Hong Kong will fund your startup with up to $165K.
Year 1: zero equity.
It's run by HKSTP, Hong Kong's government-backed science park and it's open to founders from anywhere.
What you get:
- Up to HK$840K (about $108K) for R&D and business costs
- Up to HK$450K (about $58K) in office rent support
- 3 years of mentorship, labs and investor matching
- A base in one of Asia's biggest finance hubs
No deadline. Applications open 24/7, 365 days a year.
Who can apply:
- Tech startups under 5 years old with an MVP or prototype
- Founders must own at least 51%
- Foreign founders: register a Hong Kong company first (InvestHK, the government office, helps you)
- At least 2 full-time staff who can work in Hong Kong
Fine print:
→ Year 1 is equity-free
→ Years 2–3 funding requires a SAFE (future equity) after a Demo Day review
AI, electronics, green tech, deep tech and more.
