​Invest Hong Kong (InvestHK) announced today (October 28) that DeepTrin, an artificial intelligence (AI) cloud graphics processing unit (GPU) platform from the Mainland, has established its regional headquarters in Hong Kong, aiming to leverage the city's advantages to build a core research and development (R&D) team and raise the brand's influence in the Asia-Pacific market.
The Associate Director-General of Investment Promotion, Mr Charles Ng, said, "The Government is committed to developing Hong Kong into an international innovation and technology hub. InvestHK has rendered DeepTrin full support and welcomes its launch in Hong Kong. I wish them every success both in Hong Kong and beyond."
According to the Chief Executive Officer and founder of DeepTrin, Mr Donny Liu, Hong Kong's advantageous policy support in R&D and business development, its business environment and talent pool were key factors in its decision to set up in the city. "Hong Kong has strong links to the Mainland and Asia-Pacific markets. As demand for AI grows across these markets, we will leverage Hong Kong as a bridge to accelerate our business growth into these fast-growing markets and acquire new customers," he said.
"Hong Kong has world-class universities and research institutions. Additionally, the Government has implemented various policies to encourage R&D, attract talent, protect intellectual property and offer tax incentives. All of these support our technological research and help us maintain a competitive edge in global AI competition," he added.
DeepTrin is an AI cloud GPU platform with a globally distributed GPU network. Customers can access usage-based computing services tailored to their business needs for tasks such as large model training for generative AI. DeepTrin's Hong Kong office will lead business expansion and R&D in overseas and mainland markets, excluding the United States.
In the next 12 to 18 months, DeepTrin plans to recruit more research talent and strengthen co-operation with local research institutions to accelerate AI development. Additionally, the company will leverage Hong Kong's strategic position to further expand into the Asia-Pacific market and enhance its comprehensive partner ecosystem.
