Hello everyone, this is Cissy from Hong Kong, your #techAsia host this week. I was at LEAP East yesterday, as the Riyadh-based technology conference made its Asia debut in the city. More than 450 exhibitors, mostly from mainland China, Hong Kong and Saudi Arabia, as well as some from Europe, took part in the event.
