Invest Hong Kong announced the launch of the Task Force on Supporting Mainland Enterprises in Going Global’s thematic website today.

The website offers one-stop information and professional support for Mainland enterprises seeking to expand into overseas markets via Hong Kong and aims to assist them in making effective use of the city’s various international advantages in planning and implementing their go-global strategies and exploring new opportunities.

It also consolidates key information for Mainland enterprises going global, including the GoGlobal Task Force’s member list and support services; promotional events held by the Task Force on the Mainland and in Hong Kong; success stories of Mainland enterprises going global via Hong Kong; practical resources; and the first phase of the cross-sector professional services platform launched on the same day by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council.

As one of the new measures announced in the 2026-27 Budget, the platform brings together service providers from Hong Kong in eight major sectors – finance, legal, accounting, branding and marketing, logistics, communication technology, infrastructure and real estate, and testing and certification.

The platform will match Mainland enterprises with suitable Hong Kong service providers, offering one-stop professional support for their global expansion.

The list of service providers on the platform incorporates professional opinions from the Expert Committee on Professional Services for Going Global led by the Deputy Secretary for Justice, relevant members of the GoGlobal Task Force, professional bodies and industry organisations. It will be regularly updated as needed.

Secretary for Commerce & Economic Development Algernon Yau said that the cross-bureau, cross-departmental and cross-organisation GoGlobal Task Force, launched in October last year, serves as a one-stop platform and the best partner for Mainland enterprises to go global.

“We encourage Mainland enterprises to make good use of Hong Kong’s international advantages in finance, trade, professional services, innovation and technology, and talent to assist them in expanding their business in the global market,” Mr Yau said.

Deputy Secretary for Justice Cheung Kwok-kwan remarked that the Department of Justice (DoJ) earlier released the inaugural edition of the “Collection of Success Stories: Hong Kong’s Professional Services Supporting Chinese Mainland Enterprises Going Global” (bilingual in Chinese and English), which is available on the DoJ website.

The DoJ will prepare a list of Hong Kong legal professional services providers with detailed classifications of practice areas and publish the list on the GoGlobal Task Force’s thematic website, leveraging its one-stop service platform advantages to provide enterprises with comprehensive and accurate information.
