Techpacific looks to the future

In a 21,000 square foot space in Cosco Tower, Hong Kong, the sound of hammers and saws mingles with the tapping of computer keyboards, and the latest pop tunes filter through the static of a cheap radio. In one corner, decked out in jackets bearing the company logo, sits a team from Gorilla Asia, a marketing and conference-organizing company. In another nook sits the team from Softpub, a web design and development company, and in another, a group called Linux Center, which provides Linux software solutions.
