We Believe:
That faith in God gives meaning and purpose to human

That the brotherhood of man transcends the sovereignty of nations;
That

That government
should be of laws rather than of men;
That earth’s great treasure lies in human
personality;
And that service to humanity is the best work of life.

Junior Chamber International Hong Kong (JCIHK)(formerly named as “Hong Kong Junior Chamber”), inaugurated in 1950, is affiliated with the worldwide leadership development organization – The Junior Chamber International (JCI). JCI has a worldwide membership of over 200,000 and more than 100 countries around the world.
In Hong Kong, we have about 2,000 members representing a network of highly motivated and forward looking young men and women who are mostly entrepreneurs or executives from a wide range of trades and businesses. The active members are between the ages of 18-40 from 21 local chapters, who make full use of their leisure hours to work for the betterment of the community and themselves.
The purpose of Junior Chamber is to provide leadership development opportunities that empower young people to create positive change.
CONNECT TO EVOLVE
As a leading global network of young active citizens, we aim to provide opportunities for young people to develop leadership skills as well as to create positive impact to our community. Every year, members of the organisation are elected and appointed to take up leading positions at different levels for a one-year term to continue the mission of the organisation since its establishment over 70 years ago.
Our slogan to kick-start 2024 is “Connect to Evolve”, which means that we encourage individuals and organisations to prioritise building relationships, collaborating with others, and embracing new ideas in order to evolve and grow. It conveys a sense of optimism and possibility, and suggests that by working together and learning from one another, we can achieve great things. Overall, this slogan is a powerful call to action for anyone who wants to make a positive impact in their community or in the world at large.
AIESEC is an international nonprofit run “by young people, for young people.” The organization offers an avenue for individual development and cross-cultural understanding through opportunities like volunteering and interning abroad. Together with AIESEC, JCI recognizes and grows the innate talents of young leaders around the world.
As the world’s largest business organization, the ICC shares our mutual goal of ensuring peace and well-being through socially responsible business and entrepreneurship. The organization represents more than 45 million companies in over 100 countries and provides resources that enable JCI members to participate in community-building commerce locally, nationally and internationally.
Aiming to empower the world economy through smart investing, the WBAF works across borders to create financial resources for entrepreneurs. JCI and the WBAF use their partnership not only to encourage innovation amongst JCI members, but to give them the necessary skills to make their innovative ideas successful in the market.
BNI and JCI will work together to support entrepreneurs and business leaders and boost local and global economies. BNI’s goals include helping professionals achieve their dreams, support their families and grow their businesses. Together, our international networks will bring new opportunities to the global business community.
