HKPC “SME ReachOut: FUND Fair plus Tech Sourcing 2025” All-round Support for SMEs to “Get Fund & Tech” and “Go Global”

(2 Oct 2025, Hong Kong) In active response to the policies on supporting the small and medium enterprises (SMEs), the Hong Kong Productivity Council (HKPC) is partnering with the Trade and Industry Department (TID) to host the annual signature event, "SME ReachOut: FUND Fair plus Tech Sourcing 2025", on 16 and 17 October 2025 at the HKPC Building. Featuring "FUND Tech Go", this year's Expo aims to provide a one-stop resource matching platform for the city's nearly 360,000 SMEs. The event will feature over 80 exhibition booths from funding organisations, technology service providers, and industry organisations, assisting businesses in capitalising on opportunities in areas such as "go global," artificial intelligence (AI), digital transformation, cross-border e-commerce, and intellectual property (IP).

The “2025 Policy Address” further strengthens support for SMEs, including an injection of $1.43 billion into the BUD Fund and expand its geographical scope to cover eight more economies, including the Belt and Road countries. The Expo actively supports the initiatives outlined in the Policy Address, from helping SMEs embrace digitalisation and green to boost competitiveness amid economic transition, to empowering them in exploring new markets and pursuing new growth areas. The significant demand for Government funding and technology upgrading services is clearly reflected by the attendance of over 66,000 participants across the previous four Expos.

5 Thematic Zones & 3 New Main Elements, Combining with Immersive Digital Experiences
This year’s expo will feature five thematic zones—Grab Fund, Go Global, Go Green, Go AI & Digital, and eCommerce LIVE & RetailTech. It will also focus on three emerging areas: AI, new retail technology, and IP Branding. In addition, the event will include immersive digital experiences for the first time, such as live demonstration by KOLs, interactive eCommerce displays, and the demonstrations of “AI virtual human”, enabling attendees to interactively learn about the latest tech applications and helping SMEs grasp the latest marketing trends and transformation solutions. To cater to the needs of chambers of commerce and corporate groups, the event will offer exclusive guided tours. These tours, led by dedicated guides through the five thematic zones, will provide support for sustainable digital transformation and market opening-up of the SMEs.
