Hong Kong Youth Entrepreneurship Program
Empowering Hong Kong students aged 11-18 to think like entrepreneurs, solve real problems, and build the skills that matter. From ideation workshops to real-company internships. Delivered across 18+ schools with 90+ local mentors.
Why Entrepreneurship Matters in Hong Kong
Hong Kong is a global financial and innovation hub. Yet many young Hongkongers complete their education without building anything real, pitching an idea, or solving a problem outside the classroom.
The job market is changing fast. By 2030, the skills employers value most will be creativity, problem-solving, adaptability, and entrepreneurial thinking. These are not taught in textbooks. They are learned by doing.
Young Founders School brings entrepreneurship education to students across Hong Kong through hands-on programs that mirror real startup culture. Students do not just learn about entrepreneurship. They practice it.
