Harnessing Technology for Social Good
With its innovative buzz, Hong Kong attracts young visionaries to unite in tackling pressing global challenges, as they champion sustainable social development through the lens of entrepreneurship.
With support from our partner organisations and long-term supporter, the Federation is once again organising The Global Youth Entrepreneurs Forum this October, a flagship event that brings together young people to seek collective action in addressing these challenges. Over the years, we have engaged more than 6,000 stakeholders, comprising young entrepreneurs, unicorn founders, angel investors, and policymakers, along with members from venture capital firms, chambers of commerce, and academic institutions from 33 different countries and regions.
The theme of this year’s Forum is The New Wave of Artificial Intelligence in Business which will bring together 300 dynamic individuals, who will share the challenges of today’s environment, while also seeking ways to harness their businesses for a common good from innovative thinking to business strategy. Practical cases and best practices will be shared on how to leverage these technologies to create new business values and address societal issues.
The Forum will leverage expertise from Hong Kong, as well as through visits to Macau and Shunde, Foshan. Throughout the five days, young entrepreneurs will have the opportunity to learn more about business development and opportunities in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
Join us at the Forum to connect, innovate, and collaborate! Empowering young leaders to drive sustainable change and shape the future of entrepreneurship in a rapidly evolving world.
