Annual Report 2014/15

Cyberport Partners: Leaping on global ambition

From our journey in the past years working with entrepreneurs,

we understand that once a company has secured its position in

the local market, many will want to venture into other overseas

markets. Hence, a global network like the one Cyberport has

built throughout the years across industries and backgrounds

can help them enormously. To facilitate the growth of these

start-ups further, we also fund their participation in renowned

accelerator programmes worldwide through our Cyberport

Accelerator Support Programme.

We also place equal emphasis on keeping abreast of the

industry’s trending topics and bringing them to Hong Kong. In

the last year, we have strengthened our efforts to support

innovative entrepreneurs, particularly in areas such as

wearable technology, financial technology and open data. To

this end, we have hosted one hundred tech events in the past

year with a dual purpose in mind. One is to enrich tech

knowledge amongst the industry and the other is to provide

quality events for our community at which they can network

and foster tighter partnerships.

With such a comprehensive one-stop platform that supports

every milestone of digital tech talent and entrepreneurs at

every step of their journey, Cyberport has grown into a lively

community that nurtures tech innovation and creativity. The

vibrancy, drive and energy are now visible throughout the

Cyberport campus. This matches our roles of developing more

tech-savvy youth and professionals, nurturing entrepreneurial

minds and their ideas, accelerating the growth of businesses

driven by technology and developing greater global networks.

All these efforts are part of a multi-year push to fulfill our vision.

We have committed HK$300 million since 2010 to further our

two strategic plans and we have started to bear fruits from the

energy, passion, time and effort we have invested through the

years. Although the frontiers Cyberport explored in the past

have evolved over time, the commitment in growing an open

and dynamic technology-based community that empowers the

growth of ideas, the development of partnerships and the spirit

of innovation is as solid as it can be.
