About Creative IP Farm Foundation

Creative IP Farm Foundation  is a Hong Kong non‑profit organisation founded by entrepreneurs from the marketing and promotions sector. With cultural promotion at its core, IP Farm builds Culture Stage platforms as springboards for creative transformation and market connection; we catalyse cross‑sector, cross‑arts and cross‑industry collaboration, and advocate the use of intellectual property (IP) as a strategic tool for creative business and industry upgrading. Our mission is to ensure creativity is seen, experienced and converted across diverse cultural stages and real‑world settings, while presenting Hong Kong culture in innovative and engaging ways.

IP Farm initiates a diversified portfolio of programmes—including exhibitions, signature events, education programmes, business delegations and the cross‑sector programme scheme —providing creators, curators, brands and industry professionals with platforms for exchange and collaboration, and fostering in‑depth cross‑cultural and cross‑sector interaction. In parallel, we advance education and IP literacy to broaden public perspectives on creativity and to strengthen links among different disciplines across the creative ecosystem.

In addition, About Culture Marketing, IP Farm’s promotions services arm, provides cultural marketing and go‑to‑market support, including cultural intervention strategy, integrated marketing and communications. Operating through collaborative models, it actively participates in local creative projects to drive the sustainable development and commercialisation of Hong Kong culture.

Guided by the principle of “market‑led, Policy-oriented, industry‑supported,” the Foundation is dedicated to advancing Hong Kong’s cultural sector and the growth of its creative economy.

Our Vision

Make culture the shared stage powering the creative industries, enabling creativity to flow across diverse cultures and convert on its own terms; connect public resources, industry, and markets to
build a sustainable creative economy and position Hong Kong as a creative capital.

Our Mission

  • Use culture as the stage (Culture Stage) to connect creativity, audiences, and the market for visibility, experience, and conversion.
  • Advocate and apply IP strategy to raise literacy and drive creative business and industry upgrading.
  • Enable cross-sector collaboration to build a resilient ecosystem.
  • Content building and knowledge transfer: curate and codify global case studies of creative‑cultural expression to deepen understanding and practical capability among the public and industry.
  • Through About Culture Marketing—our cultural intervention promotions service—we deliver integrated marketing and communications solutions that drive the promotion and commercialisation of local creative and cultural projects.

Core Values

  • Culture is a force: We believe culture brings people together, opens contexts, and drives transformation.
  • Stage thinking: We use culture as the stage for creativity to debut, prototype, grow, and reach the market.
  • IP stewardship: We respect and leverage IP, balancing protection, assetisation, and sustainability.
  • Cross-sector co-creation: Public–private and cross‑industry collaboration to iterate solutions with greater impact and market adoption.
