Partnership Spread
Tencent WeChat (China): WeChat Mini Program bookings in Guangzhou and Beijing (total 1.3B users); Tencent Maps next.
Uber (Middle East): Pilots in Abu Dhabi/Dubai/Riyadh; UAE expansion. Deal: 3 out of 15 cities are set up, at least 12 more to follow (Europe/Australia/NZ?)
Grab (SEA): Robotaxi integration in Singapore, SEA (200M+ users).
