On July 2 at Shangri-La Plaza, changemakers gathered for Impact Happy Hours, a community event co-hosted by Villgro Philippines, xchange, and Ashoka Philippines. The evening featured the Good Start Challenge, which will support and fund bold ideas improving parental and caregiver wellbeing. Social entrepreneurs shared local solutions from human milk banks to digital mom communities. Applications for the challenge are open until September 17, with funding of up to €200,000. Learn more at goodstart.challenges.org.
MANDALUYONG CITY, Manila – Changemakers from various backgrounds and sectors gathered at Impact Happy Hours last July 2, at Refinery, Shangri-La Plaza Mall. The event has been running since 2017 and has been a community space for individuals and organizations interested in social impact to connect and collaborate. Impact Happy Hours’ main organizers are entrepreneur support organizations Villgro Philippines, xchange, and Ashoka Philippines, but the event has also been co-hosted with different partner organizations who have designed several ways to facilitate connections between attendees. The featured partner of last night’s event was the Good Start Challenge.
Attendees of Impact Happy Hours were invited to reflect on modern parenting, wellbeing, and caregiving within the family. “How difficult is it to get on a crowded city bus with a baby—and how many other challenges do parents face in daily life? We need to ask: can we redesign systems, services, and infrastructures for the wellbeing of parents and caregivers?” said Kathy Nothstine from Challenge Works, one of the implementing partners of the Good Start Challenge.
“We’re excited about the huge opportunities in the Philippines—especially with the growing digital economy, the rise of technology and innovation, and the potential to tap into indigenous solutions that can create more sustainable, lasting impact. At the same time, we are aware of the complex challenges Filipino parents face—from the increasing risks of climate-related disasters to high rates of teenage pregnancy—issues that disproportionately affect women and families in vulnerable communities,” Kathy added, highlighting why the Philippines is one of the eligible countries for the challenge.
The Good Start Challenge will support up to 22 finalists globally to develop their solution with €50,000 in funding and a package of non-financial support. Organizations that are addressing the wellbeing of caregivers from pregnancy and the first years of parenthood, are meeting the needs of underserved and marginalized communities, and have demonstrated effectiveness and are ready to take the next steps towards scaling are invited to apply.
At the end, up to six winners will receive €200,000 and the opportunity to showcase in front of prospective funders and partners. Entries are now open from 22 May 2025 to 17 September 2025, 1pm (UTC). Full details are available at https://goodstart.challenges.org/
The Good Start Challenge was made possible by the Van Leer Foundation, FEMSA Foundation, Fundação Maria Cecilia Souto Vidigal, LEGO Foundation and Challenge Works.
The opening remarks were followed by a panel of three social entrepreneurs, namely Nadine Angelica Gadia Casiño (ALIMA Mother Support Center), JM Dioso (Project Payatas PH), and MK Bertulfo (FH Moms) who shared their real stories and insights of systems-level solutions that center parental wellbeing.
“Aside from the lack of opportunities and education, one thing that I wanted to emphasize is that a lot of moms already have access to equipment and the experience but they lack the confidence,” said MK Bertulfo of FH Moms, speaking on the barriers women face.
Adding to the discussion on maternal challenges and care systems, Nadine Angelica Gadia Casiño of ALIMA Mother Support Center shared, “There are daycare centers, there are schools, but where are the spaces for moms?”
“We partnered with local government units to establish the first-ever city human milk bank and lactation support center—not just a pasteurizing facility, but a space where mothers receive skilled, individualized breastfeeding support… If we can create more breastfeeding clinics and mother support centers, then mothers will know where to go and I think collaboration is key for us to make that happen.”
The panelists’ stories and perspectives offered a glimpse into what’s possible when community-led solutions are given the support to grow. These served as a call to action for entrepreneurs with bold ideas to join the Good Start Challenge and scale their impact for parents and caregivers who need it most.

Bitcoin hits $118,310 as institutional ETF demand, pro-Trump crypto policies, and on-chain data point to a bullish trend. Altcoins surge. Can BTC hit $133K next?
Bitcoin (BTC) has hit a fresh all-time high of $118,310, surging 6.1% on Friday amid an avalanche of institutional interest, strong ETF inflows, and renewed optimism driven by U.S. President Donald Trump’s crypto-friendly policies.
Institutional Demand Fuels Bitcoin Rally
Bitcoin’s latest surge marks its third consecutive weekly gain, supported by growing enthusiasm from major asset managers and corporate treasuries. Spot Bitcoin ETFs in the U.S. witnessed $1.18 billion in net inflows this week alone, according to SoSoValue.
- BlackRock’s IBIT led the inflow surge with $448.5 million
- Fidelity’s FBTC and Bitwise’s BITB followed closely behind
- Total daily trading volume across the 12 Bitcoin ETFs soared to $6.3 billion, the highest since May
These numbers underscore the rising appetite among institutional investors to add Bitcoin to both treasury portfolios and ETF holdings.
The trend accelerated after President Trump’s administration signaled support for digital assets, including the approval of a strategic Bitcoin reserve earlier this year.
Adding to the momentum, Trump Media & Technology Group (NASDAQ: DJT) has filed applications for three crypto-related ETFs, including a forthcoming “Crypto Blue Chip ETF” set to launch later this year.
Crypto Week and Pro-Crypto Legislation on the Horizon
Investors now turn their attention to “Crypto Week” beginning July 14, when U.S. lawmakers are expected to push forward at least three major bills regulating digital assets.
A favorable legislative outcome could further legitimize the market and invite more institutional players.
Altcoins Join the Rally
Bitcoin’s rally is pulling the broader market upward:
- Ethereum (ETH) jumped 8.7% to $3,025
-
XRP rose 6.07% to $2.60
-
Cardano (ADA) surged 13.93% to $0.720
-
Solana (SOL) added 4.11% to $164.88
-
Polygon (MATIC) climbed 9%
-
Meme tokens like Dogecoin and $TRUMP rose 12% and 11%, respectively
Bullish Technical Indicators & On-Chain Data
Technical indicators suggest Bitcoin’s breakout is more than just a short-term rally:
- 10x Research’s trend model turned bullish on June 29
-
Markus Thielen of 10x Research projects BTC could reach $133,000 by September, citing bullish momentum and underexposed option traders
-
RSI shows a bullish setup below overbought levels, allowing room for further upside
-
On-chain metrics from CryptoQuant show exchange inflows have fallen to 3,200 BTC/day, the lowest since 2015, indicating low sell pressure and high investor confidence
Meanwhile, wallet clusters between $108,795 and $110,624, representing nearly half a million BTC, form a strong support wall, enhancing Bitcoin’s stability near current prices.
Risks: Divergence & Fibonacci Levels
Despite the bullish environment, Relative Strength Index (RSI) divergence signals a need for caution.
RSI is showing lower highs while price makes higher highs, a classic sign of weakening momentum. However, as RSI remains below the overheated zone, the correction risk appears moderate.
Fibonacci trend extensions show next key resistance levels at:
- $121,274 (0.618 level)
-
$135,576 (1.0 extension level)
-
$146,400 (based on chart breakout projection)
Support to watch includes $109,632, $107,000, and $100,000. Falling below these levels could invite a deeper correction, possibly echoing May’s dip to $98,000.
Institutional Accumulation Continues
Trading activity on Coinbase is dwindling, implying that large buyers are accumulating through spot ETFs rather than centralized exchanges.
This institutional behavior reinforces long-term bullish sentiment, especially as firms like Korea’s K Wave Media reportedly acquired 88 BTC as part of a $1 billion crypto treasury strategy.
Conclusion: Will Bitcoin Maintain the Momentum?
Bitcoin is currently up 1.47% over the last 30 days, holding well above its early April low and performing comparably to tech giants like Nvidia and Microsoft.
The combination of ETF demand, favorable U.S. policy, low sell pressure, and technical confirmation suggests that this rally may have further room to grow.
Still, traders should be alert to key resistance zones and potential corrections. The next few weeks, especially around Crypto Week and July 15’s CPI data, could be decisive in shaping Bitcoin’s path toward $133K or beyond.

Office Chatani, Inc. (CEO: Masayuki Chatani) has announced the results of a survey they conducted on “intrapreneurs” in large companies, targeting those with over 1,000 employees. These results shed light on the actual state of business creation personnel in these companies.
Background
The world is currently in what has been called the VUCA era, where the business world is rapidly changing and uncertainty is growing. As the market and customers’ needs change by the second, companies are expected to respond to these needs with flexibility and innovation. Under these circumstances, business creation is an essential initiative to maintain and strengthen a company’s competitive position. On the other hand, due to the scale of resources and complexity of their decision-making process, managers cannot focus solely on the business environment, but must also face challenges such as rigid internal organization and a risk-averse culture while striving to generate new value. Among them, “intrapreneurs,” or one who creates new businesses while working within an organization, have been attracting attention. Large companies have a strong desire for individuals willing to go against the existing business structure and culture and generate new value within the company. To that end, Office Chatani, Inc. conducted a survey targeting managers within large companies regarding intrapreneurship in such companies.
Survey summary
– Among companies with over 1,000 employees, over half of them have personnel who are considered “intrapreneurs”
– The largest age group for “intrapreneurs” is 40-49
– The top three common skills among intrapreneurs are 1. Creativity and Imagination, 2. Business Strategy Acumen, and 3. Autonomy and Independent Action
– Many companies are working on “supporting internal and external personal networking” for the purpose of developing intrapreneurs
– The most important environmental factor for successful intrapreneurship is considered to be “a corporate culture that is tolerant of new challenges”
– Among companies indicating that they did not have any “intrapreneurs,” over 70% were not taking initiatives to cultivate intrapreneurship in their company
– Among companies without “intrapreneurs,” many named “providing training and educational opportunities for new business” as an initiative for cultivating intrapreneurship
– Among companies without “intrapreneurs,” the top three challenges or obstacles for cultivating intrapreneurship were said to be 1. “Lack of a role model in the company”, 2. “Lack of internal resources (time, budget, personnel)”, and 3. “Lack of a system or culture to evaluate challenges.”
Survey overview
Period: April 4-15, 2025
Method: Online survey
Target: Managers at companies with over 1,000 employees (men and women from 20s to 60s)
Total surveyed: 107 people
Monitored by: RC Research Data
This article is a continuation of Part 1.

- The most important environmental factor for successful intrapreneurship is considered to be “a corporate culture that is tolerant of new challenges”
Companies who indicated the presence of intrapreneurs at their company were then asked “What is the most important factor for the success of intrapreneurs at your company?”, to which 19.4% said “A corporate culture that is tolerant of new challenges.” In second place, “Support and understanding from management” and “An evaluation and reward system to encourage new challenges” were tied at 17.5%. Based on these results, it was found that many managers consider “a corporate culture that is tolerant of new challenges” to be the most important factor for the success of intrapreneurs.
Among companies indicating that they did not have any “intrapreneurs,” over 70% were not taking initiatives to cultivate intrapreneurship in their company
Next, managers that indicated there were no intrapreneurs at their company were asked “Are you taking initiatives to cultivate intrapreneurship in your company?” 48.0% of respondents answered “No, and we have no plans to in the future,” while 26.0% said “No, but we’d like to consider such initiatives in the future,” 14.0% said “We are working hard on such initiative and have a number of measures in place,” and finally 12.0% responded that “We have some measures in place but they are limited.” Based on these results, it has become clear that over 70% of companies without intrapreneurs are not currently taking initiatives to develop them.
Among companies without “intrapreneurs,” many named “providing training and educational opportunities for new business” as an initiative for cultivating intrapreneurship
Following this, companies that indicated a lack of intrapreneurs while also indicating they were taking initiatives to develop them were asked “What initiatives are you taking to develop intrapreneurs at your company?” The top answers were “Providing training and educational opportunities for new business” at 69.2%, “Promoting interdepartmental collaboration” at 53.9%, and “Reviewing corporate structure” at 46.2%. Based on these results, it can be said that “providing training and educational opportunities for new business” is the most common initiative for cultivating intrapreneurship.
Among companies without “intrapreneurs,” the top three challenges or obstacles for cultivating intrapreneurship were said to be 1. “Lack of a role model in the company”, 2. “Lack of internal resources (time, budget, personnel)”, and 3. “Lack of a system or culture to evaluate challenges.”
Finally, companies that indicated a lack of intrapreneurs while also indicating they were taking initiatives to develop them were asked “What are the challenges and obstacles for cultivating intrapreneurship in your company?” The top answers were “Lack of a role model in the company” with 53.9%, “Lack of internal resources (time, budget, personnel)” with 46.2%, and “Lack of a system or culture to evaluate challenges” with 38.5%. Based on these results, it has been found that many managers find the lack of a role model within the company to be a major challenge.
Summary
Based on this survey, it has been found that the majority of large companies with over 1,000 employees have intrapreneurs within their organization, and the most common age group for these intrapreneurs is 40-49. In addition, the most common shared traits and skills are “creativity and imagination,” “business strategy acumen,” and “autonomy and independent action,” while the most common initiative for companies with these human resources is “supporting internal and external personal networking” and “a corporate culture that is tolerant of new challenges” is considered to be the most important factor for cultivating intrapreneurship. When it comes to companies without intrapreneurs, it was found that over 70% are not taking initiatives to develop intrapreneurs within their company. As for the ones that are taking such initiatives, the most common is “providing training and educational opportunities for new business,” while the biggest hurdles for succeeding in this development are “a lack of a role model in the company”, “a lack of internal resources (time, budget, personnel)”, and “a lack of a system or culture to evaluate challenges.”
These results show that the most common shared traits and skills for intrapreneurs working within an organization are “creativity and imagination,” “business strategy acumen,” and “autonomy and independent action.” Office Chatani, Inc. offers “management support services” to develop “creative human resources.”

Kuala Lumpur, 11 July 2025 – Take your piping inspection career to the next level. Join PetroSync’s API 570 Training and get certified by trusted industry professionals.
In a world where industrial safety, asset integrity, and compliance are more crucial than ever, piping inspections have become a backbone of operational excellence. If you’re working in oil & gas, petrochemical, or power generation industries, chances are you’ve already felt the weight of ensuring your piping systems are reliable, efficient, and up to standard.
But what does it really take to inspect piping systems effectively? The answer lies in mastering API 570 – the globally recognized standard that could elevate not only your expertise but also your professional credibility.
Let’s walk through this essential guide and discover why API 570 is not just a technical certification – it’s a career-changing decision.
Why Piping Inspection Matters in Modern Industries
Imagine this: a small crack in a process pipe goes unnoticed. Over time, pressure builds up. Then one day, the line fails – resulting in downtime, environmental damage, or worse, putting lives at risk. This is not a theoretical scenario – it has happened, and it keeps happening.
Modern industries can no longer afford reactive maintenance. Instead, companies are shifting toward proactive strategies, where qualified piping inspectors play a critical role in preventing failures before they occur. That’s why API 570-certified professionals are in such high demand.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment for inspectors in the oil and gas sector is projected to remain stable, with skill-based certifications giving job seekers a competitive edge. Whether you’re in maintenance, inspection, engineering, or asset integrity, having the right knowledge framework is key.
Understanding the API 570 Standard
The API 570 standard was developed by the American Petroleum Institute to govern the in-service inspection, repair, alteration, and rerating of metallic piping systems. But API 570 is more than just codes and technical jargon – it’s a comprehensive guide to minimizing risk and maintaining piping integrity across the lifecycle of a plant.
API 570 covers:
Inspection intervals and planning
Piping classification and thickness evaluation
Corrosion rates and remaining life calculations
Risk-based inspection methodologies
Repair methods and welding requirements
If you’re responsible for ensuring safe operations or regulatory compliance, understanding API 570 is no longer optional – it’s essential.
From Theory to Practice: What You’ll Learn in an API 570 Training Course
You might be wondering, “Can’t I just study the codebook on my own?” Sure, but theory without context can only take you so far.
That’s where a structured API 570 training course becomes invaluable. In a comprehensive training program, you’ll not only learn how to interpret the standard, but also how to apply it in real-world scenarios.
Here’s what you can expect to gain:
A solid understanding of ASME and API references
Hands-on exercises in calculation methods
Real case studies from field inspections
Mock exams and practical tips for passing the certification
Confidence to make critical decisions in inspection roles
Training programs bridge the gap between code knowledge and day-to-day responsibilities. And in high-stakes industries, that gap makes all the difference.
Why Professionals Choose PetroSync for Their API 570 Journey
Thousands of engineers, inspectors, and plant operators across Asia and the Middle East trust PetroSync for their professional development – and with good reason.
PetroSync isn’t just another training provider. With a proven track record of high pass rates, expert instructors, and up-to-date course materials, PetroSync offers more than just knowledge – it offers transformation.
Here’s what sets PetroSync apart:
Expert Trainers with field and certification experience
Interactive Learning that goes beyond lectures
Real-World Focus to connect theory with practice
Global Certification Readiness aligned with API exam requirements
Professional Networking opportunities with peers and experts
By joining PetroSync’s API 570 course, you’re not just investing in a training – you’re investing in your future. Whether you’re aiming for a promotion, expanding your responsibilities, or shifting your career path toward inspection, the support you’ll gain from PetroSync will set you on the right course.
Ready to Take the Next Step?
If you’ve read this far, chances are you’re serious about leveling up your skills. So why wait? Make the decision to stand out in your field and become a certified API 570 professional.
Join PetroSync’s upcoming API 570 training course and take control of your career path – because the best time to grow is now.

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Seiring dengan peningkatan permintaan global terhadap makanan berkualiti tinggi, boleh dijejaki dan dihasilkan secara beretika, Malaysia kini muncul sebagai salah satu pasaran eksport paling berpotensi bagi produk pertanian Eropah—terutamanya dari Greece dan Latvia.
Disokong oleh kempen Kesatuan Eropah bertajuk “Produk Premium Eropah – Pengetahuan Lebih Baik, Pilihan Lebih Bijak,” inisiatif promosi terkini ini memberi tumpuan kepada memperkenalkan pengguna Malaysia kepada pilihan terbaik dari Eropah, merangkumi sajian istimewa Greece yang diperakui PDO hinggalah kepada produk tenusu, manisan dan snek dari Latvia.
Malaysia: Pasaran Strategik untuk Pengembangan Eropah
Landskap makanan yang semakin berkembang di Malaysia, infrastruktur perdagangan yang kukuh, dan kelas pertengahan yang semakin mementingkan kesihatan menjadikannya pasaran sasaran yang ideal untuk produk premium dari Eropah. Pengguna Malaysia kini lebih cenderung memilih makanan yang selamat, berkualiti tinggi, dan dihasilkan secara lestari—selari dengan nilai-nilai EU berkaitan keselamatan makanan, tanggungjawab alam sekitar dan kebajikan haiwan.
Dengan kedudukannya yang strategik di Asia Tenggara, Malaysia juga berfungsi sebagai hab edaran serantau, memberikan peluang kepada pengeluar Eropah bukan sahaja untuk menembusi pasaran tempatan tetapi juga untuk mengakses pasaran ASEAN yang lebih luas.
Permintaan yang Semakin Meningkat terhadap Keaslian dan Kualiti
Kelas pertengahan yang semakin berkembang di Malaysia serta minat terhadap kesihatan, asal-usul makanan dan kepelbagaian kulinari telah meningkatkan permintaan terhadap produk makanan import dari Eropah. Produk dari Greece dan Latvia—yang kebanyakannya dilindungi di bawah skim Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) oleh Kesatuan Eropah—berada dalam kedudukan ideal untuk memenuhi permintaan ini dengan menawarkan kualiti, keaslian dan kebolehpercayaan yang diiktiraf di peringkat global.
“Produk-produk ini bukan sekadar tentang rasa—ia mewakili tradisi, keterjejakkan dan kepercayaan,” kata jurucakap bagi skim kualiti Kesatuan Eropah. “Pengguna Malaysia semakin bijak dan berpengetahuan; mereka secara aktif mencari produk yang dihasilkan secara bertanggungjawab, kaya dengan nutrien, serta diperakui di peringkat global.”
Piawaian Eropah yang Membangkitkan Keyakinan
Semua produk yang dipromosikan di bawah kempen ini dihasilkan mengikut piawaian keselamatan dan kualiti makanan EU yang ketat. Strategi farm-to-fork Kesatuan Eropah memastikan penggunaan racun perosak yang minimum, tahap kebersihan yang tinggi dan keterjejakkan menyeluruh sepanjang rantaian pengeluaran.
Kebajikan haiwan turut menjadi keutamaan, dengan peraturan yang menjamin layanan beretika, persekitaran terbuka dan keadaan hidup yang sihat untuk ternakan. Pendekatan ini sejajar dengan permintaan pengguna Malaysia terhadap produk yang diperoleh secara bertanggungjawab, diperakui, dan mencerminkan kelestarian serta integriti.
Hubungan Perdagangan Kukuh Seiring Permintaan yang Meningkat
Hubungan perdagangan antara Kesatuan Eropah dan Malaysia terus kukuh, mendorong peningkatan import produk pertanian Eropah. Eksport Eropah ke Malaysia menunjukkan pertumbuhan konsisten, disokong oleh kepercayaan pengguna terhadap kualiti makanan Eropah. Kempen seperti “Produk Premium Eropah” turut memainkan peranan penting melalui sesi merasa, program pendidikan dan kerjasama perdagangan.
Sorotan utama termasuk:
- Produk PDO dari Greece seperti minyak zaitun extra virgin dari Kolymvari dan Messara, buah zaitun meja, saffron dari Kozani (Krokos Kozanis), kismis, keju keras (Graviera Kritis), serta getah mastiha mewakili warisan berabad-abad dan kualiti yang tiada tandingan.
- Produk tenusu Latvia terkenal dengan ketulenan, keselamatan dan amalan mesra haiwan, menjadikannya pilihan ideal untuk pengguna Malaysia yang mementingkan pemakanan dan etika.
- Latvia Coklat, buah-buahan manis dan snek dari Latvia pula menawarkan kelainan Eropah terhadap citarasa manisan, selaras dengan kepelbagaian selera pengguna Malaysia yang berani mencuba.
Sumbangan Greece: Keunggulan Mediterranean
Eksport makanan dari Greece membawa kekayaan rasa Mediterranean terus ke rumah-rumah rakyat Malaysia. Produk seperti buah zaitun PDO Konservolia Rovion dan Konservolia Stylidas menggunakan kaedah penapaian semula jadi tanpa bahan kimia, sekali gus mengekalkan ketulenan dan rasa asli Mediterranean.
Keju terkenal seperti Graviera Kritis serta saffron Krokos Kozanis pula menyerlah kerana nilai warisan, khasiat pemakanan, dan kepelbagaiannya dalam masakan tempatan mahupun antarabangsa.
Minyak zaitun extra virgin berkualiti tinggi—seperti dari Messara, Viannos dan Kolymvari—semakin diterima dalam kulinari tempatan. Sementara itu, Mastiha dari Chios, resin purba yang memiliki khasiat terapeutik, menawarkan inovasi unik dalam dunia kulinari dan kesihatan.
Inovasi dan Tradisi: Keunggulan Produk Tenusu dan Snek Latvia
Produk Latvia dalam bidang tenusu menggabungkan tradisi dan inovasi. —daripada snek keju bersalut coklat, krim masam bertekstur kaya, keju organik hingga minuman susu rendah gula—menarik perhatian pengguna Malaysia yang peka terhadap kesihatan.
Turut ditawarkan: keju salad, keju kotej, dan krim UHT yang sesuai untuk pelbagai gaya pemakanan. Manisan buah, kerepek tanpa MSG serta coklat dan biskut yang diperakui Rainforest Alliance melengkapkan rangkaian lestari yang memenuhi kehendak sektor runcit dan hospitaliti.
