Objectives and Responsibilities 

HKSTP is a place that brings scientists, technologists and entrepreneurs together with investors to turn dreams into reality.

While we welcomed new tenants moving into SPX1, HKSTP also launched the Park’s Stage Two Expansion (SPX2). We will soon mark a milestone for HKSTP when we celebrate our 20^th Anniversary in 2022.

Park Experience, achieved through gelling different venues which were developed over past 18 years, is vital to encourage mingling of talents.
