Tech founders and investors invited to attend Hong Kong trade mission
Tech West England Advocates (TWEA) is inviting tech founders and investors from across the West of England and the UK to join them on a Hong Kong trade mission later this year.
Mission to Hong Kong – Your Tech Gateway to Asia Pacific – will take place from 13th-17th November. It is open to tech founders with export-ready technologies in areas including cleantech, healthtech, fintech, AI, robotics, regtech and SmartCity tech, and to investors and VCs.
Richard Lowe, founder of TWEA and mission organiser said: “Hong Kong is Asia’s most vibrant city and the ideal place to do business.
“Excellent infrastructure, pro-business policies and a strategic location make it the preferred destination, and the best gateway for opportunities across Asia Pacific. As well as visiting Hong Kong’s science and technology park and cyberport tech hubs, our mission is planned during StartMeUp HK 2023 week, which attracts 8,000 delegates from around the world into Hong Kong. The event is designed to support companies that are looking at Hong Kong as a start-up hub for their Asia Pacific expansion and will enrich networking, business matching and investment opportunities.”
Six launch events, supported by InvestHK are scheduled between 19th and 27th April for in-person and online attendees to learn more about the export market opportunity.
These are free to all tech founders and investors to join. To book a place visit www.techwestenglandadvocates.co.uk and to express interest as a mission delegate or sponsor, email richard@hewlettrand.com for more details.
