Capitalizing on growing opportunities in the hydrogen technology sector

HONG KONG, March 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — China International Development Corporation Limited (“CIDC” or the “Company”, together with its subsidiaries, the “Group”; Stock Code: 0264) is pleased to announce the successful establishment of its joint venture company, Flex Fuel Eco Company Limited (“JV Company”), formed in collaboration with Flex Fuel Hydrogen Development Group Limited (“Strategic Partner”), has been officially incorporated. Through a strategic reorganization, the JV Company now serves as the holding entity for FlexFuel Hydrogen Development (Shenzhen) Company Limited (“FFHD”), which has entered into a landmark Strategic Collaboration Agreement with MCC Tiangong Group Corporation Limited (“MCC Tiangong”).

The JV Company has rapidly scaled operations, importing and installing *over 60 hydrogen decarbonizing and cleaning stations* across more than 20 strategic locations in the PRC. This strategic initiative underscores the Group’s commitment to advancing green energy solutions and capitalizing on growing opportunities in the hydrogen technology sector. 

MCC Tiangong, a leading construction enterprise jointly owned by China Minmetals Corporation (“CMC”) and Metallurgical Corporation of China Limited (“MCC”), is affiliated with CMC—a state-owned enterprise directly under the Chinese Central Government. This partnership leverages MCC Tiangong’s extensive industry network and CIDC’s innovative hydrogen technologies. 

Hydrogen Cleaning Systems: Technology and Market Penetration

Under the Strategic Collaboration Agreement, FFHD will deploy its proprietary hydrogen injection cleaning systems (branded as Flex Fuel) for engines across automobiles, vessels, aircraft, and heavy machinery.

To date, FFHD has secured multiple service agreements with major PRC conglomerates, including Jilin Dacheng Fangxin Automobile Service Co., Ltd., operator of the renowned “Dacheng Truck Repair” network—one of China’s largest automotive repair and maintenance chains. 

Operational Expansion and Revenue Outlook

Since its inception, the JV Company has rapidly scaled operations, importing and installing *over 60 hydrogen decarbonizing and cleaning stations* across more than 20 strategic locations in the PRC, including Beijing, Wuhan, Xinjiang, the Northwest region, Guangdong province, and Macau. Service agreements are typically structured for an initial term of two years, extendable upon mutual agreement. 

The Group has already commenced revenue generation from these initiatives, with expectations for a sustained and growing income stream. 

Future Prospects and Shareholder Value

CIDC commented: “Our collaboration with MCC Tiangong marks a transformative step in positioning CIDC at the forefront of hydrogen innovation. By integrating FFHD’s cutting-edge technology with MCC Tiangong’s unparalleled market reach, we are poised to capture significant opportunities in China’s green energy transition. The Board remains dedicated to exploring new ventures that enhance long-term shareholder value.”

New Partners Showcase Digital Thread Innovations at ISG Xperience Summit

NEW YORK, March 28, 2025 /CNW/ – Boardwalktech Software Corp. (“Boardwalktech”) (TSXV: BWLK) (OTCQB: BWLKF), a leading Information Intelligence software company, announced a partnership with Trillium Digital Services to further advance the Boardwalk Platform and Trillium’s solutions with a focus on supply chain solutions. The companies detailed their collaboration at last week’s ISG Xperience Summit in New York, a two-day event for industry leaders to explore AI-powered experience transformation strategies.

“The collaboration between Trillium and Boardwalktech represents exactly what today’s enterprises need: solutions that bridge the gap between legacy systems and cutting-edge innovations,” said Michael Ciatto, a recently announced Managing Partner of Trillium Digital Services. “Our clients are increasingly recognizing that digital thread capabilities are not just nice-to-have features but essential building blocks for self-driving supply chains. This partnership enhances our ability to deliver technologies that improve employee experiences while driving measurable business outcomes.”

Mr. Ciatto noted that Trillium’s clients have responded positively to Boardwalktech’s approach, particularly in industries dealing with complex supply chains and regulatory requirements where maintaining digital provenance is critical.

“What’s particularly exciting about this partnership is how it aligns with our mission to build today’s business with tomorrow’s technologies,” Mr. Ciatto added. “By providing solutions that acknowledge the reality of how work actually flows through organizations, we’re helping clients create more resilient, adaptive operations while improving the employee experience.”

Andrew T. Duncan, Chief Executive Officer of Boardwalktech, emphasized the mutual benefits of the partnership: “Working with Trillium Digital Services has been instrumental in accelerating our market penetration across diverse industries. Their domain expertise has helped us refine Unity Central through an increased voice of customer interactions and real-world applications. This collaboration has allowed us to adapt our platform to address specific industry challenges while maintaining the core capabilities that make our digital ledger technology unique.”

Other Highlights for Partners at ISG Xperience Summit

Boardwalktech:

The ISG Xperience Summit event served as a platform for Boardwalktech to showcase Unity Central, its recent product development that enables organizations to combine documents and create a digital chain of custody across disparate enterprise information systems. This approach provides a comprehensive digital thread and audit trail of information movement, addressing a critical gap in enterprise technology ecosystems and provides a higher order of operational data while the immutability of the time-stamped digital threads reduced hallucinations for use in AI and Agentic AI driven solutions.

Boardwalktech’s digital ledger platform has found traction among Fortune 500 companies, across food manufacturing, technology, telecommunications, and consumer product sectors as these enterprises utilize Boardwalktech’s solutions. Boardwalktech’s unique method of managing vast amounts of structured and unstructured data enables multiple parties to effectively work on the same data simultaneously while preserving fidelity and provenance.

Trillium:

Coinciding with the summit, Trillium Digital Services welcomed Michael Ciatto as a new Managing Partner. Mr. Ciatto, who brings over 15 years of experience in digital transformation and systems integration, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership with Boardwalktech.

The ISG Xperience Summit also featured a standout presentation by Deborah Dull, Managing Partner at Trillium Digital Services, titled “Breaking the Rules: How Self-Driving Processes Are Rewriting Technology Implementation.” Ms. Dull’s session explored how agentic workforces are transforming both employee and customer experiences while accelerating business growth.

“Today’s digital landscape demands solutions that acknowledge work happens outside formal systems,” said Ms. Dull. “The most successful organizations are those building technology strategies that embrace the digital spaces in between, creating seamless experiences for both employees and customers.”
