Pleased to make a trip to visit the #GBA #Nansha #南沙 with a few of my advising entrepreneurs from Hong Kong yesterday. We would like to find out how to leverage on this newly developed innovation and technology hub to tap into the GBA market with 80+ million people.

We visited GBA #创享湾 where 7 incubators are located. We were also impressed by the innovative tech and applications from two leading mainland #AI companies #iFLYTEK #科大讯飛 and #CloudWalk #云从香港科技大學 #HKUST新鴻基地產#越秀集團 also set up their substantial presence in Nansha. The ecosystem is gradually getting ready for #innovation and #technology.

Thanks Gary Lam #PosifySheldon Li #BuyandshipJoseph Yuen #SwapiflyAlan So #LivelyImpactAndy Kwok and Victor Ng #OpenCertHubAcademy #OpenCertHub and some others to join me to this learning trip in Nanshan. Appreciate Raymond Yip, Chief Liaison Officer, Guangzhou Nansha Service Centre in Hong Kong, to arrange such a fruitful programme for us to learn about Nansha.

Let me know if you would like to know a bit more about our experience in Nansha. Happy to share. Cheers.

The first-ever GS1 HK Solution Day was successfully held today in HKPC. Really glad that it was a physical event. I have met many old friends #f2f FINALLY after the long Covid-19 period and made some new friends as well.

More than ten partners of GS1 were showing their practical solutions and many attendees participated the event. Great atmosphere and lots of chats. Thanks #GS1HK team.

In addition, it was also the 11th Consumer Caring Scheme Presentation Ceremony. I love the Chinese name #貼心企業嘉許典禮。I was grateful to represent GS1 on my capacity of President, IoT Industry Advisory Council, GS1 HK, to present awards for the winners in the Scheme.

Really learned a lot from Louis Mah, CIO of #Maxims, on Maxim’s digital tranformation and Sandy Tan, Head of Ecosystem, #DBS HK, on DBS’s data strategy. Glad to meet Samson LamFrandy Chu from #DSGEnergy and congrats on their Consumer Caring Scheme award. Enjoyed chats with Nelson Chow and Ming Chan #HKMA, my CityU DBA buddy Leo Yeung, my mentor Gregg L., my advising startup #Posify Koey Lee and many others.

Appreciate Anna Lin and her teammates Corinna FungDr. Stephen LamMignone ChengPhilip YK Choi, MBACatherine Cheng and many others for their great effort to organize such a great solution day and gatherings.

We had a very fruitful discussion with #eCommerce leaders and #entrepreneurs today. It is a part of the #Innopreneur Forum series organized by #HKPC. The Innopreneur Network aims to connect #SMEs with innovators and practitioners.

The main theme this time was “Successful eCommerce Strategies in the New Normal”. I have moderated 2 online discussion panels with the following guests.

To deliver successful eCommerce, there are quite a few challenges that we need to overcome like #Marketing#O2O integration, #Logistics#Warehousing#CrossBorder#Cost#Speed#DataAnalytics#DataPrivacy#DigitalReadiness#Financing#CashFlow and more.

Fortunately, we have built a vibrant eCommerce #ecosystem in Hong Kong. Merchants and SMEs can focus on marketing and #innovation. For the rest of these challenges, they can leverage the respective partners in the ecosystem. In the last 6 years, Hong Kong has cultivated 4,000+ #startups and 10+ #unicorns. They have been making pivotal impact and significant contribution to our society in this chaotic pandemic period.

After all, building trust among stakeholders in the ecosystem is key for success. We all learned a lot from the guest speakers. If you would like to watch the replay, please visit this webpage in a few days: https://lnkd.in/gbf7KMRV

Thanks 香港生產力促進局 #HKPCAcademy#HKPCInnoSpace#SMEOneKaren F.Elly YipDAPHNE HO and many unsung heros behind the scene for organizing it. Also, appreciate all supporting organizations.

How the key #eCommerce service providers and #startups in Hong Kong #innovation and #technology #ecosystem have been helping #SME not just tackle the challenges in the Covid but also seize new business opportunities?

The new issue (Mar 2022) of the #Bloomberg Businessweek Hong Kong/Taiwan have looked at this hot theme. They have interviewed a few key eCommerce leaders and myself. If you want to know more, here is the link.

I presented today’s participants complimentary copies of my book #數碼力大提升 with my autograph. Hope that helps encourage more SMEs to catch up the high speed train of #digitalization.
