根據最新調查，香港初創企業數目已經突破四千間，創歷史新高。特別係金融科技同人工智能領域，增長最為顯著。政府推出嘅「數碼港培育計劃」同「科學園加速器」成功吸引咗大量本地同海外創業者。

According to the latest survey, the number of Hong Kong start-ups has exceeded 4,000, a historic high. Growth is most notable in fintech and AI. Government programmes like Cyberport Incubation and Science Park Accelerator have successfully attracted many local and overseas entrepreneurs.
不過，業界人士指出，高昂嘅租金同人才流失仍然係香港初創面對嘅主要挑戰。有創業者表示：「香港嘅優勢係國際化同埋法治健全，但係生活成本太高，令到好多年輕人才考慮去新加坡或者深圳發展。」

However, industry insiders point out that high rents and talent drain remain the main challenges. Some entrepreneurs say: Hong Kong's advantages are its international outlook and strong rule of law, but the high cost of living pushes many young talents to consider Singapore or Shenzhen.
分析員認為，政府需要進一步降低創業門檻，同時加強大灣區嘅合作機制，先至可以鞏固香港作為亞洲創科中心嘅地位。

Analysts believe the government needs to further lower barriers to entrepreneurship and strengthen Greater Bay Area cooperation to consolidate Hong Kong's position as Asia's innovation hub.
