The Global Youth Entrepreneurs Forum (GYEF) is a major event of The Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups (HKFYG), which brings together young entrepreneurs and innovators from around the world to explore how entrepreneurship and innovation can address global challenges and drive sustainable social growth. Since its inception in 2014, the Forum has engaged more than 6,500 stakeholders across 34 countries and regions, including unicorn founders, angel investors, policymakers, and representatives from venture capital firms, chambers of commerce and academic institutions.

Under the theme Think Global, Be Agile: Navigating the Next Era of Entrepreneurship, the 2026 Forum will bring together 500 emerging leaders shaping the future of business, with the aim of equipping participants to navigate the volatile global market through AI-powered tools for digital transformation, agile business models such as One Person Companies (OPCs) and strategies for scaling ventures across borders.

To bridge ideas with real-world application, the Forum will explore Hong Kong’s strategic strengths and feature immersive visits to Qianhai, Shenzhen. These experiences will highlight collaboration opportunities within the Greater Bay Area and beyond, inspiring participants to think ambitiously, act decisively and scale globally.
