HKU Vietnam Strengthens Industry And Alumni Connections Through HKU Business School Delegation Visit To Ho Chi Minh City

Earlier this May, HKU Vietnam coordinated a special business visit for the delegation from HKU Business School (HKUBS) in Ho Chi Minh City, further strengthening the growing connection between The University of Hong Kong and Vietnam’s business community, strategic partners, alumni network, and future talents.

As HKU continues to expand its presence in Vietnam, the visit marked another important milestone in fostering international collaboration, career development opportunities, innovation partnerships, and academic-industry engagement across Asia.

During the trip, representatives from HKUBS had the opportunity to meet and exchange ideas with leading organizations and corporations in Vietnam, including Tessellation Binh Duong, P&G, Sunwah Group, FPT Software, MBBank, Techcombank, MoMo, Pizza 4P’s, and China Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam Ho Chi Minh Branch, alongside many other valued partners, to explore potential areas for future collaboration..

The discussions focused on emerging sectors shaping the future of Asia and the global economy, including:

• Artificial Intelligence (AI)
• Fintech and digital transformation
• Innovation and startup incubation
• Executive education
• Talent development and leadership training
• Cross-border business collaboration between Hong Kong and Vietnam

Through these conversations, multiple potential collaborations were explored, ranging from internship and recruitment opportunities for students, corporate projects, customized executive training programs, innovation initiatives, to knowledge-sharing platforms connecting academia and industry.

These partnerships are expected to create meaningful value for businesses while opening new pathways for students, alumni, and future leaders interested in studying and building careers in Asia.

The Growing HKU Alumni Network In Vietnam

Another highlight of the visit was the vibrant gathering with the Vietnam alumni community of HKUBS.

The event brought together alumni across industries such as finance, technology, consulting, entrepreneurship, and corporate leadership. Through conversations and shared experiences, alumni reflected on their journeys at HKU and how the university has shaped their global perspectives and professional growth.

The expanding HKU alumni network in Vietnam continues to serve as a dynamic bridge connecting Hong Kong, Vietnam, and the wider Asian region — fostering knowledge exchange, business collaboration, and long-term community impact.
