On the eve of the Global Unicorn Summit hosted by Hong Kong Ta Kung Wen Wei Media Group, Cyberport — the core park of Hong Kong's innovation and technology ecosystem — is stepping onto the international stage in its role as an "AI accelerator": the park is home to 2,400 companies, including 10 unicorns with a combined valuation of over HK$170 billion; corporate financing has topped HK$67.6 billion, and more than 15 companies have gone public after settling in Cyberport, raising over HK$17.6 billion. This ecosystem built to connect local, mainland and overseas markets is precisely the starting point of the global strategy of eSign.AI, one of the summit's leading unicorns.

Two Decades in Trust Services: From No. 1 in Mainland China to Hong Kong's Digital Infrastructure

A standout star in the Cyberport ecosystem, eSign.AI's globalization did not start from scratch. Founded in 2002, the company has spent more than 20 years in enterprise trust services, with a latest valuation of about US$1 billion, ranking first in mainland China with a 35% market share, and becoming the first e-signature SaaS provider to connect to "iAM Smart", the Hong Kong SAR government's digital identity platform.

This trust capability is translating into measurable scale: the platform handles 30 million daily signatures, and AI calls exceed 10 million per day. Through deep integration with Hong Kong's Corporate Digital Identity (CorpID), eSign.AI has formally landed its technology services in Hong Kong, delivering legally valid and highly compliant solutions to local and international markets.

Product Portfolio: eSign.AI and VeriAgent.AI Target the Trust Gap in Digital Transformation

eSign.AI's core portfolio — the eSign.AI e-signature platform and the VeriAgent.AI verification agent — addresses the most critical "trust" challenge in enterprise digital transformation: verifiable identity, verifiable signing, and traceable behavior. As AI agents enter business workflows at scale, trust infrastructure is becoming a prerequisite for enterprise-grade AI adoption.

Sailing Abroad Through the Ecosystem: A Top-100 Roadshow at SITE 2026

For global expansion, eSign.AI works in deep synergy with Cyberport in a "park empowers, enterprise gives back" model. Through Cyberport's "Four-Network Linkage" (enterprise, investor, technology and professional-services networks), eSign.AI ranked among the top 100 roadshow startups at SITE 2026 Thailand, and leveraged Cyberport's government and overseas networks to connect with digital identity and trust-service institutions across Southeast Asia — including Thailand's depa, Malaysia's MDEC and Indonesia's Telkom University — opening a critical regional market-access window.

The strategic value of Hong Kong as a springboard is now clear: through Cyberport's Market Development Support Scheme (MDSS), eSign.AI gained exhibition subsidies and marketing support to build its brand internationally, while the coordinated go-global service helps it identify local market needs more precisely and package itself under the "Hong Kong brand", significantly lowering the barrier to overseas entry.

Outlook: Making Trust Services the Public Infrastructure of the AI Era

As Cyberport continues to align with the national "15th Five-Year Plan" and deepen its AI+ industrial layout, eSign.AI's next step is clear: evolve traditional software systems into AI agent platforms and upgrade e-signature and digital identity services into the trust infrastructure of the AI era. Setting out from Hong Kong to claim a key position on the global digital map — that is eSign.AI's answer for globalization beyond unicorn status.
