Special Announcement – UFP Award 2019

Due to transport interruptions resulting from the recent social activities in Hong Kong, the Council of HKRFP has made the decision to cancel the Final Round of the UFP Award 2019 Competition and the Award Presentation Ceremony which was scheduled to be held on 16 Nov 2019 (Sat) at 10:30 am.

It was a difficult decision as this year’s Competition has received an overwhelming support from our student community with high quality proposals and presentations submitted in the first two rounds. The Council of HKRPF has resolved to adopt a slight change in selecting the winning team this year. The in-person presentation in the Final Round will be cancelled while the panel of judges will assess the power-point proposals submitted by the Final Round contestants to determine the winning team. The final result will be announced on or before 25 Nov 2019 via the HKRFP website. The Award Presentation Ceremony will be announced later when more details are available.
