The Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) has initiated a series of community-wide activities to celebrate its 60th anniversary, including a themed tram, a mobile design gallery, and special promotions. The activities aim to engage the public and highlight the HKTDC's role in linking Hong Kong with global markets.
A key feature of the celebration is the 60th anniversary-themed tram, which carries the theme 'Connect the World, Shape the Future.' The tram, now running across Hong Kong Island, symbolizes the HKTDC's continued efforts to connect Hong Kong with the world while partnering with stakeholders to shape the future. Professor Frederick Ma, HKTDC Chairman, and Sophia Chong, HKTDC Executive Director, joined senior management for a photo session with the tram.
Another initiative is the 'Design Gallery: 60 Celebratory Deals' campaign, which offers selected items at 40% off. The third round of this promotion is set for July, featuring over 20 products including a CARDHODA RFID coin and card holder, DITTO DITTO Hong Kong Skyline washi tape set, and a TACS stainless steel watch. These items are available through the Design Gallery online shop.
Additional activities include the 'Next 60 Forum' featuring the Chairman and former Chairmen, a cocktail reception with over 1,000 guests, and the '60 Book Fair Super Passes' during the Hong Kong Book Fair. The 'Food Expo VIP Tickets Giveaway' will also be held. Details will be announced on HKTDC's social media platforms.
The HKTDC's 60th anniversary celebration activities are detailed on the official anniversary page. The HKTDC, established in 1966, is a statutory body promoting Hong Kong's trade with over 50 offices globally. It organizes international exhibitions, conferences, and business missions to create opportunities for companies, especially SMEs.
