05 Since its establishment in 2000, the HKU SPACE Community College (“the College”) has left an indelible mark on Hong Kong's higher education history. It has paved the way for HKDSE graduates to pursue advanced studies and for tens of thousands of students to realise their university aspirations. The 23rd Graduation Ceremony of the College took place on 30 October 2024 at the Queen Elizabeth Stadium. The event was presided by Professor William K.M. Lee, Director of HKU SPACE. Professor John Mark Carroll, Department of History, The University of Hong Kong, was invited as the Guest of Honour, commemorating this memorable occasion with the graduating students. Parting thoughts: embracing skills and knowledge The ceremony commenced with the National Anthem. Professor Lee then began with a warm speech by acknowledging the graduates for their dedication, perseverance, and accomplishments throughout their academic journey, wishing them a bright and rewarding future. He encouraged the students: “You are starting a new phase of your life. The road ahead may be complex, and there will be challenges that you may face along the way. Remember that the skills and lessons you have learned, and they will serve you well in achieving your goals, overcoming obstacles, and realising your dreams.” In his address, the Guest of Honour, Professor Carroll remarked, “Success is never measured only by financial or material wealth, or by professional or educational qualifications. True success comes from finding meaningful and longlasting purpose, and from making a positive impact. This requires more than professional skill or academic knowledge. It requires understanding, empathy, diversity, and inclusivity.” Subsequently, Professor Carroll presented the Outstanding Teacher Awards to acknowledge the recipients’ exemplary performance. Professor Lee then conferred the Associate Degree and Higher Diploma awards on the graduates. Various awards and scholarships were also bestowed upon students in recognition of their exceptional accomplishments and contributions.

She reminisced about the poignant moment in March 2023 when the mask mandate was lifted, allowing students to finally see each other's beaming faces in person. Over the two years of study, enduring friendships were forged amongst fellow students, “They have given us joy when we are overwhelmed, support when we lack confidence, and motivation during our despair.” On behalf of the graduates, she expressed gratitude to their families for their unwavering love, encouragement, and sacrifices. She also extended thanks to the teachers for propelling students to academic heights beyond their expectations. “Your dedication and enthusiasm for education have inspired us to challenge ourselves and strive for excellence.

Cheung Chun-ming, who earned a Higher Diploma in Chinese for Professional Communication, expressed gratitude towards the dedicated teachers at the College, “They care for their students and readily answer their questions.

Spanning from October to November, this occasion featured an array of enlightening talks, panel discussion, exclusive visit, and music festival ticket discounts, providing alumni with opportunities to explore self-improvement possibilities and create enduring memories together. Industry leaders break the myths for you The Alumni invited industry leaders and celebrities to deliver talks. The inaugural session, titled “Enduring Learning to Becoming a Nutritionist”, was presented by Ms Cindy Au, a distinguished alumna. Ms Au, who has enrolled on 13 courses at the School since 2006, embarked on her academic journey from scoring 5 points in the HKCEE. Through unwavering dedication, she earned her master's degree and established herself as a nutritionist. During her talk, she shared her learning journey, insights, and experiences with fellow alumni. In light of global concerns regarding Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) issues and sustainability, the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (HKEX) introduced ESG reporting requirements in 2016 and that listed companies are required to disclose their ESG performance to enhance transparency and encourage the integration of ESG factors into corporate decision-making. In “Making Strides in ESG in the Logistics and Transport Industry”, industry leaders, including Professor Mak Chai-kwong, FCILT; Ms Margaret Cheng, Human Resources Director, MTRC; Ms Vicky Koo, FCILT, Global Chairperson, WiLAT and Director, Vizilog Asia Limited, and Mr Kenneth Law, CMILT, Program Manager, Spring HK, explained to our alumni how the transport and logistics sector can effectively embed ESG practices into their core strategies to elevate business performance. Professor Chan Yan-chong, a renowned financial analyst and commentator, delivered a talk on “Global Economic Prospect for 2025”, offering alumni insights into the projected global economic landscape for 2025 to aid in understanding prevailing conditions and seizing opportunities. All three talks and panel discussion were conducted concurrently through in-person attendance and live webcasts, garnering significant interest with over 300 real-time viewers and an overall viewing count of 15,000 by the end of November. Embracing technology, enjoying music In recent years, AI technology has emerged as a pivotal trend shaping the future trajectories of various industries. Since its inception, the Logistics and Supply Chain MultiTech R&D Centre (LSCM) has been dedicated to advancing logistics, supply chain management, and e-commerce in Hong Kong, alongside fostering innovation and technology. In early November, the Alumni visited the Centre to provide visitors with a deep understanding of the technological advancements and applications of AI in the logistics and transportation sector to stay abreast of contemporary developments. Freespace Jazz Fest, an annual musical extravaganza in the city, returned with a stellar lineup and nonstop programme of great sounds. This year, alumni can enjoy an exclusive ticket offer, granting music enthusiasts and their families the opportunity to revel in the festival's vibrant ambiance and unwind from the stress of daily life.
