05. February 2021, Online

The Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office (HKETO) in Brussels and HKETO in Berlin are organising an online event with Mrs Carrie Lam, the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) on business opportunities offered by Hong Kong to European businesses. 

Amid the backdrop of the global pandemic and economic turmoil, Mrs Lam announced her annual Policy Address in November 2020 with numerous measures to support Hong Kong to strive ahead with renewed perseverance.  Sharing the green vision with our European partners, the Policy Address unveils Hong Kong’s determination to achieve carbon neutrality before 2050.  For European companies keen to venture into the huge markets in China and Asia, the Policy Address also features measures to facilitate business to access the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) through Hong Kong.

Joining Mrs Lam to the online event are Principal Officials in charge of commerce and economic development, environment and financial services respectively.  With direct dialogue with Mrs Lam and the Principal Officials, you will also get first-hand updates on the latest situation in different aspects of Hong Kong, its economic prospects and impetus for future developments.
