Innaugural InnoEX Hosted Apr. 12-15 to Promote Hong Kong Innovation & Tech

Hong Kong's growing strength as a centre for technology and innovation, and the increasing demand for smart city technologies, have prompted the first-ever Innovation and Technology (InnoEX) exhibition in the city.

The event will be held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC) from Apr. 12 to 15 and is aimed at facilitating a platform for exchange and cooperation in innovation and technology. It is expected to attract more than 2,600 exhibitors from 19 countries and regions.

The inaugural InnoEX is the flagship event of Business of Innovation and Technology Week (BITWeek), driven by the Hong Kong Government and Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC). The themes of the exhibition include Smart City, Smart Economy, Smart Environment, Smart Government, Smart Living, and Smart Mobility.

Over 100 innovative solutions for driving the smart city development in Hong Kong, including technology solutions adopted by government departments and winning exhibits from local innovators, the Smart Hong Kong Pavilion, will be presented at InnoEX.

Furthermore, AI & robotics projects undertaken by 14 research laboratories in collaboration with world-renowned universities under InnoHK will be showcased by the Innovation and Technology Commission.

Ayesha Khanna, CEO of Addo AI and strategic advisor on AI, smart cities, and the metaverse, will be a keynote speaker of InnoEX Forum, providing insights on how companies can utilise AI and automation to stay ahead of the competition.

Over 60 government officials from ASEAN and Mainland China, responsible for promoting smart city development, will participate in the ASEAN Roundtable, where they will share their experiences with representatives from the HKSAR Government and exhibitors from different countries and regions.
