ClothClip is a creative and eco-friendly platform for you to bid for your own fashion stylists and to manage your wardrobe. We have created a unique channel for you to communicate with other fashionistas around town. So that you can get inspired on how to mix and match your clothing and also so that fashion stores can increase sales This can be achieved through combining our creative Online-to-Offine marketing solution with ibeacon technology and our mobile application. From an environmental point of view, fast fashion has increased clothing wastage in Hong Kong. According to our market research, this is mainly because people do not know how to match the various items.
To remedy this problem, ClothClip aims to build a creative platform for users to make use of their existing clothes for exciting new looks. In addition, to help users to dress more fashionably and stylishly, the fashion stylists on our platform will suggest suitable fashion items from our partner stores. ClothClip wants to empower the fashion talents and support local stylists. We will do this by providing a platform for them to shine on the stage and build their personal brands. However, we are not only helping local stylists. We are also helping local fashion boutiques, as this is a new way for boutiques to increase sales. This is because if the boutiques use ibeacon technology, they will be able to identify the preferences of potential customers.

Vibrant, energetic, efficient, are the words that best describes our home — Hong Kong. However, behind the success, over 60% of people work over 12 hours and sleep less than 6 hours per day in order to secure their livelihood. Under such a harsh environment, people are more likely to suffer from mental diseases, which can seriously hamper their health, and disrupt family harmony. Facing such a social problem, we proudly introduce the EasyGreen, technical re s earch and e duc at ional team . We aim to br ing c alm and re velat ion through introducing a brand new selfdesigned hydro-planting system with a tailor-made service. Our target will be residential households, universities and the commercial sector.
The hydro-planting system (with out the use of conventional soil) is free of soil pollution and is an easy way for participants to experience the joy of getting high yields in a shorter period of time in contrast to the traditional planting method. Such experience could help alleviate stress and maintaining good mental health. As a value-added feature, EasyGreen also encourages their customers to grow vegetables, such as lettuce and tomatoes, in order to gain satisfaction from harvesting. Several pilot studies were conducted at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University and local schools that demonstrated positive r e s u l t s . F e e d b a c k f r o m participants including students and staff were very encouraging, indicating that the hydro-plant service has a welcome effect not only for personal relaxation, but also for mental and psychology health. We sincerely believe that we can jointly make Hong Kong become a better place.

Therefore, Hong Kong needs an immediate alleviation to poverty among the elderly and a source of low-skilled work. Nearly one third of elderly people (290,000) were in financial hardship – figures from Hong Kong Council of Social Service 2011.

Hong Kong faces a number of urgent problems. We have identified that: • high consumption of imported meat impedes the development of local organic farming; • busy professionals have poor diets as having little time to prepare their own food; • an ageing population of low-skilled workers is causing stress on social and welfare dynamics.
Green Timer is a green living community with a solution. We offer a healthy, sustainable, and efficient diet experience to white-collar professionals in central business districts. Through our services, customers can order delicious organic meals — customized to their own tastes and needs. The meals will be prepared by the elderly, stay-at-home mothers, unemployed and underemployed. We are the first subscription plan provider that offers “a la carte” options online. You can build your own dietary plan to reach personal health and fitness goals in two simple steps: (1) place an order with health professionals’ advice through our website or mobile application; (2) select an appropriate subscription plan for meals delivered to your office. Orders can be one-off or monthly plans. Our customers will save time and enjoy healthy, organic diets. They will also help local suppliers to develop sustainably. Best of all, customers will know that our services directly benefit those in need. To sum up, we serve caring meals with a conscience.

HeArtistic believes in the power of art in raising people’s awareness towards mental health. Poor mental health is a huge problem plaguing modern society. Would it surprise you that more than 450 million people around the world suffer from mental illnesses? In Hong Kong, the figures are even more worrying — around 30% of our population suffers from mental health issues and 39% of employees rate their work stress as high. Also, recovered patients are experiencing serious stigma and discrimination when trying to integrate into society, especially in the workplace.
HeArtistic (HeArt Expresso) was established in 2013 with the wholehearted commitment to improve the mental well-being of members of our community, including you. Our social enterprise provides unique and fun “Therapeutic Expressive Art” services. It is a powerful exercise that combines visual arts, music and other creative processes to foster self-understanding and to help relieve stress. And the great thing is that anyone can join. We believe that prevention is better than cure. The prevalence of mental illnesses in Hong Kong can be lowered by building people’s awareness towards their own mental health; so as to relieve stress and achieve work-life balance. Meanwhile, we look forward to engaging and empowering people who have recovered from mental illnesses through the establishment of the HeArtistic Art Centre. We aim to eradicate stigma, so as to build a more inclusive society. “Through art we express our hearts; Through art we change the way people see the world.” will continue to be HeArtistic’s motto.

Homey is a non-profit making business offering experience game about the lives of low-income families. Serving as a platform between low-income families and the public, Homey provides not only the opportunity for participants to experience, learn and reflect on difficult living conditions, but also the chance of working as volunteers to reach out to the needy. We will recruit members from low-income familes to share their first-hand experience and oversee the game. It is also proposed to be a supplementary course for Liberal Studies at secondary schools. The experience game is designed as a one-day camp. It would be split into three stages: ‘Enlightenment’, ‘Task Force Challenge’ and ‘Mission and Vision’.
1. Enlightenment Participants have lectures and sharing sessions about the problems of poverty in Hong Kong. 2. Task Force Challenge Participants tackle challenges like cooking a meal within a limited budget, doing cleaning and scavenging jobs. 3. Mission and Vision Participants volunteer by visiting low-income families, have reflection sessions and pen-pal projects in order to sustain the impact of the camp. Homey aims to highlight the problem of wealth inequality and raise public awareness about social issues, especially regarding poverty. As for teenagers, they can also learn more about the subject matter in Liberal Studies in an out-ofclassroom environment.

在香港這個高壓城市，中小學生因為考試制度、家庭環境、朋輩關係等因素而承受的壓力 實在不容忽視。根據一份2013 年的研究報告，全港有近一半 (45.6%) 學生有中度，甚至嚴重 心理健康問題。惟現時全港近 500 間中學，約 40萬個中學生，平均每間中學只有1.5位駐校 社工，即每名駐校社工平均要照顧多達 800 個學生的情緒健康。
有見及此，Mindful HK 將成為學校和駐校社工的緊密伙伴，共同為學生的心靈健康而努 力。我們將成立 Mindful Campus 計畫 ── 一個為期9星期的正念課程。正念源自東方 的傳統，藉著培養學生對自身與周遭環境的覺察，提升他們的專注力以及應對壓力的能 力，讓他們能更快樂地學習，成就一個心靈更健康的校園。

Transfriendly — transforms the travelling experience of the visually impaired In Hong Kong, there is little adaptive equipment to aid the mobility of the visually impaired. To get by, the visually impaired hold up a self-made sign with the bus number and rely on bus drivers or other passengers for help. Therefore, Transfriendly aims to assist the visually impaired to regain an active role in taking transportation.
Our enterprise is pleased to announce the development of a revolutionary system, which assists the visually impaired to take buses. This is now possible through a groundbreaking combination of the local bus companies’ mobile apps, plus a smart white cane with enhanced functions. The smart cane is no ordinary cane. It comes with a specially designed device attached to the handle. When the mobile app is paired with the smart cane, they can synchronize. Operating the products could not be simpler. Our users merely input the bus route on the app or cane and the system connects with the transmitter on the bus. Transfriendly then alerts our users when the bus arrives. Transfriendly also informs the users about the next stops during the journey. Our future plan is to extend Transfriendly to other transportation, and serve visually impaired from other cities in Mainland China. The visually impaired have the right to be included socially. We hope to start with transportation — a simple but challenging daily task. We also hope Transfriendly can reintegrate the visually impaired into society and raise awareness about their needs.

One of the missions of JOBDOH is to create more tailored work opportunities for the under-served, such as the elderly, single mothers, visible minorities and young people. JOBDOH really aims to provide the best temporary jobs for our users who would need experience or extra income but are finding it hard to find jobs given their hectic lifestyles.
Geospatial Search Finding the nearest job based on the map is a sub-optimal solution for geo-searching, because the nearest jobs help save travel time and transportation costs. However, by matching region-to-region data, we provide the cheapest and quickest options. Matching Algorithm To ensure the best matches and reduce the need for manual screening, JOBDOH collects user data to create a rich profile and build a pattern of user behavior. Instant Job Notification JOBDOH provides up-to-the-minute and instant task notifications to users. If the system detects unread app notifications, we will also send a reminder through SMS and email, ensuring users receive the latest updates.

The platform aims to bridge the gap between volunteer groups or individuals and aid-needed communities through the following procedure: Currently, there are more than 1.2 million registered volunteers and at least 2,100 volunteer communities in Hong Kong. Such a large number of volunteers can promote all kinds of volunteer work. However, we also find that there is a so-called volunteering mismatch, which means that some of the aid-needed by different groups can hardly get sufficient or suitable help. There is also a lack of information exchange among volunteer teams themselves. So we propose an online communication platform in order to solve these problems and improve the efficiency of volunteering.
a) b) c)
Aid-needed groups post their needs and details on the timetable. Registered volunteer groups apply for providing these services on the platform. Both the service requirement and their capability of satisfying such needs should be taken into consideration. Aid-needed sides match and select the ideal applicant. Once the application is approved by the aid-need side, the online status will change and the corresponding item on the timetable will be blocked.
The platform also serves as an online community for volunteer organizations to exchange work experience and share their meaningful moments. Through all the information matching and activity promotions, we aim to:
• Attract at least 500 volunteer communities and 100 organizations, which are in
need of help e.g. welfare houses, nursing homes, orphanages.
and aid-needed groups.
• Provide comprehensive information and successfully match volunteer communities

Our Aims 1. Educate the public to understand more about reptiles. Prevent undesired accidents by misunderstanding reptiles.
Issues / Problems 1. The killing of healthy reptiles for their rare and exotic skin is common in undeveloped countries. We have to stop the purchase of these products and educate the public about protecting reptiles. 2. The misunderstanding about reptiles causing deadly attacks when reptiles come into contact with people. 3. When pets die, their owners will miss them. So owners might be looking for something to remind them of their beloved pets.
2. Spread Social awareness to stop killing healthy reptiles and discourage the public from purchasing exotic skin products. 3. Reintroduce the beauty of reptiles and their natural peels — the reuse and reproduction of their peel with design would showcase the possibilities of eco friendly products. 4. Custom design allows the owners to remind themselves of their reptiles. 5. Allow people with intellectual disability to be employed to produce our products with our simplified design 6. Donate part of our income for the environmental protection of reptiles.
Current Market Status For common pets like cats and dogs, there are already products. However, we see a gap in the market for reptiles. In fact, we often receive requests from the owners of reptiles to make a custom design with reptile peels. Our product helps reptile owners to recall the memory of their pet by letting people look at and carry their reptile’s patterns.

JoinT promotes social integration between those with and without disabilities, and stimulates employment for the disabled. The disabled have talents in the arts or other professions. However, the combination of lacklustre support in education and bias among employers restricts opportunities for the disabled. Furthermore, simply relying on charities cannot secure a job. Therefore, giving more opportunities for the disabled to showcase their talents is essential to develop their careers. JoinT believes that sharing people’s talents will create happiness for all. This is why JoinT provides a unique art centre, which incorporates a co-working space and exhibition activities. Through this exciting platform for artistic exchange, the disabled can interact with the general public through a new experience.
The “T” in JoinT represents our 3 core values: Talents, Teaching, and Transforming. 1. Talents: connecting talentedmusicians,artists,and other creative artisans. Our activities will promote the message of social integration and may also include contributions from disabled people. 2. Teaching: providing workshops for the disabled to learn artistic skills and develop their artistic portfolio. 3. Transforming: developing the talents in disabled people to help create work and possibly a career in art. JoinT will first target physically disabled talents to join. When the business model can sustain the physically disabled group, we will expand it to include the visually and intellectually disabled among others. We believe that career development is motivation for the disabled to work hard and persevere.

我們認為教育是解決以上問題的最有效方法。我們希望透過體驗活動讓學生明白弱勢社 群在社會所遇的不公及困難，並於具有社會性的 (Sociological) 體驗活動（如情境代入及 角色扮演）中完成不同範疇的任務，訓練學生的自主性及道德思維，讓他們變得更富同理 心，並且能推己及人。我們第一期的主題將圍繞殘疾人士的生活，例如輪椅人士外出時遭 遇到的困難，好讓學生們能夠更明白他們的經歷，甚至關注他們的福祉。

More Livable HK Evergreen is an organization focusing on all things “green,” with emphasis on reducing Hong Kong’s carbon footprint by making energy efficient technologies accessible. This is possible through a combination of financial modeling and environmental consultation. Energy efficient technologies for commercial buildings abound, yet few commercial property owners are upgrading their buildings. Although owners know the huge potential savings, they are discouraged by the high up-front costs. Commercial tenants also fear that any capital improvements will mean increased rents. Simply put, there are huge incentive gaps making commercial electricity usage inefficient and wasteful. More than 60% of electricity usage in Hong Kong is from commercial properties, and Hong Kong’s electricity is generated by burning coal. Therefore, if commercial usage is reduced, we can drastically reduce Hong Kong’s carbon footprint, and improve the health of its residents. Also, property owners will see significant cost savings.
Win-Win Solution Through Evergreen’s Green Revolving Fund, we will provide low interest loans to cover the capital costs needed to install energy efficient technologies. Property owners then repay the loans using the cost savings from lower utility bills. As the loans are repaid, the GRF grows. The money is then redeployed to new projects. This is a win-win scenario where owners can upgrade without disrupting their tenancies or cash flow. GRFs have proven to be financially sustainable. The savings are extremely predictable making defaults unlikely and the social impact quantifiable. It is rare that such a simple idea can have such a significant impact.

Step 1 Equip yourself Students would be recruited regardless of their financial situation. At the initial stage, some piano rooms will be rented regularly by paying instant rental fee. After two years, a music centre with all lessons would be carried out there.

There would be two levels of tuition fee, the standard fee and discounted fee. Students from financially stable homes can join lessons at the standard fee. Students from underprivileged homes can join and pay only 20% of the standard tuition fee.
Due to heavy financial burdens, students from low-income families are denied many opportunities in life. For example, they are unable to enjoy playing music. Accelerato aims at providing fair chance of enjoying the amazing world with professional, inspiring and caring music learning experience for every single children no matter what family they come from.
The fees from standard tuition would be used to sponsor students paying discounted rates. Teachers would receive a lump sum of 60% of the tuition fee per student. Therefore, parents paying the standard rates would have an opportunity to help fund a socially minded solution. Step 2 Devote yourself Free music instrument rental, exam subsidies and scholarships would be provided for students paying the discounted rates. However, once these students receive qualifications and complete the training, they would be invited to teach new students or act as teaching assistants. This will maintain a sustainable cycle.

OXYT is a lifestyle brand … where the products embody our values. Our products encourage sustainable and ethical consumerism through their functions. For example, the lunchboxes and bags encourage sustainable food consumption and responsible takeaways. A unisex T-shirt encourages minimalistic yet elegant consumerism. An up-cycled bag encourages “recycling” consumerism. So consumers will see that all our product designs are based on social or environmental issues.
The lifestyle … through using OXYT products, consumers will demonstrate socially and or environmentally responsible consumerism. Also, our me ss age is cle ver l y embedded in a chip fused into the product design. This allows consumers to be able to interact with the products by tapping their smartphones on the brand logo and then consume the content. However, the real innovation is that the content will be periodically updated and generated by our algorithm so as to provide a more interactive and rewarding user experience. The impact … each content can have three kinds of “call to actions”, behavioral change, message sharing and donations – depending on the nature of the content. For every recipient of a message share, the sharer will be given an “Omp”. Each unit of donation is HK$15 and is branded as a “Cassion”. We believe that by integrating design, fashion and technology into a single product – we can capture peoples’ attention and deliver our messages clearly, promote behavioral change, and allow for consumers to help us spread the messages.
