

“Operational constraints such as limited fuel supply and power access require robust solutions and detailed contingency planning to ensure optimal equipment performance with minimal on-site intervention. By integrating off-grid solar and battery systems, these installations will enhance the efficiency of rangers and researchers, providing reliable access to critical data in real time and enabling faster response to tiger sightings and anti-poaching efforts. This initiative also demonstrates how technology-driven insights can shape more effective, data-informed wildlife protection policies” he added.

Encik Zainal Abidin bin Othman, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of PTNP said, “The Malayan Tiger is listed as critically endangered, with an estimated 150 remaining in the wild in Malaysia. This alarming scarcity highlights the urgent need for innovative and technology-driven approaches to safeguard the species. Through the enhanced connectivity provided by EdgePoint’s solution, PTNP together with the service operator of Al-Sultan Abdullah Royal Tiger Reserve, Enggang Management Services (EMS) Sdn. Bhd. and implementing partners can now benefit with better communications in the deep forest, instead of depending on satellite phones only. This is also one of the risk mitigation plans for the park alongside patrolling and monitoring. Ultimately, this improves the safety for the patrollers while enhancing park management.

Justine Vaz, Executive Director from The Habitat Foundation added, “This pioneering initiative highlights the power of collaboration in driving meaningful conservation outcomes. It demonstrates the synergistic potential of partnerships between corporations, government agencies, and NGOs in addressing real-world challenges. The enhanced connectivity will improve coordination and data sharing among conservation stakeholders operating in remote landscapes. It will also be instrumental in reinforcing enforcement coordination and strengthening efforts to protect Malaysia’s endangered tigers. We look forward to seeing the results and insights from this program, which we hope will inform future policy decisions within the reserve and the wider conservation community. Through this partnership, we remain hopeful that we can contribute to the population recovery of this iconic Malaysian species”

The Connectivity for Tiger Conservation project marks a pioneering collaboration between technology and conservation, demonstrating how digital infrastructure and connectivity can be powerful in safeguarding Malaysia’s rich natural heritage, supporting biodiversity conservation and ensuring the survival of its critically endangered wildlife.

Internexa Launches PoP at HostDime’s Bogota, Colombia Data Center

HostDime, a global hyper-edge data center company, announced that InterNexa – one of the largest IP networks and fiber operators in Colombia – has deployed a Mega PoP inside HostDime’s Tier IV certified data center in Bogotá, codenamed Nebula.

InterNexa operates a 32,000+ km fiber optic network throughout Colombia, and with its backbone now on-net, Nebula is established as a premier interconnectivity hub. The facility provides fiber carriers, cloud providers, content providers, AI workloads, ISPs, OTTs, peering exchanges, and enterprises with ultra-low latency, high-capacity access into the Colombian market. This positions Nebula as one of the most interconnected data centers in the country. Customers in Nebula can now seamlessly tap into InterNexa’s network, while InterNexa’s clients gain access to Nebula’s next-generation Tier IV infrastructure to expand in Colombia.

This alliance also connects HostDime’s 70,000-square-foot, purpose-built Tier IV hyper-edge data center directly to InterNexa’s ecosystem of 16 facilities. By leveraging InterNexa’s redundant ring topology and major peering points, HostDime clients in Nebula gain an advantage through direct connectivity into InterNexa’s network for accelerated content and workload delivery.

“Having InterNexa on-net is a major milestone for HostDime Colombia and Colombia’s digital infrastructure. When we set out to build Nebula, our vision was to create next-gen digital infrastructure that would foster partnerships like this – building an ecosystem that benefits all stakeholders, from cloud and content providers to AI inferencing workloads and fiber carriers. I encourage everyone to visit Nebula and experience firsthand what a purpose-built, next-generation data center feels and looks like. You will leave inspired.” – Manny Vivar, HostDime Founder and CEO

HostDime’s Nebula Data Center, located in North Bogotá (Tocancipá), is one of the only Uptime Institute Tier IV certified facilities in Colombia, backed by a 100% uptime SLA. It features 6 MW of power capacity, rack densities up to 50 kW, and 10+ fiber carriers already on-net. The facility is sustainably designed, holding EDGE Building environmental certifications. Its carrier-neutral operation, combined with next-gen infrastructure capabilities, offers Nebula occupants an unmatched environment to thrive in the Colombian market.

Beyond the enterprise market, this network expansion also improves the digital experience for Colombian end users. With Nebula as a direct node on InterNexa’s backbone, streaming services, cloud apps, and online platforms can deliver content closer to end users, enabling faster performance, smoother gaming, and more reliable access without international backhauling.

Colombia is rapidly establishing itself as a regional technology hub, with demand for reliable, low-latency infrastructure surging across financial services, government, energy, media, and AI applications. AI workloads specifically require high availability and ultra-fast inferencing at the edge, making Nebula’s Tier IV infrastructure and direct fiber connectivity an advantage for enterprises building next-generation services. By serving as a strategic interconnection point within Bogotá’s digital ecosystem, Nebula empowers enterprises to scale while contributing to the country’s economic and technological growth.

This partnership reinforces HostDime’s vision to design, build, and operate next-generation data centers in emerging and underserved markets, providing global clients with the edge infrastructure needed for growth, and positioning HostDime as a key driver of Colombia’s digital future.
