Expectation towards Social Innovation and the SIE Fund

"People may have misunderstanding about seeking government funding. Many think that there are a lot of restrictive terms and conditions. The SIE Fund is in fact innovative and allowing greater flexibility in terms of its mode of operation. It is hoped that the SIE Fund will disprove the misperception. Meanwhile, we welcome individuals and organisations with the will and innovative ideas to address HK's poverty problem to approach us and to learn more about the Fund."
