Ms Christina Hau, Chief Executive Officer of Champion REIT, shared, “Three Garden Road attaining WiredScore Platinum certification speaks volumes about our embrace of intelligent practices and cutting-edge technologies. The property was the first smart building in Hong Kong recognised by the Hong Kong Institute of Architects for its innovative and outstanding architectural design upon its completion. In pursuit of excellence, the Trust maintains a steadfast dedication to integrating smart features into the building’s operational management and facilitating its sustainable development, which is highly valued by our key financial institution and multinational corporation tenants.”

This recognition not only testifies the innovative and forward-thinking approach that Champion REIT brings to their real estate assets, but also highlights their commitment to ensuring that their occupiers have access to world-class, reliable, and future-proofed digital amenities that truly sets them apart in today's fast-evolving landscape.”
