Invest Hong Kong (Chinese: 投資推廣署) is the department of the Hong Kong SAR Government responsible for Foreign Direct Investment, supporting overseas businesses to set up and expand in Hong Kong. Founded on 1 July 2000, its first Director General was Michael Rowse.

The Investment Officers are organized into nine specialist sector teams covering Hong Kong's four pillar industries and six new growth sectors: Business & Professional Services, Consumer Products, Creative Industries, Financial Services, FinTech, Information & Communications Technology, Innovation & Technology, Tourism & Transport, and hospitality, Infrastructure & Advanced Manufacturing.^{[citation needed]}

Invest HK is headed by the Director-General of Investment Promotion who reports to the Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development.^{[citation needed]}

The current Director-General of Investment Promotion is Alpha Lau (Chinese: 劉凱旋).^[1] Under Lau's leadership, the agency has focused on promoting Hong Kong as a location for corporate headquarters, family offices, and technology companies.^[2] For the first half of 2024, InvestHK reported assisting over 300 companies in establishing or expanding operations in Hong Kong, with investments totaling approximately HK$38 billion.^[3]

The former Director-General of Investment Promotion was Stephen Phillips.^[4] In August 2022, Phillips went to Australia and New Zealand to market Hong Kong's business attractions.^[4] In November 2022, despite the 0+3 restrictions for inbound travelers, Phillips said that "Hong Kong is well and truly back open for business."^[5]

In March 2022, Phillips claimed that the National Security Law was not a big concern for companies while investing in Hong Kong.^[6]

Hong Kong FinTech Week is an international fintech event, organized by Investhk; It is held in Hong Kong (and Shenzhen).^[7]

Hong Kong FinTech Week brings together fintech communities from the East and the West that seek to expand their businesses to Hong Kong, mainland China and the Asia-Pacific region.^[7]

In September 2023, SCMP reported that although Invest HK was a sponsor of the 2023 Gay Games, it had not provided support to the event.^[8]
