The Start‑up Saturday winning team ULinks has achieved a significant milestone by delivering a practical, student‑led solution to meet the summer storage needs of the Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) community.

In collaboration with SF Supply Chain, ULinks launched an affordable and convenient storage service for students preparing for the summer break. The initiative received an enthusiastic response, with close to 400 boxes of students’ belongings successfully collected and securely stored at SF Storage, all offered at a highly competitive price.

The success of this initiative was made possible through the strong support of Village CARE and Prof. Howard Ling, which enabled ULinks to provide convenient and direct service for student residents. By integrating logistics expertise with on‑campus access, ULinks ensured a seamless and user‑friendly experience for students.

This achievement highlights the power of student entrepreneurship, effective corporate collaboration, and real‑world problem solving. It also demonstrates how innovative ideas developed through Start‑up Saturday can generate tangible impact for the campus community.

In recognition of their creativity and impact, ULinks is the recipient of the Innovation Creative Award from Village CARE, affirming the team’s excellence in transforming ideas into meaningful solutions.
