The Hong Kong Information Technology Federation (HKITF) was founded in 1980 as a non-profit, non-political trade association to provide a forum in which the IT-related business in Hong Kong can work together for the benefit of the industry and to maintain a high level of business practice amongst the members. Currently, HKITF has over 300 members.
HKITF acts as the bridge for international IT companies looking for local partners and works with trade commissions to host trade promotion events. It supports and sponsors various IT sectors to develop focus groups; promotes local IT business through various activities; and also helps keeping members abreast of local IT developments and business opportunities.
In the public sector, HKITF works closely with government to promote the development of the local IT industry. HKITF represents the industry on the Committee on Economic Development and Economic Cooperation with the Mainland of Commission on Strategic Development, Committee on Management and Supervisory Training under Vocational Training Council, Industry Training Advisory Committee under Employment and Manpower Bureau, Digital 21 Strategy Advisory Committee, Transport Advisory Committee, Special Task Force on Information Technology (OGCIO), Task Force on Facilitating the Adoption of Wireless and Mobile Services and Technology, TV Programme Advisory Committee of Radio Television HK, Electronic & Communication Committee of Occupational Safety & Health Council and many other government committees.
