Hang Lung launches program to support young founders

The entrepreneurs also receive renovation support, marketing assistance, and access to promotional platforms.

Hang Lung Properties has launched Community · Connect, a new community investment initiative aimed at empowering young entrepreneurs and promoting career and cultural diversity.

As part of the effort, Hang Lung has provided three rent-free retail spaces at Peak Galleria, Kornhill Plaza, and Amoy Plaza to selected young business owners.

In addition to rent-free access, the entrepreneurs also receive renovation support, marketing assistance, and access to promotional platforms.

The program's goal is to give participants real-world experience in retail operations, allowing them to test their business models and engage with customers. 

Three entrepreneurs were selected from nearly 80 applicants. Their ventures range from sustainable fashion and preserved flower art to a trading card business that also serves as a community hub.
