Attendees discussed pressing issues of how to integrate into the Greater Bay Area's development, the employment and entrepreneurship environment in the Chinese mainland, finding more employment and entrepreneurship opportunities in Zhuhai, as well as optimizing policy publicity. 

The latest achievements and future development strategies of Zhuhai's Hong Kong and Macao youth innovation and entrepreneurship bases, such as the Guangdong Zhuhai Public Entrepreneurship Incubation (Training) Base, Macao-Hengqin Youth Entrepreneurship Valley, as well as National Food Safety Innovation Center (Hengqin), were discussed during the event. 

Of note, the Zhuhai Taiwan, Hong Kong, & Macao Affairs Bureau has been attaching great importance to the development of young people from Hong Kong and Macao in Zhuhai since 2022, making contributions to building Zhuhai into a youth-friendly city.

The bureau will further add to Zhuhai's preferential policies for young people from Hong Kong and Macao regarding employment and entrepreneurship, industrial orientations, as well as social insurance to increase the city's attractiveness.
