The authorities are actively promoting the continuous use of the cooperation platform between the two regions and setting up special teams for cooperation in different areas to further explore the potential for collaboration. John Lee Ka-chiu mentioned that another achievement was exploring new opportunities for Hong Kong-Zhejiang cooperation in science and technology innovation. During his visit, he visited many science and technology projects in the region, including exchanges with representatives of Hangzhou Six Dragons. Lastly, he promoted investments by Zhejiang companies in Hong Kong, with local companies planning to establish headquarters and research and development centers in Hong Kong. Over half of the projects are expected to be realized this year. He mentioned that during his discussions with representatives of Six Dragons in Hangzhou, he realized the importance of application scenarios in science and technology innovation, as the government should provide assistance for new products to undergo continuous improvements through application scenarios and experiments to achieve the best results. This reminded him of the low-altitude economy, where the SAR government is working hard to create practical applications for many drones and will continue to discuss with the industry.
