Attention all alumni, athletes, and sports enthusiasts – come join our first-ever Sports & Business Forum at Rayson Huang Theatre on Sunday March 17!

Following the Opening Remarks from our Dean who will introduce the upcoming Pokfield campus that will be home to both the business school as well as the new HKU-wide sports centre in 2025, our famous alumnus, Olympian, singer, actor, and sports entrepreneur, Alex Fong, will sit down for a fireside chat with current i-Cable News Anchor & former HKU Sports Scholar, Cheryl Yuen.

This will be followed by an inspiring speech from Fenella Ng, who is a Hong Kong three-time Olympian in two sports (swimming & rowing), as well as Sydney Games 2000 Opening Ceremony Flagbearer.

Fenella will then moderate the “Balancing Life as a Business School Student & Star Athlete” panel session featuring Liam Doherty, Men’s Rugby Asian Games 2023 Gold Medal & Player of the Tournament, as well as Sandy Choi, who is a current member of the Hong Kong Sailing Team who placed 1st in the 2021 49er FX Asian Championships.
