Building A Strong Talent Pipeline
for Hong Kong’s Future
In a world where technology, artificial intelligence, and emerging industries are transforming career pathways, young people need greater access to exposure, guidance, and opportunities to navigate what lies ahead.
FutureGen Youth Foundation (formerly FutureGen Girls Foundation, established in 2020) is dedicated to preparing the next generation for the future of work.
At FutureGen Youth Foundation, our mission is to empower, equip, and support secondary-aged youth in their career development journey. Through transformative educational programs and career readiness resources, we aim to build a stronger, more diverse talent pipeline for the future of Hong Kong.
We bring together schools, community organisations, institutions, and corporate partners from across 20+ industries to help youth explore and prepare for future careers in a rapidly changing world.
In line with our core mission – empowering, equipping, and supporting youth in their journey from education to future careers – our work is built on two important pillars:
FutureGen Girls: Continuing our flagship FutureGen Young Women Leaders Award Scheme – supporting girls’ leadership, confidence, and future-ready skills development.
Ignite18: Jumpstart Your Career: Inspiring and supporting secondary school students on their career and life planning journeys. Additionally, Ignite18 provides opportunities for careers masters and parents to gain latest industry trends and career opportunities insights to support students’ transition to future careers.
Through these initiatives, the Foundation connects education with diverse, real-world industry insights — equipping young people with the access, opportunities, and resources they need to become tomorrow’s workforce.
