Thoughts from CEOs & Fellows

"We have also learned a lot from your fellows... We can then be able to anticipate the thinking of our future customers and prospective HK leaders. Thank you for your leadership in this worthwhile project."

Raymond Kwok

Chairman & Managing Director of Sun Hung Kai Properties

Personally, the Melo journey has been an incredible experience of reverse-mentoring. It was enlightening to connect with and learn from young talents as they embarked on their first corporate endeavors through this program!

Randy Lai

CEO of McDonald's Hong Kong

I am deeply grateful that numerous CEOs generously offer a splendid opportunity for the forthcoming generation.

Hugo Leung

Year 2, Environmental Management & Technology, HKUST, Class of 2023 Fellow

I am proud to have coached these young individuals, who are shaping a brighter future for our community, and witnessed their growth firsthand.

Michael Moriarty

Managing Director of HK Disneyland Resort

It has been an inspirational and fruitful journey to work on this meaningful youth empowerment project…..through brainstorming ideas to now have a well tested consumer centric product with the right pricing, fun content and optimum operation support.

Kenny Sham

General Manager of Klook, Hong Kong & Macau

The most impressive sharing to me would be from Randy, the CEO of McDonald’s HK, in which she has given Melo fellows chances to speak up and express societal concerns.

Lily Lee

Year 2, Biotechnology and Business, HKUST, Class of 2021 Fellow

"Really well organised conference. Superb contents, articulate speakers, fantastic venue, noble aim. Well done. Congratulations."

John Tsang

Former Financial Secretary of HKSAR; Founder of Esperanza

"We are delighted to support Project Melo as the first social enterprise UBS Optimus Foundation is partnering with in the region. The program also strongly supports two of our thematic priority areas: empowering children and young people through education and secondly, combating climate change and protecting the environment."

Ming Geng

Head of Social Impact and Philanthropy at UBS for Greater China
