China Environmental Resources Group Limited has entered into a non-legally binding memorandum of understanding with mainland technology firm 360 Digital Security to explore cooperation opportunities in artificial-intelligence-driven youth education.

Under the MOU, signed on 15 April 2026 and effective for three years, the partners will:

• Combine China Environmental Resources’ experience in educational scenarios and channel resources with 360 Digital Security’s strengths in AI infrastructure, intelligent-agent development and computing resources.

• Develop AI applications for training institutions, youth centres and primary and secondary schools, with 360 Digital Security providing development platforms, technical support and training to enable in-house application building.

• Jointly design comprehensive “AI + Youth Education” solutions covering teaching assistance, administrative management, student-growth assessment and market enrolment, aiming to create industry-wide replicable models.

• Launch pilot benchmark projects within China Environmental Resources’ education network and promote them under both parties’ brands, while exploring broader market expansion through combined sales channels.

360 Digital Security, majority-owned by Tianjin 360 Anfu Technology Co., is a leading Chinese internet and AI technology company affiliated with Shanghai-listed 360 Security Technology Inc. The announcement confirms that 360 Digital Security and its ultimate owners are independent of China Environmental Resources and its connected persons, as defined by Hong Kong listing rules.

China Environmental Resources’ core businesses include metal recycling, motor and accessories, car-park rental, money lending, securities trading and investments. The group also operates green-technology segments and a hotel-leasing unit in Nepal. Management views the AI education collaboration as a strategic move to diversify into next-generation technology sectors, enhance its presence in the expanding youth-education market and support national education priorities.

The MOU remains subject to the execution of definitive agreements; therefore, its provisions are not legally binding. Further announcements will be made in accordance with Hong Kong listing regulations. Shareholders and prospective investors are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the company’s securities.
