The recent report about success of Vitargent in Geneva makes me curious about the high tech development and startup in Hong Kong, a small city heavily really on its financial services for decades.
There is an interesting report by South China Morning Post:
Top 5 most promising Hong Kong start-ups
GoGoVan
"Originally envisioned as a business selling advertising on takeaway lunch-boxes, the founders of GoGoVan soon switched to logistics when they discovered how hard it could be to book delivery drivers through Hong Kong’s dispatch centres."
Insigth Robotics
"Hong Kong-based firefighting robot firm Insight Robotics has developed a wildfire detection system combining thermal imaging and artificial intelligence technology to spot fires."
Vitargent
"Vitargent uses fish embryos to test food, cosmetics or other consumer goods for contaminants and toxins."
Sensbeat
"Launched in August 2014, Sensbeat is a mobile app which allow users to share their moods through music and photographs."
GoGoVan, Insigth Robotics, Vitargent, and Sensbeat successfully secured a series A funding.
Let's see how they can change our life in this modern city. Good luck!
