Hong Kong: Gateway to GBA business opportunities

HONG KONG, Sep 5, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – As part of the second largest economy in the world, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) with a population of 86 million is a new driver of Hong Kong's economic development and an ideal springboard for international companies to enter the Mainland China market.
HKTDC will take its mega promotion campaign, Think Business, Think Hong Kong, to Paris on 19 September.



The Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) will take its mega promotion campaign, Think Business, Think Hong Kong, to Paris on 19 September. The event will explore the current market landscape of the GBA and its interconnectivity with Mainland China.

Prominent business leaders will share their successes and insights on how French and European companies can capture the vast opportunities in the GBA by leveraging the Hong Kong platform. They include Mr Laurent Doucet, Vice President of the China Committee of The French Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Hong Kong and Partner of Roland Berger, Ir Andrew Young, Associate Director (Innovation) of Sino Group, Mr Nicolas Vanderchmitt, Partner and Head of Hong Kong Office of LPA-CGR Avocats, and Ms Delphine Lefay Dultzin, Co-Founder & CEO of OnTheList.

The GBA has emerged as a global hub for innovation, with rapidly evolving breakthroughs in finance and healthcare. Thematic sessions on these hot topics, including green finance and sustainability, will be held. Innovative global business leaders will share their insights, including representatives from the Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation, Hong Kong Monetary Authority, Moody's Investors Service, Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank, J.P. Morgan, Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited as well as start-ups.

At the event, Dr Peter K N Lam, HKTDC Chairman, Mr Paul Chan, Financial Secretary of the HKSAR, and Mr Olivier Becht, France's Minister for Foreign Trade, Economic Attractiveness and French Nationals Abroad will deliver opening remarks at the symposium.

There will be extended networking activities, with Hong Kong SAR Government officials and business leaders from across sectors, including technology, finance and professional services, taking part in the programme. One-on-one business consultations, on-site business matching with French companies as well as the Hong Kong Dinner provide many opportunities for the business communities of France and Hong Kong to connect.

Strong France-Hong Kong ties

France is a close trading and investment partner to Hong Kong. In 2022, it was Hong Kong's third largest trading partner within the EU. Regarding bilateral investment, France was the largest EU investor in Hong Kong at the end of 2021, with Hong Kong ranked as the fifth most popular destination for French investment in Asia. Hong Kong investors have also made substantial investments in France, with the city the third largest Asian investor in the country. In terms of commercial presence, France ranked just behind Germany among EU members in the number of companies established in Hong Kong. As of 2022, there were 365 French companies in Hong Kong.

Hong Kong an ideal business partner

Hong Kong has consistently ranked highest on economic freedom and competitiveness. Its institutional strengths, including the free trade and investment regimes, a simple and low tax system and free flow of capital and goods offer a favourable business environment for investors.

Beyond trade and finance, Hong Kong offers exciting prospects in innovation and technology (I&T) for French start-ups. Entry into or expansion in Mainland China as well as conducting joint research can help French enterprises further grow their business. With its aim to create an I&T new hub of 30,000 hectares, Hong Kong's Northern Metropolis project also offers many opportunities, which will be highlighted at the symposium.

Hong Kong's strategic location as an international financial, fundraising and investment hub and as the international gateway between Mainland China and the rest of the world presents immense opportunities for French companies seeking to expand in the GBA, Mainland China, Belt and Road countries and ASEAN.

Mainland businesses look to Hong Kong to secure global success

HONG KONG, Sep 5, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – Some 90% of Mainland China-based companies planned to expand their level of international business activity in the next one to three years, in line with the national drive to "go global". This commitment was highlighted in Hong Kong as the Premier Platform for Mainland Companies to Expand to BRI and RCEP Markets, a major survey released today (5 September 2023) by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC).
Wing Chu, Principal Economist (Greater China Research Team) of HKTDC (left); and Irina Fan, Director of HKTDC Research


More than 70% of these firms focused on countries that were Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) signatories or Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) beneficiaries. Tellingly, the findings also showed that more than 60% of mainland enterprises preferred engaging Hong Kong-based professional service providers to ensure successful international expansion.

Commenting on the survey findings, Irina Fan, Director of HKTDC Research, said: "This survey more than confirms Hong Kong's status as a 'super-connector', one uniquely well-positioned to help mainland companies make good on their global expansion plans. Within the shifting global economic landscape, Hong Kong's well-established business platform remains a preeminent resource. The city's extensive array of premium financial and professional services and comprehensive international network make it the perfect partner for any business looking to optimise its outcomes within the RCEP region, along the BRI routes or, indeed, pretty much anywhere else in the world."

Expanding on the survey's findings, Wing Chu, Principal Economist with HKTDC Research, identified four key areas in which mainland businesses planned to expand overseas operations. Mr Chu, who heads the Greater China Research Team and had overall responsibility for the survey, said: "The four priority expansion areas appear to be logistics and transport, as singled out by 28.8% of respondents, marketing and sales (26.9%), factories (23.3%) and overseas procurement (15.9%).

"Drilling down into the findings, the survey also shows that 62.1% of expansion-minded mainland companies favour Hong Kong as a source of professional-service support, while only 47.7% would opt for mainland service providers. In more specific terms, most Greater Bay Area-based businesses designated Hong Kong as their preferred service provider locale, while their Yangtze River Delta counterparts divided their needs more or less evenly across Hong Kong and Shanghai."

Responding to another finding, which showed 83.9% of survey participants were driven to expand internationally by concerns over long-term viability of their traditional markets, Ms Fan said: "Geopolitical tensions, falling demand and economic uncertainties have all reduced confidence in many of the traditional overseas markets. As a result, 71.6% of expansion-oriented mainland businesses are targeting one or more of the 14 overseas RCEP member nations, while 64.3% expressed interest in venturing into the emerging markets along the routes of the BRI and beyond, including those located in the Middle East, Central and Eastern Europe, South America or Africa."

Survey methodology and remit

Between May and July this year, HKTDC Research surveyed 791 mainland enterprises operating primarily in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) and the Yangtze River Delta region. The survey had two primary objectives – improve understanding of the overseas expansion plans of participating businesses and build up a clearer picture of diverse challenges they face.

To gain a wider perspective, HKTDC Research also conducted in-depth interviews with recognised experts in many of Hong Kong's professional service industries, including representatives of the legal and financial sectors. The consensus was that the many areas in which Hong Kong could boost outward-bound mainland businesses included negotiating with overseas partners; overseeing legal, investment and general business arrangements; financing arrangements, providing project valuations and meeting due-diligence obligations, as well as assisting with tax planning, risk management and compliance with overseas regulatory requirements. It was also noted that Hong Kong offered exemplary international and regional logistics services and possessed unrivalled expertise when it came to ensuring products / services complied with a wide range of overseas standards and legal obligations.

The Eighth Belt and Road Summit

To fully capitalise on the many emerging BRI opportunities and celebrate the 10th anniversary of the programme, the eighth edition of the Belt and Road Summit, jointly organised by the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) and the HKTDC will take place at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC) on 13 and 14 September (Wednesday and Thursday) The Summit fully aligns with the objectives of China's 14th Five-Year Plan, which emphasises the key roles Hong Kong and Macao are set to play in the ongoing rollout of this vast infrastructure development and trade facilitation programme.

The Belt and Road Summit will assemble more than 80 key officials and business leaders from many of the countries and regions along the BRI routes, as well as investors, project stakeholders, operators and service providers from around the world. Together, they will provide an overview of the programme's landmark achievements throughout the past decade and detail many related future investment and business opportunities, while showcasing the unique benefits of the Hong Kong platform.

Indonesia Remains a Market to Watch as Local Players Focus On Growth, Localisation And Expansion Beyond Its Shores

JAKARTA, Sep 4, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – The Asia Video Industry Association (AVIA) hosted over 200 delegates at its recent Indonesia in View conference that took place in Jakarta on 31 August.




The conference opened with industry leaders from across the TV and streaming space sharing their views on the state of TV and video in Indonesia, where total video industry revenues are expected to rise from US$2.5 billion in 2023 to reach US$3.7 billion by 2028, according to the latest research by Media Partners Asia (MPA).

Tizar Patria, Senior Manager of Business Development, (Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia), Netflix, was optimistic about the market as it continued to grow for Netflix, with a focus on content that works for the market coupled with a quality experience for consumers. Clarissa Tanoesoedibjo, Managing Director of Vision+, added that an ecosystem was needed that reinforced all other parts, from pay TV to free to air and streaming, and that finding strategic partners in market to maximise opportunities was key. Lesley Simpson, Country Head, WeTV and iflix Indonesia, also concurred that growth in OTT is here and can be achieved through strategic partnerships.

With Indonesia representing Southeast Asia's largest video content market, the battle for content remains fierce. Titan Hermawan, President Director, MNC Pictures, saw the need to create original IP and original stories as a big opportunity for new scriptwriters. For Angga Dwimas Sasongko, Founder, Director, Visinema Group, what was most important was to focus on a pipeline of talent to be able to scale content production. However, the panellists agreed with Abid Hussain, Founder & CEO, Creative Stew, that business models needed to change for the betterment of the producers. Ruben Hattari, Director, Public Policy Southeast Asia, Netflix, said that the industry needed to work on broadening its skills base. Indonesia was also the only country without a production incentive scheme so more needed to be done there to support the growth of the industry.

However, piracy was still a major issue in Indonesia, with AVIA's Coalition Against Piracy's most recent annual consumer surveys showing that 54% of consumers in Indonesia access pirate services, the fourth highest incidence of piracy in the region. In a major collaborative effort towards the fight against piracy, CAP and the Video Streaming Association of Indonesia (AVISI) (https://bit.ly/44SthRT) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in Jakarta on 30 August at CAP's State of Piracy Summit which ran alongside Indonesia in View. The MOU represented a significant step forward for AVIA and AVISI in combining their resources to combat online piracy in Indonesia and protect Indonesia's creative and media industries.

Indonesia in View shifted focus to the monetization of premium video in the afternoon. Chris Mottershead, Commercial Director APAC, Publica, said that with advertisers not planning as far ahead these days, programmatic was likely to play a bigger role in monetization. Sharing insights from other markets, Mottershead also added that FAST was a good way of bringing back consumers who dropped out of the pay ecosystem, as they could churn from OTT, go to FAST and then come back to OTT when they could afford the subscription. Khin Mu Yar Soe, Director of Customer Success SEAK, PubMatic, also said that the programmatic space will continue to grow and evolve, with a more integrated approach on both the buy side and sell side, as well as at a technology level.

The conference closed off with a keynote conversation with Hary Tanoesoedibjo, Executive Chairman, MNC Group, who outlined the next phase of his ambitious plans to shift focus to becoming primarily a content and entertainment company. He shared his plan to combine RCTI+ and Vision+ into a super app where a two-tiered service will be offered under one brand combining FTA content which will continue to be monetised through advertising as well as a premium subscription service. The plan was also to create a bigger ecosystem and grow the service to target all of Asia by investing in more quality content.

When asked about rumours of the sale of MNC Play, Tanoesoedibjo shared that they will come to an arrangement to sell the data infrastructure part of the business while keeping the IPTV business and continuing to bundle the services for both existing and future subscribers.

HONG KONG, Aug 31, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – The eighth edition of the Belt and Road Summit, jointly organised by the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) and Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), will take place at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC) on 13 and 14 September (Wednesday and Thursday). This year's Summit comes a decade after the launch of the Belt and Road Initiative. Under the theme Prospering on a Decade of Collaboration, the Summit creates a vital platform for Belt and Road-related business exchange.
Algernon Yau, Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development of the HKSAR, describes the government's role and achievements in the Belt and Road Initiative, as well as development opportunities for Hong Kong

Julina Chan, Director-General, Belt and Road Office; Algernon Yau, Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development of the HKSAR; Dr Peter K N Lam, Chairman of the HKTDC; and Margaret Fong, Executive Director of the HKTDC [L-R]


Some 80 government officials and business leaders from countries and regions along the Belt and Road, as well as project owners, investors and service providers from around the world, will gather to share their Belt and Road experience over the past 10 years and explore investment and business opportunities while showcasing Hong Kong's unique advantages to the global community.

Algernon Yau, Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development of the HKSAR, said: "The physical return of the Belt and Road Summit after the pandemic carries great weight as it coincides with the momentous 10th anniversary of the Belt and Road Initiative. This Summit is a valuable opportunity to deepen understanding of Hong Kong's pivotal role in the Belt and Road Initiative and to foster increased business opportunities, particularly in emerging markets such as ASEAN and the Middle East. Hong Kong's internationalisation, exceptional professional services, and talented workforce have always played a critical role in connecting the global community. Leveraging our strengths in finance, risk management, accounting and taxation, architecture and engineering, legal services and commercial arbitration, construction management, logistics and more, Hong Kong actively contributes to the high-quality development of the Belt and Road Initiative and endeavours to meet Mainland China's evolving needs."

Dr Peter K N Lam, Chairman of the HKTDC, said: "Since its inception in 2016, the Belt and Road Summit has evolved into a preeminent global business platform for discussing opportunities arising from the Belt and Road Initiative and fostering substantial cooperation. The Summit has consistently garnered high-level support from the mainland. This year, we anticipate the participation of over 5,000 distinguished guests for fruitful exchanges. The HKTDC will continue to build on the annual Summit, enhance the information platforms, and leverage our extensive network of 50 offices worldwide to assist the business community in seizing the vast opportunities presented by the initiative. These concerted efforts help reinforce Hong Kong's role as the commercial hub for Belt and Road opportunities."

Connecting policy and business leaders to explore collaboration

Over the past decade, more than 150 countries and regions and over 30 international organisations have signed more than 200 Belt and Road cooperation documents, covering markets accounting for 40% of global GDP and 45% of world goods trade. Hong Kong has been an active participant and contributor, helping international companies expand in Belt and Road countries and regions, fostering deeper exchanges and cooperation between nations, and promoting high-quality economic growth.

The Belt and Road Summit, recognised as a crucial platform for promoting the business opportunities under the Initiative, features discussion sessions and exchange. These include the Opening Session, Policy Dialogue, Business Plenary, Thematic Breakout Sessions and Project Pitching Sessions. At the Opening Session John Lee, Chief Executive of the HKSAR, will deliver an opening address. Aset Irgaliyev, Chairman of Agency for Strategic Planning and Reforms, Republic of Kazakhstan, and Rizal Affandi Lukman, Senior and Special Staff to the Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs of Indonesia, will also deliver keynote addresses.

Overseas officials join expanded policy dialogue

This year's Summit will feature two Policy Dialogue sessions. The first session, hosted by Christopher Hui, Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury of the HKSAR, is titled Tapping into the Potential of the Middle East. The dialogue aims to explore effective ways for Hong Kong and international companies to access Middle Eastern markets, fostering collaborative advantages, reciprocal benefits and collective development. Speakers sharing their insights will include Rania A. Al-Mashat, Minister of International Cooperation of Egypt; and Abdulla Bin Touq Al Marri, Minister of Economy of the UAE.

The second session, Belt and Road Initiative as a Catalyst for Regional Cooperation and Development, will be hosted by Mr Yau. This session, focusing on market integration and connectivity among economies, will feature high-ranking officials from ASEAN and Europe who will share their insights, including Peter Szijjarto, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade of Hungary; and Zambry Abd Kadir, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Malaysia.

The Business Plenary on the afternoon of the first day revolves around Fostering Business Collaboration along the Belt and Road through Hong Kong. The 10-year milestone of the Belt and Road Initiative coincides with a crucial phase in the post-pandemic era, characterised by a focus on global economic improvement, where multilateral cooperation assumes paramount importance. The discussion, chaired by Antony Leung, Chairman of the Nan Fung Group and Group Chairman and Co-founder of New Frontier Group, will analyse how growth momentum in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) can propel development of the Initiative and the strategic role of Hong Kong and the GBA. Esteemed guest speakers, including Jeffrey Cheah, Founder and Chairman of Sunway Group; Jean-Pascal Tricoire, Chairman of Schneider Electric; Wang Haihuai, Director and General Manager of China Communications Construction Company Limited; and Wang Xiangming, Chairman of China Resources Group, will share their insights.

New Middle East Forum to explore collaboration

In February this year the Chief Executive led a delegation organised by the HKTDC to the Middle East. The visit proved highly successful in exploring opportunities and strengthening trade ties with the region. The Middle East Forum debuts at this year's Belt and Road Summit, focusing on opportunities, developments and collaboration the Middle East presents. Countries in the region are key Belt and Road partners and their relationship with Hong Kong is going from strength to strength. The Middle East Forum will feature Business and Investment Outlook in the Middle East Market, a business session hosted by Ronnie C. Chan, Chairman of Hang Lung Properties Limited, which will invite distinguished guests, including Nicolas Aguzin, Chief Executive Officer of Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited; and Hossam Heiba, President of General Authority for Investment & Free Zones, to analyse trade and investment prospects of the Middle Eastern market and further strengthen the connection between Hong Kong and Middle Eastern countries.

Finance Chapter, Youth Chapter debut

The Finance Chapter and Youth Chapter debut this year. The Finance Chapter will delve into Hong Kong's superior financial services, innovative technologies and sustainable-development vision, exploring how they can contribute to the Initiative and countries and regions along the Belt and Road. The Youth Chapter will invite young business leaders and start-ups to share insights on discovering and seizing opportunities.

This year the Ministry of Commerce will host the Mainland-Hong Kong Services Industry Symposium on day one of the Summit for the first time. The HKTDC will also collaborate with the Department of Justice, Development Bureau, Financial Services Development Council, Insurance Authority, Hong Kong Monetary Authority, Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation and Cyberport, to co-organise Thematic Breakout Sessions on different topics. These sessions will introduce Hong Kong's professional services and advantages in such areas as legal cooperation, infrastructure, insurance, finance, green finance, digital advances and innovative technology. The sessions aim to comprehensively showcase Hong Kong's role and contributions in the Initiative. The China International Contractors Association will also continue to collaborate with the HKTDC to co-organise a session exploring infrastructure project opportunities.

Extending, optimising deal making

The HKTDC will extend its online and physical deal-making service to seven days (13 to 20 September), expecting to arrange more than 800 one-to-one project-matching sessions covering more than 280 investment projects this year. The deal-making service includes one-to-one business matching meetings and project investment sessions. Business matching meetings will connect participants based on investment preferences and business expertise to facilitate one-to-one discussions on collaboration opportunities. Project investment sessions will provide a platform for project owners from different countries to present projects, giving investors and service intermediaries a comprehensive understanding of the investment opportunities in different sectors. Project investment sessions will focus on four main areas: (1) energy, natural resources and public utilities, (2) innovation and technology, (3) urban development, and (4) transport and logistics infrastructure. New this year will be project-pitching sessions on the Middle East and emerging markets.

This year's Summit will showcase project collaboration opportunities from various markets worldwide including the Middle East, with more than 80 exhibitors.

AVIA and AVISI Combine Forces With an MOU to Fight Against Piracy and Protect and Promote Content in Indonesia

JAKARTA, Aug 30, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – The Asia Video Industry Association (AVIA) and the Video Streaming Association of Indonesia (AVISI) today signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in Jakarta. The signing, held at the Coalition Against Piracy's (CAP's) State of Piracy Summit, sees AVIA and AVISI come together to both fight online piracy in Indonesia and promote awareness of the efforts to do so.

The MOU represents a significant step forward for AVIA and AVISI in combining their resources to combat online piracy in Indonesia and protect Indonesia's creative and media industries. Representatives from Indonesia's Ministry of Communication and Information Technology (Kominfo) were also in attendance at the signing of the MOU, which followed a panel at the State of Piracy Summit hosted by AVIA and attended by representatives from Kominfo and AVISI.

The signing of the MOU comes at a time when CAP's most recent annual consumer surveys show that 54% of consumers in Indonesia access pirate services in 2023, the fourth highest incidence of piracy in the region. There is however growing awareness of the downsides of piracy with 94% of Indonesian consumers believing that online piracy has negative consequences, the highest percentage in the region, with damage to the creative industry being the biggest perceived negative impact.

Ajeng Parameswari, General Secretary of AVISI, emphasizing the core mission behind AVISI's inception: "AVISI was established to cultivate a thriving ecosystem for the digital-creative industry, one that harmonizes seamlessly with the video streaming business model. Yet, the primary challenge we confront today is the pervasive threat of piracy."

Ajeng further underscored the imperative for a collective, amplified response to piracy: "AVISI is delighted to announce a pivotal partnership with AVIA, aiming to widen the battle against piracy, transcending borders and safeguarding content not only within Indonesia but also on an international scale. The eradication of piracy is a shared responsibility, one that must resonate as a resounding deterrent to those who perpetrate it. In this endeavor, government support is pivotal."

The AVISI and AVIA partnership marks a significant milestone in the ongoing struggle against piracy, reaffirming AVISI's unwavering dedication to upholding a piracy-free digital-creative industry. Together, they pledge to strengthen defenses, promote legal access to content, and champion the rights of content creators, ensuring that creativity thrives and piracy recedes.

"We are delighted to join with AVISI to continue the fight against online video piracy," said Louis Boswell, CEO, AVIA. Boswell also noted, "Piracy is the single biggest problem the video industry faces and to solve the problem there has to be a multi-pronged approach. With the creation of AVISI, I believe we will have greater success and engagement with the industry in Indonesia to continue working towards solutions. And we have to acknowledge the great support of government with the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology (Kominfo) who have been such great partners in addressing and mitigating the problems of piracy. With our new relationship with AVISI and Kominfo support, I am more optimistic than ever that momentum is growing which will continue to stem the tide of piracy in Indonesia."
