Lam said that Hong Kong serves as an important channel connecting the country and the international community and the "dual circulation" development strategy will bring unlimited opportunities to Hong Kong companies.

Lam said that the GoGBA one-stop platform will help Hong Kong companies to gain access to market information of various cities in the Greater Bay Area, and to build a broader business network.
