Friday night, co-founder of StartupsHK Casey Lau (@casey_lau) presented a class for General Assembly at The Hive on the startup scene here in Hong Kong. Surprisingly well attended for a Friday night, the class audience was made up of a good mix of people from the financial sector, new entrepreneurs to Hong Kong and local startups.

The class was successful enough that it will be turned into a monthly offering by General Assembly in Hong Kong so if you missed it, you can sign up here to get information on the next session.

Moderated by Casey Lau – the session energized the audience and some great feedback and ideas were exchanged. This event was so successful we’ll be planning another one in the near future as well as a lead-in to our main event StartupsHK presents Angel Investor Forum 2013 in March.
