As part of these efforts, SUNeVision is committed to building a world-class AI network infrastructure, strengthening Hong Kong’s connectivity with the mainland and global advanced technology markets.”

He added: “Despite the long investment return period for MEGA IDC, the Group remains committed, reflecting its role as a provider of ‘patient capital’ for Hong Kong and its confidence in the development of the data industry. In line with State Council Vice Premier Ding Xuexiang’s call to invest early, focus on the long-term growth and support ‘hard technologies’, SHKP will leverage its world-class data infrastructure to drive Hong Kong’s technological development. This will reinforce its role as a bridge connecting the mainland with the global technology world, enhancing Hong Kong’s competitiveness in the international AI arena.”

“We’ve always believed that pet products should not only be functional, but also beautifully integrated into everyday life.” — Eric Guu, Co-founder, FikaGO

SoHo was a considered choice: Flying Solo, with locations in New York and Paris, is known for championing independent design with a distinctly global sensibility.

The pop-up showcases FikaGO’s auto-folding Free To Go 2 in Sandy Beige, the brand’s bestselling product. All FikaGO’s products are manufactured using eco-friendly fabrics made from recycled materials, reflecting a commitment to sustainability. This includes their large-capacity Agile 2 pet strollers to their airline-approved Truffle carriers and the heavy-duty Kross pet wagon.

“Launching in SoHo is a meaningful milestone for us; it allows customers to truly experience the quality, design, and intention behind every FikaGO product.” — Eric Guu, Co-founder, FikaGO

As pet ownership rises globally, particularly among urban millennials and Gen Zs, demand for products that combine functionality, design, and lifestyle integration continues to grow. FikaGO was built for precisely this moment, and SoHo is precisely where that moment lives.
