陈茂波：香港下周推出首个五年规划公众咨询，聚焦“AI+”和“金融+”两个策略方向

Odaily reports that the Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government, Paul Chan, stated in his blog that the government will launch Hong Kong's first five-year plan public consultation on June 15 next week, lasting for two months. This plan aims not only to enhance economic development momentum and promote better technological applications but also to achieve a more inclusive and equitable society, where citizens enjoy more quality job opportunities and a better life. "AI+" and "Finance+" are two strategic directions worth in-depth exploration. AI is no longer solely about the innovation and technology industry itself; it plays a key role in enhancing the competitiveness of various industries. For finance, it can strengthen data analysis, risk management, and customer service. Meanwhile, "Finance+" means leveraging Hong Kong's full-chain financing functions, including building a more robust patient capital system, to inject development momentum into cutting-edge technology enterprises.
