It is set to develop into a world-class technological innovation hub connecting the Mainland and the international community, as well as an important source for the country to foster new quality productive forces. He looks forward to more co-operation between Singapore and Hong Kong in areas such as innovation and technology, talent exchange and industrial collaboration, jointly promoting regional innovation and technology development.
