The Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) today officially opened its seven flagship lifestyle and licensing events. The Hong Kong Gifts & Premium Fair, Home InStyle and Fashion InStyle are being held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC), while the Hong Kong International Printing & Packaging Fair and DeLuxe PrintPack Hong Kong at AsiaWorld-Expo, from today until 30 April. The Hong Kong International Licensing Show and Asian Licensing Conference are running concurrently from today until 29 April, also at HKCEC. Together, the six trade fairs have attracted some 5,600 exhibitors from over 30 countries and regions. HKTDC Executive Director Sophia Chong said: "Hong Kong has long served as the key gateway for global businesses connecting with the Chinese Mainland, playing the role of super connector and super value-adder that bridges the Chinese Mainland's vast market with the rest of the world. Backed by its solid strengths, well developed innovation ecosystem and robust intellectual property infrastructure, Hong Kong is the ideal base for companies to grow their businesses, pursue creativity and innovation, and bring them to commercial fruition."
Creative gifts and home products converge; Gifts & Premium Fair and Home InStyle serve as platforms for new product launches
The Gifts & Premium Fair and Home InStyle continue to offer buyers a diverse range of gifts and home products spanning cultural creativity, sustainability, innovative materials and gerontechnology. Selected highlights from both fairs are brought together on the new "Reimagine" themed floor at HKCEC Hall 5, giving buyers a one-stop overview of the latest global trends in lifestyle homeware and gifting products, while inspiring the industry to envision future product possibilities with fresh perspectives and inspiration.
Both fairs are also attracting exhibitors to unveil latest products.
