QIANHAI IMPROVES BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT TO BETTER SERVE HONG KONG WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS

KUALA LUMPUR, June 20 (Bernama) -- An event themed ‘Chinese with the Same Root; Carnival of Shenzhen-Hong Kong Hand-in-hand’ was held recently in Qianhai, South China's Guangdong province, and live-broadcast in Hong Kong and Macao simultaneously.

Attended by Hong Kong female entrepreneurs from Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Youth Innovation and Entrepreneur Hub (QSHKYIEH), the event was to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Hong Kong's return to the motherland, according to Authority of Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Modern Service Industry Cooperation Zone.

According to a statement, ‘Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Development Strategy-National Women Entrepreneur and Innovation Base’ was established by QSHKYIEH in 2019 and up until now, the base has incubated a total of 41 female entrepreneurial teams.

To date, the female entrepreneurs from Hong Kong are playing an important role among the Qianhai youth entrepreneurs. 

An example is Sisley Cheng, vice president of the Qianhai's Hong Kong Chamber of Commerce and a leader of the QSHKYIEH-National Women Entrepreneur and Innovation Base. 

“What attracts me here is the beautiful environment, pleasant greenery and modern cityscape. It's also easy to get around. My company in Hong Kong is very close to Qianhai, normally a half-hour drive,” said Cheng who started living in Qianhai in 2018.

In addition, Hong Kong women entrepreneurs in Qianhai are busier than one can imagine. Ruby Fang is among these busy bees.

From studying law overseas to making a complete career change to becoming a professional fashion designer, Fang has never lacked a halo: Hong Kong's Ten Outstanding Young Persons, founder of Ruby Fang haute couture clothing brand, etc.

To better serve Hong Kong entrepreneurial women, Qianhai is said to improve its business environment constantly. Lately, it has carried out the ‘Talent Service and Support Program’, integrating 451 services for international talents in government, business and life, forming a full coverage of public talent services in Qianhai.

 Qianhai's benign business environment and friendly atmosphere give Hong Kong businesswomen who have come to make their dreams bigger more confidence and thinking about the future.
