About PBC
Where Can-do Minds Connect
Our Vision
At PBC, we believe solving the world’s most urgent challenges must begin at home. In Hong Kong, where resilience meets action, we see how local insight and grounded collaboration can unlock global impact.
Our role is to spark new thinking in philanthropy to help people act boldly and give meaningfully. We're here to make things happen.
Rooted in Hong Kong’s “can-do” spirit – pragmatic, inventive and determined – we draw on the city’s dynamism and The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust's unique societal role to reimagine what giving can achieve. This outlook keeps us grounded in what works, while staying open to what’s next.
We bring together doers and thinkers across sectors and regions to exchange insights and shape new approaches. With our flagship forum and year-round presence in regional and global dialogue, we foster rigorous, future-forward discourse that elevates philanthropy.
Through PBCx, we host targeted convenings and dialogues in Hong Kong and across Asia to keep ideas and relationships active between our flagship forums.
PBC Global extends this presence worldwide, by engaging in leading international gatherings, we ensure Asia’s voice is part of the global conversation.
While our perspective is global, we draw on our Asian roots and insights to spark fresh approaches to giving and unlocking new possibilities for collaboration and impact.
By convening people and fostering cross-cultural, cross-sector exchange, we create the conditions for new ideas and collaborations to emerge. With a forward-looking mindset, we invite others to lead, give, and imagine differently – locally, regionally, and globally.

In association with
Institute of Philanthropy
Rooted in the East for the World
The Institute of Philanthropy was established in September 2023 through a seed grant of HK$6.8 billion (US$870 million) from The Hong Kong Jockey Club and its Charities Trust. Established as an independent “think-fund-do” tank for China, Asia and beyond, IoP is dedicated to promoting philanthropic thought leadership and enhancing sector capabilities at local, regional and global levels in collaboration with fellow funders. It seeks to provide an Asia-based platform bringing global stakeholders together to promote the betterment of societies everywhere.
Our goal is to bridge regional and global expertise, while enhancing the effectiveness and impact of giving in Asia. We aim to strengthen philanthropy as a catalyst for socio-economic development across the region and unlock greater private capital potential for public good. We aspire to enable Eastern voices to shape global philanthropic discourse.
IoP funds strategic initiatives that advance national development priorities, while strengthening global preparedness for health, climate-related, and natural emergencies.
We convene to foster collaboration and learning among thought leaders, philanthropists, decision-makers, sharing holders and beneficiaries. We aim to strengthen institutional capacity building across the sector and champion innovative approaches for Asian philanthropy.
