Ir Prof Alan Lam shared valuable insights into the evolving landscape of philanthropy and impact investing in Asia.

The S+ Summit cum Expo serves as a vital platform for industry leaders, policymakers, and social entrepreneurs to share knowledge, exchange ideas, and explore collaborative opportunities. Ir Prof Alan Lam’s involvement underscores Gravity Capital Partners’ commitment to fostering positive social impact through strategic investment and innovative philanthropy.

Here is the summary of Alan’s sharing in the event:

The critical role of impact investing in nurturing Hong Kong’s innovation and technology sector, and how this aligns with our goal of transforming our city into a premier international hub for innovation and technology. There are some talking points for your reference: 

1. The Current Landscape

Hong Kong, with its strategic location, robust legal system, and financial prowess, has all the makings of a global innovation and technology center. Yet, our journey is just beginning. As impact investors, we at Gravity Capital Partners recognize the immense potential that lies in supporting this transformation.

2. Supporting Innovation and Technology Projects

Our commitment goes beyond mere financial contributions; it’s about making a tangible difference. By strategically investing in local innovation and technology projects, we are not only fostering economic growth but also addressing societal challenges through sustainable solutions. In addition, we also provide different advisory supports such as tech enabling and business network 

3. The Role of Impact Investors

As impact investors, we have the power to steer the development of key industries. By targeting our investments towards sectors with high growth potential and societal impact, such as food technology, mobility-tech, health-tech, and AI, we can propel Hong Kong forward on the global stage.

4. Investing in University Deep Tech Projects

One of the most promising areas for impact investment is in university deep tech projects. These ventures, often at the forefront of cutting-edge research, require patient capital to realize their potential. Our role in this is twofold: providing the necessary funding and bridging the gap between academia and the market.

5. Leveraging RAISe+ Funding Scheme

To magnify our impact, Gravity Capital Partners actively participates in the RAISe+ funding scheme. This initiative is a testament to the government’s commitment to nurturing high-potential startups. By aligning our investments with RAISe+, we ensure that not only are we supporting innovative businesses, but we’re also contributing to a structured ecosystem that promotes long-term sustainability and growth.
