SHKP has always fully supported the development strategy of the country and the HKSAR government. The company and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) recently signed two memoranda of understanding (MoU) to enhance the strength of collaboration between the industry, academic and research sectors in Hong Kong, to promote innovation and technology (I&T) upgrading in the construction industry, and to cultivate outstanding talent.

In the MoU on SHKP X PolyU Building Innovative & Technology Research Projects, the company promised to carry out research with PolyU in three categories: green applications, green materials and green processes. The team will also explore new ways to transform and commercialize the research output to help Hong Kong develop into a smart, carbon-neutral city.

The company also launched the Building Homes with Heart Scholarship Programme to support 56 academically outstanding students with limited means who are majoring in real estate and engineering-related subjects and eager to explore development opportunities in Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area. SHKP Chairman and Managing Director Raymond Kwok attended the signing ceremony and said, "We hope to leverage PolyU's strengths in academic research and our extensive practical experience to foster innovation and technology research in the construction industry. By utilizing innovative technologies in our projects, SHKP will respond to the strategy of achieving 'peak carbon and carbon neutrality', which is laid out in the National 14th Five-Year Plan, and will help Hong Kong become a green, low-carbon international I&T hub."
