SFC Market Talk｜GBA is vital to China's cultural industry

Editor's note: Niranjan (倪任甄), a special commentator for SFC, is an influencer from India who has been living in China for a long time. He is active at various exhibitions in China, where he shares his insights and has a keen interest in Chinese culture. The 20th China (Shenzhen) International Cultural Industries Fair (ICIF) has also caught his attention.

Niranjan: The Greater Bay Area plays a crucial role in China's cultural industry, serving as a major center for innovation, creativity, and international collaboration. This region, which includes cities like Hong Kong, Macau, Shenzhen, and Guangzhou, is known for its vibrant cultural scene and significant contributions to media, arts, and entertainment. The area hosts numerous cultural festivals, film productions, and art exhibitions, attracting talent and investment from around the world. Guangdong's historical openness to global influences has fostered a unique cultural fusion, enhancing its appeal and impact.

The Greater Bay Area's strategic initiatives aim to further integrate cultural industries across the region, promoting cross-border collaborations and technological advancements. These efforts are supported by strong government policies and investments in cultural infrastructure. As a result, the Greater Bay Area is not only pivotal in shaping China's cultural identity but also in projecting its cultural soft power globally, driving economic growth and cultural exchange.
