Gojek and TBS Energi Utama form a joint venture to accelerate the development of Indonesia’s two-wheel electric vehicle ecosystem

Gojek

JAKARTA, INDONESIA - Media OutReach - 18 November 2021 - Gojek, Southeast Asia’s leading mobile on-demand services platform, and PT TBS Energi Utama Tbk (TBS), a leading integrated energy company in Indonesia, today announced the formation of a joint venture to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) in Indonesia. The joint venture, known as Electrum, will act as a platform through which both companies will develop infrastructure for two-wheel EVs throughout the country. Leveraging Gojek’s deep presence in Indonesia and TBS’ capabilities in the energy sector, the two companies will work together to build a comprehensive and scalable EV ecosystem, including two-wheel EV manufacturing, battery packaging, battery swap infrastructure and financing for EV ownership. This joint venture is part of Gojek and TBS’ commitments to achieve Zero Emissions by 2030, which will see Gojek transition its fleet to 100% EVs and TBS invest in clean and renewable energy during the same time period. The collaboration is also in line with the Indonesian Government's plans to make the development of the EV industry a national priority. Gojek CEO and Co-founder, Kevin Aluwi, said, “We have always recognized that strong industry collaboration will be crucial to help solve the most pressing environmental challenges that society faces today. Gojek’s aim is to work together with partners to achieve our sustainability goals, including fully electrifying our transport fleet by 2030. By bringing together the best of Gojek and TBS’ strengths, we will be able to support Indonesia’s transition to building a cleaner, more accessible and sustainable mobility system - ultimately making EVs the norm in our country, contributing to the country’s emissions reduction targets and improving air quality in our cities.” Pandu Sjahrir, Vice President Director of TBS, said, “TBS is fully committed to sustainability and our target of achieving net zero emissions by 2030. This collaboration with Gojek is part of our commitment to reinvest our current earnings in clean and renewable energy, in line with our business transformation goals and aim to become a greener business.” Pandu Sjahrir added, “To enable large-scale adoption of EVs in Indonesia, it is crucial to develop a strong and comprehensive EV ecosystem. Our vast experience and deep understanding of the energy sector, combined with the large scale of the Gojek network, will be a catalyst for the development of the EV industry in Indonesia. As EVs become more widely available, we hope that this will inspire greater confidence in EVs from members of the public and encourage them to give it a try, so that they can also enjoy the many benefits of EVs.” Gojek recently announced an EV and battery swapping pilot scheme in Jakarta in collaboration with Gogoro, Gesit and Pertamina. This will initially comprise 500 EVs, with plans to scale to 5,000 EVs travelling a total of one million kilometers in the future. With this pilot, Gojek customers will be able to select EVs when using the GoRide service in South Jakarta. Driver partners using EVs can also go about their daily routines more efficiently, serving customers across Gojek services such as GoRide, GoFood, GoSend Instant, GoShop and GoMart. The data from this pilot will also be used to further develop the technology and infrastructure for EVs, in order to meet the needs of Gojek’s driver partners, customers and the wider Indonesian market. About Gojek Gojek is Southeast Asia’s leading on-demand platform and a pioneer of the multi-service ecosystem model, providing access to a wide range of services including transportation, food delivery, logistics and more.

National Study from Perfitly Reveals Consumers Eager for Online Fitting Room Solutions to Try Before They Buy, Reduce Hassle of Returns

Perfitly

Perfitly, a virtual reality/augmented reality (VR/AR) and AI-powered virtual fitting room solution that is being integrated into the e-commerce platforms of the nation’s leading retailers, today announced the results from its 2021 Virtual Shopping Habits Report. The study examines shoppers’ attitudes, behaviors and expectations from online shopping, and the types of services that would increase the effectiveness of the digital channel and ease shopper pain points going into the holiday shopping season. Conducted by Perfitly, the study surveyed more than 1,200 respondents, representative of consumers in all main geographical areas of the U.S. Key findings show the pervasiveness of online clothes shopping, shaped by the pandemic; the ongoing struggle by the vast majority of online shoppers to find the right, well-fitting purchase; and the high degree of willingness to use ecommerce tools, such as virtual fitting rooms, to select the right garment and reduce returns. The following is a breakdown of top-level data points: Online Shopping Behavior Survey data shows that the majority of shoppers purchase clothing online, motivated by both the ability to save time and the wide selection of options to choose from. More than 53% of respondents purchase at least 40% or more of their clothing online. The majority of respondents have recently purchased an article of clothing online, with 34% making online purchases within the past 2 weeks and a further 25% within the past month. Only 11% reported that they have not purchased clothes online at all in 2021. Online Shopping Hesitations and Returns The largest concern shoppers have with e-commerce is the inability to try on clothing before purchasing. Additionally, the biggest single reason shoppers return garments purchased online is due to receiving an improper fit. 48% say the inability to try clothes on is their biggest concern with online shopping; 3x more than any other cited reason. 73% of online clothes purchases are returned because of the inability to try it on; 7x more than any other cited reason. Outlook on Virtual Fitting Rooms While the majority of shoppers have not used e-commerce tools to help the selection process, they find the ability to choose a correctly sized garment as the most appealing aspect of virtual fitting rooms. More than half of the respondents have used traditional size charts with measurements, while others have used techniques such as sizing questionnaires and AR filters, showing a desire for online fitting solutions. 44% say the ability to find the correct sized garment is why they’d use a virtual fitting room; 3x more than any other cited reason. While only 7% of respondents have used a virtual fitting room, 76% say they would be more inclined to use virtual fitting room technology if it helps their selection experience and to avoid returns. More than half of respondents prefer to see a representation of themselves in virtual avatars. Holiday Shopping Plans With holiday shopping on the horizon, most shoppers are likely to shop for garments online, aiming to complete their holiday purchases by mid-December. 63% are likely or very likely to purchase clothes online this holiday season. 22% aim to complete holiday shopping by late November, and only 4% have already completed holiday shopping at the time of the survey. 21% plan to shop in early December, with 16% holding off until mid-late December. Kash Vyas, Chief Technology Officer and Co-founder at Perfitly, said, “Retailers are currently looking at a unique opportunity to increase their online presence and harness the demand for effective and engaging online shopping experiences that provide customers with the ability, and peace of mind, to purchase garments that will fit correctly and match their style expectations. Looking ahead, data suggests there’s a growing appetite for everyday shoppers to find better ways to visualize garments to take online shopping to the next level, one that mimics the in-person shopping experience along with the many conveniences of shopping online.” To learn more, please visit www.perfitly.com.

SushiSwap and Anyswap Partner with Telos Blockchain for Access to New Ethereum Virtual Machine Platform

Telos

Today, Telos, one of the most active blockchain platforms in the world according to Blocktivity, announced partnerships with SushiSwap, the largest multichain DeFi/automated market maker platform and leading bridge technology in the world, Anyswap. These partnerships will enable users on both platforms to take advantage of Telos EVM’s speed, scalability, and security against front running whilst trading crypto assets. This is the latest of SushiSwap’s partnerships, after recently gaining the support of other top EVM networks, including Ethereum ($562B), Avalanche ($19.8B), and Polygon ($12.8B). Telos EVM boasts 30x the speed and 100x greater capacity than other leading blockchains, and since Telos offers Ethereum feature-parity, users can use the same functionalities they are used to on a newer, more advanced platform. Through this partnership, SushiSwap users will now have access to: Unbelievably fast swaps: block trade times take just 0.5 seconds, making trades almost instantaneous Increased Scalability: Telos EVM can process thousands of DeFi transactions per second overall providing unmatched performance Gas Fees for Pennies: On Telos EVM, gas fees are negligible opening it up to a larger market of traders and use cases Elimination of Front Running: On other networks, billions of dollars are taken annually, by tactically reordering DeFi Transactions. Because prices are fixed and always pennies, traders will always pay the trade price they were expecting and get the trade conducted in the order they paid Proven Security: EVM’s unique codebase keeps users secure from vulnerabilities found in other EVM’s. The code was recently audited by Sntnl, and revealed a high severity memory code bug found in geth code used by all major EVM chains. Telos EVM now joins the short list of popular EVM chains, such as Polygon Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, and Fantom, that are supported by Anyswap. The integration enables Telos community members to easily move tokens like USDT, ETH, BNB, MATIC, and LINK to and from the Telos EVM using one of the most reliable bridges in the industry. Additionally, Anyswap will provide small amounts of TLOS coins to allow users to buy TLOS on any automated market makers (AMMs) and decentralized exchanges (DEXes) that are supported on the Telos EVM. The partnership lays the groundwork and infrastructure for future DeFi moves from Telos and the new EVM. “At Telos, we’re extremely excited to offer our services to users of SushiSwap,” said Justin Giudici, Telos Foundation CPO. “Traders, no matter their expertise, should be able to trade as quickly and efficiently as they like without the fear of front running. We’re looking forward to seeing how users react, and how they will make use of the new features that we’ve included within EVM. Additionally, with Anyswap’s support, our community can use one of the most renowned bridges around. We hope users on both sides are pleased with the partnerships and see the expanding value of Telos’ network. We plan to partner with other groups in the coming months, but are thrilled to kick things off with two of the top crypto projects in the world.” SushiSwap in collaboration with Telos is expected to invest additional resources into the partnership in the form of incentives programs, and the Sushi NFT marketplace, ShoryuNFT, will add support to the EVM in the future. Users looking to get started right away can do so by adding Telos EVM to Metamask, bridging assets with Anyswap, acquiring $TLOS, and trading on SushiSwap or by farming on the exchange. About Telos The Telos EVM is the most powerful and scalable Ethereum Smart Contract platform available today built to power Web 3.0. Telos features a robust, third-generation, ESG compliant evolutionary blockchain governance system inclusive of smart contracts, advanced voting features, flexible and user-friendly fee models.
