Dear Friends of HKBN

HKBN Proudly Appoints CY Chan as Chief Talent & Purpose Officer

We are excited to announce that we have appointed Chun Yu (aka CY) Chan as Chief Talent & Purpose Officer (“CT&PO”), overseeing strategy and development of our Talent culture, Talent engagement, core purpose and corporate social investment. As a home-grown Talent, CY’s appointment, which follows a journey of growth across many different roles and responsibilities over his 9 years with HKBN, will further drive the evolution of our Talent culture and leverage our Talent advantage to achieve strong business growth in a purposeful way.

Driving our Co-Ownership culture

Our unique Talent culture and core purpose have played a crucial role in pioneering our industry-leading growth. As an advocate of entrepreneurial thinking, CY has helped spur performance by implementing innovative skin-in-the-game schemes like Co-Ownership, where our Talents voluntarily invest their personal savings into HKBN shares for intrinsic motivation and interest alignment to deliver extraordinary business results.

A transforming Talent force guided by purpose

After a series of mergers and acquisitions, which include 6 leading telecom and ICT (Information and Communications Technology) brands, we have now transformed into a premier one-stop integrated telecommunications and technology services provider in Asia, with 6,000 Talents in Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, mainland China and Macau. To reflect our expanded presence in different parts of Asia, we have recently evolved our core purpose from “Make our Hong Kong a Better Place to Live” to “Make our Home a Better Place to Live”, and CY is ready to lead all HKBN Talents with one common mission to improve society wherever we operate or call home.

Since first joining HKBN in 2011 as a Learning & Development Manager, CY has grown to lead our Talent acquisition, Talent engagement & development, and administration efforts. In 2017, he was given further responsibilities to lead our corporate social investment.

Our Co-Owner and Group CEO NiQ said, “We are a Talent-obsessed company and believe we must first WOW our Talents before they can WOW our customers and other stakeholders. As Chief Talent & Purpose Officer, CY will go far beyond what a legacy head of human resources does.”

Our Co-Owner and CT&PO CY said, “My entry into the Management Committee sends a clear message that our unique Talent culture and core purpose are pivotal to our growth. Through a holistic range of Talent-first and purpose-driven initiatives, we aspire to make HKBN the best company to work for in Asia. This will help us attract and cultivate the very best Talents, ensuring our business growth and contributions to the community well into the future.”
