Hong Kong STartup News
Below is an uncategorised summary of Hong Kong’s broad tech and startup news reported across January, February and March in 2018.
We also deliver a monthly startup news update on Hong Kong.
Note: We’re currently revising our methods for gathering HK-specific news, given the apparent ‘lightness’ of our coverage in Q1 2018.
Accompanying this, we also deliver a daily startup news report
via social media, posting Hong Kong’s startup news on Twitter,
on LinkedIn and via StartupAsiaNews on Facebook.
The collected quarterly items – spanning all countries in South and Southeast Asia, Australia and New Zealand – can also be ordered as a 90+ page publication in full-colour hardopy.
