The Hong Kong ICT Awards were established in 2006 as a collaborative effort among industry support organizations, ICT professional bodies, academia and the Government to establish a large scale and internationally recognized branding of ICT awards of Hong Kong. Aiming to promote and commend the excellent achievements of the local ICT professionals and organizations, the Awards also encourage local practitioners to develop innovative and creative ICT solutions, which will uplift the image of Hong Kong ICT sectors, both locally and internationally.

With the effort from six local industry-related organizations, the Hong Kong ICT Awards 2006 had drawn over 300 entries for the seven award categories; and successfully increased the awareness amongst the industry and the public. Following the success of the Awards in 2006, the Hong Kong ICT Awards 2007 will be another focal point of the industry in 2007.
