When attending the award ceremony of the first "urban innovation and technology challenge" finals on the 16th, the chief executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Carrie Lam, expressed confidence that Hong Kong's future innovation and technology development will make Hong Kong an international innovation and technology center and keep pace with the status of an international financial center. Lin zhengyue'e pointed out that in the past four years, the SAR government has followed eight policy directions to promote the development of innovation and science, and has invested more than HK $130 billion to implement a number of projects. The development of innovation and Science in Hong Kong has also been recognized and supported by the state. In the outline of the 14th five year plan, the state clearly supports Hong Kong in building an international innovation and technology center. Lin zhengyue'e said that at present, Hong Kong's science and technology undertakings are vibrant. There are about 900 science and technology enterprises and start-ups in the Hong Kong Science Park, and more than 10000 people gather here. She stressed that Hong Kong needs to maintain this good momentum and strive to establish a more complete innovation and science ecosystem. Therefore, the latest policy address puts forward relevant further measures, including increasing a total of about 150 hectares of creative and scientific land through the planned northern metropolitan area, building Xintian science and Technology City, and establishing a "life and health innovation and scientific research center". In order to encourage innovation and technology to solve people's livelihood problems, in her 2018 policy address, Lin Zheng Yuee proposed to hold the "urban innovation and technology challenge" to publicly invite all walks of life to put forward innovation and technology solutions on issues closely related to people's lives. The first "urban university of innovation and technology challenge" was launched in December 2020. With the theme of "smart creating a new normal in Hong Kong", all circles were invited to provide innovation and science solutions on the two topics of "sustainable environmental development" and "maintaining social contact". It was divided into four groups: primary school group, secondary school group, University / college group and open group, and more than 740 participating schemes were received, More than 1250 participants participated individually or in teams. Lam Cheng Yuet Yee said that the purpose of the SAR government's science creation competition is, on the one hand, to cultivate young talents; On the other hand, it is hoped that through financial support, innovative ideas can be put into practice and tested in public organizations and government departments.
