The program will help organizations leverage Platform Equinix to expand their IT footprint efficiently and connect to multiple clouds.
The Digital Super-connector Program is focused on attracting foreign companies to invest in Hong Kong, enabling them to tap into the vast opportunities presented by GBA and the wider China market.
Additionally, it aims to support Chinese companies seeking global expansion through Hong Kong.
