Alumni Spotlight: US Mayors and HKU Business School Alumni Drive Sustainability Conversations
2023- 10 - 30
The HKU Business School Alumni Association is proud to highlight the achievements of our distinguished alumnus at a recent event hosted by HKU Business School in partnership with the US Heartland China Association. Six US mayors from the American heartland engaged in a dynamic exchange of ideas and initiatives on sustainability, bridging the gap between the central plains of the United States and the rooftop farms of Causeway Bay.
Our MBA graduate, Mr. Raymond Mak shared his creative and thrilling entrepreneurial journey in founding his innovative award-winning green startup, Farmacy HK. Farmacy is the latest winner of Hong Kong ICT Startup Awards (overall Grand Award and Social Impact Gold Award). The award-winning technology (i.e. Smart Mobile Farms), enable supermarkets, restaurants, hotels, office, schools, and neighbourhood to grow what they want and harvest what they need onsite. Farmacy helps to reduce 30% food waste and achieve 1.86 tons carbon emission on every sqm of farm, while securing 100% freshness and nutrition intake from the vegetables.
Our HKU Business School alumni continue to make a lasting impact in the world of sustainability. We are proud to celebrate their achievements and contributions to both the local and global community!
