Paphos Leads Cyprus Real Estate Market For International Buyers In March 2025

In March 2025, Paphos has once again claimed the top spot as the most sought-after region in the Cypriot real estate market for international buyers. With 204 property sales, Paphos has outperformed other regions, including Limassol, which recorded 172 sales, followed by Larnaca with 152, Nicosia with 54, and Famagusta with 25.

The allure of Paphos stems from a 38% increase in international demand compared to the previous year. This popularity is attributed to its competitive pricing when contrasted with Limassol, alongside its appealing lifestyle offerings, including world-class golf courses, a refurbished city center, cultural heritage, breathtaking landscapes, and convenient access to an international airport.

Higgsfield Secures $130 Million Series A Valuation At $1.3 Billion Amid Explosive Growth In AI Video Generation

Strategic Funding Drive

AI video generation pioneer Higgsfield has reinforced its market position by extending its earlier Series A round. Following an initial $50 million raised in September, the startup has generated an additional $80 million through stock sales, setting its total Series A investment at $130 million and reaching a valuation of $1.3 billion.

Rapid Growth And Market Adoption

Within months of launching its AI-powered tool for video creation and editing, Higgsfield has captured the attention of over 15 million users, accelerating its annual revenue run rate to $200 million—double the trajectory observed just two months ago. This swift expansion underscores the solution’s resonance with both individual creators and enterprise social media teams.

Positioning As A Business-Centric Tool

Under the leadership of Alex Mashrabov, former head of Generative AI at Snap, Higgsfield is transitioning from being seen as a casual content generator to a robust business tool. This shift is evidenced by the increasing adoption among professional social media marketers — a clear marker of the platform’s evolution towards strategic content creation.

Innovative Content And Industry Impact

While the platform has generated buzz with some provocative projects, such as the contentious ‘Island Holiday’ video, its broader application spans creative industries from fashion to cinematic storytelling. This diversity in content underscores the flexibility and commercial appeal of its technology.

Investor Confidence And Future Prospects

The latest financing round has attracted backing from eminent investors including Accel, AI Capital Partners, Menlo Ventures, and GFT Ventures. Their support not only reinforces the market potential of Higgsfield but also aligns the company with other tech heavyweights disrupting traditional content creation and distribution models.
