What is the HK Prize?
The Hong Kong Prize is one of Asia’s premier high school contests that honor academic achievements and extracurricular participation. Participants may win cash prizes, travel expenses or perks across a wide variety of fields; it is crucial that participants read all rules and regulations prior to entering this competition so as to build strong reputations while experiencing self-discipline.
This year’s Hong Kong Prize nominations included activists fighting for freedom and democracy – some who had even been arrested or imprisoned as they pursued their cause – as well as social justice initiatives such as providing shelter to homeless adults. All these individuals exemplify how human spirit triumphs even under great duress, providing inspiration to us all.
Other notable HK Prize recipients have used technology to assist homeless students and an artist who interprets human rights into fine art concepts. The award serves as an important motivation for young people to follow their passions and broaden their global perspectives; furthermore it seeks to foster Hong Kong’s scientific research culture which has produced several Nobel laureates over time.
In addition to financial prizes, the Hong Kong Prize provides top 10 finalists with various perks such as shopping vouchers and food & beverage perks. However, it should be remembered that the competition has stringent requirements; therefore it is wise to read through submission guidelines prior to applying.
Hong Kong’s film industry is an integral component of its economy, producing some of the most beloved and innovative movies ever seen around the globe. Hong Kong filmmakers are widely recognized, having earned awards such as Cannes Film Festival’s coveted Best Film award as well as local recognition from Hong Kong Film Association’s annual HK Film Awards ceremonies.
HKFA serves as an invaluable platform for young directors. Winning films receive awards in multiple categories – acting, music composition and editing as well as action choreography – from acting to music editing and action choreography. In addition, special recognition is extended to veteran performers and martial arts stars by this competition.
The HK Prize is an international, merit-based award open to researchers worldwide and free from sponsorship or committee influences. It recognizes scientists whose work has had an immediate impact on society while encouraging their pursuit of excellence in three distinct areas: artificial intelligence/robotics; life/healthcare innovation and materials/energy innovation.
