Golden Age Fellows

5th Cohort Golden Age Fellows Programme

5th Cohort Golden Age Fellows Graduation Ceremony

Showcasing social innovative prototypes and idea boards

After two months of vigorous training, our Golden Age Fellows concluded the Programme on the 17th December 2022 at the "5th Cohort Golden Age Fellows Graduation Ceremony". 30 Golden Age Fellows were split into 8 teams and each team presented their project passionately in front of a judging panel. Our fellows demonstrated their accomplishments and walked us through their social innovative journey behind their inventions. First time in five years, young students were also recruited in the programme and the result of cross-generation training was super effective! The projects were filled with creativity, practicality, and social value; overall, the presentations were beautifully executed and all the ideas presented were dazzlingly attractive. The day was amazing!

Three corporate elites joined our judging panel as guest judges: Ms Shelley Li, Project Director, Strategic Planning Department, BOC Group Life Assurance Company Limited; Ms Dona Chan, Director of Sales - Government Corporate Market, China Mobile Hong Kong Co Ltd; and Mr Kelvin Chan, Assistant General Manager, Global Security, NEC Hong Kong Limited. Guest judges commented that all our Golden Age Fellows performed extraordinarily well and remarked that some ideas could even rival inventors at a professional level!
