[Global Capital Opportunities] Global Investor Institute Officially Launched — Aims to Establish Hong Kong as the World Investors Hub

Published

on

HONG KONG, June 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — A new international platform for global investor engagement — Global Investor Institute — has been officially launched in Hong Kong. The Institute aims to create the city’s first dedicated global investor hub, serving as a continuous exchange for institutional investors, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals. It seeks to further strengthen Hong Kong’s position as a key bridge connecting global capital and technology center.

Bringing Together Global Investors Legend with Three Core Missions:

i. Fostering Regional Dialogue: Establishing continuous communication among institutional investors, family offices, and entrepreneurs across the region.                                              
ii. Introducing International Technologies: Supporting Hong Kong in attracting leading global innovations in blockchain, artificial intelligence (AI), and other frontier technologies.                          
iii. Expanding Asia’s Global Vision: Guiding Asia-based investors and family offices to engage more deeply with the U.S. venture capital ecosystem and global investment opportunities.

Laying the Foundation for an International Exchange Hub:

During its development phase, the Global Investor Institute has already earned strong recognition and support from across the investment community. In April, the Institute successfully hosted a Global Investor & Family Office Luncheon, supported by InvestHK and Allan Zeman, Chairman of Lan Kwai Fong Group, who personally delivered his congratulations. The luncheon attracted a distinguished audience of global investors, family office representatives, academics, and entrepreneurs, establishing a solid foundation for the Institute’s future growth and ongoing operations.

Supported by Global Pioneers — From Silicon Valley to Emerging Markets

The Institute’s founder William Kwok, a seasoned figure in global capital markets, has dedicated more than a decade to bridging international finance and youth development. Eight years ago, he established WILL- Foundation to connect international financial institutions with the next generation of talent. He is also a published author of several works on global institutional investment and possesses a strong record of international strategic planning and connections.

Previously, William served as personal advisor to Dr. Mark Mobius, widely recognized as the Godfather of Emerging Markets, where he facilitated in-depth engagement between Mobius and Hong Kong’s leading family offices. He continues to advocate for the establishment of a Mobius Youth Center in Hong Kong to nurture young talent. Recently, Tim Draper, celebrated globally as the God Father of Silicon Valley Venture Capital, appointed William Kwok as Venture Partner of Draper Dragon. This makes William the only Hong Kong-based professional currently holding such a position. Draper, famed for his early investments in SpaceX and Tesla, has played a pivotal role in shaping the modern venture capital landscape. This appointment reinforces the connection between Silicon Valley’s top-tier innovation community and Hong Kong’s financial ecosystem, offering significant support for the long-term development of the Global Investor Institute and the region’s international investment landscape.

Driving Hong Kong’s Economic Growth and Global Diversification

Speaking on the Institute’s vision, William Kwok expressed his hope to receive broader industry and community support as the Global Investor Institute continues to expand. Leveraging Hong Kong’s strategic position as a global financial hub, the Institute aims to attract more international capital and investors to the city, while also facilitating outbound investment from Hong Kong into global markets. This two-way flow of capital will not only accelerate Hong Kong’s economic growth but also generate high-value job opportunities for the youth. By doing so, the Institute seeks to promote sustainable and diversified development of both Hong Kong’s and the world’s economies.

LITEON Partners With SUTD and Its Spinoff NeuroRAN to Drive AI-RAN Innovation, Advancing Real-Time Edge AI Commercialization over 5G

Published

on

By

TAIPEI, June 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LITEON Technology announced a major milestone in AI-RAN innovation through its collaboration with the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) and SUTD’s spinoff company, NeuroRAN at COMPUTEX 2026. The joint demonstration showcases how AI can be natively integrated into 5G Radio Access Networks (RAN), enabling real-time, privacy-preserving, and energy-efficient edge AI applications.

At the core of the solution is dynamic AI model partitioning. LITEON provides the high-performance O-RU (Radio Unit) integrated with the AI-RAN infrastructure, while SUTD develops AI applications leveraging advanced deep learning models such as the Swin Transformer for real-time video object detection. The solution runs on NVIDIA AI infrastructure, integrating NVIDIA AI Aerial software and high-performance computing to tightly couple AI with 5G networks.

A key innovation is the use of AI-driven spectrum sensing to inform decisions to dynamically distribute AI workloads between user equipment (UE) and edge/cloud environments based on real-time network conditions. Compared with traditional fixed partitioning, this approach significantly reduces latency, optimizes energy consumption, and ensures that sensitive data remains on-device, enhancing both privacy and performance.

The demonstration also integrates a distributed UPF (dUPF) with the 5G core network, further reducing end-to-end latency and strengthening edge AI deployment capabilities for real-world applications such as smart cities, intelligent surveillance, and industrial automation.

Richard Chiang, General Manager of LITEON’s Smart Life Application Strategic Business Unit, said: “Through our collaboration with SUTD and NeuroRAN, we are accelerating AI-RAN from vision to commercialization. By combining LITEON’s expertise in O-RAN and radio infrastructure with advanced NVIDIA AI platforms and applications, we aim to deliver more flexible and efficient network architectures for telecom operators and enterprises.”

Chen Bin Bin, Associate Professor at SUTD and Deputy Director of the Future Communications R&D Programme (FCP), said: “SUTD and our spinoff company, NeuroRAN, are thrilled to partner with LITEON in developing this cutting-edge AI-RAN demonstration. It showcases how intelligent 5G networks can play a key role in enabling new physical AI use cases.”

Looking ahead, LITEON will continue to expand its AI-RAN ecosystem partnerships and accelerate the deployment of real-time AI applications. In addition to AI-RAN commercialization, LITEON plans to provide telecom operators with a flexible AI development environment leveraging NVIDIA DGX Spark platforms, enabling operators to accelerate the research, validation, and deployment of next-generation edge AI applications and services. By utilizing DGX Spark for AI model development and small-scale testing, telecom operators can rapidly prototype innovative AI-driven use cases before scaling them across commercial 5G and future network infrastructures.
