It gives me great pleasure to congratulate the Hong Kong Computer Society for its accomplishments in organizing this flagship event of the ICT industry in the region – the Hong Kong International Computer Conference (HKICC 2013) which is now coming to its 36th year. This year’s theme is about “Technology Disruptions Transform Business” which will highlight the importance of ICT innovations and development on business transformation. I am sure this conference will continue to serve as a key platform for bringing together ICT experts and industry leaders to explore the new perspectives and address the key challenges ahead.

On behalf of the Hong Kong Retail Technology Industry Association, I wish the HKICC 2013 another year of great success.

On behalf of Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation (HKSTPC), I would like to offer my warm congratulations to the 36th Hong Kong International Computer Conference (HKICC).

I am sure no one would disagree that Information Technology is the backbone of any developed economy. The long-standing tradition of Hong Kong International Computer Conference is to gather key players and experts from government, academia and industry to share best practices and explore best ways to enhance the city’s competitiveness via the deployment of IT.

For all of us at HKSTPC, we are fully aware that the sustainable development of IT in Hong Kong is not only crucial to the wellbeing of the local technology sector, but also important to the advancement of a knowledge-based economy, which is why it has always been one of our five focused clusters.

I look forward to closer collaboration with Hong Kong Computer Society in the future and will offer our full support to making HKICC another year of success.

The Hong Kong Society of Medical Informatics continues to join hands with the Hong Kong Computer Society in promoting the adoption of ICT in healthcare. We have a strong partnership since 1989 and we are indeed very satisfying in witnessing the increasing use of computerization and informatics adoption in healthcare institutions in both the public and private sectors. The promotion of the concept of “one citizen one electronic health record” by the government really helps to push the penetration of IT into all healthcare providers. I am sure in the coming five years, we can achieve this concept with the launch of the Territory wide electronic health records sharing platform by the government next year.

I wish the HKICC 2013 another great success.

I warmly congratulate Hong Kong Computer Society for her everlasting success in organizing the Hong Kong International Computer Conference in the past 35 years. Under the prolonged effort of HKCS and her team, we are proud to witness the Conference growing to be a reputable and widely recognized one for the ICT Industry.

We are delighted to be one of the supporting organizations of the Conference this year. On behalf of IET Hong Kong, I would like to extend my best wishes to the great success of the Conference.

Technologies are now not just a driving force that fuels the world's economy and spearheads human progress, but are also an agent that fundamentally transforms the various aspects that businesses (be they commercial, social or personal) are operated and organised. Few industries or societies will remain unchanged by technology innovation, nor will human beings live and interact in the same way amidst technology disruptions, as evidenced in the past decades and projected by experts to the future.

Without doubt, information and communication technologies (ICT) are dominant and prominent among the various technologies that effect transformations to people, businesses and the society. With the myriad opportunities that are brought about, challenges are aplenty, technological or otherwise, when people, businesses and the society strive to turn the opportunities into real benefits in daily lives for the mass.

In this regard, professional societies have a vital and meaningful role to play in bringing together the ICT community, developers and other stakeholders, to address these challenges. Hong Kong Computer Society (HKCS) has set an exemplar by actively and continuously contributed to ICT professional development as well as provided an excellent platform such as the Hong Kong International Computer Conference (HKICC) to engage the various parties of the society in fruitful dialogues that address practical challenges faced by all at times of technology disruptions.

On behalf of IEEE Hong Kong Section Computer Chapter, I would like to highly commend HKCS for its organization of such an important event as HKICC for the society. I am sure HKICC will once again achieve great success and endow all participants with a rewarding and enjoyable experience at the conference!

On behalf of Hong Kong Internet Registration Corporation Limited (HKIRC), I would like to extend my warmest congratulations to the Hong Kong Computer Society for its great success in organizing such a meaningful event to the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) industry.
