The program will provide access to NTT's technology solutions and operational support.

Telecommunications and ICT service provider NTT Com Asia Limited (NTT) has introduced the "NTT Innovation Alliance Programme" in a bid to boost the city’s tech community by offering access to NTT's technology solutions and operational support.

The programme is also in collaboration with Hong Kong Cyberport, Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation, Logistics and Supply Chain MultiTech R&D Centre, City University of Hong Kong, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, and The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. 

"We are witnessing a surge of businesses stepping up to innovate sustainably in the AI era, as we collectively recognise the untapped potential of this space within the tech ecosystem,” said Taichi Hiramatsu, chief executive officer of NTT Com Asia Limited - Hong Kong.

“NTT is taking the pioneering initiative to forge an alliance, harnessing capabilities and amplifying synergies across sectors through sustainable innovations,” he continued.

NTT's "docomo 5G DX Square" in Hong Kong has a private 5G-ready environment equipped with advanced technologies. This facilitates onsite testing, development, and showcases, providing firsthand experiences based on market insights from Hong Kong and Japan.

Through the programme, ideas are turned into practical solutions with professional support, potentially marketed locally in Hong Kong and internationally, including flagship events in Japan.

A series of events, including workshops, training sessions, and community programs, will be held throughout the year to foster collaborative initiatives.
