Published

on

SINGAPORE, Nov. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The Xiaomi Internet Partner Conference (MIPC Singapore 2025) successfully concluded on November 27th in Singapore, bringing together over 100 leading partners from across the industry.

During the conference, Mr. Qiang Song, General Manager of Xiaomi’s International Internet Business Department, outlined the department’s business strategy. Through its extensive device network and HyperOS platform, Xiaomi enables seamless connectivity across user scenarios. This foundation supports a comprehensive and efficient application and game ecosystem, alongside content and service solutions, enhancing user experience. The company offers partners comprehensive business solutions to accelerate growth, including advertising-based user acquisition, in-app ad monetization, and game publishing services.

In the realm of apps and games distribution, Xiaomi’s official app store, GetApps, is now available in over 100 markets, with over 260 million monthly active users and more than 30 million daily installations.

Beyond popular applications, GetApps offers curated content and exclusive discounts of up to 10% on in-app purchases. For developers, it provides an open ecosystem powered by Xiaomi’s proprietary OEM capabilities. The platform’s Minicard feature enables frictionless app distribution across Xiaomi devices through end-to-end optimization, helping developers achieve 26% higher conversion rates and a 20% increase in Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) when integrated with Xiaomi Payment Solution for monetization.

In content and service distribution, Xiaomi has established a new content ecosystem featuring Granular Services, powered by Xiaomi HyperOS for instant accessibility. By deconstructing apps into core service modules, Xiaomi allows users to add these services as widgets directly to their home screens with a single tap. These widgets provide live previews with real-time status updates, eliminating the need to download full apps. Through a professional widget store operating across various scenarios, users can access developers’ core services more quickly and conveniently, significantly enhancing conversion rates.

Xiaomi also excels in digital marketing through its OEM native ad experience and AI-powered platform. Using OS-level data, intelligent algorithms, and a wide range of touchpoints, developers can execute highly effective user acquisition campaigns on Xiaomi’s platform. These unique capabilities helped secure Xiaomi’s No. 3 ranking in the 2024 AppsFlyer Power Ranking for Android Non-Gaming.

For monetization, Xiaomi maximizes the commercial value of applications through the Columbus Monetization Platform. This platform helps developers boost in-app advertising revenue by combining premium direct clients with demand-side platforms, providing SDK integration for standard ad formats and processes, and offering support from a dedicated team of specialists. It has successfully integrated three mainstream mediation platforms and collaborates with over 1,500 apps across 30 regions. Combined with on-device capabilities such as Minicard, the platform delivers improved monetization performance, achieving a 10% increase in Effective Cost Per Mille (eCPM).

Xiaomi’s overseas internet business continues to show strong momentum. According to Xiaomi Corporation’s Q3 2024 quarterly results, revenue from Xiaomi’s internet services reached a record high of RMB 8.5 billion, with a gross profit margin of 77.5%. Notably, overseas internet revenue grew by 18.3% year-over-year to RMB 2.7 billion, also reaching a historical high, accounting for 32.5% of the total internet services revenue.

“Through our core system capabilities, we remain committed to building a sustainable open ecosystem for apps, services, and content that delivers optimized user experiences and efficient user acquisition, while offering partners competitive monetization opportunities,” said Mr. Qiang Song, “Staying true to our user-centric vision and ‘Grow with Xiaomi’ strategy, we will continue to create value and explore boundless possibilities for our users and partners.”

The QKS Group SPARK Matrix™ provides competitive analysis and ranking of the leading Managed Security Services (MSS) vendors.Kaspersky’s comprehensive service and customer experience management has received strong ratings for service excellence and customer impact parameters.

MIDDLETON, Mass., Nov. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — QKS Group has named Kaspersky a technology leader in its 2024 SPARK Matrix™ analysis of Managed Security Services (MSS) market.

The QKS Group SPARK Matrix™ evaluates vendors based on service excellence and customer impact. It offers an in-depth analysis of global market dynamics, major trends, vendor landscapes, and competitive positioning. By providing competitive analysis and ranking of leading technology vendors, the SPARK MatrixTM delivers strategic insights that help users access provider capabilities, differentiate competitively, and understand market positions.

Kaspersky was chosen as a leader in the 2024 SPARK MatrixTM: Managed Security Services (MSS) due to its comprehensive capabilities in security monitoring, threat management, and incident handling, along with its ability to enhance operational efficiency and ensure consistent protection across diverse IT environments.

QKS Group defines Managed Security Services (MSS) as “a comprehensive and proactive suite of tailored solutions managed by third parties that continuously monitors, manages, and protects client organizations’ security assets and systems. The services encompass a variety of tailored management and operational services that address both security technologies and specific business outcomes. MSS can be delivered through diverse modes, including the provider’s cloud infrastructure, consultative engagements, staff augmentation, or on-premises. This flexibility provides a robust framework to safeguard devices from threats, exposures, and vulnerabilities in the dynamic IT environment.”

According to Sanjay Kumar, Analyst at QKS Group, “Kaspersky demonstrates a strong position in the Managed Security Services landscape by offering a unified platform designed to deliver end-to-end security. Its services extend across key areas such as endpoint protection, hybrid cloud security, and integrated threat detection. The portfolio is further strengthened by capabilities like proactive threat monitoring, vulnerability assessment, threat intelligence-driven insights, SOC optimization, and incident readiness services. These offerings align with enterprise needs for consistent protection and operational efficiency in increasingly complex IT environments. Kaspersky’s ability to address diverse security challenges while maintaining high levels of service excellence and customer impact has positioned the company as a leader in the SPARK Matrix™: Managed Security Services, 2024.”

“We are grateful for the recognition our Managed Security Services have received from QKS Group. We participate in thorough evaluations like these to independently validate that our services have the strong capabilities needed to predict, prevent, detect and respond to cyberattacks, thereby enabling businesses to comprehensively protect all their resources,” comments Veniamin Levtsov, Vice President, Center of Business Expertise, Kaspersky.

The digital landscape is increasingly complex, with expanding cloud services and rapid digital transformation broadening attack surfaces and heightening the risks of data breaches. In this environment, Managed Security Services (MSS) are pivotal in strengthening security postures across diverse organizational needs. As organizations adopt cloud solutions like Malware as a Service (MaaS) and Storage as a Service (SaaS), they benefit from scalability and resource-sharing but also face new security threats. MSS providers enable organizations to manage these risks, ensuring a balanced approach between cloud adoption and security. While MSS traditionally focused on 24/7 monitoring and SIEM-based incident response, advancements now allow for independent solutions on platforms like Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) and Network Detection and Response (NDR). MSS has also broadened to include security assessments, vulnerability management, and log analysis, providing flexible, efficient solutions that support robust security across complex environments.

Since the inauguration of its first photovoltaic power station in 2011, Turpan’s total installed capacity of photovoltaic installations has reached 2.48 million kilowatts. In 2024, the State Grid Turpan Power Supply Company has accelerated the construction of six new energy support projects, enhancing the grid connection services for new energy projects in the Gaochang District, including Qiquan Lake and Tangshan Haitai.
