From working with talents in the creative community at
Cyberport, we understand how important it is to provide
funding to innovators to help them to take the first step to push
their creative ideas. That is why Cyberport Creative Micro Fund
(CCMF) provides seed funding of HK$100,000 for creative
individuals to turn their ideas into potential businesses or
prototypes. This year, we provided 54 CCMF grants, about one
for every ten applications. The number of applications reached
a record high. To date, we have empowered 162 new projects
through the CCMF. In addition to the local programme, the
Cross-Border Programme of CCMF helps applicants to gain
Mainland China experience and promotes cross-culture
innovative ideas. Through the year, there were some 64
applications for the cross-border programme with 21 grants
awarded.
One visible result of these efforts is Cyberport’s emergence as
a first-rate technology-training and tech talent-grooming
brand. Technology training can help develop an innovative
generation who are strong in both technical competence and
execution on top of their creativity. They will grow Hong Kong
to be an even more creative, unique and entrepreneurial city.
Looking ahead
This first giant leap of inspiring the next generation driven by
Cyberport Youth is one with long-range vision. Nurturing more
technology talents is clearly a top priority for the sustainable
development of a more vibrant tech community. There is a
need for more programmers, developers, and digital innovators
to feed into the entrepreneurial drive that is such an important
part of Hong Kong. Through its first leap of inspiring the next
generation, Cyberport is positioned at the heart of Hong Kong’s
entrepreneurial drive.
Cyberport is planting seeds now to inspire a new generation of
technology professionals who will feed both into Cyberport’s
ecosystem and Hong Kong’s own culture of innovation.
