"To attract Hong Kong and Macao youth to pursue innovation and start businesses in Zhongshan, Zhongshan has introduced a favorable housing policy, under which a subsidy covering 50% of the rent for an office up to 90 square meters will be offered for up to two years. Meanwhile, the first 261 municipal talent apartments have been completed in late September this year and are available for applications."

On November 6, Zhongshan International Talent Hub signed a talent cooperation framework agreement with Hong Kong's Y.Elites Association. During the signing ceremony, an official of Zhongshan provided a detailed explanation of Zhongshan's conditions for talent development.

The Y.Elites Association also unveiled its talent workstation and social practice center in Zhongshan, and certificates of Global Talent Recruitment Advisor were issued to some of its members.

The Y.Elites Association, founded in 2007, is comprised of young entrepreneurs, professionals as well as leaders and key members of youth associations in Hong Kong, and it now has over 1,300 members.

The Y.Elites Talent Workstation in Zhongshan will actively promote the cooperation between Hong Kong and Zhongshan in talent training, employment and entrepreneurship, and the Y.Elites Social Practice Center in Zhongshan will organize research and exchange activities for Hong Kong youth in the Greater Bay Area every year.

According to the cooperation agreement, Zhongshan International Talent Hub and the Y.Elites Association will conduct all-round cooperation in talent exchange, training, introduction and selection. Zhongshan will provide housing security and organize training classes for youth from Hong Kong.
