貿發局曼谷「成就機遇,首選香港」展覽會於7月13至14日舉行,展示香港作為區內創新中心的無限潛力,活動獲泰國政府和商界領袖熱烈反應,吸引了來自八個東盟地區超過二千個商界訪客,商會及團體參觀。智慧城市聯盟在場內設置「香港智慧生活展館」,展示香港公司的智慧建造科技、機械人泊車系統、智慧樓宇設施檢測系統、室內三維空間管理系統、室內環境智能監察系統、智能家居裝置,和生物毒性測試科技。

曼谷「成就機遇,首選香港」是復常後首個海外旗艦香港商貿推廣活動,SCC會長楊文銳表示,大會的組織工作及安排理想,主辦機構在曼谷進行了大範圍宣傳,並邀請曼谷市長等光臨,有助吸引當地商界。最值得高興的是,泰國負責推廣數字經濟和智慧城市發展的機構depa的最高負責人及其團隊都來參觀香港智慧城市展館。楊文銳表示,透過是次到曼谷參展和用家接觸,得悉泰國積極發展數字經濟和智慧城市項目(詳情 請按此),合資格智慧城市項目會獲泰 國政府資助;截至2023年7月共有123份智慧城市提案,當中30個已獲正式申報為“智慧城市”,其餘九十多個内容仍待調校中;這些項目對智慧城市科技有很大需求,SCC會繼續和depa跟進如何引進香港的技術,為香港公司在泰國製造更多商機。

香港智慧生活館參展商全都在展會收到商務查詢,他們對是次参展表示滿意,有近六成表示是次參展有助他們開拓泰國市場,近六成表示對籌劃未來方向有幫助,超過四成表示有助他們在泰國建立生意夥伴。

是次展會為期兩天,超過八成半香港智慧生活館展商表示足夠,另有近一成半公司希望展期長些。所有公司都表示會再參加同類活動。

該SCC項目由工業貿易署「工商機構支援基金」撥款資助,香港軟件行業協會和香港資訊科技聯會為合作機構。

SCC mounted a “Hong Kong Smart Living Pavilion” at “Think Business, Think Hong Kong on 13-14 July in Bangkok, introducing HK companies’ Smart Environment Sensing System, Smart Aircon & Fan Circulation, Smart Indoor Mapping & Digital Twins, AI Building Inspection, Smarter Testing, Smart Construction, and AGV Robotic Parking. Organized by the HK Trade Development Council, the two-day event received enthusiastic response from Thai government and business leaders, attracting over 2,000 business visitors from eight ASEAN countries, including their local chambers and associations.

SCC President Gary Yeung expressed satisfaction over the event organization and city-wide promotion. He felt encouraged to receive Governor of Bangkok and head of Digital Economy Promotion Agency of Thailand at the SCC Pavilion. SCC and our exhibitors were excited to learn that Thailand is actively developing digital economy and smart city projects (please click here for details). As of July 2023, a total of 123 smart city proposals had been submitted, and 30 of them have passed the criteria and got the “Smart City Logo” from the government. These projects are badly in need of the latest smart city solutions and technologies. SCC will follow-up with depa to explore how HK technology companies can capture these opportunities.

Exhibitors of SCC pavilion expressed satisfaction over their participation; all of them received business enquiries on-the-spot. By participating in the two-day event, about 57% of SCC pavilion exhibitors said they could know more about the Thai market, another 57% said they could make a better marketing plan, while 43% of them believed they could establish business contacts there.

86% of SCC pavilion exhibitors found the duration of two-day show appropriate while the rest hoped it could be longer. All exhibitors expressed interest in joining similar events again.

The SCC project is funded by the Trade and Industrial Organisation Support Fund (TSF), while the HK Software Industry Association (HKSiA) and HK Information Technology Joint Council (HKITJC) are Collaborating Organisations.
