In recent years, significant resources have been dedicated by the Government, public bodies, and private organisations to advance the development of innovation and technology (I&T) in Hong Kong.  With the increasing public and private funding support for I&T, the ecosystem has become more vibrant.  However, the influx of capital also invites dishonest practitioners to exploit the system for personal gain.  Corruption in the industry poses a grave threat to integrity, damages public confidence, and ultimately hinders I&T development.  Therefore, it is essential for I&T practitioners to implement effective safeguards to ensure the integrity and fairness of the relevant processes and the fostering of a probity culture in the I&T sector.

The Private Sector Integrity Centre (PSIC) offers anti-corruption and integrity training to help I&T practitioners remain vigilant against corruption risks and uphold high integrity standards.  We also provide corruption prevention advisory services and practical resources to assist organisations in strengthening safeguards and fostering an ethical culture.

Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and start‑ups are key drivers of innovation, employment and economic growth. Characterised by lean structures and agile operations, they are well positioned to respond swiftly to evolving market demands and emerging opportunities in a competitive market. However, if corruption and bribery risks are not properly managed, they may lead to reputational and financial damage, serious operational disruption, regulatory consequences, and in extreme cases, the complete collapse of a business.
