Briefing on Hong Kong's New Biotech Loop
Maisie Ho, Director, Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office in New York
As The Greater Bay Area (GBA) is rapidly transforming into a global biomedical powerhouse, Hong Kong plays a pivotal role for life sciences innovation and financing, supported by strong intellectual property (IP) protection, internationally aligned regulatory standards and proactive government initiatives. It offers companies unique advantages, including access to capital, opportunities for R&D collaboration and commercialisation, manufacturing scale-up capabilities and strategic gateway access to the vast Asian markets.
The business briefing will provide companies, investors and industry professionals with latest developments of Hong Kong’s Northern Metropolis, with an emphasis on the Hong Kong-Shenzhen Innovation and Technology Park, and the emerging opportunities they present for biotech and life sciences innovation.
