To celebrate its 60th anniversary, the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) has rolled out a series of community-wide activities, including a themed tram, design gallery offers, and forums. The initiatives aim to engage the public and underscore the HKTDC's role in linking Hong Kong with global markets.
Professor Frederick Ma, HKTDC Chairman, and Sophia Chong, HKTDC Executive Director, along with senior management, attended a photo session for the 60th anniversary-themed tram. The limited-edition tram, featuring the anniversary theme 'Connect the World, Shape the Future,' is now running across Hong Kong Island. It symbolizes the HKTDC's continued role in connecting Hong Kong with the global market while partnering with stakeholders to shape the future.
Among the celebratory initiatives, the 'Design Gallery: 60 Celebratory Deals' campaign is being held and will launch its third round of promotion in July, featuring more than 20 selected items at 40% off. The offer covers a wide range of categories, including gifts, homeware, and fashion accessories. Featured items include a CARDHODA RFID coin and card holder, a DITTO DITTO Hong Kong Skyline pattern washi tape set, a FAUX X MARIKO JESSE Hong Kong Toile Bone China Mug, PAIR PAIR FULL 'Weaving the Future' socks, and a TACS stainless steel watch. These products allow the public to purchase creative items at attractive prices while experiencing the design excellence of Hong Kong.
Other anniversary activities will be rolled out progressively, including '60 Book Fair Super Passes' during the Hong Kong Book Fair and 'Food Expo VIP Tickets Giveaway.' These initiatives will celebrate HKTDC's milestone with the wider community. Details will be announced on HKTDC's social media platforms.
The HKTDC also organized the 'Next 60 Forum' featuring the Chairman and former Chairmen, as well as a '60th Anniversary cocktail reception' attended by over 1,000 guests. These events reflect the council's commitment to fostering trade and business opportunities.
