X Social Group is committed to the digital transformation and dynamic presentation of local cultural assets through cutting-edge drone formation technology. We have successfully translated the innocent artistic creations of children from the "ARTOPIA" initiative, as well as Hong Kong’s profound Intangible Cultural Heritage, into high-dimensional digital light languages.

Every child carries a unique canvas within their heart, yet they often lack the stage to show it to the world. X Social Group, in collaboration with Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU), has launched the ARTOPIA ESG Project. We believe that technology should not be mere cold data, but a paintbrush that carries warmth. In this initiative, cutting-edge drone technology transcends its role as machinery, transforming into "digital constellations.

Samuel Lam, CEO of X Social Group, acting in his dual role as Vice Chairman of the Organizing Committee, officially signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Professor Terence Lau, Chief Innovation Officer of HKBU. The signing was witnessed by Dr. Kennedy Wong, Chairman of the Council and the Court of HKBU, and Professor Alex Wai, President and Vice-Chancellor of HKBU.

ARTOPIA, however, represents an entirely new format: "ArtTech × Low-Altitude Economy × Social Responsibility." We have transformed the low-altitude economy into a vehicle for social care, ensuring that technology is no longer just cold data, but a cultural symbol with emotional resonance.

Industrial Integration & Innovation: HKBU and X Social Group will launch a deep collaboration focused on the "HKSAR Low-Altitude Economy Regulatory Sandbox Project." This partnership will focus on developing the "Drone Take-off Reliability Index" (DTORI) and promoting the ARTOPIA corporate social responsibility project to empower society through technology.

X Social Group launched the IP Artopia charity project, uniting Hong Kong Baptist University and charitable organizations. This is not just a cross-sector collaboration; it is an experiment in "Technological Empowerment."

Nominated by HKPC, CCIDA, and the HKDEA to showcase HK's Art Tech strength through "Drone Shows," X Social Group traveled to Europe with a mission: to "Standardize" and "Internationalize" the HK experience. At the forum, the team demonstrated how to utilize precise drone formation technology to transform the sky into an "Urban Aerial Canvas." 

X Social Group is honored to have brought our expertise in the #LowAltitudeEconomy to the core of the 2025 MAMA Awards, serving as the official professional aerial livestreaming partner. Amidst the dazzling lights of the Kai Tak Sports Park, we were not merely recorders of history, but elevators of the visual experience.

Breathing Soul into "Art Voyager . Wishes Upon Stars" If tonight's National Games performance showcased the "Beauty of Technology" on a grand scale, then next year's "Art Voyager . Wishes Upon Stars" Charity Show will be an "Artistic Miracle" that strikes straight at the heart.

Where does this "warmth" come from? It comes from genuine humanistic care and deep emotional resonance. This is the core mission of the "Art Voyager . Wishes Upon Stars" project, led by Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) and X SOCIAL GROUP, with Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) as the beneficiary.

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

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.

At the launch ceremony, government representatives, DTORI committee members, and legislator Elizabeth Quat emphasized the project's significance for Hong Kong's smart city development. Experts including Justin Yeung, Samuel Lam, Dr. Edwin Hui, Elizabeth Quat, and committee secretary Michele Ho shared in-depth insights on technological breakthroughs and implementation pathways. A strategic cooperation signing ceremony was also held, with the Greater Bay Area Low-Altitude Econo

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

Since its establishment at Cyberport in 2023, X Social Group has successfully organized nearly 100 drone shows in Hong Kong, amassing extensive experience. The company is continuously refining its drone show technology. The "Drone Takeoff Reliability Index" project

Central to Hong Kong’s ambitions is the Drone Takeoff Reliability Index, a sandbox initiative led by X Social Group, Damoda, Universities, Cross-Government Departments and Other LAE Stakeholders. By analyzing flight data from thousands of drones used in large-scale light shows, the project aims to achieve a 99.999% safety reliability standard. Partnering with the Hong Kong Observatory, this effort merges real-time weather insights with advanced algorithms to define global saf

Mr. Samuel Lam, Convener of the Drone Take-Off Reliability Index Committee and CEO of X Social Group, said: “DTORI is more than a technological product; it is the strategic fulcrum for Hong Kong to lead the ‘aerial revolution’ of the low-altitude economy. By establishing a globally recognised safety standard, DTORI will unlock the full potential of large-scale low-altitude applications, catalysing a trillion-dollar market and propelling Hong Kong from a regional hub to a glob

By gazetting the increase of Class C drones' weight limit to 150 kg, and clarifying insurance requirements, flight operation permits and other standards, Hong Kong has officially set off on the path of building a standardized system for the low-altitude economy. This has laid a solid foundation for the innovative development of the entire industry.
