IXON Named Top 8 Finalist in Prestigious PKU-Cambridge Global Pitch Competition Hong Kong Finals

IXON has officially secured a spot in the Top 8 Open Group finalists of the prestigious Peking University HSBC Business School (PHBS) – Cambridge Judge Business School (CJBS) Global Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition 2026. This elite deep-tech arena proves that eliminating the global cold chain is finally recognized as a critical, hard-science challenge on par with AI and biophotonics.

Unlike typical startup contests, this competition acts as a highly selective global incubator connecting founders with over 200 top-tier venture capital and sovereign wealth funds. Surviving its intense vetting process validates the immense commercial scalability of our Advanced Sous-vide Aseptic Packaging (ASAP) technology.

Hong Kong startups have a formidable legacy in this tournament, with local innovators like LaSense Technology (2022 global champion) and E3A Healthcare (2023 global champion) capturing the top title. These top-tier Hong Kong alumni have achieved massive commercial success, contributing to the over US$140 million (1 billion RMB) in post-competition funding secured by advancing teams to date.

The regional showdown takes place on September 22 at One North in Yuen Long, where we will pitch to a heavyweight panel featuring executives from the Hong Kong Investment Corporation (HKIC), HKTDC, and Sino Group. Winning this round secures the exclusive right to represent Hong Kong at the Global Finals in Shenzhen this December.

"This competition isn't just about winning an award; it is about securing the strategic leverage to rewrite how the world eats," says Felix Cheung, Founder and CEO of IXON. "With the backing of this immense global platform, we are ready to scale our ASAP technology alongside multinational giants and make the cold chain obsolete."

IXON 成功突圍而出，正式入圍「北大滙豐–劍橋嘉治全球創新創業大賽 2026 — 香港分站賽」公開組最後八強。這項頂尖的深科技賽事，印證了「免冷鏈保鮮」已正式被國際視為與 AI 及生物光電同等重要的硬科學挑戰。

有別於一般的創業比賽，該大賽是一個極具指標性的全球孵化平台，直接將創辦人與超過 200 家頂尖創投及主權基金聯繫起來。能夠在這場激烈的篩選中脫穎而出，充分驗證了 IXON 先進低溫真空無菌包裝（ASAP）技術巨大的商業拓展潛力。

香港初創企業在此大賽中擁有輝煌往績，如朗思科技（2022 年全球總冠軍）及 E3A Healthcare（2023 年全球總冠軍）均曾代表香港勇奪最高殊榮。這些頂尖的香港校友在賽後均獲得巨大成功，帶動歷屆晉級團隊至今累計斬獲超過 10 億元人民幣（約 1.4 億美元）的融資。

香港站總決賽將於 9 月 22 日假元朗朗壹廣場舉行，屆時我們將向香港投資管理有限公司（HKIC）、香港貿發局及信和集團等政商界領袖進行實戰路演。若能順利奪下桂冠，IXON 將獲得代表香港出戰今年 12 月深圳全球總決賽的獨家資格。

IXON 創辦人兼行政總裁張文浩表示：「這場比賽不僅是為了一座獎盃，更是為了爭取重塑全球食品供應鏈的戰略籌碼。在這個龐大的國際平台加持下，我們已經準備好與跨國巨頭攜手，全面擴展 ASAP 技術規模，讓傳統冷鏈從此成為歷史。」
