Looks like Kickstarter will start its HK specific business soon.
Gives local entrepreneurs a chance to easily get access to the platform without having to jump through hoops of incorporating offshore in the US etc.
Also, afraid that it will open up a whole new breed of offshoring in Hong Kong (may be good business for those who are into incorporating overseas companies in HK) where small businesses from around the world will rush to get a virtual presence in HK to bypass their local tax regimes.
