As a talent event jointly created and hosted by the governments of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao on a rotating basis, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Talent High-Quality Development Conference has been held in Guangzhou, Hong Kong and Macao since its inception in 2023, completing the first rotation in the three places and attracting more than one million online and offline participants.
The conference has successively promoted the signing of cooperation documents such as the "Greater Bay Area "9+2" Urban Talent Service Cooperation Memorandum" and established a normalized, multi-level, wide-area cooperation mechanism among the three places. Innovative measures to promote cross-border mobility of talents, such as cross-border practice and mutual recognition of qualifications, have been implemented one after another, and the talent integration between Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao has become increasingly in-depth.
In 2026, the conference will return to Guangdong and land in the "Innovation City" Dongguan, which is a vivid reflection of the continuous deepening of the rotation mechanism among the three places and the deepening and solidification of talent exchange and cooperation between Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao. This conference is jointly held with the finals of the 3rd Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Doctoral Postdoctoral Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition, achieving "conference and competition in one", with higher standards, heavier weight, and more highlights. At that time, relevant heads of national ministries and commissions, relevant heads of the governments of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, as well as top scientists, leading entrepreneurs and young talents from around the world will gather at the banks of Songshan Lake in Dongguan to stir up ideas and seek common development.
This conference will be held simultaneously with the finals of the Bay Area Bo Innovation Competition. The competition venue is the first venue for talent recruitment and project investment promotion. The organizer plans to integrate talent exchange and achievement transformation to build an efficient connection bridge for participating projects, high-level talents, industrial capital, and incubation parks. The winning projects can receive a package of services such as policy matching, investment and financing roadshows, and space incubation, forming a closed loop of "promoting introduction through competition, promoting innovation through competition, and connecting industry and talent" to promote the implementation and transformation of innovative achievements in the Bay Area, realize "two-way travel" between outstanding teams and Bay Area industries, and turn "event flow" into "talent retention."
This conference will set up special "open microphone", theme exhibitions, negotiation and docking, talent carnival and other sections. Among them, the theme exhibition section focuses on displaying the work achievements of talents from Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao and the cutting-edge scientific and technological achievements of the Bay Area, with leading enterprises, major scientific research platforms, and cutting-edge entrepreneurial projects on the same stage; the negotiation and docking section focuses on the precise docking of industry and talent, organizing key enterprises and major platforms to release talent attraction needs, and carrying out a series of activities such as talent recruitment, project negotiation, investment and financing docking, so that talents and opportunities can move from "face to face" to "hand in hand."
