HONG KONG, Aug. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Global Engine Group Holding Limited (Nasdaq: GLE) (the “Company” or “GLE”), a Hong Kong-headquartered integrated solutions provider in information communication technologies (“ICT”), today announced that it has entered into a Strategic Collaboration Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Angkasa-X Holdings Corp. ("Angkasa-X") to jointly advance the development of a "Space-to-AI" digital infrastructure platform in Sarawak, Malaysia.
Following the parties’ non-binding memorandum of understanding entered into in May 2026, the Agreement represents a significant milestone in GLE’s strategic evolution, accelerating the Company’s expansion beyond traditional ICT infrastructure capabilities into next-generation digital infrastructure combining artificial intelligence (“AI”), edge computing, and space-based data capabilities.
Advancing GLE’s “AI + Edge + Space” Strategy into Real-World Deployment
The collaboration will support the Sarawak “Space-to-AI Edge PoC” project, including Angkasa-X’s planned ground-stations linked to an Edge Datacenter in Sarawak, with project operations involving the Sarawak Digital Economy Corporation (“SDEC”) team.
The objective of the project is to demonstrate a fully integrated “Space‑to‑AI” infrastructure whereby raw satellite data from Angkasa‑X and partners’ satellites is downloaded directly into ground-stations in Sarawak, stored and processed in the Sarawak‑based Edge Datacenter with joint operations involving SDEC and its partner ecosystems.
Under the Agreement, Angkasa‑X will construct, operate and maintain the Sarawak-based Ground-station and Edge Datacenter. GLE will provide datacenter design and operational consulting for the Sarawak-based Edge Datacenter and collaborate with SDEC on joint operations and maintenance of the Sarawak Edge Datacenter. The Parties will jointly conduct feasibility studies and define proof of concept (“PoC”) success criteria within 180 days of the effective date of the Agreement. The PoC is targeted for completion in October 2027.
Building a Regional Space-to-AI Infrastructure Ecosystem in ASEAN
Dato’ Dr. SEAH Kok Wah, CEO and Chairman of Angkasa-X commented, “We believe the convergence of space technology, artificial intelligence and edge computing will define the next generation of digital infrastructure. This collaboration with GLE represents a significant step toward establishing Sarawak as a strategic Space-to-AI hub for ASEAN. By enabling satellite data to be received, processed and analyzed locally, we can significantly reduce latency, enhance data sovereignty and create a trusted AI-data ecosystem capable of supporting mission-critical applications across agriculture, natural resources, maritime security, carbon intelligence and disaster resilience. This project aligns with Angkasa-X’s long-term strategy of developing the equatorial space highway and delivering Satellite-as-a-Service solutions that convert space-based data into economic value.”
GLE Positioned to Capture Emerging Opportunities in AI Infrastructure and Space Computing
Mr. Andrew Lee Yat Lung, CEO and Chairman of the Company stated, “Our strategic collaboration with Angkasa-X represents a significant milestone in GLE’s next-generation digital infrastructure strategy. By combining GLE’s expertise in datacentre design and infrastructure operations with Angkasa‑X’s satellite capabilities creates a unique Space‑to‑AI platform. This project will validate how edge processing and secure data replication can unlock new services across key sectors like agriculture and logistics.
GLE remains committed to expanding its technology capabilities through innovation, strategic partnerships, and ecosystem development. We believe our investment in high-growth technology areas will strengthen our competitive positioning and create long-term value for our shareholders.”
