It’s always valuable to bring people in e-commerce together to share what’s happening in the industry and learn from each other.

Together with DSers, we welcomed e-commerce sellers from across the US, Australia and Europe to Ant A Space for a closer look at the ecosystem behind global commerce.

From AliExpress, Alibaba.com and 1688 Global to WorldFirst, the afternoon sparked conversations around sourcing, digital retail, AI and cross-border payments, bringing different perspectives together on the opportunities and challenges of growing an e-commerce business internationally.

Just as valuable were the conversations between sessions, where sellers could exchange experiences, share ideas and learn from others navigating different markets.

A big thank you to DSers and everyone who joined us for an insightful afternoon!

From a full day on the show floor to a night of good food, music, and even better company.

Last night, we took a break from the booths and brought the Canton Fair crowd together for an evening of our own.

The room was full of familiar faces and new ones. Customers, partners, creators, and businesses from different markets, all sharing stories, making new connections, and enjoying a well-earned night off from the busy fair floor.

There’s something special about seeing the people behind the businesses we work with come together in one room. Conversations that started at the booth carried into the night, and a few new introductions turned into stories, laughs, and plans for what comes next.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us and made the night what it was.

And just like that, another Canton Fair memory worth keeping. 🥂

His father is known as the Jackie Chan of fengshui. When the son took over, he refused to be the next famous master and rebuilt the firm as a professional practice instead. Some of the longest-serving staff walked out in year one.

In this episode, a second-generation fengshui master explains how he's modernizing a traditional trade, why young clients want a second opinion, and what it takes to advise across Chinese, Indian and Japanese traditions.

He had to borrow from family to pay his factory.

Allen Fu runs Cheekyglo, a top 50 TikTok brand to watch.
His edge is sourcing direct from China's manufacturing belt.
But many of those factories can't accept US dollars.

For two years, a big order meant splitting the payment into pieces over a week.
Then waiting days for it to clear, while the supplier asked where the money was.

Now he converts AUD to Chinese yuan in a couple of clicks, and the factory is paid within 24 hours.

His father drove buses for a living. Today he runs a bus and coach company, and he drove the routes himself before managing them — which changed how he treats his drivers.

In this episode, a second-generation operator explains what clients calling every minute taught him about stress, why he refuses to pass it down to drivers, and what it took to get a Singapore coach licensed to cross into Malaysia.

Some connections go beyond business. Others take you behind doors not everyone gets to walk through. ⚽🏆

A few weeks after the Bosses United Congress Cup, WorldFirst was back with the community. This time, across the border in Johor, Malaysia!

What started as a shared passion for football has grown into something more — a community of business owners building meaningful connections beyond the pitch.

Our first stop was Lotus Desaru Beach Resort & Spa, where YBh Tan Sri Datuk R. Doraisingam Pillai, Group Chief Executive Officer of Lotus Group, welcomed the group for a private resort tour and lunch.

Next, we headed to JDT Stadium for an exclusive behind-the-scenes experience, hosted by Tunku Ismail Ibni Sultan Ibrahim, alongside Kevin Ramalingam, Commercial Director of Johor Darul Ta'zim FC.

The day ended over dinner, where conversations continued and connections grew stronger.

But what made this trip special wasn't just the places we visited. It was the people we experienced them with.

At WorldFirst, our relationship with Bosses United Singapore goes beyond a single event. It's about creating opportunities for business owners to connect, exchange perspectives and gain access to experiences that extend beyond the boardroom.

The Congress Cup may have brought us together. But what happens beyond the pitch is where the real connections begin.

And this is only the beginning. Looking forward to more days like this with Bosses United!

One S$50 quote after a night out gave him the idea for a S$38 valet service. Then his love of football matches abroad became a second business.

In this episode, Gary explains how a low-margin, high-volume valet service works on word of mouth, what it takes to get Singaporeans into sold-out matches, and why trust is the only product in travel.

at IFA 2026 in Berlin.

A wide projector line, most of it deliberately cost-effective, running Android, Smart OS and Google TV OS. Some models are built for the living room, some for taking outside.

We asked how WorldFirst has helped the business grow internationally. The answer was the unglamorous part that decides whether growth works: receiving different currencies from all around the world, in one place.

Eine breite Projektor-Linie, größtenteils bewusst kosteneffizient, mit Android, Smart OS und Google TV OS. Einige Modelle für das Wohnzimmer, manche für draußen.

Wir fragten, wie WorldFirst dem Unternehmen beim internationalen Wachstum hilft. Die Antwort war der unscheinbare Teil, der über den Erfolg entscheidet: Währungen aus aller Welt zentral an einem Ort empfangen.
