A Hong Kong delegation led by trade officials visited Dongguan to explore artificial intelligence, low-altitude economy developments, and smart retail applications. The group toured Huawei's base and a robotics hub, discussing data security and AI governance.

The approximately 50-member group was received by Dongguan municipal government officials.
The delegation visited the XbotPark robotics base in Dongguan's Songshan Lake area, where local officials briefed them on the city's artificial intelligence (AI) and low-altitude economy development. Participants also tested innovative technology products developed by companies incubated at the base.
The group then toured Huawei's Songshan Lake campus, including the Sanyapo Library and the Enterprise Business Descartes Exhibition Hall, to learn about the company's technology research and development achievements and its corporate culture of innovation. Delegates held a thematic exchange with Huawei representatives on the application of AI technology and data security governance in smart retail.
