HKUST Business School Ideas Lunch Series – Alumni Online Sharing: At the Driving Seat of Digital Transformation
To keep up with our efforts in alumni engagement, HKUST Business School is presenting the Ideas Lunch Series, an online lunchtime chit-chat session featuring successful alumni from different industries.
On July 23 (Thu), our BBA & MSc alumna Maria HUI, Director of Marketing and Operations at Microsoft Hong Kong, will share and interact with the alumni community online. A well-known tech giant, Microsoft has been a strong driving force behind various waves of digital transformation. Most recently and in the wake of COVID-19, they have seen more and more businesses urgently implementing workplace solutions that enable their staff to safely and efficiently WFH or work remotely. Looking ahead at the new normal: what trends are expected and how can business executives capture the opportunities to drive further innovation and business performance? Maria will share with us her experience at the core of this transformation, as well as her takeaways from her journey from a management consultant to a prominent female leader in the tech industry.
The webinar will be moderated by Professor Dongwon LEE from the ISOM Department.
