Founded in 2021 and incubated by Hong Kong Design Centre, Dress Green is a design-driven social enterprise that promotes sustainable development through creativity. One of Dress Green’s initiatives is UNI Green, of which the name “UNI” stands for “Uniform” and “Unique”. Believing in the uniqueness of uniforms, UNI Green is a programme that aims to lengthen the retail life cycles of overstock uniforms from schools and other uniformed corporates. After collecting unsold and/or unsaleable uniforms from the organisations, UNI Green hires job-seeking individuals - mostly from the disadvantaged community - to help give these uniforms a new life as souvenirs and stitched products. Unlike most graduation and corporate souvenirs that are mass-produced, UNI Green’s locally produced keepsakes are uniquely designed according to the motifs and colours specific to each supplying uniform. Some uniforms are also used in upcycling workshops that serve to educate students and staff members about upcycling. This initiative not only reduces uniform waste, but also creates meaningful employment opportunities for disadvantaged individuals and educates the community about sustainable fashion.

In 2022, Dress Green upcycled over 1,000 products and created over 1,000 hours of working opportunities for local elderly and housewives. Among these products, the ones designed with old uniforms through the project of UNI Green even won the DFA Design for Asia Award 2022 and Hong Kong Smart Design Award 2022. The story of UNI Green was also featured by RTHK, HK01, am730, Sing Tao, Yahoo!, Metro Broadcast, Metro Pop, and Parenting Headlines.

Trilingcal is a training group that targets non-Chinese-speaking (NCS) youngsters, to whom we provide job-related education with trilingual learning materials. With an operation mode comparable to Inno330, a social enterprise cafe that offers workplace training for people in recovery of mental illness, we strive to equip NCS youngsters with job-related soft skills, as well as the common job etiquette in Hong Kong’s predominantly Chinese-speaking workplace. We also hire NCS mentors to help us with co-designing customised learning materials, and creating learning videos that could help improve the learning efficacy of NCS students. Our training programme offers:

1.   Internships and job opportunities for NCS youngsters to enhance their job readiness, with complementary courses taught by NCS mentors, as NCS youngsters lack pre-job training to accustom  them to Hong Kong’s workplace culture;
   
   
2. Affordable Chinese lessons for NCS learners, as a low Chinese level is evidently linked to academic and employment difficulties for NCS individuals in Hong Kong;
   
   
3. Chinese learning materials that are specifically designed with the help of NCS tutors, using the languages that are commonly used among the NCS communities. These materials will be used in courses such as Chinese enhancement, Manner Training, Pre-P1, and Pre-S1 Preparation, etc., as most pre-existing Chinese learning materials are not effectively designed to fit NCS students’ needs
   
   
4. A sense of solidarity within the NCS community with the contribution from parent volunteers.

By providing the NCS community with Chinese learning  resources that are culturally customised, and career-related soft skills that can help them excel in Hong Kong’s workplace, Trilingcal endeavours to ultimately promote empowerment for NCS youngsters in Hong Kong.

Since its establishment in 2019, THE LOOPS has been known as a leading one-stop door-to-door recycling centre in Hong Kong.

Waste problems are the results of resource misallocation. Currently, there is no effective way that allows people to give away their unwanted items and take back what they needed. In the end, many of these items go to waste even though some people in society need them.

Accepting more than 40 types of recyclable materials, The Loops offers the smoothest and easiest recycling path to both households and offices. Recyclables are collected right at the doorstep, sorted through, and then delivered to recycling factories for recycling, or shops for reuse.

Our employees are unemployed homemakers who come from the disadvantaged community. We provide them with a very family-friendly work schedule, as well as the options to work in their neighbourhood; in some cases, they could even work in the same building they live in. We believe this is a process of empowerment as it enables them to contribute financially to their families, and also socially to their communities.

While disposable packaging brings immense convenience to our modern daily lifestyle, it also creates the pressing problems of waste and pollution. Here at The Loops, however, our belief is that, since everything is eventually disposable in a linear economy, the problem is never what materials we use, but how we treat them after using them. After all, it is the afterlife of these materials that defines a circular economy and, thus, completes the Loops.

Tamee is an education and social networking platform that is established to connect corporates that are seeking to sponsor quality ESG activities with students who are in search of opportunities to materialise their ESG projects. By providing support to both parties using the framework of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (UN-SDGs), we aim to kickstart more structured ESG projects, influence personal values and foster interpersonal bonds, as well as, ultimately, promote the adoption and implementation of the UN-SDGs in Hong Kong.

While students in Hong Kong often devote themselves to projects that could help brush up their extracurricular activities profile, thus benefiting their applications to academic institutions, many of them are especially passionate about undertaking projects that involve potential social impact. Although such passion can be seen as their attempt to solve the world’s problems with creativity, they usually lack the necessary credentials that could help them attract sponsorships from companies, let alone making the projects happen.

Meanwhile, in recent years, companies are also observed to have become increasingly concerned about their social and environmental contributions. This is likely due to the fact that after ESG reporting was made mandatory in Hong Kong, a company’s efforts to make an impact in ESG have become an indicator of its success. However, recent ESG activities are often unstructured, lacking proper measurements or governance standards. This poses a challenge to impact assessment and resource allocation for companies, which in turn may obstruct the upscaling of impactful projects.

In light of this, Tamee aims to bridge the gap between Hong Kong’s young talents and companies by providing online and offline support.

We partnered with the UN Industrial Development Organisation Global Innovation Network Project (UNIDO GIN Project), a specialised agency in the UN, with whom we provide online and offline education for students aged 12-22 on the 17 UN-SDGs, project formations, and team formations. We assist teenagers in achieving their goals of co-creating social impact and enhancing their profiles with credible extra-curricular activities or certificates.

On the other end of the bridge, we also help listed companies in growing their social impact, thus polishing their ESG reports, by providing ESG reporting services which will specifically allow them to select their sponsorship recipients from various student-initiated projects that have verifiably incorporated UN-SDGs.

SEN Technology strives to deliver solutions that can make things easier for professionals who work with children with special educational needs (SEN). These include SEN teachers, educational psychologists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, social workers, and physical therapists, all of whom endeavour to provide students with quality education that corresponds to their unique needs. Currently, in Hong Kong, the shortage of SEN professionals not only lays a heavy workload on these professionals, but also delays the appropriate help for SEN families, such as individualised training and support, for up to 12 months.

Myotapps City is a gamified training tool that is developed to satisfy the needs of all parties. It supports SEN professionals in designing home training programmes for SEN students aged 3 to 17 years old, with the objectives of improving their academic, behaviourial, and functional performance. With this accessible, affordable, and interactive tool, professionals can easily perform independent training with each student by assigning the just-right challenges to them, as well as keep track of their progress. The tool is also designed to satisfy most, if not all, needs of various parties, thanks to its growing set of evidence-based training that targets executive functioning, handwriting, social, fine motor, and visual perceptual skills, all of which are designed and developed by a team of SEN professionals. With Myotapps City, students no longer have to wait for months until receiving suitable support, but be able to receive customised training anytime and anywhere, just with a touchscreen device.

Re:learn is a digital learning platform that provides an enhanced hybrid learning experience with self-developed immersive Virtual Reality (VR) educational solutions for both remote and face-to-face learners. With this platform, both learners and tutors - regardless of physical abilities - can interact in VR conditions from anywhere without any physical constraints. Through a series of offline workshops designed for disabled tutors-to-be, especially those who are wheelchair-bound, Re:learn trains and hires them as the VR developers or coordinators of our VR workshops, so that classes can take place remotely. Some of the previous workshops were co-developed with other social enterprises, thus fitting the requirements for both the local STEAM and Value Education curricula. The expected outcomes include:

1. Wheelchair-bound talents can receive better job opportunities after 1) being equipped with highly transferable Web 3.0 digital skills through on-the-job training, 2) being enabled a flexible working arrangement that allows for remote working thanks to the nature of VR, and 3) having their self-esteem and confidence been gradually developed through teaching and interacting with others without psychological barriers, as suggested by the Chief Accessibility Officer of Ruh Global Impact.
   
   
2. Local schools can have more feasible hybrid learning solutions that engage with students both remotely and face to face, allowing them to learn and interact with one another through gamified and immersive VR content without physical constraints. Studies show that VR learning can achieve a knowledge retention rate of 75%, in contrast to lecture-style learning at 5%. More importantly, disabled tutors can even serve as positive role models to students by educating them about disability and diversity.

Pink Dolphin Academy Limited is Hong Kong’s first female-friendly, culturally inclusive swimming and hydrotherapy academy. We offer female-exclusive swimming classes and hydrotherapy for women, especially those with ethnic minority (EM) backgrounds.

Currently, there are no aquatic activities suitable for most women of EM backgrounds in Hong Kong. This is because swimming classes available, public and private, are either religiously inappropriate for women following the Islamic practices, as they are held in mixed-gender pools and mostly coached by male coaches, or they simply lack linguistic diversity. In addition, modest swimming outfits that are appropriate for Muslim women, i.e., Burkini, are widely inaccessible in Hong Kong. As a result, EM women are epidemiologically more susceptible to chronic diseases that often develop from a sedentary lifestyle. That includes a high prevalence of metabolic diseases, such as diabetes and hypertension, and joint degenerative diseases, namely osteoarthritis, amongst middle-aged EM women.

By providing an environment that is not only female-friendly but also culturally and linguistically diverse, Pink Dolphin Academy aims to inspire sportsmanship amongst ethnic minority women; promote physical, social, and emotional health; and more importantly, promote equity and inclusion in the arena of aquatic sports in Hong Kong - all at affordable prices.

In the last six months, we successfully trained 101 participants of nine different ethnicities, aged between 8 and 60. Soon, we will also offer hydrotherapy with live interpretation to middle-aged women suffering from metabolic diseases and joint degenerative diseases.

Every day, in Hong Kong, a significant quantity of food that looks less than perfect is directly sent to waste, despite being perfectly delicious and nutritious. This type of food is known as “ugly food”, which is often thrown away simply because they look misshapen, off-sized, or a little bruised and damaged. In light of this situation, it is NOT ONLY POWDER’s mission to rescue these ugly foods, specifically fruits, from being wasted. But instead of producing more food to meet people’s demands, our plan is to better utilise the food we already have. 

NOT ONLY POWDER collaborates with local fruit stores to collect ugly fruits that were intended to be discarded. We then upcycle these fruits by slicing them into pieces, dehydrating them with freeze-drying technology, and blending them into powder form. Through this upcycling process, the products’ 2-week shelf life will be lengthened to 1 year. Our powdered products can be widely used in drinks, desserts, dishes, and pastries, to name a few. Furthermore, we also strive to leverage on technology to facilitate communication, foster collaboration, and improve business agility between our partners and us, which is why we will provide a channel for our partners to update their ugly fruits inventory.  We are proud to announce that, after making various iterations, we are now ready with our first collection! What about you?

As the problem of ageing population continues to spread around the globe, swallowing disorders have also come under the spotlight as a more common medical condition in our society. Swallowing disorders have been a rising concern of the professionals working on elderly healthcare, since the associated diseases may not only lower people’s quality of life but even be fatal. Support is, therefore, the key to swallowing disorder prevention, which can ultimately safeguard quality of life, reduce medical expenses, and most importantly, ensure survival. However, the current system lacks the resources and manpower to provide regular rehabilitation services for people with swallowing disorders. Such services include swallowing exercises, which are known to be helpful in improving oral motor functions of at-risk older adults.

Besides, under the situation of the COVID-19 pandemic over the past few years, many clinical sessions have been switched from face-to-face to online mode. This suggests that the rehabilitation industry is becoming more adapted to the online approach under the new normal. Therefore, there is foreseeable trend of mobile applications being a more prevalent tool in assisting speech therapy.

Hence, the solution our team has created to minimise the impact swallowing disorders have on our elderly population is MotOral, a mobile application that assists speech therapists in providing at-risk older adults with preventive measures for swallowing disorders.  Fun and engaging exercises are also included in the application, so that users could train their oral motor muscles without feeling overwhelmed.

With MotOral, life is made easier.

Invisible Environmental Technology, also known as Invisible Tech, is a tech startup that focuses on achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by transforming wood waste into sellable technology assets through a unique Environmental-Social-Governance (ESG) Ecosystem. Invisible Tech produces educational and tech products, such as STEM Audio DIY Kit and solar-powered devices, with upcycled wood waste materials, through which the use of technology also gives them new lives in a more meaningful and impactful way in the tech education and lifestyle sectors. Additionally, Invisible Tech owns patents for various self-developed design and technologies which are also integrated into our ESG products. By applying leading technology to our innovative upcycled products, we aim to further create social impact. Besides hardware production, Invisible Tech also established the online ESG digital platform The Invisible Eco-Hub to track material flow from wood waste to upcycled products with the use of blockchain and NFT technologies. By enabling transparency of ownership transfers for parties ranging from wood waste generators to end customers through the omni-channel strategy, The Invisible Eco-Hub serves to eventually resolve the root cause of wood waste issue.

Invisible Tech has been recognised by various reputable organisations, including the Hong Kong Science Park Incubation Programme 2022 (awardee), HKU’s Technology Start-up Support Scheme for Universities (TSSSU) 2022 (awardee), the Hong Kong Universities Student Innovation and Entrepreneur Competition 2021 (first runner-up), the HKTDC IP Hatch Innovation Challenge 2021 (awardee), the HKU MEICOM Tang Chui Wai Hing Project Prize 2020-21 (awardee), and the IDA Design Award (Bronze), to name a few.

Each year, there is an addition of approximately 45 million new chronic disease cases worldwide, and according to WHO’s 2020 study, 91% of these cases would lead to mental health conditions. Mental health conditions not only worsen chronic diseases, but also discourage patients from adhering to medical treatment. Unfortunately, Hong Kong people have considerably inadequate access to mental health resources, considering the psychiatrist-to-population ratio of 4.5:100,000. Determined to make a change, Hollo aims to reduce the inequality of mental healthcare accessibility in an increasingly decentralised healthcare system.

Hollo is an app-based, digital mental healthcare platform for chronic patients, providing them with precision psychiatry treatment through clinically graded Digital Therapeutics (DTx), which is powered by Multimodal Biomarker AI. The Multimodal Biomarker AI allows psychodiagnosis to be done via alternative media (such as using patient videos for facial, vocal, or semantic recognition of any unconscious emotional signals), while also considering the complexity of a patient’s profile, including one’s physical symptoms, mental health reported data, background behavioural data, etc.

Our treatments are digitised and gamified versions of evidence-based interventions, which consist of psychoeducational content, mindfulness activities, and psychological exercises; these would be prescribed to patients as a 5-week programme to work through. By leading them towards mindfulness and value-based goal setting, patients would become more accepting of their life conditions and focus more on the positive aspects of their lives, which would ultimately help them to return to communities and reconnect with others.

We are currently at the stage of validating our products through clinical studies, which are carried out in association with a university research partnership, with the aim to obtain FDA’s approval. For the next step, we hope to partner with insurance companies and pharma to distribute our products via hospitals, clinics, and telemedicine service providers, so that we can help achieve better patient outcomes and higher treatment adherence.

With global warming causing rapid increase in global temperature and an annual surge of 25-40% in electricity fees, Green Future thinks that it is time to strive for carbon neutrality in Hong Kong in a bid to combat this wider issue, Meanwhile, we also notice the way local sunset industries have been more vigorously urged to cease operation in recent years, not to mention the toll which the upcoming bills hike may further take on these businesses.

In light of this situation, our team at Green Future - which has extensive technical knowledge and working experience in the renewable sector - has figured out the ideal solution to all these problems - Agrivoltaics. By designing and installing agrivoltaics in Hong Kong’s farmland, we could enable simultaneous use of the land for both photovoltaic power generation and agricultural purposes; while the environment could be preserved through the generation of green energy, farmers’ businesses could also benefit from the extra source of income and the increase in their crop yield.

Our early study shows that with optimal spacing, temperature, and humidity level, not only would the system not impair crop growth, but it can even increase yield. We are excited to see more tremendous results from some of our early adopters as we continue to expand our network of partners to other jurisdictions.

Green Ashes is a green tech startup that focuses on producing sustainable activated carbon using agricultural and forestry waste. Our first prototype of activated carbon is made from dried pine tree leaves, considering that dried pine needles are known to be the main cause of wildfires. Yielding a high adsorption efficiency of over 90%, this new generation of activated carbon is not only more sustainable with reduced carbon footprints and emissions, but also more cost-effective as compared to conventional activated carbon, which is mainly made from coal.  Moving forward, Green Ashes is determined to kill two birds with one stone by alleviating the problem of wildfires while also turning wastes into valuables at the same time.

The growing trend of activated carbon usage in different industries indicates the likelihood of more coal mines being exploited to meet the rising demand. Unless we come up with a new solution, the carbon footprint of the activated carbon production industry would continue to increase, eventually leading the industry to an unsustainable future.

Green Ashes is taking the first step to embrace a new approach, which is to transform the way of activated carbon production into a more sustainable one by fully utilising unwanted agricultural and forestry waste. We help the agricultural and forestry sectors to get rid of their waste and transform them into profitable resources; on one hand, we help activated carbon manufacturers save up carbon quota; on the other, we provide high-quality sustainable activated carbon to buyers. Our ultimate aim is to help these parties to achieve SDGs and fulfil carbon neutrality in the long run.

This technology enables products that typically come in concentrated liquid form, such as detergents, cosmetics, and body care solutions, to be stored conveniently as a compact silica capsule, which can also control the release of contents when it is in contact with water.

The Product
Gel Soap is ESGuardian’s first product that adopts our silica capsule technology. With this design, it is expected to perform more efficiently than liquid hand soap but with a lower carbon-footprint and cost - every 10g of gel soap is equivalent to 1 litre of liquid hand soap in terms of performance. Our gel soap currently comes in two different sizes, namely a 50g one for corporation use and a 10g one for household use.

Unique Proposition
Comparing with conventional liquid hand soap products, gel soap has a 99% reduction in weight which significantly reduces its CO2 emissions in logistics. Besides, the capsule form of the product encourages customers to reuse their eco-friendly dispensers instead of the disposable plastic ones, through which it could reduce the overall use of plastic bottles and, thus, minimise the threat of plastic waste to the environment.

Milestone
The 10g-sized gel soap will be officially launched in 1Q2023, with its first sales starting at the Mills bazaar in mid-January 2023. We are also expanding our network of distribution partners and online shop channels - so far, we have approached several property management companies which manage over 100 shopping malls and offices, and discussed the possibility of conducting a trial for our product.

4U Inclusive Fitness Ltd. is a social sporting enterprise in Hong Kong. Our aim is to promote inclusive gym culture, which then provides people with special needs, such as the disabled and the elderly, with the opportunities to join others in training in the scene of mainstream fitness. Considering the differences which the disabled and the elderly have in health conditions, physical abilities, and thus sporting requirements, we believe that by providing them with guidance from professional trainers, their specific needs can be met and they can eventually enjoy more desirable sporting experiences.

The income we obtain from mainstream users will partly be used for social support purposes, with the ultimate aim of allowing people with special needs to train in gyms at a lower cost. Besides, 4U Inclusive Fitness Ltd. intends to cooperate with related organisations to regularly hold different inclusion activities, such as talks and workshops, to raise public awareness of the importance of inclusive sport culture.

For the disabled and the aged, unfortunately, physical constraints are not the largest difficulties they face, but the lack of support from organisations and professional trainers who are equipped with specific knowledge of training the physically challenged. It upsets us to see the way this community’s interest in sports is often left unsatisfied simply because the regular fitness service providers are frightened by the risk of having to take responsibility for any potential injuries.

This is why 4U Inclusive Fitness was born - we believe everyone has equal rights to enjoy the sports they like because, just as our slogan says, “Everyone deserves better.”

"Turn Trash into Treasure" - WaysOut Hong Kong provides young underprivileged mothers with training and job opportunities through upcycling household food waste into sustainable jewelry.

We are building an ecosystem that comprises 3 spectrums – (1) creating opportunities for young underprivileged mothers, (2) upcycling waste fruit peel and veggies into sustainable jewelry, and (3) creatively educating the public on food waste.

We have already recruited 5 young underprivileged mothers onto our Marvel Mami talent-training development program with job and training opportunities with flexible working hours. We aim to enhance their capabilities to improve their financial situations and also becoming socially active with the community. In the course of 12 months, we have provided a remarkable 500+ hours of training and social engagement. During this time, our Marvel Mami have handcrafted a range of sustainable jewelry and also taken up leadership roles in facilitating our public educational workshops and markets! Our Marvel Mami are obviously fully satisfied with the talent-training development program!

WaysOut reduces food waste, reduces pressure on landfills, but fulfills the market demand for sustainable fashion items and locally made products. Amazingly, in the past year, we have hosted more than 37 educational #TrashyTreasure Workshops in partnership with secondary schools, universities and other organizations, for example, Unilever, CUHK, the Methodist Centre, Yuen Long Merchants Association Secondary School, TECM.

Our #TrashyTreasure workshops and markets are also reaching out into the community, with over 1,000 individuals promising to take individual action towards sustainability – turning more trash into more treasure!

Hong Kong has been well-known for its burdensome housing cost. While public housing usually takes too long to process, an estimated 226K of citizens chose to cram into subdivided flats that brought their tenants high social alienation, depression and suicidal risks. Some youngsters know about co-living but feel concerned about the reliability, match of personality and lifestyle and the liaison with landlords.

In light of such health inequality from HK’s housing conditions, we hence created UKEI (Cantonese pronunciation of “Home”) - a geo-networking app that matches flatmates with flatmates, tenants with landlords, in dating-apps-like fun processes and with the aid of big data and psychology-backed Artificial Intelligence (AI) analysis. On UKEI, tenant users can conveniently match with each other by borrowing the science of valid psychology tests that surround extraversion, conscientiousness and other attributes, all tested to be most relevant to co-living. Our deep-learning mechanism, via repeated exposure, will then learn each user’s preferences and deduce the best matches for them.

On one hand, we nurture the confidence in co-living among young working professionals, local tertiary education students and non-local students who seek for shared-living at lower cost, independent yet comfortable lifestyle or short-term living. On the other hand, UKEI equips landlords with versatility to rent to grouped tenants instead of entire families, as well as big data insights for retargeting. Through building trust among these parties, UKEI ultimately aims to promote a healthy co-living culture, ultimately helping the younger generations secure quality housing, with reliable buddies, at more bearable cost.

TalkTag is a low-cost NFC reader/writer designed for visually impaired persons (VIPs) to be used for audio reminders and identifying everyday objects. It allows VIPs to associate NFC stickers, which are cheap and can be stuck to many surfaces, with audio reminders set by the VIPs themselves. The reminder set will be played back when the device is simply placed in near proximity of the NFC sticker.

This has a wide variety of applications including assisting in the identification of sensitive personal items, especially those with similar shapes, such as cards in a wallet, to everyday items like books, CDs, and even medicine. This independent device has been developed with feedback from VIPs and so it includes accessibility features designed specifically for them. However, due to its simplicity, affordability and reliability, this idea has wider applications for other groups, including the elderly who may be suffering from age-related memory loss.

Interestingly, it is also easy to see how many existing devices can be improved by using NFC technology. This is because an NFC tag can be read/sensed from several centimetres away – a very similar process to using an “Octopus” card (a commonly used fast payment technology using in Hong Kong). This will bring a huge improvement in tag sensing performance, as it is easy to explain how to use our device. Finally, the concept of using NFC tags will become more widely used because they are rewritable and so new tags will be unnecessary for soundtrack modification.

"SENtoR" network is a social innovative platform in training up, pairing up and following up the tutors and interest class teachers in serving the children with Special Education Need (SEN). The tutors and interest class teachers would be working together with Speech Therapist (ST), Occupational Therapist (OT), Social Worker (SW) and Special Child Care Worker (SCCW) to provide outreach services for the people with Special Education Need (SEN), such as Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLD), Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The project adopted a hybrid model of "T (Therapist) plus T (tutor)" to develop the competency of the tutors or interest class teachers in serving the people with SEN.

The name of the project “SENtoR” refers to “SEN to R (R for Rehabilitation and Resources)” and “SEN-centered tutoring and mentoring” as the purpose and goal. The vision of the project aims to create a nurturing and supportive community for the children and youth with Special Educational Needs (SEN) and their family. The mission of the project is to connect people with SEN and their family to the trained private SEN tutors and interest class teachers as the rehabilitation related resources in the community.

We at Planeteers envision replacing disposable cutlery with incrEDIBLE! - our 100% vegan, biodegradable, delicious and edible cutlery. If one is too full to eat it, it can be composted completely, enabling an end-to-end closed life cycle loop. Our beneficiaries include our well-known partner restaurants like Treehouse, Green Common, Swire group and Jardines, who are interested in replacing their cutlery with incrEDIBLE! So, diners will enjoy a better culinary experience, and central kitchens will be provided with an additional income source.

Technology has been the backbone for us to bring incrEDIBLE! to market. However, in order to replace single-use plastic and wooden cutlery, we had to offer restaurants an extremely competitive price of less than 50 cents/unit to entice them. We are only able to achieve this price by dramatically reducing the opportunity cost for our partner manufacturers to make incrEDIBLE! We achieved this by developing a proprietary mould design which cuts, moulds, and places 25 units of cutlery in the oven within one swift motion. Our design managed to slash production costs and allowed us to match the prices of single-use disposable cutlery!

The facts speak for themselves! incrEDIBLE!’s carbon footprint is 4.6 times less than bioplastic and 2.1 times less than wooden cutlery. By 2023, we project that we will be replacing 9 tonnes of disposable cutlery and in the process, manage to reduce emissions equivalent to planting 11,000 trees in Hong Kong! That’s incrEDIBLE!

PanopticAI's award-winning camera-based health and wellness monitoring solution provides users with a holistic analysis of their health simply by using the camera of their smartphone, tablet, or computer. Users can learn about their physiological signs (e.g., heart rate, respiratory rate, heart rate variability, stress index, etc.) and get actionable insights from their own comfort and privacy within 30 seconds. By combining remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) techniques with AI computer vision and signal processing, our software algorithms extract a person’s vital signs by analyzing subtle changes in skin color due to blood flow. Accurate measurement of these core vitals enables further diagnostic capabilities such as fever, stress, cardiac and respiratory risks, and more.

PanopticAI’s unique value proposition is a contactless technology for the acquisition, analysis, and interpretation of health information that would traditionally require the use of a contact-based sensor. Although contact-based health monitoring devices have risen in popularity, they suffer from everlasting complications (e.g., costs, upgrades, charging, shipping, etc.). Our camera-based monitoring solution offers a more efficient and affordable alternative that directly improves the user's quality of life.

The company was founded by a multidisciplinary team of researchers and scientists spun-out of HKUST and are currently incubated at the Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks. The team is committed to powering the next era of high-performance solutions with innovative technologies that are backed by academic research expertise in AI algorithms, advanced data analytics, and cloud computing.

“Neurodyssey” (心腦歷情) is a social enterprise aiming to promote well-being and boost the physical, cognitive and psychosocial development of SEN kids.

We developed the [友童感] Walk Along With the Kids program, a one-stop service platform for SEN families, especially for those in financial difficulties. The program starts with a neuropsychological assessment, then we customize the intervention program based on scientific data. We have developed a set of professional neuropsychological assessments and a tailor-made intervention program for SEN kids with expertise from Dr SIU (Team member: Dr SIU, PhD in Neuropsychology, specializing in neuropsychological assessment and intervention research on children with SEN for over 10 years). We are able to offer a wide variety of interventions supported by our registered therapist pool, including music, horticulture, brick-by-brick [formerly known as Lego Therapy]. We adopted a feedback mechanism to regularly monitor the progress on SEN kids and adjust the intervention program accordingly to ensure high effectiveness.

We have a good network of NGOs and corporates/financial institutions. We also keep a frequent dialogue with NGOs to fill their gap of services by offering our programs, then we pitch corporates/financial institutions for funding and leverage their financial resources to help SEN kids. Nowadays, many large corporate and financial institutions, all have a budget for Corporate Social Responsibility (“CSR”) and Environment, Social, Governance (“ESG”). Our program offering at affordable costs will fit most budgets.

‘Without good mental health, people feel unable or less able to carry out activities of daily living, including self-care, education, employment and participation in social life.’ (SDG target 3.4)

90% occupants of inadequate housing suffer from mental health issues. An inadequate housing dwelling provides an average area of 6 sq.m little more than a bed, which may not even be enough for sleeping and is far from ideal to rest in. In fact, the lack of resting space is Hong Kong peoples’ daily life. Studies found that exposure to long term stress without sufficient rest may cause burn out. LAY designs space with multiple stress-relieving elements, such as sound, visuals and odour of nature, providing tranquility for users to relieve stress and in long term reduce risk of health issues. LAY focuses on early intervention to avoid the high costs of emotional therapy. With the previous prototype of designing a personal emotional haven, users’ subjective wellbeing has increased in 30% (from 6.3 to 8.2).

LAY Anywhere is being developed as a portable installation that can be easily deployed in different NGOs for the target beneficiaries, so that the service can be extended to benefit more people. It provides immersive, convenient breaks for the underprivileged that suit their availability. This is facilitated by using VR to break through the walls and immerse in a virtual and natural environment. Other technologies would also be applied to improve the effectiveness. LAY Anywhere would be deployed in the NGOs serving the occupants of inadequate housing. It is easy to install and demolish, without NGOs having to commit to assign a permanent space. It also reduces the costs of renovation.

Wellness should not be for those who can afford it only but for everyone. By providing the Personal Emotional Haven to users, the occupants of inadequate housing can relieve stress. As supported by studies this would reduce the medical cost to society due to long term stress of workers.

Kinnectus is a matching platform that merges behavioral therapy with technology, to deliver a quality and affordable service for the special educational needs (SEN) community. Through Kinnectus, parents with SEN children can search and book assessments as well as find suitable Chartered Special Needs Tutors (CSNT) and community centres in real time for therapy sessions.

However, since the need for qualified CSNTs has often been greater than the resources available, the Chartered Special Needs Tutors Institute was established by Bridge AI to train parents and caregivers to become qualified Chartered Special Needs Tutors (CSNT) to conduct high quality behavioral therapy sessions.

To become qualified, prospective CSNTs will go through online training, practical role-play sessions, practicum training and computer system training. After attaining the qualification, CSNTs will be able to conduct therapy sessions for SEN children anytime, anywhere, further allowing them to reach their full potential.

The development of Kinnectus marks an important step as it connects qualified tutors and resources to create stronger communities and a support network. It does so by connecting the parents with SEN children, children with SEN, CSNTs and different community centres.

Kinnectus also increases job opportunities, income and allows a flexible schedule for people who are passionate in working with SEN children. Finally, Kinnectus increases the utilization of different community centres in order to serve the needs of the community. Through this support network, low income families with SEN children will be able to receive quality behavioral therapy at a much lower cost.

Hello, we are Homey Cafe! We are a social enterprise entrepreneurial team composed of a group of college students and we plan to open a social enterprise cat cafe within one year.

First, let us introduce what's behind our name. Homey - meaning a place that feels at home, comfortable and friendly. We hope to bring this feeling to all our customers, employees, and stray cats.

As a social enterprise, we would like to provide supported employment for young people with autism, so that they can have real work experience and improve their chances of employability. With proper training and the assistance of professional social workers, they will be equipped with different skills including making coffee, packing goods, as well as taking care of stray cats. This not only enhances their sense of competence, but also enables them to reintegrate into the free market and achieve self-reliance.

However, what makes us stand out from ordinary cat cafes is our social value. We would like to save stray cats from a tragic ending, so they can live a life with a happy ending. Through our business operation, we will provide the cats with temporary shelter and let more people have the opportunity to socialise with them. It is our ultimate desire to let people understand the story of each stray cat and help the right person find the right cat to live happily ever after!

Exacerbated by the pandemic and social unrest in 2019, mental health issues are prevalent among university students and youths in Hong Kong. For low-income young people who have emotional distress, their needs for support fail to be addressed by current public services due to the long waiting lists for public sector care and the high cost of private sector care. Therefore, there is an inequality for those on low incomes to receive quality mental health services. In view of this inequality, we wish to create a free online de-stress platform for young people, to help them relieve stress.

In September, we launched HeartlineHK, a free, peer-to-peer, non-judgmental listening service that operates from 7pm to 5am every night, through an online texting platform and a hotline. We hope (1) to address the emotional issues among adolescents; (2) to achieve early intervention and prevention, and (3) to promote emotional wellbeing and awareness on campuses and at schools.

To sustain our service, we will launch a de-stress marketplace on our website that contains products such as candles, essential oils and fidget cubes. Users who wish to browse for products to relieve their stress can find them on our website. Also, 100% of the proceeds acquired by the sale of these products will go into the operation of our listening service.

Does it work? Yes! To date, our volunteers have served over 600 users, with an average rating of 4.2 out of 5 in our post-service survey.

Due to the expensive cost of speech therapy in Hong Kong and limited speech therapy services by the government, many children with speech disorders fail to receive timely diagnosis and therapy. Vera’s vision is to provide these children with services that are accessible, affordable and convenient. We hope children can access the speech diagnosis and therapy they need regardless of their backgrounds.

Vera overcomes the temporal, spatial, and financial barriers faced by children with speech disorders, and also tackles the practical problems faced by speech therapists. This is because Vera is an AI-powered application that makes use of deep learning and big data to provide immediate diagnosis and personalized treatment for speech sound disorders. The app also provides speech therapists with rich resources that help children practice pronunciation, and provides progress reports that track their progress. Furthermore, the stress-free and interactive diagnostic process is facilitated by a speech-enabled chatbot. So, after providing a fast and accurate diagnosis, Vera then analyzes the results to provide personalized and gamified pronunciation exercises to encourage children to actively receive treatment.

Vera will pioneer the use of AI, deep learning and big data to diagnose and treat speech sound disorders in Hong Kong. Also, since a Cantonese database does not exist for our needs, we have initiated the creation of such a database that uses speech samples from Cantonese speakers in Hong Kong (with and without speech disorders).

The pandemic has caused a paradigm shift in Hong Kongers' means of food consumption and patterns of gatherings with family and friends. In the first quarter of 2021 alone, Foodpanda recorded a 60% increase in their number of users. Clearly, there’s an increasing demand for catering services. At the same time, travel bans have increased many locals’ and expats’ interest in tasting and enjoying international cuisines in Hong Kong.

Ensemble! sees these new demands as important opportunities that should be capitalised on to help increase income opportunities for low-income ethnic minorities, many of whom are cooking talents!

Ensemble! is, first, an international cuisine provider that works with chefs from ethnic minorities and low income backgrounds in Hong Kong, set out to meet foodies and food photographers’ demand for authentic, delectable international cuisine that appeal as much to the stomachs as to the eyes, camera lenses and Instagram followers; and second, a cultural educator and social inclusion advocate, who creates opportunities for celebrating and promoting EMs’ food cultures, and giving everyone residing in Hong Kong more chances to interact closely and mingle with people from diverse cultural backgrounds.

By drastically scaling promotional efforts to make these chefs’ amazing culinary skills and personal stories known to more potential customers, we hope to bring more businesses and income to them, to facilitate cultural understanding and social inclusion between different ethnic groups.

Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a common degenerative disease with no cure, but affects 10% of the Hong Kong population. KOA also jeopardises mental wellbeing, as patients with KOA are at a higher risk of dementia and depression. Besides this, it affects mobility for social interaction and self-care, causing isolation and reduced self-efficacy.

Unfortunately, KOA is a complex disease and an accurate prognostic model is lacking. Furthermore, delayed diagnosis means that KOA patients miss the golden period to reverse the progression of the disease and may suffer irreversible damage to their knee joints. Therefore, the current flawed approach leads to poor treatment outcomes for KOA patients and hefty annual health costs of HKD 1.4 billion, both of which are largely preventable.

In response to the foreseeable ageing population, we developed a state-of-the-art AI-based KOA prognostic system for better disease management and a mobile application for patient self-management. The prognostic system will be implemented in different healthcare settings, e.g. our basic version of AI could provide KOA risk assessment and screening at the community healthcare centers with simple checkup procedures.

Our advanced version of KOA prognostic AI system provides detailed analysis on medical images, biochemical markers and electronic health records of the patients at the secondary healthcare. This system not only serves as a triage system for surgical planning, but also generates results to construct optimal and personalised therapeutic plans.

We also develop a mobile application to allow KOA self-management on the palm for the general public. The app provides quick AI-based KOA risk assessment with a short questionnaire and a novel video gait analysis that examine the users’ walking pattern captured by their mobile devices. Following closely to international clinical guidelines, the app also provides personalized health education on exercise and lifestyle modification. Users could also find suitable clinicians for help via our platform.

Care Bear is a mental health early detection service. We match students with mild to moderate levels of depression through a gamified app. Also, our service alleviates symptoms of depression by utilising an accountability peer-support model.

Under COVID-19, mental health problems have become more prevalent - with 50% of students suffering from early symptoms of depression.

We will target the negative triad of:
1.Helplessness
2.Hopelessness
3.Worthlessness

We will detect and alleviate early signs of symptoms of depression by:
1.Transforming negative cognitions into positive thoughts
2.Reinforcing and building habits to break inhibiting cycles

By connecting people going through similar experiences, we can enhance their sense of community and mutual comfort. Also, since we will target secondary school students, we can focus on strength-based approaches that facilitate a process of working on attainable tasks, and more importantly, highlight the preventive nature of the service prior to the onset and diagnosis of mental health disorders.

Throughout the process, we will conduct empirical and vigorous research. The results will help to prevent clinical depression and provide a buffer against the problems of long-waiting time and high therapy costs. Our distinctive hybrid methodology of incorporating technology with a human touch will facilitate the gamification of data collection and lead to providing a highly personalised and authentic experience.

Our package is designed to promote transferrable skills and personal reflection, including perspective-taking, empathy, altruism, grit, self-esteem & efficacy and artistic development. So Bear with Us as we redefine mental health in Hong Kong and beyond!

Coral reefs are at risk, and the ones we have in Hong Kong and the entire Greater Bay Area are no exception. The loss of this living ecosystem means a widespread decline of their associated marine biodiversity including commercial species.

archiREEF provides eco-engineering solutions for ocean ecosystem restoration. We aim to restore degraded ecosystems and mobilize Blue Carbon to achieve carbon neutrality. Our team designed the world’s first artificial reef structure 3D-printed in terracotta, being truly ocean-friendly, and integrates the biomimicry element to enhance coral survivorship and growth. The biomimetic pattern is aesthetically and being functional - with the function of enhancing coral’s survivorship and growth. Our reef tiles have been proven 4 times more effective in keeping the corals alive than the conventional methods.

The tiles were fabricated utilizing a six-axis industrial robot with a 3D clay-extruder attached that is based on a DIW method (direct ink writing). The project developed a unique fabrication method that balanced the tile's algorithmic design with the clay 3D printing strategy and the drying and firing procedures to minimize cracking and deformation. With the beauty of algorithm-based adaptiveness and 3D printer’s versatility, the design can be tweaked for different environments and even organisms like mangroves and oysters.

“We combat climate change by restoring degraded marine ecosystems using advanced eco-engineering technology - 3D printing.”

環保驟看像是件被動的事，但其實可以很主動。重新選擇，你和我都可以Re- Reuse, Reduce, Recycle, Replace, Redefine（減少、重用、再造、代替、再定義）。

我們透過觀察人們的消費模式，以嶄新角度顛覆傳統思維，通過兩大方位把咖啡重新定義。首先，是咖啡廚餘。調查顯示，香港人每年約消耗高達4億杯咖啡，如果把咖啡渣回收再造，便能達至有效減廢。

除此以外，近年數據顯示，每日平均棄置即棄塑膠或發泡膠餐具超過210公噸。一次性的「短命膠」用上數百年都不能降解，可見帶來的「長遠影響」。現在，我們透過應用新科技，賦予咖啡渣這新物料新生命，代替傳統塑膠及解決棄置問題，為未來做好打算。

Re- 更代表著從日常生活中出發，推動環保意識，從咖啡渣開始，跳出框框，利用群眾力量，形成循環，締造無限的環保新概念。

Kin's mission is to accelerate the safety and convenience in personal healthcare at home. Kin Technology was founded in late 2018 by a group with backgrounds in design, engineering and pharmacy, who wanted to improve drug-safety and reduce management inefficiency – so that monitoring, managing and taking medication can be as easy as a click of a button. We offer both B2B2C and B2C solutions in drug management, enabling exceptional service from healthcare providers, while also providing a more convenient way for anyone to continue their treatment at home.

Kin Technology offers an all-round drug management solution platform comprising of both hardware and software. We are developing an at-home pill dispenser, Kindo, that can automatically sort and dispense up to 12 different types of medication at the press of a button. The Kindo also includes a built-in light and sound reminder and the capability to sort medications into the Pillbox for takeaway. Our device simplifies the risky manual sorting and remembering of different dosages into one easy click.

Kindo also allows both users or caregivers to access the medication via the web/mobile app through IoT technology, anytime, anywhere. With just a few clicks, they can track adherence; and also modify or suspend medications. The five rights in drug management: right patient, right medicine, right dosage, right time and right administration is now made possible at home with the Kin platform.

One of the keys to understanding dementia lies in knowing our daily diet. This is because there is a little-known link between dementia and eating disorders. Therefore, if we know the rate of how our bodies burn fat and the overall energy balance, we will have a better chance of early detection and early treatment of dementia.

The solution lies in sensing and knowing the amount of ketone bodies in our breath. Our semiconductor ketone gas sensor provides a ketone sensing capability in the range of parts per billion, which is over 1000X more sensitive than any currently available sensors.

The main problem with sufferers with early stage dementia is that they act as though they can handle all daily tasks independently. But then they begin to forget to eat. Caregivers might assume that people with minor signs of dementia simply have a poor memory, without considering the possibility of compromised ability to complete daily tasks such as eating and cooking.

Therefore, caregivers often neglect a dementia patient’s eating disorder until it has a serious health impact, such as a drastic decrease in body weight. Drastic decreases in body weight can then pose problems for health professionals to treat dementia patients with proper dosage of medication.

There are no existing products on the market that are tailored for eating disorder detection. However, King’s Phase Technologies is here to fill the gap make a change with our sensor “In The Know”.

InnoSpire Technology Limited is a social enterprise dedicated to using technology to provide visual assistance for elderly and visually impaired people. (We are also an incubatee under the Incu-App programme of Hong Kong Science and Technology Park.) Currently, we are developing the FIRST smart glasses in the world that can provide human+AI visual support to visually impaired people/elderly.

Firstly, for our smart glasses, an elderly or visually impaired user can wear them like normal eyeglasses, and our backend staff combined with AI can see things from the viewpoint of the user and provide instant support.

For our second main product is a mobile app that connects visually impaired people and elderly people to volunteers. When the visually impaired person needs help, they can make a call and a group of volunteers will receive call notifications. Then, the first volunteer who takes the call will be connected to the visually impaired user and can provide real-time video call support to the users in need.

By using our smart glasses or mobile app, the user can be supported by backend staff and or volunteers. Furthermore, by providing visual assistance to users in their daily lives, it will improve social inclusion and their standard of living.

As there is a growing population of people who regularly take drugs, with the elderly commonly taking 5 or more drugs at the same time (known as polypharmacy), drug adherence and compliance have become greatly concerning issues. Unfortunately, current medication labels are often too wordy for patients to read, use small fonts, and only written in Chinese or English. Therefore, this neglects the needs of those who are less able to see, illiterate, or unable to read Chinese or English. As a result, the elderly and ethnic minority groups have difficulty reading and understanding medication and dosage instructions clearly.

The failure to understand medication labels can lead to devastating consequences. People’s health may be affected by not achieving the optimal usage of drugs or inducing additional medical burden such as causing adverse drug reactions and prolonging hospitalisation.

DrugIconist aims to create visual icons for common medical instructions and warnings in different languages, including Chinese, English, Urdu and more. Our icons make medication instructions easier to read and will reduce the difficulty in explaining medication warnings. This will go a long way towards increasing safety and accuracy in medication use. Also, we offer consultancy services for drug label implementation and provide promotional materials to facilitate the use and explanation of our icons. We hope that through designing drug icons, people can know more about drug labels and take the right amount of medication, at the right time and in the right manner.

眾所周知，人口老化為本港其中一個棘手的社會問題。預計到達2036年時，每三個人便有一個為長者。長者除了要同時面對心理健康和貧窮問題外，亦要面對世代間存在的矛盾和代溝。

為此，我們建立了「呀周金三角（Chow’ s Golden Triangle）」。作為一間社會製作公司（Social Production House），我們不但自家製作各類影片，亦為不同機構提供服務。此外我們建立了首個跨代YouTuber課程「MiniTuber」。課程會聘請長者教授各類課程，例如教授青少年及其他長者拍攝影片，促進彼此了解。影片和資訊最終會在自家平台「呀周電視ChowTV」及社交媒體上發佈，達至社會教育（Social Education）的目的。

With Covid-19, all markets have been severely affected. The craft brewing industry, defined by innovation, has come to a standstill. Simultaneously, food wastage is rising due to a lack of sales. Breer is the one solution that solves both problems! We are a food upcycling start-up that uses surplus leftover bread from bakeries to brew premium craft beer.

Strongly believing in the motto that waste is not waste until you waste it, our initiative began when we learnt that all unsold bread in bakeries gets thrown away after closing. Shocked by the amount of food wastage, we decided to make a difference. In Hong Kong alone, 3600 tonnes of food is wasted every day. So, the experience of building a social enterprise that has a direct and tangible impact on solving a problem is very empowering. We have successfully developed the pilot batch ‘Responsibly’ and we got the opportunity to closely collaborate on getting the flavour profiles right, along with communicating our brand mission by designing a distinctive customer experience. After making various iterations, we are now ready with our first product – which we can’t wait to introduce to the market very soon!

This has only been made possible with the combined efforts of our team members, all of whom have a very unique personal background. Be it our academic or professional experiences, each of us lent a different perspective in terms of developing the venture, and that had made it a very enriching experience. This collaboration is a testament to the potential of today’s youth in making an impact.

Visually impaired people, especially those of higher education and ability, do not want to be disconnected from the outside world or left behind. They want to live normal day to day lives as other people do, but need assistance from time to time. For example, they want to know whether the color of their shirt matches their jacket, identify the verification code on the computer screen when they need to sign in a webpage, or read the expiration date on food packages when they shop in supermarkets. In many circumstances, there is no one nearby to offer them help. They need help from people who are willing and available to support them.

There are many passionate people who want to be involved in volunteer activities, but they might not have enough time to do so. Conventional volunteer work requires people to devote half or even a whole day at a designated time and venue. As a result, these activities are not flexible. If there is a way that volunteers can help people at any time and place when they are available, it would make the activity much easier to join.

WeVoice+ aims to build a worldwide community consisting of volunteers and the visually impaired. In this project, a mobile app will be developed to allow visually impaired users to take pictures and send it to a group of volunteers, where available volunteers can describe the picture back to the user via voice message.

WeDerm provides integrated care for eczema patients: personalized, comprehensive, and guided with psychosocial support.

In June 2018, former CUHK nursing student, 23-year-old Pang Ching-yu, killed her parents and herself on Father’s Day. Her severe eczema and deep-rooted stress were the leading factors of the tragedy. Eczema is a painful skin condition which cascades from physical wounds to chronic mental stress. It affects 300 million people globally and Hong Kong is an infamous hotspot.

Today’s medical paradigm for eczema is problematic:

1. Generic intervention leads to ineffective treatment
2. Acute care mismatched for chronic conditions
3. Lack of psychosocial support and health guidance

As a team of students with decades of experience suffering from eczema, we know best what it means to live each day to the fullest – and we want to bring this to everyone in the world. Our integrated care program combines first-hand patient experiences, professional evidence-based medicine, and a comprehensive network in medicine, pharmacology, psychotherapy, and nutrition.

Since no case is the same, WeDerm offers a comprehensive diagnosis for eczema, generating a multifactorial patient profile for personalized treatment. To drive sustained action, peer engagement is integrated for effective long-term recovery, highlighting that health is not merely the absence of disease, but a sustained and positive state of physical and psychosocial wellbeing.

Our motto naturally: for patients, by patients.

年紀漸長，隨之而來的是不同的老人病。最為人所知的，莫過於認知障礙症。

有調查顯示，目前全球有約4800萬名患者，每三秒就會多一個人患上這個病。在香港，65歲以上的長者中，每100人便有5至8個人患有認知障礙症，而他們在社區內走失的情況亦令人擔憂。根據調查顯示，確診認知障礙症的長者走失率達三成以上。

為了令長者走失後，可以較容易被尋回，我們團隊從長者的「愛杖」入手，研製出全球首款智能拐杖外掛裝置 「Walkpner」。只要套上裝置，便能將一支普通柺杖升級成為智能枴杖。Walkpner擁有跌倒警報，來電通報及定位追蹤功能，更可太陽能充電，方便和保障老人家之餘，家人及看護者亦可更為放心。

To make healthcare better and safer for all, UVify aims to safeguard against cross-contamination of medical tools and devices. Developed through design thinking, we are solving a real-world issue at the core of a global problem. Leveraging simple technology compatible with the existing healthcare ecosystem, we are a medical device start-up that began with a simple mission: engineering, optimising, and transforming healthcare tools at the crux of it all: lowering incidences of infection and safeguarding devices for protection.

Infectious diseases, especially those which are hospital-acquired, are an alarming global problem threatening population health and healthcare systems. These problems lead to longer waiting times and higher hospital occupation rates.  Stethoscopes used by doctors are a major source of pathogen transmission. They are often contaminated and teaming with infectious bacteria. Shockingly, contamination risks increase exponentially after each clinic visit and there are also no universal prescription guidelines for sanitising stethoscopes – except through labourious manual cleaning with alcohol swabs.

Therefore, we have designed an automatic and portable UV-C light-based disinfection device for the medical staff to actively cleanse stethoscope diaphragms.

Our safe and flexible design features:

1. Compatibility with all dimensions of stethoscopes
2. Non-disruptive mechanical System for smooth rollout of diaphragm
3. Non-cytotoxic skin-friendly and non-carcinogenic – unlike other UV lights
4. Multi-pathogen inactivation of H1N1, MRSA, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterococcus faecalis

Summer Production是一間主要為15-24歲的青少年提供拍攝培訓的社企。

我們希望可以複製更多的Summer，以一個青年攝影團隊，幫助更多雙待青年尋找屬於他們的人生夢想和方向。

可能大家會問，Who is Summer? 其實Summer曾經是一個失業失學的雙待青年，機緣巧合之下，她進入社企成為一個攝影學徒，攝影從此成為她的興趣，三年後學有所成，成為一名專業攝影師。

Summer從受助者轉化為施助者，希望以她的經驗，舉辦拍攝教學班裝備青少年，讓他們製作屬於他們的作品，協助雙待青年尋找方向。

項目已經與超過15個機構及學校合作，指導參加者拍攝超過30條反思生命的影片，超過七成學員願意繼續參加有關課程。

此項目的成功，令我們想繼續「以生命影響生命」，由Summer出發服務另一群體——兒童之家的宿生。

Elderly people in Hong Kong are facing social isolation and increasing loneliness, which is an important Risk Factor (RF) for a great many non-communicable diseases (NCD), such as cancer, dementia, stroke, cardiovascular disease, diabetes.  The lack or delay of mental health treatment can have many negative effects on individuals suffering from mental illnesses.

With the integration of AI, our SMART app (Sustainable, Memorable, Affordable, Real-time Therapist) can provide personalized recommendations based on a patient’s preferences and habits. Patients can access user-friendly, evidence-based tools and different treatment methods. Also, when the assessment result approaches predefined cut-off degrees, they will receive timely automatic referrals to registered psychologists.

Furthermore, our AI-backed chatbot enables speedy diagnosis of a patient’s condition and assesses risk levels, thereby supporting health professionals or users to administer effective and efficient treatment protocols.

The goal of SMART is to provide more mental health resources for those in need. The intention is not to replace human therapists, but to divert more of the mental health professional’s time to the treatment of mental illness. The shortage of mental health professionals in Hong Kong has made it difficult for those suffering from a mental illness to receive the treatment they need. Approximately 80% of the HK elderly population live in situations without enough money, time, or capability to obtain professional mental health treatment. SMART is an example of how Big Data and AI technology application in the mental health industry can have a significant impact on community healthcare accessibility.

我們相信 every meal is meaningful (每一餐都是有意義的)。 進食並不僅是生理需求，更是人生樂趣的重要一環。然而，很多長者及吞嚥困難的患者只能進食不美觀的糊餐，或會出現情緒低落、食慾下降、營養不良等狀況。所謂「家有一老，如有一寶」，作為子孫以及照顧者，我們極為重視家中長者的飲食質素，希望長者能享用自己喜歡的食物，愉快地進食及。

在人口急速老化的香港，推動樂齡科技及相關產品服務的發展，正是關愛長者、關注未來的必要準備。有見及此，我們成立Mealingful，希望使精緻軟餐普及至社會各階層，盡量還原菜式原貌及味道，讓長者及吞嚥困難的患者在進食每一餐時，不僅能夠攝取日常所須的營養，同時亦可感受到美食帶來的喜悅和滿足。這就是我們所相信的「有意義的每一餐」。

ZOOMIN 是個專門為源頭減廢而設的手機應用程式，一方面以遊戲模式呈現用戶消費習慣， 同時在程式內獎勵實踐可持續消費模式的用戶。ZOOMIN 一字有雙重意思。「ZOO」代表生物多樣性，而「MIN」代表廢物最少化。這個程式的名稱表達了我們想為社會帶來正面改變的決心及熱誠。

政府在 20 年前推出「藍廢紙、黃鋁罐、啡膠樽」的口號令回收廢物變得街知巷問。惟時至 2018年，即使我們希望回收更多其他類型的廢物，但由於地理空間及回收廢物種類所限，單靠回收箱或其他回收設施已經不能有效減廢。減廢要長遠見效的，就必須落實「源頭減廢」，ZOOMIN 以數碼應用程式，並以各類獎賞，鼓勵消費者採取環保購物。我們堅信，ZOOMIN 將會是我們的未來。

When facing mental issues, we understand it can be difficult to pour your heart out to others. In fact, when encountering adversities and mental issues, only 1% teenagers are willing to express themselves.

“Heart to Heart” is a meaningful lifestyle brand that connects people who are aware of mental wellbeing and the opportunities for them to take the actual step to care about others’ mental health. It is a series of gifts designed by people who have battled through mental health issues.

We start the conversation by admitting and expressing our own mental state. With our product, we encourage people to talk about their mental health, to take the initiative to care about others, and to be part of us to drive a positive and powerful change to society. We aim to overcome the stigma and misunderstanding against mental illness.

Heart to Heart is a brand of products, but we also aim to become a mobilizer in mental health advocacy. We aspire to combat the current misunderstanding about mental wellbeing by providing a true understanding through our online and offline campaigns.

We understand that mental issues are always a taboo that is so hard to admit and discuss. However, at the same time, we understand you care about mental wellbeing as much as we do. We stand with you in the face of negative thoughts. Join us and from the bottom of your heart tell others. Let’s TALK about mental health!

GrinBean is a profit-sharing ecosystem built around clean recycling. Our ecosystem links citizens, property developers and management companies, recyclers, and retailers. We aim to promote recycling, and provide reliable technologies that enable an accurate sorting of recyclables and contamination control at the point of disposal, as a solution to the low recycling rate and low recovery rate in Hong Kong.

The GrinBean ecosystem consists of recycling machines powered by artificial intelligence. We apply the concept of reverse vending to incentivize people to recycle through our interactive mobile application. Our pioneering recycling solution has the potential to be applied citywide, as an effective method of recyclable collection and to encourage green living. This can transform Hong Kong into a smart city in the aspect of waste management and recycling.

Free Periods HK is the only group in Hong Kong providing support to low-income women through the supply of free sustainable menstrual products. The group is supported by experienced individuals from Happeriod, MenstruAction, MissMaMa and M Cup M Stuff, 4 groups that highlight the issue of menstrual stigma in Hong Kong since as early as 2014.

We realise that in Hong Kong, there are menstruators (especially low-income groups) who lack menstrual health knowledge. As a result, in order to save money, they sacrifice the quality of the menstrual products they use or even intentionally reduce the frequency of changing for clean menstrual products. Unfortunately, using menstrual products beyond the suggested time of use can lead to issues with menstrual hygiene and various potential health threats.

Free Periods HK advocates a unique Buy 1 Give 1 distribution model of free sustainable menstrual products. We also collect public donations of money and menstrual products, organise menstrual education workshops and train menstrual education ambassadors. Through connecting menstruators from different social backgrounds and supplying free menstrual products to those in need, we set out to relieve the mental, physical and financial burdens on low-income groups caused by period poverty and raise public awareness on period poverty.

DOSHA Woodcraft is a local wood upcycling company. Our team includes 5 product designers and we will offer different types of furniture and home products for customers.

Our story begins with an upcycling project after the Typhoon Mangkhut (颱風山竹). DOSHA members tried to collect and produce new products with disposed wood. This experience proved that wood disposal can provide the raw material for production. Unfortunately, the wood recycling rate in Hong Kong is less than 1%. However, disposed wood can be the raw material for furniture making, thus reducing the demand for cutting down more trees.

Currently, the public has an understanding of green life and carbon footprint. At the same time, Hong Kong is a high-density city and everyone needs to optimize the use of the floor space in their home. Therefore, by designing "Lego Furniture", a series of DIY concept wood furniture, customers can meet this need by offering specific units for customers to create the stylish furniture of their wishes.

Flexible, eco-friendly, stylish and meaningful furniture is a great idea for people and nature. All wood has their own life and own experience, and everyone can save wood from being disposed into landfills.

From a broader perspective, DOSHA Woodcraft’s aims to save trees and increase the wood recycling rate in Hong Kong. At the same time, we hope our products will lead users to share the story behind the furniture and let our lives influence thinking and save trees.

各大小運動比賽中不難見到市民比賽受傷的個案，而傷患往往影響著他們的生活。比賽後的調養照護是每項運動比賽中不可或缺的一部分。然而，大眾市民沒有專業運動員團隊的隊醫照顧，經常疏忽相關的準備和復康處理。因此，我們中醫運動隊醫由中醫師，其他專業人士及視障按摩師組成，以成為廣大市民的中醫隊醫為宗旨，將中醫學知識套用於運動科學範疇，讓市民於運動後接受中醫護理，增加市民對傷患處理及保健身體的認知，促進康復，減低市民運動後受傷加劇的機會。視障人士亦可藉此計劃得到就業機會，發揮所長，同時以合理價格向公眾提供優質服務，達到利己利人的目的，讓社會大眾對視障人士的工作能力增加了解，宣揚平等。

WeCareBill 是一個開放的數據庫，供患者根據預算選擇醫療服務。它減少了患者因成本不確定性而對私有化的恐懼：這個簡單的步驟將重新安排 3-5% 的公共患者私有化，為有需要和緊急的患者留下更多資源。

在選擇醫療服務之前，提前了解費用是患者的基本權利。然而，由於醫務委員會實施的行為準則，醫生不得公佈手術價格，導致某些極端情況下手術費用成倍數變化。因此，大多數香港患者必須支付諮詢費用才能獲得價格估算 - 不像其他國家有統一定價或明確的價目表。

因此，很大一部分對價格敏感、沒有保險的老年人選擇不使用私人服務，即使他們有能力這樣做。這給我們的公共衛生系統帶來了負擔，導致公立醫院的輪候時間變長，直接影響我們的健康。這些不幸的結果也與保柏 2018 年的報告結果相呼應：數據透明度是提高香港醫療體係可持續性的關鍵。

我們帶來的三個社會影響是：

• 更好的健康結果：使患者能夠根據價格信息做出更明智、更快速的決策

• 公立醫院輪候時間更短： 為有需要的人提供更多公共資源

• 更高的開支節省： 來自香港更好地利用私家醫院和醫療保險。

Before I tell you about our product, I would like to ask if any of you have visually impaired friends? The answer is probably ‘no’. And for visually impaired people, can you guess how many of their friends are sighted? You might guess ‘none’ or just one or two and you would be right.

Unfortunately, while we have around 40 friends throughout our life, the visually impaired may only have around 10.

Hopefully, you can now imagine just how much our Visual abilities can enhance or limit our social life. It is also important to note that almost 80% of what we have learnt is acquired through vision. So, you can easily see how difficult it is for the visually impaired to interact with sighted people. But, don’t we all deserve a social life? Someone should do something to change the situation!

That’s why we have developed Animomo – an interactive story telling app with physical toys, that helps visually impaired young children to learn social skills. Unlike existing toys in the market, visual ability won’t be a competitive necessity to enjoy the game. Children can role play animals in an adventure story and make decisions at key turning points in the story. With Animomo, all children can play together and build the necessary social skills for a fulfilling life!

在現今的社會，即使是有導盲犬的幫助引導視障人士，但他們在探索社區方面仍存在困難。 目前使用導盲犬作引導仍存在許多限制。

1）導盲犬需要接受培訓才能進入新的地方。

2）當視障者失去方向時，他們需要尋求周圍環境的幫助，而不是導盲犬。 另一方面，以現時的情況，視障人士與移動設備通信的能力非常有限，要自行到達一個指定位置的地方，亦有困難。

我們提出了一種移動輔助解決方案來指導視障人士。 透過使用計算機視覺的移動設備在機器學習的幫助下可以指示視障人士(及導盲犬)正確的路徑以及了解周圍環境和前方事物。通過我們所提出的解決方案，視障者可以更容易到達指定位置，增強他們的獨立性以及自行在社區導航方面的能力。

Void 提供負擔得起且可持續的 心理健康服務。但是，我們的不同之處在於多功能自助移動應用程序。這使得Void 可以隨時隨地提供心理健康服務——甚至在15分鐘內！

Void 通過三個主要功能緩解壓力：改善睡眠質量、緩解壓力和專注訓練。我們的服務基於冥想、催眠和心理治療的概念。

Void 提供了三個主要功能：

1. 放鬆遊戲：基於太極中的“極”概念，遊戲引導用戶達到平靜。它具有4（吸氣）- 6（保持）- 6（呼氣）的呼吸節奏，已被證明可以讓人們達到放鬆狀態。此外，借助 3D 觸控技術，放鬆遊戲可以進行壓力優化。然後，用戶可以在聽到催眠錄音之前達到放鬆狀態。

2. 智能腕帶：這將動覺錨定與我們的音頻程序相結合，以達到最佳效果。它測量身體狀況數據（例如心跳和睡眠質量），然後用戶可以使用這些數據來監控他們的進步和改善。

3. 催眠錄音：手環記錄身體狀態數據（如心跳、力度、彈指運動時長）後，通過自適應模型自動調整每個用戶的催眠錄音，以匹配其具體需求。

我們以負擔得起且可持續的 心理健康服務填補了巨大的空白。隨時隨地- 甚至在15分鐘內！

Nature Bathing addresses the problem of stress faced by secondary students in Hong Kong. The surging number of youth suicide and students suffering from severe stress reflects a serious social issue. Unfortunately, stress is not well-managed and schools often lack the time and manpower to help students cope.

By engaging students in outdoor workshops and experiences, Nature Bathing offers a solution to help them relieve stress and enhance their stress management skills. Inspired by the Flow Learning ^TM model and experiential learning through nature, these activities provide immediate stress relief and stress management skills. As students participate in outdoor workshops, day camps and overnight camps, they can establish a new network of friends – friends they can connect with before a crisis occurs. It is also expected that students are more likely to continue to actively engage in nature in the long run, as a way to control their stress.

From a broader perspective, the project offers a solution for schools to alleviate stress by engaging students with nature. The promotion of Nature Bathing programs will also increase social awareness towards youth stress and the benefits of nature for stress relief and mental well-being.

Nature Bathing intends to cooperate with strategic partners like Gaia Association, Principal Chan Free Tutorial World, Social Entrepreneurship and School Education (SENSE), Tithe Ethical Consumption and different corporates. We hope to connect around 150 secondary schools and 24,000 secondary students with our network, and ultimately create a change in our leaders of tomorrow.

Seventy million people in the world use sign language as their first language, with an estimate of up to 30 million in China alone. However, the deaf and mute population lack the means to communicate with non-sign language speakers in daily life, resulting in challenges in integral parts of life such as securing employment and social interactions.

What if we could develop a device to give them a voice to speak?
Gense is developing a real-time sign language to voice translator wristbands and smartwatches. By simply putting on two wristbands, users will be able to speak in sign language as normal and communicate with anyone through a wearable speaker.

How does Gense Labs technology work?
As your hand moves, the inner biological tissues including muscle groups, tenders of your wrist changes with different hand gestures. Gense wristbands contain multiple electrodes that contact your skin around the wrist. Through procedural stimulation and a back-projection process, a bio-signal web can be constructed to form a live dynamic bio-image. Gense detects hand gestures through bio-image reconstruction and recognition with machine learning algorithms.

Who are Gense Labs?
The technology is developed by a team of five entrepreneurs with academic backgrounds from Cambridge, Stanford, HKU and HKUST. The team consists of two Ph.Ds in bio-medical engineering specializing in human imaging, an electronics expert with experience working in Huawei, a software engineer in cloud computing and machine learning, and a dedicated entrepreneur.

Problem
Around 1.5 billion people worldwide are suffering from chronic pain and this imposes tremendous costs on patients, employers, and the health care system. People suffering from chronic pain are less able to exercise properly, to sleep normally or to master their daily life successfully. It leads to a vicious cycle of depression, helplessness, guilt, and increased preoccupation with pain and created multitude of negative behavioral responses like restricted activity, sleep deprivation, and social withdrawal. In Hong Kong, it is estimated that 35% of adults suffer from chronic pain and the highest prevalence are those in the lower income groups with monthly income below HK$ 15,000. Current treatments for chronic pain are simply ineffective (The Lancet) and painkillers proved to potentially cause toxicity, gastrointestinal bleeding, and renal failure.

Solution
With 5 years’ experience in practicing origin point medicine (OPM), Body Activation was developed to automate the proven OPM acupoint massage to relieve body pain using an effective, non-invasive and drug-free therapy. Body Activation is a service machine located in publicly accessible places using the affordable pay-per-use vending concept to provide hassle-free, easy and fast therapy to relieve body pain for users in private. All elderly people will get a special discount on their Octopus card to relieve pain and improve quality of life. As the main concern for a public machine is hygiene, the system will be maintained by elderly employees, who will also be Body Activation users. When your body feels good, so does your mind. Therefore, pain sufferers, especially the elderly, will be relieved of their pain and regain their dignity to continue doing what they like in life. Body Activation, the best way for you to relieve body pain.

In Hong Kong, there are over 300,000 secondary students. However, in order to earn better grades in public exams, over 90% of them go to tutorial classes every day after school.

The tutorial industry has emerged since the 1990s. Unfortunately, in these 20 years, tutorial centers with ever increasing class sizes and tuition fees have done little to improve students’ learning effectiveness and there are no alternatives in the market.

That’s why we founded AfterSchool, an online learning community designed for Hong Kong secondary students. Our mission is to create a new learning system that provides students with a “Ten Times More Effective & Ten Times Cheaper” learning experience.

By uniquely combining learning science, gamification and social elements, we provide students with a highly personalised, flexible, effective and interactive learning experience at just 40% of the market tuition fee. Our community also allows students to learn at their own pace, interact with other students and discuss problems in real time.

AfterSchool will also create a channel for qualified tutors to publish courses and build a passive income stream.

All they need to do is to produce high quality learning materials. AfterSchool will provide the rest, including marketing, packaging and sales. Revenue will be split between tutors and AfterSchool.

Education is essential. AfterSchool creates a smarter learning ecosystem with unlimited possibilities for our future generation.

Sudden Unexpected Infant Deaths (SUID) causes over 15,000 deaths each year – the major causes being suffocation and strangulation. These cases are often associated with incorrect sleeping positions where the babies are found with their faces covered by a blanket or even found dead face down in the bedding.

Current prevention measures are basic. Parents need to wake up frequently through the night to check if their baby is breathing normally. However, as a result of frequent checking, over two thirds of parents report that they regularly lose 3 hours of sleep because of the stress and worries. However, we aim to provide a solution to relieve the pressure on parents and allow them to sleep better.

Peacify is an innovative wearable for babies. Our device brings medical grade sensing technologies into every household through an affordable and adorable baby sock. It is equipped with the most advanced biomedical sensors and algorithms to monitor a baby’s vital signs and then transmit the data to smart devices. By connecting to an app, parents or medical professionals can monitor a baby's heart rate, blood oxygen level, skin temperature and sleep habits at a glance. The device can also alert parents to abnormalities and rolling over.

Being a monitoring tool rather than a medical or diagnostic device, Peacify will alert parents to potential health-related danger signs so that they can take preemptive actions to safeguard their child.

Market Opportunity

Coins have been in circulation since 1863 in Hong Kong. While making transactions more convenient, coins have caused some problems and inconvenience. For example, coins are not easy to be paid out after the public receive change in a transaction, since many retailers do not accept smaller bills and the denomination of coins vary. Also, coins are heavy and easy to lose. As a result, we store a
large amount of coins at home. In addition, retailers also need a store of coins for change. Unfortunately, over the past five years, this required the government to produce more than HK$30 billion worth of coins.

Our Solution

HEYCOINS is a chain kiosk that tackles the hassle and inconvenience created by the use of physical coins. HEYCOINS Kiosk collects coins from the public and then converts them into digital currency, including e-wallets recharge, transportation/cash cards top-up, e-cash coupons purchase and charitable donations.

HEYCOINS will bring direct economic benefits and positive social impacts by recycling coins and removing coins from unwanted circulation. Also, by controlling the return of the stored coins back into circulation, HEYCOINS will greatly reduce the massive cost of manufacturing coins for future use.

HEYCOINS is positioning itself to be the gateway to FinTech for the masses. Our B2B2C business model takes the advantage of coins for attracting people to continually use our product and service. We will accumulate HEYCOINS users, build brand trust and build greater acceptance of FinTech solutions like e-wallets/cross-border settlements.

Work,Sheet. aims to promote the concept of Permaculture and putting the whole system into daily life. We cooperate with St. James Settlement (NGO) and sheltered workshops to collect food waste with HK local features in the community. We use 100% biodegradable ingredients and sustainable procedures from start to end. We have also developed a new innovative Fiber-material, share profits from
the goods sold as a return to reward workers and introduced a whole system to serve the community.

After a series of experiments and testing, we successfully developed an efficient system for processing local food waste into commercially viable products (Fiber-Material: 2D.FiberSheet, 3D.FiberBlock). Our Fiber-Material can be used in industrial manufacturing as well as custom-made production. The material can be used as a semi-final material to produce daily products, range from large objects like furniture, lighting and installations, to small products like stationery, containers, utensils and any paper product. We specifically chose food waste that is rich in HK local characteristics, which made our Fiber material more representative of Hong Kong. At present stage we focus on 1. tea leaves from tea-houses; 2. fruit from local fruit markets; 3. plants from The Flower Market at
Prince Edward; 4. Chinese medicine herbs from Chinese pharmacies.

Besides the character of the material supplier, Work,Sheet. also builds social responsibility through educating the public on the concept of permaculture by holding workshops and exhibitions; as well as producing designer products and services, which will be targeted mainly at the corporate sector. With our current corporate work experience and up-coming projects, we have the confidence to launch our unique HK material to the global market in the near future.

UNlimited Institute (UNi) is a social business established in April 2014. We design experiential learning programs for university students in Hong Kong and Southeast Asian countries. Our programs include elements of international cultural experience and community engagement. With our visions “Learning without Borders, Travel beyond Limits”, we create unique cultural exposure and understanding, and also theme-based problem-solving training for students.

Our featured program is the formal credit-bearing program entitled the Capstone Program, in which we have partnered with the University of Hong Kong (HKU) and College of International Education of Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU CIE), offering overseas study program for Food and Nutritional Science students from HKU and HKBU CIE. Our participants from HKU are also exclusively subsidized by the Gallant Ho Experiential Learning Centre (GHELC) of HKU.

This professional program is divided into three phases:

STOP HIDING!

START TALKING!

How do you tackle a hidden problem? The problem is the sexual health of Hong Kong’s youth. After all, shouldn’t we all be concerned about the consequences of being ill informed? These range from unexpected pregnancies, sexually transmitted infections and discrimination against sexual minorities.

The current generation of young people have grown up with sexually explicit material being freely available on the Internet. In addition, the trend is that they are becoming sexually active at a younger age. So what are we to do?

Sticky Rice Love aims to develop a friendly community in Hong Kong. A community that is receptive to discussions on sexuality and then to empower young people with the knowledge to make responsible informed choices. Fortunately, Sticky Rice Love is gaining attention. Since our launch, we have received strong support – around 4,500 Facebook fans and around 20 reports in the media.

Our online platform has two main components: an online journal and an online forum for young people to ask questions anonymously. After we receive questions, our team of trained volunteers and sex therapists reply with practical answers. The topics we cover are sex and gender, how to accept oneself, communication and romance in relationships. In addition, we provide educational activities for schools, parents and the public. This online platform also allows businesses to advertise their products to the youth market and fees are charged for providing workshops.

Sticky Rice Love – we’re all about sex!

Giving elderly people and abandoned dogs a new lease on life

Senior CID equips Hong Kong’s elderly with pet sitting, training and grooming skills through working with abandoned dogs. Our programme empowers senior citizens to generate a stable income while helping numerous canine lives.

Our population is greying fast. By 2035, one in 3.2 people will be aged 65 or above. Currently, one third of the elderly live in poverty. Some of them are physically capable and should be given the chance to work. By matching their resources with the needs of abandoned dogs, Senior CID can solve three of society’s problems: 1) ageing population; 2) abandoned dogs; and 3) high demand for affordable pet services.

We collaborate with expert trainers who teach our elderly members to provide quality pet services. The elderly will learn to care for, train and groom through working with abandoned dogs at our partner shelter. They will keep the dogs healthy, happy and attractive, increasing their chances of finding a new home. Once the elderly complete their training, we will offer their services at below market prices. Our elderly will benefit from having a flexible, fun and rewarding work schedule. Pet owners can also enjoy cheaper services while knowing that their money spent are for the benefit of the elderly and abandoned dogs.

Our vision lies further. To broaden our network and impact in a sustainable model, experienced members will become trainers themselves to empower not only other elderly, but also other groups of people in need.
