Chong Chan Yau and Ada Ho

The Government, the business community, and the public have been promoting the development of social enterprises (SEs) for a decade, and the ethos of solving social problems through entrepreneurship has also gradually taken shape. Ada HO, business elite, once set up a social enterprise sweater factory, so as to revive the textile industry in Hong Kong, and she has also established Internet platforms in recent years to promote the SE culture; CHONG Chan-yau, the anti-poverty vanguard, founded “Dialogue in the Dark” which employs a 2-hour experience in darkness as his enterprise product. Although their experiences and personalities are disparate, the two somehow cross path on the road towards social justice. In the programme, the two entrepreneurs will enter into an intergenerational dialogue to share their episodes of memories in setting up businesses with the disadvantaged groups. We will also interview two social enterprise staff who have been to Laos and Kunming to see how they achieve their vision of “keeping a foothold in Hong Kong while making international contribution.”
