Hong Kong Ready for More World-Class Conventions – Stepping into Tomorrow

Hong Kong’s prominence as a preferred destination for conventions has been reinforced by a series of wins in 2023, with experts in technology, medicine, finance, and education selecting the city for their events. These victories have solidified Hong Kong’s standing as a hub for academic exchanges and industry advancement.

The Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB) expressed its satisfaction with the surge in demand, acknowledging the positive impact on the local economy. The city’s status across various sectors, coupled with the opportunities offered by the Greater Bay Area (GBA), has contributed to its reputation as the “World’s Meeting Place.” Notable wins include the EDGE Global AI & Web3 Investment Summit 2023, which reflects Hong Kong’s prowess in hosting technology events, and the Insurtech Insights Asia 2023 Conference, emphasising the city’s strengths in insurance and insurtech. This year’s convention lineup also includes medical events such as the Asia Pacific Dental Congress and the Asia Pacific Heart Rhythm Society Scientific Session. The HKTB’s role in supporting these successes has been widely appreciated by organisers. In addition to exploring its achievements as a premier convention destination, participants also have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the rich cultural attractions in Hong Kong while holidaying at properties such as Cosmo Hotel Hong Kong.
