HFT International, Inc. (HFT) was founded in 1993 by scientists, researchers, marketing professionals, and investment specialists in Ithaca NY for the purpose of bringing the latest, best quality computer and environmental technology to the developing economies of Asia. HFT's first project was to evaluate the applicability and market for a computer based laboratory originally intended for teaching physics at American High Schools, to teaching students in Chinese High Schools. HFT is currently active in several other industrial projects, including the development, marketing, and manufacture of innovative heat exchangers and solar powered electrical generation sets in Asia.
HFT has also developed a growing import/export and wholesale distribution network with a focus in high quality products that are unique to a given market.
