The 5G Innovation Centre was founded by China
Mobile Communications Corporation in February 2016. Hong Kong Open Lab has
proactively initiated collaborations with telecom and vertical industry
partners to echo the Hong Kong Government's initiative in promoting research
and innovation in technological development to build a 5G cross-industry social
integration ecosystem since its opening in March 2018.� After the
relocation to Hong Kong Science Park,�Hong Kong Open Lab will further
carry out the "5G+ Project" to complement the existing 4G network with 5G
infrastructure; to promote application of 5G technologies in various scopes;
and to develop more comprehensive 5G ecosystems in developing a diversified
economy and improving the quality of life.

Leveraging its geographical
advantages, the new Hong Kong Open Lab is ideally situated much closer to talents in technology to build a cross-industry
ecosystem that thrives on shared success. Also, with a larger space in its new
location, Hong Kong Open Lab will be able to provide a 5G network environment
and a larger co-working space for local business partners to conduct trials of
innovative 5G network applications, supporting the industry on research and
development, as well as contributing to the establishment of Hong Kong into a
leading smart city.

Mr. Sean Lee, Director & Chief
Executive Officer of China Mobile Hong Kong Limited, said, "We are very excited
for the expansion and relocation of the China Mobile 5G Innovation Centre and Hong Kong
Open Lab to the Hong Kong Science Park, and for the opportunity to join the
local innovation and technology ecosystem in there to further develop 5G mobile
service applications and carry out the "5G+ Project." We will continue to complement the existing 4G
network with�5G infrastructure, to promote
5G technologies along with new communication technologies -- for example, Artificial
Intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), Cloud, Big Data and Edge Computing
-- to develop comprehensive 5G ecosystems in accomplishing the digitalisation of
lives for Hong Kong citizens and to enter the new era of 5G together. We
strongly believe the concept of "4G changes lives, 5G changes society." The 5G network will not only provide consumers with
data service, but will also be a solid foundation for smart city applications."

Mr. Albert Wong, Chief Executive Officer of Hong Kong
Science and Technology Parks Corporation, said, "We warmly welcome the
relocation of China Mobile 5G Innovation Centre Hong Kong Open Lab to Hong Kong
Science Park. Hong Kong Science Park, a living laboratory with over 700
technology companies and startups, provided an ideal environment for trying out
various R&D innovations. The relocation by China Mobile will bring more
5G-related knowledge and technical support to park companies, facilitate the
innovation and technology ecosystem to jointly accelerate the trial, co-creation
and application of 5G technologies in different technology areas and achieve
the Smart City vision for Hong Kong."
