Fortunate to join the United College Alumni Association’s Annual General Meeting, courtesy of my senior mentor Cheong from CUHK’s United College. Post-graduation, I’ve seldom engaged in alumni functions, but a recent hiking outing organized by the college introduced me to Cheong, sparking this opportunity.
Cheong exemplifies generosity toward juniors, sharing wisdom without reservation. Upon learning about my startup endeavors, he not only linked me with key figures but also invited me to the AGM for introductions to veteran members. There, I connected with the HKSEC founder—another United College graduate—opening doors to fresh insights on fostering ventures in Hong Kong’s ecosystem.
The evening wrapped with a delightful Chinese dinner at the Lawn Bowls Club restaurant, graciously hosted by our senior sister. Sharing the table with such distinguished individuals left me motivated, absorbing subtle lessons on leadership and perseverance that define excellence.
Heartfelt thanks once more to Cheong for his guidance—it’s gestures like these that propel emerging entrepreneurs forward.
