Housing management professionals have been working hard to enhance harmonious, well-managed living and working environments for all citizens over the years. Their contribution and outstanding performance should be recognised and made known to a wider public. With social unrests and pandemic challenges, housing management professionals' dedicated efforts were especially profound and important for the community. Thus, HKIH launched the first HKIH Elite Awards in 2020 to reward the outstanding contributions of members and industry practitioners. By bringing together leading corporate executives, professionals, and academic institutions, as well as industry leaders, the HKIH Elite Awards offers an excellent opportunity for local housing management individuals and teams to be recognised for their professionalism and achievement.

Two New Award Categories for the Third Edition of HKIH Elite Awards In this edition of the Awards, HKIH is excited to introduce two new categories crafted to meet the demands of the modern era: 1) "Best ESG Team" Award, designed to recognize teams that excel in incorporating and executing ESG principles in their daily operations; and 2) "Best Safety Team" Award, aimed at honoring teams that effectively implement precautionary safety control measures and demonstrate superior safety management performance in their day-to-day management activities.

Ms Patricia Cheng, HKIH President, commented, "The previous editions of the HKIH Elite Awards have received unanimous acclaim from the industry, academia, and relevant government bodies. Now in its third edition, we aim to keep pace with the times by introducing two new categories focused on themes that are of paramount importance today: ESG and Safety. These additions are designed to encourage participation from more professional teams and simultaneously elevate the industry's commitment to these critical areas."

Ms Rosita Wong, Organising Committee Chairperson of HKIH Elite Awards 2024, said, "It is a great honor to serve as the Chairperson of the Organizing Committee for this year's HKIH Elite Awards. In the new normal following the pandemic, housing management professionals have worked with diligence and perseverance while continuing to embrace technology to keep abreast of the latest developments.
