Hong Kong makes further in-roads in AI, aviation at mainland Chinese expo

Hong Kong is forging deeper ties with the mainland across artificial intelligence (AI), aviation and professional services, industry insiders at China’s global import expo have said.

Tech executives and accounting veterans discussed how to leverage Hong Kong’s strategic position, such as through the Northern Metropolis megaproject near the mainland Chinese border, while the city’s flag carrier introduced its refrigerated sea logistics link to Dongguan, Guangdong province. These were signs of a deepening integration, they said.

On Saturday, Andrew Chen, founder of technology company Mindverse, told the South China Morning Post that operations spanning both sides of the border were becoming more seamless as physical and business ties grew stronger.
