The HK Prize and the HK Science and Technology Innovation Prize

The hk prize is an exciting writing competition that gives authors the chance to win monetary awards. It’s important to read the rules and regulations carefully before submitting work. Doing so will help ensure that your work is up to par and will have the best possible chance of winning. Those who are successful will be able to build up their careers and increase cultural awareness of Hong Kong.

This year’s HK Prize nominations feature activists working for freedom and democracy, including those who face imprisonment as they speak out. The award also recognises young people who are helping society through their service, such as providing food for the needy or teaching art to underprivileged children. The hk prize is the most prestigious writing competition in Hong Kong and offers writers the opportunity to earn recognition for their work. Winners will receive a hefty cash prize and can use the money to further their careers. The competition is open to students in Hong Kong and abroad, so it’s a great way for them to gain recognition for their work.

Founded in honor of the late Professor Wang Gungwu, the prize encourages Hong Kong undergraduate and postgraduate students to study history passionately while striving for academic excellence. It supports research and scholarship on Hong Kong history and its connections to mainland China and the wider region, as well as fostering collaborations among scholars in the area of Hong Kong studies. The prize is funded by a donation from former students and colleagues of the Department of History. The gift has been matched under the government’s sixth round matching scheme.

The HK Phil is proud to have won the award for its box-set recording of Wagner’s Ring Cycle, which was a four-year project. We are grateful to our supporters, especially the Hong Kong SAR Government and principal patron Swire Group, as well as music-lovers around the world who voted for us to receive this prestigious prize.

The HK Science and Technology Innovation Prize is a merit-based award designed to recognise scientific research with significant societal relevance, encouraging young researchers to specialise in areas like artificial intelligence/robotics, life/health problems, new materials energy usage and advanced manufacturing, and establishing Hong Kong as a center of excellence for innovation. The competition has three main categories with five winners in each: the Life & Health category, the New Materials & Energy category and the Advanced Manufacturing category. The judges are renowned experts from academia and the business sector, with the power to deny prizes, withdraw certificates or take further measures for any breach of professional ethics.
