Since Hong Kong returned to the motherland, Hong Kong has achieved considerable social and economic development in the past 25 years.
In the world, Hong Kong's "Human Development Index" is the fourth. While achieving these achievements, we should not be complacent. We should continue to mobilize our momentum in all aspects and continue to enhance development.
[Explanation] During the seminar, representatives from all walks of life in Hong Kong and business people expressed their opinions on the future development opportunities and difficulties of Hong Kong.
After the meeting, the participants said in an interview with a reporter from China News Agency that Hong Kong, backed by the motherland and facing the world, has many unique advantages, and the development of innovation and technology will also bring more opportunities for Hong Kong and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. .

The innovation from "0" to "1" is an inherent advantage of Hong Kong's long-term innovation and technology development, but we also see that Hong Kong is now facing competition from various international cities. It is necessary to consolidate the extension of some industrial chains and innovation chains in the midstream and downstream, so today, I put forward a proposal for the new SAR government, that is, I hope to restart the capital entrant program and upgrade it to an innovation and technology capital entrant. The plan will lead a lot of capital to the needs of our technology innovation enterprises in Hong Kong, and it will also drive the resources of the (Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater) Bay Area to form complementary advantages with Hong Kong's innovation and technology.

In fact, Hong Kong is a good environment for innovation and technology. We have the circulation of capital, the circulation of information, and the abundance of talents.
Moreover, Hong Kong is very familiar with the development of the mainland, understands the national conditions, and is very experienced in international connections, so it is actually a good environment to do I&T in Hong Kong.
