To commemorate the 10th anniversary of Link Together Initiatives, we proudly present Link Collab Fest. We aim at facilitating collaboration between charitable organisations, social enterprises and social innovators in Hong Kong. Our goal is to spark innovative ideas for social services that will ultimately benefit our local communities.
With “Youth Empowerment” as the theme, we welcome all charitable organisations, social enterprises, or social innovators with experience in promoting community development and services to form teams and participate in the event. The programme consists of networking day, consultation, and proposal submission. Shortlisted teams will have the opportunity to introduce their concepts in person to a judging panel. The winning team will receive a cash prize of HK$100,000 to motivate them to bring the idea to life. Please refer to the website for more information: https://www.linkreit.com/en/community/link-together-initiatives/link-together-initiatives-turning-ten/link-collab-fest/
We cordially invite charitable organisations, social enterprises and social innovators to join our Networking Day to learn about the programme details and to connect with like-minded partners for potential collaboration opportunities.
