Jointly organised by The Hong Kong Printers Association and Hong Kong Publishing Federation, with sponsorship from the Cultural and Creative Industries Development Agency (CCIDA), the 'Soaring Creativity –Hong Kong Pavilion' project aims to showcase the creativity and achievements of Hong Kong's publishing and printing industries to the world. To support the expansion of Hong Kong’s children’s and parent-children’s books into overseas markets, the 'Soaring Creativity – O2O Hong Kong Pavilion 2026' (the 'Soaring Creativity' project) will participate in the Bologna Children’s Book Fair on 13 April to 16 April 2026, with the theme 'Hong Kong: Our Narrative' and the sub-theme 'STEAM: Words Spark Worlds'. The participation in the 2026 Bologna Children’s Book Fair will once again feature both online and offline 'Hong Kong Pavilion', with designated exhibition areas including the 'Industrial Zone', 'Corporate Zone', 'Recognition & Achievement Zone', 'Creative Corner' and 'Publishing 3.0+ Zone' to showcase Hong Kong's outstanding publications, print works, and multimedia applications. In addition, the emerging Hong Kong picture book illustrators admitted to the 3rd Go! Illustrators – Hong Kong Picture Book Illustrators at International Book Fairs Promotion Scheme will display their works and conduct workshops in the ‘Hong Kong Pavilion’. The enhanced 'Hong Kong Pavilion' will enable Hong Kong publishers, printers and picture book illustrators to connect with their counterparts and readers around the globe, beyond geographical, time and sectoral boundaries. It will further help Hong Kong’s publishing and printing industry develop overseas markets and seize business opportunities.
