We are delighted to announce that Ms Kadri Keung (BA, 2014), Co-Founder of Rhys Workshop Limited and Founder of Boundless, has been selected as the recipient of the Outstanding PolyU Alumni Award 2025 of SFT for Entrepreneurial Achievement. This award publicly recognises outstanding PolyU graduates for their professional achievements and significant contributions to the community and their alma mater.
As Co-founder and Design Director of Rhys Workshop Limited, Ms Keung applies her expertise to fashion design, branding, and commercialisation strategies to drive the company’s mission as a social enterprise. Her insights into branding and marketing play a key role in reshaping the stigma around inclusive wear, helping to foster dignity and well-being for the elderly, the disabled and their caregivers. Her work has had a meaningful impact both within the fashion industry and across communities. Ms Keung has also been instrumental in impact business by leveraging her network and building strong connections with corporates, NGOs, and community stakeholders. Through impactful collaborations, she has helped to expand both the business and inclusivity in the community, thus contributing meaningfully from an ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) perspective.
Ms Keung’s innovative work has earned her high international acclaim: Rhys Workshop captured the DFA Design for Asia Grand Award in 2019 and 2024 (for its Boundless collection) respectively, recognising its innovative work and leadership in the adaptive wear space. In 2022, Ms Keung was named one of the BBC 100 Women, a prestigious global recognition celebrating her leadership and dedication in advancing inclusive wear. These honours underscore her influence and credibility as an industry thought leader in inclusive fashion and social innovation.
Congratulations to Ms Keung for her remarkable contributions and achievements!
