Tech Innovation & Business Matching with Hong Kong Services Sector

Dongguan’s high-tech sector is flourishing, making it one of the fastest-evolving innovation hubs in the Greater Bay Area (GBA). Against this backdrop, Felix Lee, Chairman of the China Committee, led a delegation to the city on 16 May to explore cutting-edge development opportunities and strengthen collaboration between Hong Kong’s professional services sector and Dongguan’s dynamic industries.

Delegates toured several major sites to gain insights into the city’s tech ecosystem, sustainability initiatives and talent policies.

At the Binhaiwan Exhibition Center, interactive multimedia displays showcased the district’s urban development blueprint and core industries. Kexing Science Park impressed members with its integrated life science ecosystem, which provides R&D, production, housing and commercial facilities. Meanwhile, OPPO’s Global Computing Power Centre – a flagship of Dongguan’s digital economy – highlighted its role in providing robust computing solutions for businesses.

Members also visited the Binhai Bay Hong Kong Macao Youth Home Innovation and Entrepreneurship Base, which attracts and nurtures young entrepreneurs from Hong Kong and Macao through policy support, platform development and resource integration, fostering collaboration among the region’s youth.

Luo Bin, Secretary of the Binhaiwan Bay Area Party Working Committee, told members that what they had seen represented only one-fifth of Binhaiwan’s potential. “We’re eager to deepen collaboration with Hong Kong, particularly in innovation and talent, to propel the GBA’s industrial upgrade,” he explained.

Tariffs and the Importance of Origin in Supply Chain Strategy

We were delighted to host an insightful luncheon on 29 April, featuring experts from Deloitte China, Dolly Zhang Partner, Indirect Tax, Customs and Global Trade Consulting and Shelly Ma, Director, Global Trade Advisory, who shared their expertise on the evolving landscape of U.S. rules of origin and their growing impact on global supply chains.

With China still facing significant tariff measures amid ongoing trade tensions, understanding the origin of goods has become a critical factor for businesses navigating compliance and managing cross-border operations. Moderated by Felix Lee, Chairman of the China Committee, the session covered a quick glance at Trump 2.0 economic and trade policies, the impact of retaliation tariffs on U.S. processing trade and bonded logistics and the classification and application of rules of origin for goods exported to the U.S, provided valuable takeaways for businesses across industries, especially those managing international trade under complex tariff regimes.
