SM and DOST Drive Sustainability and Innovation at SUSTEX 2025

Marco Polo Demo 9/14/2025 10:49:00 AM

SM Prime Holdings, Inc., through SM Supermalls, together with the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) and ARISE Private Sector Alliance for Disaster Resilient Societies, launched the first-ever SM Sustainability Expo (SUSTEX 2025) at the SMX Convention Center Aura in Taguig.

The two-day event, themed “Innovation for Environmental Stewardship,” brought together over 50 exhibitors, government agency leaders, the private sector, the international community and sustainability advocates to showcase cutting-edge solutions that advance a greener and more resilient future.

SM Prime Executive Committee Chairman Hans T. Sy and DOST Secretary Renato Solidum seal their commitment to environmental stewardship at the launch of the first-ever SM Sustainability Expo.

SM and DOST Leaders strike the Beat of Sustainability and lead the ceremonial Solidrum and angklung performance, symbolizing harmony and collective action at the inaugural Sustainability Expo 2025.

Symbolic Opening: “Beat of Sustainability”

The Expo opened with the ceremonial “Beat of Sustainability,” led by DOST Secretary Renato Solidum and SM Prime Executive Committee Chairman Hans T. Sy, who together struck the Solidrum—a bamboo drum shell developed by the DOST – Forest Products Research and Development Institute (FPRDI).

They were joined by SM Supermalls President Steven Tan, SM Prime Vice President Jessica Sy-Bell, SM Supermalls Vice President Engr. Liza Silerio, and other dignitaries, who played the angklung, a UNESCO-recognized bamboo instrument. The performance symbolized harmony and collective action in advancing sustainability.

Leadership Perspectives

In his opening remarks, Hans T. Sy emphasized that sustainability lies at the heart of SM’s business and highlighted the importance of partnerships—“Public-private partnerships such as this show how science and business can unite to address some of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time. We encourage more of this as the private sector can provide support to projects by local scientists.”

Secretary Solidum echoed this view, noting that SUSTEX demonstrates how innovation and science can strengthen national resilience and drive a circular economy, as championed by similar DOST efforts.

“Through OneDOST4U: Solutions and Opportunities for All, we ensure that the science, technologies and innovations we develop are not just theories in journals or prototypes in laboratories—they are real solutions, accessible to businesses, communities, and every Filipino. This is also what we mean by Agham na Ramdam—science that is not distant; science that is felt, lived, and experienced by people in their everyday lives,” Solidum shared.

“My call is simple: enough talk. We’ve had summits, forums, declarations that fill up shelves and inboxes. What we need now is proof. Businesses must set their sights on real, tangible goals—not pretty brochures, not slogans, but numbers you can measure, promises you can check.”

Mr. Hans Sy and Ms. Jessica Sy-Bell and visit the DOST-AKO Packaging booth at SUSTEX 2025, underscoring their support for innovative and sustainable packaging solutions.

SUSTEX 2025 visitors engage with the FatHopes Energy booth, learning about innovative solutions for converting used cooking oil into sustainable biofuels.

Engaged discussions take place at the PARMS booth during SUSTEX 2025, as visitors learn about collaborative solutions for recycling and materials management.

Innovation Marketplace: Over 50 Exhibitors

SUSTEX 2025 featured more than 50 exhibitors showcasing technologies, initiatives, and products that reflect Filipino ingenuity and global collaboration. Notable exhibits included SM Prime and SM GUUN’s “Waste-Free Future” campaign, which highlighted their joint initiative with Japan’s GUUN Environmental Company on advanced waste management.

ARISE Philippines showcased efforts to advance disaster resilience through private sector collaboration. The DENR’s Loop Forward Program promoted circularity and large-scale waste reduction. The DOST-FPRDI centerpiece featured sustainable Lalang Pandan furniture, essential oils from Philippine plants, and bamboo musical instruments. Meanwhile, the DOST-CHRG presented innovations in electric vehicle technology.

A panel discussion at the Ignite Stage during SUSTEX 2025 gathers experts to share actionable insights on sustainability and innovation.

DOST leaders engage in a Fireside Chat at the Ignite Stage during SUSTEX 2025, sharing perspectives on science-led development and collaboration.

A Catalyst for Action

Running from August 29 to 30, the Expo featured interactive sessions, product showcases, and knowledge exchanges. The event reinforced SM’s continuing sustainability roadmap, including its Waste-Free Future campaign and commitment to achieve Net Zero by 2040.

“May this Expo be more than an event. May it be a catalyst for collaboration, a hub for practical solutions, and a reminder that business can be a force for good—when guided by purpose, discipline and partnership,” Sy concluded.

Celebrating 40 Super Years of Evolving with Every You, SM Supermalls—one of Southeast Asia’s largest mall developers—continuously evolving to lead the way in sustainable development by integrating green design, energy efficiency, disaster resilience, and environmental stewardship into its 88 malls in the Philippines, all while creating inclusive spaces that enrich communities, support climate action, and ensure a better, more sustainable future for generations of Filipino shoppers.

Radiant Photo 2.1 Shines Brighter: Faster, Smarter, and More Natural by Design

Marco Polo Demo 9/13/2025 08:58:00 PM

Radiant Imaging Labs continues to raise the bar for intelligent photo editing with the release of Radiant Photo 2.1, the latest version of its AI-powered photo enhancement software. The new update is designed to make every photo look naturally stunning—without the need for complex editing or artificial elements.

For photographers, content creators, and visual storytellers, Radiant Photo 2.1 offers one thing above all: speed and simplicity. With improved performance, cleaner controls, and a more user-friendly interface, it’s now easier than ever to achieve professional-grade edits with minimal effort.

Natural Photos Made Easy

The core goal of Radiant Photo 2.1 is simple—deliver natural-looking results faster. Instead of generating fake skies or adding digital effects, the software focuses on maximizing the pixels you actually captured. Its assistive AI enhances exposure, color, and tone in a way that feels realistic and true to life.

This philosophy is what Radiant calls “pixel integrity”—helping users bring out the best in their photos without altering their authenticity.

Smarter Tools, Smoother Experience

Among the highlights of Radiant 2.1 is its new Zone-Based Black & White tool, which allows users to convert images to monochrome with impressive control. Unlike traditional B&W tools limited to a few color targets, Radiant uses a zone-based system with featherable ranges. This means smoother transitions, halo-free edges, and a natural artistic look.

There’s even a Partial Color option, allowing one or more hues to remain for creative effects—perfect for adding subtle drama or emotion to an image.

Bring Your Own Style

Another exciting addition is the ability to import third-party LUTs directly into the “My Looks” panel. Whether you’re going for a cinematic film look, vintage tone, or modern neon vibe, Radiant Photo 2.1 supports common LUT formats like .cube.

Users can now apply, compare, and adjust creative grades quickly using keyboard shortcuts—making editing both faster and more personal.

New Features at a Glance

Radiant Photo 2.1 isn’t just a minor upgrade—it’s a quality overhaul with over 80 performance and polish improvements. Here are some of the standout features:

Zone-Based Black & White tool with partial color control
Custom LUT support for personalized looks and film styles
Top-Bar “Uber” Sliders for one-move fine-tuning of tone and color
EXIF Viewer for quick access to camera details like aperture, ISO, and shutter speed
Smarter Noise Reduction that automatically detects and applies the best settings
Keyboard Navigation and Crop Shortcuts for more efficient editing
Non-destructive continuity, including “Open Recent” and “Reopen Last Session” options
Apple Photos and Lightroom integration, now faster and smoother than ever

Faster, Friendlier, and More Efficient

The update focuses on performance and accessibility. Radiant 2.1’s new Develop and Color Grade sliders allow for precise adjustments with just a single move. Whether you’re brightening a portrait or adding color depth to a landscape, these global controls make fine-tuning easier and more intuitive.

Meanwhile, the noise reduction system has been enhanced with a “Detailed Scan” mode that intelligently selects the best method for each photo—ensuring clarity without over-smoothing textures.

And for those who value workflow continuity, Radiant now remembers your last session and recently opened files, so you can pick up exactly where you left off.

Plug-Ins and Compatibility

Radiant Photo 2.1 continues to play well with other software, offering seamless integration with Apple Photos, Lightroom, and Photoshop. The Apple Photos workflow now includes a simple round-trip editing process that keeps originals safe while giving users the option to revert anytime.

The Lightroom plug-in is also faster to load and can now “keep running,” allowing multiple edits without relaunching. A new headless batch export option helps photographers process large sets efficiently.

Fresh Looks for Every Style

Radiant’s Marketplace is also expanding, introducing new creative packs that cater to diverse editing needs.

Newborn & Baby Collection – tuned for soft, delicate tones and natural skin textures.

Neo Tokyo Tones – urban-inspired looks perfect for cityscapes, neon nights, and street photography.

Each pack is fully compatible with Radiant’s new workflow system, offering easy scene detection and seamless integration.

Built on Ethics and Authenticity

Radiant Photo remains firm on its ethical stance: it enhances real images, not artificial creations. The brand emphasizes assistive, not generative AI, maintaining the authenticity of every photo.

All enhancements happen on-device, ensuring privacy and quick processing without sending data to the cloud.

For Creators Who Value Craft

Radiant Photo 2.1 isn’t about overwhelming users with more sliders or filters—it’s about refining the craft of photo editing. With its intelligent detection, clean user interface, and tasteful presets, the software helps creators move faster while staying true to their artistic vision.

Whether you’re a professional photographer perfecting your final shots or a hobbyist fine-tuning vacation memories, Radiant Photo 2.1 delivers clarity, color, and creativity—all with ease and trust.

Radiant Photo 2.1 is expected to roll out soon through the Radiant Manager app, with ongoing updates and community support available at Radiant’s official channels.

Because when it comes to editing photos, natural never goes out of style—and with Radiant Photo 2.1, it just got a lot easier to achieve.

For the Gamers: Chill + Play at the Game Park

If your squad is equal parts foodie and gamer, the East Wing Foodcourt + Game Park is your sweet spot. After fiery Thai plates from Thaiwadee, ramen bowls from Buchiton, or K-cravings from Seoul Yummy, head to the Game Park to unwind with billiards, darts, or karaoke.

And yes, other Food court staples also join the party: Sizzling Plate, Dingers, TEXMEX, Hey Fried Rice, Lechon Belly Kitchen, Potato Corner, Kohi Manju, Barcada and more.
