Briefing Session for New Funding Scheme for Youth Entrepreneurship in the GBA

The Chinese University of Hong Kong received dedicated funding from the Funding Scheme for Youth Entrepreneurship in the Guangdong-HK-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) under the Youth Development Fund, taking a step further its entrepreneurial support to local youngsters. 

Under the new Scheme, CUHK will offer up to HK$600K to successful teams of CUHK students and / or alumni to launch and expand their business in strategic industries, which anticipates more members of the University to explore the GBA market and opportunities. 

To help applicants preparing for the application and business plan, a briefing session will be organized on Friday April 23 (PM). At the briefing, we will share with participants tips on successful bidding for this scheme. Please join us to obtain the first-hand experience in preparing successful fund applications.
