Bond Entrepreneurship and Family Business Progam featured at roundtable event in Hong Kong

Associate Professor of Entrepreneurship and Family Business, Dr Justin Craig, was one of a select few invited by Dr Roger King, Director for the Centre for Asian Family Business and Entrepreneurship Studies, to the HKUST Asian Entrepreneurship Roundtable held in Hong Kong on March 1 2011. The invitational event brought together world renowned academic researchers in the field of entrepreneurship with regional practitioners to create an opportunity for better understanding and to explore new subjects of entrepreneurship research.

The event was a great opportunity for the participants to learn from each other and to compare solutions and challenges with people from different cultures. Justin shared Bond’s distinctive approach to entrepreneurship research (contextualised in corporate entrepreneurship, social entrepreneurship and family enterprising) and pedagogy (framed in effectual entrepreneurship) alongside scholars from Texas A&M (Professor Michael Hitt) , Johns Hopkins (Professor Phillip Phan), Rice (Professor Haiyang Li), Erasmus (Professor Justin Jansen), Concordia (Professor Michael Carney), HKUST and CUHK, among others. Notable entrepreneurs included Jack Ma and Joseph Tsai (members of the founding team of Alibaba.com), Andy Tung (Orient Overseas Container Line), Eddy Lee (Lee Kum Kee), Jim Thompson (founder Crown Worldwide Group), Po Chung (founder DHL International), Ming-Po CAI (founder Cathay Capital), Jack Lau (founder Perception Digital), and Frank Lai (China Resources Enterprises).

Involvement in invitational events such as this highlights that Dr Craig and the Australian Centre for Family Business' work has long been regarded highly by discerning judges abroad assuring that Bond and the Business Faculty, and more importantly, current students and alumni, are well recognised on the international stage.
