The ESG Innovation Lab will act as a hub for ESG corporations and ventures to build partnerships, and facilitate growth and inclusion
Hong Kong now has its first dedicated physical space for its ESG community.
Located in the city’s Central district, the ESG Innovation Lab was launched by Dream Impact (DI), a network of social enterprises and impact ventures, and The Executive Centre (TEC), a premium flexible workspace provider.
The hub’s purpose is to engage and gather the local community of organisations and businesses pursuing socially conscious innovation.

The 2,000 sqft space is equipped with co-working desks, two meeting rooms that can be joined and a tatami area for community gatherings. Designed to provide an eco-conscious and collaborative environment for all users, the space is suitable for hosting workshops, training sessions and meetings.
It is hoped that the ESG Innovation Lab will be a location for people involved with ESG initiatives to experiment, communicate and take greater action.
DI co-founder and chief catalyst Dorothy Lam commented on the launch, “This is a groundbreaking project to bring together 120-plus social impact partners in Hong Kong and the corporate world to go beyond reporting and actually implement ESG and impact strategies on the ground. The world is awakening; we need an integrative way of doing business. ESG Innovation Lab is here to demonstrate that using ESG as a framework, impact and purpose can be integrated into your business, your work and your daily life.”
