The General Assembly of the Italy-based International Institute for the Unification of Private Law (UNIDROIT) decided (December 11) on the establishment of its UNIDROIT Asia-Pacific Liaison Office (the Office) in the HKSAR, further strengthening the city’s positioning as a centre for international legal and dispute resolution services.
It will be UNIDROIT’s first regional presence outside Rome in the 100-year history of the independent intergovernmental organisation, which works to modernise and harmonise private international law, especially commercial law.
China has been a member of UNIDROIT since 1986, while the HKSAR has participated in the work of UNIDROIT as part of the Chinese delegation.
The Office is expected to open at the Hong Kong Legal Hub in the second half of 2026, coinciding with UNIDROIT’s centenary celebrations next year. Its presence in Hong Kong could also contribute to facilitating coordination and creating synergies among the “three sisters of private international law”, namely UNIDROIT, the Hague Conference on Private International Law (HCCH) and United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL).
The Legal Hub, located in the city’s central business district, already houses a number of international law-related organisations and institutions, including HCCH Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific (ROAP) and the DoJ (Department of Justice) Project Office for Collaboration with UNCITRAL.
In recent years, the DoJ has been collaborating very closely with UNIDROIT, including co-organising biennial Asia-Pacific International Private Law Summit in the HKSAR since 2022 and joint seminars in Rome in 2023 and 2025. Legal professionals in both the private and public sectors from the HKSAR are seconded to the secretariat of UNIDROIT annually, pursuant to the Memoranda of Understanding signed between DoJ and UNIDROIT in 2021 and 2022.
The ROAP of HCCH was set up in the HKSAR in 2012. Since its establishment, ROAP has played a significant role in increasing awareness and understanding of the importance of the HCCH and its instruments among states and stakeholders, as well as contributing to the smooth implementation and operation of the HCCH’s instruments in the Asia-Pacific region.
A new collaborative landmark was achieved earlier this month (December 3) with the staging of the Symposium of the HCCH Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific on Private International Law. The symposium was co-organised by the HCCH and the Hong Kong International Legal Talents Training Academy of the DoJ, as part of the Hong Kong Legal Week 2025. It marked the first time that the DoJ has co-organised an event with the HCCH during Hong Kong Legal Week.
With the staunch support of the Central People’s Government, the HKSAR has been actively participating in the working groups, meetings and activities of the HCCH as part of the Chinese delegation since 1997. Through a standing arrangement with the HCCH, Hong Kong legal talent from both the private and public sectors have the opportunity to be seconded to the Permanent Bureau of the HCCH at the Hague, gaining valuable insights into the work of the HCCH in the field of private international law.
Earlier this year, the headquarters of the International Organization for Mediation (IOMed) officially opened in Hong Kong (October 20), further cementing the city’s prominent role as an international legal services hub.
The IOMed is the world’s first intergovernmental international legal organisation dedicated to resolving international disputes through mediation, and providing an important mechanism for upholding the principles of the Charter of the United Nations.
It fills an institutional gap in international mediation and serves as an important public good in the field of the rule of law for better global governance.
The IOMed will provide a pathway for countries – regardless of culture, language and legal system – to resolve international disputes based on mutual respect and understanding.
Other international intergovernmental organisations such as the Bank for International Settlements, International Monetary Fund, the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the International Finance Corporation have set up offices in Hong Kong. Together with the soon-to-be-established office by the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, these establishments will further complement the city’s strategic position as a centre for international legal and dispute resolution services.

That landscape has grown more challenging than ever. Malaysian SMEs are operating in a climate defined by rising costs, talent shortages, complex regulatory requirements and tightening cash flow. Inflation continues to push operational expenses upward, while difficulties in hiring and retaining skilled talent have slowed growth for many. These pressures have created a harsh reality. Companies that lack adaptability risk losing market share, while those that act decisively are discovering opportunities in places previously overlooked.
Despite these obstacles, the SME sector has demonstrated a remarkable ability to rebound. Recent data shows that SME GDP grew by 11.6 percent, surpassing the national average and signalling that transformation, not stability, is driving growth. Many businesses have embraced digital tools, streamlined operations and explored new revenue pathways. The divide between surviving and thriving is becoming clearer, and it is defined by mindset, capability and speed.
In this environment, the SME100 Awards serves as a crucial platform for SMEs to strengthen their position. The programme provides a structured pathway for benchmarking performance, accessing regional networks and gaining recognition that matters to customers, partners and investors. By combining quantitative financial indicators with qualitative assessments and a full interview process, SME100 identifies companies that are not only resilient, but ready for the next phase of growth. For winners, the programme offers visibility, connection to a strong ASEAN SME community and access to continuous learning and collaboration opportunities.
Datuk William Ng, National President of SAMENTA, underscored the importance of this support. He said, “Malaysian SMEs are confronting some of the toughest market realities in decades. Yet the most progressive among them are proving that adversity can be a turning point. The SME100 Awards highlight these companies not simply for their achievements, but for the mindset they represent. They show the entire SME sector what is possible when we combine innovation, discipline and the willingness to change.”
The SME100 programme is further strengthened by the involvement of key industry partners. CTOS serves as the official credit reporting partner, Baker Tilly Malaysia as the official auditor and CGC Digital as the gold sponsor. Together, they enhance the transparency, credibility and relevance of the awards while reinforcing the broader ecosystem that supports SME growth.

EcoFlow Technology Inc is preparing to file for an initial public offering in the United States that could make the Shenzhen-headquartered portable power specialist one of the most high-profile mainland technology firms to seek equity funding on American exchanges, according to people familiar with the matter. The company is working with financial advisers and is exploring a share sale that could raise several hundred million dollars, signalling growing investor appetite for clean energy and battery technology stocks despite volatility in global markets.
The draft IPO plan represents a strategic pivot for EcoFlow as it seeks broader capital access and enhanced global recognition. Backed by HSG, the firm formerly known as Sequoia Capital China, EcoFlow has grown rapidly by tapping into surging demand for portable and home battery solutions used for outdoor recreation, emergency backup and renewable energy integration. Market participants suggest that the public listing could value the company at billions of dollars, though final pricing and timing remain under consideration.
EcoFlow’s potential move to a US exchange underscores the increasingly international ambitions of Chinese technology manufacturers. While many domestic companies opt to list on local boards such as Shanghai’s STAR Market or Shenzhen’s ChiNext, EcoFlow’s planned New York or Nasdaq debut highlights a shift among select innovators seeking to capitalise on deeper liquidity and global investor bases. Industry analysts note that the IPO could open doors for other clean energy and hardware enterprises from Asia if executed successfully.
Founded in 2017 by former engineers from the drone industry, EcoFlow has established itself as a leading global supplier of portable power stations and energy storage systems. Its product lines include the DELTA and RIVER series, which have gained traction among consumers and businesses looking to reduce reliance on fossil fuel generators. The company’s expansion has also been punctuated by new product launches and partnerships in major retail chains, broadening its footprint in the United States and Europe.
Industry observers say EcoFlow’s performance in the US market will be closely watched by investors assessing the health of hardware-oriented technology firms amidst broader economic uncertainty. Portable power and battery technology have seen increasing interest as climate change concerns boost demand for resilient and sustainable energy solutions. Analysts point to strong year-on-year sales growth through online and in-store channels, including collaborations with national warehouse clubs, as evidence of the company’s commercial momentum.
The proposed IPO is expected to involve at least $300 million in primary share sales, though people familiar with the discussions caution that the figure could shift based on market conditions and investor feedback. An offering of this scale would position EcoFlow alongside a select group of cleantech and energy storage names that have reached public market debuts in recent years. Executives and bankers are said to be conducting roadshows and investor engagements to gauge demand and refine the company’s messaging ahead of filing.
Financial advisers engaged by EcoFlow are reportedly preparing registration statements and compliance documentation required by US regulators. This process typically involves scrutiny of business models, revenue figures and risk factors, and the company will need to articulate its strategy for scaling production, managing supply chains and navigating potential geopolitical tensions affecting Chinese-linked firms listed abroad. If cleared by regulators, the IPO could take place in the first half of next year, subject to market receptivity and pricing dynamics.
Investors familiar with EcoFlow’s trajectory describe the company’s leadership as focused on diversifying revenue streams through both consumer-facing products and partnerships with enterprise clients. The product portfolio emphasises modular and scalable energy solutions that can serve residential, commercial and recreational needs. Market research suggests that consumer interest in backup power and off-grid energy has been buoyed by extreme weather events and grid reliability concerns in developed markets, further enhancing appetite for resilient technologies.
Critics caution that hardware companies face challenges maintaining margins and growth rates as competition intensifies and component costs fluctuate. They note that EcoFlow will need to demonstrate sustained profitability and efficient supply-chain management to satisfy public investors, particularly in an environment where tech valuations are more scrutinised than in prior years. Effective communication of long-term strategy and risk mitigation will be key to fostering confidence among institutional and retail shareholders.
