Achievements

Our team has taken the lead in sparking conversations about entrepreneurship across the campus. Through a dedicated outreach campaign, we've managed to engage a diverse group of over 50 students, as well as faculty and staff, encouraging them to share and explore their startup ideas and consider the vast possibilities for innovation that our university holds, resulting in 40 students responding to our survey.

By harnessing the insights we gathered, we've been successful in pairing up students whose entrepreneurial goals and interests align, effectively setting the stage for a fertile startup ecosystem right here at HKBU. This has been a crucial step in not only bringing together like-minded individuals but also in crafting a foundation for these budding entrepreneurs to build upon, pushing their innovative ideas forward. The enthusiasm and cooperative spirit this initiative has fostered are palpable. We anticipate the future achievements of these growing startups, confident in the knowledge that our efforts have contributed to a more dynamic and collaborative university environment.
