The Pitch Perfect Programme organized by the Chamber's Young Executives Club entered its second stage in December, when the participating students had the opportunity to visit the company they have been assigned to as part of the programme. Visits to five of the corporate sponsors – Chevalier Group, Lan Kwai Fong Group, Megasoft Ltd, MTR Corporation Ltd and NEC Hong Kong Ltd – took place in December, followed by Cathay Pacific Airways and Pan Asian Mortgage Company Ltd after Chinese New Year.

These visits gave students a better understanding of how the corporate world operates, as well as specific industry insights into their allocated company. At NEC, for example, they met the NEC Social Robot, which is helping to care for the elderly, while at MTR Corporation they went behind the scenes at the Operations Control Centre in Tsing Yi.

The visits will also help the students prepare for the later stages of the competition, where they will be interviewed for a hypothetical job by their corporate sponsor.
