More than 100 schools and companies have signed up for the 23rd iteration of HKGCC’s Business-School Partnership (BSP) Programme, joining forces to create a transformative educational experience for Hong Kong’s youths.
The opening ceremony on 6 October brought together representatives from all the participating schools and companies and provided a unique opportunity for collaboration and networking. Chamber CEO Patrick Yeung gave an introduction to the programme and emphasized the importance of such partnerships in nurturing the next generation of business leaders.
The energy in the room was palpable as professionals from diverse backgrounds and industries convened to help shape the future of business education. Participants eagerly delved into discussions, brainstorming potential activities and initiatives for the upcoming academic year. Through events such as company visits, workshops, mentoring programmes and networking sessions, the programme helps students gain real-world insights, develop practical skills, and build connections in the business community.
The Chamber’s BSP Programme has been successfully bridging the gap between academia and industry for more than two decades. Each iteration has been more successful than the last, positively impacting hundreds of students, and empowering the next generation of business leaders with the skills and knowledge they need to make a lasting impact on Hong Kong and the world.
