The 213th Congregation Ceremony of the HKU Business School took place at the Grand Hall, Centennial Campus, The University of Hong Kong on December 4 and 5, 2024. This momentous event spanned six sessions, creating a truly special occasion for all involved.

One of the highlights was an inspiring speech delivered by Dean Professor Hongbin Cai. As the graduands entered the next chapter of your life, Professor Cai reminded them: “Embrace the unknown, take calculated risks, and step outside your comfort zones. Opportunities are often found where others see only uncertainty.”

The Votes of Thanks were delivered by graduand representatives Lei Fu, Wei Wang, Xiaona Peng, Daryl Byron Wong, Pinshu Wen and Xinye Liu. They expressed heartfelt gratitude to the faculty, staff, families, and friends for their unwavering support throughout the academic journey. Their words resonated with the audience, capturing the essence of the challenges faced, the triumphs achieved, and the optimistic, forward-looking mindset of the graduates as they embrace the opportunities ahead.

The Congregation Ceremony was attended by over 3,500 people, including more than 1,500 graduands embarking on the next chapter of their lives and 2,000 families and friends who came to support and celebrate this remarkable milestone.
