Event

The CTF Life+, a dynamic new platform designed to engage university students and nurture future talent who demonstrate innovative thinking and a strong sense of social responsibility. We hope to gain your support and assistance in promoting the “CTF Life+” case competition, which is open to students from tertiary institutions across Hong Kong.

Participants will leverage Chow Tai Fook Group’s ecosystem and resources to develop ESG-focused solutions that promote financial empowerment to less privileged communities and foster positive social impact. Students can form teams of 4 or 6 members, or join individually and be grouped into teams. Each team will pair up with a CTF Life mentor for guidance throughout the competition, gain access to internship opportunities, and learn from expert speakers on corporate social responsibility and broader ESG topics.

Winning Teams will receive cash prizes ranging from HK$10,000 to HK$50,000, and be eligible for incubation funding from CTF Life+, with continued support from CTF Life to bring their ideas to life and co-create a better future. This competition is designed to spark innovation and creativity among the brightest students from local universities in HK.
