report on behalf of the SVOM team:
During the commissioning phase, SVOM/GRM detected GRB 250101B at 2025-01-01T23:14:12 UT (T0), which was also observed by Fermi/GBM (Fermi GBM Team, GCN 38766).
With the event-by-event data downloaded through the X-band ground station, the GRM light curve shows that this burst consists of two main pulses with a T90 of 5.27 +/-1.24 s.
This burst is located (from Fermi/GBM) at about 96.02 degrees from the SVOM optical axis, and outside the ECLAIRs field of view.

The Space Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) is a China-France joint mission led by the Chinese National Space Administration (CNSA), French Space Agency (CNES), and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), which is dedicated to observing gamma-ray bursts and other transient phenomena in the energetic universe. GRM is developed by the Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) of CAS.
