In today’s fast-moving workplace, how we meet, collaborate and communicate has changed more in the last few years than perhaps in the previous two decades. Remote work, hybrid teams, large format displays, immersive environments — all this means businesses must choose their technology partners carefully. I want to walk you through one Hong Kong company that has carved a strong niche in this world: Ultra Active Technology Limited (UAT). I’ll share what they do, why it matters, and what to look for if you’re evaluating an AV/collaboration systems partner.
Company Overview
Founded in 1997, Ultra Active Technology Limited began with a focus on video conferencing solutions in Hong Kong. Over time they expanded into a full-service system integrator: audio-visual (AV), video collaboration, large-format displays, central control, resource scheduling and more. From what I found, their address is Room E, 11/F, Dragon Industrial Building, 93 King Lam Street, Lai Chi Kok, Kowloon, Hong Kong.
Their mission, as I read it, is built around “Provide Best” – meaning best quality, best value and best service. In my experience working with businesses evaluating AV integrators, that kind of commitment matters a lot. You can have great hardware, but if integration, service and support are weak, you’ll regret it. UAT positions itself as covering that full spectrum.

Core Services & Solutions
What exactly does UAT offer? Let’s break it down into the major buckets.
Audio-Visual Systems Integration
One of their core strengths is integrating AV systems end-to-end: design, installation, programming, training, and managed services. If your boardroom needs a new audio system, or your auditorium needs a full AV upgrade, this is the kind of partner you’re looking for. I’ve seen firms that just sell equipment, then you’re left coordinating multiple parties — having one integrator simplifies things.
Video Conferencing & Collaboration Solutions
UAT was an early mover in video conferencing in Hong Kong. Their profile states they delivered “the first cutting-edge video conferencing solution to Hong Kong”. As hybrid work becomes the norm, this capability is critical. If your team spans multiple locations or you host internal/external virtual meetings, you want someone who understands not just hardware but user experience, bandwidth, integration with your IT systems.
Large Format Displays & LED Video Walls
Another hallmark: large-format displays, LED walls, video walls. On their site they list “LCD Video Wall”, “High Performance LED Video Walls”, etc. These solutions aren’t just for show—though they look great—they’re also about communication in large spaces (lobbies, auditoriums) and immersive experiences. I once visited a company lobby where multiple video walls displayed real-time analytics, brand messaging and ambient visuals. If I were picking someone to build that experience, I’d want their depth of expertise.
Central Control Systems & Resource Scheduling
One more important service: systems that tie it all together. Control systems, room scheduling, wireless presentation, integration of audio, video, data and security. Countless times I’ve seen meetings interrupted because the system was complicated or equipment wasn’t synced properly. A good integrator will reduce friction. Based on what I read, UAT is focused on this integration side.
Industry Verticals & Use Cases
It’s not enough to just offer the equipment; knowing the customer context matters. UAT serves multiple verticals:
Banking & Finance
They mention “World-class International Financial Institution”, “Global Top Ranked Bank Office, Multi-purpose floor” among their case studies. In the finance world, reliability, confidentiality, uptime and premium user experience are non-negotiable. If they can handle that, it’s a good sign.
Government & Education
They list “Government” and “Education” as clients. Lecture theatres, auditoriums, public sector AV systems bring different demands: long lifecycle, high integration with other systems, sometimes tighter regulation.
Retail & Hospitality
One of the case study segments they mention is “Retail – enhances shopping experience” (on the website). In retail, visuals matter, brand experience matters, you need dynamic display solutions with strong content management and ease of updating. UAT appears to address that too.
Key Differentiators & Certifications
What sets UAT apart from dozens of AV integrators? Here are some aspects I found noteworthy:
Certifications
They hold ISO 9001:2008, ISO 14001:2004, and OHSAS 18001 certifications (at least as of older documents). Those are good signals of quality, environmental management and occupational health/safety processes.
AVIXA APEx Certified
UAT is listed as certified by AVIXA (Audio Visual and Integrated Experience Association) as “APEx – AV Provider of Excellence”. Having vendor/industry accreditation helps.
Strong Vendor Partnerships & End-to-End Service
On their website they list partners such as Poly, Panasonic, Cisco, Logitech, Barco, etc. The idea is that they are not just plugging boxes, but integrating full systems from design through installation through maintenance. That full lifecycle matters a lot.
Company Culture & Awards
One statement in their materials stood out: UAT emphasized its employee education levels, work-life balance initiatives, and being a founding member of the “Caring SME Alliance”. As a buyer, I like to see that the integrator treats their people well — often that correlates with better service. Also, they were given an SME Special Award by HKMA. These aren’t trivial points — they reflect how the company positions itself and how it wants to be perceived.
Challenges & Future Outlook
No company is without challenge. Based on what I found and what I infer:
Changing Collaboration & Work Trends
The move to hybrid work, distributed teams, remote meetings means integrators must handle more flexible spaces, wireless presentation, robust video-audio networks, cloud integration. UAT will need to keep pace with those trends.
Expanding into New Verticals
The company has indicated expansion into property security and advertising media markets. That means new competitors, new technology, new service models.
Technological Pace & Competition
AV technology evolves quickly. LED walls, immersive spaces, digital signage, AI+AV, edge computing, IoT integration — keeping ahead takes investment and expertise. Also, many IT companies are moving into AV integration. The competition is higher.
Why Choose Ultra Active Technology Limited?
If I were advising a company in Hong Kong/Asia considering an AV systems integrator, here’s why I might suggest UAT:
-
They have a long track record (since 1997) which means experience and stability.
-
They offer full life-cycle service: design → install → train → manage.
-
They hold major certifications and partnerships, which shows professionalism.
-
They serve large, demanding clients (finance, government) which implies they know how to handle complexity.
-
Their culture and recognition suggest they aim for high standards, not just lowest cost.
-
If your project involves video walls, high-performance displays, integrated meeting spaces or collab rooms, they seem equipped.
From my own experience evaluating integrators, you’ll want to ask: What is your service level after install? How do you minimise downtime? How are you future-proofing systems for hybrid work? UAT seems to tick many of those boxes (based on available info).
