Key points in this episode:
What are the gaps in the Asian changemaking ecosystem?
How could transnational exchanges and learning build better social support?
How do we develop alternatives and open more doors for the communities we serve?
Where are the programmes that build capacity of an entrepreneur like mental resiliency?
How much space do we allow a young person to have an experimental mindset?

He was also engaged in managing innovation challenges (Good Seed) under a HKSAR government initiative (SIE Fund), early-stage innovation/ideation at University level, participatory social design and knowledge exchange across cities (i.e. 5% Design Action).
