Global economic uncertainty impacted global venture capital investments in 2020/21. As market sentiment recovered towards the year end, it was time to ride on the global attention for the entrepreneurial trend to drive venture capital for start-ups, especially early-stage and growth-stage start-ups.

To enable start-ups to receive essential support to sustain growth, we continued to leverage the Cyberport Macro Fund and Cyberport Investors Network to bridge community companies to venture capital and generate deal flow. Amid the pandemic, we encouraged our community companies to make good use of public support funding such as the Anti-Epidemic Fund to enable sustainable growth with new impetus.
