<p>"After over a century of reporting on China, SCMP is proud to launch a new platform that offers our global audience a window on the rapid innovation in this part of the world," said SCMP Chief Executive Officer <span class="xn-person">Gary Liu</span>.

"Today, China's rapidly-evolving tech sector is spearheaded by cutting-edge innovation and home-grown tech titans that are projected to reshape the industry.

<p>"After over a century of reporting on China, SCMP is proud to launch a new platform that offers our global audience a window on the rapid innovation in this part of the world," said SCMP Chief Executive Officer <span class="xn-person">Gary Liu</span>. "Abacus and its editorial team will deliver breadth and depth of technology coverage, and a plurality of views to serve the curiosities of our readers. This new product will provide an 'expert's take' on the growing global influence of China's tech giants and new upstarts."</p>
<p>"Thanks to China's local culture, the sheer size of its population, and government regulations, China's tech scene has evolved in ways very different from the rest of the world," said Abacus Executive Producer Ravi Hiranand. "For example, the vast spread of mobile payment and QR codes has no parallel anywhere else. Gone are the days when every Chinese trend had a Western counterpart. And that's where Abacus comes in: our goal is to share what's happening in <span class="xn-location">China</span> and why it matters to the rest of the world."</p>
<p>"In the past, China's primary role in the global tech industry was manufacturing products for global companies. Times have changed," said <span class="xn-person">Malcolm Ong</span>, Head of Product at SCMP and Abacus. "Today, China's rapidly-evolving tech sector is spearheaded by cutting-edge innovation and home-grown tech titans that are projected to reshape the industry. We built Abacus from the ground up with a modern, bold user experience to show readers how this industry is impacting the globe."</p>
