The surveying and construction sectors in Hong Kong are increasingly focusing on digital transformation and technological innovation.

In September 2026, the Smart Surveying Innovation Competition announced 20 finalists selected from approximately 120 teams. The competition, supported by the Housing Bureau and the University of Hong Kong, aims to develop AI-driven solutions for surveying and construction challenges through a series of workshops and an innovation marathon.

Following this, the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors hosted its 2026 Quantity Surveying Conference. The event addressed the integration of digital construction, collaborative contracting, and payment security, exploring how professionals can transition from traditional cost management roles into enablers of value creation using digital tools.
