PolyU, represented by the Center for Economic Sustainability and Entrepreneurial Finance (CESEF) of the School of Accounting and Finance (AF), signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Ernst & Young Advisory Services Limited (EY) on 25 March 2024 to strengthen the existing collaboration toward the shared goal of making headway for developments in ESG and beyond.
Following the conducive collaboration since 2021, the joint efforts between PolyU and EY have realised tremendous collaborative benefits of supporting the development of high-quality economic and ESG developments, enriching not just the two organisations but also bringing about the associated benefits to Hong Kong collectively. With the renewal of the MoU, PolyU and EY aim to further explore opportunities between industry and academia, creating greater synergy and prospects in the ESG landscape.
According to this MoU, EY will continue to provide support and guidance to eligible PolyU students. ESG leadership talks and other training opportunities will be organised to facilitate knowledge sharing. EY and PolyU will also endeavour to promote ESG development in Hong Kong and foster academia-industry collaboration to advocate ESG and sustainability best practices. This MoU acts as a catalyst for change and empowerment, thus bringing about positive impact in the world and shaping the leaders of tomorrow.
