Establishment of Greenovation, a JA company formed by Xaverians

The JA Company Programme provides an entrepreneurial learning experience for young people The programme seeks to nurture a new generation of entrepreneurial, innovative and civic-minded talents for Hong Kong. It is one of the largest youth entrepreneurship programs in Hong Kong.

With 32 Form 4 and 5 students in our school forming the company, Greenovation, has kicked off their fascinating journey of 9 months. Meetings will be held regularly every Saturday.

Justin Chan, the successfully elected CEO, introduced Greenovation during the morning assembly on October 28th. “Green Business” was the picked theme by the Xaverians. Promised to bring innovative elements to customers and shareholders, the name Greenovation, was formed. “The word Greenovation is the combination of two words: GREEN and INNOVATION.” He explained. “These are indeed the two core values of us.”

Meanwhile, Justin also delivered the vision and mission of the company, in which the mission statement is: “Change Your Lifestyle, Change The World.” Sworn to lead students from different classes, Justin _ to turn visions to clear missions, and to achieve them accordingly.

Apparently the boys have just ended their capital raising campaign, which took them less than two days to issue all the 200 public shares, costing $25 dollars each. Setting up counters in the campus, teachers and students purchased the shares during recess time, lunchtime and after school.

The students are now guiding by two business advisors, who voluntarily invest their time and experience in the company program. They are Mr. Paul Ho and Mr. Francis Chan – two alumni of our school.
