(Nasdaq: NAAS) (“NaaS” or the “Company”), the first U.S.-listed EV charging service company in China, today announced its successful deployment of the “Zhejiang Province Charging Infrastructure Governance and Supervision Service Platform” (the ‘Platform’). Launched in collaboration with the Energy Bureau of Zhejiang Province, this initiative represents a strategic expansion of the Company’s footprint in digital infrastructure solutions for EV charging services.

NaaS was awarded the contract to lead the project in December 2023 following a competitive bidding process. Leveraging government cloud resources and data integration from the Development and Reform Commission, the Platform integrates NaaS’s proprietary NEF (NaaS Energy Fintech) system to address critical charging infrastructure needs, including optimizing the layout, enhancing service uniformity, and enforcing operational standards across the province. The Platform not only streamlines the governance of existing facilities but also guides the strategic deployment of new charging sites to ensure comprehensive coverage and accessibility.

Ms. Yang Wang, Chief Executive Officer of NaaS, commented, “The operational launch of the Zhejiang Province Charging Infrastructure Governance and Supervision Service Platform marks a significant milestone in our strategic initiatives. Zhejiang Province leads the country in new energy vehicle ownership and number of public charging piles. Powered by NaaS’s digital and AI capabilities, this Platform not only enhances the efficiency of charging infrastructure but also sets a benchmark for regulatory governance in the industry nationwide. We are proud to lead this transformative project, supporting the provincial government’s goals of accelerating new energy vehicle adoption and advancing sustainable transportation solutions.”

Mr. Steven Sim, Chief Financial Officer of NaaS, commented, “Deploying the Platform marks a pivotal step in advancing the operational and financial performance of our EV charging infrastructure in Zhejiang Province. This initiative not only enhances our footprint in the region but also leverages our proprietary NEF system to potentially unlock new monetization opportunities. The successful rollout in Zhejiang serves as a model for potential expansion into other markets, demonstrating our capability to deliver scalable and financially viable technology solutions.”

Additionally, with the support of artificial intelligence, digital analytics, and other technological capabilities, the Company continues to improve operational efficiency while significantly reducing operating expenses. In the second quarter of 2024, the Company’s marketing expenses accounted for 57% of revenue, compared with 177% in the second quarter of 2023. During the same period, the Company’s cumulative registered users increased by over 60%, cumulative transaction users increased by over 90%, and user activity reached a record high. As NaaS continues to invest in technology research and development and deepens its data analysis and insight capabilities, the Company expects to achieve lower customer acquisition costs, higher user engagement, and business efficiency gains.

ScienceWerx Launches MENA Chapter Headquarters in Saudi Arabia, with $100 Million EverGreen Pre-Seed Fund to Transform Regional IP Commercialization in the MENA region

Targeting high-growth sectors such as AI, healthtech, and deep-tech

FREDERICK, Md.  , Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — ScienceWerx has just marked a global milestone with the successful conclusion of launching MENA Chapter Headquarters with a $100 Million EverGreen Pre-Seed Fund in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The EverGreen fund will transform the region’s research capabilities into market successes, targeting high-growth sectors such as AI, healthtech, and deep-tech—all aligned with Saudi Arabia’s strategic ambitions.

Saudi Arabia’s innovation ecosystem holds immense value, yet much of it remains untapped in labs. The EverGreen fund will provide the support and infrastructure to propel these innovations to market.” – Dr. Khalid Saqr, ScienceWerx Board Advisor

In KSA and the GCC region, the opportunities in AI, biotech, and deep-tech are substantial but underutilized. Despite Saudi Arabia’s $5.1 billion annual R&D investment, a mere 5-7% ROI points to a gap between potential and performance. Dr. Khalid Saqr, ScienceWerx Board Advisor and MENA Chapter chairperson emphasizes, “Saudi Arabia’s innovation ecosystem holds immense value, yet much of it remains untapped in labs. The EverGreen fund will provide the support and infrastructure to propel these innovations to market.”

EverGreen’s value goes beyond capital infusion. Patrick Haley, ScienceWerx (USA) co-founder and chairman, notes, “The fund creates an ecosystem, bridging MENA’s $43 billion IP gap through partnerships, tech transfer offices, and incubation resources that speed up ambitious projects.” Bassem Kadry, co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer, adds, “Saudi Arabia has the resources to lead MENA’s knowledge economy, but critical infrastructure is needed. EverGreen brings that missing piece.” Moreover, Lewa Abu Khait, Regional Partner in KSA, describes the fund as a unique leap forward. “It’s a catalyst for Saudi innovators, transforming local R&D into globally competitive businesses.”

The EverGreen Pre-Seed Fund opens a new era in MENA’s IP commercialization, inviting Saudi innovators and investors to shape the future of the region’s knowledge economy.
