Being creative and innovative needs inspiration, and so we need to check out the best practices around the world.
All 12 initiatives (as shown beneath) to enhancing the profile of Hong Kong in the past year are very much appreciated. Top 6 initiatives (marked by *) are awarded a trophy each for the enormous support and enthusiasm. Among them, 1 from each region is recognised most outstanding and awarded HKD $20,000 on top of the trophy.
