The 5th BusinessFocus Business Award ceremony, hosted by PressLogic's premier business and finance platform, BusinessFocus, concluded successfully on 29 August at the Hong Kong Football Club. The event celebrated and congratulated 22 award-winning companies. This year's awards were designed to honor outstanding enterprises and exceptional brands that have made significant contributions to Hong Kong's economic and social development while actively embracing Artificial Intelligence (AI) and big data technologies.

Annual Theme: Data Empowerment, Leading a New Era of Intelligent Marketing

In today's world, where the AI wave is sweeping the globe and disrupting traditional business models, this year's event was themed "Data Empowerment: Leading a New Era of Intelligent Marketing." AI is no longer just a technological breakthrough; it is the core driving force reshaping the future of all industries. The organizers hope that through the BusinessFocus Business Award platform, more enterprises will be inspired to break traditional boundaries, integrate AI into their strategies, and use data insights to lead innovation, ultimately contributing to the prosperous development of Hong Kong's economy.

Leaders Gather to Analyze Frontier Trends

In the presence of over 120 political and business leaders and industry elites, the ceremony honored 22 companies, the largest number of award winners in the five-year history of the event. It was a great honor to witness the past efforts and achievements of these companies and welcome their year of success. The lineup of Guests of Honour was also stellar.

  • Ms. Lillian CHEONG, JP - Under Secretary for Innovation, Technology and Industry of the HKSAR Government
  • Mr. Nicholas CHAN, BBS, MH, JP - Member of the National People's Congress of the PRC, Member of the Board of Directors of Cyberport, Partner at Squire Patton Boggs
  • Mr. Hendrick SIN, MH, JP - Member of the National People's Congress of the PRC, Chairman of the HKSAR Government's Artificial Intelligence Funding Scheme Committee, President of the Internet Professional Association, Co-founder and Vice Chairman of CMGE Technology Group Ltd
  • Ms. Hilda CHAN - Chief Marketing Officer of Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation (HKSTP)
  • Mr. Ryan CHEUNG - Founder & CEO of PressLogic

In his welcoming speech, Mr. Ryan Cheung, Founder & CEO of PressLogic, stated that the company's vision is to empower all industries with data and AI. He emphasized, "Today, embracing and applying AI is no longer an option—it is critical for a business's survival. In the world of commerce, wherever there is profit, new AI-driven enterprises will continue to disrupt traditional industries, separating the strong from the weak." He also shared how PressLogic started as a data analytics company and has since successfully founded multiple data-driven media brands over nine years, expressing his gratitude for the support from the innovation and technology ecosystem, Cyberport, HKSTP and investors. He also used the opportunity to announce the company's strategic acquisition of Baby Kingdom, one of Hong Kong's largest, most active, and longest-standing online parenting communities. He hopes its massive database will bring greater value to clients and society, and he concluded by congratulating all the 22 award winners.

"The HKSAR Government has consistently supported innovation, technology, and AI development," said Ms. Lillian Cheong, Under Secretary for Innovation, Technology and Industry Bureau of HKSAR Government, in her address. "The government places a high priority on AI development, designating it as a key industry. We've introduced a series of multi-pronged measures to support the business community in their digital transformation through AI, including our 'Smart Government and Smart City' initiatives. The first phase of the Cyberport AI Supercomputing Centre is now operational, meeting the strong demand for computing power in the local community. Last year, the government launched a $3 billion AI funding scheme, and we are now preparing to establish the Hong Kong Institute for Artificial Intelligence Research to focus on innovative R&D, commercialization of mid-to-downstream outcomes, and industrial applications. This will facilitate cross-sector collaboration among industry, academia, and research. Furthermore, we have introduced a $500 million 'Digital Transformation Support Pilot Programme' to accelerate the digital transformation of SMEs and enhance their competitiveness." She expressed her hope that this series of policies and measures would further unleash Hong Kong's AI potential and create more development opportunities and space for the business community.

In his speech, Mr. Nicholas Chan, a Member of the National People's Congress and Board Member of Cyberport, stated that Hong Kong should leverage the unique advantages of 'One Country, Two Systems' to follow the national 'AI+' and 'new quality productive forces' policies, achieving 'corner overtaking' in new areas. He explained, "How do we achieve corner overtaking? We must follow national policies, AI plus new productive forces, and create a new lane for ourselves to run in, and even achieve corner overtaking." He encouraged the entrepreneurs in attendance to reflect on "what the world is lacking" and to bravely innovate using resources such as the Cyberport AI Supercomputing Centre and government funding. He expressed his hope that the award winners would engage in more exchanges and work together to take their businesses global.

Mr. Hendrick Sin, a Member of the National People's Congress and Chairman of the HKSAR Government's AI Funding Scheme Committee, said from an investor's perspective that witnessing PressLogic's growth was a story of hard work and determination, a "Lion Rock spirit" story. He said, "PressLogic is a classic Hong Kong entrepreneurial story; in fact, it is a story of the Lion Rock spirit." He affirmed that the HKSAR Government's innovation and technology blueprint and substantial funding have provided the nourishment for the industry's success. As the Chairman of the AI Funding Scheme Committee, he was pleased to see the high utilization rate of the Cyberport AI Supercomputing Centre, which proves strong market demand, and he believes that the awards serve a legacy-building role, motivating more businesses to succeed.

Ms. Hilda Chan, Chief Marketing Officer of HKSTP, said in her speech that the theme of this year's awards aligns perfectly with HKSTP's philosophy of "Leading Innovation, Achieving More." She also expressed her pride in PressLogic becoming one of HKSTP's elite companies. She introduced HKSTP as a cradle of innovation, noting that the park has gathered over 2,400 companies, of which more than 500 are engaged in AI-related work. She stated that the award-winning companies have proven that data and technology can be transformed into wisdom and innovative value, and she concluded by encouraging all sectors to continue "using data as a wing and innovation as a force" to drive Hong Kong's economic development.
