William To and the team at PMQ have worked hard to turn the general populous onto design. In a city where talent is ripe, but rents are high, PMQ offers invaluable nurturing  and incubation space for those on the first rung of the business ladder. One of the most successful initiatives to promote local creative culture while conserving heritage, PMQ has attracted millions of visitors since its launch in April 2014 and is a crucial step in further developing the Hong Kong creative scene.
