The Greater Bay Area - Leveraging opportunities for Hong Kong in the transition towards sustainability

View and download updated programme agenda

Hong Kong’ s Chief Executive Carrie Lam highlighted in the policy address that the HKSAR　Government will actively participate in taking forward the development of the Bay Area to create favourable conditions for diversifying our industries, assist Hong Kong people and enterprises to discover new opportunities, enabling us to capitalise on the unique advantages of Hong Kong in the Bay Area. In this BEC EnviroSeries Conference, we will explore how Hong Kong can benefit from the Greater Bay Area initiative. What are the opportunities for Hong Kong businesses to effectively enhance quality of life and sustainable development of the city cluster by working to protect the environment across the region? Can we promote the adoption of a green and low-carbon way of production and operation across borders to increase competitiveness and develop reputational benefits for HK businesses? How could we take forward environmental protection through a Greater Bay Area approach to develop the regions’ potential through mutual engagement?

Environmental technology startup mini-expo
Innovation for sustainability is an important part of Bay Area development. With the support from Invest Hong Kong, a concurrent mini-expo will be held during the conference. Some of the most exciting Hong Kong startups will showcase their expertise and innovation in environmental technology to spark inspiration and collaboration for sustainable development in the Greater Bay Area.
