Since the first Belt and Road Summit in 2016, more than 700 distinguished speakers from over 30 countries and regions have shared their insights at the Summit. Over 660 exhibitors have showcased a wide range of professional services and investment projects, attracting more than 45,000 participants from over 120 countries and regions.

Algernon Yau, Secretary for Commercial and Economic Development, said: "The Belt and Road Initiative (B&RI) has been put into practice, turning an idea into action and a vision into reality. The HKSAR Government contributes to the B&RI in various areas, and actively participates in the eight major steps to support Belt and Road development. Since 2013, Hong Kong's merchandise trade with Belt and Road countries and regions has grown substantially by nearly 80%, which is 3.2 times the growth rate of Hong Kong's external merchandise trade during the same period, reaching about US$280 billion. This demonstrates Hong Kong's capabilities as an international trade and investment hub, and highlights the growth potential of Belt and Road markets. The theme of this year's Summit is “Collaborate for change ‧ Shape a shared future”. We will further enhance Hong Kong's role in taking forward the B&RI, raising the awareness of the B&RI among different sectors of the community and helping them to capture Belt and Road opportunities."
