To nurture cross-regional design talent and unleash young people's creativity and commercial potential, Straight A organised the “2026 Campus Packaging Design Competition.” Demonstrating outstanding creativity and practical design capabilities, KWOK Hiu-ching, CHIANG Lam-lam, FUNG Ho-yi, CHIANG Yuen-hin and LEUNG Yu-ki, students from the Diploma of Vocational Education (Design and Print Media) Programme at Youth College, stood out in the competition. Their respective works, "World-Weary Cat" and "Digital Future," both honoured with the "Emerging Talent Award." Competing against talented young designers from Hong Kong and Taiwan, our two Youth College teams distinguished themselves by securing two major awards, fully showcasing the creative potential and professional competence of the next generation of young designers.
These outstanding achievements not only highlight the award-winning students' passion, dedication, and creativity in packaging design, but also reflects the program's remarkable success in nurturing industry-ready design talent who can effectively integrate theoretical knowledge with practical skills to meet evolving market needs. Congratulations to students, KWOK Hiu-ching, CHIANG Lam-lam, FUNG Ho-yi, CHIANG Yuen-hin and LEUNG Yu-ki on receiving this honour. We look forward to seeing them continue to unleash their creative talent, excel in the fields of design and print media, and achieve greater success in the future.
