This summer, indulge in a refreshing ice pop from Lola’s

Pops, bring the whole family for gluten-free cuisine and

playtime at Choice Cooperative, plant an edible garden

with Time To Grow and do a detox cleanse with Detox

Punch. In this issue, meet nine Food Entrepreneurs who

reveal what it takes to launch and run a successful food

business in Hong Kong.

As part of this issue’s food theme, we’ll examine other

aspects of food businesses such as HK’s food delivery services, Groupon as a

service to help start-ups, food trends around the world, interviews with top

food bloggers in HK and what’s missing from the HK food scene.

No matter what business you’re running, marketing is an essential

component. On pages 38 - 43, Hong Kong’s marketing and sales experts share

their advice on how to build remarkable business, optimize your website for SEO

and the four not-so-obvious mistakes that most startups and entrepreneurs

make. All these writers teach at General Assembly, and you can catch their

classes this summer and fall.

It’s been an exciting couple of months since we launched this May, and we’re

grateful to the Hong Kong supportive and engaged startup community. We

had a wonderful launch party at Garage Society with over 130 attendees (see

photos on next page!) and heard from many of you post-launch. Since our first

issue, we’re proud to say that we’ve more than tripled the number of magazine

copies and you can get a hold of your own copy of Jumpstart in nearly every

entrepreneurial corner of HK. You can find out exactly where to get your copy

on page 46.

Have a great summer and enjoy working, cooking, and, of course, eating!
