A New-Zealand invested anti-spam and security service provider, MailProve Limited, has chosen Hong Kong Cyberport to set up its regional headquarters. 

The chief executive officer of MailProve Limited, Jeffrey Vong, said: "Hong Kong is ideally situated in the centre of Asia, which is important for companies like us that conduct business in more than one market in the region. We can conveniently and efficiently travel to, and communicate with, the rest of the region, including the Chinese mainland."

Mr Vong added that Hong Kong's excellent business environment offers great opportunities for IT companies.  "Our customers are mainly ISPs, managed service providers, hosting companies and enterprises with their own mail servers. We believe that Hong Kong, with well established IT and telecommunications infrastructure in place, allows us to stay close to the latest developments in the industry. Its proximity and close ties to the mainland provides another attraction to us. That's why we decided to build our base in Hong Kong."

MailProve's headquarters in Hong Kong will be used as a strategic location to tap into target markets in the Asia Pacific region, including Australia, New Zealand, Mainland China, Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore, Japan and Korea.

John Rutherford, associate director-general of investment promotion at InvestHK, said MailProve's presence "further strengthens Hong Kong's position as one of the leading and most sophisticated IT hubs in Asia."
