The consistent success of HKSTP’s park companies at the highest level is proof of Hong Kong’s growing I&T status and is a real shot in the arm for home-grown innovators aspiring to create world-changing inventions. We congratulate all the winners on their success and will continue utilize the strength of our combined network to power Hong Kong’s next era of growth with I&T.”
