Vincent Ma, Chief Executive Officer of HSITPL, said the collaboration will help technology companies expand beyond their domestic markets by connecting them with expertise, partners and investment opportunities.

Under the agreement, the two sides will facilitate business establishment opportunities, access to entrepreneurship programmes, office space and support services, as well as connections with business partners and investors.

Cooperation will also include joint events, mentorship programmes and opportunities for technology companies to showcase their products and solutions.

HSITPL supports collaboration in research, development and innovation between Hong Kong and Shenzhen, within the Hetao Shenzhen-Hong Kong Science and Technology Innovation Cooperation Zone, providing opportunities for companies to connect with the wider innovation ecosystem of China’s Greater Bay Area.
