Since 2011, The HKTDC has hosted the flagship event, SmartHK, in various mainland cities, including Guangzhou, Jinan, Chengdu, Fuzhou and Hangzhou. In 2020, SmartHK returned to Chengdu, with a focus on promoting Hong Kong as a hub for innovation and technology, as well as facilitating the connection between Hong Kong enterprises and potential partners in Sichuan. This year, in view of the epidemic, SmartHK was held in a mixed mode, combining offline and online live broadcasting.
