The Cyberport AI Supercomputing Centre (AISC) is Hong Kong’s government-backed AI compute facility, and the AI Subsidy Scheme lowers the cost of using it.

What the AISC is
The AI Supercomputing Centre (AISC) is a Cyberport-operated, government-backed compute facility that commenced first-phase operation in December 2024, with computing power reported at around 1,300 PFLOPS initially and scaling toward 3,000 PFLOPS. It exists to give Hong Kong’s research and enterprise users access to large-scale AI compute.
How the subsidy works
The AI Subsidy Scheme subsidises eligible users up to 70% of the AISC service list price. So the AISC is the facility, and the AISS is the funding that lowers the cost of using it. Important: these are programmes a business applies for directly with the relevant Hong Kong authority. dgm is an independent AI-integration agency — it is not a registered or approved vendor of any of these schemes (none of them operates a vendor registry), so nothing here implies dgm can secure or deliver a grant-funded engagement. dgm can help scope and build the AI project; eligibility, approval and any claim rest with you and the agency.
Who it suits
The AISC suits users with real, large-scale AI workloads — training or heavy inference. For most businesses adopting an off-the-shelf AI tool, a managed model API is simpler and the AISC is not the relevant route. Support levels, caps, eligibility and round status change — confirm the current details on the official programme page before relying on them.
Where dgm fits
dgm is an independent integration partner that helps Hong Kong businesses adopt osFoundry — scoping a first use case, handling the build, and connecting AI to the systems you already run. dgm is independent of osFoundry’s maker (OS LLC) and has no completed client integrations yet, so everything described here is a service offered, not a past result. If you want to scope a practical first project, dgm can help you map it out.
