Subsidies & Support
HKSAR Government Convention & Exhibition Industry Subsidy Scheme
To assist companies in exploring markets and business opportunities, the HKSAR Government has launched a subsidy scheme to assist independent organisers to be passed on to exhibitors – local or overseas, large or small, to participate in trade exhibitions. This subsidy will be applied on a pro-rata basis to all expo showcase booths or shared pavilions by the organiser of ReThink HK 2021.
Double funding!
Local companies, if eligible, may also apply for the Dedicated Fund on Branding, Upgrading and Domestic Sales (BUD Fund) or the SME Export Marketing Fund (EMF) for funding on a matching basis for exhibition-related expenses.
