The event aimed to foster connections and dialogue between professionals from Hong Kong and Tokyo. The evening featured rich and diverse programming—from an opening networking session to a series of keynote presentations, followed by a Hong Kong cultural showcase and authentic Hong Kong cuisine that left participants with lasting memories. Topics covered were equally varied: Dr. Timothy Hassan, Director of AYOI Consultancy, explored "Hong Kong's Latest Business Opportunities and Challenges"; Dr. Clive Lee, Founder of Phoenix Foundation, spoke on "Promoting Wellness Through Arts: The Hong Kong Experience"; Graduate student of Sophia University & Content creator Berry (Berry In Japan) shared her personal experience of "Living in Japan as a Foreigner: Navigating Cultural Differences"; and Founder of Gagnons Co., Ltd., Mr. Philip H. Liu introduced "Appreciating Chinese Culture Through Authentic Bone China." These perspectives inspired attendees to reflect on professional growth and cross-cultural understanding.
The event integrated AI-powered real-time simultaneous English–Japanese interpretation, allowing Japanese participants to engage more deeply with the content and exemplifying AYOI's commitment to innovation and bridging language barriers.
Organizing the event overseas posed challenges such as limited resources, technical requirements, and logistical constraints, yet the team demonstrated professionalism and dedication, ensuring a seamless experience. Many attendees shared that the evening was not only a professional networking opportunity but also a deeply moving experience of cultural exchange and friendship.
Reflecting on the event, Dr. Timothy Hassan remarked, "Hosting this gathering in Tokyo and receiving such an enthusiastic response is truly touching. Witnessing genuine dialogue and connections between Hong Kong and Japanese professionals perfectly embodies the mission of creating this platform."
The success of this inaugural exchange has laid a valuable foundation for future cross-border collaboration and strengthened ties between the professional communities of Hong Kong and Tokyo.
