Ms. Weng Wenlei, Vice President of the Shanghai Women's Federation said, "The 'Hang Lung Future Women Leaders Program' and the 'Seagull Project' are deepening their collaboration in terms of innovation and co-creation, establishing a long-lasting working synergy that will assist female college students to excel and blossom in their lives.

Ms. Miranda Wong, Director of The Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups Leadership Institute expressed her delight at co-organizing this pioneering initiative of the Institute with Hang Lung.

I believe that with the specific training and exposure they will receive, the young women really will be able to enhance their leadership and professional competencies, while also reaffirming their commitment to Hong Kong."

The inaugural edition of the "Hang Lung Future Women Leaders Program" will roll-out in Hong Kong and Shanghai, engaging elite women leaders from various fields as program mentors. They will groom 200 female university students, nationwide, to develop personal and professional leadership skills and tap their inner strengths through a six-month mentorship, multi-dimensional training, and community projects.
