Education key to innovation and talent development. Financial Secretary

Financial Secretary Paul Chan said technological innovation and youth talent development are intrinsically linked, with education playing a key role in the relationship.

Writing in his weekly blog, Chan said he invited more than a dozen elementary school students to explore a newly launched "Hong Kong Tech Showcase" pop-up zone at the ongoing book fair.

The exhibition features cutting-edge innovations across education, health, sports and food sectors.

The finance chief said the goal was to ignite students' curiosity by giving them firsthand experience with technology development and application, potentially opening doors to deeper scientific and technological learning.
