Hong Kong entrepreneurs Arthur Lam and Brandon Ng both apply technological solutions to make the property industry more sustainable. We grill both founders in the Social Impact Quickfire to learn more about their work and mission
What drives some of Asia’s most dynamic social entrepreneurs? How do they build a culture of innovation? And how are they leveraging technology to make a greater impact on the world?
We had so many burning questions for the winners of this year’s Gen.T x Credit Suisse Social Impact Awards that we couldn’t choose between them. So we decided to ask them all—really, really fast.
Produced in partnership with Credit Suisse, the Social Impact Awards recognise Gen.T honourees who are using technology to create social impact at scale.
For the Social Impact Quickfire, we partnered a 2021 awardee with a previous winner in the same industry, shooting off dozens of rapid-fire questions about their company, their why and the impact they make.
