CUHK MiM Students Gain Global Perspective during Two-Week Immersive Study Trip in Singapore and Vietnam

Students of Master of Science in Management (MiM) Programme at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) Business School have recently concluded their Capstone Project and learning journey over a two-week study trip to Singapore and Vietnam.

The Capstone Project is an international consulting experience designed to allow MiM students to apply their classroom knowledge to real-world business challenges. This year, students were tasked with creating innovative business solutions to Fountainhead Partners, a leading multi-family office that specialises in ultra-high-net-worth families in Singapore.

After months of training and preparation, students presented their proposals to Fountainhead Partners’ senior management during the study trip. The judges were impressed by the students’ insights into the industry and the creative and practical solutions they proposed, which ranged from branding to client engagement and all-in-one digital solutions.
