The JPC Dragon Boat Charity Race is an annual event co-organized by the Hong Kong Junior Police Call and Youth Liaison Section, the Police Public Relations Branch, and the Police Dragon Boat Club. This year’s event brought together 60 teams from various police units, disciplinary forces, associations, and tech companies, who gathered at the Ma Liu Shui Marine Police Base for the competition.

One of the race programs was the Digital Policing Cup, themed on Technological Innovation, Endeavor for Progress. Over 200 participants from 7 tech companies, including Hytera, competed with teams from the Police Information Systems Department and the Cybersecurity and Technology Investigations Section. The event aimed to promote close cooperation between technology companies and the police force, enhancing their synergy in developing digital policing.
