On the news front, Shopee recently announced a deepened collaboration with Meta to launch an Instagram affiliate program, a strategic move that expands the e-commerce platform's social commerce reach. This follows a Sensor Tower report identifying Sea Limited as the highest-volume digital advertiser across Southeast Asia in Q1, with regional digital ad spending projected to surpass $3 billion by year-end. These developments underscore Sea's aggressive push to capture growing online consumer demand through social media integration.

The partnership initiative builds on Sea's strong operational momentum after its Q1 earnings beat, which showed revenue of $7.097 billion (up 46.6% year-over-year) and Shopee GMV growth of 30%. The company has also been expanding its AI capabilities, testing a generative AI chatbot called Migoo in the US market and forming a dedicated AI investment team to identify new growth opportunities beyond e-commerce.
