As the core hub for the regional development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, Guangzhou has been devoting continuous efforts in offering all-around services for the development of Hong Kong and Macao youths in Guangzhou.

The city has taken the lead in releasing the first comprehensive policy document to support Hong Kong and Macao youths' development among all Greater Bay Area cities in the Chinese mainland. A total of 18 plans and detailed implementation rules have been put forward at both the municipal and district levels, covering various areas spanning base construction, as well as preferential individual income taxation and housing.

More demonstrative innovation and entrepreneurship bases for Hong Kong and Macao youths in Guangzhou will be cultivated and the first batch of five municipal demonstrative bases has been rewarded with 1 million yuan ($148,203.35) each every year.
