What are HK VC\u2019s looking for when investing in Europe?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

When you think about Hong Kong, you will probably think about a financial and logistics hub that connects China to the rest of the World, well, you should start thinking about it as one of the worlds most vibrant start-up hubs. Hong Kong start-ups raised US$2.28b in 2018, up from US$1.26b in 2017 and US$547m in 2016, putting the local ecosystem in the global spotlight. With homegrown unicorns such as GoGoVan, LaLamove, Klook, SenseTime and TinkLabs, more promising local start-ups coming up and an increasing influx of foreign start-ups setting up their Asia operations in Hong Kong, it has truly become a place not be missed for global entrepreneurs and investors.<\/p>\n
