The city’s antitrust regulator, the Competition Commission, has taken five information technology companies to the tribunal for alleged bid rigging involving a tender issued by a social services organisation, the Hong Kong Young Women’s Christian Association, in July 2016.
The hearing is expected to last for 19 days with 12 witnesses set to testify.
The commission’s complaint stems from a YWCA tender for the installation of a new server system based on technology from Nutanix Hong Kong.
The five firms involved in the case are Nutanix and four IT suppliers – BT Hong Kong, which is part of British telecoms giant BT, SiS International, Innovix Distribution and Tech-21 Systems.
