Recently, trade frictions have risen again, and Hong Kong's export performance has continued to weaken, which has hit SMEs' confidence in business prospects. Bi Jianwen, President of the Hong Kong Productivity Council (HKPC), said that he is very concerned about the impact of trade friction on the business community in Hong Kong and provides the Six Proposals for Businesses to help SMEs reduce their business risks.
The first is to set up a “BUD Special Fund” to expand ASEAN and domestic sales. The two projects can receive up to 1 million yuan respectively, and the maximum number of funded projects has also increased to 10. Secondly, enterprises can train up to two-thirds of tuition fees through the “Re-industrialization and Technology Training Program” to train “Industry 4.0” and “Enterprise 4.0” professionals. The maximum funding for each financial year is 500,000 yuan.
At the same time, it provided Dawan District government funding, including Dongguan upgrade and transformation counseling, which was raised to 600,000 yuan. Zhongshan and Zhuhai also received 39 million yuan. In addition, HKPC experts will provide automation and clean production technical support to help Hong Kong companies expand their overseas markets and production lines.
In addition, through the Creative Thinking Workshop, we promote the world's top product development model to Hong Kong companies and promote the development of digital manufacturing. Finally, SME One “SME One Stop” provides the latest information on trade conflict support measures.
