“Inspire. Empower. Lead.” More than just a slogan, the essence of HKUFBE serves as a guide for students and alumni to grow and achieve their dreams.

In our “LEAD Interview” series, we invited four outstanding students and alumni to explore the various facets of leadership – each based on an anchor word starting with L, E, A, or D.

Levy Jiawei Huai
D is for Driven

• 2014 Graduate in Bachelor of Science in Physics, School of Science, Renmin University of China
• 2014 Graduate in Bachelor of Economics, National School of Development, Peking University
• 2016 Graduate in Master of Finance, HKU Business School

From pursuing cross-disciplinary studies to career progression, each move demonstrates how Levy turns his motivation into an instrumental power to make changes.

The Drive for Cross-Disciplinary Exploration

“In music, every note, every pause, every movement shapes the composition. In finance, even the most complex projects are built piece by piece. It’s about precision, recognising patterns, and calculating risk,” said Levy. Music and finance may seem different, but both require a deep commitment to excellence. This relentless pursuit of excellence led Levy to step out of the physics world and explore finance, where he applied mathematical principles to bring logic to uncertainty and turn abstract numbers into real-world solutions. His cross-disciplinary journey began with the drive to translate excellence into daily practice.

Execution-Focused and Results-Oriented

As a typical ENTJ, Levy is highly execution-focused and driven by clear objectives. Once he sets a goal, he focuses intensely on achieving it, often entering a state of flow that enables deep focus and high productivity. His high standards for outcomes and the satisfaction from achieving them create a positive feedback loop, motivating him to pursue his endeavours.

Elizabeth Bergo
L is for Limitless

• 2019 Graduate, Bachelor’s Degree in International Business, Munich Business School
• 2021 Graduate, Master of Global Management, HKU Business School

After graduation, how did Elizabeth break boundaries while navigating the new world of finance and innovation?
Her story is a perfect example of “leading the future.”

A Journey of Growth Through a Tricultural Heritage

Elizabeth Bergo’s background is a mix of cultures. Ethnically Russian, she spent her teenage years in Austria before moving to Germany when she was 18 to pursue her undergraduate studies. Her trilingual upbringing not only stimulated the curiosity of different cultures, perspectives and mindsets, but also influenced her open-mindedness and has inspired her to keep exploring the world.

A Chosen Family at HKU

In 2020, Elizabeth enrolled at HKU Business School, during a very significant and challenging time. Although the COVID-19 pandemic brought face masks, social distancing and other restrictions into her life, none of these obstacles stopped her passion for knowledge and intellectual exchange.

As part of the first cohort returning to campus, she built strong connections with her tutorial classmates, who soon became her chosen family. They spent countless hours together on long and stressful study nights, sharing meals and exchanging aspirations. For Elizabeth, HKU was both a valuable place of knowledge and a starting point for self-discovery and personal growth.

A Cross-Disciplinary Experiment in Limitlessness

Elizabeth’s academic journey at HKU Business School reshaped her global perspective. After graduation, she launched her career at a crypto exchange, gaining experience in blockchain investigation. Now, she works for a local law firm, bringing in a diverse range of expertise and acting as a bridge between different industries, cultures and mindsets.

She firmly believes in the motto, “go beyond what you think is possible,” and embraces that life is full of limitless possibilities waiting to be discovered.

正值巴黎奧運會中國奧運健兒代表團訪問香港，港大經管學院也有這樣一位優秀校友站上了世界冠軍領獎臺，他就是金明。

出生在上海，作為自由潛水運動員的他，是多項亞洲紀錄的保持者，更是動態單蹼項目的世界冠軍 ，能一口氣潛游311米。自2018年正式學習潛水以來，不斷刷新紀錄，大大提升中國國家隊的全球綜合排名，從2019年及之前全球四十多位一路提升到目前全球前4位。然而，潛水並沒有佔用他太多時間。

為了在比賽和工作上取得成績，金明習慣於嚴格分配自己時間，減少社交和娛樂。他遵守「811法則」，把八成時間花在公司和事業上，一成用於潛水，餘下一成留給學習。

無論在競技場還是在商業環境中，他都不斷鞭策自己。現為TAKI極鏈科技發展集團有限公司創始人兼行政總裁的他，即便具有豐富投資及企業運營經驗，亦決定於2021年重返校園修讀香港大學 – 復旦大學工商管理（國際）碩士項目。他認為香港大學處於中西文化交融的環境中，兩年的國際化課程，不但有助於他獲取有關中國和全球的最新商業知識，更啟發他創造新型的投資理論框架和工具。他也非常受益於港大經管學院強大的校友網路，促進了他的國際視野和深度交流。

金明認為，別人可能只看到他的光環，卻忽略即使作為一名企業家及運動員，其實百分之九十九的時間都面對著挫折和失敗。他回想數年前在潛水項目 中遇到的諸多瓶頸，當時身邊的人，包括媽媽，都建議他激流勇退；但他依然咬緊牙關、堅持訓練，最終打破單蹼的世界紀錄。 面對商業上的挑戰，金明亦深信只要堅持，過程中必定能誘發新的技能，提升自己。

他寄語港大經管學院的校友們：「失敗才是人生的常態，記得再來！」
