SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 21 July 2026 – A Singapore company looking to expand into Vietnam may need a lawyer, accountant, tax adviser, HR consultant and local business connections. Today, businesses often have to find these services one by one, in each market they enter.

A new regional network aims to change that.

The Professional Services (PS) Centre Singapore, officially launched today by Ms Indranee Rajah, Minister in the Prime Minister’s Office, Second Minister for Finance and National Development, is the latest addition to a growing network of Professional Services Centres that connects businesses with trusted professional expertise across Asia.

Located at Level 2 of ISCA House, the Singapore PS Centre will serve as the anchor hub of the regional network, linking businesses to PS Centres in Hongqiao (Shanghai), Ho Chi Minh City and Nanjing, with Jakarta expected to join later this year. Future centres are also planned in Bangkok, Johor Bahru and Shenzhen.

Rather than building another office, the PS Centre is building something different, a trusted regional network where businesses can access local knowledge, professional expertise and business connections through one coordinated platform.

The initiative is led by the PS Centre Alliance, comprising the Association of Small & Medium Enterprises, Institute of Valuers & Appraisers, Singapore Business Federation, Singapore Chinese Chamber of Commerce & Industry, Singapore Manufacturing Federation, Tax Academy of Singapore, The Law Society of Singapore and the Institute of Singapore Chartered Accountants (ISCA).

Helping businesses solve real problems
As businesses expand across borders, the challenges they face have become more complex. They are no longer limited to setting up an office or understanding local regulations. Companies today are responding to geopolitical shifts, changing trade policies, supply chain realignment, AI disruption, cyber risks and growing sustainability expectations, while trying to build trusted relationships in unfamiliar markets. No single profession can solve these challenges alone.

The PS Centre brings together professionals from different disciplines, including legal, accounting, tax, corporate secretarial, HR, valuation, sustainability and business consulting, so businesses can access coordinated support instead of approaching each profession separately.

Beyond professional advice, businesses can tap on local business associations, government agencies, chambers of commerce and ecosystem partners connected through the PS Centre network.

More than a networking platform
The Singapore PS Centre will also introduce the Business Growth Clinic, a new initiative where business owners can bring real business challenges to a multidisciplinary panel of professionals.

Whether the challenge is expanding overseas, adopting AI, raising capital, restructuring a business or planning succession, businesses will receive practical guidance and be connected with the right professionals to help move their plans forward.

Early results from the network
Although the network is still in its early stages, businesses are already seeing results. Through the Shanghai PS Centre, Singapore based accounting firm Unity Assurance secured new business opportunities in China and subsequently established a joint venture with a local partner.

The Nanjing PS Centre supported firms such as Morningstar and Fiducia LLP with local business introductions, office setup and talent connections as they expanded into China. In Vietnam, the Ho Chi Minh City PS Centre has supported Singapore businesses such as Koda Ltd and JDI Ventures in navigating different aspects of regional expansion, such as guidance on pressing cross-border matters and local business introductions to support market entry. The Centre has also connected Vietnamese technology companies such as Techvify and Vinova with relevant networks and market insights to support their entry into Singapore.

These examples demonstrate how trusted local networks can shorten the time needed for businesses to enter new markets while reducing uncertainty.

Strengthening Singapore’s position as a trusted business hub
The Singapore PS Centre complements Singapore’s position as a global business and financial hub by extending trusted professional services into key markets across Asia.

As more centres are established, businesses will be able to tap on one connected network instead of building relationships from scratch in every country.

For Singapore professional services firms, it also creates new opportunities to support clients expanding overseas and to build partnerships with firms across the region.

Mr Lee Boon Teck, President, ISCA, said: “Business is becoming increasingly regional, but professional services are still largely organised country by country. Companies expanding overseas often spend months trying to identify trusted advisers and build local networks. The PS Centre network changes that. We are bringing together trusted professional firms, business associations and local partners across Asia, making it easier for businesses to expand with confidence. Our vision is simple. Wherever a business chooses to grow in Asia, there should be a Professional Services Centre ready to support that journey.”

Ms Junie Fo, Vice President & Head, Professional Services, Singapore Economic Development Board, said “Professional services firms play a critical role in helping Singapore-based enterprises navigate the rapidly evolving global business environment. The Singapore PS Centre will provide access to different professional services to support enterprises’ regional growth needs. EDB looks forward to working with members of the PS Centre Alliance to advance the Professional Services ecosystem.”

About the Professional Services Centre
The Professional Services Centre is a collaborative initiative by the PS Centre Alliance to support businesses expanding across borders through trusted professional expertise, local business networks and market access. The network currently spans Singapore, Hongqiao (Shanghai), Ho Chi Minh City and Nanjing, with further expansion planned across Asia and the Middle East.

The new skincare system brings together FDA-cleared, NASA-inspired light technology, complementary formulations and award-winning patented design by Karim Rashid, following a Hong Kong launch attended by more than 2,000 guests

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 21 July 2026 – TELOSIN has introduced “The Dual Transformation,” a new approach to personalised at-home skincare built around two dedicated light-based beauty devices—the Y PRO Red and Y PRO Blue—and the complementary Lumiactive Collection.

TEL_TO1TO2Upgrade_Edm_v2-08.png

The launch brings together advanced light-based technology, targeted skincare formulations and award-winning patented design created in collaboration with internationally acclaimed designer Karim Rashid.

Rather than incorporating multiple generalised modes within a single device, TELOSIN developed two distinct devices and two dedicated skincare pathways.

Y PRO Red is designed for a rejuvenation-focused skincare routine, supporting the appearance of firmness, texture and radiance.

Y PRO Blue is designed for routines focused on blemish-prone, oily or visibly unsettled skin.

The devices combine FDA-cleared technology with light-based innovation inspired by scientific developments associated with NASA research.

Introducing the Lumiactive Collection

WWW05507-2.jpg

The Y PRO devices are accompanied by the new Lumiactive Collection, comprising:

  • LUMIRED Red LED Treatment Gel
  • LUMIBLUE Blue LED Treatment Gel
  • Blue Light Defense Cream

Together, the devices and complementary formulations establish TELOSIN’s connected Prepare, Treat, Protect approach to skincare.

The dedicated Lumiactive treatment gels are designed to prepare the skin for the corresponding Y PRO routine, while Blue Light Defense Cream completes the ritual as part of the brand’s wider daily skincare approach.

By developing the devices and formulations as one connected collection, TELOSIN aims to make advanced light-based skincare easier to understand, personalise and incorporate into regular at-home routines.

The result is a complete ecosystem built around two targeted transformations: a red-light pathway focused on rejuvenation and a blue-light pathway focused on skin clarity and balance.

Scientific Insight Behind TELOSIN

LI9A7401-33.jpg

TELOSIN has expanded the scientific conversation surrounding the launch through its expert video series, “The Science Behind Telosin,” available on the brand’s website.

The series features expert perspectives from two medical professionals:

Dr. Omer Wolf, MD, a specialist in plastic and reconstructive surgery and advanced facial aesthetic procedures.

Dr. Uri Berger, MD, a specialist in aesthetic medicine with extensive international medical training and experience.

Through the expert series, TELOSIN provides consumers with accessible information about the principles behind light-based skincare and the evolving relationship between professional aesthetic knowledge, beauty technology and at-home routines.

The inclusion of medical perspectives within the wider educational programme reflects TELOSIN’s commitment to supporting product innovation through informed scientific discussion and responsible consumer education.

Award-Winning Patented Design by Karim Rashid

DSC05589-2.jpg

The Y PRO Red and Y PRO Blue were created in collaboration with Karim Rashid, one of the world’s most recognised contemporary designers.

The devices feature award-winning patented design that combines Rashid’s distinctive visual language with TELOSIN’s advanced beauty technology.

Their fluid silhouettes, individual colour identities and ergonomic forms were developed not simply to contain sophisticated technology, but to transform the devices into desirable contemporary objects that can become a natural part of the user’s daily beauty environment.

The collaboration reflects TELOSIN’s belief that advanced skincare devices should deliver a sophisticated combination of performance, simplicity, comfort and emotional connection.

“The Dual Transformation” Unveiled to More Than 2,000 Guests in Hong Kong

The complete collection was officially presented on 30 June 2026 through “The Dual Transformation,” an immersive launch experience held at WTC Mall in Hong Kong.

The large-scale event welcomed more than 2,000 guests, including consumers, members of the Hong Kong media, influencers, beauty industry professionals and invited partners.

The launch featured internationally acclaimed designer Karim Rashid, MIRROR member Ian Chan, celebrated actress and singer Linda Chung, and Dr. Harvey Ho.

Karim Rashid introduced the creative thinking behind the award-winning patented design of the devices, while Dr. Harvey Ho discussed the different applications and skincare pathways associated with red and blue light technology.

Ian Chan and Linda Chung joined the launch presentation to experience the two routines and demonstrate how the Y PRO devices and complementary Lumiactive formulations can be incorporated into contemporary at-home skincare.

“The Dual Transformation demonstrates that advanced beauty technology does not need to feel clinical or complicated,” said Dr. Harvey Ho.

“By bringing together two dedicated light-based devices with complementary Lumiactive formulations, TELOSIN has created a more focused and intuitive approach to at-home skincare. The distinction between the red and blue light pathways also helps consumers better understand how different technologies can support different skincare needs.”

With more than 2,000 guests attending, the event marked a major public introduction of TELOSIN’s broader product ecosystem: two targeted devices, three complementary skincare formulations and one connected approach to personalised light-based skincare.

A Complete Dual Skincare System

With Y PRO Red, Y PRO Blue and the Lumiactive Collection, TELOSIN is introducing more than two individual beauty devices.

“The Dual Transformation” represents a complete skincare system built around clearly defined objectives, dedicated formulations and award-winning patented design.

It reflects the brand’s wider ambition to make sophisticated light-based technology more personalised, intuitive and accessible, while maintaining the premium design experience expected by contemporary beauty consumers.
