The students first visited the Da Hengqin Ceramics Art Museum, an innovative and multifunctional aesthetic experience space utilizing ceramics as a medium. The museum combines art exhibitions, cultural salons, and customized gift services to promote Chinese ceramic culture through regional ceramic cultural and creative products to the Greater Bay Area and the world. A museum representative provided a detailed introduction to the museum's basic features and its collection of exquisite bone china products, each piece artfully crafted and highly admired by the students.

Deputy Director Wang Kun delivered an insightful presentation on the investment policies of the Hengqin Guangdong-Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone. He highlighted the promotion of moderately diversified new industries to boost Macao's economy and discussed the development of the modern financial industry in the cooperation zone, along with the key aspects of cross-border financial management between Hengqin and Macao. The session aimed to help students understand the supportive policies benefiting Macao in entrepreneurship, employment, and recruiting postdoctoral talents, enabling them to better grasp the current status and future development potential and opportunities of the Hengqin Guangdong-Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone.

Finally, the students visited the Guangdong-Macao Integrated Circuit Design Industrial Park. This park is the first dedicated integrated circuit zone established by the Executive Committee of the Hengqin Guangdong-Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone. It implements the strategic model of "Macao Platform + International Resources + Hengqin Space + Shared Outcomes." Over 50 IC companies, including Empyrean North, Biren Technology, Mychip Technology, Qixin Semiconductor, Zhuhai Advanced Integrated Circuit Research Institute, and the Hengqin Semiconductor Industry Association, have already set up operations in thePark. The staff introduced the students to the foundational industry elements, development advantages, and strategic positioning of Hengqin's semiconductor industry, and provided a detailed overview of the Park, including tours of the companies operating there.

The faculty and students of the Faculty of Finance at the City University of Macau extend their heartfelt gratitude to Deputy Director Wang Kun of Zhuhai Da Hengqin Development Co., Ltd., for his meticulous arrangements and warm hospitality. Through this visit to Hengqin, the students gained insights into the future development prospects of the Hengqin Guangdong-Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone. This event promoted industry-education integration and achieved mutually beneficial development between the university and enterprises. It not only deepened students' understanding and engagement with Hengqin, its enterprises, and research institutes but also provided them with valuable practical experience. It is believed that, in the future, by continuing to deepen industry-academia-research activities, the Faculty of Finance will make even greater contributions to the development of cross-border finance in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
