Event Review

First Greater Bay Area Startup Salon

On July 11, 2026, the first Greater Bay Area Startup High-Quality Growth Closed-door Salon was held in Shenzhen Nanshan. The event brought together entrepreneurs, project teams, investors, industry resources and university research teams for direct and practical discussion.

Project Roadshows

Three projects shared their latest progress: an AI-driven quantitative trading strategy platform, low-noise propeller and rotor technology for low-altitude economy scenarios, and AI energy management with carbon asset digitalisation.

Hong Kong Government Funding Pathways

The discussion covered how companies can use Hong Kong resources for incubation and development. Funding and park resources are more likely to support projects that demonstrate real Hong Kong presence, local scenarios, R&D commitments, milestones and international value.

VC Perspective

Guest investors shared how early-stage technology companies should think about financing stages, product-market fit, commercialisation, team execution, growth logic and long-term capital planning.

AI Enterprise Empowerment

Participants discussed how AI tools can improve SME productivity in content generation, customer follow-up, meeting summaries, business plan optimisation, market research, coding, presentation design and office automation.

The salon will continue as a small-scale, high-density exchange platform for founders, project teams, investors, industry resources and professional service institutions.
