Conference organiser paid tribute to the Hong Kong Convention Ambassador (HKCA) programme initiated by the Hong Kong Tourism Board, which helped them decide on the best location.

A rich programme of cross-boundary exchange and excursions also took place, thanks to the city’s superior connectivity to Mainland China with its extensive road, bridge and rail network.
