HKSGV Case Competition
Since 2017, HKSGV has been annually hosting a case competition to introduce creating shared value (CSV) concepts to tertiary students through guiding them in creating business improvement proposals in response to real-life work situation (cases) at different corporates. Each year, we invite two to three corporates to be our case partners, engage about 10 dedicated mentors from different sectors and recruit 300-400 participants. Winning teams are then rewarded with fast-track interview for internship at their respective case partners and also cash prizes. The programme hopes to inspire students to be the next generation of “Do Good, Do Well” business leaders with a sound understanding CSV.
In 2022, HKSGV is honored to work with MTR Corporation's social innovation venture Carbon Wallet and The Coffee Academïcs as its case partners. In the past, we have also collaborated with D2 Place under LAWSGROUP, Lee Kee Group, OnBoard and Green Atrium under New World Development, Airport Authority Hong Kong and St. James’ Settlement.
