It also facilitates high-quality economic co-operation between Hong Kong and the GBA, the driving force for Hong Kong’s next era of economic growth.

The powerful synergy of the GBA

In 2019, the "Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Development Plan" was officially issued and implemented, announcing that the Greater Bay Area consists of nine cities in Guangdong Province, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Dongguan, Foshan, Zhongshan, Huizhou, Jiangmen, Zhaoqing, and two special administrative regions - Hong Kong and Macau.

Economic integration will pool together the complementary strengths of the GBA cities to create a strong clustering effect. Tech companies will be able to access an integrated pool of innovation resources from the region – from R&D expertise to manufacturing capacity and tax breaks – and tap the GBA synergy to enhance their competitiveness.
