VinFast Philippines honored at the 2025 Legacy Awards for Business
The Legacy Awards, first launched in 2020, are a prestigious recognition platform that celebrates businesses, brands, and individuals who have successfully integrated sustainable development thinking into their core strategies. The program also highlights impactful business social responsibility (BSR) initiatives that address environmental, economic, and human development issues.
With the guiding message,"Because your business is your legacy," the awards not only serve as a platform to honor achievements but also as a call to action for the business community to invest more meaningfully in projects that benefit society and future generations.
VinFast Philippines' recognition at this year's awards reflects the brand's long-term commitment to the Philippines. The company has not only introduced a line-up of smart, high-quality, eco-friendly electric vehicles but also actively contributed to community development through a series of meaningful social responsibility initiatives.
Mr. Abner Berdos, Deputy CEO of Sales and Dealer Network Development at VinFast Philippines, shared: "We are truly honored to receive the Legacy Award for Business – a meaningful recognition of the journey VinFast is committed to in the Philippines. From day one, our mission has extended beyond delivering high-quality EVs; we strive to be a catalyst for positive change – where green mobility, sustainable growth, and social responsibility go hand in hand. Through breakthrough programs such as affordable financing schemes and partnerships to expand nationwide charging infrastructure, we aim to make EV ownership accessible to all Filipinos, regardless of location or income level. This award affirms our belief that a business can thrive while keeping people and the planet at the heart of every strategic decision, contributing to a cleaner environment, economic progress, and a more sustainable future for generations to come."
The Chairman of the organizing committee, Director Wilfredo Jordan Lemque Jr., noted: "VinFast Philippines has made a significant mark on the journey toward sustainable mobility in our country. More than just an EV company, VinFast is building a people-centered smart transportation ecosystem with strong commitments to the environment, education, and community development. This perfectly embodies the spirit of the Legacy Awards: celebrating businesses that leave behind more than just profit – they leave behind purpose. We believe VinFast will continue to serve as a model for a new generation of enterprises – innovative, responsible, and driven by action."

Macaron AI, the World's First Personal Agent, Officially Launches, Ushering in the Era of Experience AI
SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 18 August 2025 – Macaron AI , the world's first Personal Agent, has officially launched, a category-defining AI product that reimagines how artificial intelligence fits into daily life, not just work faster. Macaron AI marks a pivotal shift from productivity AI to what experts now call Experience AI—It is a companion that understands your personality, preferences, and habits to support daily life. By modeling your tastes, history, and goals, it can analyze conversations in real time and instantly create personalized mini-apps, streamlining and enhancing everyday routines. Technology Beyond Prompts Macaron AI introduces a new architecture built on agentic memory. Unlike prompt-based systems, its memory is trained through reinforcement learning (RL) to autonomously retrieve, summarize, and update user context across sessions. Each interaction begins with a specialized memory token, enabling Macaron AI to remember not just what was said, but who the user is. ADVERTISEMENT This innovation allows Macaron AI to generate and maintain large-scale outputs—such as personalized mini-apps exceeding 100,000 lines of code—while preserving coherence and context. It also sets a new benchmark in efficiency, training a 671B-parameter model with just 48 H100 GPUs. By applying RL to both reasoning and memory, Macaron AI achieves scalable, consistent, and deeply personalized performance. Trained to Evolve, Designed to Care Macaron doesn't offer 'future you only watch' like a tech demo. It delivers: On-demand generation of real tools that respond instantly to individual needs Ongoing relationship-building based on memory Interactions designed to guide behavioral change All of this is powered by RL training and Deep Memory, the foundation of a truly usable Personal Agent. Crucially, these tools require no coding or complex setup. Macaron can instantly generate custom 'mini-apps' for each user, building small, high-precision applications or tools in as little as 15 minutes. This marks a major departure from the one-size-fits-all assistant model — Macaron is a memory bank, a programmer, and a companion that grows into whatever is needed to enrich a user's life. Redefining the AI Landscape Macaron AI redefines what AI can be—not just a tool for work, but a companion for life. As the first true Personal Agent of the Experience AI era, it positions Macaron AI at the forefront of a new standard.
