Hong Kong’s sustained commitment to infrastructure investment, economic growth, and integration with the GBA makes it the ideal base for Jacobs to scale our impact across Asia.
Jacobs, a Fortune 500 global leader in science-based consulting and technical advisory, is deepening its presence in Hong Kong after more than five decades of operation. Recent efforts focus on building programme management capability to oversee transformative projects set to redefine the city’s future.
Hong Kong: A Regional Growth Hub
With operations spanning over 40 countries, Jacobs brings expertise across the full lifecycle of strategy, design, construction, operations, and maintenance, supporting governments and businesses across water and environment, life sciences, advanced manufacturing, and critical infrastructure. In Hong Kong, the company is positioning itself as a catalyst for innovation and regional integration.
Jacobs Senior Director of Operations Rupert Leung said, “Hong Kong’s sustained commitment to infrastructure investment, economic growth, and integration with the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) makes it the ideal base for Jacobs to scale our impact across Asia.”
He added that Jacobs sees growing opportunities in programme delivery, digital advisory, health infrastructure, and sustainable urban development. “By combining our global expertise with local insights, our Hong Kong office delivers innovative solutions that tackle complex challenges and strengthen long-term client partnerships.”
Delivering Projects that Shape the City
Jacobs has played a key role in some of Hong Kong’s most significant infrastructure projects, including the Shatin to Central Link, Kwun Tong Line Extension, and the Hong Kong International Airport expansion. The company also leads in sustainability, having helped deliver the city’s first high-rise Modular Integrated Construction (MiC) building.
The expansion of its programme management team will further enhance its ability to manage complex, multi-agency initiatives. “This investment strengthens our capacity to support complex, transformative infrastructure programmes, ensuring seamless delivery across multiple government agencies and asset classes. It also underscores our commitment to supporting the city’s dynamic growth,” Leung explained.
For Jacobs, InvestHK has been a trusted partner throughout its expansion journey. “Their support — from providing market intelligence to connecting us with public and private stakeholders — has been invaluable. They have helped us enhance our presence, nurture talent, and accelerate growth in Hong Kong’s ecosystem,” he concluded.
