Grant Cardone and Tony Delgado Share Stage at CPAC Latino
The event, a collaboration between the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) and Delgado's Latino Wall Street movement, drew hundreds of attendees from across the country. Entrepreneurs, political leaders, and young professionals gathered to hear hard truths and actionable strategies from two of the most dynamic figures in their fields.
Cardone, known worldwide for his 10X Rule and multi-billion-dollar real estate empire, focused his message on economic independence and aggressive goal-setting. 'If you want freedom, you need capital. And if you want capital, you need courage,' Cardone told the crowd. 'Stop thinking small. Nobody's coming to save you.'
Delgado, a tech entrepreneur and advocate for wealth-building in underserved communities, spoke with equal intensity. 'We're no longer waiting for a seat at the table. We're building our own,' he said. 'Latinos are the backbone of the American economy, but we need to become owners, not just workers. This is our time.'
The CPAC x Latino Wall Street collaboration signaled a larger movement: the merging of political influence and economic empowerment within the Latino community. Panels throughout the day addressed issues such as decentralized finance, real estate investing, immigration reform, and building generational wealth.
Both Cardone and Delgado emphasized self-reliance, discipline, and urgency. They didn't hold back.
'We are done being silent,' Delgado added. 'We are done being passive. The new generation of leaders looks like us — and talks like us.'
The event wrapped with a networking session and calls for continued collaboration between entrepreneurs and policy leaders. Organizers say this is just the beginning of a national movement.

Antengene Announces Poster Presentation of ATG-022 (Claudin 18.2 ADC) at ESMO 2025
SHANGHAI and HONG KONG, July 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Antengene Corporation Limited ('Antengene', SEHK: a leading innovative, commercial-stage global biopharmaceutical company dedicated to discovering, developing and commercialising first-in-class and/or best-in-class medicines for cancer, today announced that an abstract featuring the latest data from a Phase I/II study of the Claudin 18.2 antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), ATG-022, has been accepted for poster presentation at the 2025 European Society for Medical Oncology Annual Congress (ESMO 2025), taking place from October 17th to October 21st at the Messe Berlin in Berlin, Germany. Details of the Poster Presentation: ATG-022 (Claudin 18.2 antibody-drug conjugate)Title: Phase I/II study of Claudin 18.2 ADC ATG-022 in patients with advanced gastric/ gastroesophageal junction cancer (CLINCH)Abstract Number: 2907Presentation Number: 2113PDate: October 19, 2025 About ATG-022 ATG-022 is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) designed to target CLDN18.2, a member of the Claudin family of cell adhesion molecules. Under normal conditions, Claudins are located within tight junctions between cells, forming a barrier to regulate cell permeability. However, in cancer, Claudins are aberrantly expressed on the cell surface due to changes in cell polarity. CLDN18.2 is frequently overexpressed in a range of primary malignant tumors, including gastric, esophageal, cholangiocarcinoma, and pancreatic cancers. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has awarded Orphan Drug Designations to ATG-022, for gastric and pancreatic cancers. Data from the ongoing CLINCH study demonstrated that ATG-022 delivers robust efficacy across all levels of CLDN18.2 expression in gastric cancer patients, including those with high, low, and ultra-low expression. This broad activity positions ATG-022 as a potential market leader, capable of addressing the largest patient population with CLDN18.2-positive tumors. Furthermore, the strong efficacy observed in patients with low CLDN18.2 expression suggests promise for treating other tumor types with similar expression profiles. About Antengene Antengene Corporation Limited ('Antengene', SEHK: is a leading commercial-stage R&D-driven global biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development, manufacturing and commercialization of innovative first-in-class/best-in-class therapeutics for the treatment of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors, in realizing its vision of 'Treating Patients Beyond Borders'.

SMU issues its inaugural Sustainability Bond, raising S$150 million to advance environmental and social initiatives
SINGAPORE, July 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ –– Singapore Management University (SMU) today announced that it has completed the issuance of a S$150 million Sustainability Bond. The proceeds of the Bond are earmarked for financing and refinancing green and social projects that deliver clear environmental and social benefits, as guided by SMU's newly established Sustainable Financing Framework. The Sustainability Bond, the first such bond by an Autonomous University (AU) in Singapore, was issued on 28 July 2025 at a coupon rate of 2.022% and will mature on 28 July 2032. The Sole Lead Manager and Bookrunner for the bond issuance was Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited (OCBC). SMU President, Professor Lily Kong, said, 'This inaugural Sustainability Bond is more than just a financial instrument — it reflects our belief that universities must play a leading role in building a more sustainable and inclusive future. We've been guided by our Sustainability Blueprint since 2022 and are proud to contribute to the priorities set out in the Singapore Green Plan 2030. As a university, we take seriously our role in shaping future-ready graduates who are not only intellectually agile, but also attuned to the pressing challenges of our time. By embedding sustainability in our operations and investments, we hope to lead with purpose and conviction.' 'Launching this bond in our 25th anniversary year feels especially meaningful — it signals our intent to grow with purpose, and to leave a positive, lasting impact on the communities we serve,' she added. SMU Sustainable Finance Framework In June 2025, SMU established a holistic and comprehensive Sustainable Financing Framework which aligns SMU's financial practice with its sustainability goals (outlined in the SMU Sustainability Blueprint) and embodies SMU's deep commitment to sustainability and corporate social responsibility. The Framework outlines the criteria and guidelines for SMU to allocate and manage the proceeds raised from sustainable finance transactions. Developed in collaboration with its sole sustainability advisor, OCBC, the Framework provides the foundation for SMU to engage in sustainable finance transactions such as green, social and sustainability bonds and loans. It guides SMU's issuance of sustainable finance debt instruments to finance or refinance projects and assets that deliver measurable environmental and/ or social benefits. These include green buildings, energy efficiency upgrades, green infocommunications technology infrastructure, sustainable water and waste management, as well as programmes that promote inclusive education, knowledge sharing, and mental health and wellbeing. Mr Lim Boon Wee, SMU's Senior Vice President, Administration, said, 'This bond issuance is a strategic milestone for SMU as we align our financial strategy with our sustainability goals, and channel capital to where it matters most. It enables us to finance infrastructure and initiatives that enhance environmental performance and social impact, while ensuring transparency and accountability to our stakeholders.' The Framework received a Second Party Opinion from ratings agency, Moody's Investors Service (Moody's), affirming its alignment with internationally recognised standards and its significant contribution to sustainable outcomes. Moody's further assessed the Framework as having a significant contribution to sustainability, giving it an overall Sustainability Quality Score of SQS2 – Very Good. SMU also maintains a Aaa rating by Moody's, the highest possible rating in assessing creditworthiness, reflecting the University's robust institutional framework and healthy operating performance. First Sustainability Bond issuance by a Singapore university SMU's Sustainability Bond is the first such bond issued by an AU in Singapore, and is differentiated in the scope of impact. Apart from green initiatives with environmental benefits, SMU is committing a portion of the proceeds raised to fund social programmes that promote inclusive education benefitting its students from low-income families. This differs from Green Bonds (focusing solely on projects with environmental benefits) and Sustainability-Linked Bonds (which are tied to predefined sustainability performance targets only) previously issued by other universities in Singapore. Ms Elaine Lam, Head of Global Corporate Banking, OCBC, said, 'With our strong track record in guiding clients through their green transition with strategic advisory and targeted financing solutions, we are excited to strengthen our long-standing partnership with SMU by supporting its first Sustainability Bond issuance covering both environmental projects as well as social programmes that promote inclusive education. A first by an autonomous university in Singapore, this bond issuance speaks to SMU's leadership in integrating sustainability into its core mission, potentially inspiring its students to become future leaders who advocate for both environmental stewardship and social equity.' Highlights of SMU's sustainability-related achievements Ranked 18th globally in the Environmental Sustainability lens, Environmental Impact category for the QS World University Rankings: Sustainability 2025 Winner, Sustainability Institution of the Year, 2024 International Green Gown Awards Won the fifth consecutive Silver Ribbon Mental Health Award in as many years since the awards were inaugurated by Silver Ribbon (Singapore) in 2020 Entire campus awarded the Green Mark Platinum certification, with the first Green Mark Platinum Zero Energy building in the city centre First university in Singapore to introduce sustainability literacy and community service as graduation requirements – End –

CK Hutchison wants Chinese firm to join bidding for its US$22.8 billion ports business
HONG KONG: CK Hutchison said on Monday it wants a major Chinese strategic investor to join the BlackRock-led consortium bidding for its US$22.8 billion ports business, after media reported that state-owned China COSCO Shipping Corp aims to join the group. The Hong Kong conglomerate in a statement said changes to the composition of the consortium and structure of the transaction will be necessary to secure regulatory approval, and that it will allow as much time as needed to achieve that. A 145-day exclusivity period for talks between the parties expired on Sunday. CK Hutchison's Hong Kong-listed shares were due to open higher just shy of one per cent on Monday. A deal would cover 43 ports in 23 countries including two ports near the Panama Canal which links the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. US President Donald Trump initially hailed the sale as "reclaiming" the Panama Canal after his administration called for the removal of what it said was Chinese ownership of some ports. US investment firm BlackRock declined to comment. COSCO, Italian consortium member MSC and the White House did not immediately respond to requests for comment. China views the potential sale as a threat to its interests, seeing the consortium as a proxy for growing American influence in a region it considers economically and geopolitically significant. State-backed media, in criticism of the sale, said China has significant national interests in the matter and that selling the ports would be a betrayal of the country. China's top market regulator said it was paying close attention to developments and stressed the deal would be subject to a Chinese antitrust review. CK Hutchison in its statement said any new investor must be a "significant" member of the consortium. "This is an interesting development. A PRC (China) investor with majority control of the consortium sounds like a non-starter in my view. An investor with a less than 50 per cent stake you would think should keep everyone happy," said strategist David Blennerhassett of Ballingal Investment Advisors who publishes on SmartKarma.
