The 5th Greater Bay Area Outstanding Young Entrepreneurs Awards Ceremony was grandly held simultaneously in Hong Kong and Macao on August 27, 2024, with 126 award-winning young entrepreneurs receiving congratulations from leaders of the three jurisdictions and the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government in Hong Kong.
The prestigious ceremony was attended by over 3,000 participants both online and offline, including:
The Chief Executive highly commended the longstanding contributions of the Greater Bay Area Entrepreneurs Alliance, emphasizing that since its establishment, the Alliance has actively promoted cross-border collaboration among enterprises and created platforms for young talents to realize their potential in contributing to the high-quality development of the Greater Bay Area. He extended his best wishes for the Alliance's continued success.
Dr. Choi noted that with strong support from the three governments, the Alliance has consecutively organized the Outstanding Young Entrepreneurs Awards for five years, recognizing over 400 young pioneers in the Bay Area's development. This year's 126 awardees were selected through rigorous evaluation from more than 1,300 applicants. He highlighted that these entrepreneurs represent diverse industries but share the common distinction of incorporating new productive forces such as digital economy, green economy, and artificial intelligence into their businesses. The awardees include executives and founders from leading Chinese and international enterprises like Huawei, Hyundai Motor, Toray Industries, Deloitte, and Mahua FunAge, who are driving forces in the Bay Area's comprehensive reform and high-quality development.
