PSB Academy expands its City Campus with S$10 million high-tech STEM Wing

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 29 July 2022 – PSB Academy announces plans to launch PSB Academy City Campus: STEM Wing, an expansion of its City Campus in Marina Square. The new S$10 million premise brings together high-tech and industry approved laboratories and facilities to bolster science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education for students.

The existing campus will be renamed PSB Academy City Campus: Main Wing to distinguish the identities of both premises. The STEM Wing will add more than 35 per cent of additional space to the current 100,000 square feet across two floors. The Academy has plans to repurpose the current STEM Campus at Jackson Square for other educational and research purposes in conjunction with the expansion of the Academy’s City Campus.

New STEM Wing facilities

PSB Academy’s STEM Wing will be the first-in-kind STEM facility to be available in a mall, and the Academy has taken great care in selecting, planning, and building the new addition, taking into consideration the environmental and safety aspects of the STEM Wing.

Students can look forward to an integrated space that is designed for both learning and leisure. The STEM Wing and Main Wing will have shared facilities such as classrooms and study areas that will be open to all students and guests to enjoy.

The STEM Wing features innovative renewable energy machine trainers with interactive software, hydraulic benches, 3D Printers aimed at introducing additive manufacturing technology and more. As part of the campus, new laboratories will include high-tech gadgets such as 3D cameras, gas metalysers, gel imaging systems, and rotary evaporators across both Sports Science and Life Science laboratories.

The Future of STEM Workforce

With greater demand for workers trained in STEM fields, the launch of the new Wing will accompany updates to the Academy’s curriculum to create more industry-relevant courses and certifications. PSB Academy will also be strengthening its programmes in Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, Data Science, and Robotics to meet the demands of a changing job landscape.

“The launch of PSB Academy’s new STEM Wing marks a monumental milestone for us,” said Derrick Chang, CEO of PSB Academy, “as it represents an investment that expands our support for the growing needs of our students, which will ultimately have long-term impact in fostering a STEM-capable workforce.”

“With the addition of these advanced equipment and facilities, we hope to elevate STEM education and create a collaborative and inclusive environment for all our students during their time at PSB Academy,” he said.

The campus is slated to be open for operations from November 2022. More information about the new campus will be updated progressively at https://www.psb-academy.edu.sg/.

Hong Kong SMEs Show Signs of Uptake of Sustainability and ESG, Despite Limited Risk Awareness

HKU Survey throws light on how to make sustainability and ESG more relatable to Hong Kong SMEs, enabling the sector to involve more and driving real impact

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach – 28 July 2022 – ESG and sustainability issues alike have been moving up the corporate agenda in recent years. According to Google Search Trend, the keyword ‘ESG’ search popularity in Hong Kong has been soaring and surpassed ‘Sustainability’ in May this year. However, public curiosity about the topic doesn’t seem to convert into actual practice, according to the territory-wide small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) sustainability survey (the Survey) conducted by the Centre for Civil Society and Governance (CCSG) at The University of Hong Kong. From November 2021 to April 2022, the Survey solicited views from 1,400 SMEs (SMEs) in Hong Kong to understand their perceptions, practices, and preparedness towards achieving sustainability.

Supported by The Hongkong Bank Foundation, the Partnership for Sustainability Leadership in Business (PSLB) programme under the CCSG at The University of Hong Kong organised the third Knowledge Primer (KP) today, with the theme ‘Rethinking Sustainability for SMEs: Go Circular and Build Resilience’. The event brought together over 120 sustainability experts and industry practitioners. The KP started by releasing the findings of the ‘Diagnostic Study for SME Sustainability Survey’, which provides a landscape analysis of the uptake of ESG and sustainability by Hong Kong SMEs, and identifies the pain points that hinder their capacity to take further action. The Study also provides a baseline for any future research and market analysis on SMEs’ sustainability efforts and achievements.

SMEs Tend to Perform Better in Resource Management

According to the findings, slightly over one-third (36.7%) SMEs rated themselves as effective at advancing sustainability goals compared to only 4.4% of SMEs rated ineffective. Among the 24 practices across five dimensions, namely governance, workplace culture, customer-supplier relationships, resource management and innovation, the study reveals that the average number of sustainability practices adopted was 7.7 across all industries. No particular sector has an impressive performance across all five dimensions, but SMEs tend to perform better in resource management while there seems to be considerable room for improvement in innovation and corporate governance.

Top Three Most Pressing Sustainability Challenges for SMEs

The majority of SMEs (98.3%) indicated that they encounter sustainability challenges now and the top three sustainability challenges are namely economic and financial instability (65.4%), global health crisis (e.g. COVID-19) (53.8%), and consumer expectations (22.9%), which suggest that SMEs are struggling to stay resilient and recover from the unstable economic environment. In contrast, long-term social-ecological risks such as climate change, human rights, and inequality only received 6.3%, 4.8%, and 3% of respondents identified them as a challenge. This might suggest that SMEs are less concerned about the potential risks induced by climate change, or not aware enough of social challenges such as inequalities at workplace that could cause serious implications for their businesses in the long run. This implies the need to educate SMEs about the importance of integrating the ESG framework as an enterprise risk management practice so that they can realise potential risks early on and mitigate the impact.

Government and Industry Support to Speed Up the Sustainability Advancement

According to the findings, the most needed support for integrating sustainability into the SMEs business operations, strategies and business models are namely financial support (47.7%), and marketing support (41.2%), whilst such support is ideally provided by the Government (69%), followed by business associations, and banks and financial institutions, both received 30.8% of the response. This implies the most effective way to encourage SMEs to integrate sustainability is to offer financial incentives. It urges the government to accelerate the development of Green and Sustainable Finance and offer an actionable timeline and policy framework for financial institutions and business organisations to follow.

Professor Wai-Fung Lam, Director of the Centre for Civil Society and Governance (CCSG), and Professor of Politics and Public Administration at the University of Hong Kong remarked: “The business sustainability agenda has been steadily gaining momentum. However, the spotlight remains on the role of multinational corporations and listed companies. As the engine of economic progress, SMEs have made diverse contributions to social and environmental well-being. Yet, their unique challenges and constraints have not been widely studied. This points to the need to understand the role and positioning of SMEs in creating the impulse to achieve widespread positive, social, environmental and economic change for a more sustainable future.

Award Ceremony of the SVC Commitment and SMEs Sustainability Leadership Recognition Scheme

The release of the report findings was followed by the award ceremony of the SVC Commitment and SMEs Sustainability Leadership Recognition Schemes (The Scheme), for recognising the achievement and support received from the participating corporates and SMEs of Cohort 2021. A total of seven SVC signatory companies, including Japan Airlines Company Limited, LH Group, Nan Fung Development Limited, New World Development Company Limited, Rosewood Hotel Group, Starbucks Coffee Asia Pacific Limited and The Hong Kong and China Gas Company Limited, alongside 16 SMEs from across different industries received Merit recognitions.

At the corporate dialogue session, representatives from the participating corporate and SME of Cohort 2022 shared their insights on the merits of collaboration with value chain stakeholders in advancing sustainability goals.

Mr. Him Lo, Senior Manager, Cultural and Community Engagement, Nan Fung Development Ltd said, “Achieving sustainability such as the transition towards circular economy and an inclusive society has become increasingly dependent on partnerships with diverse stakeholders along the value chain and across different sectors. Companies and organisations including large corporates, SMEs, start-ups, social enterprises and NGOs should pull together resources, knowledge and skills with the aim to accelerate sustainability innovations and lead on better social and environment outcomes.”

Ms. Vickie Au, Founder of V Visionary Limited added, “The SVC Commitment and SMEs Sustainability Leadership Recognition Schemes provides a useful platform to connect like-minded companies to act on specific sustainability issues through collaboration, innovation and creativity.”

Lastly, details of Cohort 2022 of the Schemes regarding the theme on “Circularity and Resilience” and “Foodservice” industry focus were announced with an official call for applications. The PSLB team is also pleased to announce that New World Development Company Limited and Sino Land Company Limited have expressed interest to participate in the action realisation of the Scheme, with an aim to drive circular economy practices and build resilient value chains.

Residential and CRE Investments in GBA Gain Traction

Residential property prices rose across the board

New economy assets such as industrial, logistics and data centres on the rise

Transactions In 1H 2022 Amounted to RMB24 Billion, 5-Year Record High by Investment Share in Greater China

  • In 1H 2022, the overall sales figure for the primary and secondary residential market demonstrated a year-on-year downturn. Nevertheless, the majority of the transactions were premium and luxury properties, pushing the overall house price benchmark upwards. The total sales figure for the year is expected to rise by 5% to 10%.
  • The CRE investment market in the Greater Bay Area (GBA) recorded a total transaction value of RMB24 billion, accounting for about 32% of the total large size deals (>100M RMB) in China, hitting a five-year record high by investment share.
  • Investment in new economy assets such as industrial, logistics, and data centres has increased significantly and started to dominate the market. In particular, transactions of industrial logistics in Shenzhen made up 73% of the GBA market, a six-fold rise on the same period last year.
  • Investment transaction activity in 1H 2022 was dominated by domestic investors at RMB22.2 billion, demonstrating optimism in investment appetite.

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach – 28 July 2022 – Global real estate services firm Cushman & Wakefield today published its Greater Bay Area Property Investment Market Review and Outlook 1H 2022. In 1H 2022, the residential market in the Greater Bay Area (GBA) demonstrated a price increase, but coupled with a fall in the number of transactions. The overall sales figure has dropped by around 45% y-o-y, yet the price has shown a general upward trend. With the development of GBA cities becoming more mature and as the transportation network completes, demand in logistics from Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Dongguan have expanded to other GBA cities, resulting in increased investment activities in new economy assets such as industrial, logistics, industrial parks, and data centers. However, due to the continued impact of the pandemic on corporate development and retail consumption, investors have become more cautious about conventional offices and shopping centres, while self-use-driven purposes covered 90% of the total investment share.

Residential Price and Sales Volume in the GBA

Amongst all GBA cities, residential property prices in Guangzhou and Shenzhen have shown outstanding performance, while the other seven cities remained stable. The two major cities of Shenzhen and Guangzhou have recorded RMB75,045 and RMB38,821 per sq m, representing a y-o-y increase of 17.1% and 13.6%, respectively. Other cities such as Foshan and Dongguan have recorded an approximately 80% increment since 2017, with Guangzhou showing a 136% rise (Chart 1). The impact of the pandemic, and the recent government control measures in Shenzhen and Guangzhou, resulted in pre-sale and supply of premium and luxury properties instead of mid-range priced stocks. As a result, the noticeable rise in property prices masked the declining trend of transaction volume in all cities.

From the sales data, the overall sales figures and residential property prices in the GBA have moved in opposite directions in 1H 2022. The number of first- and second-hand transactions have totalled around 190,000, a fall of 45% y-o-y. Although being the highest among the GBA cities, the sales figures of Guangzhou and Foshan were still behind the performance at the same time last year. The drop was most obvious for Huizhou, Zhuhai, and Dongguan, at 60% y-o-y.

Alva To, Cushman & Wakefield’s Vice President, Greater China & Head of Consulting, Greater China mentions, “The increment of first-and-second-hand residential property prices in the GBA in 1H 2022 was driven by transactions of premium and luxury properties, while we expect the price to remain stable throughout the year. Despite a plunge in overall transaction volume in 1H 2022, we expect the transaction volume to increase by 5% to 10% as the government’s control measures ease.”

GBA CRE Investment Transaction Number and Value

Since the launch of the Framework Agreement on Deepening Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Cooperation in the Development of the Greater Bay Area in 2017, CRE transactions have become more active, gradually increasing CRE’s share of investment in Greater China. Despite the impact of the pandemic, the total national transaction value was recorded at RMB74.7 billion in 1H 2022. Large size transactions in the GBA attributed to 32% of the Greater China share, hitting a five-year high since 2018 (Chart 3), showing the increased investment traction. The total annual transaction value is expected to reach RMB65.5 billion for the full year 2022.

Transaction Value and Distribution of Investors

In terms of transaction value, most transactions in the GBA were smaller value deals. Of the 26 deals recorded in 1H 2022, 19 of them were below RMB1 billion, accounting for 73% of the deal count (Chart 4). As for the source of market capital, transactions from foreign capital plunged by 80% y-o-y. Transactions by foreign capital amounted to RMB8.6 billion in 1H 2021 but only RMB1.8 billion in 1H 2022, while those by domestic investors reached RMB22 billion. This shows investors’ optimism towards the future of the CRE investment market.

Investment Types by CRE Assets in the GBA

Charli Chan, Cushman & Wakefield’s Executive Director, Capital Markets, China shared, “Investors have become cautious about traditional assets, with self-use making up close to 90% of the office investors. Meanwhile, investment in new economy assets such as industrial, logistics and data centres has significantly increased (Chart 5) and will likely reach RMB20 billion in 2022. At the same time, the total transaction value in the GBA will likely reach around RMB65.5 billion in 2022.”

Property transactions in Shenzhen and Guangzhou have remained active amongst the GBA cities in 1H 2022, with Shenzhen achieving 15 large-size transactions totalling RMB11.55 billion, while Guangzhou recorded 10 large-size transactions totalling RMB12.1 billion. This figure has also broken a new record and marked a five-year high in the local market. In Shenzhen, industrial property transactions made up 73% of the total and recorded a six-fold increment y-o-y. Amongst the transactions were those from biotechnology, logistics, data centres, and traditional banking and insurance industries, demonstrating a diversified array of CRE investment sources in the GBA.

Alva To, Cushman & Wakefield’s Vice President, Greater China & Head of Consulting, Greater China concluded, “The enhancement of the transportation infrastructure network in core cities in the GBA has resulted in increased demand for logistic assets in Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Dongguan; and brought about greater prosperity and integration to other GBA cities. Apart from traditional properties such as offices and shopping centres, we also expect new economy properties such as industrial logistics, industrial parks, and data centres to join the limelight in the CRE investment market in the GBA. In addition, development plans around the GBA such as the Northern Metropolitan and Qianhai will gradually gain more attention from investors and bring about a greater platform and interest in future investment opportunities.”
