Hong Kong puts Chinese AI autonomous driving technology firm on road to global expansion
InvestHK, city government agency responsible for attracting foreign direct investment, helps Uisee open new international HQ, office and R&D centre
Hong Kong’s economic growth and future prosperity depend to a large extent on the success of enterprises in developing and deploying new technologies and capitalising on their potential.
The city, of course, must be ready to play a full part in this new age of innovation, which is already transforming many aspects of trade, industry and finance by creating era-defining products, supply chains and opportunities for investment.
Fortunately, it is doing just that by rolling out the welcome mat for entrepreneurial start-ups and forward-looking businesses from mainland China and around the world.
Taking the lead in this respect is InvestHK, the government agency responsible for attracting overseas and mainland businesses and providing them with the advice, practical assistance and network of contacts to help them establish a presence in the city.
Importantly, that support continues along every stage the companies embark on in their different phases of growth. Appropriate experts are on hand to act as consultants on everything from training programmes and finding bigger premises to securing sources of funding and planning for overseas expansion.
One company that has clearly benefited from this extensive backing is Uisee, a Chinese company that is a leader in autonomous driving technologies.
