CUHK MBA students dive deep into innovation and global business in Singapore

A delegation of 40 students from the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) Business School MBA programmes embarked on an enriching study trip to Singapore in March, immersing themselves in one of the world’s most vibrant hubs for innovation, finance, and global commerce.
Designed as part of the CUHK MBA experiential learning curriculum and led by Professor Chen Zhi, the trip combined academic rigour with real-world exposure. Participants engaged in thought-provoking knowledge-sharing sessions with renowned faculty members from the National University of Singapore, Nanyang Technological University, and Singapore Management University.
The delegation also visited six leading companies at the forefront of technology, finance, and infrastructure, including Google Singapore, Alibaba Cloud, the Monetary Authority of Singapore, Standard Chartered Bank, TikTok and Surbana Jurong Private Limited. These company visits enabled students to explore business strategies, operational challenges, and innovation practices firsthand.
One of the highlights of the trip was the exclusive Director’s Table networking event, where students connected with industry leaders in Singapore. These meaningful interactions offered valuable career insights and helped expand professional networks in the region.
