A delegation from the Macao Special Administrative Region (China) spent two days in Monaco on 8th and 9th March, meeting with officials and business leaders to explore new opportunities for collaboration.

Led by Tai Kin Ip, Macao’s Secretary for Economy and Finance, the delegation included senior government figures such as the heads of economic development, tourism, and academic research. They were joined by business leaders from Macao’s high-tech, artificial intelligence, and telecommunications sectors. Also in attendance was Buddy Lam, Director of General Affairs for the Galaxy Entertainment Group, a key partner of Monaco’s Société des Bains de Mer in the Asia-Pacific region since 2017.

A dinner hosted by Monaco’s Ambassador to China, Marie-Pascale Boisson, provided a relaxed setting for discussions between the delegation and representatives from Monaco’s finance, economy, tourism, and business sectors, including the Monaco Economic Board. Local entrepreneurs in tech and innovation also had the chance to connect with their Macao counterparts.

At the end of the visit, Tai Kin Ip described the meetings as a promising first step towards strengthening the relationship between Monaco and Macao, with both sides keen to build on their existing ties.
