Yes, Knowledge Tower will need to overcome similar challenges as it is about 42km (~50min drive) from city center. When market conditions were better, the rental rates differential between city center and city fringe location may still entice companies to locate their tech team in city fringe areas. Unfortunately, the office oversupply situation means that office space in city center are also slashing prices to attract tenants. While HSBC did not raise the proximity issue, it is likely a key consideration for them too.
There is an operational MRT station (line 14), Knowledge City Station, located 5 minutes’ walk from Knowledge Tower. As Line 14 does not go to the city center directly, traveling time from city center is long (>1hr) due to transfers on different MRT lines. A new MRT line 37 has been planned to link the existing Knowledge City station directly to city center and this will cut down the traveling time substantially. However, due to the district financial constraints, there is no clarity on when construction will start.
Below are some of the initiatives that the team has been pursuing with the local authorities to make Knowledge Tower more attractive to tech talents:
• DBS tech team received a RMB 5 million incentive from the Huangpu District Government under a policy supporting the fintech industry in the district (including in GKC). This policy has since expired in 2024. We are working closely with the GKC Administrative Committee and the Huangpu District on policies (like the one that benefitted DBS Tech), so that companies in the tech value chain can be incentivized to come to our Knowledge Tower.
• We are exploring/working with various stakeholders (including the government) to build an ecosystem that can support and build tech communities in Knowledge Tower, so that it can attract the right tech talents to come live and work in GKC.
• We are seeking the local GKC government to improve/complete the planned infrastructure and amenities around Knowledge Tower, as the current state of the vicinity pose challenges in attracting companies to Knowledge Tower.

Here’s a more concise, easier-to-read version you can drop into your email (same meaning, tighter flow):
Knowledge Tower will face similar challenges, as it is ~42 km (about a 50-minute drive) from the city center. When market conditions were stronger, the rental savings versus the city center could still attract companies to place tech teams in fringe locations. However, with the current office oversupply, city-center landlords are also cutting rents aggressively, narrowing this advantage. While HSBC did not explicitly raise proximity as an issue, it is likely an important factor for them as well.
On connectivity: Knowledge City Station (MRT Line 14) is operational and about a 5-minute walk from Knowledge Tower. As Line 14 does not connect directly to the city center, commute time remains long (typically >1 hour) due to transfers. A planned MRT Line 37 would link Knowledge City Station directly to the city center and materially reduce travel time, but given district financial constraints, there is no confirmed construction timeline.
To improve Knowledge Tower’s appeal to tech tenants and talent, we are working with local authorities on several initiatives:
- Incentives: DBS’s tech team previously received an RMB 5 million incentive from Huangpu District under a fintech support policy (covering GKC). That policy expired in 2024. We are working with the GKC Administrative Committee and Huangpu District to develop renewed incentive policies to attract companies across the tech value chain to Knowledge Tower.
- Ecosystem-building: We are collaborating with stakeholders (including government) to build a stronger tech ecosystem and community at Knowledge Tower to attract and retain talent in GKC.
- Infrastructure and amenities: We are engaging the GKC government to accelerate delivery and completion of planned infrastructure and amenities around Knowledge Tower, as the current surroundings remain a hurdle for tenant attraction.
