The partnership seeks to support the transformation of urban logistics and global supply chain management by combining advanced technologies, regulatory expertise, and scalable logistics solutions.
Co-creating the next frontier of logistics
Under the agreement, EY and Lalamove will leverage their respective strengths to develop intelligent, resilient, compliant, and scalable logistics solutions for large enterprise customers.
“For EY, this collaboration is not simply about participating in a new industry. It is about helping shape the next wave of economic transformation, where technology, infrastructure, regulation, and capital come together to create sustainable growth and long-term value,” EY China chair and Greater China regional managing partner Jack Chan said in a statement.
Lalamove chief operating officer Paul Loo said the collaboration will help businesses navigate increasingly complex supply chains.
“By integrating drone-enabled deliveries with our ground networks, we are creating a seamless, multi-dimensional instant logistics ecosystem. We are pioneering these low-altitude economy solutions in Hong Kong and aim to expand across international markets,” Loo said.
Overcoming ecosystem challenges
While Hong Kong’s LAE ecosystem remains in its early stages, EY will serve as an ecosystem integrator to help accelerate commercialization efforts.
The collaboration will focus on three key areas: commercial integration, governance and compliance, and digital infrastructure.
These initiatives aim to bring together industry stakeholders, establish robust risk management frameworks, and support the adoption of data, artificial intelligence, and digital platforms. —Ed: Corrie S. Narisma
