Messages from Business Leaders & Academics,
With Best Wishes to Corporations in Seizing Opportunities to Innovate


Dr. Allan Zeman, the Chairman of Lan Kwai Fong Group, addressed his faith in the inauguration of the new governing team to bring a new ambience to society. Moreover, Hong Kong has gotten over a hard time in the past years, and he believes the current Chief Executive, Mr. John Lee will be working jointly with all sectors to embrace a better future for Hong Kong. In addition, he mentioned that he had contributed to suggesting the "result-oriented" approach raised by Mr. Lee earlier, and he believes that Hong Kong is moving toward a brighter future under his leadership. Besides, Dr. Zeman encourages business leaders to maintain enthusiasm for high quality service and innovative business initiatives as the COVID-19 precautionary measures would be relaxed soon. He added that he is optimistic about Hong Kong's economic growth and progression especially with a huge potential market in the Greater Bay Area. Lastly, he wishes the corporations in Hong Kong a very prosperous future.

Mr. Stephen Liang, the Assistant Executive Director of the Hong Kong Trade Development Council, expressed his appreciation of the flexibility of corporations in Hong Kong during the pandemic to seize the opportunities that follow. He also pointed out that in society nowadays, you have "no cash with no tech".

Prof. Terence Chong, the Executive Director of Lau Chor Tak Institute of Global Economics and Finance, shared that it is difficult to create new economic directions, but he noticed that there are 3 crucial elements of the coming business trend, which are the people-oriented applications of technology, ESG strategies, and the quality of services and products.
