The partnership aims to develop innovative, green and technology-enabled infrastructure.

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) signed a partnership agreement to support venture capital (VC) in emerging markets in Asia, 26 June 2025.

They will invest in a portfolio of VC funds to develop innovative technologies and business models for green and technology-enabled infrastructure in Asia’s emerging economies.
