Techub News issued a clarification that its founder Alma has no founding association with Central Research.

On December 21, Techub News issued a statement in response to recent false information appearing on social media platforms: Techub News founder and CEO Alma has never participated in the establishment of Central Research, nor has she held any title such as 'co-founder' or similar positions; these statements are false. Big Demo Day is a public entrepreneurial roadshow brand event resulting from longer collaboration, which has received support from institutions such as Cyberport Hong Kong. Techub News only participated in some of the events as a co-organizer and cooperative media, and is not involved in the internal governance, personnel appointments, or operational management of Central Research. Equating this event simply with its 'internal activities' or interpreting Alma's public appearances as participation in its operations is a misunderstanding. The platform has requested the relevant parties to correct the erroneous information and calls on all parties to rely on facts when citing information. For any subsequent deliberate misinformation or malicious slander, Techub News reserves the right to pursue relevant legal responsibilities.
