ATTENTION - 19/3/2020

Due to the changing circumstances of COVID-19, we regrettably announce that we are forced to postpone the event until further notice. We give our sincere apologies to all our attendees and stakeholders. We are now assessing how or when we can deliver the event. Please remain tuned in for developments.


What are the impacts of these challenging times on the startup community in Hong Kong? What are our resources and how can we leverage them? How can entrepreneurs survive and thrive in Hong Kong today?

Hong Kong. "Asia's World City." Is it still one of Asia's strongest startup ecosystems?
