Dear Mr. Cheung

We write to invite your association members to become affiliate members of HKPC SME Centre at free of charge.
SME Centre was set up with funding from the Innovation and Technology Fund of HKSAR Government to enhance competitiveness of local SMEs.

It also regularly organizes various types of seminars and workshops as well as networking events for members and service providers to strengthen their business connections. Details can be found in the attached.
Affiliate membership is normally offered to SMEs at an annual fee of HK$500. Members are entitled to the following benefits:
We have enlisted the help of legal and accounting firms to provide a free hotline service to our Centre members for addressing their enquries.
Regular clinic sessions are held when, by appointment, Centre members can discuss in private their business problems and issues with our consultants and expert partners. The sessions are designed to cover a wide range of business functions.

Affiliate members are entitled to a 20% discount against SME Centreˇs fee-based activities.
