Key words: Digital economy; Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Bay Area; safety of minors online; protection of personal information; digital culture industry; big data, cloud computing; and urban environmental protection

The adoption of preferential tax rebate policies in the area should be encouraged to promote growth, and entry threshold between the mainland and Hong Kong should be loosened to retain talent.
