Cyberport, Hong Kong's fintech hub, has filled 50% of its offices in the fifth phase of its expansion with 66,000 square metres of space. According to the hub's chairman, Simon Chan Sai-ming, the expansion has attracted major tenants such as Lenovo and BrainCo, a Hangzhou-based tech cluster member. Chan highlighted Cyberport's commitment to AI development as a pillar industry in Hong Kong's inaugural five-year plan, emphasizing talent training and cross-border data governance improvements.
The fifth-phase project, allocated $700.9 million in 2019, was completed in June and includes a 10-storey tower with 66,000 square metres of gross floor area. About half of the new space is dedicated to offices and co-working, while the rest houses a Tier-III+ data centre. Cyberport aims to foster innovation by welcoming both mature companies and start-ups, offering subsidised computing power to SMEs, and promoting AI literacy through its "AI for All" initiative.
