The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) is composed of 11 core cities, including Hong Kong, Macao and the 9 municipalities (such as Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Foshan, Huizhou, Dongguan, Zhongshan, Jiangmen and Zhaoqing in Guangdong Province) in Guangdong Province. The GBA is one of China’s most dynamic economic and open urban clusters, serving as an important space carrier for China to build a world-class city cluster and participate in global competition. It boasts world-leading innovation strength with the "Shenzhen-Hong Kong-Guangzhou" innovation cluster ranking first globally, a convenient "one-hour living circle" transportation network centered on Guangzhou (with Baiyun International Airport offering global direct flights), a unique blend of tradition and modernity (especially Guangzhou, the 2,200-year-old "Flower City" with diverse culture and cuisine), and a commitment to international cooperation with preferential policies and numerous academic events, providing valuable opportunities for the academic exchanges and global cooperation.
