AI cloud graphics processing unit platform sets up regional headquarters in HK
Invest Hong Kong (InvestHK) announced today (Oct. 28) that DeepTrin, an artificial intelligence (AI) cloud graphics processing unit (GPU) platform from the Mainland, has established its regional headquarters in HK, 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 HK into an international innovation and technology hub. InvestHK has rendered DeepTrin full support and welcomes its launch in HK. I wish them every success both in HK and beyond."
According to the Chief Executive Officer and founder of DeepTrin, Mr. Donny Liu, HK'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. "HK has strong links to the Mainland and Asia-Pacific markets. As demand for AI grows across these markets, we will leverage HK as a bridge to accelerate our business growth into these fast-growing markets and acquire new customers," he said.
"HK 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 HK office will lead business expansion and R&D in overseas and mainland markets, excluding the US.
In the next 12 to 18 months, DeepTrin plans to recruit more research talent and strengthen cooperation with local research institutions to accelerate AI development. Additionally, the company will leverage HK's strategic position to further expand into the Asia-Pacific market and enhance its comprehensive partner ecosystem.
