About the Exhibition
The Centre for Social Innovation Studies (CSIS) has been an active advocate for environmental education that integrates humanities and the arts to foster cross-sectoral behavioral change. This year marks a significant milestone for CSIS as it embarks on its inaugural collaboration with Maxim’s Group, a leading catering enterprise in Hong Kong. Together with renowned designers, eco-material manufacturers, and other stakeholders, they launched the “BEST with LESS Hong Kong Tertiary Institutions Sustainable Packaging (F&B Industry) Design Competition.”
The competition showcases innovative designs aimed at promoting sustainability in the food and beverage packaging industry. The eight shortlisted designs from the first round of judging were exhibited at New Town Plaza from September 21 to 24. The results of the competition were announced during the award ceremony on September 22, attended by guests including Mr. Tse Chin-wan, Secretary for Environment and Ecology, Mr. Keith Siu, Chief Operating Officer (Hong Kong and Macau) of Maxim’s Group, and over a hundred professionals from academia, the design industry, and the environmental sector.
With the support and sponsorship of HKIAPS and Social Responsibility and Sustainable Development Office, the design works are currently on display at the ground floor of Esther Lee Building at CUHK and will be showcased at various tertiary institutions in the coming months.
