Under the Radar: (SPECIALS) A reinvention of the PC, agentic AI, Vera Rubin in full production – highlights from Nvidia’s GTC Taipei

Remember the time when we would scour through magazines and newspaper articles to cut out photos and design ideas to paste on your scrapbooks for an art project? 

Well, we might not do that physically these days, but millions of us still do so digitally through a platform called Pinterest. And yes, that is the company that we’re going to talk to today. 

Founded in 2010, Pinterest is a visual search and discovery platform where people find inspiration, curate ideas and shop for products.

Unlike traditional social media of its time, the San Francisco headquartered company began as a digital pinboard and was focused on helping users find the inspiration they need to lead the life they love. 

This positions Pinterest as a high-intent platform where users arrive not just to browse, but with a purpose. Users sit closer to the moment of decision making, where inspiration can turn into action and commerce.

Today, Pinterest sees 1.5 billion pins saved every week, with over half of the users thinking of the platform as a place to shop.

In May 2026, the firm reported FY2026 Q1 revenue of US$1.008 billion, up 18 per cent on a yearly basis. Pinterest also saw its tenth consecutive quarter of double-digit user growth with its base of global monthly active users reaching 631 million, an 11 per cent increase over the previous year. 

But what is the firm’s assessment of its latest performance as major retailers and advertisers in the US grapple with tariffs?

Meanwhile, the firm continues to see revenue driven by the US and Canada even with a growing user base in Asia. So how far is Asia an undertapped market for the firm and what is the company doing to close the monetisation gap?

Also – the firm is also doubling down on AI-driven platform improvements, but what does this mean in more granular terms, and how will AI help the firm optimise advertising reach and consequently its top and bottom lines?

On Under the Radar, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to Martin Machinandiarena, Managing Director, Channel Sales, Pinterest.

The company that we’re going to talk about today has its beginnings traced back to 1984, when a then married couple from Stanford University helped build the foundation of the Internet by inventing the first-multi-protocol router that helped to link computer networks.

If Cisco comes to mind, yes, that is our guest for today. Of course, a lot has changed for Cisco in the decades since its founding, during which we saw a power struggle between investors and its original founders (that was back in the 1990s). 

Fast forward to today, Cisco is a worldwide technology leader who prides itself in securely connecting “everything to make anything possible”. 

The aim is to power an inclusive future for all, by helping customers reimagine their applications, power hybrid work, secure their enterprise and transform their infrastructure. Increasingly, the firm is also focused on helping customers harness the potential of generative AI safely.

On the business front, Cisco has also grown from strength to strength. For its third quarter ended April 25th, Cisco posted record revenue of US$$15.8 billion, up 12 per cent on the year. 

Net income on a generally accepted accounting principles (or GAAP) basis came in at US$3.4 billion, a 35 per cent increase on the year. Cisco attributed the performance to the relevance of its technology for connecting and securing AI. But what does the firm mean by that more specifically?

Meanwhile, the firm hosted its Cisco Live 2026 in June. At the event held in Las Vegas, the firm announced a slew of products to help customers modernise their technology capabilities and protect critical systems. 

Among them – a unified Cisco Cloud Control platform for humans and AI agents to run critical IT infrastructure together. But what are the key takeaways from the event?

Also – how is the firm anticipating future AI threats, especially with the development of Claude Mythos, which can independently find vulnerabilities in software and computer systems?

On Under the Radar, finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to Ben Dawson, President, Asia Pacific, Japan and Greater China, Cisco.

It is the time of the year where global investment firm Temasek releases its annual financial results.

To this end, the company reported a Net Portfolio Value of S$518 billion on a mark-to-market basis as at 31 March 2026, representing a doubling of its portfolio over the past decade. 

Long-term returns remained resilient, with the 20-year Total Shareholder Return at 6.8% and the 10-year TSR coming in at 7.1%. The five-year TSR stood at 4.6%, weighed down by headwinds in China’s capital markets from 2021 to 2024. 

Meanwhile, the one-year TSR was at 10.5%, with NPV rising by S$49 billion on the year thanks to the strong showing of Singapore-based Temasek Portfolio Companies and realised gains from key divestments, though the figure was tempered by the situation in the Middle East.

Beyond the present, the global investor announced a major restructuring in August 2025, where it set up three wholly owned entities called: (1) Temasek Singapore, (2) Temasek Global Investments and (3) Temasek Partnership Solutions to target three distinct portfolio segments to tackle macroeconomic changes in an increasingly uncertain world. The three entities came into effect in April 2026.

But how does the structural overhaul help Temasek sharpen differentiated strategies to achieve better outcomes? Where are the opportunities for the firm looking ahead?

In her fifth year covering the Temasek Review, finance presenter Chua Tian Tian headed down to Temasek’s office for this “On the Go” Special episode of Under the Radar, where she posed the questions to Png Chin Yee, Chief Financial Officer, Temasek International and President, Temasek Singapore.
