September 17, 2025
Hong Kong's talent landscape is resilient and full of potential! Our C-Suite Talent Survey reveals some powerful positives:
- Strong Fundamentals: Hong Kong’s low tax regime, world-class infrastructure, and role as a gateway to China and Asia remain top draws for global talent.
- Local Strengths: The local workforce is highly valued for its strong work ethic, resilience, and bilingual capabilities.
- Future-Focused: Companies are prioritising skills-based hiring (56%) and see AI proficiency and international exposure as critical for future growth.
Areas to build on? The path forward is clear. To maintain our position as Asian’s No 1 talent hub, we must collectively:
- Address the cost of living, especially housing affordability.
- Bridge critical skills gaps in mid-level specialists and leadership pipelines.
- Elevate our international branding to showcase Hong Kong’s stability and opportunities.
The consensus is optimistic—Hong Kong has all the ingredients to thrive. It will take aligned efforts from government, business, and the community to unlock our full potential.
