To help high-tech enterprises broaden international outlook, seize the opportunities presented by the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area’s talent policies, and build a bridge for talent exchange and cooperation between Shaanxi and Hong Kong, a special seminar titled “An Overview of the Latest Policies under the Hong Kong Talent Scheme” was successfully held on the afternoon of September 21. The event was organized by the Xi’an High-Tech Enterprises Association and supported by the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region in Shaanxi.

This event featured special guest speakers, including the Head of Immigration Affairs at the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government’s Economic and Trade Office in Chengdu, as well as seasoned experts from EY in the fields of taxation and human capital, who delivered on-site presentations. The program focused on Hong Kong’s latest talentattraction policies, offering a systematic, comprehensive, and indepth analysis of key issues of great concern to businesses and professionals. In addition, the event provided tailored answers to participants’ questions and practical challenges, with content that was both policydriven, professionally rigorous, and highly actionable, attracting numerous corporate executives, core technical personnel, and elite talents aspiring to pursue career opportunities in Hong Kong.

During the Q&A session, Kang Kai, Deputy Director of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government’s Economic and Trade Office in Chengdu, fielded a range of questions from participating companies regarding the Talent Scheme for Mainland Professionals. Delegates actively raised inquiries on practical matters such as eligibility criteria for the Top Talent Pass, renewal of the scheme, pathways to permanent residency, and arrangements for duallocation employment, fostering a lively and engaging exchange.

This event represents a key initiative by the Xi’an High-Tech Enterprises Association to provide targeted support for the internationalization of its member companies. Moving forward, the Association will continue to serve as a bridge between government and enterprises and a vital conduit for resources, deepening regular collaborative partnerships with relevant institutions such as the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government’s Liaison Office in Shaanxi. By focusing on core needs—including cross-border talent deployment and international expansion—the Association will persistently organize tailored services such as policy briefings, resource matchmaking, and practical exchanges, helping Xi’an-based enterprises seize opportunities in the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area, attract top-tier international talent, and bolster the highquality development of the region’s hardtech industries.
