Silicon Dragon Hong Kong kicked off at Cyberport HK with a streaming Twitter feed of #SiliconDragonHK running on erva’s AerTweet widget.
AerTweet was shown on stage on a large LED wall as the presentations and panels took place, allowing the audience to send in their comments and questions.
Silicon Dragon Ventures was formed in 2010 as a venture capital and entrepreneur network spanning the leading Silicon Valleys of the world from Sand Hill Road to Tsinghua in Beijing to Yangpu in Shanghai to Fusionopolis in Singapore to Whitefield in Bangalore and Silicon Alley in New York.
Through news, events, consulting and research worldwide, Silicon Dragon provides unique insights and a grass-roots framework to better understand and evaluate the world’s innovation centers from a global perspective.
The 10,000-strong Silicon Dragon network includes entrepreneurs, executives of emerging companies, deal makers, venture capitalists, angel investors, investment bankers and legal, accounting and management consulting practitioners.
This network encompasses a broad spectrum of market sectors internationally in clean energy, bio-medical, cloud computing, gaming, e-ecommerce, social networking, luxury brands and retail.
The technology behind AerTweet is designed to support high profile campaigns flawlessly. Aerva allows marketers to moderate tweets, detect fraud, rank retweets, report metrics and display tweets through a number of custom parameters allowing for many animation and style options.
The next event in the Silicon Dragon series will take place in Beijing.
