Invisible & Innovative Technology (Asia) Limited

Invisible & Innovative Technology (Asia) Limited, also known as Invisible Environmental Technology, or simply Invisible Tech, is a tech start-up that focuses on achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by transforming wood waste into sellable technology assets through a unique Environmental-Social-Governance (ESG) ecosystem. Invisible Tech produces educational and audio tech products, such as an upcycled audio speaker, a STEM audio DIY kit, and solar-powered audio devices, with upcycled wood waste materials. We use technology to give them new life in a meaningful and impactful way in the tech education and lifestyle sectors. Invisible Tech uses CityU patented technology for various self-developed design and technologies that we have integrated into our ESG products. By applying leading technology in our innovative upcycled products, we aim to have a positive social impact.

In addition to hardware production, Invisible Tech is devoted to developing an online ESG digital platform, called the Invisible Eco-Hub, to track material flow from wood waste to upcycled products. By enabling transparency of ownership transfers for parties ranging from wood waste generators to end-users through the an omni-channel strategy in a gamification and technological approach, the Invisible Eco-Hub also serves as a portal to facilitate online education content, patent licensing, a marketplace, and the issuance of ESG-certified reports.

Invisible Tech has been recognised by various reputable organisations, including the CityU HK Tech 300 Angel Fund, the Hong Kong University Student Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition 2021 (first runner-up), the HKTDC IP Hatch Innovation Challenge 2021 (awardee), the HKU MEICOM Tang Chui Wai Hing Project Prize 2020-21 (awardee), and the IDA Design Award (Bronze).
