2025 IMD World Talent Ranking
On RTHK program Backchat, experts including SOSC/PPOL Prof. Stuart GIETEL-BASTEN discussed HK’s rise to 4th place globally in the 2025 IMD World Talent Ranking. Prof. Stuart GIETEL-BASTEN emphasized that talent doesn't just arrive and exist in isolation. Instead, talented individuals launch their own businesses, work independently, and contribute to larger systems. Hong Kong boasts a skilled, dynamic workforce and top-tier educational institutions. However, attracting talent means welcoming not just individuals but their families as well, which requires creating an inviting environment. This includes ensuring international schools meet high standards, a challenge that is growing more complex. Investment in development is also crucial for Hong Kong's future.
