The "Art Voyager · Wishes Upon Stars" project is bringing together 70 passionate students from Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU). They will become "Ambassadors of Love," stepping into the House to listen to the children's stories. Using their skills in art technology, they will translate these pure and innocent dreams into a soul-stirring drone light symphony. This is not just a transfer of skills; it is a journey of "building a bridge of trust."

Charity + Art-Tech: Pioneering a New Model for Philanthropic Collaboration Following the launch of Hong Kong's first "Low-Altitude Economy and Drone Show" training course with Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) in 2024, X Social Group is upgrading the collaboration in 2025 with the "Art Voyager . Wishes Upon Stars" (藝航天下・童夢星願) charitable drone show. The core concept is "Letting Dreams Soar Over Victoria Harbour," transforming drawings by children from Ronald McDonald House

Hong Kong's Victoria Harbour has always been a stage for dazzling light displays. In recent years, alongside traditional fireworks, drone shows have rapidly captured the city's attention with their high-tech, versatile, and dynamic nature. This art form, a fusion of technology and creativity, not only offers a new visual spectacle for residents and tourists but has also become a unique medium for major brands and grand events to showcase their creativity to the world.

This monumental achievement was made possible through a powerful collaboration between industry leaders and government bodies. We extend our sincere gratitude to our partners who are making this vision a reality: Government Departments: Civil Aviation Department (CAD), Hong Kong Observatory, Hong Kong Productivity Council (HKPC). Index Committee Members: The Greater Bay Area Low-Altitude Economy Alliance, X Social Group, China Unicom, HKT, The Hong Kong Institute of I

As Thousands of drones lit up the night sky over Victoria Harbour, arranging themselves into symbols exclusive to SEVENTEEN and CARAT and drawing gasps from the crowd, a quiet “battle of guardianship” had already been waged behind the scenes. Beneath the brilliance stands an invisible commander—the “Drone Take-off Reliability Index”. It is the sole criterion that guarantees every performance can lift off steadily and unfold flawlessly.

SEVENTEEN and CARAT ! The first of four drone shows (scheduled for September 26, 27, and 29) has successfully commenced. Meticulously planned by the Drone organizer, X Social Group, the event successfully built anticipation for the upcoming concert at the Kai Tak Sports Park. While the audience marveled at the stunning aerial displays, the command center was silently overseeing everything behind the scenes. X Social Group team relied on their "Drone Takeoff Reliability Index

Themed around “LuBan Festival,” the show fused technology with art: a choreographed fleet of drones re-created Hong Kong’s most iconic landmarks across the night sky—the majestic Tsing Ma Bridge, the soaring Bank of China Tower, the contemporary flair of Kai Tak Sports Park - each coming alive above the city. Accompanied by classic Cantopop and live narration, the performance was both a feast for the senses and a heartfelt tribute to Hong Kong’s spirit of building and creatio

Course Highlights Day 1: Students learn about the concept of the low-altitude economy and the applications of drones in logistics, agriculture, and monitoring. They also practice drone aerial photography and assembly, honing their hands-on skills. Day 2 The day features a flying obstacle competition to challenge the limits of control. Students design an indoor drone performance script, integrating art and technology, and perform it on-site. Day 3: Through adventure training,

The program covered modules such as an overview of Hong Kong's low-altitude economy, drone show scriptwriting and directing, flight drills, and indoor positioning signal testing. It also introduced an interactive robot dog segment. Under the guidance of X Social Group's professional instructor team, students completed a comprehensive learning experience that spanned theory, practice, creativity, and performance. They not only successfully conducted multiple drone formation sh

the “Drone Take-off Reliability Index” championed by Mr. Samuel lam, CEO of X Social Group, deserves special attention. By integrating meteorological, topographical and technical parameters into a rigorous risk-assessment model, the index sets precise safety benchmarks and provides insurers with actuarially sound data. Beyond its local impact, the index positions Hong Kong as an international reference for low-altitude regulation and could catalyse the global upgrading of gov

The Drone Take-off Reliability Index (DTORI) is more than a technology product—it is Hong Kong’s strategic fulcrum for leading the “canopy revolution” in the low-altitude economy. By forging a globally recognised safety-assessment standard, DTORI will unblock the “Ren-Du meridians” of scaled low-altitude applications, unlock a trillion-dollar market, and propel Hong Kong from a regional hub to Global Standard Maker in the low-altitude economy. Lam invites all partners to co

Eight hundred drones will light up the night sky over Victoria Harbour, weaving astonishing images with their agile formations and dazzling lights. The show, lasting about 15 minutes, will be led by the amiable "Lo Pan disciples," symbolizing the wisdom and vitality of the new generation. The drones will successively form iconic Hong Kong buildings and means of transportation, including the Kai Tak Sports Park, Tsing Ma Bridge, trams, and ferries, showcasing the city's constr
