Chairman’s Message
It is my honor to serve as Chairman of the Hong Kong Exporters’ Association. With seven decades of rich heritage behind us, the HKEA has steadfastly championed our exporters — opening new markets, fostering meaningful connections, and strengthening Hong Kong’s position as a premier global trading hub.
At the HKEA, our vision is to build an ecosystem where exporters not only succeed out of necessity, but thrive through passion, innovation, and excellence. We are cultivating a dynamic environment where creativity meets commerce, empowering ideas to transcend borders and shape a transformative future.
I am privileged to celebrate the extraordinary talent and resilience of our exporters, who truly embody the entrepreneurial spirit of Hong Kong. Together with my dedicated General Committee members, we are doing more than responding to global demands — we are setting trends, forging vital partnerships, and reinforcing Hong Kong’s role as a “super-connector” in the evolving landscape of international trade.
As we look toward 2026 and beyond, the HKEA remains committed to empowering our community. We will continue to support manufacturers, designers, and innovators, while nurturing the next generation of talent that will define the future of trade.
I warmly invite you to join us in shaping this next chapter. Together, let us push boundaries, embrace innovation, and elevate Hong Kong’s presence on the world stage.
