Building on the solid foundation established during high-level exchanges between Heilongjiang and Macao earlier this year, and coinciding with the “34^th Harbin International Economic and Trade Fair”, the Commerce and Investment Promotion Institute (IPIM), in collaboration with the Economic Development Bureau of the Guangdong-Macao In-depth Co-operation Zone in Hengqin and the Macau Association of Banks, conducted a series of investment promotion activities in Harbin from 14 May 2025.

On 15 May, the Macao-Hengqin delegation, along with the Department of Commerce of Heilongjiang Province, the CCIPT Heilongjiang Committee, and the CCPIT Harbin Council jointly held the “Going Global - Macao Investment Opportunity Matching Conference”. The event attracted active participation from 53 enterprises across various sectors in Heilongjiang, including grain, big health, and manufacturing, among which were well-known publicly listed companies and Fortune 500 firms.

Many companies gained in-depth insights into Macao's advantages as a free port, its international business network, specialised financial services, the policy opportunities in Hengqin, and the investment potential in Macao-Hengqin. They said that this event provided substantial support for their plans to establish operations in Macao-Hengqin and expand their international business and market presence through Macao. Furthermore, they highlighted that industrial co-operation could drive appropriate diversification of Macao's economy, achieving mutual benefits.

The Macao-Hengqin delegation also visited prominent local agricultural enterprises, well-known pharmaceutical companies, and associations in the biopharmaceutical industry. They conducted on-site inspections and engaged in detailed discussions on topics such as cross-border trade in grain, the transformation of traditional Chinese medicine technology, international certification, and market expansion, further strengthening the determination and confidence of enterprises to venture abroad through the Macao-Hengqin platform.
