URBAN INNOVATION IDEAS COMPETITION
The ULI Urban Innovation Ideas Competition seeks to promote innovative ideas, collaboration, and leadership among young professionals in the property industry. The competition explores creative and practical solutions to a project relevant to the urbanization of our city.
ULI Young Leaders Group (YLG) Hong Kong is proud to have launched its first ever real estate development case competition for young professionals. This competition seek innovative design and business proposals that generated fresh ideas for the sites in the Star Street neighborhood.
The spirit of the competition is collaboration, and it adopts an interdisciplinary approach. We seek proposals that include design, business, and financial aspects. We welcome young professionals from all real estate-related industries to form teams of two to four people and propose innovative ideas!
The competition ran from late September 2017 to early December 2017 in two stages—a preliminary round and a final round. Finalists chosen for Stage 2 will be receiving mentoring from senior industry leaders. The winning team received a cash prize and a chance to present its proposal at the 2018 ULI Asia Pacific Summit in Hong Kong in June.
