In these meetings, the delegates explored opportunities to enhance trade and investment and promoted Hong Kong's advantages and opportunities.The delegates also conducted a site visit to Lusail City to observe how I&T integrates with urban planning and infrastructure and to explore collaboration opportunities for Hong Kong's smart city solution providers. As the second largest city in Qatar, Lusail City is becoming one of the country's flagship smart cities due to its ICT-focused infrastructure facilities, which are under construction and nearing completion.During the visit to the Qatar Foundation and its subsidiaries, the delegates discussed potential partnerships, technology transfer opportunities, and programmes for supporting tech start-ups with entities such as the Qatar National Research Fund, Qatar Science & Technology Park, and Education City.
