Can Hong Kong emulate the success of Hangzhou’s tech titans?
Hong Kong faces financial challenges, but a key opportunity lies in fostering tech start-ups to drive new economic growth. The emergence of successful tech hubs like Hangzhou, with its "Six Little Dragons" including AI leaders DeepSeek and Unitree Robotics, raises the question of why Hong Kong hasn't seen similar success. It's crucial for Hong Kong to learn from these examples and cultivate a vibrant tech entrepreneurship ecosystem.
To become a global tech leader, Hong Kong needs to transform into a talent hub and innovation center. While the Northern Metropolis project aims to drive tech progress, its slow pace raises concerns. Adopting the mainland's zone-development model, assigning land parcels to developers, and leveraging the private market can boost efficiency and reduce costs, helping Hong Kong catch up and compete in the global tech arena.
