[HONG KONG, June 27, 2025] – ALOHA Asia Pacific Limited (“ALOHA”), a rising leader in hotel management across the Asia-Pacific region, and Next Technology Holding Inc. (NASDAQ: NXTT), a publicly-traded technology innovator, today announced a strategic development agreement valued at USD 4.22 million. The partnership will co-create the “NEXT SMS System” – a revolutionary AI + SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) integrated hotel monitoring and management platform, set to redefine the operational standards and guest security experience for luxury hospitality.
Under the agreement, Next Technology will leverage its profound expertise in artificial intelligence and cloud computing to build a bespoke platform for ALOHA’s portfolio of 20 hotels and resorts across Asia Pacific. More than a conventional technology procurement, this deep, integrated partnership marks a pivotal step for ALOHA in advancing the intelligent and digital transformation of the hospitality industry.

Empowering Intelligent Hospitality: The Core Innovations of the NEXT SMS System
The NEXT SMS System is designed to be a comprehensive, intelligent, and highly scalable solution, with key innovations including:
- AI-Powered Real-Time Insights: The system will deploy advanced AI models, including deep learning-based facial recognition (with ≥98% accuracy in low-light/backlit environments), CNN behavior analysis, and LSTM risk prediction algorithms. This enables automated anomaly detection, intelligent alarm classification, and push notifications, mitigating potential security risks before they escalate.
- Edge-Cloud Collaborative Architecture: The deployment of Edge AI Gateways at each property enables localized, real-time AI inference (with latency ≤100ms), significantly reducing cloud bandwidth consumption (≥40%) and overall system latency (≥60%), ensuring uninterrupted service excellence even in unstable network conditions.
- Privacy-Centric Federated Learning: Utilizing cutting-edge federated learning technology, raw video data remains onsite at each hotel, never uploaded to the cloud. By securely aggregating model parameters from each property for collaborative training, the system guarantees absolute guest data privacy (in compliance with Hong Kong PDPO) while continuously enhancing the accuracy and generalization of AI models.
- SaaS Multi-Tenant Centralized Management: A unified cloud platform allows ALOHA’s headquarters to efficiently manage all 20 properties while ensuring complete data isolation and independent configuration for each hotel. The platform features Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and an intelligent data dashboard, empowering management with precise, data-driven decision-making.
