Among the highlights of the fiscal year were 14 new exhibitions and 20 new conferences successfully held at the HKCEC for the first time. These events included the Hong Kong Cat Expo 2023, the Asian Sporting and Outdoor Products Show, Hong Kong Holiday & Travel Expo 2024, Greentech Summit 2024, the Asia Pacific Spine Society Congress 2024, and the International Council for Commercial Arbitration Congress 2024.

Monica Lee-Müller, managing director of Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (Management) Limited, expressed satisfaction with the results, noting that the number of events returning to the HKCEC had reached over 80 per cent of pre-Covid levels. She attributed this success to the venue’s efficient operations, professional workforce, and dedicated business development efforts.

Looking ahead, HKCEC has already secured several new exhibitions and international conferences for the fiscal year 2024-2025. Notable events include Consensus 2025, a major gathering of the digital assets, blockchain, and Web3 communities; and the International Society for Stem Cell Research 2025 Annual Meeting.
