Congratulations to the great success of the Hong Kong Institute of Marketing #HKIM Symposium 2022. The main theme this year is The New Frontier of Marketing – Connecting the dots of #MetaVerse. I have moderated 5 forums on MetaVerse in the last 2 months. This is the 6th one and it was inspiring and impressive. MetaVerse experts were there today to share their experience to empower large to small companies to ride on this huge MetaVerse wave. #Sandbox Erich Wong was there as the last speaker to connect all the dots in the space. Other speakers did a great job too. Kevin K T Lee #RedspotsGabriel K. #AiRMetaVerse, and Peter Lin #BlueArk were all very passionate on what they are doing on MetaVerse. Really thank to HKIM’s invitation to me to moderate such a great panel discussion there. Thanks Dr. Michael Chan, Ivan WongDr. Angus HoLucia Cheung and their teammates to organize such a great event. Appreciate all my panel guests for their insightful sharing Sally Chue #EventXRick Woo #LOSTBecky Wong #IndexGame and Jack Lau #Artcoin. Dare to try and transition from Web2 to Web2.5 then Web3 were some key ways to get us engage in this MetaVerse revolution. Do need to consider the social, people and environmental side of the MetaVerse before it becomes uncontrollable. From today’s insight, I start feeling that the Sky is the Only Limit for what we can innovate and achieve in the MetaVerse. A real revolution and tsunami is coming. We had better embrace and capitalize it, and make good use of it as well.

Just finished conducting a 4 days intensive and fruitful EMBA course on Innovation and Intrapreneurship Management for CUHK. On one hand, I am exhausted. On the other hand, I am very grateful as 83 top executives from the mainland China participated my class on Zoom even under the pandemic situation. Engaging 83 executive students for 4 full days on Zoom (plus conducted in Putonghua) was not easy as you could imagine but we did have a joyful and valuable learning experience together.

Not only the number of students has broken my record of teaching EMBA class, the quality of the students were very impressive. They came from different industries like property, professional services, design, manufacturing, engineering, technology and even agriculture. At the beginning, I had some doubt on how much they wanted to learn innovation and how much effort they would put on a course as they are all busy and uprising bosses and top executives. To my surprise, they were serious and really put lots of effort to learn. Really appreciate their passion and perservance to learn.

Apart from going through core concepts and models, we learned corporate innovations and intrapreneurship by exploring 10 influential and inspiring internationl and Chinese cases. We discussed, debated and learned through this process. It was also my honour to have three elite leaders as my guest speakers to share how they innovate as a startup (Sum Wong from #EventX), a tech giant (Jacqueline Chong from #Amazon#AWS) and a traditional enterprise (Damien Wu#ChinaChem). We all learned a lot from them. Really appreciate it.

Now, I need to relax a bit and get a good sleep. Enjoy the Easter Holiday!
