Welcome to datacentre.gov.hk, the thematic portal by the Digital Policy Office (DPO) of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government to provide information and assistance on data centre development in Hong Kong.

The data centre sector has been growing fast in Hong Kong in recent years. The demand for data centres in the coming years will continue to increase. The HKSAR Government is committed to fostering Hong Kong as the prime location for data centres in Asia Pacific in developing Hong Kong into a hub for technological cooperation and trade.

This portal details the strategic advantages and benefits of establishing data centres in Hong Kong, availability of sites as well as government support to data centre operators who are interested in setting up in Hong Kong or expanding their existing business here.

For assistance please contact the Data Centre Facilitation Unit. We are here to facilitate and help.
