“Revitalization of Industrial Buildings”

To accommodate “six industries where Hong Kong has enjoyed clear advantages” (namely, educational services, medical services, testing and certification, environmental industry, innovation and technology, and cultural and creative industries) a package of measures to facilitate change of use, redevelopment and wholesale conversion of industrial buildings was announced by the Chief Executive in his 2009-10 Policy Address, which includes a three-year “Revitalising Industrial Buildings” scheme.
