💡Have you ever wondered why Hong Kong could create 18 unicorns (3 were already listed) in the last 8 years? Grateful to have an opportunity to discuss with Cindy Chow, one of elite and pioneering leaders in the Hong Kong startups ecosystem, on this topic in our 🎬🎙#RTHK New Management Thinking programme #管理新思維. Cindy is the Executive Director of the globally-known #AEF Alibaba Entrepreneurs Fund. Really appreciate and heartfelt thank to Cindy for her insights and inspiring sharing.

AEF has invested and nurtured more than 60 startups since founded in 2015. 5 of those companies were either unicorns (#Airwallex#AnimocaBrands#WeLab) or listed companies (#GOGOX#Prenetics). Impressive and what a miracle that we had here in Hong Kong! However, we only had less than 0.5% of over 4,000 startups made this list. How can startups learn from the best and enhance their chance of success? I have discussed this theme with Cindy in our programme.

We looked at a few key things in specific.

1. What are the critical success factors and characteristics of the unicorns?

2. What has AEF done to nurture these unicorns?

3. How can we encourage and nurture more young people especially female students to participate in tech entrepreneurship journey?

4. How can we empower our startups to capture the opportunities in #GBA? How can Hong Kong play a pivotal role to empower GBA startups to expand to ASEAN and global market?

5. How do we pick the right startups to invest on? What new direction or types of startups that AEF is looking at? How do we attract the best startups to be our investment portfolio?

If you would like to learn more about all these questions from my discussion with Cindy, please tune in #RTHK1 radio this Sunday Jun 18 from 2pm to 4pm. Stay tuned and don’t miss it. https://lnkd.in/f-X8RaN

Grateful to have Cally Chan from #Microsoft to be my guest for another episode of the RTHK New Management Thinking programme #管理新思維. Appreciate her insightful sharing with us. Thanks to her teammate Bobo Wong for her great effort behind the scene.

We tapped into Cally’s brain on her view on a few interesting hot topics like Women In Tech, Hybrid Working Style, Startups, Digital Transformation, GenZ Talents, Sustainability and ESG, and certainly Cloud and MetaVerse.

We also explored the future of Hong Kong and GBA. Cally is a positive, passionate and visionary leader. She and I believe a healthy and vibrant ecosystem is super important for everyone’s success in Hong Kong. Knowing how to co-create values with the ecosystem will lead us to stay ahead of the curve.

Cally talked about “ABCD..EFGH”. What is it? Stay tuned to RTHK1 this Sunday Aug 21 at 2pm to listen to Cally’s sharing. https://lnkd.in/f-X8RaN

Back to the RTHK station today for recording another episode of New Management Thinking 管理新思維. Found a classical radio in 1950 there powered by Vaccum Tube. Oh, WOW! That actually made me think about my childhood with my whole family around a radio like this. It was as advanced and luxurious as what we have a 8k TV today. More importantly, a much more warmth and intimacy with my family back then. What a memory! Transforming a city from an old model to a smart city is like improving from a vintage radio to a 8K TV. Let’s talk about Smart City this time and why every citizen in Hong Kong should care about it. Grateful to have Thomson Lai, the Asia Digital Head of AECOM, as my guest for another fruitful episode in the RTHK’s New Management Thinking 管理新思維. #AECOM is one of key contributors in planning and building our city of Hong Kong in the last 60+ years. Received a book from Thomson called “Hong Kong Created Together”. Lots of Hong Kong’s history from nobody to one of the top cities with world-class infrastructure. Thanks the contribution from Thomson and his AECOM 艾奕康 colleagues. We started talking about what a smart city is. Then we discussed what Hong Kong has been doing in the journey of becoming a smart city, how other leading cities are doing, what key stakeholders are in a smart city and how they are empowering our city as a smart city. Certainly we talked about how emerging #technologies and #data are impacting smart cities. Very interesting. You don’t want to miss it. Really appreciate Thomson’s sharing and my RTHK partner Phoebe. My key takeaways are: 1. Citizen centricity 2. Innovation and entrepreneurship 3. Pan-city digital infrastructure If you would like to learn more from Thomson on Smart City now and the future, please tune in RTHK1 on Jun 19 at 2pm. https://lnkd.in/f-X8RaN For previous episodes of the programme, please visit here. https://lnkd.in/dWRkD_x7 #SmartCity #DigitalCity #RTHK #RTHK1 #FM94 #NewManagementThinking #管理新思維 #CUHK #CitizenJourney #MomentsOfLife #Data #BIM #DigitalTwins #AI #IOT #5G #MetaVerse #VR #Innovation #Entrepreneurship #Startups

Ravel has been applying technologies for retailers in all kinds from shoes, grocery, electronics to restaurants and shopping malls. He is a perfect expert to learn from on how retailers have been making use of technologies to solve problems, seize opportunities and handle crisis like the Covid-19.

We talked about technologies being used to overcome the pandemic. We explored the use of #BigData and #AI in #membership#logistics#eCommerce#O2O#NewRetail#SocialCRM, and more. We also shared on various collaboration examples with startups. Then, we discussed the future of retail and the impact of emerging tech like #MetaVerse and #XR on retail industry.
