JD.com, Inc., also known as Jingdong and formerly called 360buy, is a Chinese e-commerce company headquartered in Beijing.

Logistics is generally the detailed organization and implementation of a complex operation. In a general business sense, logistics is the management of the flow of things between the point of origin and the point of consumption in order to meet requirements of customers or corporations.

JD.com (NASDAQ: JD), one of China’s largest retailers, built its brand by cultivating an in-house logistics network that gives its services a sheen of timeliness and reliability. This made it stand out among China’s myriad of retailers, including Alibaba’s popular Taobao.com. Now, JD Logistics operates as a subsidiary that has taken on a life of its own—if all goes according to plan, it will be the fourth company in the JD network to have shares listed on a stock exchange, after JD.com itself, Dada Nexus, and JD Health.

Advertisers are reassessing the value of social media and their reliance on it. The spread of misinformation has grown to a serious concern, prompting them to seek out alternatives that could offer both rich mobile data as well as scale. Carousell, the Singapore-based online marketplace for secondhand goods, thinks it can fill the void. The newly formed Carousell Media Group is combining its different platforms, and the first-party data contained therein, managing director JJ Eastwood told KrASIA in a recent interview. The firm is so able to resolve concerns with a "one-stop ad solution."

Growth in Singapore is also spurring initiatives in other Asian countries such as Thailand and Japan, confirming its regional hub status.
