The Macroview acquisition has further enriched HGC’s portfolio of ICT and digital solutions and smart applications. In the realm of smart solutions, the Enterprise-Smart (E-Smart) and Property-Smart (P-Smart), which serve enterprises and building management respectively, were launched in Q4 2019, providing one-stop solutions including smart office, smart shop and smart parking. Adding on, an integrated portal that allows users monitoring and controlling on all kinds of smart devices, saving time to manage different portal for different smart systems, adopting Artificial Intelligence (AI) alert to streamline operation was launched. Further digital solutions tailored to address rising demand in fields such as managed cybersecurity and managed connectivity, including WiFi, cloud and fixed network, are expected to be fully launched in 2020.
New ICT and digital solutions are expected to be available to Southeast Asian markets such as Malaysia, the Philippines and Singapore in 2020 and will be further extended to other markets via HGC’s extensive overseas presence.
HGC CEO Andrew Kwok said: “The HGC Smart Digital Ecosystem has enabled us to leapfrog technology and provides a superhighway for large and small corporations to support their digital transformation journey. The deliverables are obviously outstanding as a number of significant transactions have already been secured in the past few months. The platform is just the beginning, with more enhancements to come in the near future that will further uplift HGC’s capabilities in providing sophisticated ICT solutions to meet evolving customer needs and reinforce our market leadership in the new digital age. Following the successful Macroview acquisition, the entire team of Macroview senior management are integrated into HGC and engaged in our daily business operation, coming together to achieve anticipated synergies and outstanding results.”
