It clearly supports Hong Kong to develop into an international innovation and technology (I&T) centre and presents historic opportunities for Hong Kong. He added that the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government will leverage Hong Kong’s unique strengths of having the motherland’s support and connect with the world, so as to keep creating strong impetus for growth for Hong Kong and the country and address earnestly people’s concerns and difficulties in daily life.

Speaking on behalf of the Secretary for Innovation, Technology and Industry, Professor Sun Dong, the Under Secretary for Innovation, Technology and Industry, Ms Lillian Cheong, said that the HKSAR Government will establish clear development plans and targets for Hong Kong’s I&T development over the next five to 10 years, continue to enhance the I&T ecosystem and enrich the talent pool with a result-oriented approach.

In the welcoming remarks, the Commissioner for Innovation and Technology, Ms Rebecca Pun, thanked the WAIC for its invitation to host the Hong Kong Branch. She said, “Shanghai and Hong Kong have established a platform for exchange and co‑operation between the technological departments of both Governments and also technological institutions in both cities. Joining of the WAIC also manifests this common goal.”

The Chief Executive Officer of the HKSTP, Mr Albert Wong, said, “The HKSTP is deeply honoured to co-organise with the ITC the WAIC 2022 – Hong Kong Branch, which is a great showcase of Hong Kong’s AI innovation and talents. This is proof of the critical importance of AI in driving a successful digital economy and creating a solid foundation for Hong Kong’s next era of growth.”

One panel discussion session focused on AI and smart city development with the sharing of views from representatives of the Airport Authority Hong Kong, the Hong Kong Productivity Council, the MTR Corporation and SenseTime, while another panel discussion featured digital intelligence and smart industry with industry leaders from Amazon Web Services, Insilico Medicine, Lenovo and SmartMore.
