Chief Executive John Lee and a delegation from the Hong Kong government arrived in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, yesterday (April 22) for a four-day visit. This morning (April 23), Lee and his team visited the Hangzhou Future Sci-Tech City Urban Exhibition Hall to learn about developments in smart cities and artificial intelligence.
Lee shared on social media that the exhibition featured special displays for the delegation, showcasing the core achievements and cutting-edge technologies of the "Hangzhou Six Little Dragons." Representatives from six innovative companies - DeepSeek, Unitree, Game Science, DeepRobotics, BrainCo, and ManyCore - introduced their advancements in fields like large language models, robotics, AI, game development, and brain-computer interfaces.
Later, Lee and his team engaged in discussions with representatives from these companies, learning more about their development experiences and potential collaborations with Hong Kong. Notably, Wang Qixin from Unitree and Zhu Hao, co-founder and CTO of ManyCore, attended the recent World Internet Conference Asia-Pacific Summit held in Hong Kong. Lee expressed gratitude for their support of Hong Kong's innovation and technology development, welcoming the "Hangzhou Six Little Dragons" to establish or expand their businesses in Hong Kong and strengthen cooperation with local enterprises.
Additionally, this morning, Lee visited the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine to understand the operation of smart hospitals and the latest developments in medical technology, including new treatments for malignant blood diseases and the use of AI for precise clinical diagnosis. He experienced the convenience and practicality of AI through automated medication delivery systems and advanced robotic surgery systems.
Lee emphasized that the foundation of innovation and technology development is research capability, aimed at practical applications that benefit the public. In last year's policy address, he proposed increasing investment and leading market funds into emerging industries like AI, robotics, semiconductors, and smart devices, as well as developing the low-altitude economy. The government is also promoting digital transformation within public services, using AI to assist with paperwork and citizen inquiries. He believes the recent "AI boom" will gradually integrate into the daily lives of citizens.
