Empowering Students Across Hong Kong, Macau, and Other GBA Cities to Explore Future Career Paths Through Artificial Intelligence
Inspiring Families to Plan Together for a Future of Opportunities and Challenges

HONG KONG, Nov. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly becoming a driving force in societal development, and the creativity and innovative thinking of younger generations will be key to shaping the future. To inspire students’ vision of tomorrow and foster collaborative learning between parents and children, Manulife Hong Kong has partnered with Preface, a technology education company, to organize the AI Creativity Competition: Prompt Your Future Career. This initiative follows the successful debut of the “Future Ready Experience” in September, which featured the “Back-to-School: AI Open House” and the “Future-Ready Workshop Series”. Open to primary and secondary students aged 6 to 18 across Hong Kong, Macau, and other Greater Bay Area (GBA) cities, the Competition invites participants to explore diverse career possibilities through AI technology and prepare themselves for the future.

Research shows that 65% of today’s primary school students will work in jobs that do not yet exist^[1]. By 2030, it is estimated that around 170 million new roles will be created globally^[2]. As career landscapes evolve rapidly, the next generation must be equipped with technological knowledge, creative thinking, and adaptability to thrive in the AI era.

Empowering the Next Generation to Navigate an AI-Driven Future Through Innovation and Career Exploration

In response to this dynamic landscape, the AI Creativity Competition is centred on creativity and AI application, encouraging students to think beyond traditional career paths by using AI tools to envision emerging professions, redefine conventional roles, or create entirely new ones that address future societal needs — inspiring them to craft their own blueprint for the future.

Entries will be assessed by a panel of judges comprising representatives from Manulife, Preface, and other leaders in business and tech education. Evaluation criteria include creativity, AI application skills, and presentation ability. For the first time, Manulife’s proprietary “AI Judge”^[3] will also be introduced, offering AI-generated feedback to complement the panel’s assessments. The Competition is divided into three age groups, with six finalists selected from each group to compete for three major awards: “Future Career Visionary Award”, “AI Creativity Excellence Award”, and “Community Favourite Award”. The total prize pool exceeds HK$15,000.

“Manulife and Preface share a common vision to empower parents and children to plan for the future through technology and innovation,” said Celia Ling, Chief Marketing Officer of Manulife Hong Kong and Macau. “This competition not only enables primary and secondary students to explore the latest applications of AI technology, but also inspires them to connect with future opportunities. It helps families build a solid foundation to embrace the challenges and possibilities ahead.”

“We’ve always believed that technology should empower young people to imagine the future and drive change, rather than be a distant or exclusive domain,” said Tommie Lo, Founder and CEO of Preface. “This competition combines AI with career exploration, offering students a hands-on experience of innovation while prompting them to reflect on the skills and creativity demanded by the workplace of the future. Amid the rapid evolution of AI, we aim to expand the space for imagination through education, encouraging the next generation to take initiative in shaping their futures.”

Complimentary AI Training Workshops^[4] for First 100 Registrants to Boost Creativity and Application Proficiency

To further enhance students’ creative thinking and AI application capabilities, the first 100 registrants will be offered complimentary access to exclusive AI training workshops^[4]. These sessions will cover text generation tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Gemini^[5]), image generation platforms (e.g., DALL•E, MidJourney^[5]), and storytelling techniques. Tailored sessions will be held for both primary and secondary school students to ensure age-appropriate learning experiences. The workshops will be supported by Manulife’s AI team, providing creative and technical guidance, and led by Preface instructors, delivering a practical and inspiring AI learning experience.

The AI Creativity Competition is more than just a contest – it is a platform for future-focused learning. Through participation in the Competition and workshops, students will explore the vast possibilities of AI, uncover their personal potential, build confidence, and develop critical skills for navigating the future.

“Shopping on FASHIONPHILE feels a bit like discovering a secret archive — elegant, storied, and beautifully organized. Each item tells you something about the world it came from. One can shop with confidence knowing everything is so carefully authenticated,” shares Martha Stewart.

Martha Stewart is featured in both a photo campaign and a 15-second video, where she showcases FASHIONPHILE’s curated, one-of-a-kind collection of ultra-luxury handbags and accessories from brands like Chanel, Hermès, Louis Vuitton, and Goyard. In the video, Martha highlights FASHIONPHILE’s circular marketplace through the ease and accessibility for both buying and selling high-end bags and accessories, as well as the company’s strong commitment to sustainability. As a longtime enthusiast for secondhand treasures, Martha’s genuine appreciation for pre-owned shopping made this collaboration a natural fit. She brings her signature polish, mastery of elevated living, and timeless style to the partnership, perfectly embodying the spirit of authenticity and accessible luxury.

Martha recently attended the FASHIONPHILE x Assouline book launch event in New York, carrying her iconic Birkin, the same one featured in The Book of Iconic Bags. Martha’s bag will be on display at FASHIONPHILE’s NYC Flagship through December.

“As the face of our 2025 Holiday brand ambassadorship and the ultimate authority on quality and timeless taste, Martha Stewart is uniquely positioned to speak on the enduring value of luxury resale,” said Sophia Tsao, Chief Digital and Marketing Officer of FASHIONPHILE. “Martha is the quintessential face of the Holiday, so who better to partner with this holiday season.”

Martha’s distinct and timeless style is captured throughout the collection. From exquisite handbags to striking accessories, every piece reflects her impeccable style and appreciation to circular fashion. To shop Martha’s favorites, visit FASHIONPHILE.com.

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, Nov. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Dar Global, the luxury international real estate developer and first Saudi company to be listed on the London Stock Exchange, announces today that continued expansion in Saudi Arabia has contributed to an increase in its gross development value (‘GDV’) to US$19 billion, with a total international development pipeline exceeding US$19 billion across multiple markets.

Ziad El Chaar, CEO of Dar Global

Dar Global continues to expand its footprint and deepen its focus in Saudi Arabia, with a number of exciting recent launches in the GCC, contributing to the increase in GDV. The business is confident about the opportunities that lie ahead, both in terms of potential projects and the region’s transformative growth. Further updates will be shared in due course, as each new development project is unveiled.

This milestone reflects Dar Global’s position at the forefront of Saudi Arabia’s ongoing transformation, as the country prepares to open its property market to foreign non-resident investment in January 2026. This step marks a defining moment for the Kingdom’s real-estate sector, and Dar Global is among the first to capitalize on this new era of openness and international participation.

Commenting on the announcement, Ziad El Chaar, CEO of Dar Global, said: “Dar Global was built on a deep understanding of where global and regional wealth flows are heading. As the Kingdom enters a new phase of openness and global integration, we are uniquely positioned to lead this next chapter — connecting international investors to the Saudi story. The increase of our GDV to USD 19 billion reflects not just growth in numbers, but confidence in our vision, our execution, and in Saudi Arabia’s extraordinary potential.”

The Company’s accelerated growth is the result of a series of high-profile project signings and strategic partnerships in Saudi Arabia, reinforcing its long-term commitment to the market. Dar Global’s developments align with the ambitions of Vision 2030, blending international design excellence with the cultural authenticity of Saudi destinations.

Supported by its London Stock Exchange listing, Dar Global continues to attract global investors, including buyers from over 115 nationalities, expand its footprint, and deliver world-class developments that redefine luxury living across London, Marbella, Dubai, Jeddah, Riyadh, Muscat, and Doha.

Pilot deployments are already underway with select regional clients, laying the foundation for broader expansion beyond Southeast Asia.
