Based on recent official statements and developments, Hong Kong is actively leveraging its unique advantages to accelerate the development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA), focusing on financial connectivity, talent cultivation, and deeper integration.
The table below summarizes the key pillars of Hong Kong's strategy to spur growth in the Greater Bay Area:
Strategic Pillar Key Initiatives & Focus Areas
Financial Connectivity & Global Links Serving as a "super connector" and "super value-adder" between global capital and mainland enterprises.
Leveraging status as the world's largest offshore yuan hub, with no foreign exchange controls, to provide access to yuan-denominated assets.
Establishing a new Economic and Trade Office in Kuala Lumpur to enhance links with ASEAN and expand to Latin America and Central Asia.
Talent & Innovation Ecosystem Co-hosting the Third Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Talent High-Quality Development Conference to recruit global talent.
Promoting a "Hong Kong R&D - Bay Area Transformation" model, exemplified by collaborations in the Hezhou Shenzhen-Hong Kong Science and Technology Innovation Cooperation Zone.
Investing HK$10 billion to establish the Hong Kong Artificial Intelligence Research Institute and supporting the local AI ecosystem.
Infrastructure & Institutional Integration Deepening integration by facilitating the freer flow of people, goods, capital, and data within the GBA.
Expanding the aviation network to connect with promising markets in South America, Central Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.
Supporting the development of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge and other cross-boundary infrastructure to create a "one-hour living circle".
? The Driving Force Behind the Strategy
Hong Kong's enhanced role is driven by several key factors:
National Strategic Importance: The central government views the GBA as a "principal support of the new development paradigm" and a "pioneer of Chinese modernization". Integrating Hong Kong and Macao into national development is a central vision, with the potential to "unleash huge energy similar to nuclear fusion".
Evolving Global Trade: Hong Kong is shifting opportunities towards "going out," aligning with mainland enterprises that are actively expanding into emerging economies. This requires Hong Kong to provide more integrated solutions in finance, law, and professional services.
Unique Position of Hong Kong: The city remains the only place with both Chinese and global advantages. Its institutional strengths, including a sound legal framework and free capital flows, make it an ideal testbed and channel for international capital and technology entering the GBA.
Hong Kong's strategy is not merely about maintaining its status but about actively creating new value. By channeling global resources into the GBA and facilitating the international expansion of Chinese enterprises, Hong Kong is positioning itself as an indispensable engine for regional growth and a key player in national development.
I hope this overview is helpful. Are you more interested in the specific policies for talent attraction or the details of particular cross-border cooperation projects?
