History
The company was established and listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange via Growth Enterprise Market in 2000 with its IPO price of HK$10.38 per share. The international placing and public offer of the shares subscription were 55 and 217 times oversubscribed respectively. The company transferred its listing to the Main Board in 2018 as the data centre business continued to grow.
In recent years, in view of the rising demand of internet and network data storage, processing and transfer, the HKSAR Government has advocated strategic development for Hong Kong to become the prime location for data centers in Asia Pacific. Through long-term strategic initiatives such as industrial building conversion, high-tier data centre land auctions, and expansion projects, the company has been an active key player in the data centre business in Hong Kong.
