Resilience Through Innovation

Being a global financial and business center with much success to visionary leaders who have led innovation and economic growth, Hong Kong is definitely an economist’s business heaven. They are the examples of the resilience and adaptability and strategic foresight, who are making Hong Kong a gateway between East and West. They can successfully tap into Hong Kong’s strengths as a location. The region has such a robust legal system, world class infrastructure, and proximity to mainland China, that it has unparalleled opportunities. These factors have been well capitalized on by business leaders who put up thriving enterprises in the finance, logistics, technology and real estate sectors, making Hong Kong the international city of excellence.

It is innovation that is key to their success. It is not just about fintech, smart city development, and sustainable practices. Many leaders have been embracing cutting edge technology. They cultivate a culture of forward thinking, so that their companies stay competitive in fast changing markets worldwide. Many of Hong Kong's businesses put this commitment to innovation forward, positioning Hong Kong businesses at the cutting edge of industry trends, attracting international partnerships and investments. A second hallmark is that they are all focused on corporate social responsibility. What these leaders understand is that, in order to balance profit with purpose, they are taking initiatives that have social and environmental impacts. They either create sustainable value for society through philanthropy, community engagement or green innovation. Geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainty have not dented Hong Kong’s business leaders’ resilience.

It is with the view of staying updated with the emerging trends in the region’s business landscape that Asia Business Outlook has come up with a special issue containing stories of leaders who have demonstrated their capability through their expertise. To strengthen the business landscape with their tightly-knit and result-oriented approach, they are setting new standards of effectiveness.
