Direct Drive Tech has successfully passed its listing hearing with the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and is now moving forward with plans for a Main Board initial public offering (IPO) in Hong Kong. According to KrASIA, the company aims to issue up to approximately 122 million H shares as part of its public offering.

CITIC Securities has been appointed as the sole sponsor for this IPO, supporting Direct Drive Tech through the listing process. The clearing of the hearing occurred in the final week of June, marking a key milestone for the company’s capital market ambitions.

This development is of particular interest to Japanese investors monitoring regional tech IPOs, as Hong Kong remains a critical hub for listings in Asia and provides exposure to innovative technology firms expanding their market presence.
