It aims to advance executive training in Hong Kong and nurture business leaders equipped with an international perspective, a strong sense of social responsibility, and long-term value-driven leadership, thereby promoting the succession of entrepreneurial spirit generations by generations.

Linking Education with Philanthropy: Fulfilling the Social Mission of Entrepreneurship

On the philanthropic front, the three parties emphasised the social mission embedded in this collaboration. After deducting reasonable operating costs, all net proceeds from the course will be fully donated to support the “Dr Mac Classroom Reading Programme” & “Learning Living Chinese Programme”, both initiated by the Jing Yuan Charity Foundation and co-organised with the Parenting Headline, with the aim of promoting the long-term development of Chinese culture and language education.

Dr Kenneth KWONG, Associate Director of the Institute of Knowledge Exchange and Deputy Director of the Chinese Family Succession Research Centre at HSUHK, remarked that the sustainable development of enterprises and family businesses has never been solely about the wealth or size, but fundamentally concerns the transmission of values, cultural identity, and long-term social responsibility. Through this executive certificate course, the HSUHK hopes to provide professionals engaged in or aspiring towards enterprise and family business leadership with a learning platform that combines academic depth and practical reflection.

All three parties expressed their shared aspiration that this cross-sector collaboration—bringing together higher education, professional training, and philanthropy—will encourage society to rethink the definition of business success. By using education as a bridge connecting commerce, families, and the wider community, the partnership seeks to create long-term value with both depth and humanity.
