The Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year with a series of commemorative events. Two key events &ndash; the Next 60 Forum and 60th Anniversary Cocktail Reception &ndash; were held today, attracting over 1,000 guests from the political and business sectors. HKTDC Chairman Prof Frederick Ma personally invited several former Chairmen, including Dr Victor Fung, Peter Woo, Jack So and Vincent Lo, to serve as forum guests, while he himself served as the moderator. Together, they reviewed how the HKTDC has developed and looked ahead to future opportunities. Secretary for Justice of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), Paul Lam, officiated at the reception and joined leaders from various sectors in witnessing this important milestone.

HKTDC celebrates 60th anniversary with forum and cocktail reception

Established in 1966, the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) has evolved in tandem with Hong Kong. In the 1960s, Hong Kong shifted from being a trade entrep&ocirc;t to a vibrant manufacturing powerhouse. During this pivotal era, the HKTDC advanced Hong Kong&rsquo;s exports, championing local products across international markets. In the 1980s and 1990s, as Hong Kong transitioned to a service-led economy, the HKTDC furthered the city&rsquo;s reputation as a capital of world-class trade fairs and helped grow the burgeoning service sector. Following China's accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO) in 2001, the HKTDC promoted Hong Kong's role as a two-way platform &mdash; serving as both a gateway for overseas enterprises to invest in or enter the Chinese Mainland market and for mainland enterprises to go global. In the past decade, the HKTDC has capitalised on key national initiatives such as the Belt and Road Initiative and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) to promote Hong Kong&rsquo;s unique strengths and advantages as an international gateway. Through its role as superconnector and super value-adder, the HKTDC continues to drive growth and innovation for businesses in Hong Kong and beyond. Over 60 years, the HKTDC has thrived amidst global challenges and change. Looking ahead, the HKTDC remains committed to helping Hong Kong enterprises innovate and excel.
