The Swire Properties Placemaking Academy has started four year ago, and to date, up to 48 students from five universities have been through this programme. After graduation, it doesn’t mean to an end of their journey, and it’s merely the beginning!

This year, we engage our alumni with a series of master classes and community engagement events. By keeping our door open for graduated students to join lectures given by top industry experts, the master classes provides knowledge transfer of experience and insights to our alumni, so to equipe them for any future challenges. Also, as part of Swire Properties’ 50th Anniversary festivities, 50 students and alumni from the Swire Properties Placemaking Academy are collaborating to create a state-of-the-art piece of outdoor furniture for the community. To make the project come true, they held and created a strategic plan with a series of engagement, design-thinking process, and production.
