Shouta Hayashi

The 2nd annual gathering of the Fung Tokyo chapter was held on 16th July 2019 at the Go Global center located in the University of Tokyo. With the attendance of four guests including Mr. Kai-man Wong and Ms. JennyAnn Chan from the Victor and William Fung Foundation as well as 29 Tokyo based Fung scholars, this event was very successful, and everyone had a wonderful time. The event started with a heartwarming welcoming remark from Professor Yanagi and encouraging speech from Mr. Wong about the Foundation and activities of other local chapters.

Welcoming remark from Professor Yanagi

Two scholars gave their appreciation speeches regarding the generous financial funding from the Victor and William Fung Foundation that supported their precious experiences of studying abroad to a great extent. This was followed by the introduction of the Tokyo chapter from a committee member to encourage everyone to get actively involved in and to take advantage of its activities.
