It has pushed all sectors to adapt and reconfigure their business strategies and operational models. While businesses are gradually moving into a recovery cycle, stakeholders have got to get prepared for future challenges, may it be new waves of COVID-19 or transitions driven by global climate change. Businesses ought to build resilience by rethinking the risks and impacts brought by the conventional linear economy, and exploring how they can capitalize on the opportunities that arise from a circular economy model to attain sustainability for the company and the wider society.<\/p>\n Industry Focus<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Known as Asia\u2019s \u201cCulinary Paradise\u201d, the Foodservice sector in Hong Kong remains vibrant although COVID-19 has put the industry in a particularly difficult position. Given its size and nature, the food service industry is resource intensive and generates large volumes of waste, such as disposable plastic tableware, food waste, and other types of municipal solid waste. In the short future, waste disposal will come at a cost. This is due to the introduction of municipal solid waste charging in Hong Kong. Hence, it brooks no delay to explore how resource use can become more efficient through collaborating with other value chain actors in realizing the circular economy.<\/p>\n Capstone <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n To deepen the collaborations between SVC Commitment Signatories and their nominated SME Participating Organisations in the Scheme, this year a practice-based approach (Capstone) is adopted. With the Capstone, implementation is the core part to attain the \u2018Gold\u2019 Leadership Recognition (for SME Participating Organisations). Participating Organisations can transform their sustainability plans into practice and deepen the learning through sharing their accomplishments at the wrap-up workshop and exchanging experiences with other Participating Organisations.<\/p>\n For registration or enquiries about the SVC Commitment and SMEs Sustainability Leadership Recognition Scheme, please contact the PSLB team through\uff1a<\/p>\n Email: pslb@hku.hk 2022 Cohort – Application Deadline 31 Aug 2022\uff1a This year, we have further enriched the Scheme through developing a theme and industry focus: Theme: Circularity and Resilience COVID-19 has certainly brought wide-ranging impacts to businesses across industries and geographies.
