The investment matching platform is opened up to HKSTPC incubatees and tenants, university start-ups and any start-ups that belong to a recognized Partner Organization which is qualified to conduct a preliminary screening on their investment readiness. IMGs have been held since March 2010 at the rate of roughly once every two months.
