CUHK Business School Students Shine in ACCA Hong Kong Business Competition 2022-23

Themed “The Digital Future is Now: Creating your transformative visions for a better world” this year, students were challenged to develop innovative ideas to accelerate the transformation journey to drive sustainable growth for World Vision Hong Kong, the case partner this year.

Taking on the role of a business consultant, each team was tasked to design a campaign, project or product for a chosen work area of World Vision Hong Kong, with the adoption of at least one virtual tool such as Blockchain, Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT), Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Metaverse. While the solution is digital, the impact should benefit the needy in the physical world.

Two CUHK teams took home the First runner-up, Second runner-up, as well as the Research Excellence Award and Best Presenter Award. They received cash prizes along with full sponsorship of ACCA Qualification Initial Registration Fee and ACCA Annual Subscription Fee for one year. This year, all awardees were presented with blockchain certificates and digital badges for building their digital credentials on social platforms.
