To mark its 60th anniversary, the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) has unveiled a series of community-wide activities, including a themed tram, a mobile design gallery, and special promotions. The initiatives aim to engage the public and underscore the HKTDC's role in linking Hong Kong with global markets.
The 60th anniversary-themed tram, featuring the HKTDC's anniversary theme 'Connect the World, Shape the Future,' is now running across Hong Kong Island. The tram brings the celebratory spirit into the community, symbolising the HKTDC's continued role in linking Hong Kong with the global market while partnering with stakeholders to shape the future. Professor Frederick Ma, HKTDC Chairman, and Sophia Chong, HKTDC Executive Director, joined members of senior management for a photo session with the tram.
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, allowing the public to purchase creative products at attractive prices while experiencing Hong Kong's design excellence. The Design Gallery online shop is available at https://dghk-eshop.hktdc.com/.
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 also celebrate HKTDC's important milestone with the wider community. Details will be announced on HKTDC's social media platforms.
The anniversary celebrations also include the 'Next 60 Forum,' featuring the Chairman and former Chairmen, and a '60th Anniversary cocktail reception' attended by over 1,000 guests. The HKTDC, a statutory body established in 1966, promotes, assists and develops Hong Kong's trade. With over 50 offices globally, including 13 in the Chinese Mainland, the HKTDC promotes Hong Kong as a two-way global investment and business hub.
