On March 2, Veda AI was invited to attend the "One Park, Two Cities · Shenzhen-Hong Kong Co-creation" and the Launch of the Hetao Hong Kong Youth Science and Technology Innovation Valley held at the Shenzhen branch of the Hong Kong Science Park. As an artificial intelligence visual algorithm enterprise, we not only the important moment of Shenzhen-Hong Kong science and technology innovation cooperation on-site, but also captured a series of policy signals and market trends from the event that are highly valuable to medium-sized enterprises. Below are three pieces of good news we brought back from the scene, which we hope will provide a reference for fellow entrepreneurs striving in the Greater Bay Area.

Coffee robot "in operation" on-site, algorithms empower technology implementation

On the day of the event, in a corner of the exhibition area at the Hong Kong Park Shenzhen Campus, a coffee robot was busily picking up cups, grinding beans, brewing, and serving. The entire process was smooth and seamless, attracting many guests to stop and take or ask questions. Developed by a Chinese startup team, this robot utilizes advanced algorithmic technology in its key visual recognition and motion control processes. From its development in Beijing to its debut in, the "journey" of this coffee robot itself serves as a vivid footnote to cross-regional collaboration.

HK$10 billion injection   "Four Flows" integration: Policy dividends directly reach enterprises

In his speech, Sun Dong, Secretary for Innovation, Technology and of the HKSAR Government, revealed two key pieces of information: first, a new budget proposal has been submitted to the Legislative Council to request a HK$10 billion injection support the development of Hong Kong's industrial parks—including land development, infrastructure improvement, and the establishment of venture capital funds; second, Shenzhen and Hong Kong are actively exploring crossborder flow solutions for people, goods, capital, and data, striving to break down barriers to the flow of factors. These statements were met with rounds of applause from the audience

Over 80 companies have settled in, and the "1 1" model has become mainstream.

In his speech, Cha Yichao, of Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation, mentioned that since the Hong Kong Science Park Shenzhen Campus began operations two and a half years ago, it has accumulated over 80 resident, reaching near full capacity overall. More noteworthy is that over 80% of these companies are "1 1" enterprises registered simultaneously in both Hong Kong and Shenzhen. This that simultaneously deploying in both Shenzhen and Hong Kong has become a common strategy rather than a "special operation" for a few companies. The event also showcased the innovative achievements of 5 park enterprises, covering fields such as life and health, artificial intelligence, and advanced manufacturing, fully demonstrating the vitality of the dual-city synergy.

Conclusion: As Shenzhen-Hong Kong integration accelerates, enterprises should seize the momentum.

After attending this event, the biggest takeaway is that the integration Shenzhen and Hong Kong has moved from vision to reality, with policies, capital, talent, and technology converging at an accelerating pace. This trip allowed Weida AI not only to witness real-world application of its own algorithms in coffee robots but also to see the three major dividends that SMEs can leverage: technology landing in application scenarios, policy and financial support, and a dual-city ecosystem.

As an entrepreneur at the scene put it: "I used to think cross-border was difficult, but now I realize that as long as you choose right platform, the path is right beneath your feet." The launch of the Hetao Hong Kong Youth Science and Technology Valley is precisely such a new starting point. Moving forward,ida AI will continue to deepen its expertise in computer vision algorithms and collaborate with more hardware partners to create value through technology in various scenarios.
