Policy Address by Hong Kong SAR’s Chief Executive John Lee: Deepening Reforms and Leveraging Strengths for a Brighter Future


HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 17 September 2025 – Hong Kong’s Chief Executive, John Lee, today (September 17) announced his fourth Policy Address, unveiling a range of initiatives to strengthen both established and emerging industries, attract overseas investment and talent, support Mainland China enterprises to “go global” and improve people’s livelihood.

Hong Kong SAR's Chief Executive John Lee's fourth Policy Address is themed
Hong Kong SAR’s Chief Executive John Lee’s fourth Policy Address is themed “Deepening Reforms for Our People Leveraging Our Strengths for a Brighter Future”.

“The well-being of our people is intimately linked to the health of our economy, making economic growth the key driver of livelihood improvement,” Mr Lee said.

Entitled “Deepening Reforms for Our People Leveraging Our Strengths for a Brighter Future”, the Policy Address initiatives are well aligned with the city’s competitive advantages under the “One Country, Two Systems” principle, Mr Lee said.

“With an ever‑expanding influence internationally, Hong Kong is rated the world’s freest economy, as well as an advanced and business‑friendly city. These fully demonstrate the notable institutional strengths and great vitality of ‘One Country, Two Systems’,” he added.

The Chief Executive said the development of the Northern Metropolis, an area that borders the Mainland and accounts for about one-third of Hong Kong’s total area and population, was a “new engine for Hong Kong’s economic development and holds immense potential.”

To accelerate its development, a new Committee on Development of the Northern Metropolis will be set up, chaired by the Chief Executive, with a view to raising the level of decision-making. Administrative workflows will be streamlined, while unnecessary barriers and restrictions will be removed. Additionally, dedicated legislation will be introduced to empower the Government to devise simplified statutory procedures for accelerating the development of the Northern Metropolis.

On industry development, Mr Lee said that artificial intelligence (AI) was “a key driving force”.

“With our advantages in scientific research, capital, data and talent, together with abundant use cases, Hong Kong is poised to become a global hub for AI development,” Mr Lee said.

The Government has launched the HK$3 billion (about US$386 million) Frontier Technology Research Support Scheme to help funded universities attract international top‑notch scientific researchers in AI and other fields to Hong Kong to spearhead basic research in frontier technologies, Mr Lee added.

Hong Kong has an advantage in internationalisation and possesses strong scientific research capabilities, with various universities participating in national aerospace projects. This, coupled with financing advantages, allows Hong Kong to promote the development of aerospace science and technology, supporting the space economy.

To attract more investment from the Mainland and overseas, Mr Lee announced that the Government would formulate preferential policy packages, that would include incentives such as land grants, land premiums, financial subsidies, and tax incentives, to attract high value‑added industries and high‑potential enterprises to set up in Hong Kong.

New industrialisation-related industries, such as aircraft recycling and new energy, will also be attracted and developed. The Government will foster the development of the life and health technology industry and set up the Hong Kong Centre for Medical Products Regulation, helping pharmaceutical companies bring innovative drugs to the market.

To consolidate Hong Kong’s status as an international hub and integrate into overall national development, the Policy Address proposed a range of initiatives to support development of core industries.

Regarding financial services, the Government will expedite the building of a premier international gold trading market by supporting more institutions to establish gold storage facilities in Hong Kong, with a target gold storing capacity of over 2 000 tonnes in three years, propelling Hong Kong into a regional gold reserve hub. The Government will also encourage gold traders to set up or expand refineries in Hong Kong, establish a central clearing system for gold in Hong Kong, and offer a greater variety of gold investment vehicles.

Hong Kong is expected to become the world’s largest cross-boundary wealth management centre in the next few years. The Government will enhance the New Capital Investment Entrant Scheme to attract more investors by lowering the transaction price threshold for residential properties from HK$50 million (about US$6.43 million) to HK$30 million (about US$3.86 million).

To propel Hong Kong towards becoming an international hub for post-secondary education and high-calibre talents, the Government will construct the Northern Metropolis University Town and establish the Task Force on Study in Hong Kong to promote the “Study in Hong Kong” brand.

Hong Kong is among the world’s top three art trading centres. The Government will step up efforts to build Hong Kong into a global premium arts trading hub by developing an arts ecosystem at the Airport City, deepening collaboration with Art Basel, and engaging the industry to carry out studies on taxation, financing, talent, and related areas of art trading.

2025 Policy Address

Mr Lee concluded, “Hong Kong faces challenges and is also presented with continuing opportunities amid the changing world. Our country, the world’s second-largest economy, is our staunchest supporter and the source of our biggest opportunities. Combined with Hong Kong’s international prospects, our opportunities far outweigh the challenges. By working together, innovating, and embracing reform, we will turn our beloved Hong Kong into an even better home for everyone. The Pearl of the Orient will keep shining brighter than ever before.”

Agentic ITSM platform Atomicwork announces strategic investment from Okta Ventures

The partnership accelerates secure, seamless, and context-rich IT support for the AI era

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Atomicwork, the agentic service management platform built for the AI era, today announced a strategic investment from Okta Ventures. This investment strengthens Atomicwork’s mission to reinvent enterprise IT. By combining Agentic AI with modern identity security, IT teams can unlock faster, safer employee productivity without compromising on experience. The result: Quick resolutions, fewer tickets in the flow of work, and secure-by-design workflows.

Okta Ventures invests in Atomicwork
Okta Ventures invests in Atomicwork

Through this partnership, Atomicwork and Okta will build integrations that embed identity, access intelligence, and IGA into everyday service delivery.

For example, when an employee can’t access Workday, they simply message Atom (Atomicwork’s Universal AI Agent) in Teams, Slack, or the browser: “I can’t get into Workday.”

Atom validates their identity via Okta—role, group membership, and device data—to determine the right access policy and intelligently assigns access instantly. If it detects security concerns, like an unusual login location, Atom escalates to IT with the full identity context attached.

The result is no ticket, no wait time, and complete confidence that the entire process was secure, compliant, and fully auditable without requiring a manual workflow.

Together, Atomicwork and Okta will enable IT teams to deliver personalized, proactive support across every business app, channel, and device, making enterprise IT both seamless and secure.

Atomicwork’s AI-native Universal Agent already reduces ticket volumes by up to 60% for IT and service teams with omnichannel and multimodal Agentic AI, while improving end-user satisfaction by more than 25%. By embedding identity into these agentic workflows, Atomicwork ensures that every interaction is not just faster, but also trusted and compliant, meeting the needs of today’s global, distributed enterprises.

“Legacy ITSM tools were built to manage tickets. We’re building Atomicwork to eliminate them,” said Vijay Rayapati, Co-founder and CEO of Atomicwork. “Okta Ventures shares our belief that identity is the foundation of trust in the enterprise. With their backing, we’ll accelerate our vision of giving modern IT teams the power of AI-native service management and enterprise identity controls in one unified platform, so employees can get instant, secure help wherever they work.”

“Identity is at the core of secure, modern enterprise infrastructure,” said Austin Arensberg, Senior Director, Okta Ventures. “Atomicwork is redefining how IT service management works in an AI-first world, and we’re excited to support their vision of bringing identity-driven automation and agentic AI to enterprises everywhere.”

Atomicwork has raised over $40M across its seed and Series A rounds so far.

About Atomicwork
Atomicwork is a modern service management platform, built for the AI era. With agentic AI and identity at the core, it automates routine IT tasks, unifies internal workflows, and delivers instant, contextual ITSM and ESM across Slack, Teams, and the browser—empowering IT teams to focus on strategic initiatives that drive business growth.

CisionOne Expands AI-Powered Platform with Enhanced Instant Insights and Social Intelligence

  • Advanced Filtering and Customization – Instantly apply powerful filters and tailor dashboards with flexible options to zero in on the coverage that matters most.
  • Granular Analysis – Drill into charts and metrics to uncover the story behind the numbers.
  • Insights Hub – Build, organize, and share media coverage in one central place, making collaboration easier than ever.
  • Shareable Interactive Dashboards – Seamless collaboration with interactive dashboards for stakeholders, even those without CisionOne access.
  • Traditional, Social, and Distribution in One View – Access a unified dashboard that combines traditional coverage, social conversations, and media release performance for a complete, real-time picture.
  • Enhanced Social Capabilities – New integrations with Instagram and LinkedIn (with a TikTok API coming soon), plus deeper workflows for listening, publishing and engagement.

“PR teams have unique challenges that marketing-first tools don’t solve — from managing crises to measuring the true value of earned media,” said Jim Daxner, Chief Product Officer at Cision. “With these AI-powered innovations, we’ve built the only communications platform that brings together traditional media, social intelligence, and media release distribution— enabling our customers to move faster, prove impact, and protect their reputations in real time.”

CisionOne now stands apart as the only end-to-end communications platform where social intelligence, traditional media insights, and journalist outreach & distribution live together — streamlining workflows and enabling smarter, more impactful strategies.

Dornier MedTech America launches Hoover™ and AXIS® II SLIM, raising the bar in kidney stone treatment

KENNESAW, Ga., Sept. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Dornier MedTech America (DMTA) has announced the full U.S. commercial launch of its Dornier Hoover Flexible and Navigable Suction Ureteral Access Sheath (FANS) and Dornier Axis II Slim single-use ureteroscope with a 5.6Fr. distal tip.


 

Dornier Hoover Optivision
Dornier Hoover Optivision

Already FDA-cleared and proven in limited release, both single use devices are now available nationwide.

When paired with Dornier’s Thulio® pulsed Thulium: YAG laser with RealPulse® technology, the Dornier Hoover and Dornier Axis II Slim is designed to be the ultimate trio to provide a fully integrated set-up for dusting, fragment retrieval,  irrigation, and suction control in flexible ureteroscopy (fURS), allowing urologists to see, break, and remove kidney stones in one seamless procedure.

How it works together

The Dornier Hoover FANS Ureteral Access Sheath provides a stable working environment that enables continuous irrigation, suction, and instrument exchange through this sheath, the Axis II Slim ureteroscope is advanced to the kidney, where it delivers clear visualization of the stone, facilitating precise laser lithotripsy.

During laser stone disintegration (fragmenting or dusting) the Hoover allows for immediate removal of dust and fragments, maintaining clear visibility, and ensuring efficient evacuation of stone material.

Together, the three devices streamline the procedure by combining effective stone treatment with rapid, controlled clearance.

Best-in-Class Performance, Proven in In-Vitro Testing

Two pivotal mechanical factors determine the optimal use of Dornier Hoover FANS Ureteral Access Sheaths in flexible ureteroscopy (fURS) procedures; they are suction performance and deflection ability.

Recent peer-reviewed in-vitro studies published in the World Journal of Urology[1][2] found that the Dornier Hoover (Manufacturer: Innovex Medical Co. Ltd.) outperformed other tested devices of the same size in suction performance and delivered superior deflection for improved navigation.

These two parameters are critical for achieving high intraoperative efficiency in stone fragment clearance and for ensuring reliable access to challenging regions of the pelvicalyceal system, particularly the lower pole calyces of the kidneys.

Key competitive advantages of the Dornier Hoover and Dornier Axis II Slim include:

  • Best-in-class suction performance of the sheath for faster fragment removal compared to competing devices of the same size.[1]
  • Best-in-class deflection for navigating difficult calyces, even with laser fiber or basket in place.[2]
  • 5.6 Fr. tip scope provides the ideal combination of tight ureteral access and maneuverability for reliable lower pole access.

Executive Perspective

“Dornier MedTech America has a deep understanding of urological workflows and urologists’ needs. The Dornier Hoover delivers best-in-class suction performance and Dornier Axis II Slim offers best-in-class deflection—giving urologists a proven competitive edge in the operating theater,” said Brock Faulkner, CEO, Dornier MedTech America.

“With the 5.6 Fr. tip, the Dornier Axis II Slim sets a new benchmark for ureteroscope access, and together with Dornier Thulio, these devices form the ultimate 3-in-1 integrated urology solution for advanced stone procedures.”

Availability

Dornier Hoover and Dornier Axis II Slim are now available in the United States.

IShowSpeed Redefines Live Streaming with 35-Day, 24/7 Tour Powered by TVU Networks

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Sept. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Millions of fans are tuning in as IShowSpeed embarks on an unprecedented challenge: a nonstop, 35-day livestream across the United States. More than a tour, it’s a revolutionary broadcast experiment that bridges the gap between a traditional television production and the unfiltered energy of a YouTuber.

IShowSpeed Redefines Live Streaming with 35-Day, 24/7 Tour Powered by TVU Networks
IShowSpeed Redefines Live Streaming with 35-Day, 24/7 Tour Powered by TVU Networks

IShowSpeed (Darren Jason Watkins Jr.) is one of the most dynamic personalities in online entertainment. Known for his spontaneous humor and viral moments, he’s built a global fan base of millions on YouTube and Twitch. Speed’s streams regularly break records, cementing him as a defining voice of a new generation of digital creators.

For decades, live television meant satellite trucks and massive crews with rigid schedules. Speed is proving those barriers are gone. His cross-country livestream shows two powerful media worlds colliding: the polished reliability of broadcast and the raw unpredictability of digital creators. And at the center of this convergence stands TVU, not just as a transformer of live media, but as the link to making this experiment possible.

“IShowSpeed’s tour is a nonstop sprint, and every day is a test of technology that has to be ready for anything,” said Josh Tucker, Head of Streaming Strategy and Partnerships at TVU Networks. “For years, broadcast was a one-sided exchange, but now TVU is building the tools that turn it into a two-way conversation that includes content creators like Speed.”

The bus he’s traveling in has been transformed into a rolling production hub, wired with cameras and powered by multiple TVU devices. Whether Speed is gaming inside, stepping out into the streets, or crashing an event, the show follows seamlessly, capturing every angle with the polish of TV but the immediacy of Twitch.

UnlimitedIRL has also joined forces with TVU on this ambitious project, providing trusted guidance and technical expertise to ensure an uninterrupted, high-quality stream.

“Streaming from a new city every day without interruptions requires the perfect blend of hardware and software,” said Taylor Webb, Chief of Operations at UnlimitedIRL. “TVU’s ecosystem delivers that – combining the stability of broadcast with the flexibility creators like Speed require – making it possible to pull off a 35-day nonstop livestream with a lean crew and top-tier quality. He wanted the ability to stream nonstop – from the stadiums and colleges of America’s biggest cities to the highways in between – without missing a second. This is something we’ve never seen before, and it’s setting a new bar for what live streaming can be.”

Behind the scenes, TVU RPS One IRL Backpacks keep multiple camera feeds synced and stable, even while the bus goes full speed through remote locations with little connectivity. In the cloud, TVU Producer handles live switching, replays, graphics, and global team collaboration – all from a browser, all live. And with TVU’s transmission algorithm ISX, aggregating Starlink with 4G/5G cellular networks the stream is primed to capture whatever comes next.

“This tour is the dream, but running it non-stop takes serious gear,” said Samuel I (Slipz), Speed’s technical director. “With TVU, we’re locked in—rock-solid tech, backup when we need it, and the freedom to push streaming further. That’s how Speed keeps breaking the mold and delivering the kind of moments fans can’t miss.”

In this new hybrid universe, the roles are clear: IShowSpeed is the hero rewriting the rules of live entertainment, and TVU is his sidekick, powering the story behind the scenes.

About IShowSpeed

IShowSpeed (Darren Watkins Jr.) is a 20-year-old global streamer and entertainer with over 148 million subscribers and followers, and billions of views worldwide. Named Rolling Stone’s Most Influential Creator of 2025, he has blended gaming, music, sports, and real-world adventure into one of the most powerful and culture-shaping digital entertainment platforms of all-time.
