As a practitioner in the #innovation and #technology industry for 30+ years, I am so grateful to see that our Hong Kong is going to have a global showcase on how technology and innovation can empower a #SmartCity. #SkyCity is an impressive project to build another landmark for Hong Kong. Something that we Hong Kong people can be proud of again https://lnkd.in/ethaW9vu.
Smart airport, top shopping mall and commercial buildings (#11Skies https://www.11-skies.com/ or #Retailtainment from New World Development), world-class Expo exhibition centre, international hotels plus all the major scenic spots in the Lantau Island like #DisneyLand, and more importantly, providing a seamless experience for the key stakeholders of our #ecosystem including customers, tourists, visitors, merchants, tenants, startups and many others from the Greater Bay Area #GBA and all major cities around the globe. Appreciate the great leadership from Adrian Cheng #NWD.
Today, I moderated an expert panel to discuss how technologies could create that seamless customer experience for our SkyCity. There are 2 more panels on #ProfessionalServices and #Tourism in the forum. It drew over 10,000 offline and online audiences to attend today’s forum. Thank you so much for our panelists Chris Au Young #HKAA, Vivian Lo #CathayPacific, Paul Sin #NWD, and Francis Fong #HKITF

Here is my quote for the event:
“SKYCITY is a global showcase of how innovation and technology can generate a joyful experience for worldwide visitors. Emerging technologies are coming to us every day. The sky is the only limit on how innovation and technology can make a difference to customers and merchants in the SKYCITY. Come and experience it!”
Appreciate the effort from our MC Akina Fong and those behind the scene from #BrunswickGroup #K11 #NWD Quinton Chan, Mercury Wong, Ivan Chan, Vincci Hui 許煒森 and many others. Let’s collaborate together to build a smart SkyCity.
First of all, I wish all of you have a prosperous, healthy & happy year in 2022. It is time to review 2021 & plan forward.
I was engaged in a few impactful & amazing programs in 2021. I couldn’t have accomplished all these without the trust & support from you all, my partners, friends in the ecosystem & my teammates. Heartfelt thank to all of you. I look forward to collaborating with you even more in 2022 & beyond.
Amazingly, I have done over 120 LinkedIn posts in 2021. It indicated well that our innovation and technology #ecosystem is not just resilient but also vibrant again. To recap 2021, let me share with you my top 12 posts. Really appreciate your support to my sharings posted in the last 12 months.
