Invest Hong Kong (InvestHK), the government department established in 2000 to head up the SAR's efforts to attract inward investment, launched a new online Information Centre last week which aims to provide detailed and user-friendly business information about Hong Kong. The objective of the Hong Kong government is to ensure that overseas companies have all the necessary support to establish or expand operations in Hong Kong, China and the Asia Pacific region, making use of Hong Kong as a commercial base or bridge.
The new website, www.InvestHK.gov.hk, contains more than 300 pages of material and will be regularly updated. It specifies the objectives and services offered by InvestHK, and provides local and overseas contact points, with an online enquiry page for direct response.
Associate Director-General of Investment Promotion, Mr Stephen Ng Chin-ming, commented: 'This new website describes precisely the Hong Kong Advantage, and explains how InvestHK can help overseas companies maximise investment opportunities in Hong Kong, enjoy high quality individualised services and continue to prosper.'
Hong Kong is keen to attract overseas corporate investment, so InvestHK presents Hong Kong as an international hub, a dynamic location for business, the gateway to China and a superior location in terms of infrastructure. The new website also highlights Hong Kong's rule of law, accessibility of information, free economy, and availability of human resources.
Sector-specific information is available online regarding Hong Kong's business areas, including business and professional services, financial services, information technology, telecommunications, biotechnology, electronics, media and multimedia, tourism and entertainment, trade related services and the transportation industry. There is also information about the regional headquarters of overseas companies.
Investor guides are available online for high-tech support, business set-up, and regulation framework. Facts and statistics are provided on Hong Kong's macroeconomics, demographics and marketing, industry and trade, foreign investment, labour force, and business and expatriate expenses.
