Scaling the Future: Harnessing Mainland Innovation for Hong Kong’s Next Era of Growth

In 2026, “true innovation” is no longer measured by the quantity of ideas generated but by the quality of solutions that can be integrated into day-to-day living and commercialised. This version of innovation produces novel ideas that create impact and drive progress around specific contexts, becoming more precise and tailored to societal needs. “True innovation” is “Future-Ready” at its core.

From Promise to Proof: Linking Capital and Opportunities between East and West

Ambition is easy to declare and hard to demonstrate. When I wrote in The Bulletin a few months ago about Hong Kong’s evolution from “super connector” to “super value-adder”, I laid out our conviction that our role is not merely to introduce enterprises to the world, but to strengthen their hand as they venture into it. Now we are delighted to see that conviction at work, as the results are rolling in with real companies closing real deals in real markets.

The Commercialisation Bridge: Hong Kong’s Role in Turning China’s AI into Cross-Border Growth

The Commercialisation Bridge: Hong Kong’s Role in Turning China’s AI into Cross-Border Growth

Artificial intelligence (AI) has become the defining contest of the decade, and the Chinese Mainland now stands unmistakably among its leaders — from foundation models and research output to a depth of engineering talent few economies can match. Yet capability alone does not create economic value. A breakthrough model becomes meaningful only when it is adapted to an industry, trusted by a regulator, adopted by a business and connected to capital. That translation from raw invention to real-world impact, is precisely where Hong Kong has a distinct role to play.

AI is No Longer an IT Issue — It is a Boardroom Imperative

Artificial intelligence is evolving at a remarkable pace. In just over a decade, AI has progressed from Perception AI, powering applications such as speech recognition, deep learning recommender systems and medical imaging, to Generative AI, transforming digital marketing and content creation. Today, we are entering the era of Agentic AI, where intelligent assistants can support coding, customer service and a growing range of business functions. The next phase, Physical AI, is expected to bring AI into robots, autonomous vehicles and other real-world systems.
