It is in the DNA of Cyberport to effectively support
entrepreneurial talents to capitalise on emerging
opportunities on the horizon. Cyberport is intent on
encouraging creativity, ingenuity, innovation and spurring
the passion of digital entrepreneurs, so that the Hong Kong
community can reap benefits from these dynamic
entrepreneurial pursuits.
Going forwards, Cyberport will not only continue to offer
tangible support to ensure that good ideas can be
developed, but also press ahead new initiatives under our
ecosystem. Entrepreneurship support starts with Cyberport
Creative Micro Fund and as a start-up matures, it can
progress to Cyberport Incubation Programme, then to
Cyberport Accelerator Support Programme and finally
Cyberport Macro Fund, the foundation of which was built
over the past year. These initiatives form a more
comprehensive funding support service ensuring any good
ideas with good development potential will not go to waste.
Over time, it is hoped that the products and services
developed by Cyberport-supported start-ups can scale up
to successfully access not just neighbouring markets in the
Mainland, but globally as well.
The establishment of the new Innovation and Technology
Bureau in November 2015 and strategic initiatives outlined
in the 2016 Policy Address for the development of the
innovation and technology industry have also given
Cyberport new impetus to advance its work. Guided by
these clear visions and directions for Hong Kong, Cyberport
will take bold strides to enhance and enrich all its
programmes and offerings. We will also work closely with
the industry to provide our start-ups and innovators a more
supportive foundation to grow from strength to strength.
The ach i evement s o f the pas t year a t t es t to the
collaborative efforts of our team and our Board of Directors
who had worked fervently with the “Triple Helix” of industry,
academia and government to achieve the objectives
outlined in our second three-year strategic plan. We could
not have done so without Cyberport’s strong dedicated
team who apply their zeal, commitment and unending
energy at every turn to take Cyberport further on the
journey of success in realising its ambition to become
Cyberport of the world, a leading global digital technology
and innovation hub, standing as a beacon to digital
entrepreneurs worldwide.
