Master’s Students Explore London’s Innovation, Global Business, and Culture!
“The field trip was an inspiring and rewarding experience. During the Sprint Day, I collaborated with people from diverse cultural and academic backgrounds, sharpening my communication skills. I also formed meaningful friendships and cherished moments, making this trip truly eye-opening for both my personal and professional growth.”
— Student Reflection – Jonathan Ho, Master’s student
This month, our Master’s students completed the London Entrepreneurial Experience, led by the HKU TLV Innovation Hub. The week brought together innovation, entrepreneurship, and global business insights in one of the world’s most dynamic financial and creative capitals.
Students took part in expert-led sessions focused on key topics including UK monetary and economic policy and the geopolitical landscape of the UK and Europe, providing valuable context for understanding today’s global business environment.
A major highlight was an interactive Design Thinking workshop, followed by an intensive Sprint Day. Working in teams, students partnered with the global digital freelance marketplace ‘Fiverr’ to tackle real business challenges, developing creative, impact-driven solutions and pitching their ideas in a fast-paced, real-world setting.
Alongside the academic program, students experienced London’s rich cultural landscape through guided visits to iconic sites such as the London Eye, Tate Modern, and the British Museum. The group also explored local restaurants and took part in a British cooking workshop, adding an authentic and immersive cultural dimension to the experience.
The week concluded with shared reflections and group experiences, marking a meaningful journey of learning, collaboration, and new global perspectives.
