The Chinese name Kai Yuen（"啟源"）, reflects a simple wish: to inspire young minds and bring talented people together. It marks the opening of an exciting new chapter for Futu while reinforcing the belief that talent is the driving force behind continuous innovation in the fintech industry. **Aligning with HKSAR’s Core Focus on Youth Development, Phase One of "FUTU NEXT" Reaches Collaboration Intent with HKU** The "FUTU NEXT" initiative actively aligns with the HKSAR Government’s **_First Five-Year Plan_** and the strategic priorities set forth in the latest **_Policy Address_**, which place youth development at the core of Hong Kong’s ambition to reinforce its status as an international financial and innovation and technology hub. Deeply rooted in Hong Kong, Futu recognizes that our future is closely intertwined with the city’s prosperity. By adopting a youth-centric approach, Futu aims to empower academic research, support student aspirations, and contribute corporate strength to building Hong Kong into a global magnet for top-tier talent. As the first milestone under "FUTU NEXT", Futu has signed a Memorandum of Understanding( MoU) on Intended Collaboration with The University of Hong Kong (HKU) to establish a strategic partnership spanning three key pillars: Industry-University-Research integration, education and talent development, and employment support. Under the partnership, Futu and HKU will advance research in cutting-edge, interdisciplinary fields, including quantum computing, AI and trusted AI agents, and FinTech, while donating to establish scholarships to recognize outstanding students. Furthermore, Futu will foster student innovation and entrepreneurship by providing expanded internship and career opportunities, empowering young talent to validate their ideas and gain hands-on experience in real-world business scenarios. Futu plans to expand this collaborative framework to more top-tier universities and leading institutions in Hong Kong over the next five years. **Establishing the "FUTU NEXT Foundation", Extending its Giving from Campus to Community** To extend its impact into the broader community, **Futu has marked its 14th anniversary by making a long-term civic commitment: the Company has officially initiated preparations to establish an independent FUTU NEXT Foundation**. Looking beyond university campuses, the Foundation will serve as an independent, professional platform dedicated to the wider social ecosystem. Its mandate will encompass supporting youth innovation, cross-disciplinary tech R&D, aiding underprivileged groups, and advancing sustainable, inclusive social development—representing Futu’s enduring blueprint for giving back to Hong Kong. **Mr. Leaf Hua Li, Futu’s Founder, Chairman, CEO & Chairman of the Technology Committee**, said: "Futu has been fortunate to be part of Hong Kong’s fintech development. We started in Hong Kong 14 years ago with a small team, a modest office and lines of code. Today, we serve tens of millions of users around the world. This city gave us room to grow and opened up opportunities for us. The HKSAR Government published Hong Kong’s First Five-Year Plan. The 2026 Policy Address also set out an integrated approach to education, science and technology, and talent development, alongside support for young people’s growth and employment. This long-term vision strengthens my belief that Hong Kong’s future depends on the creativity of each new generation." He added: "Attracting talented people matters. Helping them develop matters just as much. Starting with our university campuses, we want to turn our confidence in Hong Kong’s future into practical support for research, talent development and opportunities to learn through experience. Meanwhile, a Company’s growth depends on the society around it. As we continue to improve our technology and products, we also want to put the resources and capabilities we have built to broader use for the benefit of society. This is a commitment we intend to honour over the long term." **About Futu Holdings Limited** Futu Holdings Limited ("Futu") (Nasdaq: FUTU) is an advanced fintech company transforming the investing experience by offering fully digital financial services in multiple markets.
