Hong Kong's Strategic Role in the Belt and Road Initiative

Hong Kong's strategic position as a global trade and financial centre is highlighted by its key role in the Belt and Road Initiative (B&RI). The region's trade with Belt and Road economies surged by 78% from 2013 to 2024, stressing its importance in the global trade network.

To capitalize on these opportunities, the Hong Kong SAR Government has focused on strengthening ties with various economies through high-level delegations and the annual Belt and Road Summit. Recent missions to Indonesia and Malaysia emphasize collaborations in infrastructure and technology, showcasing Hong Kong’s strengths as a "super connector".

Key projects, like i2Cool's energy-efficient systems and a new data centre in Jakarta, illustrate Hong Kong's influence in fostering partnerships. The upcoming 10th Belt and Road Summit further cements Hong Kong's pivotal role in international business cooperation.
