During the meeting, the participants discussed the development of the Shenzhen-Hong Kong Border Economic Belt. Professor Hung introduced the concept of this “belt,” which is a platform that aims to deepen cross-border cooperation in a wide range of areas, including technology and innovation, high-end manufacturing, cultural exchanges, tourism consumption, medical care and education. Tam and Hong remarked that the main challenges would be free flow of data and people across the border. However, the platform has the potential to benefit Hong Kong businesses, especially if these hurdles were removed.
