CUHK Business School Celebrates 35 Years of Nurturing Top Accounting Professionals

In celebration of the 35th anniversary of BBA in Professional Accountancy (PACC) Programme, the School of Accountancy at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) Business School organised a dinner event at New World Millennium Hotel Hong Kong on 12 August, gathering 120 guests from professional firms and associations, alumni and faculty members.

Highlight of the event includes the captivating speech delivered by distinguished guest speaker Ms. Loretta Fong, President of the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants, partner at PwC and an ardent alumna from PACC.

“What sets us apart is the true value we bring – compassion, integrity and human connection. These qualities are at the heart of our education in CUHK. In the course of digital transformation, I hope we will continue to impact the business and community with the spirit of humanity.”

In this meaningful event, the School took the opportunity to express their appreciation to its staunch supporters. Their generous contributions have made a myriad of opportunities possible and sowed the seed of giving back among the young generation of accounting talent.
