The global transition to a hydrogen economy is no longer a theoretical debate—it is a race for scalable, efficient technology. This month, BioH2 Tech reached a significant milestone in that race. Out of thousands of applicants from around the world, BioH2 Tech has been selected as a Global Top 30 Startup in the JUMPSTARTER 2025 Global Pitch Competition, initiated by the Alibaba Entrepreneurs Fund.
This recognition isn't just an award; it is a validation of our mission to bridge the gap between world-class laboratory research and industrial-scale decarbonization.
Disrupting the "Business as Usual" in Energy
What caught the judges' attention? It is our approach to the "Hydrogen Paradox." Traditionally, producing green hydrogen from waste has been energy-intensive and expensive. Under the leadership of Professor Zhao Jun—ranked among the World’s Top 2% Scientists—we have changed the fundamental chemistry of the process.
Our proprietary $180^{\circ}C$ catalyst allows us to produce high-purity hydrogen at a fraction of the temperature of industry standards ($700^{\circ}C–1200^{\circ}C$). This means 40% less energy consumed and a path to radical cost leadership.
The Power of Proof: Watch the Technology in Action
At BioH2, we believe that deep tech must be seen to be believed. Our technology has been rigorously tested within the Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) ecosystem, supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC).
Before we scale to our 2026 pilot programs, we invite you to watch the laboratory demonstration that is catching the eyes of investors and policy-makers globally.
“Science is best seen in action. Watch the demonstration of our proprietary catalytic reforming process at the HKBU laboratory.”
In the Spotlight: Leading the Conversation on Clean Energy
Our selection for JUMPSTARTER 2025 is the latest in a series of milestones that have captured the attention of major industrial and mainstream media. Our breakthrough in low-temperature hydrogen production has been featured by leading outlets across the region, highlighting the growing demand for scalable green tech solutions.
BioH2 Tech has been featured in:
- Oriental Daily (東方日報): Highlighting our academic-to-industrial transition.
- Wen Wei Po (文匯報): Featuring Professor Zhao Jun’s "Top 2%" scientific ranking and the 180°C breakthrough.
- HKBU News: Recognition of our NSFC-supported R&D success.
- Ta Kung Pao (大公報): Focusing on our contribution to the Greater Bay Area "Dual-Carbon" goals.

A Vision for the Greater Bay Area and Beyond
Being recognized as a Top 30 Global Startup provides BioH2 Tech with the platform to accelerate our Roadmap to 2030. By leveraging the unique R&D environment of Hong Kong and the engineering speed of Shenzhen, we are positioning ourselves as the "Green Engine" of the Greater Bay Area’s Dual-Carbon goals.
For our partners and future investors, this selection is a signal: BioH2 is no longer just a laboratory breakthrough; we are a commercially viable solution for a waste-free energy future.
