University of Warwick Provost celebrates former students in Hong Kong

Professor Christine Ennew OBE, the Provost of the University of Warwick, will make her final international journey before retirement to celebrate the achievements of over 8,000 Hong Kong-based Warwick alumni in business, technology and entrepreneurship.

During the trip to Hong Kong, Professor Ennew will speak at the Asia Universities Summit about the contributions of Warwick’s alumni, who have excelled in various fields, including business, technology, finance, and entrepreneurship. The visit aims to strengthen existing connections, foster new partnerships, and explore avenues for collaboration between the University and its Hong Kong-based alumni.

Some of the most notable Warwick alumni in Hong Kong include writer and broadcaster, Chip Tsaio, Founder and Managing Director of KG Group Education Joanna Hotung and Doris Ngie-Lau – Founder of AMAVII Eyewear.

Professor Ennew said: “It’s a real pleasure to be visiting Hong Kong on my last official international trip for the University. It’s such a vibrant city with a strong community of Warwick alumni. I’m excited to have the opportunity to connect with our talented alumni, learn about their remarkable achievements, and explore ways to further strengthen our relationship.

“The University of Warwick has always placed great value on its alumni, and I look forward to celebrating their successes and working with them to understand how we can collaborate more effectively in the future.”

The University of Warwick has a long-standing tradition of engaging with its alumni, recognising their significant contributions as ambassadors for the University’s reputation and impact worldwide. The Hong Kong alumni community has played a crucial role in enhancing the university’s global presence and this visit aims to foster closer ties and encourage continued collaboration.
