With the conclusion of the Foundry 2024, we are proud to announce our winning teams:

Most Innovative Business Idea prizes went to:

The winning teams not only demonstrated tremendous creativity but were able to wrap their ideas around sound business considerations, impressing our 5-judge panel on each of the Sharing Day.
With the valuable support of the D.H. Chen Foundation, this year’s Foundry featured 11 teams from six schools around Hong Kong. Not only did their business ideas cover a broad range of areas, our participants were also from diverse backgrounds.There was no limit to presenting languages used during the day (and for the Foundry program generally). As a result, we heard presentations in English, Cantonese and Putonghua from different teams throughout the Sharing Days. Indeed, our final winners also featured teams that presented in all of these three languages; showcasing the real representation of Hong Kong’s younger generation nowadays.
Thank you to the D.H. Chen Foundation for their support which enables this year’s Foundry to broaden its scope and deepen our impact.
