\u201c<\/span>Computime\u2019s story began 45 years ago in Hong Kong, when we first introduced an innovative line of digital timing devices to a major automobile company,\u201d says Dr. Owyang King.<\/p>\n

\u201cSoon enough, Computime\u2019s inventions were progressively applied to car dashboards and home appliances, later temperature control arena around the world. We have successfully developed a technology edge and transformed into a solution provider to serve the growing demand in the electronic manufacturing services (\u201cEMS\u201d) industry and Internet of Things (\u201cIoT\u201d) arena,\u201d he adds, speaking of how Computime filled is niche and created a brand name well worth admiring.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Building on Reputation<\/h3>\n

\u201cBeing proud to be a local Hong Kong growing enterprise, in the year of 2005, we launched our own brand SALUS in setting our foot in UK and the rest of Europe, later in North America, including the US and Canada, to leverage our leading edge technology and innovation,\u201d Dr. King says.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of our most remarkable milestones is being listed on the main board in Hong Kong Stock Exchange in 2007, where our effort and achievement in the industry were being highly regarded and recognised, and our exposure was spread broader and wider than before.<\/p>\n

Today, we are transforming from being a traditional EMS manufacturer to a technology solution provider to secure a more profitable and sustainable future for the Company. We are positive and confident that our innovation will uplift everyday living to another level.\u201d<\/p>\n
