港大经管学院非常荣幸地邀请到复星国际有限公司董事长郭广昌先生，担任2025年4月25日举办的「港大经管学院领袖企业家讲坛系列 2025年 – 第三讲」的主讲嘉宾。此次论坛中，郭教授与港大经管学院经济学实务教授毛振华教授展开深入对话，围绕复星因时而变、顺势而为的战略思维，探讨企业在经济新浪潮下如何调整战略重心并聚焦优势产业，为与会者带来深刻的商业洞见和启发。

讲座伊始，郭教授向会众介绍了复星的战略布局。他指出，复星战略聚焦健康、快乐、富足的幸福生态系统，致力发挥企业生态优势，为全球家庭提供涵盖全生命周期的幸福解决方案。具体包括：

• 健康板块：涵盖生物制剂、器械诊断和健康服务等业务板块，持续全球产业创新，构建医疗级、一站式、全场景的健康生态；
• 快乐板块：围绕家庭消费和旅游文化，构建全球化、全产业的快乐生态系统；
• 富足板块：聚焦保险、资管两大领域，打造复星富足生态产业布局；
• 智造板块：以战略性资源、功能性新材料和智能制造产业为主体，赋能产业高端化、智能化、绿色转型

随后，郭教授以企业周期为主轴，指出人类常因惰性而固守旧路径。若环境已产生变化，但企业未能及时调整策略与思维，便会因商业路径依赖及人的惯性，逐步走向衰退。他进一步提到，中国企业的「卷」，早在当年的钢铁行业便已有深刻体会。当时，许多企业在产能过剩与价格战的压力下，陷入低利润甚至亏损的困境。他强调，企业若要穿越周期、实现持续成长，必须因变而变，及时调整策略，避免陷入恶性竞争的陷阱。以复星30多年的发展历程为例，他深入剖析集团如何自创立以来不断捕捉市场机遇：从初期的小型市场咨询公司，逐渐转型进入房地产销售和医药行业；第二阶段透过投资整合资源，实现快速成长并初步完成国内产业布局；其后聚焦全球经济与科技发展，推动资源和人才的全球整合；到了后期，随着生活水准提升和技术进步，复星转而强调科创驱动，专注提升产品力和竞争力，聚焦满足家庭客户的消费需求。在后疫情时代，集团再度调整策略，专注发展优势产业，以迎接新的挑战与机遇。

针对宏观经济周期，郭教授强调全球化发展的重要性。他指出，企业领导者不仅需敏锐辨识市场机会，还要在每个经营决策中进行清晰的价值分析与认同，同时善于整合公司生态资源和能力，为企业创造更大价值。以复星的医药产业为蓝本，他分享集团从研发布局到产品上市经历十多年的历程，强调若企业缺乏前期规划和长远准备，便难以在当今社会建立竞争优势。他进一步提及集团的经营宗旨：「如履薄冰，如临深渊，战战兢兢，兢兢业业。」面对资本市场的潮起潮落，他建议创业者保持独立判断能力，并掌握产品与资本逻辑，方能在变幻莫测的市场环境中屹立不倒。

接着，郭教授以人和组织周期为类比，进一步阐述企业管理的核心要素：

• 核心是组织，关键是人才，驱动靠文化，科技为基础
• 管理形式需因应环境与需求弹性改变
• 以组织能力和文化价值推动管理变革和提升，并借助现代资讯科技技术进一步提高管理系统效率

在分享环节的尾声，郭教授勉励会众秉持三个「坚持」：坚持做对的事、坚持做困难的事、坚持要做需要时间累积的事。他强调，唯有坚守原则与长远眼光，方能在商业道路上行稳致远。此次讲坛不仅展现了复星在全球化与创新道路上的卓越实践，更揭示了企业家精神的深刻内涵，启发与会者在面对挑战时保持敏锐与韧性，以创新的思维与长远的视野迎接未来机遇，为个人与企业的发展注入新的动力和灵感。

Connectivity in Finance (“CIF”) is a three-day out-of-the-classroom event for HKU Business School students, which one can treat as a local field trip. The event was led by Professor Anna Wong, Programme Director of the Bachelor of Finance in Asset Management and Private Banking (BFin(AMPB)) and arranged primarily for the Year 1 and Year 2 Business School students who are interested in finance.  

 The CIF 2025 was hosted during the Reading Week between 10 and 12 March. A total of 58 students from all programmes participated, visiting and meeting senior government officials and banks/bankers covering private wealth management, asset management, and corporate and commercial banking. The students also have the opportunity to join a financial market trading workshop hosted by AmplifyME, giving them a taste of sales and trading.

 The event was well received by all the students, with some extracted comments quoted below:

“The CIF programme was an incredible opportunity to deepen my understanding of the finance industry, build meaningful connections and develop practical skills. This experience has further fueled my passion for the industry, and I look forward to applying what I have learned as I continue my journey in finance.”

Jonathan Yau, BBA(IBGM) Year 2

“The CIF has been a defining experience in my early career journey. Beyond the technical expertise, it instilled in me a profound respect for the human element in finance — whether in client relationships, cross-border collaborations or ethical stewardship of wealth.”

Stephanie Mak, BEcon&Fin Year 2

“The programme provided invaluable exposure to the finance industry through bank visits and practitioner interactions. I particularly valued the rare opportunity to receive direct advice from professionals. During the AmplifyMe simulation, I have the opportunity to understand the difference between short-term trading and longer-term investment strategy and do appreciate the latter.”

Samantha Kwok, BFin(AMPB) Year 1

“An event that fosters insight for prospective undergraduates to learn what it takes to be a Private Banker. Through deep sharing from esteemed individuals in this event, I can pinpoint my goals and realize the mindset I must adopt to understand clients, the markets and leverage ample opportunities for connections and learning.”

Jerry Ngo, BSc(QFin) Year 1

• Meeting Senior Government Official – March 10 morning

Students met with Mr. Joseph Chan, Under Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury, The Government of the HKSAR. Mr. Chan talked about the strengths and challenges of Hong Kong as an international financial centre and how students should prepare themselves in the midst of a challenging environment. Some comments from the participating students:

“The talk allowed for an understanding of the critical role that government policies play in shaping the financial landscape and ensuring economic stability.”

“The talk clearly shows the future job trend and government focus, such as green and sustainable finance and fintech.”

“I have a better understanding of the role that the Government plays and the importance of collaboration between public and private sectors in shaping effective financial policies.”

(Mr. Joseph Chan, Under Secretary for Financial Services and Treasury, sharing with HKU Business School students.)

(2) Visiting Banks and Meeting Bank Executives

Students visited four banks in two days, having the opportunity to meet both senior executives as well as young talents of the bank. While listening to senior executive presentations is a good way to understand the business strategy and opportunities, the students treasured a lot on the “speed dating”, “small chit-chat”, and “drinking chat” with the young executives and division experts. Amazingly, some analysts we met are our recent BFin(AMPB) alumni.

We visited DBS Bank, Goldman Sachs, Julius Baer and Standard Chartered Bank. The hosting banks represented a spectrum of businesses and cultures. Students have the opportunity to learn about private banking at Julius Baer and Standard Chartered Bank, Corporate/Commercial Banking at DBS Bank and Wealth and Asset Management at Goldman Sachs.

• Standard Chartered – March 10 afternoon

“I really loved the interactive private chit-chat session with the industry practitioners. It made the experience more unique and interactive.”

“My favourite session was the speed-dating for us to mingle with 6 mentors in 60 minutes; I raised questions for all 6 mentors and found their sharing to be very insightful.”

• DBS Bank – March 11 morning

(Prof. Winnie Leung, Assistant Dean (Undergraduate) of HKU Business School (front row, 4^th from the right), participating in the firm visit to DBS Bank and posing for a group photo with all DBS practitioners.)

“The session discussing how the bank competes with its competitors by integrating technology into its banking system is really an opener for me.”

“My biggest takeaway is the role of technology in banking and the digital transformation being the significant focus of the bank.”

• Julius Baer – March 11 afternoon

(Prof. Anna Wong (front row, second from the left) and David Shick, Market Head Greater China Hong Kong and Branch Manager Hong Kong, Julius Baer (front row, second from the right) with HKU Business School students.)

“My favourite part was the in-depth discussion on personalized wealth management strategies and how Julius Baer tailors its services to meet individual client needs.”

“The Branch Manager’s sharing was very encouraging and provided insights into the bank’s responsibilities and goals.”

“The office atmosphere and the speakers’ presentation style made me interested in working for the bank.”

• Goldman Sachs – March 11 afternoon

(Group photo featuring Prof. Anna Wong (3^rd  from the left) alongside representatives from Goldman Sachs.)

“I really liked and enjoyed the BFin(AMPB) alumni sharing, which provided a good networking opportunity.   Their sharing on how they got the job and their daily routines at the wealth management division and asset management division were inspiring.”

“My favourite part of the talk was the insights into the bank’s approach to risk management and how they navigate market volatility to protect client investments.”

• Sales & Trading Simulation – March 12

Students participated in a one-day Financial Market Trading Workshop organized by AmplifyME, which featured Asset Management and Sales & Trading simulations used by top firms. The simulations offered a realistic glimpse into the roles of sales traders, market makers and asset managers. 

(Group photo of the participating students from the trading simulation workshop.)

“It provided students with a good understanding of the dynamics between the buy side and sell side in finance and gave them hands-on experience bridged the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world application.”

Connectivity in Finance (“CIF”) is an annual event. If you have missed the opportunity this year, do watch out for the next offering in March 2026!

On 8 April 2025, the third “Hong Kong Crypto Finance Forum” was held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.
