Advanced Container Technologies (OTC: ACTX) was featured in a recent episode of “Gamechangers LIVE.” The podcast series shines a spotlight on individuals who are gamechangers in their fields and shares perspective on their journeys, mindsets, struggles and successes in an effort to inspire and inform listeners. Doug Heldoorn, ACTX chairman and CEO, and Shannon Illingworth joined the broadcast, hosted by executive coach and speaker Sergio Tigera, to discuss the origins of Advanced Container Technologies and the ways it is working to revolutionize farming practices. “When I was speaking with Shannon – I’ve known him for 15 years – we were all in the same space. He was talking about growing these organic superfoods. It all flowed together, which was pretty cool,” Heldoorn said in the interview. “There was an opportunity to merge and get our brains together working toward a common goal of what’s missing in society right now. One [Grow Pod] will grow an acre of food with a third of the water it takes [for traditional farming] and less space, with no metals or toxins. Everybody right now is right on that bandwagon of doing things healthier and more responsible to the environment. We really think we’re on to something that’s going to be incredible.”

A South Korean container ship has returned from a trial voyage through the Arctic, testing an alternative route opened by melting sea ice as conflict in the Middle East disrupts global shipping. The PanStar Acro made the round trip to Europe in less time than the conventional route through the Suez Canal, officials said.

On a recent Friday night in a Bangkok dive bar, a group of young Myanmar exiles sang softly along to a mournful ballad played on an acoustic guitar. None among the crowd had any plans to leave, either for their homeland or home for bed. They fled war, a broken economy and forced conscription into a military that seized power in the 2021 coup. While their future in Thailand is uncertain, their ties to home are kept alive by the hard currency they send back each month to parents and siblings left...
Chinese President Xi Jinping has met Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi three times in the past three years. Indian pilgrims are back at Kailash, the Tibetan mountain sacred to Hindus and Buddhists. Air China has restarted flights to New Delhi. But can trust grow between two armies that meet only in a crisis? And why does the Pentagon now talk to the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) more easily than India’s army does? In September, Xi made his first visit to India in nearly seven years; Beijing...
