Cyberport and Telkom University Formed Partnership to Accelerate HK Tech Expansion in ASEAN and Belt & Road
The partnership focuses on technology transfer, mentorship for start-ups and access to global markets, with a particular emphasis on two-way expansion between Hong Kong and Indonesia. It helps accelerate technology innovations from Hong Kong and the Chinese Mainland into emerging ASEAN markets under the Belt and Road Initiative, while attracting high-calibre start-ups and entrepreneurs from Indonesia into Cyberport.
The collaboration will prioritise projects in AI, Web3.0, smart city solutions, e-farming and digital creative industries. Tel-U and Bandung Techno Park will serve as a gateway and soft landing partner for Cyberport companies and innovators entering Indonesia, while Cyberport will provide a platform for Indonesian start-ups to connect with investors, partners from the Chinese Mainland and international markets.
Stanley Wan, Director-General (Acting) of Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office – Jakarta, said, “The MOU opens new gateways for both ecosystems to collaborate from artificial intelligence, Web3, smart city development, to other high-potential fields, generating opportunities for start-ups and innovators.”
Simon Chan, Chairman of Cyberport, stated, “As Cyberport actively serves as a ‘super-connector’ and ‘super value-adder’ connecting Hong Kong, the Chinese Mainland and the world, this partnership with Telkom University exemplifies our international two-way platform to advance innovation and entrepreneurship across borders by linking Hong Kong and Chinese Mainland start-ups with high-potential markets in ASEAN along the Belt and Road Initiative and facilitating ASEAN companies to tap the high-growth markets on the Mainland. By synergising our ecosystems, we are creating a broader international stage for Hong Kong and Indonesian start-ups, helping them capture high-growth opportunities in ASEAN, while pooling technology, global talent, investments and innovation resources in Hong Kong, and thus reinforcing our city’s position as an international I&T hub.”
The initiative is designed to support Indonesia’s Asta Cita 2045 vision, especially in digital talent and innovation-driven growth, while aligning with Hong Kong’s role as a “super-connector” for the Belt and Road and ASEAN region.
Tubagus Nugraha, Executive Director of the National Economic Council, said, “We hope this partnership strengthen our global innovation networks and accelerate Indonesia’s path toward becoming a more digital, innovative, and competitive nation.”
Professor Dr Suyanto, S.T., M.Sc Rector of Telkom University, said, “Through this collaboration, we hope to accelerate innovation connectivity between Indonesia and Hong Kong and pave the way for our mentored start-ups to make a significant impact in the global market.”
The MoU establishes a framework for joint activities that will support tech companies from both ecosystems. Key initiatives include:
- Encourage tech industry growth by guiding Indonesian tech companies to leverage Cyberport as a springboard to Hong Kong’s thriving sectors such as AI, FinTech, blockchain and smart city solution, and other emerging technologies.
- Introduce proof-of-concept and pilot implementation opportunities in Indonesia for Cyberport start-ups, facilitating their expansion into Indonesian & ASEAN markets.
- Connect Cyberport companies to access Tel-U’s partnership networks for business integration and investment opportunities for Cyberport start-ups.
- Provide assistance, investments and resources for high-calibre Indonesian companies to take foot in Hong Kong and the Chinese Mainland markets by landing in Cyberport and leveraging Cyberport partnership networks and industry initiatives.
Dennis Tedja, Cyberport Ambassador for Indonesia, and Professor Dr Suyanto, S.T., M.Sc Rector of Telkom University, exchanged the MoU in Indonesia.
Cyberport actively serves as a “super-connector” and “super value-adder”, enabling over 330 Cyberport-incubated companies to expand into more than 35 overseas markets, while one-third of on-site company founders originate from 27 countries and regions. Among the high-growth markets along the Belt and Road, more than 80 Cyberport companies have expanded to ASEAN including Indonesia, Singapore, and Malaysia, while over 30 start-ups have expanded to the Middle East markets.
Meanwhile, Cyberport has continued to expand global alliances to facilitate cross-regional growth of tech ecosystems and expansion of Hong Kong tech innovation on a global stage. Cyberport has forged strategic partnerships with UAE’s accelerator Hub71, Saudi Arabia’s national technology park KACST, Dubai Future Foundation, Thailand’s Digital Economy Promotion Agency (DEPA) and InnoSpace, Korea’s largest start-up accelerator d.camp, Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC) and Draper Dragon from the US Silicon Valley. This growing global network positions Cyberport as an international two-way platform for Hong Kong and Chinese Mainland tech companies to access high-growth Belt and Road markets and for overseas companies to access the Chinese Mainland. Cyberport will continue to build an international and diverse ecosystem, bringing together innovative talent, technology, investments and resources, and actively attracting more talent from Hong Kong, the Chinese Mainland and overseas.

AECOM supports CEDD and AFCD of HKSAR Government in launching Hong Kong’s first comprehensive nature-based solutions guidelines to advance sustainable urban development
Developed through multidisciplinary expertise in ecology, landscape architecture, engineering, climate resilience and urban planning, the HKNbSDG provides a practical blueprint for designing, implementing, sustainably managing, and evaluating NbS across diverse environmental contexts — from rivers and wetlands to coastlines and high-density urban districts.
Factoring in the characteristics of Hong Kong’s natural ecology and urban development, the HKNbSDG is built on three core principles that outline a holistic approach to promoting ecosystem diversity at multiple scales, embracing human-nature coexistence for mutual benefits, and improving resilience through NbS. It also includes a performance evaluation framework to support evidence-based decision-making and features local case studies, including Long Valley Nature Park and Tung Chung East Eco-shoreline.
“The HKNbSDG reflects our commitment to advancing nature‑positive design and supporting Hong Kong’s journey toward climate resilience and sustainable growth,” said Dr. Johnny Cheuk, senior vice president and Hong Kong executive leader at AECOM. “By integrating ecological science into design practice, we aim to empower practitioners to harness nature’s potential in building climate-resilient infrastructure.”
The HKNbSDG was officially launched at the Promulgation Ceremony held on March 3, 2026, at Long Valley Nature Park. The event was officiated by Miss. Diane Wong Shuk-han, JP, Under Secretary for Environment and Ecology; Mr. David Lam Chi-man, JP, Under Secretary for Development; Mr. Charles Karangwa, Global Head of Nature-based Solutions Centre of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN); Ir Michael Fong Hok-shing, JP, Director of Civil Engineering and Development; and Mr. Mickey Lai Kin-ming, JP, Director of Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation.
The ceremony featured an introduction to the HKNbSDG by Stephen Suen, director of landscape architecture at AECOM, followed by a panel discussion on building cross-sector partnerships to reverse nature and biodiversity loss through NbS.
Panelists included:
- Mr. Charles Karangwa, Global Head, Nature-based Solutions Centre, IUCN
- Ir. Michael Fong Hok‑shing, JP, Director of Civil Engineering and Development
- Mr. Mickey Lai Kin Ming, JP, Director of Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation
- Ms. Frances Chen, Director, Sustainability & Climate Change, North Asia, HSBC
- Mr. Benny Au, Senior Manager, Sustainable Development, Swire Properties Limited
The release of the HKNbSDG supports Hong Kong’s key policy commitments, including the Climate Action Plan 2050 and its biodiversity conservation targets, by providing a practical roadmap for enhancing urban resilience and expanding green infrastructure. This publication equips practitioners with essential tools — from integrating ecology into early planning to designing for multifunctional benefits — grounded in Hong Kong-specific experience. It also serves as a central resource for advancing the Northern Metropolis development strategy, where NbS is helping to drive urban-rural integration and foster the co-existence of urban development and ecological conservation.
The HKNbSDG forms part of AECOM’s broader mission to help cities adapt to climate risks while enhancing quality of life. By bringing together global best practices and local ecological insights, AECOM aims to strengthen industry-wide capability in implementing NbS at scale.
