SINGAPORE, May 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Sennheiser has proudly participated in the 11th Asia-Pacific Spectrum Management Conference as the Official Audio Partner. Held in Bangkok, Thailand from 13 – 14 March 2025, this event brought together global policymakers, regulators, and industry leaders to address the most pressing spectrum issues shaping the future of wireless communication and connectivity in the Asia-Pacific region. This event is part of The Global Spectrum Series, the world’s largest collection of regional spectrum policy conferences.

Sennheiser has been an active participant and sponsor of the Asia-Pacific Spectrum Management Conference since 2013, promoting the inclusion of PMSE (Programme Making and Special Events) in spectrum policy dialogues and, more specifically, highlighting the inherent need for allocation of frequency bands to operate wireless microphone systems in the region.

Sennheiser was represented at this year’s conference by Vaughan John, Spectrum Policy and Standards Manager, who contributed to an expert panel discussion, shedding light on the evolving influences of 5G on PMSE. John also shared insights on the “5G Story in Audio PMSE,” highlighting how the new DECT NR+ standard will finally make the promises of 5G towards PMSE come true, and elaborating on the work of the MERCI project.

“As new spectrum policies emerge, it is critical for PMSE to have a voice in the conversation,” said John. “Sennheiser is committed to collaborating with regulators and stakeholders to ensure the needs of the audio industry are included in discussion when developing spectrum policy—especially in regions as diverse and dynamic as Asia-Pacific.”

“DECT NR+ will fulfil the promises that 5G made towards PMSE users,” says Vaughan John, Spectrum Policy and Standards Manager at Sennheiser

Sennheiser’s involvement in the conference highlights its long-standing engagement with spectrum policy and its ongoing mission to protect and promote spectrum access for wireless microphones and audio PMSE users.

The Asia-Pacific Spectrum Management Conference, organized by Forum Global in partnership with the Asia-Pacific Telecommunity (APT) and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), featured sessions focused on spectrum harmonization, mid-band deployment, 6G innovation, and regulatory frameworks for satellite and direct-to-device connectivity.

Sennheiser remains dedicated to supporting the global audio community through thought leadership, industry partnerships, and technology solutions that meet the demands of today’s wireless landscape.

These partnerships aim to accelerate agri-food innovation, AI integration, and halal product development in support of Vision 2030

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, May 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Tanmiah Food Company (“Tanmiah”, “TFC” or the “Company”, 2281 on the Saudi Exchange), established in 1962, one of the Middle East’s leading providers of fresh poultry, processed proteins, animal feed, health products and restaurants operator, was formally recognized for its transformative Memorandum of Understanding (MoUs) with Griffith Foods and Poulta Inc. during the Saudi-US Investment Forum in Riyadh yesterday.

These strategic partnerships with U.S. companies reflect Tanmiah’s ongoing commitment to collaborating with international partners and bringing global expertise into the Kingdom. They also underscore our focus on unlocking value across our integrated business units through automation, advanced R&D, and innovation with the aim of positioning Saudi Arabia as a global hub for halal products, ingredients, best-in-class practices, and cutting-edge agri-technologies.

The MoU with Griffith Foods outlines plans to develop a dedicated production and R&D facility in Saudi Arabia for 100% halal food ingredients—including sauces, seasonings, and spice blends—tailored to the tastes of Saudi and regional consumers. The project will support local manufacturing and help position the Kingdom as a regional hub for halal ingredient production. As the halal industry increasingly emphasizes ethical sourcing, sustainability, and innovation, Tanmiah stands at the forefront of this transformation.

By combining Tanmiah’s strong market presence with Griffith Foods’ global ingredients expertise, the collaboration aims to deliver healthy, locally developed, and globally competitive solutions that align with evolving consumer expectations in both domestic and export markets.

The MoU with Poulta Inc., a U.S.-based agricultural technology company, to accelerate the digital transformation of Tanmiah’s poultry production chain lays the foundation for automating Tanmiah’s farms and facilities using advanced technologies ranging from the Internet of Things, big data, cloud computing and generative AI. The partnership will include the establishment of a joint venture to provide digital transformation services to the broader regional livestock businesses, as well as an R&D center in Saudi Arabia dedicated to agri-tech innovation.

Through this collaboration, Tanmiah aims to enhance operational efficiency, reduce costs and carbon emissions, and promote smart resource management while adopting higher standards of animal welfare, better delivery of healthy halal food through data-driven decision-making and integrated automation across its business segments.

Commenting on the recognition, His Excellency Amr Al-Dabbagh, Chairman of Tanmiah Food Company, stated:

“These strategic partnerships reflect our long-term vision to place Saudi Arabia at the heart of global halal food innovation. By joining forces with trusted international partners, we are creating a future where sustainable, healthy, halal food production, advanced technology, and local expertise collaborate to serve the region.” 

Zulfiqar Hamadani, Group CEO of Tanmiah Food Company, added:

“At Tanmiah, we see innovation and sustainability as inseparable. Through these agreements, we are accelerating our journey toward intelligent, data-driven operations that not only improve efficiency and animal welfare but also strengthen our ability to deliver high-quality, sustainable, healthy, halal food in line with the evolving consumer expectations.”

These milestone agreements underscore Tanmiah’s unwavering commitment to aligning with Saudi Vision 2030 by fostering innovation, enhancing local capabilities, and promoting global partnerships that drive economic diversification. As Tanmiah continues to scale its impact, the company remains dedicated to shaping the future of food—where technology, sustainability, and halal excellence converge to meet the needs of a growing global population.
