Wearable IoT World launch IoT accelerator in Hong Kong

US-based Wearable IoT World has launched the US-Pan Asia IoT Superhighway, an Internet of Things (IoT) and "emerging technologies" accelerator in Hong Kong, after it raised $4.5m, led by China-based Radiant Venture Capital. This will help early-stage Asian start-ups to develop wearable and IoT technologies. Wearable IoT World also announced a partnership with Hong Kong's Cyberport Management Company, which will house Wearable IoT World's labs and offices. 

The wearables market is taking off globally and cities like Hong Kong and Shenzhen are expected to prove rich fishing grounds for start-ups dedicated to this field. Photo: SCMP Pictures
